The night before leaving the Black Fire Clan, Lu Chen stayed alone in the priest's stone house, he had lived in this dim stone house for a long time, and this time he decided to leave, looking around, but found that there was actually no reluctance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Perhaps he has never had any feelings and nostalgia for everything in this wasteland, and sometimes, Lu Chen even feels that his coming to the Southern Xinjiang Wasteland may be just a joke of fate. When he stayed here, he didn't leave anything too good, probably only the seeds of hatred and all kinds of blood killing.

In addition to him, there is only Ah Tu in the dark stone house, and in the past year, this already huge black wolf seems to have gained weight again, probably because it is comfortable to eat.

Although the northern part of the wasteland is still barren in general, now the Black Fire tribe has unified the north, accommodating the four clans, and the sphere of influence has expanded rapidly, the territory is larger, and the food obtained is more than several times more than before. With the light of the black-robed priest, Ah Tu is really living the life of a fairy dog now, eating all day long, sleeping and waking up to eat, don't live too leisurely.

Originally, there was another figure in this stone house, which was the original maid Yezi. However, after Lu Chen selected her as a possible candidate for priesthood, Ye Zi left here and lived in a residence specially prepared for those newcomer priests.

Huo Yan had also discussed with Lu Chen about sending two more maids over, and joked that maybe the maids who were sent to him might become rare priests after a while.

Lu Chen directly refused this.

The night was cold, Lu Chen hadn't slept yet, he seemed to be more awake on this night than he had been in the past days and nights, and then he suddenly felt a little nostalgic for dreaming.

Some time ago, one night in this stone house, he suddenly had a dream, dreaming of the dead bald Tianlan Zhenjun and his young self, that childhood memory he thought he had forgotten, but found that it was still in his heart.

He found that he missed that dead bald head a little, but how would he react when he appeared in front of that person again? In this world, the only person Lu Chen couldn't see through was probably him.

Ah Tu was already asleep beside him, although this black dog had experienced all kinds of pain earlier, but now when he followed Lu Chen's side, he seemed to have completely let down his guard, entrusted everything to this master, and believed in him wholeheartedly.

Hmm, born lazy dogs......

Lu Chen smiled bitterly, touched the fur on Ah Tu's head with his hand, the tentacles were unusually soft and smooth, and then he thought of what Huoyan told him that day, the terrifying demon beast that had appeared in the secret path in the snowy mountain.

Lu Chen once asked Huo Yan why he came to that extremely dangerous snowy mountain and how he avoided that terrifying demon beast, but Huo Yan kept silent about it, and just swore to him, showing that what he said was absolutely true.

Lu Chen could see that Huo Yan should not be lying, but he could also expect that the danger of that desperate path should be unimaginably great, and it was likely that he would not be able to walk through it. It is precisely because of this that Huo Yan may also feel a little guilty in his heart, and has come to persuade him several times to let him stay here in the wasteland.

However, Lu Chen still decided to leave.

A long time ago, he always felt that he was alone, without worry, walking the world, unrestrained, and home everywhere, but it was not until he came to this southern wilderness and spent several years here that he woke up to the fact that there was still a yearning and nostalgia in everyone's heart.

His heart still yearns for the vast land of the northern human race, even if there are many people there who don't like him, hate him, and even want to kill him, he is still willing to live with the people there.

He didn't like the barbarians around him, even if the people in the north liked to intrigue and fight for power, but he still liked it.

He belongs to the Terrans, and that has never changed, and never will change.

There was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the house, and then someone stopped him, it was the Black Fire Guard guarding outside his stone house. Now, with the rapid increase in the strength of the Black Fire Tribe, as well as the many captives taken from foreign tribes, the number of Black Fire Guards is also growing rapidly, and now it has surpassed the number of warriors from the Black Fire Tribe, and it can be said that it is the most powerful force in the Black Fire Tribe.

Such a powerful force is enough to subvert everything, enough to destroy everything in this tribe, and it is probably precisely because of this that it has aroused the worries and dissatisfaction of those Black Fire Clansmen led by Huoyan.

Lu Chen could imagine how many excuses he said in Huoyan's mouth were high-sounding, how to pay attention to friendship dreams and ancestral glory, etc., but the worry about the powerful force of the Black Fire Guardian that he could not fully control may be the fundamental reason why he finally told Lu Chen that secret in advance and let him leave here.

