In the city lord's mansion in Spring City, a young girl turned pale and hesitated at the door of the house.
She is petite in stature and beautiful in appearance. She looks no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, but she is the highest-ranking healer in the Blizzard mercenary group. She has been with Jiang Xiaojie since the group was founded, and has been assigned by the head of the group. Missions have always been obedient.
But this time, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
Yu Nian, who was wrapped in bandages and was sneaking out of another ward, was grabbed by her.
"Niannian, you are so injured, why are you running around?"
"Sister Xiaoyu." Yu Nian, who was caught, squeezed his eyes and staggered the topic, "Why are you standing here and why don't you go in?"
"I, I'm a little scared." Xiaoyu kept rubbing his hands, "The head of the regiment asked me to be in charge of... that person's treatment."
She was referring to Ye Peitian, who was quietly brought back by Jiang Xiaojie and placed in the city lord's mansion. That is a human demon with a fierce reputation. I heard that this person killed people like numbness, and he could bury the entire base under the yellow sand without blinking his eyes. Didn't the former city owner provoke him to die
"What are you afraid of? If he hadn't come out to help. We might all be dead, and now we don't have time to think about people and demons. It's not scary." Although Yu Niannian is young, he can speak well. There are not many people in the corps. Can you tell her, "Listen to the city lord, can the city lord say anything wrong?"
"That said, it seems to be the same." Xiaoyu touched his chest and reassured himself, "That man looks really cold, and sometimes I see his eyes, and the hairs stand up in fright."
"You're scaring yourself, I think he's kind and handsome." Yu Nian laughed heartlessly. "If you're so afraid, I'll go in with you."
The two little girls pushed open the door together. There was no one in the room, the window was wide open, the bed by the window was tidied up, and even the quilt was folded.
"Yeah, where did he go?" Xiaoyu covered his mouth with his hand, "He was hurt so badly."
On the roof of the City Lord's Mansion, Jiang Xiaojie sat cross-legged on the tiles, overlooking the fortress that escaped from the dead.
"Captain, isn't it inappropriate for us to take him in like this?" Awei, who was behind him, said worriedly, "It's a human demon after all. If the rumors leak, it will not affect us too well."
Jiang Xiaojie didn't look back, but glanced at him sideways, "Well, you go down and throw him on the street now, or take a knife and cut him in half, destroying the body."
"Uh. This... " Awei choked.
Because of the relationship of the head of the team, most of the members of their entire team are young and out of touch, so that he has a relatively stable personality and has to provoke the burden of the team, and is used to overthinking many times.
But in fact, in the battle yesterday, when the head of the regiment was trapped, Yu Nian was injured, and the soldiers in the city suffered heavy casualties, he was very grateful to Ye Peitian who fell from the sky.
Now ask him to do the ungrateful act of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and he really can't do it.
Yu Nian's head popped out of the stairs: "Head of the regiment, deputy of the regiment, that person is gone. It seems that he left early in the morning."
When Awei heard these words, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Jiang Xiaojie stood up and turned his eyes to the northeast corner of the fortress.
There is a zigzag building there.
At this moment, Chu Qianxun pushed open the door and hurried downstairs.
"Qianxun, you just came back, and you're going out again?" Gao Yan stopped her, "Take a breath, I'll go out and find Lin Fei for you, okay?"
Yesterday, after a day of fighting, whoever was not tired, Qianxun did not rest for a moment, and kept looking for Lin Fei who had disappeared from the battlefield.
"It's alright, Sister Yan, you are guarding the house for me." Chu Qianxun patted Gao Yan on the shoulder, and jumped down from the fourth floor on the railing of the aisle.
Many people in the atrium saw her and greeted her warmly. In yesterday's battle, Chu Qianxun, who was brilliant, made everyone in this building look at him with admiration and admiration.
Chu Qianxun walked in a hurry, crossed the courtyard and went out. After walking out of the courtyard gate, he suddenly stopped and turned around.
On the edge of the snow-covered steps, a familiar figure was sitting against the wall. The silver mask that the man had been wearing on his face had been lost. Chaos used a scarf to cover his mouth and nose, revealing tousled hair, and his eyebrows were squinting. smile at her.
Chu Qianxun stepped back in two steps, held up his face and looked him up and down, surprised and happy, almost speechless.
