Nine Star Burden - Chapter 625
Chapter 625: The end?
Chinese Valentine’s Day, wishing everyone happiness. There was still one more chapter at eight in the evening.
…
In the cave of death in the land of Yanzhao.
Hong long long …
A series of deafening explosions rang out, and it was as if the entire underground cave was shaking.
Song chunxi held the blade in front of her face and retreated quickly.
Xia Yan held onto her giant sword tightly and stood in front of Han Jiangxue, afraid that she would suddenly appear.
“Jiang Xiao!!!” Han Jiangxue let out a shrill cry. She watched helplessly as her younger brother’s body flickered, but he didn’t return. Where else could he have gone?
He charged into the blast of the explosion?
The sound of silence prevented the release of any star techniques. People could vaguely hear the crisp sound of bones breaking.
It didn’t break into pieces, but pieces.
Hualalalala …
As the blast of the explosion passed by, the flame engine rushed forward rapidly under Han Jiangxue’s control. Everyone hurriedly looked into the distance, only to see that Jiang Xiao’s clothes were a little messy and there was a pile of broken bones under his feet.
The team hurriedly stepped forward, and Jiang Xiao shook his dizzy head and staggered a little. He raised his hand and admitted his mistake.”Mine … The problem was that he was too late to cast silence, and he had to throw it away … It’s out of the bead of death. ”
Jiang Xiao then sat down on the ground and covered his dizzy head with one hand.
He had diamond-level endurance and was extremely resistant to any attack-type star techniques. Of course, Jiang Xiao didn’t really faint, but he did feel dizzy.
At this moment, his head was spinning and he even felt a little nauseated, which reminded him of the earth-shattering explosion on planet George during the World Cup.
There was no doubt that the explosion of planet George was more powerful. After all, it was a STAR technique that was executed with life.
However, the Desperado’s bead of death was even more disgusting. The explosion-type star techniques had a stun effect on humans, and this STAR technique even had an additional stun effect.
The bead of death was the STAR technique of the Desperados.
The Desperados were also the second type of creatures in the cave of death. They looked exactly the same as the Desperados, but their star techniques were completely different.

Jiang Xiao’s feet were covered in star power and he stomped on the huge skull, after which he picked up the star bead that was bouncing back and forth in the skull.
A message also came from the internal star map:
“Desperado star bead (platinum quality)
1. Bead of death: throw an explosive bead of death with a stun effect. (Platinum quality, upgradeable)
2. Body of death: enhance one’s own defense, strengthen one’s resistance to explosion-type star techniques, become immune to dizziness and passive skills, and does not need to be activated. (Platinum quality, upgradeable)
Do you wish to absorb them together?”
The team rushed forward and Han Jiangxue said in a cold voice,””This is a team battle.”
Jiang Xiao raised his hand again to express his apology. According to the team’s combat strategy, he should have retreated and used silence to control the situation while Han Jiangxue attacked instead of rushing into the blast of the explosion like in the individual competition.
Han Jiangxue frowned slightly. After reprimanding him, she walked towards Jiang Xiao, squatted down, and asked softly,””What’s wrong?”
Jiang Xiao said,”nothing much. I’m just used to being reckless.”
However, Han Jiangxue insisted stubbornly,”no, you’re always the most clear-headed one when you’re fighting. Tell me what happened. You want to end the battle quickly?”
Jiang Xiao smiled wryly and thought to himself, she’s really sensitive and smart.
Jiang Xiao didn’t want to end the battle quickly, but he was rather touched.
Jiang Xiao said softly,”I was wrong. There won’t be a next time.”
As he spoke, he threw the Desperado star bead to song chunxi.
Han Jiangxue frowned slightly and reached out to gently tidy Jiang Xiao’s clothes.
Although he had rushed in, he wasn’t too reckless. He went first with silence and then flashed after. It looked like he had rushed into the blast of the explosion, but in fact, it was more like he had dodged the attack of the explosion. Otherwise, his clothes wouldn’t be here.
“Do you need to rest?” Han Jiangxue asked softly.
Jiang Xiao shook his head.”There’s no need. Let’s go. We don’t have much time.”
Then … What moved Jiang Xiao?
That was because Jiang Xiao, the decoy, saw a small life in the snowfield.
In the winding and deep tunnel at the foot of the mountain, he baited Jiang Xiao to follow Hu Wei and entered his residence.
After that, Jiang Xiao, the decoy, saw a beautiful scene.
In this desolate and desolate snowfield, he actually saw a child sleeping soundly.
The cold Stone bed was covered with thick white Ghoul fur, and the child was also wrapped in clothes and bedding made of white Ghoul fur.
A woman in her thirties was sitting on the side of the bed, looking at the sleeping child with a gentle expression. Her fingers were curled up slightly, and she was gently caressing his smooth little face.
At this moment, Jiang Xiao also knew why Hu Wei still paid attention to his image in such a life. Perhaps it was not only because of his wife, but also because of the child.
Jiang Xiao recognized the woman. She had a beautiful name: Azure blue.
On the paper, she was only 21 years old. She was young and beautiful, with short hair and a pair of eyes that seemed to be shining.
At this time, she was 27 years old and was already a mother. Her long hair hung down behind her back and was tied up with a white woolen hair tie. She was also in the prime of her youth, and her face was glowing with motherly love.
