After settling down Li Xi and Zhan Wu Blade, Shen Yuan did not continue to stay in Chiping City, but borrowed an off-road vehicle from the Black Dragon Bar, left Chiping City with stars and moons, and traveled along the highway to the northwest of the Red Empire.

Only a few people in Lei Ping's Black Dragon City knew his whereabouts.

For Shen Yuan's actions, Lei Ping was caught off guard and only felt stunned, but thinking about it carefully, Shen Yuan, as the culprit who had disturbed the entire Time Sequence Department and even White Dragon City, left Chiping City at this time and avoided the troubles that followed, which was a great thing for Black Dragon City and even for himself.

Although Lei Ping knew that Shen Yuan's starting point was not to escape, he still quietly breathed a sigh of relief. There are only a few people in high positions inside Black Dragon City who know Shen Yuan's whereabouts, and the rest like Cheng Ruan and Li Xi are also the closest people around Shen Yuan, and his movements have been guaranteed to the greatest extent, plus the way of travel is the most covert driving, it is almost impossible for White Dragon City to grasp where Shen Yuan is through the layers of protection of Black Dragon City.

In this way, the Black and White Dragon City will have a direct dialogue, and the boundless anger against Shen Yuan within the White Dragon City will not be able to fall on Shen Yuan in the end, and by the time Shen Yuan returns, everything will basically be settled.

Shen Yuan didn't have so many thoughts in his heart. He chose to drive only because the place he was going to required a very flexible means of transportation, and he also avoided the danger of being caught red-handed by the agents of White Dragon City during the sensitive period.

This drive was three full days and nights.

Shen Yuan relied on the strong physical fitness of the supernatural to rush day and night. Even the time to eat has been saved, when you are thirsty, you will moisten your mouth with the element of water, and when you are very hungry, you will let the ball red squatting in the passenger seat next to you bake some dry food and eat it indiscriminately, and the dashboard representing the speed of the car has been stuck at the point of the maximum speed limit, whistling all the way, in just three days, from Chiping City in the middle of the Red Empire to the vicinity of Chiyuan City in the northwest of the Red Empire.

And the Hidden Research Institute of the Ministry of Information Technology, which he wanted to enter with Wang Shaofeng's identity, was only half a day's drive from Chiyuan City.

Walking here, the scene outside Shen Yuan's car window has long since changed from the prosperous central area of the empire to a high mountain grassland with wide roads, and the herdsmen can be seen everywhere, most of the people are dressed simply, and the smiles on their faces are mellow and sincere.

The wind blowing across the plateau blew into Shen Yuan's carriage with thin oxygen, blowing up the messy hair he was wearing on his forehead, slightly obscuring his vision, and he shook it to the side of his ear for a while.

Of course, the strong physique of the supernatural person helped Shen Yuan to avoid the constraints brought by altitude sickness, allowing him to concentrate on the amazing and magnificent plateau scenery in front of him.

There was already an overwhelming humming sound in the engine case of this off-road vehicle, and Shen Yuan was reminded all the time that the condition of this machine was extremely bad.

Finally, when Shen Yuan was still a few kilometers away from Chiyuan City, the off-road vehicle broke down.

Shen Yuan sighed lightly, got out of the car, looked at the off-road vehicle with muddy tires and wagons, and some black smoke coming out of the gap in the front cover, and rubbed his forehead with some worry.

In the end, he decided not to call it a highway rescue service, because that would increase the risk of being detected by White Dragon City, and secondly, it would delay Shen Yuan for a lot of time.

In this sparsely populated plateau in the northwest of the empire, where there are more yaks and sheep than people, it is probably shorter to find a veterinarian who can treat horses than to wait for road service in the same place......

Shen Yuan decided to push the car to a place out of the way, and then ruthlessly abandoned it......

Anyway, after entering Chiyuan City, Shen Yuan has a way to get another car through the channels of Black Dragon City, why delay all this time, he should make a contribution to the local herdsmen, and when the time comes, someone who is destined to see this car and disassemble some parts from it, it can be sold for some money - this is Shen Yuan's wishful thinking to eliminate the guilt in his heart.

I saw a wide but uneven road, a man with a dark face standing next to the driver's window, pushing the cart with one hand and controlling the direction with the other, and Qiu Hong pushed the rear bumper in the back of the car in a similar way, and the long grass touching the knees on both sides, always making people feel that they had to be matched with a melodious background music to live up to this situation, this car and this road.

Suddenly, a light bell sounded from the grassland next to the highway and fell into Shen Yuan's ears.

This light pastoral bell was very common on the northwestern plateau, and Shen Yuan had listened to it many times along the way, but he just subconsciously turned his head to take a look.

At this glance, Shen Yuan couldn't take his eyes off it anymore.

What caught his attention was a giant dog covered in pitch black.

This dog does not have to stand up, it has a height of more than one meter and six, and its body is strong and symmetrical, and its sense of strength is full of beauty that cannot be ignored.

