It’s no wonder that the healing medicine was really effective.
After Han Xia drank it, he felt the wounds on his hands become slightly warm and itchy, which was a sign of healing.
He knew that the bottle of medicine was definitely not called something as childish as “Tears of God”, but his friend’s care made him feel very warm inside.
After all, there were not many people in this world who cared about him.
After returning to the room, Han Xia sat on the chair in his room, looking at the companion spirit in the birdcage who had been keeping a cold attitude and had not said a word since last night.
Han Xia knew that she had woken up last night, but she seemed not to want to talk to him.
As if she was getting tired of being stared at by Han Xia, the girl in the cage frowned and raised her left leg to fold it over her right leg: “What are you looking at?”
“I just find this world incredible.”
Han Xia put his hands on the table and rested his chin on his arms.
“There are such things as companion spirits. According to the knowledge of our world, your cells must have become smaller with your small size, or there may not be such a thing as cells at all.”
“How should I know!”
The girl thought that the boy in front of her might have become stupid because of the huge blow he suffered.
As a companion spirit, all her memories came from him.
How could she know something that even he didn’t know?
However, Han Xia didn’t care about the girl’s temper, but said to himself: “I heard that the companion spirit was born from the memory of the host. I was thinking, since the host and the companion spirit have the same memory, then why do we need a companion spirit? Obviously, everything the companion spirit can think of can be thought of by the host, and what the host can do, the companion spirit can’t do. After all, due to its size, it’s a bit difficult for you to help move things.”
“……”
The girl wanted to say something but stopped herself.
However, she didn’t know what she was thinking about, so she closed her mouth and remained silent.
“Then I asked around and found out that companion spirits have special abilities. Therefore, in addition to being a good friend of the host, companion spirits are also good assistants.”
Han Xia thought about how excited he was when he first saw the girl appear.
However, when he asked her what abilities she had, she said she had none.
It was like Han Xia was just an ordinary person and she was just an ordinary companion spirit.
Although Han Xia was happy for nothing at the time, because the other party had the same memories as himself, the two had many common topics.
At that time, the girl also disguised herself very well.
Although she did not have any abilities, she could help Han Xia find solutions.
Discussions between two people are always much more complete than thinking alone.
“At that time, I didn’t think there was anything wrong with you not having any abilities. After all, I’m just an ordinary person, and it’s normal to have an ordinary companion spirit. Moreover, I feel very happy chatting with you. There are many jokes that people in this world can’t understand. There are many things that are common sense in my hometown but are mysterious and unknown in this world. There are light novels that I haven’t finished reading, game plots that I haven’t completed, and anime that haven’t finished. There are obviously many things I can talk to you about.”
——I thought we could be friends.
However, when Han Xia took her to carry out the mission assigned by the “Young Master”, she finally showed her fangs to Han Xia.
Since she, as a companion spirit, could not actively harm the host, she found a way to destroy Han Xia’s mission and let Han Xia die in the mission.
In this way, she would be free and would not be bound by the rules of this world and forced to stay by Han Xia’s side.
Han Xia closed his eyes and said, “I am very afraid of death. I want to see more wonders in this world. I want to see the scenery that I couldn’t see in my hometown before. I want to experience all the beauty in this short life. But, you can’t help me.”
“Hmph!”
The girl sneered.
Isn’t this a matter of course?
“But I don’t want to forget one day in the future that I am Han Xia, that I am from Earth, and that I am a Chinese with black hair and black eyes. So, I won’t abandon you, but…” Han Xia opened his eyes again, his eyes gentle: “It’s just that I still don’t trust you.”
“Heh, as long as you don’t kill me, you should be careful and don’t let me find a chance.”
The girl’s eyes were cold and arrogant.
Although she was the one who betrayed Han Xia first, she didn’t think she was wrong.
Why should she be controlled by others since she was born?
Why can’t she enjoy freedom, can’t decide what she wants to do, can’t decide where she wants to go, can’t decide what she wants to eat?
Not to mention that she had been imprisoned in this birdcage for two whole years!
Her hatred for Han Xia had already reached its limit!
“Although companion spirits look very similar to humans, you actually don’t need to eat or breathe. What an enviable physique.”
Han Xia ignored the girl again.
The reason why he said so much, in addition to telling his companion spirit what he was going to do, was more to convince himself.
“What do you want to say?”
The girl frowned.
She felt a little uneasy.
She was not afraid of death, so why would she be afraid of Han Xia hurting her?
Moreover, as a companion spirit, if she was injured, Han Xia would not feel good either.
The crystal dagger that Han Xia had before should be some kind of special prop, so that after killing herself, a new companion spirit could be born again.
However, the dagger was crushed by the “young master”.
What other means could Han Xia use now?
“I will keep you by my side forever, but I will take away any possibility of you betraying me.”
After Han Xia finished speaking, he let out a light breath, and the tenderness in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a dead-end indifference, just like the look in the girl’s eyes when she looked at him seriously injured and dying.
At this moment, Han Xia’s eyes were so cold that they made people feel scared.
The girl’s heart trembled, but she stared at Han Xia stubbornly, her eyes full of unyielding spirit.
She was now somewhat glad that she was a companion spirit, she would not be hungry, she was not afraid of cold or heat, and she would not suffocate.
The Ten Cruel Tortures of the Qing Dynasty were completely useless to her.
She was not afraid of anything at all.
Just use whatever tricks you have!
Afterwards, Han Xia found a wooden barrel under the puzzled gaze of his companion spirit and filled it with water.
“Wait! You…” The girl suddenly realized something, but it was too late.
Han Xia put the birdcage into the water and took out the lid.
He looked down at the girl who was soaking in the water and trying to say something, then silently put the lid on and sealed the gap with nails.
As a companion spirit, she will not be hungry and does not need to breathe.
She will not die even if she is soaked in water.
In this way, she cannot make any sound, and with the birdcage in place, she cannot break free.
Therefore, this wooden barrel is an absolute prison for Han Xia’s companion spirit where no one can get any help from it!
The bird cage was not big, so the wooden barrel Han Xia found was not big either, just enough to fit the bird cage in it.
Then Han Xia picked up the wooden barrel and placed it in the box under the bed.
When he was going to Chengfang College, he would take the wooden barrel with him.