Lu Chen was not surprised by this, in his unknown heart, in fact, he had intended to exert his strength in this direction from the beginning.

Most of the barbarian people, especially the barbarians here in the northern part of the wasteland, are still simple-minded, even if there is an outlier like a fire rock occasionally, but compared to intrigue, for the time being, it is still not as good as Lu Chen, who has been tempered in the Demon Sect for countless days since he was a child.

Of course, in the years after he left, Lu Chen didn't care what would become of these people.

There was a low voice of inquiry outside the door, but the sound of the answer made Lu Chen a little surprised, he originally thought that it would be Huoyan who came at this time, because there was another very important matter, Huoyan still did not get an answer from him. But now it seemed that Igneous Rock was more patient than he had expected.

The person who came was a barbarian woman, and she was also his maid, Yezi.

When Ye Zi walked into this dimly lit stone house, she couldn't help but have a moment of trance. This year was also a time of great change for her, and when she was told that day that the black-robed priest had named her as a priest candidate, Ye's mind was even blank.

Even after all this time, and despite the fact that he had begun to come into contact with and initially master the power of witchcraft, Ye Zi was still extremely in awe of the black figure. But when she walked into the room, after the initial nervousness, she quickly felt a sense of intimacy, as if it were ...... Feeling like home?

This feeling made her feel strange, but she still carefully gathered her mood, came to the seat of the black-robed priest, and knelt down silently.

Lu Chen glanced at her and said, "I told you, you are also a tribal priest now, so you don't have to sit like a maid in front of me anymore." ”

Ye Zi's body moved, and after hesitating for a moment, he still knelt on the spot and said, "I, I'll be like this." ”

Lu Chen didn't care about her anymore, and said, "Is there something wrong? At this time, no one else came, only you suddenly came to see me." ”

Yezi's face was a little blurred in the darkness, and she could feel the black shadow in front of her, and the lazy dog on the other side. As a priestess, she is actually qualified to know some secrets now, including tomorrow, the person in front of her and this dog will be leaving.

As for where to go, no one will say, and no one dares to ask, probably in this tribe, only the patriarch Huoyan alone knows.

Seeing that Ye Zi was a little slurred, Lu Chen frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

Ye Zi was snorted by him, and suddenly became a little panicked, after so long, in front of this black-robed priest, she still seemed to be the timid maid she was at the beginning, and her majesty towards him was still irresistible, and the fear of him seemed to be like a shadow that could not be shaken off.

She nervously clasped her hands, hesitated for a while, and then whispered, "The patriarch asked me to come over." ”

"Huh?" Lu Chen's eyes flashed slightly, as if he was a little surprised by this answer, and then he seemed to think of something, but he smiled faintly and said, "It seems that I still think highly of him......"

"Huh?" Ye Zi asked in amazement without hearing his words clearly.

Lu Chen didn't answer her, and said, "What did he ask you to come over?"

Ye Zi hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, the patriarch said that you still have a very important thing here, which has not yet been handed over to him." If you're leaving tomorrow morning, let me come and get it and bring it to him. ”

Lu Chen's face was flat, sitting in the shadows, without the slightest intention of returning things, and he didn't speak.

Ye Zi waited for a while, only to feel that there was an invisible pressure gradually permeating the darkness around him, making people feel faintly breathless.

"Whatever he wants, let him come and ask me himself. After a long time, suddenly there was a sentence in the darkness.

Ye Zi glanced at him a little blankly, but he didn't dare to disobey this black-robed priest who had always been mysterious and terrifying, and nodded again and again. But soon, she heard the voice of the black-robed priest say, "By the way, since you happen to be here, I have something to give you by the way." ”

Ye Zi was taken aback, raised his head and said in astonishment, "My lord, what is it?"

Lu Chen raised his hand, and a white thing flew out of the darkness and threw it at the leaf.

Ye Zi reached out to catch it, her tentacles were cold, and she looked down her eyes, and suddenly, her whole body trembled, and an indescribable complex color appeared on her face, including surprise, pain, hatred, fear, and more sadness.

In her hand was a white bone mask, which was the ancestral relic that Lu Chen snatched from her clan on the day the Shenmu tribe was wiped out.

"My lord, what are you ......?" asked Ye Zi in a trembling voice.

"Well, this is something from your Shenmu tribe, you can keep it. Lu Chen's voice sounded a little erratic, but it seemed to have a deeper meaning, and he said lightly, "Perhaps, you will be able to use it in the future." ”
