Chapter 38: The End of the World and the Wonderland on Earth
Looking at the old stone tablet, a question mark slowly appeared in Hyungui's mind.
"What the hell is this place?" he couldn't understand now.
Tang Xiaobai stood in front of the monument and was silent. I don't know why, but the words on this stone tablet always give her a vague sense of familiarity.
"I don't know. The only way to do this is to try to communicate with those people who are tired of fire, and then figure out where this is. ”
Hyun Gyu listened to her calm tone as always, and inexplicably relieved his heart.
He now stands tall and looks down, and the ground view is even more unobstructed.
It turns out that although the terrain here is the same as that of the extremely cold land, it is not as solemn as there, but the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it is quiet and peaceful.
Hyun Gyu turned around and looked at the ancient stone tablet again.
The end of the world.
The End of the World... And a fairyland on earth?
"Let's go. Hyun Gyu smiled at Tang Xiaobai, and the two flew down together, causing another burst of exclamations from the fire-weary people.
Tang Xiaobai picked up a branch on the ground at random, planning to use the painting to communicate with these people first.
She first drew the mouse on the ground, and then the two of them entered the bottom of the pool and came to the place again. The idea of why the mouse was able to reach the other side and what kind of place it was then expressed in the painting.
The Fireweary Nation was quick to give their answer.
However, Tang Xiaobai frowned when he looked at the pattern on the ground, this reply... She couldn't read it.
Tang Xiaobai stared at the pattern on the ground in confusion for a long time, and was thinking about whether it was time to change the way of communication, but saw that Xuan Gui didn't know when, he actually picked up the wooden stick on the ground and began to draw the same ghost drawing talisman as the fire-weary countryman.
Hyun Gyu was in high spirits at the moment.
To be honest, it was the first time he had seen a soul painter from the same sect as him. And this kind of happiness of finding soulmates in the mountains and rivers is really indescribable, and only by painting friends can we express our inner excitement.
Hyun Gyu was happy in his heart, and the speed in his hand was also smooth, and he finished drawing what he wanted to talk about in a short time. When the people of the fire-weary country saw it, they were overjoyed, and they hurriedly picked up the wooden stick and drew a circle, and then put a circle in the circle, and then set another circle.
Hyun Gyu nodded, drew a frame on the ground, and then another frame in the frame, and then another frame.
After repeating this several times, both sides seemed to be very happy, but Tang Xiaobai's face became darker and darker, and finally couldn't help asking, "What do you mean by drawing?"
Hyungui glanced at her, a little proud, pointed to the layered circle and said, "This is the topography here, they say this is a circle, then their village, and the innermost is this cold pool." ”
Tang Xiaobai nodded, "And then?"
Hyun Gyu pointed to the frame he had drawn and said, "This is what I described about our place, the sky is round, then Penglai Island, and then the Heguang faction." ”
Tang Xiaobai rubbed his temples and patiently continued to ask, "Then what does this smiling face mean?"
Hyun Gyu was puzzled, "Huh?", looked in the direction she pointed, and said with a smile, "Well, this isn't a smiley face, these two points are the two of us, that half-arc represents the scene where we are surrounded by them, and the circle outside represents their place." ”
Tang Xiaobai didn't want to ask anymore. She felt that it would be an insult to her to ask any more, so she went straight to the point, "Is there a way to say it?"
Hyungui shook his head, looking innocent, "No." ”
So what are you doing after drawing the ghost talisman for so long? Tang Xiaobai was depressed, she didn't want to pay attention to him, she needed to be alone and quiet.
"But they invited us to dinner. Hyun Gyu hurriedly added.
Eat. Tang Xiaobai sighed resignedly. Well, let's go first. Then he sighed again, why did Hyun-gyu come with her instead of Fengji?
......
......
Looking at the few pieces of coals on the plate, Tang Xiaobai's head ached faintly.
Intelligence is contagious, isn't it? Otherwise, why did she follow her to the feast knowing that the people of the Fire Averse Kingdom fed on coals?
Of course, Hyun Gyu was also full of grievances at this time, and there was nowhere to vent.
That's it? Just give him this? Hyun Gyu looked at the few ochre stones in front of him, speechless. What about the friendship they just built through painting?
But before Hyun Gyu could complain, the friendship came.
After all, compared to the cold Tang Xiaobai, the people of the fire-weary country seem to love Xuangui more. So in order to show their affection, in addition to the plate of coals, they added a few more pots of vegetables to him.
Hyun Gyu looked at them in turn, they were: braised charcoal, steamed charcoal and cold charcoal. In addition, the fire-weary people also intimately prepared a pot of hot pot with crushed charcoal as the base material for him to eat with the coals.
Tang Xiaobai on the side saw this scene, looked up at Xuan Gui, he was holding his cheek in one hand and holding chopsticks in the other hand to pull the coals on the table, his face was full of melancholy and depression, the corners of his mouth inadvertently rose, and the irritability accumulated before was swept away in an instant.
The people of the fire-weary country were still earnestly begging Hyun-gyu to eat quickly, if the coals were cold, it would not taste good, Hyun-gyu angrily pushed away the stones in front of him, pulled up a fire-weary country and walked out.
After a while, the two returned. I saw that the man's mouth was full of sparks, and he didn't know what to say to the others, and soon a few people came to remove the coals from the table, and soon a chicken was served.
A ...... Lively chickens.
Tang Xiaobai didn't want to eat anymore, she just sat quietly on the side, watching with interest how Xuan Gui planned to solve it this time.
Hyun Gyu looked at the live chicken and moved the corners of his mouth.
It's better to ask for others than for yourself.
Hyun Gyu stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and a small flame burst out of his palm. He held the fire in one hand and the chicken in the other, and was about to kill it before roasting it, but the fire-weary people who did not want to see the flame in his hand suddenly became terrified.
"Put out the fire. Tang Xiaobai said busily, but unfortunately it was too late, the people of the fire-weary country were frightened when they saw the fire, and now everyone began to scream loudly. And as they became emotional, the flames that came out of their mouths suddenly rose very high, and they saw that a fire was inevitable.
“......”
Hyun Gyu stared blankly at this sudden farce, and then looked at the flame in his palm that had not played a role from the beginning to the present, and was a little silent.
The tongue of fire soon hit the beams of the house and began to burn, and everywhere it went, it turned into a sea of fire in an instant. And the people of the fire-weary country are still running around and yelling in fear, causing the fire to become more and more ferocious.
Tang Xiaobai sighed helplessly, turned her hand into a trick, and a beam of light flew straight into the sky, and with a "call" she blurted out, a heavy rain immediately poured down, quickly extinguishing this sudden fire.
When the fire-weary people saw such a miracle, they knelt down and bowed, and their mouths did not stop for a moment, and their expressions were full of gratitude.
Xuan Gui looked at this group of people in confusion, and couldn't help but walk up to Tang Xiaobai and ask, "What did they go crazy just now?"
Unexpectedly, after seeing him this time, the fire-weary people changed their previous enthusiasm, shouted a few words in their mouths, picked up the wooden sticks and forks in their hands and rushed up, making a gesture to surround Xuangui.
