Chapter 32: Smoke and Snow City
"Look!" Lin Ling pointed to a few broken trees on the right hand and said. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"There are traces of fighting here and there. Hurry, hurry up, hurry up and catch up. After Lan Xue finished speaking, she ran forward.
"Collapse!" The boy whispered.
"Whoa, whoa......," the ice demon in front of the boy collapsed in struggle and screaming, and most of its body vanished.
"Whew...... Whoop......" the boy gasped violently, "It's really disgusting, it's really annoying to know that you can't beat me, and you still come to die." Call...... I'm really tired, look, it seems that the power of the bloodline can't be used at will, no, it should not be used casually before awakening. After the boy said to himself, he sat down on the ground and began to recuperate.
"Quick, that roar is gone, let's go faster." Lan Xue urged.
"Huh! You see, there are many traces of a fight ahead, and there, there...... Luo Pingfan! Lin Ling was surprised.
"Luo Pingfan! Luo Pingfan! The women shouted.
The boy opened his eyes, looked back, and saw that all three of them were carrying a large bag, and they were all running towards him in full order.
The boy wiped the sweat from his head, and said in his heart that it would be a pity not to become a soldier.
"You're here!" The boy said flatly.
"Well, we're here, are you okay!" Lan Xue asked.
"I ...... It's okay, go back! ”
"You, what are you talking about, we are here to find you, we are going to go with you. Also, if you go back with us, we'll go back. Lin Ling said.
"Are you afraid that you won't be able to return to reality? If that'......" The boy said this, and with a flick of his hand, he threw the castle he was holding before between Lan Xue and Lin Ling, "You guys take it!" If I find the Celestial Ruins Stone, I'll look for you. ”
"Luo Pingfan, what kind of person are you and us, we don't want this broken castle, we just need you to go with us now!" Lin Ling said with some excitement.
"Then take it too, and keep it for me. I've decided to take this shortcut, so come with me if you will! With that, the boy walked forward.
Lan Xue picked up the castle and followed, and Lin Ling and Feng Ziyue also hurriedly ran a few steps to chase after it.
"Luo Pingfan, I thought about it carefully, and I felt that your smile seemed to be very reluctant at that time, and I was already sure that you were not laughing at me. You, do you have something sad about? Lan Xue and the boy walked side by side and asked.
"I didn't ...... What the. The boy looked up at the sky, and a few cute clouds were floating in the sky, and the sun shone through these clouds, and the boy was warm, "Hehe, it's nothing." ”
"Don't want to say it? It doesn't matter, but sometimes, how can you see the beauty of the world without stepping out of that shadow called loneliness! Right! After Lan Xue finished speaking, she winked playfully at the boy.
"Uh......" the boy looked at Lan Xue, "lonely...... Beautiful...... Oh, yes...... You're not wrong at all! The boy felt that he had been suppressing the mood, at this moment became a lot more relaxed, the boy looked at Lan Xue carefully, this was the first time he looked at her seriously, and found that the girl was quite good-looking, just like the cloud in the sky, giving people a cute feeling.
"You, what's wrong with you?" Lan Xue found the boy's gaze and asked with a little blush.
"Ah, nothing, nothing, it's just the first time I've looked at you so closely, and I feel ...... It feels like you're still ...... It's still pretty good. The boy blushed a little.
"Really? You think I'm good-looking, ...... Then I'll allow you to look at me more! Lan Xue lowered her head deeply, and then said shyly and quietly.
"Hey, what are you two whispering here?" Lin Ling suddenly stretched her head between Lan Xue and the boy at this time.
"Ahh Ling'er, you're scaring me, what can we whisper! Lan Xue said in a panic.
"Don't lie to me, I just heard it all. Senior sister, you said shyly, let Luo Ping take a look at yourself! Lin Ling deliberately raised her voice and said.
"I said Lin Ling, why did you suddenly appear behind us, did you deliberately follow us quietly?" The boy said suddenly.
"Yes, but even if I sneak up behind you, I'll make a sound, but you didn't hear it!" Lin Ling pursed her lips and said.
"Don't say it, let's go!" Lan Xue glared at Lin Ling, and then said to the boy.
"Well, good. Big sister, hurry up! Luo Pingfan turned around and shouted at Feng Ziyue.
After that, the speed of the four people increased a little.

…………
At this moment, the town that was still more than thirty miles away from the four of them, that is, Yanxue City, was already preparing to close the city gate.
"Come on! Hurry up, hurry up! Hurry up, everyone, the gates must be closed, and there are no more people alive in those villages outside the city. A man in silver armor said.
"Yes!" More than a dozen people behind him replied in unison.
Soon, more than a dozen people had climbed the city walls.
"Close the gates!" The man in the silver armor from before shouted.
"Hey...... Yo, hey...... Yo ......"
"Boom la la ......"
There was a sound of chains. The man in silver armor looked at the rising drawbridge, then turned to look in the direction of the center of the city, where there was a large spire-shaped building, "Brother, this time, can we stop it!" ”
"Come on, boys, eat!"
"Mother-in-law, what are you eating this time?"
"Ahem, this time, let's eat sweet potatoes."
"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, when can we go to the back mountain to play?"
"Mother-in-law, are there all big monsters outside the city now?"
