Chapter 228 Confused Xichen

Lu Mo and Xichen told Yi Moli the whole story. When Yi Moli heard the original intention of Xi Chen's actions, she lowered her head and meditated for a while, then became very interested in Lu Mo.According to some judgment methods that Yi Moli told them before, Yi Moli and Xichen have basically confirmed that the other party is their own family, but Lu Mo's current situation makes them very puzzled.

"Forget it, I'll talk about it later if I don't understand it for the time being. You two should stay here for a while, and a welcome ceremony will be held in the village later."

Yi Moli finally gave up on searching for the root of Lu Mo's kinship aura, and asked Lu Mo and Xichen to take a break. She will leave temporarily to prepare with the people in the village. When night falls later, the welcoming ceremony will begin. She called the two of them again.

After Yi Moli left, only Lu Mo and Xichen were left in the small building. After a moment of silence, Lu Mo turned his gaze to Xichen.Xichen has been fiddling with the two split double-edged swords in his hand, combining them into a handleless sword, and then splitting them into separate double-edged swords. Lu Mo can see that Xichen has something on his mind after repeated loading and unloading.Because Yi Moli told them just now that the same family contains the meaning of blood connection.

"Xichen, are you really sure that they are of the same race as you? After all, they told you the determination methods. If they..."

"No, no... Do you know? Even if I can't detect the kind of family atmosphere, I can already feel a strange feeling in them, which makes me feel at ease... makes me feel safe... A very warm feeling... like family..."

Xichen continued to play with the weapon in her hand as she spoke. She felt very complicated in her heart now. A person who has been on the battlefield since she was a child and lived on her own, suddenly discovered that in this world, except for her father whom she had never seen , as well as the mother who was lost when she was young, and she has other relatives. After Xichen accepted this feeling at a little bit, it became hard to let go.

"Actually, it's not surprising that you are their kin. Although you don't have those strange abilities like Emily, maybe your abilities are very secretive, like..."

As Lu Mo spoke, he tugged at the thread connecting his and Xichen's clothes, and Xichen immediately recalled what Lu Mo meant.Although she can't use strange abilities like Emily, she will not be harmed by any Zhilong's magic attack, and she can recover quickly even if she is seriously injured.If it is said that Yi Moli's ability is attacking, then Xichen's ability is fully reflected in defense.

"Lu Mo, do you know? Although I didn't feel the breath of the same race before, when I saw you later, especially after feeding you my blood, I could always feel a kindness in you. feel."

Xichen assembled the split double-edged swords into a handleless sword. Xichen put down the weapons in his hands and looked up at Lu Mo's eyes.

"Lu Mo, I think you have as many secrets as I do, right? Just like me, I may be the only person in the corps who has not injected the advanced stock solution. I keep telling others that my weird brute force is the advanced stock solution. Come on, but in fact... I don't even know what's going on with me, just like the first time we encountered Zhilong, in fact, I can save everyone in your team, but I dare not expose..."

Lu Mo listened quietly to Xichen's narration. Lu Mo knew that she needed to talk to her now, but Lu Mo didn't expect her to talk about the secrets she didn't want others to know.According to Xichen, the reason why she fell in love with herself at the time was only because she was unconscious at the time, coupled with that faint sense of intimacy, and Xichen even thought of silence afterwards, but she didn't do it, but decided to feed herself and drink her. of blood.

"I didn't tell you before, my blood can quickly recover from injuries, but if I can't bear it, I will quickly age and die in the next few days."

After Xichen finished speaking, she stopped looking at Lu Mo, but lowered her head with her lips pursed.Lu Mo could see that Xichen's eyes were full of guilt and a hint of self-mockery.

"I didn't die, and thanks to you, I gained some of your abilities while my body was still there."

"Yeah...not only did you not die, but after that, I found that the intimacy you gave me became more obvious..."

After Xichen finished speaking, she sighed softly. Lu Mo knew that the intimacy Xichen mentioned was actually similar to the kindred spirit that Yi Moli mentioned.If Yi Moli and the others felt to Xichen as blood-related relatives, then she felt like friends to Xichen.Maybe this is why she always helps him. When Lu Mo thought of the dangerous missions in the past, Xichen would always be with him.

"Lu Mo, what's your secret? When you said that your body was still there, why...why did your current body turn into that gray mist?"

"I... can't explain it in words. In order to survive in Sin City, I used a nano-weapon called a snare, and then..."

Lu Mo told about himself, and even told Xichen about many things that even Lianyou, who fled back to the Pure Land together, didn't know.As for the reason why Lu Mo said these things, Lu Mo himself didn't know why, maybe it was because he knew Xichen's secret, or maybe it was because he regarded Xichen as a friend, or he just wanted to Confidential... Lu Mo himself didn't know.

