Chapter 128: Love Welfare Center
The god who had shed his last drop of blood for the believers closed his eyes wearily, and he slept peacefully beside the believers who had been revitalized and healed.
The withered vines turned into a black sleeping quilt over it, and the young, first-follower god had a very faint, imperceptible smile on his lips, like a child dreaming after getting his favorite toy.
It was all fairy godmother magic, for the clock had just struck twelve midnight.
------
Liu Jiayi woke up choking and coughing on the smell of psycho bleach, her face pale and almost transparent from the loss of blood, and even just after waking up the little girl instantly regained her guard and took out the poison and aimed it in the direction where she had heard the voice.
Because the time for visualization props has expired, Liu Jiayi can't see anything now.
"It's me, Bai Liu." Bai Liu was calm even when Liu Jiayi threateningly compared his neck with poison, he opened his hands to show that he's harmless, "You're still bleeding, so I wanted to take care of it for you."
Liu Jiayi withdrew her poison in a bit of a daze, as if she hadn't recovered from the news that Bai Liu had survived.
At that time she had already planned to break the bank, just to try to fight once, but she didn't expect to really save Bai Liu down, and the next thing she felt was the bandaged wound on her arm, and she tightened her hand slightly, gripping the row of cuts on her arm that still stung.
"Your life level should be low already, don't you want to restore yourself?" Bai Liu asked.
Liu Jiayi pursed her lips and didn't say anything, her healing skill cd had indeed arrived, and Bai Liu was right, because she was desperately trying to bleed to save Bai Liu, her life value was already very low, only 5 points, and now sitting on the ground there was a kind of coldness that made her want to shiver coming out from her body.
Liu Jiayi did not answer him, Bai Liu also did not care about Liu Jiayi, he turned his head to bandage the wound of the still sleeping little Mu Ke, just after bandaging, Liu Jiayi's hand suddenly held the corner of his coat, Bai Liu slightly surprised to look back, Liu Jiayi closed her eyes, her trembling eyelashes were full of water droplets, her face was full of dirty blood stains, but her body suddenly emitted a very sacred and white halo, from Liu Jiayi's body like water diffused to Bai Liu and Mu Ke's body. Liu Jiayi closed her eyes, her trembling eyelashes were covered with water beads, her face was covered with dirty blood stains, but her body suddenly emitted a very holy and white halo, from Liu Jiayi's body to Bai Liu and Mu Ke's body like water.
The halo of light was warm, pure white, so that one couldn't help but relax tense muscles and nerves, and in the center of the halo the little girl held in her arms a bottle of mercury-like glittering liquid in a long, thin, Bai Liu palm-length, embossed glass bottle.
Liu Jiayi placed the bottle of liquid in Bai Liu's hand, her voice raspy, "Antidote, you and Mu Ke drink it, no need to save it for me, top up your blood bars."
Just as Bai Liu was about to ask her why she gave them the drink herself, Liu Jiayi seemed to feel cold, curled up and hugged her knees, burying her head in her lap.
Her voice was muffled, "Both you and Mu Ke's panels are not as high as mine, the healing skill of the antidote, the lower the level of the personal panel the better the effect of returning blood, you guys are better off drinking it than I am, and both of you are going to be emptied out of your life value, I still have life value, and I also have skills, I am more resistant to living than you guys in this game."
"Why did you give it to us?" Bai Liu asked anyway.
"Return yours." Liu Jiayi's head was still buried in her knees, and she didn't look up as she said this without thinking.
Bai Liu, on the other hand, gets it.
Little Bai Liu saved her, Mu Ke saved her, he saved her, and she remembers it all, maybe skeptical, maybe puzzled, maybe in disbelief.
But she does remember them all.
"I thought you'd hate me, you guessed that I used Liu Huai to get you that time outside your church, right?" Bai Liu inquired thoughtfully.
Liu Jiayi still didn't look up, and she gave a nasal hmmm.
Bai Liu looked down at the twirls in Liu Jiayi's withered yellow hair, "Then why did you fight to the death to bleed to save me when you clearly knew that I had lied to you and was using you?"
Liu Jiayi asked him, "What about you? Why did you risk your life to save me?"
