Nine Star Burden

Chapter 633: The river of the Yangtze River, the dawn of dawn

Just as the military plane that Jiang Xiao was on was about to land in kangkgold, the decoy Jiang Xiao was attending a family banquet in the snowfield dimension above jiannan Village.

In a small room in the cave tunnel, there were pieces of roasted meat on the stone slab that were sizzling and emitting golden-yellow oil. The air was filled with a rich aroma that made Jiang Xiao salivate.

Obviously, this was the meat of the White Ghoul.

Although roasted meat sounded delicious, the family of three was already sick of it. They didn’t have a large list of food here, and the roasted meat of the White ghouls of other dimensions was almost a standard meal.

“Uncle Quanquan, Crow, turn into a Crow.” Roly Poly’s words were still unclear, but his little brain was very smart and could express what he wanted.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao was sitting on the stone bench while Yuan Yuan was holding onto his calf. She looked up at him with eyes full of anticipation and was pleading.

At the side, his mother, canglan, quickly leaned forward and took Roly Poly into her arms. “You’re disobedient again. Don’t disturb uncle’s meal. ”

Roly Poly pouted and said unhappily,”Uncle doesn’t need to eat. Uncle doesn’t need to eat.”

The atmosphere in the room became a little awkward when the young but honest words were spoken.

Who were Hu Wei and canglan?

How could they not have discovered that Jiang Xiao, the decoy, was acting strangely?

After staying here for so many days, Jiang Xiao, the bait, almost didn’t eat anything. If he wanted to drink water, he would secretly eat the snow outside.

In the beginning, Hu Wei thought that Jiang Xiao was the bait because it was his first time here and he was very resistant to it or because he was in a relatively negative state of mind. Hence, he chose not to eat and only ate snow occasionally to absorb star beads.

......

Hu Wei could totally understand Jiang Xiao’s reaction. However, more than ten days had passed and Hu Wei realized that something was wrong.

It had been so long, and under the detection of canglan’s special star technique, she even dared to hand Yuan Yuan over to Jiang Xiao, the bait. However, this brother of the night seemed to have never let down his guard. He never took off his mask?

Canglan was also an extremely sensitive and intelligent woman. Even without using that special star technique, she could feel that the night watchman, who had not revealed his name, was sincere in his love for Roly Poly. Such love contained pity, helplessness, and distress.

Yuan Yuan was still at an insensible age and had a great thirst for knowledge about the unknown world. Hence, this little fellow was extremely clingy. Ever since she saw the STAR technique to bait Jiang Xiao into becoming a Crow, she had been pestering him to become a Crow every day.

On the other hand, Jiang Xiao’s performance was impeccable. Even a clay figurine would be somewhat angry. However, he had almost never refused any of Yuan Yuan’s requests.

The only time he rejected her had also led to a very serious problem: Roly Poly wanted to play with the Quanquan mask, but the night watchman who was always obedient to Roly Poly changed the topic and played with him.

However, Yuan Yuan was extremely persistent. She would ask for what a child wanted and liked straightforwardly without hiding anything. If she couldn ‘t, she would cry.

That day, no matter how much Yuan Yuan cried, Jiang Xiao, the decoy, didn’t satisfy his needs.

In the eyes of the couple, such an action was equivalent to the collapse of their character.

This brother of the night was too gentle and patient. He would never treat Roly Poly so cruelly.

The couple didn’t think that Jiang Xiao, the bait, didn’t take off his mask because he wanted to hide his identity or because he was ugly. Neither of these two conditions would be able to make a difference. The only possibility was that this brother of the night could not take off his mask at all.

That was indeed the case, including the problem of eating and drinking.

With the upgrade of his decoy STAR technique, Jiang Xiao’s decoy was also infinitely close to that of a real person. Of course, he felt hungry and thirsty, but it was just a feeling that didn’t matter.

In essence, the decoy Jiang Xiao was still made up of star power. His flesh and blood were indeed very real, and he could also be healed with medical star techniques if he was injured. However, in the end, his flesh and blood were All Star power.