"Qianxun. Give me a hand." Ye Peitian's voice was weak, but there was a smile in his tone, "I can't get up."
Chu Qianxun squatted down in front of him, "Come up, I'll carry you back."
A body with body temperature leaned against her back.
For a saint of the same rank as Chu Qianxun, carrying an adult man on his back was just an easy little thing.
This is not the first time she has carried Ye Peitian back. When she first met, Ye Peitian made her feel like white snow on the stairs, with a chill everywhere.
He looked at people with cold eyes, and when he spoke, his tone was very cold. Even his palms and body remained cold for thousands of years.
But now he is both warm and soft, his eyes are always smiling, his actions are gentle, and even his body has become so warm.
Chu Qianxun carried him on his back, and his heart that had been nervous all night finally calmed down. As he walked upstairs, he met many people.
"Sister Qianxun, do you want to help?"
"What's wrong? Lin Fei is also injured?"
"I found Lin Fei, I said you don't have to worry, you'll be back in a while, right?"
"Brother Lin is seriously injured, do you want me to run some errands to invite a healer?"
The neighbors greeted him warmly. Chu Qianxun was filled with excitement. He ran back to the house in three steps, carefully placing Ye Peitian on the bed.
Leaning over to check his injuries, he couldn't help but keep bowing his head and kissing him. How worried last night, how happy now.
When she got up and wanted to leave, Ye Peitian grabbed the corner of her clothes.
"Chihiro, stay with me for a while." The man's eyes were filled with a little mist, and he looked out wetly through his long eyelashes. The low voice was weak and somewhat magnetic.
Chu Qianxun couldn't refuse such a soft Huangsha Emperor at all, so he gave up his plan to prepare breakfast and rested on the bed with Ye Peitian.
Ye Peitian slowly stretched out his hand to wrap her in his arms, and buried his head deeply in her neck.
This is the most reassuring place in the world,
"Chihiro, it made me see you dead. It was too much, I couldn't stand it at all, but luckily you showed up in time..."
He muttered to himself, slowly closing his eyes in relief and sleepiness.
In the haze, he vaguely heard the sound of someone knocking on the door, Chihiro opened the door and talked to the other party. Whispering and chattering, it was obviously a very noisy environment, but Ye Peitian felt that he slept very peacefully.
Occasionally, when he was half asleep, there were shallow and thin voices that came into his ears.
"I heard that Brother Lin was injured, this is astragalus meat soup, stewed for more than an hour." Jiang Xiaojuan shoved the small stew pot into Chu Qianxun's hand, and said awkwardly, "Qianxun, I used to be me. I'm not very sensible. I want to thank you and Lin Fei for helping me drive that person away."
After a while, the voice changed again,
"How is Lin Fei? I bought some high-level healing potion, you can put it on for him." Gao Yan said this.
The mad woman brought two hard-boiled eggs and tried to look inside through the crack of the door blocked by Chu Qianxun.
"This is for Lin Fei, don't eat it yourself." She explained worriedly.
In the battle under the city wall, Lin Fei saved her life with a knife, which made her even more sincerely grateful to the male god in her heart. She was always stingy and sent eggs to visit.
Ye Peitian, who acted as Lin Fei, has always been very low-key in battle, and only shot when he had to, but every time he made a shot, he almost saved a life at a critical moment.
Many soldiers who received his help came to offer condolences with a little heart, and Chu Qianxun accepted gifts for him one by one.
When Ye Peitian woke up, there were already a lot of small things piled up on the table.
A few round eggs, a few bottles of different potions in the Highlands, a pack or two of scattered snacks, and some stewed soup...
Compared to Ye Peitian's amazing wealth, these are not valuable things. But he looked at it very seriously, listened very carefully, and unpacked the not-so-sophisticated food to share with Chu Qianxun.
For Ye Peitian, every day now is like a new life. He wants to savor and cherish every gain in this new life, and share with his beloved one every moment here. a joy.
…
Inside the city is the joy of rebirth, and outside the city is a battlefield that is just beginning to rest. On the edge of a jungle far away from Spring City,
Fu Huaiyu led his men and desperately suppressed the anger and disappointment in his heart. In front of their eyes, under the cedar tree that was pressing against the white snow, there was only a monster with branches all over its body and a broken arm.
