Chapter 36: Birthday

Xuan Chen smiled helplessly and said, "Do you think that I have been wandering in the world for nearly a thousand years? If I am assessed according to the current wealth standard of the world, how can I be on the list of those rich!"

I am surprised that he is worth being on the rich list, but what surprises me even more is that he has been wandering in the world for nearly a thousand years.

I endured it and couldn't overcome my curiosity after all, so I lowered my voice and asked, "How old are you?" It seems that I guessed that two thousand eight years old may be really young!

Listening to my words, Xuan Chen frowned and thought about it but shook his head, I thought he didn't want to say it, but I was regretting it and listened to him say lightly: "I don't know, since I started to dimly realize that it should have been at least a hundred thousand years to cultivate a human form! Later, tens of thousands of years passed, and the time at that time had no specific meaning to me, so I never remembered it." It wasn't until I met her again that time began to make sense to me."

When Xuanchen said these words, he kept looking up at the sky, his eyes were deep and distant, as if he was looking at the reddish moon, and as if he was looking at a certain time and space through that bend of moonlight.

"Actually, I've always had a question" Seeing Xuan Chen look down, I smiled and said, "Could you and Mu Xin recognize the wrong person?"

Xuanchen looked at me fixedly and didn't answer.

I looked up at him too, and he said I had a strong soul, and I wondered if the one they were looking for was her from my past life.

After a while, Xuan Chen raised his hand and pulled my wind-blown hair behind his ear, and said in a soft but firm voice: "I will never mistake you"

I looked at him in amazement, but I didn't know how to react.

Regarding the relationship between me and Xuanchen, my parents acquiesced, although later Mr. Fan still asked me about the matter between Mu Xin, I can only say that the friendship between us has always been very pure, and it is really Teacher Fan that she thinks too much!

At this point, Mr. Fan finally gave up asking about my feelings, but he still emphasized that as a girl, I should be reserved and know how to love myself.

Of course, I know what Mr. Fan is worried about, nothing more than afraid that I will lose my heart and lose my body, but in the end, I will lose my wife and soldiers!

In the end, after I assured her that her children were definitely chaste and martyrs, Teacher Fan sighed and said that her daughter was too old to be a mother, so she stopped mentioning this topic.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was my birthday, and it was also the last day that my parents stayed with me in City B.

I asked for leave in advance, and I spent the whole day with my parents today, which was very plain, warm and happy!

In the evening, Sister Zhu Zhu Xiaorong Lin and Xuanchen, the titular boyfriend, helped me celebrate my birthday together.

This is the first time I have celebrated my birthday outside, because my birthday is on the first day of July, as long as there is no leap month in the first half of the year, my birthday is usually during the summer vacation, and I can always spend it at home.

In previous years, on my birthday, my parents would personally cook a sumptuous meal and buy a big cake to celebrate me, although I was not at home this year, my parents refused to wronged me, and specially booked a good restaurant and ordered a table of dishes.

The cake was bought by Zhu Zhu and the three of them, the chocolate mousse flavor is my favorite, and Xuan Chen's boyfriend, although in name, gave me a chic finger-shaped snake ring as a birthday gift.

My parents said that the gift was too expensive to let me accept it, Xuanchen said that the ring was made by him and was not valuable, but it was his mind, and my parents didn't want to say anything, so I had to accept it.

However, I think that regardless of whether the ring is really made by Xuan Chen himself, it is definitely not cheap!

The two red gems set in the snake's eyes alone look unusual, like rubies but much brighter than rubies, and the material of this ring is like silver and gold.

I asked Xuanchen what material it was, and he only said that I liked it. I don't want to ask in front of my parents, but I do like it.

At the end of the meal, when I cut the cake and lit the candles, although I was already twenty years old after my birthday, Zhu Zhu said that I was eighteen years old at any time, and insisted on lighting eighteen candles and inserting the candles in a very strange shape.

The lights were turned off in the box, and I stood in front of the cake and closed my eyes to make a wish.

The first wish is to hope that my parents are healthy and everything goes well, the second wish is to hope that Zhu Zhu Xiaorong and Sister Lin can be happy and worry-free every day in the future, the third wish I hope that Xuanchen and Mu Xin can get their wish, and the fourth wish is about me, I have thought about it for a long time but I don't know what to wish myself, and finally I hope that I can live safely.

The wish is very good, but it will not come true after all.

It happened very suddenly, so suddenly that everything happened the moment I blew out the candles, and the room was completely darkened, and I felt the air around me freeze and become sluggish and oppressive.

I was startled, and subconsciously wanted to go to my parents, but both hands were held at the same time. Although it was pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly, I could feel that it was two men's hands holding me, and two different men's hands.

I thought it was Xuanchen and my father, but as soon as my heart was relieved, the light in the room suddenly turned on.

I hurriedly turned my head to look, but I was stunned.

The person holding my left hand was not my father, who I thought he was, but Musin, who had disappeared for many days.

When I looked at him, he was looking at me too, with a stern look in his brow.

"Why are you here?"

