The evil Jiao was suddenly frightened, and when he turned around, he saw Meng Zhize and Xuanyuan Ling Ling behind him.

The angry evil Jiao, with a pair of eyes the size of copper bells, instantly spewed out a fiery snake from its mouth.

Seeing that the fire snake was about to injure Xuanyuan Lingling, who fell to the ground, Meng Zhize rushed towards Xuanyuan Lingling at an extremely fast speed without thinking, and at the same time used the fighting energy of his whole body to condense into a defensive shield.

......

In the next second, I heard Meng Zhize's scream of "Ah ......", the fire snake had already entangled the Douqi defense shield, and the flames scorched Meng Zhize's back and heart.

Meng Zhize didn't care about the pain of the burning in his back, he quickly picked up Xuanyuan Lingling's delicate body with both hands, and didn't dare to stop at all, so he rushed forward at the fastest speed.

Seeing that the fire snake had hit the small human who wanted to sneak attack him, the evil Jiao was complacent, but suddenly saw the young man who was burned by the fire snake, and was running away with the girl who fell to the ground, and it was furious in its heart, and immediately roared sharply: "The cunning and despicable human will let you become the food in my belly today......

As soon as the evil Jiao finished speaking, he let out a low and penetrating roar, and immediately chased after Meng Zhize and the others.

......

Meng Zhize clenched his teeth, because he endured the huge pain in his back, at this moment, beads of sweat the size of soybeans had appeared on his forehead, and he hugged Xuanyuan Lingling tightly with both hands, and ran in some places that could be covered.

Even so, Meng Zhize and Xuanyuan Ling Ling still came close a few times and were about to fall into the bloody mouth of the evil Jiao.

The evil Jiao does not give up, and chases after him.

After running for a while, Meng Zhize gradually felt that his physical strength was exhausted, and he was soaked with sweat.

......

Seeing that the two of them were about to die in the mouth of the evil Jiao, Xuanyuan Ling Ling suddenly pushed Meng Zhize, and actually wanted to break free from Meng Zhize's arms, but he had no choice.

Meng Zhize's eyebrows furrowed, his hands holding Xuanyuan Ling Ling were tighter, he whispered to Xuanyuan Ling Ling, and said, "Ling Ling, what are you doing here?"

Although Meng Zhize said these words in his mouth, he didn't dare to relax at all, and he ran wildly all the way.

Xuanyuan Ling Ling saw that it was difficult to break free from Meng Zhize's arms, but her hands on Meng Zhize's neck loosened slightly, and she immediately whispered to Meng Zhize: "Brother Ze, you leave me behind and run for your life! If you continue like this, I will affect you." ”

"No, how can I abandon you, if you want to die, let's die together!"

Meng Zhize kicked and shhhh

When Xuanyuan Ling Ling heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and the hands holding Meng Zhize's arms tightened slightly, and he thought to himself: "Okay, if you want to die, we will die together."

Well...... If God has eyes and can let us survive, I Xuanyuan Lingling will follow you for the rest of my life......"

Although Meng Zhize ran like the wind, the evil chirping sound behind him kept sticking to him.

Just when the two of them were about to despair, Meng Zhize's feet suddenly stepped into the air, and his body quickly slid downward.

......

However, Meng Zhize ran all the way just now, but he didn't notice that there was a small pit under his feet.

This pit is at a slope angle, and the two of them fell into the deep pit, and they kept sliding, and they slipped down with a cup of tea, and the two of them landed on the ground.

......

In the dark cave, Meng Zhize lit a fire.

As soon as the fire fold was lit, it was almost blown out by a breeze blowing out of the cave, Meng Zhize hurriedly stretched out his hand to protect the fire fold, and said excitedly: "Since there is wind pouring into the cave, there must be other exits." ”

Xuanyuan Lingling also stood up at this moment, she patted the dust on her clothes, and smiled while arranging her somewhat messy hair: "It was so dangerous just now!"

Meng Zhize nodded and said, "Well, let's hurry up and find an exit." ”

Xuanyuan Ling Ling replied and followed closely behind Meng Zhize. Thinking of the terrifying scene, Xuanyuan Ling Ling couldn't help but whisper to himself: "Eighteen years ago today, I came to this world, and today I almost lost my life, which can be described as a rebirth. ”

Meng Zhize inadvertently heard Xuanyuan Lingling's self-talk, and immediately stopped, turned his head to look at Xuanyuan Lingling and smiled: "Today is your birthday?"

