When Yue Ying was woken up by Lin Mingfeng, it was already the second half of the night. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The fire is still burning, just because there is not too much firewood, it is not so bright and warm anymore, and beyond that, there is no other light.

Seeing that Yueying was already awake, Lin Mingfeng made a gesture, and got into his own sleeping bag, and soon fell asleep, and the wrench and Alice next to him were also immersed in sleep, occasionally humming twice.

Tsukizakura rubbed her eyes, climbed out of her sleeping bag, and walked out of the hole.

The clouds in the sky were still thick, there was no moonlight, no trace of the dead or creatures, and the whole world was only snowflakes falling silently, quietly like a tomb.

"Ah, boy, is it your vigil?"

Tsukizakura turned her head and saw Mr. Marlos behind her, his huge body filling the hole, holding the chopsticks and staff in his hand, his robe clinging tightly to his torso, like a gray boulder.

"Good morning. ”

"Good morning, kid. ”

Tsukizakura scratched her hair, "What are you doing so early? It's not time to leave yet." ”

"Hmm...... I'm used to getting up early to pray. Mr. Marlos smiled and sat down by the entrance to the cave so that Tsukizakura wouldn't need to look up to see Mr. Marlos' face.

"Pray?"

"A safe new day, or something?" Mr. Marlos gestured with his left hand, "God bless us." ”

"It's us who protect you, not God. ”

Mr. Marlos raised his eyelids and looked at Tsukizakura, "Don't you believe in gods?"

"Why believe?"

The two looked directly at each other, the black eyes of the moon cherry were very pure, and they couldn't see any meaning, Mr. Marlos was silent for a while, touched his face, and said, "You are right, whether you believe in God or not, it is up to everyone." ”

Tsukizakura couldn't understand what Marlos was saying, but the old brother said that when someone said they didn't understand, just smile.

So Tsukizakura laughed habitually.

"Son, why are you laughing?"

"I don't know. He really didn't know, it was just a habit.

Mr. Marlos touched his forehead, "You don't look the same as you look, I even suspect that you are an adult pretending to be a child......"

"Are you alright?" Tsukizakura rolled her eyes.

"Your strength, your spirit, are far beyond your years, but your heart is exactly like a child's...... You're special, kid. ”

"What's the point?"

"Not really. Mr. Marlos spread his hands, and the snow fell from his body.

Tsukizakura nodded understandingly, and the hot breath he exhaled turned into a white mist, and then disappeared after it diffused.

"Son, do you have anything to ask me?"

"If I have to say, there is. Tsukizakura frowned, looking very annoyed, "Why did you come to such a place?"

"This is the third time I've been asked that. Mr. Marlos blinked, "Simply put, I'm seeking the true path of Light. ”

Without waiting for Tsukizakura to ask, Mr. Marlos continued: "Where the light is, the darkness is everywhere, and if you want to understand the true meaning of the holy light, you must go to the darkest place. He pointed his finger to the ground, "This is it." ”

Mr. Marlos stood up and raised his hands, "As soon as I entered here, I felt the evil lurking beneath the ground, and the further I went, the greater the darkness became, and I was sure of one thing, this is the best place for me to practice, and I will learn what the Holy Light is here!" he was a little fanatical, grinning wide, and his white teeth were exposed. "That's why I'm here, you know?"

"I don't understand. Tsukizakura said what was in line with his appearance, what darkness, what evil, he didn't understand at all.

"Also, you're still a kid. Mr. Marlos pursed his lips in embarrassment, "Preaching to children is not a compound doctrine...... It was I who overstepped it. ”

Yueying hurriedly said that it didn't matter, he didn't understand anyway.

After expressing his feelings for a while, Mr. Marlos said that he would pray here for a while before returning to the cave, and Tsukizakura had no choice but to accompany him.

After all, Mr. Marlos is the escort, and there may be an undead crawling out of some corner here, so it's better to be cautious.

By the time Mr. Mallos had finished praying and went back to bed, it was almost dawn.

By the time the sun poured into the hole, which had been dug for less than a day, most of the people woke up, except for the wrench still in their sleeping bags, humming and not wanting to get up.

However, Alice's good soup woke up the wrench with the scent - looking like a worm wriggling on the ground, trying not to get out of the sleeping bag and approach the wrench of the pot, Tsukizakura thought Alice might as well not cook it.

Eat and drink enough, cheer up, and the next day's trek begins.

The rest of the road was much quieter than the first day, there was no snow, no undead, everyone only needed to follow the guidance of the map to bury their heads forward, and after the first day's training, they also had the experience of walking in the snow, and the speed was much faster.

Stop-and-go, all they can rely on is a map. Fortunately, the rest of the journey was not too hindered, and it took two days to finally reach the destination.

"Come on, just cross this ridge!" wrench panted, and took two steps and one step.

"You're embarrassed to be at the back!" Lin Mingfeng turned around and scolded, ran down and helped the wrench.

"Stop talking, watch your step. ”

Tsukizakura, who was walking in the front, looked at the sky, a little anxious.

After two days, he had a preliminary understanding of the clouds overhead, and whenever the clouds began to circulate and slowly turn dark, it would begin to snow, and when the wind blew, they would not want to continue on the mountain.

Yue Sakura didn't want to delay any longer, their food reserves were not enough, and if they didn't get to their destination today, it would be a little troublesome to return. But no matter what, the speed of the team can't be accelerated, after all, they have been moving forward in the snow for two days, and it is estimated that ordinary people are not halfway through it now, except for Yueying, the rest of the people's physical strength is about to reach the limit.