When they hurriedly chased here, Ye Peitian had already escaped through the yellow sand, and the monster that Fu Huaiyu had invited at risk was covered in scars and had lost the ability to pursue.
"This time, you acted too recklessly. Without waiting for our cooperation, you thought that you could pick the Spring City by yourself." Fu Huaiyu suppressed the anger in his heart, "Actually, as long as you are willing to cooperate with us, you can only get the flesh and blood of humans and demons. It’s easy to get hold of, how can such a situation come about?”
Today's Yu Yu looks scarred and dilapidated. Fu Huaiyu can't help but speak arrogantly. She even began to think about whether to take this opportunity to kill this monster in the middle and late tenth order and gain a lot of money. s return.
The intertwined branches of the tree suddenly stretched out in the bushes and grabbed Fu Huaiyu.
In Fu Huaiyu's dilated pupils, one of her summoned beasts jumped out of the ground in time to block her, replacing her fate of being crushed.
When she retreated in panic, the pale monster in the darkness smiled, and countless branches crawled on the surface of the jungle, grabbed two saints who could not escape, bound their bodies, and rolled them high in the air.
In the shrill screams, the monster's beautiful eyes kept smiling, but the jaws were cracked and grew bigger and bigger, hanging at an incredible ninety-degree angle, stuffing the saint he caught into the black hole. in the mouth.
Then he closed the huge deformed mouth and slowly regained his humanoid body. The broken arm, a white arm slowly grew out of the severed sleeve, and the naked pale arm even came out of the pocket of the clothes. He took out a fine handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth gracefully.
"Hmph, boring and dirty human beings." He snorted softly, glanced at the panic-stricken God loves everyone, and turned away slowly.
Fu Huaiyu clenched a tree trunk with his palm tightly, gritted his teeth in anger and unwillingly, and ripped off a piece of sawdust from the tree trunk.
"Huaiyu, forget it, the characters of monsters are so uncertain, let's not provoke them easily." The members of the church discouraged her, and no one wanted to die in vain in front of tenth-order monsters.
Fu Huaiyu's jaw trembled and his teeth rattled, trying his best to restrain his facial expression so that it wouldn't be distorted too exaggeratedly.
"Find... find a room, I need to confess my mistakes to God."
Among the barren ruins,
In a dilapidated building left over from the golden age, the sound of a whip breaking through the air could be heard clearly.
The people whom God loves are far away, for fear that one of them will accidentally anger the captain, who is already on the verge of emotional collapse.
In the empty room with no one, the beautiful priest, who was usually invincible, knelt on the ground and beat his back in a self-abuse style. She was trembling, staring at the ground, big drops of sweat dripping from her twisted face, and she kept mumbling to herself.
"I was wrong, father, forgive me, it's all...my fault."
Whenever her emotions were out of control, only the painful memories of her childhood that were deeply embedded in her mind could restore her sobriety and calmness. For Fu Huaiyu, the world is crazy, and only crazy ways can keep him alive.
"Wow. It turns out that Miss Huaiyu, who looks arrogant and beautiful on weekdays, actually knows her sins in her heart?"
At the window of the house, a young and handsome man was sitting at some point. He has short white blond hair, and sits on the windowsill with his legs bent.
Fu Huaiyu jumped up from the ground and hurriedly put on his clothes and tightened his neckline.
"Who? Looking for death, how did you get in!" Her most unbearable secret was being spied on by others, and this person must die.
"How did I get in?" Sitting on the windowsill, A Xiao crossed her fingers and pressed her chin to her chin, looking at her with interest, "Not only did I come, but I've been here for a long time, patiently compromising your perverted and disgusting performances. It's over."
"Come here, come here!" Fu Huaiyu shouted loudly, and the only answer to her was silence. The team members, who should be not far from the door, did not respond to her call. The team members she brought were all battle-hardened fighters, and no matter how powerful the enemy was, it was impossible for them to disappear without a trace without any resistance.
Behind A Xiao is a pitch-dark world, a barren land, black stones piled up with dry cracks, silent and dead, with a blood-red eye hanging from the barren sky.
Countless black liquids flowed down from the man's slender, white fingertips. Those black liquids, like snakes, climbed down from the windowsill, twisted and flowed across the ground, and surrounded Fu Huaiyu.