Bai Liu puts it succinctly, "Deal."
Liu Jiayi finally raised her head, her eyes reddening, "Because you just saved me."
Bai Liu and Liu Jiayi, who was sobbing quietly, looked at each other longingly, wordlessly.
This little girl has a pair of gray eyes that can't see the world, and when she raises her head to "see" people in this way, there is a kind of stubborn and lonely fragility, like a fish peeping into the muddy water to see the birds on the shore, but not being looked at by anyone, but when you look directly at this little fish, you will find that this little girl's eyes can talk, and she is saying Whoever saved me, I'll pay you back, I don't owe you.
I'm going to settle the score with the world, with everyone in the world, and see where I went wrong.
Let's see how long my little bitchy ass can struggle to survive.
Bai Liu handed the antidote bottle back, he looked and sounded calm, "I got the Blood Ganoderma, I've cleared the level, I don't need to return any life points, you don't need to return anything to me because someone else did it for you, just leave some of the antidote for Mu Ke."
"The rest, I think you need it more." Bai Liu extended the antidote bottle to Liu Jiayi's face, "Your life value is also very low, drink it at ease, I'll be there if anything happens, I promised Liu Huai that I would take you out."
Liu Jiayi's dry, cracked lips parted slightly, her chin resting on her shrunken knees, a tiny mass, her head lifted in an arc of wary, suspicious unease, she blinked to hold back the emotions that welled up, pursed her lips and reached for the antidote bottle, but both of her hands were bruised, and her hands trembled as she picked it up, almost dropping it.
"You have a wound on your hand." Bai Liu steadily caught the bottle that fell and reached it to Liu Jiayi's mouth again, "Just like this I'll feed it to you."
Liu Jiayi gently inhaled and exhaled, she opened her mouth and before she could drink, a drop of liquid dripped from the bottle.
One drop, two drops, tears fell in the antidote, Liu Jiayi do not know who said, tears seem to be the human emotion venting poison, fall into the antidote also do not know whether it will make the antidote become ineffective.
Liu Jiayi gripped the top of the bottle, tears flowing freely as she choked on the antidote that had healed her, whimpering, "It's so humiliating to drink like this ...... like a ......"
"Stray dogs, right?" Bai Liu hooked up the corners of his mouth to smile, "Why is your mantra the same as your brother's, stray dogs are quite good, why do you all treat stray dogs so poorly?"
Thinking of Liu Huai, Liu Jiayi cried more and more, tears and snot flowed together, crying body twitching: "Stray dogs where good ah! It's dirty and disliked by people! Everybody hates stray dogs! Everyone hates stray dogs!"
Bai Liu touched Liu Jiayi's head and seemed to find it a bit funny that Liu Jiayi was crying so hard because of this point.
He said, "A homeless person wouldn't hate a stray dog."
Liu Jiayi raised his head tearfully.
"When the game is over, take your brother away from me, a vagabond." Bai Liu lowered her eyes and said in a very soft voice, "When the game is over and done with for good, neither you nor he will have to wander anymore."
------
Little Mu Ke woke up and also drank the antidote, Liu Jiayi did not drink much, this little girl has a very stubborn strength in her bones, must be left to Bai Liu, Bai Liu topped a three-point life value is not too safe, also went along with Liu Jiayi drank, and now Bai Liu and little Mu Ke are both full blood, Liu Jiayi do not know how much blood, ask her how much blood, she did not say, just said that her blood level is already not easy to die. Liu Jiayi doesn't know how much blood she has, so when I ask her, she won't tell me, she just says that she can't die easily with this amount of blood, so don't worry about her.
Riding out the night, Bai Liu moved away from this baptismal font, revealing the tunnels below, he clapped his hands and let out a breath, "At this point in time, the deformed children can't go out through this exit of the church in the tunnels, so they'll go out through the one at the hospital, there shouldn't be a large number of deformed children in the tunnels at this point in time... ..."
"More doesn't matter." Liu Jiayi stood in front of Bai Liu with the bottle of poison in her hand, her voice still hoarse, "I'll open the way."
Bai Liu slightly raised one eyebrow, "Okay, I'll go and bring Little Miao Gaojiang with me."