Lu Mo and Xichen remained silent for a while, and then spoke a few words from time to time. Although they didn't talk much, they knew that what they said to each other were words that had been accumulated in their hearts for a long time.Just like Lu Mo's confusion in the past, Xichen's confusion now, Xichen's ability not to show in front of others, Lu Mo's body made of gray mist, the two talked a lot, until they talked about the city lord, the two of them Finally, there are different positions and differences.

"You two little guys, didn't I tell you to rest? It's dark outside, come on, the ceremony prepared to welcome you is about to start, come with me."

Just when Lu Mo and Xichen were arguing and ignoring each other because of their different views on the city lord, Yi Moli appeared in front of them, and she wanted to take them to the welcome ceremony.According to Yi Moli, everyone in the village will come, and everyone in the village made preparations together. Naturally, Lu Mo and Xichen could not disappoint her kindness, and hurriedly got up and followed Yi Moli one after the other.

After leaving Yi Moli's small building, in the center of the village not far away, a bonfire has already been added to the open space in front of the large wooden houses. There are about twenty or thirty villagers surrounding the bonfire.Yi Moli took Lu Mo and Xichen to join the crowd, Yi Moli took Xichen to the campfire, and Lu Mo followed them all the time.Emily signaled the villagers to be quiet, and she was about to preside over the welcoming ceremony.

"Woo~ woo~ woo~"

The villagers around the bonfire all closed their eyes and clasped their hands in front of their chests, as if they were praying, and hummed softly, in a language that Lu Mo could not understand at all.Lu Mo and Xichen looked at each other, and they stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do.

"Fireflies, Lu Mo, look, there are fireflies flying out of the bonfire."

"Those little green light spots don't seem to be living things..."

Following Xichen's prompt, Lu Mo soon noticed the green light spots flying in the sky in the campfire.Xichen said that it was a firefly, but Lu Mo didn't think it looked like a living thing.There were more and more small green light spots, and soon they danced around the bonfire, and then those small green light spots split into two strands and flew towards Lu Mo and Xichen.

After those small green light spots approached Lu Mo, they began to dance around Lu Mo non-stop, giving Lu Mo the feeling that it was very similar to the gray fog, except that the gray fog would not emit green light.Lu Mo glanced sideways at Xichen beside him. After those green light spots approached Xichen, they quickly circled around Xichen. From time to time, green light spots began to fall on Xichen. No matter how close those light spots were to Lu Mo, none of them stayed on Lu Mo.

"Welcome home to your children living far away, let's get together in a quiet night under the starry sky."

As the softly chanted ballads from the villagers ended, those green light spots also disappeared.Yi Moli walked up to Xichen and Lu Mo, pulled them together and cheered, and the villagers also cheered loudly. Even if the welcome ceremony was successfully completed, it would be time to entertain the two of them. This is the highlight of tonight.

The villagers are very close to Xichen, and they can only be regarded as enthusiastic towards Lu Mo, but Lu Mo is not surprised at all.After all, Xichen is the same family as they said, and he is at most the bearer of the same family breath.However, by the light of the bonfire, Lu Mo found that most of the villagers were women, while the number of men was relatively small, and the number of children was even smaller. Liweida was the oldest, and the other three looked like they were only seven or eight years old. look.

The welcome banquet of the villagers lasted until late at night, and after they enjoyed themselves to the fullest, they reluctantly said goodbye to Xichen.Under the arrangement of Yi Moli, Lu Mo and Xi Chen lived on the second floor of the small building in Yi Moli's house.Different from the last time when the two met Yi Moli for the first time, this time Yi Moli did not arrange the two of them in the same room, and they lived opposite each other on the second floor of the small building.

Before dawn, Lu Mo heard a noise from Xichen at the opposite door. Lu Mo soon saw Xichen walk out of the small building from the window.Xichen stood alone in front of the small building, looking at the dazzling bright line in the sky.Lu Mo thought for a while, pushed open the window, and jumped down from the second floor of the small building. Lu Mo walked over to Xichen and stood still.

"I can see that you are confused. I don't think I can help you much. However, we can stay for a while so that you can think slowly."

"Yeah, I'm very confused... I can feel the warmth of relatives from the villagers here. They hope that I can stay, but..."

Xichen looked at the sun that was gradually emerging, her face was full of confusion, Lu Mo could see that she really wanted to stay, but there seemed to be some people or things in Sin City that made her have to go back, and she was thinking of going back for herself. Stay and bewildered.