In theory, as long as the decoy Jiang Xiao replenished his star power appropriately, he could always exist in this world.

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, could open his mouth to eat, but it would be extremely strange to eat while wearing the mask. He didn’t want to leave a psychological shadow on them ...

Of course, Jiang Xiao couldn’t have foreseen such a situation in the upper snowfield, nor could he have known that he would meet a family of three. Yuan Yuan’s appearance had added so many warm elements to a serious mission.

It was necessary to disguise himself in order to enter the upper layer of the snowfield. However, the current outcome was beyond Jiang Xiao’s expectations.

Humans were not gods and it was impossible for them not to make mistakes. They could not foresee the future and it was difficult for them to see each other’s faces. Jiang Xiao didn’t think that it was really a mistake. Anyway, since things had come to this, he would just let it be.

Plop plop plop ...

A Crow flapped its wings and landed on Roly Poly’s little head.

“Waa .... Roly Poly was still being reprimanded by his mother. He reached out his little hand and carried the crow down from the sky. He looked curiously at the crow’s Black feathers, its lonely eye, and its sharp beak.

No matter how many times he looked at it, he didn’t seem to get tired of it.

“CAW~” the crow cawed and used its sharp beak to gently peck at its round stomach.

“Hehe.” Roly Poly struggled to break free from his mother’s arms. He carried the crow and jogged out with a smile. He even staggered a little.

Hu Wei and Cang LAN looked at each other with complicated expressions. Cang LAN sighed, got up, and chased after him.

The little guy was very familiar with his home and the road. He ran for a long time before he reached the cave. He held the crow in his small hands and gently swung it.

He raised his little face and looked at the clouds floating in the vast sky. His lovely eyes were full of hope. He raised his hands and released the crow.

The decoy, Jiang Xiao, was very cooperative with Roly Poly. He flapped his wings and flew up the canyon.

However, he did not dare to fly too far away. After all, this was a dangerous snowfield and any abnormalities might attract the White ghouls. Roly Poly also needed someone to look after him.

......

There was no day or night in the upper layer of the Snowland. There was a sun here, but it was impossible to tell the time.

When Yuan Yuan was tired from playing and was coaxed to sleep by Cang LAN, Jiang Xiao sat in the stone room next to the bedroom. That was the place where he had his first conversation with the couple.

There were many stone houses in the cave, and it took Hu Wei a while to find the bait, Jiang Xiao, who was in a daze.

Hu Wei wanted to say something, but he heard Jiang Xiao say,””I have to go.”

Hu Wei was speechless.

In the stone room next door, canglan, who was gently patting Yuan Yuan’s back and coaxing the child to sleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

She carefully got up and covered Yuan Yuan with a modified fur blanket. She quickly walked out and went to the stone room next door.

Hu Wei couldn’t say anything for a long time, or ... He did not know what to say.

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, said,”his life shouldn’t end here. Every time he lets me go, I feel upset. He’s just playing around, but it’s a form of motivation for me.”

“You have to find the exit,” Hu Wei said.

Hu Wei’s face was bitter. Everyone knew that this was an impossible task.

“Brother,” Hu Wei continued,”if you don’t have a child, I will be with you.”

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, shook his head and looked at Cang LAN, who had just entered.””You take care of his health and do what you should do. I will do what I should do. Fly in the direction of the sun and confirm your point of view, right?”

Canglan opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment before saying,””You two, go further away and burn down a mountain forest as a landmark.”

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, nodded and said,”I’ll also build a beacon tower far away from here. Hu Wei, add some fire to it when you go out to hunt. It may attract the White ghouls, but they won’t be targeting those stone buildings.”

If they accidentally destroy the Beacon tower in the process of fighting, you don’t have to take it to heart. After all, we’re going to burn down an entire mountain forest, which is already a landmark. ”

“Alright, we’ll set off in a while, but ...” Hu Wei nodded.