Xuanyuan Lingling nodded, and said a little shyly: "It happens to be my eighteenth birthday, and this escape from death can be described as my second rebirth." ”

"Uh...... This time I was too rushed to prepare any birthday present for you. ”

Meng Zhize lowered his head a little embarrassed, and suddenly seemed to remember something, he suddenly raised his head and took out a jade jade bracelet from his arms, and immediately stuffed it into Xuanyuan Lingling's hand, and said: "This jade jade bracelet is something I carry with me, I heard my mother say that it was given to her by my father, and then my mother gave it to me, saying that bringing this jade jade bracelet can ward off disasters and evil spirits, and keep me safe forever." ”

After Xuanyuan Lingling listened to Meng Zhize's words, she hurriedly stuffed the jade jade bracelet in her hand back into Meng Zhize's hand, and said, "This bracelet is your family heirloom, it is too valuable, I am a little yellow-haired girl, but I can't afford it." ”

Meng Zhize was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled: "Although this bracelet is something I carry with me, isn't it a shame for me as a big man to carry this jade bracelet on my hand?"

After Meng Zhize said this, he hurriedly stuffed the jade bracelet into Xuanyuan Lingling's hand.

Xuanyuan Ling Ling pushed again: "It's a talisman given to you by your mother, how can I be embarrassed to accept it?"

Meng Zhize shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "My mother said that only by wearing this jade bracelet on your hand can you ward off disasters and evil spirits, how can I use this as a big man?"

Xuanyuan Ling Ling said: "It's too valuable, I really can't accept it." ”

Meng Zhize suddenly turned around and walked forward, and said with a smile: "It's rare to give a birthday gift, you just accept it, don't pull it around, be careful to break it, isn't it a pity?"

Xuanyuan Lingling let out a soft "um", chased after Meng Zhize, and said in a low voice: "Thank you!"

"Okay, you're welcome, take it with you and make sure you go home safely. ”

Meng Zhize did not look back, but continued to walk forward.

Xuanyuan Lingling's cheeks instantly heated, and a touch of crimson appeared.

It's just that the light in this cave is dim, and the brightness of the fire fold in Meng Zhize's hand is limited, so the crimson on Xuanyuan Ling Ling's face is not conspicuous.

"Did you bring a fire fold?"

Meng Zhize suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xuanyuan Lingling.

Xuanyuan Ling Ling had just taken the jade jade bracelet with him, but he didn't notice that Meng Zhize suddenly stopped and hit Meng Zhize right on his head.

But her red lips were impartial, and they were right on Meng Zhize's mouth.

Xuanyuan Lingling was startled, and hurriedly hid to the side, but he didn't dare to look up at Meng Zhize, lowered his head and nodded gently, and said shyly with that weak mosquito moaning voice: "Bring it." ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ”

Meng Zhize looked at Xuanyuan Lingling with an embarrassed expression, apologized to Xuanyuan Lingling, and then continued: "I'm worried that the exit is far away, and I'm afraid that my fire won't burn for long." ”

"It's okay, I have a lot of fire crackers here. Xuanyuan Lingling still lowered his head.

......

The two of them were speechless all the way, Xuanyuan Ling Ling gently stroked the jade bracelet in his hand, and looked up at the back of the young man in front of him from time to time.

......

Unexpectedly, ten years later, this jade bracelet made her recall that day again.

In that long, dimly lit cave, the two of them walked one after the other, as if they had walked for a long, long time......

It was a dark and happy road, what a nostalgic one!

......

Life is like this, if you miss it, you will pass away......

......

Some stories don't have to be told......

There is some sadness that not everyone will understand......

Some of the past is buried deep in my heart and dusty, but in the end, some of the past is lingering and cannot be erased......

......

The road of life is full of unknowns and mysteries.

There seems to be no end in sight.

The hardships and ups and downs that have been gone through, perhaps only everyone will know better......

......

In the city, in the general's mansion, in the empty hall of the general's mansion, the doors and windows are still closed at the moment.

Xuanyuan Lingling's thoughts at this moment formed a net messily, and the net became tighter and tighter, reaching her heart, and her heart ached faintly.

She shivered a little and stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist, crystal tears, like pearls with broken threads, endlessly rolling down her cheeks.

......

Suddenly seeing the solemn and solemn protector mage, he was inexplicably sad and weeping, and Ye Qianxun, the general of Zhenbei on the side, was suddenly startled.

He looked at Wen Decun at a loss, but saw Wen Decun sitting in his place with a calm face, as if Xuanyuan Lingling suddenly burst out of strangeness, he had already known it......