Little Miao Gaojiang still had a soul agreement with Bai Liu on his body, after Big Miao Gaojiang died, Bai Liu only needed to fulfill this agreement to get Little Miao Gaojiang's soul bill, for this reason Bai Liu saved Little Miao Gaojiang's life and fed him some antidote to preserve his bloodstain.
Liu Jiayi could have guessed this, she didn't react at all when she saw Bai Liu going to carry Miao Gaojiang.
Mu Ke is not as calm as she is, her eyes are red with anger, shaking hands and pointing at Bai Liu: "Why did you save him? Are you stupid! He closed the door of the church and let everyone else die!"
"He will die even if he doesn't close it." Bai Liu faintly swept a glance at Mu Ke, "Churches have no sheltering effect on us adults, and we'd be dead even if we came in."
Little Mu Ke was still holding his breath, but Liu Jiayi had already jumped down through the passageway opening. Little Mu Ke was startled, and Bai Liu said, "Follow her in."
The passage was still dark, stuffy and humid, occasionally something would rustle and crawl over, but before Bai Liu could get close to them, it was eliminated by Liu Jiayi, who was a step ahead of them in searching for sound and locating the target, Bai Liu followed Liu Jiayi, squinting at the little girl-- Liu Jiayi's natural blindness gives her an advantage in the darkness, relying on sound to find the target of attack, this little girl is even faster than the monster.
When he reached a place, as if he heard the sound of fingers snapping in the dirt, Liu Jiayi tried to attack again, but little Mu Ke suddenly screamed, "Wait!"
Bai Liu and Liu Jiayi both looked over.
Little Mu Ke stared at Bai Liu's face as he breathed quickly through the passage, "Little Bai Liu ...... Little Bai Liu lay here before he sent us up, you promised to take him away from here."
They were under the mushroom bush to turn out the little Bai Liu has been limp and immobile, the battle in the morning is too consuming, this child has completely lost the ability to move, and was accelerated alienation, Bai Liu pressed on his body, have a kind of sunken, soft mud-like texture - small Bai Liu is is rapidly rotting.
Fourteen-year-old Bai Liu is like any other deformed child turned monster, rapidly rotting away into a puddle of slime in the hidden tunnels beneath the orphanage.
Little Mu Ke looked at Bai Liu nervously, Bai Liu was carrying a Miao Gaojiang on his back, it would be a bit cumbersome to bring along a dead little Bai Liu, according to this man's theory of uselessness, Little Mu Ke was a bit apprehensive and afraid that he would leave little Bai Liu here again like he did in the morning, he asked back cautiously, "You promised him to take him out of here, you can't leave him here. promised to take him out of here, you can't leave him here."
Bai Liu inclined his head slightly, his eyes downcast with nothing on his face as he looked at Mu Ke.
Mu Ke was getting more and more nervous, his back was tensed, "I know he's just a corpse now, but still, we can't leave him here, you promised him!"
Bai Liu suddenly laughed softly as he wrapped Miao Gaojiang's limbs around himself with bandages, then squatted down to look at little Bai Liu.
Little Bai Liu's face already has corpse spots, he is like a child who did not sleep too peacefully, the moment before he died, he still wrinkled his eyebrows, but the corners of his mouth have a little smile, is a somewhat peculiar expression.
"You see, you have a friend too, little Bai Liu." Bai Liu's tone was so light that he didn't know who he seemed to be talking to, "Not a con artist with an agenda like me, Bai Liu, but the real deal, your friend."
"Your luck will change."
Bai Liu Jr. didn't open his eyes, his chest calm and undulating, corpse spots growing diffusely from where his heart had been.
Little Mu Ke watched strangely as Bai Liu muttered to himself, and then Bai Liu stooped down and picked up the body of little Bai Liu, who stood up a little shakily as he was pressed down by the two children one in front of him and the other behind him, but stood up nonetheless, and Bai Liu rolled unconsciously on his limbs in his arms, and little Bai Liu's head rolled out from where it had been on Bai Liu's shoulders, and he wrapped one hand around it and hugged it back, stuck in the crook of his arm, sleeping like a baby.
Bai Liu walks out of the orphanage one step at a time, clutching his fourteen-year-old body.