It walks calmly and thickly, and its eyebrows and eyes are calm and peaceful. That expression is like a bluestone standing at the ends of the world, which has endured thousands of years of wind and rain baptism, so as to have such a stable state.

The giant dog followed the flock silently, with a slow and steady pace, and as it went, it was strange that there was not a trace of oppression commensurate with its size.

Shen Yuan looked at the giant dog in amazement.

His priestly instinct told him that the giant dog was extremely strong.

Shen Yuan felt that even if he wore the fragment of the god and demon mask and fought with it now, he might not be able to get half of the benefits.

And the strength realm of this giant dog has not yet reached the sky.

This is an extremely horrific fact. Among the Heart Flame Realm powerhouses, there are not many existences that can fight against Shen Yuan wearing the mask of gods and demons, let alone a dog???

Feeling Shen Yuan's gaze, the giant dog turned his head sideways, glanced at Shen Yuan with deep eyes, and then ignored it.

On the other side of the giant dog, there stood an equally strong man. The man was bald, his scalp was shaved to a blue-black color, he was about 1.8 meters tall, and he was wearing a simple sleeveless leather coat, revealing strong arm muscles and a broad and strong chest.

The man looked over with the giant dog, and when he saw Shen Yuan, his eyebrows were slightly raised, as if he was a little surprised.

The man shouted something to Shen Yuan in the local language.

Shen Yuan was slightly stunned, and said with a gesture, "I'm a tourist, I don't understand." ”

The man turned around and strode towards Shen Yuan.

The giant dog followed the man's side step by step, and his pace was not even disturbed by the man's sudden turn, as if he had known that he would come towards Shen Yuan.

And the flock of sheep also stopped in their place, and none of them ran around, and they were in good order, not like a flock, but like an army.

Qiu Hong, who was originally pushing the car forward behind the car, got under the car the moment she saw the giant dog, and seeing the giant dog and the man coming, Qiu Hong instinctively wanted to escape some distance, but Shen Yuan was still there, so she mustered up the courage to stand beside Shen Yuan's legs, clinging to Shen Yuan's body and trembling slightly.

Shen Yuan frowned slightly, took a half-step diagonally, and blocked Qiu Hong, who was obviously a little frightened, behind.

The man and the giant dog strode a few meters in front of Shen Yuan, as if they saw Shen Yuan's vigilance, and no longer moved forward, but asked in Mandarin, "Do you need help?"

This was an ordinary inquiry, but the next two words made Shen Yuan secretly swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Do you need help? The man's voice was deep and his accent was a little strange, but he could tell that he had spoken Mandarin since he was a child.

Shen Yuan couldn't help but glance up and down at the man in front of him.

This man resembles the giant dog beside him. Calm and arrogant, you can vaguely perceive the fierceness hidden in your bones, but there is a very warm connection that connects a man and a beast. That connection cannot be seen, but it can be felt, and it can leave a very visible impression in the minds of sensitive people.

It's like two equally powerful, equally fearless brave men who met each other one day. At first glance, I knew that the other party was my own kind, and it was the greatest fate to meet each other in the vast sea of people. So in a look-a-on, it became a friend of life and death, relying on each other, trusting each other, as long as there is each other by their side, the heaven and earth will collapse, and they are not afraid.

This man and a dog, forming a combination in the flock of sheep and the tall grassland world, seemed to be very common on the grassland, but it aroused the memories of that unique person and that strange journey in Shen Yuan's heart.

......

The night in the Nightsong Forest was as beautiful as a dream when I first came here five years ago.

Towering trees stand quietly around the Falling Star Lake, occasionally blowing in a gentle breeze that will roll a few leaves and make a soft sound.

The starry night sky was tightly covered by the tall body of the arbor, and only the sparse moonlight sprinkled through the purple mist could barely echo the luminous light emanating from the center of the Falling Star Lake.

A minotaur sits on the shore of the Falling Star Lake, wearing a black armor and five totems of different colors stuck behind his waist.

The rod in his hand was like a branch sticking out of the trunk of a tree, and it seemed like another dwarf tree that had taken root here.

The cool night breeze blew slowly, and the Minotaur waved his free left hand, driving aside the hovering jungle spider the size of a basin.

"Poof!" There was a soft sound, and with a lift of his wrist, a small arm-length star grouper was lifted out of the water, writhing and struggling in the air.

Picking off the grouper, he shook the fishing rod in his hand, and the iron hook drew a silver ray under the lilac sky, and fell into the water, causing a ripple. Then, the tall minotaur sat silently in place like an old monk in meditation, like a stone sculpture that had been sitting quietly by the lake for thousands of years.

The fog gradually thickened, hiding the figure of the seer in it, looming, and it was impossible to see it really. His mind couldn't help but be in a trance, and his memory repeatedly went back to that somewhat distant past.
