Chapter 37: A Warm Heart
Jin Shi and Xiu'er continued to travel east, passing through the events of Yandong City, Xiu'er greatly changed her view of Jin Shi, and always jumped around Jin Shi with infinite energy.
To Jin Shi's surprise, her injuries seemed to have really healed, and it was not like the first few days, when she had been sleeping non-stop.
And Xiu'er's speed is really fast, beyond Jin Shi's understanding of the level 12 wind system. There is only one wind archmage in the team, and of all the attributes, he knows the wind system the most.
Jin Shi had a whim and said, "Xiu'er, let's compete to see who can run faster!"
Xiu'er was overjoyed and said happily: "Okay, okay! I can let you." ”
A playful smile appeared at the corner of Jin Shi's mouth, and said, "You can not let me." ”
Jin Shi is a level 13 warrior, although the speed is not as good as Xiu'er, but the physical strength is good!
Jin Shi took the lead and kept a steady pace and ran with ease. After a few breaths, Xiu'er followed and said, "Stone, you're too slow." ”
Xiu'er suddenly accelerated after speaking, and threw the stone hard behind her.
Jin Shi was not in a hurry at all, shook his shoulders and twisted his neck, and rushed forward at a slight speed.
Maybe it was too boring in front, Xiu'er deliberately slowed down, and shouted at the level of Jin Shi from time to time: "Stone, hurry up, run faster." ”
Jin Shi smiled at the corner of his mouth, but he didn't reply to her, and kept his speed running.
After running for a long, long time, Jin Shi was sweating profusely and his physical strength was exhausted, so he could continue to maintain his speed by focusing on his feet. And Xiu'er's speed is getting slower and slower, and she no longer has the momentum just now.
Jin Shi felt that it was almost over, and chased after him little by little, and said with a smile: "Run faster." ”
Xiu'er cocked her mouth at Jin Shi, and after a cold snort, her figure quickly rushed ten meters in front. Jin Shi was shocked because he only saw a shadow, and Xiu'er was already in front.
Jin Shi once again mobilized his anger to catch up with Xiu'er, and Xiu'er once again distanced himself from him. Xiu'er was very smart, and now she has figured out Jin Shi's careful thoughts, he used the remnants of the elemental power to keep running, and every time Jin Shi caught up, she suddenly ran ten meters out and let Jin Shi chase after her.
After many times Jin Shigang's qi was empty, his legs and stomach were a little weak, and he was shocked, and he was brought into her rhythm by Xiu'er.
Jin Shi let out a long roar, and rushed with his last strength and strength, and the speed was amazingly fast, no slower than Xiu'er's speed.
At this time, Xiu'er was also out of breath, only to see the blue light flashing on the soles of her feet, and the person rushed out ten meters away.
Jin Shi was tired into a dog, clubbed his knees with both hands, and said, "No, no, I admit defeat." ”
Xiu'er's face was ruddy and she was smiling in front of her, and Jin Shi shook her head, thinking that she was still too simple.
After a short break, Jin Shi asked, "Xiu'er, are you really only level 12?"
Xiu'er was puzzled and replied, "Yes, is there any problem?"
Jin Shi said, "I have met so many wind mages on the battlefield, but none of them are better than you. And when you suddenly speed up, I haven't seen anyone use it. ”
Xiu'er thought for a while and said, "It doesn't seem to be difficult!"
Sometimes Jin Shi really envies these people who have elemental power, why doesn't Gang Qi have this ability? If he has this ability, his combat power will soar!
At the end of Jinshi's meditation at night, looking at Xiu'er who was asleep, he would always think of the hand when she suddenly jumped out during the day, and thought about where he seemed to have seen it.
Thinking back and forth, Jin Shi was used to touching out the badge, and he turned and turned! Suddenly he thought that the captain was in the battle of Shimang Town!
Jin Shi moved his body, imitating Tang and Xiu'er to pose as a charge, his body squatted slightly, and his qi was mobilized to his feet. Not enough, Jin Shi felt that it was not enough, and the qi was gathering on his feet a little bit, and coupled with his tight muscles, he felt a little out of control.
When Jin Shi felt that he could no longer condense his qi into his legs, he leaned forward, and with a fierce force on his feet, a faint golden light was born from the soles of his feet, and in a flash, his body jumped out uncontrollably.
"Boom. With a loud bang, Jin Shi only felt that the sky was spinning, his body was paralyzed, and the bark of the tree was crushed by his head, but fortunately the tree was quite big, otherwise there was a risk of being broken.
"So that's what happened!" Jin Shi rolled his eyes, tilted his head and passed out.
Xiu'er was awakened by the sound of Jin Shi hitting the tree, and she saw Jin Shi lying on the ground ten meters away in a daze, and countless fallen leaves were falling on him. She ran over and saw that Jin Shi was unresponsive, and said worriedly: "Stone, stone, stone, what's wrong with you?"
But no matter what she called, Jin Shi just didn't wake up, and he was so anxious that he started crying.
Early in the morning, Jin Shi woke up and found that he had a great headache, rubbed his head and remembered the stupid thing he did last night, and smiled bitterly. When he wanted to get up, he suddenly felt warm on his stomach, and when he buried his head, Xiu'er was lying on his stomach and falling asleep.
