After being hit in the face by the system, I swapped bodies with Zhongli

Chapter 214 Fingers intertwined

But even so, the distance between the two figures is still not too close.

The first one to react was Morax. He leaned forward slightly from his upright sitting position.

Then he took the initiative to put Yuan Zhuoyue's hand on her palm with his fingertips.

He held it directly in his palm, but did not drag or pull it. Instead, he maintained this extremely awkward and difficult posture, gently holding Yuan Zhuoyue's hand in his palm.

Just like the pine and cypress trees facing the wind, trying to stretch out their branches and get closer to her.

Yuan Zhuoyue has always been a person who responds to soft words and not to hard ones. After Morax behaved like this, whether he did it intentionally or not, he was deliberately showing it to her.

But after seeing Morax's attitude, Yuan Zhuoyue would be more willing to cooperate with any of his future moves.

So Yuan Zhuoyue took another step closer to where Morax was, and leaned over slightly, making his raised hand drop down again.

Seeing this, Morax knew that the 'altruistic' attitude he had displayed had softened. Now that he had lost all his memories, he was still covered in spikes.

Yuan Zhuoyue was on guard and rejected his approach.

She would never reject a person who came with good intentions, even if that good intention was only superficial.

As long as she does not feel offended or her own interests are not infringed, Yuan Zhuoyue will not treat others coldly based solely on her own likes and dislikes.

But like looking in a mirror, Yuan Zhuoyue was willing to respond with the same attitude.

Morax also didn't care about Yuan Zhuoyue's suspicious attitude before, after all, he had known Yuan Zhuoyue for a long time.

She was in a state of irrationality, confusion, cruelty and violence most of the time, and even in the occasional lucid moments, she chose to avoid him.

Compared to the cold blade that could suddenly attack him at any time and try to take his life.

Now, Yuan Zhuoyue's questioning voices and cautious attitude are really nothing.

At least the person in front of him, although still greatly affected, was in a sober and rational state.

And willing to communicate with him.

Morax wanted to take advantage of the moment when Yuan Zhuoyue had not yet "awoke" and was still trapped in this maze, with his eyes blinded.

He got closer to her again and established a more stable relationship of trust, making Yuan Zhuoyue willing to believe him.

Only in this way will Morax's plan have a chance of success in the future and Yuan Zhuoyue can exist.

Continue to exist...

However...if in the future, Yuan Zhuoyue "comes to his senses", even if he knows that he did this with "good intentions",

Morax thought that the relationship between them would probably develop in a worse direction.

Morax couldn't care less about so many things now. He didn't have the energy to think about the distant future.

Just make sure that in the present moment, nothing too big goes wrong.

As for the future, will Yuan Zhuoyue's attitude towards him be anger or more resentment?

Morax no longer cares about it, and has an attitude of "not being burdened by too much debt".

After all, only by taking good care of the present can we have the possibility of moving forward to the future. Only then can we be qualified to talk about the future.

Seeing that Yuan Zhuoyue did not show an attitude of resistance or opposition, Morax naturally remained calm and narrowed the distance between himself and Yuan Zhuoyue through his words and actions.

Morax carefully observed the changes in Yuan Zhuoyue's expression, and said in his usual friendly and calm voice: "It will take quite some time, why don't you sit down and talk in detail?"

Now that Yuan Zhuoyue doesn't know how to solve his own problems, he will naturally choose to listen to the opinions and suggestions put forward by Morax, who has more knowledge and is more familiar with such incidents.

Yuan Zhuoyue sat down without any hesitation, but subconsciously wanted to sit away from Morax.

But at this moment, the pale and thin hand that was holding his hand actually used its strength.

It prevented Yuan Zhuoyue from retreating far away, and when he stretched himself out, he pulled himself out of Morax's hand again.

Because of this limitation, Yuan Zhuoyue finally had no choice but to sit down at an arm's length away from Morax, pretending to be calm and nonchalant.

In a hand-in-hand gesture.

Yuan Zhuoyue then stared closely at the hand that was tightly holding "her own hand". The hand was pale, thin, and looked frail. It was the hand that should have belonged to her.

So... physical contact is to release the surging and hidden power in her body.

Is it a necessary prerequisite to be guided into Morax's body, this new carrier?

But then Morax did something that was completely beyond Yuan Zhuoyue's expectations.

Morax relaxed his tightly clenched hand a little, then took it off very skillfully.

The body that Yuan Zhuoyue was using now, the gloves on his hands, the slender and powerful limbs with distinct joints, as if made of black rock and gold, stone and jade, were directly exposed.

Then Morax calmly stretched out his pale and thin hand, placed his palm against his, and interlocked his fingers.

Gen Zhuoyue: “……?!!”

Yuan Zhuoyue's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of disbelief. He felt as if he had been electrocuted, and froze in place.

After she came to her senses, she resisted the urge to shake Morax's hand away.

Trying to be calm, he asked, "Do we... have to be like this?"

"This is naturally an indispensable measure." Morax explained calmly: "You can think of this as, um... a stable bridge for transmitting power between two carriers of power."

Although this is completely Morax's one-sided statement, Yuan Zhuoyue does not have a deep understanding of these things and knows very little.

I could only nod and believe: "So what else do you need me to do next?"

"I've told you before, just leave everything to me." When Morax said these words, he stared at Yuan Zhuoyue's eyes with his bright and brilliant golden eyes.

There was a faint smile on his face, a warm and gentle look between his eyebrows, and his words were calm and confident, as if he had mastered everything.

Then Morax said, "When you first absorb these powers, you may feel a little uncomfortable. Are you ready now?"

This calm and reliable look easily won Yuan Zhuoyue's trust, who previously thought that Morax had done this without telling him.

After doing this, the slightly awkward feeling in my heart subsided a lot.

Then he nodded and said, "...I'm ready."

The moment these words were spoken, Yuan Zhuoyue felt a chill that spread from their tightly clasped hands, from the pale and thin hand, to her palm.

Then, in a flash, this chilly feeling spread all over her limbs.

But it was still within her tolerance range. If I had to describe it, it was like lying in a warm bed in the middle of winter, but a pair of cold hands reached in.

It sticks to the body, absorbing the warmth and making people shiver.

The most uncomfortable thing was that her hands, which were now clasped with Morax's, felt like they were holding a piece of ice.

Being in a state of low temperature freezing for a long time, she could hardly tell what she was feeling and it was a bone-chilling cold.

Or a burning sensation like being scalded.
