Chapter 08: The Beginning of Burning Flame City
Suddenly, Ji Xia, who had no eldest brother and second brother, was a little panicked. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although over the years, Ji Xia has not had much contact with his eldest brother and second brother in the Ji Yang realm, and sometimes he has not seen each other for several lifetimes, but Ji Xia knows that these two people have always been in the Ji Yang realm, and they will help them carry it no matter what happens to them.
But now that the two of them are suddenly gone, Ji Xia only feels that the great pressure is pressing on him, and his once solid barriers have all collapsed.
Ji Xia touched the white dragon in his sleeve, thinking that it would leave him soon, and he would be alone at that time, Ji Xia couldn't help but cry.
"Crying for what? It's going to be your home field soon, so I should cry. Seeing Ji Xia's weeping Zhongqiu, he sighed, and he didn't have to think about it to know that there were so many immortals in Burning Yan City now, and he must be more than lucky to go.
Although Zhongqiu had a Demon Yuan Pearl, Zhongqiu was afraid that she would not be able to go back after going back like this, and she was afraid that she would be directly bombarded by the immortals in Burning Flame City as soon as she soared.
"Are you scared?" Ji Xia asked.
"Nonsense." Mid-autumn replied.
"I promise you, I won't hand you over." Ji Xia looked at Zhongqiu and said, "But you have to follow my second brother's orders, and you can't declare our identity to the outside world." ”
Zhongqiu looked at Ji Xia with some surprise and smiled: "I can't ask for it." ”
Ji Xia is in a better mood, and Mid-Autumn is also in a better mood. The two women seem to have become friends now, and if they were now in a boudoir without any haze, they would probably talk privately all night.
It's just that now, both of them seem to be walking on the edge of the cliff of fate, and they will fall if they are not careful, and they have no time to care about anything else. And Zhongqiu just wants to know who this only person she relies on on on the edge of the cliff is, and whether she will one day regret pushing herself down.
"Ji Xia, what is your identity?" Zhongqiu suddenly asked.
"You guessed it." Ji Xia guessed that the other party had already guessed, and in the past few days, Ji Xia has really become more and more sophisticated.
"That white dragon is not simple, even if I am in StarClan, I also know that the pure color dragon has always been a noble breed. The Yun Clan is respected for white, a pure white dragon, but without a prominent net worth, such an identity is not difficult to guess. Zhongqiu said.
Ji Xia smiled and said, "It's actually hard to guess such an identity, after all, few people know what a pure white dragon means, and few people know that my net worth is not prominent." The reason why you can guess is because you are also such an identity in Zhongqiu, and your black phoenix is ironclad proof. ”
"No wonder, you are so smart, your talent in the Heavenly Chess Building is so much better than mine." Zhongqiu sighed, the gap between the same Dao heart and Dao body was so big.
"You're wrong again, I'm not more talented than you. It's that I learned to play chess a long time ago, and you were a beginner that day, so how could you be my opponent. Ji Xia said, in fact, the talents of the two are really similar, but their fates are too different.
"Okay. The last question, you can guess why you still don't tell your eldest brother and second brother. Zhongqiu asked unwillingly.
Ji Xia smiled, feeling that Zhongqiu was so stupid: "Because the second brother told me quietly." ”
What the? Zhongqiu's heart was shocked, Ji Bin had always been at odds with her, but why didn't he just hand her over to the Yun Clan? For more than half a month, Zhongqiu has been very proud, proud that she successfully hid her true identity, and relied on the Ji family brothers and sisters to cheat and cheat. Zhongqiu already knew Ji Bin's identity, and even guessed Ji Xia's identity in recent days, but the other three still didn't know anything about her.
Now it seems that Ji Bin has already seen through it, but he is hiding his true identity, and he is the one who thinks he is smart.
"Who the hell is your second brother?" Zhongqiu asked.
"My second brother is my second brother, he has been my second brother for as long as I can remember." Ji Xia replied, "If you want to say who he is, the reader." ”
"What an incomprehensible person, aren't you afraid of Ji Xia around such a person?" Zhongqiu asked.
"If someone is good to you, you don't need to see through, you just need to know that he will be good to you." Ji Xia smiled slightly, Ji Bin had never harmed her, how could she be afraid.
Between questions and answers, Zhongqiu suddenly felt that his always smart self was like an idiot in front of Ji Xia, asking some childish questions.
This may be due to the fact that Midautumn does not come into contact with people.
Mid-autumn has asked enough questions about Ji Xia, then it's time for Ji Xia, and Ji Xia also wants to know something about this ally on the edge of the cliff, so as to make the alliance stronger.
"Who did you grow up with?" Ji Xia's first question.
"I said, I grew up alone." Zhongqiu replied with a smile.
"No way, man is not a beast, it is impossible for a man to grow up. There must be someone who teaches you to speak, who teaches you to read, who teaches you magic, who teaches you a lot of things, who teaches you to blend into the human world. It is impossible for a person to be born with these things. Ji Xia said.
"Okay." Zhongqiu knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, but since Ji Xia had said so much, for the sake of fairness, he also said something: "I had an elder brother before I was six years old, and my brother never went back when the Star Clan and the Cloud Clan Buried Demon Mountain fought that year. ”
"That same year, you got a black phoenix." Ji Xia said with a smile.