Jin Shi woke Xiu'er up and said, "Why are you sleeping on my stomach?"
Xiu'er said with a look of grievance: "I originally slept on your chest, but the sound of my heartbeat made me unable to sleep, and I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I lay on your stomach and fell asleep, not only soft, but also knew if you were okay." ”
Jin Shi looked confused, what is this! I think my heart is beating noisily, can't you change sides? The stomach is soft meat, and it is uncomfortable to press it for a long time, but fortunately, Xiu'er is light. No, she can't sleep on my stomach! Thinking about the stupid thing she did last night, it turned out that she was worried about me? Thinking of this golden stone's heart instantly warmed.
After a few years of hard work, Jin Shi's physique became stronger, and he continued to hurry after confirming that he was okay. He was silent, and he became the appearance of coming down from the battle of Shimang Town, Xiu'er sometimes teased him, but he was not in the mood, so he laughed at it.
Luoyang Pass is the junction of Dewagang and Pingbarren Land and Fucangzhou, it is the most important military fortress of the Chu and Jin Empires, and it is the last line of defense of the military bases of the two empires in the west and north.
Merchants from the north and south will pass through here, making it lively, and no matter what force you are here, no matter how strong you are, you have to be here, unless you are really strong enough to fight against an army.
So it's a completely safe place, and the slightest violation of the law will be expelled for obstructing the stability of the fortress.
On the commercial street of Luoyangguan, Jin Shi and Xiu'er ordered a large table of dishes, which made passers-by keep looking sideways. Jin Shi has a bad appetite today, and he can't eat it anymore after a few bites. On the contrary, Xiu'er has an excellent appetite and eats a lot without hurry.
Xiu'er asked, "Why don't you eat it?"
Jin Shi only shook his head and said, "You eat more." ”
Xiu'er didn't think so, and ate by herself, anyway, she didn't need to pay for it herself.
Entering and exiting Luoyang Pass is extremely slow, and whether you are an individual or a soldier, you must search your body one by one to enter and exit. Jin Shi and Xiu'er waited in line for a long time in the long queue before they got out of the level.
Jin Shi finally couldn't help it, pulled Xiu'er aside and said patiently: "You are still young, you must be careful on the road, don't take the side road when you take the official road, don't follow the caravan, it is safest to follow the army, you must plan to eat the dry food you bring, and you must make up enough food every time you go to a place." ”
Xiu'er shook off the golden stone with a look of annoyance, and said, "Why are you mother-in-law?" and said some strange things. Xiu'er turned her face away, and the corners of her mouth showed a hint of cunning.
Jin Shi leaned over and said solemnly: "You just remember to go south, Lilan City is about half a month away from here, one person must be careful." ”
Xiu'er looked aggrieved, tears were wrapped in her eyes, and she wanted to cry without crying, and said, "I understand, Shishi, you said so many strange things, it turned out that you wanted to leave me?"
Jin Shi waved his hand in a panic, you have no way to take such a show, and stammered: "No, no, it's not what you think..."
"That's what I thought, you don't want to take me on my way. ”
"I want to take you on the road too, but we're going in different directions!"
"What's the difference?" Xiu'er asked Jinshi with wide eyes and confusion.
"I'll go north, you go south......" Wait a while, Jin Shi said and couldn't go on, Luoyang Pass is the junction of three places, three city gates, each city gate in one direction, now out of the northeast city gate, continue to go northeast is the land of the wasteland. If you want to go to the city, you have to re-enter the city and go out through the southeast gate. At this time, Jin Shi's head was completely out of order, and he said, "Why are you ......?"
The corners of Xiu'er's mouth curled, and she sobbed: "You said that I can trust you, but you don't take me away now, what if I am captured by those people again?" I'm so afraid, the stone is a liar, woo woo..... I'm so good!"
As he spoke, Xiu'er began to wipe her tears, and Jin Shi looked confused, at this time his head was stuck, and he couldn't think. He asked tentatively, "You're going to Sanger City too?"
Xiu'er snorted coldly and continued to cry.
At this time, Jin Shi was excited in his heart, and said: "Don't cry, don't cry, I thought you were going to Saliva City..."
Xiu'er snorted coldly and continued to cry.
Jin Shi hurriedly explained: "Don't cry! I'll take you away." ”
Xiu'er snorted coldly and continued to cry.
Jin Shi didn't have anything to do, scratched his head and said, "Why don't I carry you?" After speaking, he took the initiative to squat and bend over.
As soon as the action was done, Xiu'er pounced, snorted coldly next to Jin Shi's ear, buried it in her shoulder and pretended to sleep, with a smug smile on the corner of her mouth.
Jin Shi looked helpless, and walked slowly with Xiu'er on his back, and the haze in his heart had disappeared. In the afterglow of the setting sun, there is always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
The cold is not terrible, but who wants to be nostalgic for the cold after experiencing the warmth? Jin Shi thought that the rest of his life was just that, and worked hard with Tang's will to become stronger, until the moment he fell. Unexpectedly, God let him meet Xiu'er, and his frozen heart was softened into a crack, greedily absorbing warmth.
