After hearing what Tang Zhen said, Xiao Xi was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief on her face.
"You want to kill all the citizens. What is the purpose of this?"
Xiao Xi no longer has time to distinguish the truth from what Tang Zhen said. She only knows that with the magical ability he is showing now, if he deliberately goes against the citizens, he will definitely bring unimaginable losses to the floating city!
Knowing that she had no way to retreat now, Xiao Xi simply stopped trying to escape and asked Tang Zhen sternly.
Faced with Xiao Xi's questioning, Tang Zhen's expression remained unchanged, and he just said in a light tone: "Actually, there is no specific reason. Maybe it's because I can't understand your style of doing things, or maybe you have something you shouldn't have.
, brought trouble to you!"
Xiao Xi looked suspicious when she heard this, and asked doubtfully: "Is this the reason?"
"I have already said that there is no specific reason. If you have to find one, you can put it on me, because wherever I go in the world, it is destined to cause a bloody storm!
Since the Floating City controls this world, it is naturally my enemy, and I never like to hold back on my enemies!"
Tang Zhen gave Xiao Xi an answer that seemed ridiculous and perfunctory, but it was an indisputable fact.
As a Loucheng monk and the lord of a powerful Loucheng, his life has been tied to war and plunder. Before he completely collapses, perhaps the place he steps on will be ignited by war!
This is the fate of the monks in Loucheng, and it is also a terrible curse. Either burn the enemy with fire of war, or set yourself on fire!
"This is so ridiculous. It's definitely not the real reason. You must be scaring me, right?"
Xiao Xi took a deep breath, calmed down her panic, and shook her head again.
"Okay, after delaying for so long, I believe your companion has arrived nearby, so the conversation between us ends here!"
Tang Zhen no longer paid attention to Xiao Xi, who looked guilty, but said to Morris, who was unusually silent: "Her life and death are in your hands. How to deal with this woman, I hope you can make a decision?
No matter what decision you make, I have no objection!"
"Sir, I don't know..."
Morris didn't expect that Tang Zhen would target him again and force him to make a painful choice.
If you keep Xiao Xi as a hostage, you can indeed increase the security for yourself and your companions. As long as Tang Zhen's rune imprisonment exists, Xiao Xi will never be able to escape their control!
But in that case, Xiaoxi's situation will become extremely dangerous. Once a battle breaks out, she is likely to be the first to be dealt with!
For this woman who made his heart beat so much, Morris couldn't bear to watch her die.
But if you choose to let him go, you will put your companions in danger. Without Xiao Xi as a hostage, the enemy will attack them without any scruples!
How to choose, Morris had no idea for a while, and felt extremely painful in his heart.
"Maurice, you are different from them, right?"
Xiao Xi knew that her fate was in Morris's hands, so when she heard Tang Zhen ask her to make a choice, she knew that this was her only chance to escape.
Although she doesn't know the relationship between Tang Zhen and Morris, Xiao Xi is very sure that if Morris decides to let her go, the other party will definitely not refuse!
She spoke at this time to allow Morris to make a decision in her favor and get out of this dangerous situation as soon as possible.
Seeing Xiao Xi smiling and looking at him expectantly, Morris pursed his lips, and a touch of determination gradually appeared in his eyes.
Turning to look at Tang Zhen, Morris bowed deeply and then slowly straightened his body.
"Sir, although I don't understand your intentions, one thing is very clear, that is, you have absolutely no intention of harming me.
Perhaps, as you said, this is helping me and my companions escape from a tragic fate and live a better life that we could never have imagined before!
It's a pity that I'm just an outcast with little knowledge and no ambition. The things you mentioned are so far away from me, so far away that just thinking about them makes me feel extremely hesitant."
Taking a deep breath and looking at Tang Zhen standing in front of him with his hands behind his back, Morris gritted his teeth and said: "Whether you are happy or not, I have decided to let this woman go!"
Tang Zhen nodded expressionlessly, but Xiao Xi, who was not far away, was secretly happy. At the same time, her eyes looking at Morris became softer and seemed to be full of affection.
She knew that her expression was very powerful and would definitely make this abandoned boy insist on his decision.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Jim, and the other uncles, please allow me to do whatever I want."
Glancing at Uncle Jim and other companions with an apologetic look, Morris turned to look at Xiao Xi, smiled bitterly and said: "I actually know very well in my heart how far apart I am from you, and I am not qualified to like you at all.
So I suddenly hated the floating city and those citizens. It was because of their existence that I had to struggle for survival from the time I was sensible. Then one day I died of disease and hunger and was killed.
The wind and sand are buried in a corner that no one knows!
I don’t want to repeat the fate of my parents, nor do I want to experience the torture of wanting to love but not daring to love again, because it makes me feel extremely painful.”
Morris gently raised one of his hands and slowly pressed it between his eyebrows. At the same time, Xiao Xi felt a heat in her palm, and the confinement runes set by Tang Zhen began to slowly disappear.
"Thank you for your appearance, I finally understand what I want, and I hope you can remember my name. If one day when I am constantly mentioned by others, or even look up in fear, there must be a part of you in it.
A credit!
If you never hear news about me again, or know that I am dead, never forget that there was an abandoned boy who fell in love with you at first sight, even at the cost of his own life!"
As Morris's words fell, the runes in Xiao Xi's palm completely disappeared, and he himself shook a few times and suddenly fell to the ground.
"Sir, I'm sorry to disappoint you!"
Morris's face was pale, he smiled miserably at Tang Zhen, and passed out directly due to the loss of mental power.
"No, actually I'm very happy because you finally know what you want to do!"
Tang Zhen waved his hand with a smile on his face, and Morris' body floated up from the ground and landed in front of Uncle Jim and others.
"Even if you leave the monster city now, you will never be able to escape the siege of citizens, so I suggest you enter the building where the mutated plants were found just now, and wait until you receive my notification before leaving."
Uncle Jim seemed to have been mentally prepared for a long time, and now he was even more obedient to Tang Zhen. When Tang Zhen asked them to escape into a metal building, he immediately picked up the unconscious Morris.
"Sir, please take care of yourself. I'm leaving first!"
Uncle Jim knew in his heart that Tang Zhen would never give up on them, but would stay and deal with the enemy alone.
After saluting Tang Zhen, Uncle Jim was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly heard a deep voice not far away.
