Chapter 347: Scorpion, What’s Wrong with You?
The last ray of light of the setting sun appeared above the sea and sky, and the sea breeze came slowly with a salty and wet smell, gently stirring the scorpion's black hair.
Even though he was wearing a loose black robe, it could still be seen that his figure was very slender. When he turned around, the reason why Ye Zi subconsciously avoided looking was because of his face.
With thin willow eyebrows, big amber-orange eyes, a straight and delicate nose, and a small mouth, this is definitely the face of a woman, and it is also a very beautiful face.
Even though Ye Zi was used to seeing the world, he still couldn't adapt to this after traveling together for many days.
Although he had seen Xie's true face, which was that he was a very handsome young man, when he looked at this beautiful woman's face, Fei Liuhu's ferocious face always appeared in his mind subconsciously for comparison.
Fei Liuhu... This is the face I always see. Now she looks like a beautiful woman. The two looks overlap...!
"I haven't been able to find a suitable one yet. This body is considered to be of the best quality before leaving." Xie's face was calm. Since it was a female puppet, the tone of her voice was also feminine, clear and soft.
Even if he takes on a female body, he won't feel the same discomfort as Ye Zi. For a puppet, gender doesn't matter at all. What needs to be taken care of is the puppet's mechanism, strength, quality and other factors.
"The Taketori clan has excellent physical strength. Just find a suitable body from that clan."
Ye Zi rubbed his forehead, sat down in a place, threw the firewood into a shallow pit, and immediately lit it with fire escape.
This place was where he and Xie had been before. The shallow pit was also left by them before, but there were almost no traces left.
Xie walked up to Ye Zi and sat down. The two of them were separated by a burning bonfire, just like before, where the firewood was placed and where they were sitting.
As long as he raised his eyes, he could see the beautiful and moving face illuminated by the firelight. Ye Zi felt as if there was a stone resting on his heart, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable because, like a conditioned reflex, the red amber would jump out of his head. That ugly look.
He avoided looking, took out the storage scroll, summoned a boar leg comparable to Scorpion's current size, and roasted it on the campfire. This was his dinner tonight. As for Scorpion, he was a human puppet, so he didn't need to eat.
Looking at the boar legs in front of him, Ye Zi asked: "Xiao, can your core replace the heart?"
Xie silently stared at the burning flames, and nodded after hearing Ye Zi's words.
Ye Zi was silent for a while, and then said in an incoherent tone: "Without food and drink, life will lack a lot of fun."
"That kind of thing doesn't matter at all." Xie said coldly.
Ye Zi glanced at him and said calmly: "You gave up the things that a person should have, your body and humanity, in order to gain the power to complete a certain thing. Now you have completed it, at least, what you gave up The body can now be picked up."
Hearing this, Xie suddenly let out a deep, melodious laugh, and said coldly: "You can actually say such things? Are you pitying me?"
"Of course not." Ye Zi quietly stared at the small sparks that occasionally exploded in the bonfire, and said calmly: "If I really want to say it... I'm a little envious of you."
"Envy?" Xie Liu frowned, not knowing why.
"You've reached the finish line, but I... it's far from enough." Ye Zi took out the seasoning, controlled the force, sprinkled it on the boar's legs, and then flipped it over.
Xie was silent for a moment, and then said calmly: "The end? You seem to have misunderstood something. Killing White Fang to avenge your parents is just a small thing that must be done."
When he said this, he raised his slender arms, gently pressed his slender fingertips on the core, and said coldly: "My end point lies here."
The place where the fingertips press lightly is the core, which is the heart, and can also be called the human heart.
If that is Scorpio's end point, only he will know what he wants.
Ye Zi looked at Xie's actions and wondered what Xie wanted to express, but he had no intention of further interfering and said, "I misunderstood. If I advise you to pick up the things you threw away, just treat it as if I didn't say it. "
Xie stared at the bonfire and said: "The moment something is thrown away, there is no chance to pick it up again."
"Yeah…"
Ye Zi couldn't deny it. He lifted up the large roasted pork leg with one hand and took a closer look to see if it was cooked. After confirming that it was still under the heat, he put it back.
Those who cannot give up anything cannot change any facts.
If you want to change a fact, the weight of what you have given up cannot be easily picked up again.
If you can easily pick it up again, the facts you want to change are not so difficult that you need to give them up.
"Scorpion, people's helplessness often lies in their weakness." Ye Zi said.
Hearing this, Xie looked at Ye Zi with a strange look. He felt that Ye Zi was strange tonight and replied: "Weak people can't change anything, so they will naturally be helpless."
Ye Zi said: "So, when I come back after a while, this poor country is still the same."
"What does that have to do with us?" Xie said coldly.
"It's just a little emotional. Take me to a place tomorrow." Ye Zi suddenly said.
Xie asked: "Where to go?"
"That time, you stole the ship's place."
"What are you doing there?" Xie asked confused.
"Nothing, I just got into the mood."
"whatever."
At night, after Ye Zi finished chewing the boar legs and filled his stomach, he habitually set warning traps around him, and then fell asleep.
In the early morning, when the sky got a little brighter, Ye Zi and Xie opened their eyes.
There was no fog in the Land of Waves yesterday, but early this morning, it was filled with thick fog, showing that the weather is changeable.
At Ye Zi's request, before setting off, Xie led Ye Zi to the place where he last snatched the ship, which was a simple dock.
After the two arrived here, a simple wooden house originally built next to the dock was now in ruins.
As the distance got closer, the fog's obstruction would not be so obvious. Xie pointed at the pile of ruins and spoke briefly.
"It's really sad." Ye Zi said lightly: "This country can't change the situation despite all its efforts, but I can change everything with just the move of my finger."
"Is this what you're interested in?" Xie looked at him sideways and asked.
"No, it's just that when you see such a poor and down-and-out country, you will think of something."
Ye Zi raised his hand, chakra surged, and the wooden pillars spurted out from his palm, twisting to form wooden ships of good size and quality.
Xie looked at this scene and remained silent.
Using Wood Escape, he easily built many wooden boats, and Ye Zi turned around and left.
Seeing this, Xie followed him, and their figures blended into the thick fog and disappeared.
"Just a few ships can't change anything." Walking on the road, Xie said calmly.
Ye Zi calmly said: "I can give them a bridge, but I won't. People have to rely on themselves in the end."
"It's so boring." Xiao mocked.
When Ye Zi heard this, he stopped talking. To him, using wood to build a strong wooden boat was like a casual charity, but to the people of this poor and small country, it was a very important gift.
The two walked side by side, heading towards the coastline in the other direction.
The sun slowly rose, and the light enveloped the earth, causing the thick fog to disperse for a few minutes.
A shout of surprise rang out from the usually rarely visited pier.
So, one person followed the sound and looked at the many large wooden boats floating on the sea in shock.
For the Country of Waves, which has few ships, these wooden ships are extremely important.
A man who knew something about boats jumped on board to check it out, and was even more shocked.
The wooden boat he stood on was one piece, not connected, and its quality was extremely solid.
"Is this...a miracle?" The man said to himself blankly.
(PS: I think it is difficult to build a bridge with earth escape, because without the support of chakra, the earth or stones will fall apart. I remember seeing a scene where a ninja died and then used earth escape to build a bridge. The clods of earth disappear, but the wood escape is different.)