“What?” Jiang Xiao, the decoy, looked at Hu Wei.

“You have to be mentally prepared,” Hu Wei said helplessly.”Although I don’t want to say this, I certainly hope that you can find the exit or find your way back here. But this place is too big ...”

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, nodded and wanted to say,”even if I can’t find the exit, I’ll come back and bring back what you need”... However, Jiang Xiao didn’t say that.

This was because he recalled second last’s words.”Don’t give them any hope, don’t become the last straw that will crush them.

The couple was so strong and had adjusted their mentality well. Jiang Xiao decided not to disturb them before everything was settled.

After all, Jiang Xiao, the decoy, had the shadow Crow STAR technique, which allowed him to fly quickly and not be delayed by the terrain and battle. This was an advantage that the couple did not have.

Canglan suddenly turned and left, and the room fell into silence.

After a long while, canglan walked in with a huge wooden box. Due to the length of the wooden box and the width of the tunnel, canglan could only carry it forward or carry it like a bayonet.

The huge wooden box was placed at his feet, and Jiang Xiao had already figured out what was hidden inside from the clattering sounds.

Canglan opened the wooden box and revealed piles of star beads in front of Jiang Xiao, which looked like treasures at the bottom of the sea.

White Ghoul star bead? White Ghoul witch star bead? There must be thousands of them, right?

Canglan laughed softly and swung the long ponytail behind him. “I’ll replenish my energy on the way,”

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, didn’t know if he should accept this valuable gift. From the perspective of the couple, there was a high probability that he would never return from this journey.

Cang LAN continued,”we still have such boxes. We don’t have anything here. However, we can get as many star beads as we want from the White ghouls. You only need to supply star power, right?”

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, was speechless.

After living together for so long, with the abilities of the two kings of the Galaxy, it was inevitable that they would find some problems. However, the three of them had a tacit understanding and had never talked about such a sensitive topic.

Now that the bait, Jiang Xiao, was going to go on a journey of no return, Cang LAN finally pointed out the problem. Perhaps she wanted to know the answer.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Xiao, the decoy, nodded.

Even though canglan already knew the answer, his body still trembled slightly.

Was it because the magical STAR technique could transform star power energy and supply the human body with the needs of life?

No, canglan didn’t think so. After such a long time of contact, all the signs made her secretly speculate.

With canglan’s keen perception and her unique intuition as a woman, she believed from the bottom of her heart that this brother of the night might not be a “human” but a high-level summoned creature, a summoned creature that could even have its own star map and star techniques.

“That’s why you won’t take off your mask,” canglan said softly.”You won’t tell us your name either. You have some secrets that you don’t want others to know, secrets that you can’t let others know.”

“Lanlan!” Hu Wei stopped her.

Cang LAN strode forward and sat on the stone bench beside Jiang Xiao, the decoy. She said softly,””At least give me a name. We all know what will happen when you leave.

You might be the only friend Roly Poly will meet in his life. At least let him know uncle Quanquan’s real name. ”

The room fell into silence.

.

The couple, who had not been able to feel the passage of time, could feel it clearly again. They seemed to hear the second hand of a clock ticking.

After a long time, Jiang Xiao, the decoy, said,”Jiang Xiao.”

Canglan softly muttered this name,”Jiang Xiao ...”

Jiang Xiao knew that he had made an irrational choice, but it was the first time he had enjoyed being free and easy.

Jiang Xiao believed in the couple’s character and also believed in the child. Nothing would go wrong. However, if he were to save the family of three one day and something really went wrong ... Jiang Xiao, I’ll admit it!

“Tell Roly Poly that his friend has a name, a real name.” Jiang Xiao, the decoy, looked at Cang LAN silently and said,”my name is Jiang Xiao. Jiang as in Yangtze River and Xiao as in Breaking Dawn.”

Jiang Xiao, the decoy, stood up and looked at Hu Wei.””Let’s go, let’s set the mountain on fire,”

“Let’s go!”Hu Wei stood up.
