【Zhou Ye】The Foot of Time

Chapter 54

Ye Xiu said that Zhou Zekai was the banker, but Zhou Zekai knew he was not.He was just a croupier who dealt the cards mechanically according to the rules of the game. Whether Ye Xiu won or won, those chips never belonged to him. All he had was time to start the game for Ye Xiu.

And he is undoubtedly not a qualified croupier, because he has been trying to persuade this desperate gambler to stop, telling him how complicated the rules of the game are and how unshakable the banker is.However, the gambler just looked at him and told him that if he was on this gambling table, he didn't care about losing his fortune, and as long as the croupier was still dealing cards, he would accompany him all the way to the end.

In fact, he used to be such a gambler, and he also followed him all the way to the end. After he had nothing left, he had no other way out except to become a dealer in a casino.And the croupier who took away all his chips with a pair of beautiful hands at the beginning has become the gambler in front of him now.

"Yes I can't take it! I told you before I can't take it!"

Ye Xiu pushed Zhou Zekai to the wall, made a cage with his hands to trap him, and locked him with a pair of red eyes, Zhou Zekai couldn't tell whether it was excessive sadness or extreme anger.

"I finally accepted the fact that I am immortal and have to watch my family walk in front of me. I think it doesn't matter if I have to live for billions of years in the end because you will be with me, and I won't let you Born again, I will not allow you to be born again in front of me, we will go on forever - and you tell me we only have this 1000 years? Huh? Never see each other after a thousand years?! You tell me how you think I Accept it?!"

"I won't accept such a future, absolutely. I don't know why you gave up, but Zhou Zekai, I'm trying to find a way for us. It's okay if you don't help me, but don't try to persuade me to give up! I'm in love with you. I'm running for the rest of my life, as long as I can live in this life, I have to be with you for as long as I can, and I have to die with you until the end of the universe!"

——This is an unbreakable Mobis ring.

Zhou Zekai clearly saw his own past in Ye Xiu, and now he can also lament in his heart how young his lover is, and the fateful curse made them walk on each other's footsteps.

So he also looked forward to that relief.

He held his square box in his dream, and saw that the sand in the hourglass had covered Ye Xiu's shoulders.He thought that he should want time to go slowly, and don't take his lover away from his life so quickly.But at the same time, he sadly hoped that time would go faster, at least for this period of time, let it pass quickly, he wanted to see Ye Xiu who would laugh out loud again, even if the other party didn't know anything and couldn't see the emptiness in his heart, Even if the other party is not so familiar with him or even loves him.

He pressed his forehead against the hourglass, obviously he would not have any sense of touch in the dream, but he felt his forehead was icy cold to the bone.

After waking up from the dream, the world is still cruel, no different from the dream.It was still that Ye Xiu who was struggling desperately, and it was still those endless tasks.Ye Xiu at the center of the time storm hasn't finished repairing the cracks, and those time wars are still being ignited in the universe.

When he was shot on the battlefield, Zhou Zekai hardly felt anything, not physically, but psychologically—he knew that he would not die, no matter what, after all, his timeline was tightly entwined with the fixed point of time and space.Huang Shaotian who was beside him hurriedly dragged him behind the cover, quickly cut open his shirt and checked the wound.

"This location... Hey, your right heart was shot through, and the medical team was wiped out just now. You have no other options now. Congratulations, you are finally going to be reborn, the first time!"

Zhou Zekai raised his hand, he had already seen those tiny orange light dots oozing from his skin, the color was as warm as the sky in Galli Frey, but it made him feel fear belatedly.

"...No, you can't..."

Huang Shaotian wiped the dust off his face with his cuff: "What?"

"Can't... be reborn..." Zhou Zekai's every breath was tainted with the smell of blood, he said with difficulty, "Ye Xiu...would you know..."

The first time Ye Xiu saw him, he had this face.Ye Xiu said that among so many people, he was the first to see his face.He has always looked like this, from the beginning when he met Ye Xiu to the end when he sent Ye Xiu away.

He cannot be born again, never.

"Ye Xiu? Who? Oh, who is your marriage partner? You won't know you after rebirth. You and him are married. He must know that the Time Lord will be reborn. Just explain clearly...Hurry up, Just reborn, you can rush out in one breath and call reinforcements over... what the hell are you doing? If you don't regenerate again, you're really going to die! Zhou Zekai, why are you crazy!"

No... it's not just that...

He once asked, that comrade who was always at the rank of major, what it was like to be reborn, and he remembered those words clearly.

"I used to hate white, but now I feel like I like that empty color crazily-even these are no longer the same, I really don't know if this is considered alive. Hey, you say, those couples who still love each other after rebirth , how did it happen? If I got married, after being reborn, I found that I didn't feel anything for my partner, how terrible it would be..."

"Lieutenant Colonel Zhou, for the sake of the one you love, take good care of yourself...don't be reborn."

"You never know what you're going to be like."

He choked out a mouthful of blood, the rebirth energy in his body was rushing back and forth, he could hardly hold back, even his retinas were coated with orange.

——If I am reborn, if I no longer love Ye Xiu.

This kind of fear made him firmly grasp the figure in his mind, the person he loved deeply, the man who was always frozen at the age of 25 and told him that he would not let him be born again.

"Oh, you mean that some people can become who they want most? Do you really believe that?"

--Yes, I believe.

He looked into Ye Xiu's eyes, and those dark eyes reflected his own face!

Orange torrents gushed out from his body, his limbs and every cell were washed away.Every part of his body died in an instant and was reborn in an instant.Every day in the past was spinning back and forth in his mind, he looked for Ye Xiu's face in every fragment, and then found himself in Ye Xiu's eyes——

Panting, Zhou Zekai sat up abruptly, and put his palm on his heart, where it was smooth.

He looked at Huang Shaotian in front of him - this noisy man opened his mouth wide at the moment, as if he saw the most incredible thing in this world.

"You—you haven't changed?!" Huang Shaotian yelled and jumped up, which made his head protrude from the cover, and he was shot by a bullet when he found out, but he didn't care at all, he just squatted down quickly and pointed at Zhou Zekai's face , "How is this possible?! You were reborn just now, right? This is rebirth! How come you haven't changed at all? Let me go! Can this be called rebirth without change?!"

Zhou Zekai picked up the gun beside him and held it in front of his eyes.

—Yes, that's it.

On the smooth silver stock of the gun, the face he had seen for 800 years was reflected.

——As it should be.

======

... The rebirth of Xiao Zhou who had been buried for a long time, but Ye Xiu said that the first time he met Xiao Zhou was the foreshadowing of this face...

Do you still remember when Lao Ye said that his black face and rebirth couldn't solve it when he was playing mahjong?

Because no matter how many times he is reborn, Zhou Zekai will always look like this, the look that Ye Xiu loves so much.

I will go quietly.
