Chapter 30: The Oath
A burst of gobbling. Although the dry food in his hand didn't taste good, Lu Feng'er felt that it was the best thing he had ever eaten, and he was almost moved to tears.
"Slow down, be careful not to choke!" Mu Xu couldn't help but remind as he watched him eat.
"Hmm...... Well..... Good. Lu Feng'er responded while chewing on the steamed bun in her mouth, so vague that she could barely hear what she was saying.
Despite this, the speed at which he ate did not slow down, he actually wanted to, but he couldn't control himself. He felt a little embarrassed to be so out of shape in front of her, but he was indeed hungry.
"Hmm..... All right. Seeing this, Mu Xu could only drag his forehead, a little helpless.
After a long while, Lu Feng'er finally ate enough, her stomach became round, and it was revealed through her clothes, and he tried to take it back as much as he could, but he still failed.
"It's okay, I just ate so much, it'll be fine after a while, it's harmless to the body. Mu Xu looked at him like this and reminded him. But obviously she should have misunderstood why Lu Feng'er did this.
"Hmm...... That's good. Lu Feng'er responded with a dry laugh, in fact, he wanted to maintain a good image in front of her as much as possible. Although the previous image may be completely ruined, it is also a little bit that can be remedied.
"By the way, I haven't asked you which world you're from?" Mu Xu asked curiously when he saw him stop.
"Eh, is there any other world here besides this world?" Although Lu Feng'er thought that she had crossed over, she still had no idea what world she had.
"Yes, there is one that conflicts with us, we call it the Netherworld, and this is the only world we have ever contacted, right? Mu Xu explained.
"Netherworld? It's as if we don't call ourselves Netherworld. Lu Feng'er was taken aback, if it was really from there, she didn't become a benevolent person before she succeeded, "You don't think I'm from the Netherworld, right?" he asked cautiously.
"Haha, don't worry, no, the witch is very sensitive to the breath of the netherworld, and I will be sure as soon as you come. Besides, there is no human race in the netherworld, and the master over there is the demon race, that's what we call it. Because the two worlds themselves are in opposition to each other, the well of time is absolutely repulsive to this. Mu Xu smiled confidently, "Did you have any references before you came here?"
"Well, the Great Wall!" Lu Feng'er suddenly shouted, "I know there is a Great Wall!" This prehistoric relic left a deep impression on him, but why he went to the Great Wall, and what he saw, he couldn't remember for a while.
"The Great Wall, are you talking about that one?" Mu Xu led him to the window, pointing to the right and asking him.
"That's right!" Lu Feng'er was very sure as soon as she saw this outline, and the shock that this prehistoric ruin brought him made him unforgettable.
"Well, this Great Wall was built by the first generation of shrine maidens Lena about 6,000 years ago. Mu Xu added to explain to him.
"More than 6,000 years, isn't it more than 10,000 years ago?" Lu Feng'er wondered, "The highest technology of our time is certain!"
"More than 10,000 years ago?technology?" Mu Xu was also stunned.
Suddenly, something occurred to them.
"I see!" They looked at each other and almost said in unison, "I (you) are from the future!"
"I went to the prehistoric era?" Lu Feng'er was also stunned, "My fate is here, am I really an ancient power?" The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, but why did he think that he was an ancient power, and he didn't have any impression, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Haha! Witness from the future!" Mu Xu looked very happy. When she laughed happily, her eyes narrowed slightly, and the contours of her face were extremely soft, which made Lu Feng'er feel excited.
"Why are you so happy?" Lu Feng'er was confused.
"In recent years, the Netherworld Demon Clan has been stirring, and there are many signs that they have the intention of making a comeback, so I guess the life and death of this world should be in this era. If you're from the future thousands of years from now, it means that we should have survived this catastrophe!" She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she thought of this, after all, this pressure was now on her own now, "Thank you so much!"
"Ahh No," Lu Feng'er's face suddenly turned red, "Netherworld Demon Clan? What the hell is this?" She also talked about the Netherworld Demon Clan before, but Lu Feng'er didn't feel anything about it, after all, the word Demon only existed in novels or TV series in his time.
"Well, this is the great enemy of this world, which appeared six thousand years ago and almost destroyed this world. However, the first generation of shrine maidens, Lena, with the help of the spirit of nature, finally won the war with the remnants of human monsters, and later she presided over the construction of the Great Wall to defend against them, but they seem to have not moved for 6,000 years. Speaking of this, she suddenly thought of another question, "There were no netherworld demons in your era?"
"That's right!" Lu Feng'er nodded affirmatively, "I've never heard of it." ”
"Could it be that we defeated them?" Mu Xu dragged his cheeks, frowned slightly, and pondered, "Not necessarily!" because people now don't believe in the existence of the Netherworld Demon Race. ”
"Don't believe it? Why?" Lu Feng'er was a little upset.
"After all, it hasn't happened for 6,000 years, and people are so busy chasing power and status that they have almost forgotten about it. "Mu Xu is also a bit of a loss" To be honest, I didn't believe it when I was a child, but I didn't believe it until I saw the original scene with my own eyes. ”
But the more she talked about it, the lower her voice became, almost as thin as a mosquito. She unconsciously buried her head in her knees, and the scene reminded her of her master, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Ahh
"It's fine. She shook her head and said softly.
"Then why don't you go and tell them?" Lu Feng'er remembered what she said before, 'Since the master left, you are the first person to talk to me. I felt inexplicably distressed.
"My master used to take me on a tour of the south because of the lack of personnel stationed here. However, after telling them about this, what she received was ridicule, and some even scolded her for being a liar and having a sick brain, and that she still believed in such things at such an old age, and that she was not even as good as a three-year-old child, and so on. Since then, I have not dared to publicize it in front of people. As she spoke, she buried her head deeper, "So, it's enough for me to bear this alone, maybe I'm too cowardly." Sorry for whining at you. ”
"No! I believe you!" For some reason, Lu Feng'er believed her words with such certainty, definitely not just to comfort her.
She suddenly looked up at him in surprise.
"Yes, I believe it! Although I don't know what the demons of the netherworld are, my intuition tells me that what you say is true.........! I can't think of what I see beyond the Great Wall of the future, but I know, I'm sure!"
"There is an evil and powerful force that makes me tremble. My memories will also be forgotten, but my body has made me experience but I will never forget, that kind of power almost dragged my soul into it!" Lu Feng'er became more and more excited the more she spoke, she stood up uncontrollably and looked at her, "So, promise me, don't say that you will bear this kind of thing alone in the future, because you still have me!"
With that, he proudly pointed to his chest with his thumb.
She looked at him with tears in her eyes,
"Thank you!"
He looked at her and was inexplicably moved, 'I won't let you get hurt again!' she had his vow, even though she didn't know it.