The cold snow wind carved some marks on Mr. Malos's face, and although it was well kept warm, Mr. Malos's face was still a little frostbitten, and most of the frostbite medicine prepared by Verus was used on Mr. Malos's face.

Of course, Mr. Marlos gets frostbite mainly because he runs out to pray in the middle of the night, no matter how big his body is like a bear, he will not be as afraid of the cold as a bear, for this reason, Mr. Maros has secretly decided not to do anything in this place to pray early, which also makes Tsukizakura feel a little relieved.

Although he was wearing a mask and it wasn't windy, Tsukizakura still felt some pain in his face, and he looked up and found that it was not far from the top of the mountain, and the dawn of victory seemed to be ahead.

The sound of breaking wind swept by, right between Tsukizakura's feet, and if Tsukizakura took another step, he would be shot.

"What, skeleton shooter!" the wrench pulled out his gun, they had encountered the undead who could shoot arrows, and the sinister ones hid behind, shooting an arrow every now and then, and they couldn't guard against it.

"No, it's people. Tsukizakura squinted, raised her right hand, and shouted, "Who are you? We have no ill will!" On the other side, his left hand was already attached to the hilt of the sword.

On the top of the mountain, there was a man with a bow, who was wearing a mask and a hat, only a pair of eyes were exposed, and his clothes were leather clothes, which were very poorly cut, and only some patterns were tattooed on his arms, which made the whole dress look a little more advanced. In addition to his bow and arrows, he also wore a short knife at his waist, and the man standing alone on the mountain was like the patron saint of the mountain.

"Outsiders are not welcome here, so leave quickly. "Although there are some differences in accents, they are still generally lingua franca, and Tsukizakura understands them.

Before Tsukizakura could reply, Mr. Malos stepped forward, his huge size surprised the man, and the arrow turned on him.

"Hello, descendant of the Knights of the Holy Seal, I am the priest of Maros of the Church of Morning Light, I have something to see your leader, please allow me to enter your territory!" With that, Mr. Malos couldn't wait to take out an emblem from his bosom and show it.

Although she couldn't see Mr. Marlos's face, Tsukizakura could feel the excitement in Mr. Marlos's words.

Instead of putting down his bow and arrows, the man raised his vigilance, "Why are you here?"

"It's just personal reasons, we don't mean it badly, please let us pass. Mr. Mallos bowed his head, looking very sincere.

Tsukizakura and the others gathered next to Mr. Marlos and looked around.

"There are others. Lin Mingfeng whispered.

"Probably ...... Three or four. "The wrench opened the safety of the gun so that it could be fired at any time. "I'm surrounded. ”

Tsukizakura could feel the breath of other people around her, all distributed on the mountain range, forming an enveloping trend.

Alice slipped her hand into her pocket, never taking her eyes off the man.

After a moment's stalemate, the man lowered his bow and arrows, and the tension relaxed.

"Walked one, probably to ask for instructions, right?"

"So, it's a play, right?"

Mr. Marlos raised his voice, "This knight, may I ask your name?"

Although she couldn't see the expression, she could sense that the man liked the title knight.

"My name is Wen Yu, not a knight, but a hunter. He pointed to Mr. Marlos and said, "Wait here, don't move!"

I don't know why, Tsukizakura always felt that what he said was a little strange, not the content, but the way - like the lines of a third-rate costume drama on TV.

But if they want to wait here, then wait. Tsukizakura sat down directly and flipped up her backpack.

"What are you doing?" asked Lin Mingfeng.

"Rest. Tsukizakura unpacked the jerky and picked out one, "Didn't he want us to wait, and if he was there, we could hand it over to him if the undead were there." ”

"Uh...... You trust that guy so much?"

"What else else?" Tsukizakura felt like she was giving up on herself.

The rest of the people thought about it, and this was the same reason, so they sat down on the spot like Yueying, some took out food, and some directly lay down to rest, and the original combat group immediately became the same as camping.

Anyway, you can't go, so it's better to be casual.

The hunter named Wen Yu obviously didn't expect the person in front of him to be so casual, he originally thought that Yue Ying and the others were going to make a move, and he had already pulled out the short knife, but now he had to insert the knife back and pretend that he didn't do anything.

"But it's too boring to wait like this~"

"So?"

"Do you want to draw ghost cards?" the wrench grinned as he pulled out his poker.

Lin Mingfeng, who was lying down, raised his hand and shook it, "Come less, I'm tired." ”

Alice clearly didn't want to play, and neither did Mr. Marlos.

"It's just two people...... Well...... "Wrench hung his head, but quickly regained his spirits," and I came up with a great idea. ”

"Huh?" As soon as Yue Ying asked a word, she was pulled up from the ground by a wrench, and was carried to Wen Yu at a trot.

"Didn't he tell us not to move!" Tsukizakura said.

"It's okay, it's okay, look at my friendly smile!" the wrench gave a thumbs up, "He's definitely not going to attack us~ rest assured!"

But what does Tsukizakura think, the wrench is laughing like a fool now......

It was unbelievable that this kind of giggle was actually very effective, Yue Ying could feel the aura of the hidden people, but they did not have killing intent, and in the same way, Wen Yu did not mean to attack, but watched them approach in silence.

"What's the matter?" Wen Yu asked lightly.

I said. Because of the relationship between trotting, the wrench spoke a little breathlessly, "Do you want to play ghost cards together?"

Not only Wen Yu, but Yue Ying was also stunned.