Canglan turned around and was about to ask why the hunt had been so quick, but she saw an unfamiliar figure standing beside her husband.
The brand-new night Watch uniform made canglan’s lips tremble slightly.
No one would think that Jiang Xiao was being used as bait to save them. The couple only knew that another brother was going to repeat their mistakes.
However, in this lonely world, seeing a living person again was a feeling that ordinary people could not understand.
“You … Alright. ” Cang LAN stammered. It was only two words, but there was a gap in between.
“Hello, you guys are very strong.” A muffled voice came from the mask.
In fact, Jiang Xiao had always had some doubts. If Hu Wei lived alone, Jiang Xiao would definitely think that Hu Wei would bring him to this house after confirming his identity.
However, if his wife and children were here, wouldn’t it be a reckless decision to let Jiang Xiao in?
After all, Jiang Xiao was still wearing a mask. Although there was no difference in essence, at least on the surface, there was a barrier.
Cang LAN smiled gently and seemed to have a good impression of Jiang Xiao.
Beside Jiang Xiao, Hu Wei tilted his head secretly and moved very slightly.
Canglan blinked his eyes twice as well. It was a normal blink, and no one could tell that it was a secret signal.
Was this the legendary mutual understanding between husband and wife?
The decoy Jiang Xiao, who had the STAR technique perception, was very sensitive. However, he wouldn’t even consider the secret signal for such an ordinary action.
Hu Wei gently patted Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and gestured to the outside of the cave.
Canglan also stood up and followed the two out of the room, walking through the long tunnel in front of the door.
There was no need for a door here. Regardless of whether it was the White Ghoul witch or the White Ghoul, their huge bodies would not be able to squeeze into such a narrow tunnel.
To Jiang Xiao’s surprise, although the cave tunnel was deep, the ventilation was good. It seemed that Hu Wei had put in a lot of effort into his home.
The three of them walked through the tunnel and made a half-circle before entering another stone house. This stone house actually had four “skylights …”
A few beams of light shone through the small holes and shot down from above, making Jiang Xiao feel rather amazed.
“Brother, tell me your story.” Hu Wei sat in front of a stone table and gestured to a small stone seat on the side.
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, asked,””The word ‘Zheng’ in the treehouse was written by you two.”
“Mm …” Hu Wei pondered for a moment and said,”no, not the two of us.”
Jiang Xiao was instantly dumbfounded. They didn’t write it? There was another couple?
Hu Wei turned to look at Cang LAN and said,””She and I …”
Jiang Xiao also turned to look at Cang LAN, only to discover that she was secretly watching over the child sleeping soundly in the stone house next door through the hole in the stone wall.
Hu Wei sighed and continued.”She and I searched here for a long time. We walked through thousands of mountains and rivers. Maybe a year, maybe two years. We couldn’t move anymore.”
“Hehe.” Cang Lan’s smile was a little bitter. He turned around and said softly,”there is no sun or sunset here. In the beginning, we could still feel the passage of time, but after that, it was all gone. We don’t even know how many years we have been here.”
Cang LAN looked at Jiang Xiao and said,””Do you know how we feel the time now?”
“Huh?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Canglan turned his head again and looked at his child through the small hole in the stone wall.””He grew up day by day. The first time he turned over, the first time he crawled, the first time he opened his mouth to speak …”
Jiang Xiao felt bitter.
As bait, he was in this eternally-same scene, so he naturally couldn’t feel the passage of time. However, his real body was outside, and he clearly knew that a few hours and a few days had passed.
“Brother, what year is it now?” Hu Wei asked in a low voice.
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, replied, in September 2017.
“It’s already 2017?”
Cang LAN laughed with a tinge of sadness and said to Jiang Xiao,””One day, you’ll also forget about time.”
Jiang Xiao remained silent and did not respond.
Feeling the pressure in the air, Hu Wei hurriedly said,””Lan lan and I were looking for the exit here, but we couldn’t find it. One day, just like you, we saw the wooden house built by humans. At that time, lan lan was pregnant, so … We stayed. ”
“When did that happen?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Canglan looked at the sleeping child next door and said softly,””Perhaps, it was two years ago.”
Jiang Xiao thought for a moment.”Before the child was born, you guys were looking for the exit here. Did you guys look for it for two years?”
Hu Wei’s smile was filled with helplessness.””Maybe, and we’ve never gone back.”
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
Play your sister!
How am I supposed to go home like this?
The couple never turned back. They walked in the same direction for two years, but they couldn’t get out of the snowfield, let alone find an exit.
Hu Wei spoke again and said something that shocked Jiang Xiao.””When you have walked long enough and far enough, you will discover a fact.”
“What?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Hu Wei said,”I seem to know him.”
“What do you mean?” Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
Hu Wei: “when we crossed one Snow Mountain after another, and passed through one forest after another, we finally found that we were going in circles.”
Canglan’s voice became slightly excited, as if he did not agree with Hu Wei’s idea. The two of them seemed to have had differences for a long time. “We’re not going in circles! We’re not heading in the wrong direction! How could the direction of the setting sun change?
This world looks real; however, everything is illusionary except for us. This world is pieced together by many similar scenes!”
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded!
Cang Lan’s words completely subverted Jiang Xiao’s understanding of the world.
