Chapter 438: All Things Are Straw Dogs (20)
Si Cen didn't know how to comfort people, so he didn't say anything.
But perhaps because he has suffered too much for a long time, Jiang Huai's ability to endure is not that weak.
Plus, perhaps because these words had been weighing on his mind for too long, he finally vented his feelings by speaking them out, and he actually felt somewhat relieved.
Jiang Huaizhen calmed himself down and soon smiled again, "Are you...really from the secret realm? To be honest, when I first saw you, I felt that you looked familiar."
Afraid that Si Cen would think he was trying to get close to him for some purpose, Jiang Huaizhen quickly added, "I don't mean anything else. I just think you look kind."
Si Cen didn't care whether Jiang Huai had any purpose or not, but he suddenly remembered that if he wanted to leave the secret realm, he might need these people's help.
Those cultivators thought he was a monster in the secret realm and were too wary of him. Perhaps he could start with Jiang Huaizhen.
Si Cen made up his mind and stared at Jiang Huaizhen without blinking, "I never said I was in the secret realm. You guys were the ones who said that."
Jiang Huaizhen's eyes widened. "Ah? So you are here to gain experience as well? But you look like this..."
It's not that they have preconceived ideas. Si Cen's appearance is obviously different from that of humans. Even if the horns on his head are not very obvious, they are still there, not to mention his obviously heterochromatic pupils.
Although the three realms today are not clearly divided, there are many demon cultivators who often appear in mixed areas, but they are still too few. Moreover, demon cultivators generally hide their identities as demons. No one would show off his demon characteristics everywhere - unless he is extremely powerful and is not afraid of being targeted, or he is deliberately doing evil.
But if that's the case, how can Jiang Huai really not tell what kind of monster Si Cen is?
Look at his horns, is he a goat?
what?
Can a goat become a monster?
The key point is, the humanoid looks so good, is it really a goat spirit?
Seeing Jiang Huaizhen's stupid expression, Si Cen guessed that he must be imagining something outrageous.
He rolled his eyes at Jiang Huaizhen in annoyance, "You are really stupid. Not only do you have a bad eyesight, but your memory is also bad. Your temper hasn't changed at all from the time you jumped up and down like a fool in the secret room ten years ago."
Jiang Huai was stunned.
Jiang Huaizhen's eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
Then he let out a weird cry, "Little brat, is that you?!!"
This strange cry not only attracted the attention of Bai Xiaoxiao and others, but also caused Si Cen to slap him on the back of his head without mercy.
Jiang Huaizhen: QAQ
It hurts!
but!
He rubbed the back of his head, the expression on his face changing all the time, you can see how shocked and complicated he was inside, he opened his mouth.
Si Cen was waiting for what he was going to ask, and his mind was already quickly weaving together various possible answers, so that he would definitely be able to fool Jiang Huaizhen.
But he asked hesitantly, "What is Erha?"
Si Cen: ...
Si Cen was speechless at first, and stunned the next moment.
Yes, what is Erha?
Why, after recalling Jiang Huaizhen's past performances and thinking about bringing him into something, I consciously uttered this name.
Even at this moment, the answer appeared in his mind, "Erha... is a kind of dog that is as energetic as you, likes to destroy the house, and has clear and 'wise' eyes."
Si Cen frowned. He imagined the appearance of a Husky in his mind, and was sure that he had never seen or heard of this kind of dog since he was a child.
Husky?
Weird name.
He realized that something seemed to be wrong with him.
However, now is not the time to pursue this matter, because Jiang Huaizhen is still watching him.
Jiang Huai really didn't expect to meet an old friend in this place.
He couldn't even imagine that the little brat who was even more rebellious than him would become like this when he grew up.
"No... You, didn't you fall into the pool of blood and disappear into thin air?"
Si Cen had to cover his mouth with his hand, already regretting revealing his identity to him at this time.
Jiang Huaizhen also realized that he had done something wrong. He showed an apologetic look, covered his mouth obediently, and said humbly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Si Cen: ...
Meeting Jiang Huaizhen's innocent eyes, it was great, more like the look of a Husky when it was scolded by its owner after getting into trouble.
Very clear and "wise".
"I don't know what happened. I fell into the blood pool and was trapped in the secret realm. Maybe there was an entrance to the secret realm under the blood pool."
Si Cen really didn't know about this. He just thought he was lucky because the entrance to the secret realm happened to be opened under the blood pool at that time, so he escaped by chance.
Jiang Huaizhen sighed when he heard this, but he was also happy that Si Cen survived.
Of course, after he was happy, he suddenly remembered it.
To put it bluntly, Si Cen had stabbed him in the back!
He was almost angry to death at that time. If he didn't have Xuanye, he and all the children who were locked in the secret room by Si Cen would definitely have been separated by the criminal guards.
Thinking of this, Jiang Huaizhen started to get angry.
"You clearly agreed at that time that we would work together to take down the guards, then find the key to open the secret room, and escape together."
Jiang Huai looked at Si Cen with resentment, just like a wife looking at her cheating husband.
Si Cen spoke without blinking, "Are you stupid? When we were caught and taken to the secret room, I heard that the passages were full of traps and formations. The badge on my master's body could only protect one person. If we all ran out, not only would the alarm be triggered and attract the attention of people outside, but with our mediocre skills at the time, we would all die in the secret passage."
After Jiang Huaizhen was rescued by his sister and others, he saw the dangerous secret passage. Now that Si Cen mentioned it, he understood it even more.
Besides, didn’t Si Cen come back with his sister and others to rescue him later?
He looked touched, "You...ah, thank you."
At that time, Si Cen probably couldn't be sure whether Xing Wei's badge was useful no matter who held it, or whether it was bound to Xing Wei's spiritual consciousness and could only be held by Xing Wei.
He didn't stab himself in the back at all. He clearly disregarded his own safety and rushed forward alone, using his own life to test the way out. He was sacrificing himself for justice!
Jiang Huaizhen was so moved that his eyes were filled with tears, especially when he thought about how he had misunderstood him at that time. He wanted to beat him up. He even felt a moment of pleasure when he saw him being thrown into the pool of blood. Jiang Huaizhen wanted to slap himself twice.
"I misunderstood you, I'm sorry, I'm such a jerk!"
Si Cen: ...
Why is it that after experiencing so much about people's fickleness, indifference and selfishness, Jiang Huaizhen only grows older but not wiser?
Si Cen really felt a little pity.
