Chapter 374 It’s just a not-so-wonderful dream.
Yuan Zhuoyue originally wanted to just get it over with, but when he met the stubborn eyes of the little girl in front of him.
Words like 'everything is fine, you don't have to worry too much' were never successfully uttered from my mouth.
After a moment of silence, Yuan Zhuoyue finally replied in a low voice under Kurumi's expectant gaze, "I don't know how he is doing now."
When Hu Tao heard the answer, he immediately became anxious and took action.
She seemed to want to raise her hand to grab Yuan Zhuoyue's sleeve, but she just raised her hand halfway before turning it back abruptly.
The hands that she had forced back waved in the air, then they were placed on her waist and then around her chest, as if she had nowhere to put them.
Just like she is now, feeling a little confused and at a loss, but not knowing what she can do.
From the overly subtle movements of her body, one can tell that her current state of mind is not as calm as she appears to be.
Yuan Zhuoyue could easily see the impatience and anxiety hidden in her heart.
But in the end, this girl, who had shouldered heavy responsibilities in her youth, still kept herself where she was and put on a calm appearance.
He asked in a serious tone, "But aren't you in the body of a guest official in my Wangsheng Hall? Why don't you know if he is safe? Where is he now? When will he return safely?"
These questions were not sharp at all. It seemed that Hu Tao just wanted to know what the elder who had accompanied her for many years was like now. Was he safe?
But Yuan Zhuoyue also heard that hidden behind these words was the question that Hu Tao wanted to know the most, but which was not asked by her.
When will she, the outsider who has occupied Zhongli's body, leave? When can she return this body to its true owner?
Yuan Zhuoyue could only say soothingly, "It is not my wish to live in this body. But considering his abilities, he will be safe even if he encounters any situation... And I am not sure how long it will take before I can return this body to its true owner."
"Then you can rest assured... no matter what happens, he will definitely return to this land." Yuan Zhuoyue looked at Kurumi who raised her head to look at him, and wanted to pat her shoulder or touch her head to comfort her.
But after she raised her hand, she found that in her current state, it seemed inappropriate to have such a slightly intimate interaction with Walnut, who was still a stranger to her.
He then awkwardly withdrew his hand, pretending nothing had happened, slightly changed his stance, and crossed his arms over his chest.
Although the previous words were indeed said to appease Hu Tao, they were also the most firm thought in Yuan Zhuoyue's heart at the moment.
No matter what happened, Morax would never abandon the territory he had protected for thousands of years.
Will definitely return to this land.
It seemed that Yuan Zhuoyue's tone was too confident, and Hu Tao, who had originally been a little bit aggressive, couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
Just this moment of daze made her previous arrogance immediately weaken.
However, Hu Tao was not satisfied with this ambiguous answer and continued to ask, "You were unclear about Zhongli's current situation before, but now you are so sure that Zhongli will come back... How can I trust you then?"
"You don't have to believe me." Yuan Zhuoyue smiled and replied softly, "You should believe in him. Believe that no matter what happens, he can return to this world."
This unexpected answer left Hu Tao speechless. After a moment of silence, he replied dryly, "How can you guarantee that what you said is true?"
Yuan Zhuoyue stroked his chin and said thoughtfully: "Maybe... he loves this land so deeply?"
Kurumi felt that every word the other party said was beyond her expectations: "......?"
Isn't this right?
When she had learned that the current 'Zhongli' was not her guest at the Wangsheng Hall, Little Paimon and the Traveler did not directly tell her what the specific situation was.
But it also revealed some information about the existence of the person who currently occupies her guest body.
He is a steady, reliable, trustworthy person who can easily solve many problems.
But from their previous conversation, this 'person' seemed to be more lively and more eccentric than she had expected.
He doesn't seem to have a stable personality.
Hu Tao was about to say something when she suddenly found that the sky outside the window suddenly darkened. The sudden darkening of the sky seemed to bring the oppressive feeling of an approaching storm.
Hu Tao instinctively felt that the air was filled with a strong sense of humidity, which even made her breathing feel a little sluggish.
It brought a feeling of suffocation.
She subconsciously ran to the window, then looked up at the dim sky. She seemed to see a hint of dark red in the thick darkness above the sky.
But it seemed to be just her illusion, because the moment she looked up at the sky from the gate, she felt someone holding her wrist.
She was pulled back from the window very forcefully, and a broad hand gently covered her eyes, so that all she could see was darkness.
Her staggering body was then gently steadyed by the person who pulled her back.
But now Hu Tao couldn't care less about these things. She felt dizzy and her brain was spinning.
The blood vessels between the head and neck are like trapped and struggling worms.
It seemed as if it wanted to break through her skin and flesh and escape from the restraints, or as if it wanted to drill into the depths of her brain and stir her brain matter.
Walnut never knew her voice could be so sharp. She didn't know what she wanted to say, but she just shouted instinctively: "I saw it——"
But her words were quickly dispersed by a low and gentle voice.
That extremely familiar and steady voice instantly calmed her confused mind.
The pain, which was more dizzy than anything else, seemed to have left her. When Hu Tao heard the voice, she said calmly, "...You didn't see anything."
That voice rang in my ears, very close to me. After a brief pause, it rang again: "Well... from just now on, you have all been in a dream. So, everything you saw, Master Hu Tao, was just a dream that was not a very pleasant experience."
However, Hu Tao, who had just felt that she had been slightly relieved from that abnormal state, moved her lips, revealing confusion and doubt between her lips and teeth: "...What?"