Mu Sing did not answer, but looked behind me and said coldly: "You must get out of here immediately"

I turned my head along his gaze, and Xuanchen also looked cold.

I looked around the room and was shocked, "Where's my parents?"

Everyone was there, but only Mom and Dad were gone.

"I've sent them to a safe place" Musin looked at me, "Don't worry, they'll be fine" Although I believed Musin, I couldn't be reassured, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you send my parents?"

Mu Xin looked at me coldly, and said lightly: "It's better that only I know about this place, and I can promise you that as long as I live, they will be absolutely safe" After speaking, he didn't pay attention to me but said to Xuan Chen: "Your apartment is no longer safe"

After listening to Mousin's words, I did not dare to ask again, and it was obvious that the situation was urgent at the moment, and I could not ask any more.

Xuanchen glanced at Mu Xin with a cold expression and said, "I know", and suddenly pulled me to his side.

Before I could react, I heard him say: "Keep up", and the air around me was suddenly stirred and twisted to form a whirlpool, and the faces of Zhu Zhu Xiaorong and Sister Lin disappeared in front of my eyes in an instant.

When I was done thinking about it, Xuanchen and I suddenly disappeared in front of them, and we must have scared them out.

Just as I was thinking, the feeling of pressure around my body suddenly disappeared, and I hurriedly opened my eyes to look, and a golden light suddenly came into my eyes.

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the suburban villa where Xuanchen had taken me before!

The next moment, I saw four people appear out of thin air on the other side of the flower garden.

Yes, there are four people, Mu Xin, Zhu Zhu, Xiao Rong, and Sister Lin, there are many of them.

"Why did you bring them with you?" I said, looking anxiously at Musin.

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Zhu, who was originally about ten steps away from me, instantly came to my eyes, and then smiled at me and said, "If we don't come, who will protect you!"

Me: "......"

I was really shocked, shocked like never before.

I watched in disbelief as Xiao Rong and Sister Lin stood still in front of me, and then listened to Sister Lin say, "We are not ordinary people, and we have been staying by your side to protect you."

Aren't they mortals? Are they monsters?

I looked at the five people in front of me one by one, and it turned out that I was the existence of a non-race!

"Let's go in and talk"

Xuanchen turned around and entered the hall, and Zhu Zhu and Sister Lin followed.

Musin passed by me and said in a faint tone, "You'll know in a moment," and walked in.

I looked at them in a daze, not knowing how to react for a moment.

As soon as my hand was warm, I looked sideways and saw that it was Xiao Rong.

She held my hand and whispered, "Xiaoxiao, everyone didn't mean to hide it from you, we all wanted to protect your safety"

Looking at the worry on Xiao Rong's face, I suddenly remembered their reaction when I explained to them after I was kidnapped last time, although the reason I made up at that time was very far-fetched, but Zhu Zhu, a person who loves gossip so much, didn't ask much, even Xiao Rong, who has always been delicate, didn't ask much.

At the time, I thought I had deceived them with the reason I made up, but now it seems that it was because they knew what really happened that night, and the so-called excuse that Xuanchen told me later was just a deception to me!

"Let's go in, everyone is waiting for us"

I followed Xiao Rong into the hall in a daze.

Indeed, everyone is waiting for me, Xuan Chen and Mu Xin are each sitting on a set of single sofas, and Sister Lin and Zhu Zhu are sitting side by side.

As soon as I entered, everyone looked at me, but I subconsciously looked sideways, and at this moment I didn't know how to face them.

These people I thought I knew were unknown at all.

Xiao Rong pulled me to sit down when I heard Mu Xin say, "Are you ready for what you said before?"

After listening to Mu Xin's words, Sister Zhu ** and Xiao Rong both took out a thumb-sized white porcelain bottle from their bodies and handed it to Mu Xin.

"Tonight is the night of the new moon, and in fourteen days it will be the middle of the Yuan day, when the pylorus of the underworld will be opened, and we can only enter it at that time, and arrive at the Well of Reincarnation in Lethe before the hour."

As soon as Mu Xin's words fell, Zhu Zhu said: "Although the dark gate of the underworld will be opened, we don't know where that door is, and how can we get in?"

As soon as the words fell, I heard Sister Lin say, "Although we don't know, someone here knows!"

Xuanchen glanced at Sister Lin and said lightly: "I will take you in at that time."

Then Mu Xin looked at me, sighed with a complicated expression, and said softly: "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask."

I looked at Mu Sing, although I had heard all their conversations just now, I didn't understand what they were talking about or what they were going to do!

"I wonder what the hell happened tonight?"

That's what I want to know most at the moment!

"Someone cast a spell in that room tonight, and Zhu Zhu found out and set up a formation in time to notify me"

"They're targeting me, right?"

Musin nodded, "Yes, they want to take you"

"Why? Why do these people or these demons want to get me? Is it because of my soul? How is my soul different from others? What can they get from my soul?" I asked and looked at Musin quietly, I was sure he knew everything, and I thought he would give me an answer tonight.
