Chapter 20: Border City?
The night is dark and the wind is high, and no one knows that at this moment on the edge of southern Xinjiang, the iron horses that have always been black are like a group of black ghosts, rushing silently.
They are like lone wolves in the night, destroying everything that can be destroyed, vowing to vent their original arrogance and unruliness, because of their arrival, a war that swept the southern Xinjiang is also quietly brewing.
When the wind and rain are coming, there is a city that has stood for hundreds of years on the land of Luoguo in southern Xinjiang, and it is also the gateway to the southern part of Luoguo - the border city.
And at this moment, on the street of the border city, a strange figure is walking aimlessly forward.
The man's eyes were revealing endless confusion and shock, and he was the guy who crawled out of the dead branches and leaves under the abyss of the mountains behind the Black Wind Village.
Of course, it was he who brought out the Xizhu who fell into the abyss in a posture that ordinary people could not imagine.
"Luo Guo?"
Now, he finally began to have no doubts about his environment, but he never understood what kind of force had brought him to this strange world, and even if he thought back to what he had learned in his life, there had never been any record of this kingdom in the history of the world before him.
The more he pondered and recalled, the more his brows tightened, and in his memory, he once entered a strange ancient underground palace with a group of strange people, and discovered a secret that was enough to shock the world, and completely subverted their previous cognition.
"What the hell is going on!"
Suddenly he stopped, looked up at the night sky in this foreign land, suddenly clenched his fists, only to feel a cold wind blowing around him, and he gradually realized that he had an incredible power after awakening.
"It's corpse poison!"
When his eyes slowly closed, he may have an answer in his heart, the existence buried in the underground palace is too terrifying, and all the people who entered the underground palace with him before he fell unconscious have all been killed, only he was injured by the existence in it, and then walked to the deepest part of the underground palace in the boundless darkness, and then he heard a strange sound and saw a strange door.
So all his thoughts returned to that sentence: "Thousands of years of ancient and modern, in the soul opening realm!"
The deepest secrets of the dungeon were completely opened to him, and he completely lost all consciousness after stepping through the gates, and at the same time completely left the civilized world he was familiar with.
The end of it all, or a new beginning, until the hapless guy showed up, everything changed completely.
......
A night full of restlessness and confusion, spent quietly in different places by different people.
It was in the unknown cave again, when the quiet night passed, a strange smile gradually appeared on the face of the young man who was carrying his baggage, it seemed that he had some interesting strange dream, and just as he collected his body, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
His brows furrowed slightly in the confusion, and a flickering light began to appear in front of him, as if something was dangling in front of him.
He instinctively covered his eyes with his hands, but after a moment he suddenly remembered something, and saw that his eyes opened suddenly, and then suddenly a piercing scream rang out in the cave.
In front of him, Xizhu didn't know when he had woken up in advance, and at this moment Xizhu was wearing the clothes he had covered him, and he was holding the sweet potato he roasted next to the fire last night, looking at himself while eating!
The young man woke up very suddenly, and both of them were startled, and when they reacted, they saw Xizhu quickly cover each other's mouths with his right hand.
"What's it called!"
Xizhu said a little impatiently, but the next moment he was quickly pushed away by the young man, and then saw the other party get up suddenly, and retreated towards the side of the cave and looked at him defensively.
"I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect to meet you in a place like this!"
Xi Zhu continued to speak with a little seriousness while eating sweet potatoes, and at the same time looked at the young man in front of him with a malicious expression.
Speaking of this person, it was a narrow road, it turned out that this young man was no one else, wasn't this the clumsy stupid thief he met when he first went to the Xu clan mansion in Naqi County!
"You...... What are you going to do?"
The other party saw Xizhu's reaction, and asked a little hesitantly;
"Last Night......
Xizhu was about to speak, maybe because he was in too much of a hurry and accidentally burped, so he continued: "You saved me?"
It's just that the guy didn't answer him, and the look of defensiveness on his face didn't subside.
"Huh?"
Xizhu told him that he didn't react, and then turned his head to look at him, the sweet potato in his hand had been eaten by him, and he threw away the last bit of sweet potato skin, and then put his finger into his mouth and sucked it twice.
"It's okay if you don't say it, since you saved me, then we will write off the previous grievances......"
Xizhu said, just seeing that he was so happy when he said it, the expression on the other party's face did not change in the slightest.
"Are you a stammer? No, you weren't like this when Xu Fuwai saw you!"
Xizhu frowned, looked back at the cave and said to himself.
"You...... You're dumb!"
Just when Xizhu was puzzled, the other party finally spoke, but his voice sounded a little delicate, and it seemed a little too weak, not like a thief.
"Hmmm......"
Hearing that the other party finally spoke, Xizhu seemed to realize something, and then suddenly clasped his hands, and then after thinking about it, he stretched out his right hand to his chin again and scratched it.
"Well, then I ask you, where is this?"
"You...... You don't know where this is when you come here?"
The young man's expression suddenly became a little strange.
"Don't bother, I know what you're doing, say I'm still in a hurry!"
Xizhu showed impatience on his face, as if he had forgotten who saved him yesterday, in fact, although Xizhu was a hanger on weekdays, this guy's heart was not bad.
The reason why he desperately wants to know what kind of place this place is because he is now a little blindsided, and he finally met a seemingly normal guy, but he still has some holidays with himself, which is really providential.
"Are you from Qi County?"
Seeing Xizhu's reaction, the guy hesitated and said in some surprise;
"Qi County, I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, I am the son of Xizhu in Dazhu Village, Qi County!"
Xizhu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately put on a look of spirit, and his tone was a little more confident, and he was about to continue, but he was choked by the young man's words.
"Then what are you doing in the border city?"
"Border City...... What border city are you talking about?"
As if he had caught something from the other party's words, Xizhu suddenly asked eagerly.
"This is the border city, I take the small road, this is not far ahead will merge into the official road ahead, if I remember well, I can reach the border city in half a day!"
The young man looked at Xizhu like he was looking at a fool.
"Border City, is it so close?" Xizhu was startled and muttered in a low voice;
"Near?"
The other party looked at Xizhu with some surprise again, and then the wariness on his face faded a lot.
"It stands to reason that we have only set off for half a day, and it is only a day's journey if we count these tosses, is it a long way?"
Xizhu didn't answer the guy, but suddenly frowned again and began to mumble quietly.
"You...... You're not sick, are you?"
"You're sick, I'm going back, show me the way!"
Xizhu suddenly turned around, looked at the guy with wide eyes and said.
"I came out of Qi County, and the group was almost in the border city for more than ten days, do you want to go back now?"
"What!"
Xizhu was shocked again, seeing him turn around and run out of the cave, looking at the sunny outside at the moment, the mountains are splendid, and there is a small path winding in front of him, although there may not be many pedestrians coming and going, but this mountain path will not be fake.
"Oh my God~ what the hell is going on!"
Xizhu looked up at the sky and suddenly lost his voice and said.
How could he have known that there was a guy under the cliff that day, and it took him less than three hours to cross the distance of ordinary people for at least half a month, and came to the border city thousands of miles away.
If it weren't for the other party who finally felt that something was wrong, I am afraid that he would have appeared in the border city at this time.
Of course, everything that happened was enough to make Xizhu completely collapse, who would have thought that this fell off the cliff and did not die, but fell to this side of the city.
Ridiculous, this is just too ridiculous for any normal person!