"Mother-in-law, I'm homesick. Woohoo......"
…………
The man in silver armor stood on the towering city wall, looking at a dilapidated building not far from the city wall, watching the children inside ask all kinds of questions, and looking at their little faces crying or laughing......
"Ymir, what are you doing standing here by yourself? Ahem"
"Huh? Mother-in-law, I'm just...... Just looking, looking at those clouds. ”
"Oh? Look at the clouds, those clouds, ahem...... It's really beautiful! ”
"Mother-in-law, do you think those clouds are a family?"
"A family, ahem, it's really alike! Let's go, eat first! The mother-in-law kindly touched Ymir's head.
…………
…………
At this time, the sky has become dark, and a few patrols have walked by from time to time on the Smoke and Snow City, and at the edge of the city wall, there are several watchtowers, and the people on the towers have been dutifully probing the surroundings, and if they find ice demons, they will quickly send out signals.
And at this moment, the soldier on a watchtower some distance from the city gate noticed that four figures appeared in the distance, he swallowed his saliva, and held the signal flare tremblingly in his hand, if he was sure that the four figures were ice demons, he would launch the signal flare.
"It's close, it's close, what the hell is it!" The soldier wiped the cold sweat from his head.
"Is this the city?" Lan Xue looked at the tall city wall not far away and said with some surprise.
"It's finally here, by the way, big sister, where is the city gate, why didn't I see it." Lin Ling asked.
"Hehe, you come with me." As she spoke, Feng Ziyue took the lead and walked towards the city gate.
And as a few people walked away, the soldier on the watchtower was obviously relieved, "Alas, it turned out to be a human!" Strange, how could they appear here, aren't they afraid of ice demons? ”
…………
"Here we are." Feng Ziyue said.
"But the gates are closed!" Lin Ling said.
"Hey, please open the door and let us in, we're human!" Feng Ziyue shouted at the city wall.
"You're human!" One of the soldiers on the city wall said in shock.
"Hey, dude, don't be surprised, go and lower the rope ladder so they can come up." A soldier next to him said. "Hey, you guys down there, I'm sorry, we can't open the city gate now, so you can climb up the rope ladder."
Luo Pingfan and the others looked at the rope ladder that the soldier pointed to, and they all looked at each other helplessly, "There's no way, let's go!" Feng Ziyue said. So, several people climbed up the rope ladder.
"Where are you? It's so lucky to have walked here intact, haven't you all met the Ice Demon? After a few people had gone up to the city wall, the soldiers above asked.
Without waiting for a few people to answer, a very fat man interjected and said: "Zhang Fat, what nonsense are you talking about, just look at their appearance and know that they haven't touched the ice demon, otherwise how can they not look embarrassed at all!" ”
"Damn, you fat boy, what you say is nonsense." After the man named Zhang Pang finished speaking, he said to the boys, "I'm glad that you made it to this town alive, this town is currently the safest place in this Baixue County." I guess you're here because you're helpless after your hometown was destroyed, uh, I'm sorry, I mentioned your sadness. Then, that's it, from there you can go down the walls and enter into the city, and I hope you can find a place to stay. ”
After speaking, Zhang Pang pointed to a staircase not far away that led to the bottom.
"Huh? Oh, thank you. The boy said strangely.
…………
After a while, several people's feet were already on the ground, and Feng Ziyue suddenly said to the boys: "Come with me, let's find a place to live first." ”
After the boys heard this, they followed behind Feng Ziyue. Along the way, several people did not see the prosperous scene, but they saw people who were in a very low mood, and even children lost the liveliness that they should have at this age.
"Strange, why are the inhabitants so dull?" After looking at it for a long time, Lin Ling finally couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows, look at those shops over there, they're all closed." The boy accosted him. Obviously, the boy is also very strange, but at the same time, the boy is also curious about such a large town.
"Stupid, that's not a store, it's a hotel." Lin Ling corrected loudly. Then he continued: "It's really strange, why is the hotel closed? Is it full of people, that's why it's closed? ”
"It's possible." Lan Xue said suddenly.
"Don't think about it, if you're curious, just ask someone later." Feng Ziyue turned back to Lan Xue and Lin Ling and said. "Uh, where's Brother Luo Pingfan?"
"Isn't that what it is...... Oops, why are people gone? Lin Ling said with some panic.
"There it is!" Lan Xue turned around and pointed to a house behind several people.
"What is he looking at under that house?" After Lin Ling finished speaking, she ran over.
Lan Xue and Feng Ziyue also ran over, and when they reached the boy's side, they looked in the direction that the boy had been staring at.
"Please give me some food, really, just a little." A little boy in tattered clothes said to a middle-aged man.
"Impossible, don't dream, I know you are begging for food to give your bastard daddy, that's impossible, not only me, but other people, will not give you a little food. Let's go! After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the house, and the door was also closed with a "bang".
The little boy lowered his head, clenched his fists tightly, and walked towards another house.
"Knock knock...... Knock knock. ”
"Is anyone home?"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The little boy waited for a long time and no one opened the door, so he walked to another house, this one was the one next to Luo Pingfan.
"Knock knock...... Knock knock. ”
The little boy looked at the light shining from the window of the house, and felt so warm that tears could not help but flow from his eyes.