"Hmm." Zhongqiu nodded, the fates of the two were so similar.
"Does he like you?" Ji Xia asked, Yun Yang doesn't like her, it's normal, who made her Ji Xia have a black face.
"I like it." Zhongqiu replied shyly, "That black phoenix was personally handed over to me by him, and since that day he has often come to the Zhongyuan Realm to accompany me. Since then, I have often been alone and phoenix in the Zhongyuan Realm, but I look forward to his arrival every day, and he always lives up to my heart. ”
Ji Xia suddenly felt that there was not enough face for people, and she didn't know whether her face should be used to be happy for Zhongqiu or to be sad for herself. So Ji Xia's face had a very complicated expression, as if to say: The fates of the two are so different.
Yun Yang had never been to Ji Yang Realm to find Ji Xia, and Ji Xia even thought that it might be Yun Yang who had come to Ji Yang Realm, but he looked at her from a distance first, and then stopped coming after being disappointed.
"Why did you come down?" Ji Xia asked, thinking that Zhongqiu might be because he really wanted to find that person.
"Alas, I was forced by my father-in-law." Mid-Autumn sighed.
The two are quite similar in this regard, almost in unison: "You are the same?" ”
The two women looked at each other and smiled tacitly, and when they had laughed enough, they put on their cloaks and drove the carriage slowly into Burning Flame City. There were no soldiers at the door, which was beyond Ji Xia's expectations, and then he thought about it, the gods don't like to be searched.
The two of them entered the city, and felt that Burning Yan City was really lively, Burning Yan City, as the capital of Yan Country, itself was many times larger than a small city like Liangcheng, and in the past few days, many immortals and many people who came to congratulate each other have become even more lively.
Ji Xia's carriage was too annoying, so he hurriedly found an inn to live in, Ji Xia deliberately chose a room by the window, and then sat down in the house with Zhongqiu.
The two women just wanted to drink saliva, and Xiao Er, who was smiling all over his face, carried the teapot into the room.
"The two guest officers aren't immortals, are they?" Xiao Erdui said with a smile.
Ji Xia and Zhongqiu looked at this little two, seventeen or eighteen years old, a little older than themselves, but they didn't know how much stronger their cultivation in terms of compliments was than themselves.
"No, we're businessmen." Ji Xia said, "A merchant from Hammer Iron City." ”
"Oh." Xiao Er was a little disappointed, "Then I don't know what the two guest officers did." ”
"This time we don't come to do business, we just come to see the gods, my sister and I go first, and the two brothers come later." Ji Xia said, and then took out a silver ticket of ten taels, "You remember to leave us a good guest room when the time comes, and you want to be good." ”
Xiao Er took the silver ticket and asked, "Dare to ask when my brother will come?" ”
Ji Xia calculated, there are still five days left on the day of Yunyang's wedding, so four days is good.
"Four days."
"This ......" Xiao Er was a little helpless, "The deposit is not enough, the business is booming these days, and ten taels of silver are not enough." ”
Ji Xia smiled: "These ten taels of silver are not a deposit, I will pay the deposit at that time, these ten taels are for you, and we two girls will have to work for you if it is inconvenient for many things." ”
"Whatever the guest officer tells me to do." Xiao Er praised with joy, he really didn't expect that the ten taels of silver were his own, and he was so happy that he told the truth: "This time, I really believe that the two of you are not immortals." ”
"Oh, why?" Zhongqiu asked suspiciously.
"The immortals from the city are all dressed in tatters these days, and there is no silver or two, that is called a poor sour, who of us mortals would have thought that the immortals are like that, how can they be as generous as the two of you, they must be people." Xiao Er said happily, heh, the fairy has even become a curse.
"The silver ticket is hidden, don't let the shopkeeper find out, go down and bring us something to eat." By the way, no one can enter this room without our permission, and it is inconvenient for us two women. Ji Xia said.
"Howler!" Xiao Er shouted and went out to order someone to cook.
Zhongqiu looked at Xiao Er, who pushed the door away, and mocked: "Silver has become something better than Yuanzhu." ”
"The people of the Nether Realm can't use the Yuan Bead in the first place, and silver is of course the best thing here." Ji Xia explained, the two chatted a little more, and waited until the food below was delivered.
In one room, Ji Xia and Zhongqiu were eating on the side, and Bai Long and Hei Feng were also released, eating big gulps on the side of the meal.
After eating, Ji Xia called Xiao Er to clean up, and then gave a deposit for the other room. Ji Xia and Zhongqiu, who had nothing to do, lay on the bed and watched the white dragon and the black phoenix fighting on the two of them.
Ji Xia was thinking about how to go to the palace to see Yun Yang, how to explain his identity, and how to return the white dragon to Yun Yang and then say that he would not marry if he dissolved the marriage contract.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a shout outside: "The princess has arrived, and the idlers have retreated!" ”
Ji Xia instantly became energetic, but he didn't expect that the encounter with that person would be so simple and direct.
Ji Xia sat up suddenly, because she had been lying down for a long time and got up too quickly, her head was a little dizzy, and she quickly took two deep breaths, Zhongqiu looked at her with some concern, Ji Xia signaled that Zhongqiu was okay, she looked at the window, knowing that Yun Yang was about to walk outside the window.
Ji Xia called out to the white dragon with some trembling and slowly walked towards the window, as if walking towards fate.
