7. Memories of Mandrill
Witnessing two Qiuqiu people being turned into ashes and dissipated by the mandrill with a wave of his hand, the child's face instantly burst into laughter. She looked at the mandrill with her eyes wide open, her eyes full of admiration.
"Master Mandrill."
"Wow! You are amazing!"
The force of the wind blew, and the Qiuqiu people's masks on the ground were gathered on the ground in front of Tong Yan.
Tong Yan's eyes fell on the Qiuqiu mask, and she picked it up without hesitation. Then she explained: "I didn't say that on purpose because I wanted the materials."
"No need to explain."
"I see."
Mandrill looked at Tong Yan quietly, his voice was very soft, as if he didn't want to waste more words on this matter.
"You do not understand!"
Seeing Tong Yan's stubborn look, Mandrill stretched out his hand towards Tong Yan.
"Then give me the materials."
Tong Yan turned sideways while holding the mask, then pouted and said, "This is mine."
It looked like a childish little girl holding all her favorite stuffed toys in her arms for fear of being snatched away.
"You look very much like an old friend of mine."
After Mandrill said these words, he turned around. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance, his golden eyes that had been emotionless flashing slightly.
When she heard about her old friend, Tong Yan's heart began to beat fast and inexplicably. She pretended to be calm and asked: "Old friend?"
"Um."
"Then the reason why you are willing to help me is because of her?"
Mandrill did not answer. He had no answer to this question.
Mandrill raised his eyes and looked at the horizon. An Chun's words telling him not to regret before leaving echoed in his mind, and he frowned.
As an immortal, he has a long life and has been used to separation and death for a long time.
But that time, he regretted it.
It was also that time that he went against the wishes of the Rock King for the first time.
Feeling the sadness radiating unconsciously from Mandrill, the tip of Tong Yan's nose felt sour. The scene when she and Mandrill parted in her previous life appeared in her mind. For a moment, Tong Yan's heart felt like it was being twisted with a knife, but she didn't dare
Showing her expression, she put down her mask, sat down on the ground, and said in a playful tone: "I really want to meet Master Mandrill's old friend."
"If she were still alive, she would definitely be willing to meet you."
Rarely, a beautiful smile appeared on Mandrill's face. The childlike face looked at Mandrill. She was very curious about how Mandrill looked at her previous life, so she asked cautiously: "It looks like...?"
"
Mandrill looked at the child's face and fell into deep thought for a long time. Soon, he said hesitantly: "It's not so much like him as it is the complete opposite."
"She is very powerful. A human body can fight against an immortal."
Tong Yan was completely stunned. Wasn't this just a roundabout way of saying that she was weak now?
Mandrill was immersed in his memories and explained everything about An Chun, not paying attention to the rich changes in Tong Yan's expression.
"She is very optimistic and can face difficult situations with a smile."
"She is very brave. She narrowly escaped death and still fought with all her strength."
"She is very kind and treats everyone equally."
I don't know why, but hearing Mandrill speak so highly of her previous life, Tong Yan was happy but also felt a strange feeling, not jealous but a little sour, so she interrupted Mandrill's narration with a dissatisfied voice.
.
"We obviously have nothing in common with each other!"
Tong Yan let out a cold snort, then sat cross-legged, minding his own business, and began to absorb the Qiu Qiu people's masks to use for breakthrough.
"The ability is passive and cannot be actively improved. The current progress is 40/180. After the progress is completed, it will be passively promoted to level 1. The current level is 0."
"Task 2: Walking with Mandrill [Get Mandrill's approval without revealing the identity of the first life]"
