Night Mountain, under the stars.

In the middle of nowhere.

"Shh~shh~" A slender figure sneaked up in front of a tent and made a small noise at a huge figure.

In the tent, the huge figure was already very alert, and when he heard a sound, he opened his eyes suddenly, and changed from lying on his back to lying on his stomach, but he saw that the tent had been opened a small opening, and a figure was looking at him with a smile outside the tent.

Fischer knew who she was, this was the same batch of vigil apprentices as him, and it could be considered... Well, his second senior sister - Yin Ni.

The two also have a senior brother, but the senior brother never communicates with the two, so he is a mute...... No, Senior Brother is not mute, because Fei Xue had heard Senior Brother and Chief Niwei have a brief exchange, which has to make Fei Xue speculate that Senior Brother may be an autistic person.

"Fei Xue, let's go see the stars." Outside the tent, Yin Ni said with a grin.

Fei Xue didn't like this nickname, his surname was Fei, and he pronounced three times. But this lively senior sister has always called him "Fat Xue".

Fei Xue is not fat, but for others, he is too big.

He is 206cm tall and weighs more than 300 pounds.

When a giant man more than two meters tall weighs more than 300 pounds, but still does not make people feel fat, you can imagine his muscles and steel bones.

"Whoa." Yin Ni stretched out her right hand and leaned in, holding a piece of candy with a pale blue glow between her index finger and thumb.

Obviously, this is not a real candy, but a candy made from star power.

Fei Xue got up at this time, muttered in his mouth, grabbed the sugar in one hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and climbed out of the tent.

The alternate dimensional space of Eye Mountain is not cold, but it is dark all year round.

The night breeze blew Yin Ni's long shawl hair, she wrapped her clothes, and looked up at the bright starry sky, at the same time, a huge figure crawled out of the tent.

Even if Yin Ni is more than eight meters tall, she is like a child by his side.

The difference in height is not the main thing, the difference in body size is the most terrible.

Fei Xue crawled out and whispered, "We will be scolded by Master." ”

Yin Ni spread out her palm, and put together a light blue candy in her palm, handed it to Fei Xue, and said, "Master scolded you?" ”

Fei Xue directly lowered his head, sucked the candy from the palm of his hand, and said with a smirk: "That's not true, I've never heard Master swear words, but that sharp look swept over, and half my life was gone." ”

Yin Ni wanted to express her disdain for Fei Xue, but she seemed to think of something, and she couldn't help but shudder, dropped a faint "stupid big man", and walked forward.

Fei Xue scratched his short hair and strode to follow, he knew that the destination of this trip was the cliff not far ahead.

There, she could see not only the starry sky, but also the endless wilderness.

The night breeze ruffled Yin Ni's hair, and she reached out and clipped the bangs scattered on her forehead behind her ears, and as she walked forward, her eyes looking up at the starry sky also fell into the wilderness below.

In the wilderness below, to be exact, on the body of a pitch-black figure.

The dark figure stood quietly beside a huge stone, carrying a huge blade in his hand, moving back and forth.

The range of movement of the figure is not large, the amplitude of each step is very small, the range of movement of the body is even smaller, and the two-meter-long big knife in his hand is like a close-fitting dagger, attacking and defending the boulder in front of him from all angles and various postures.

Although the huge stone was lifeless, judging from the movements of the figure, the stone seemed to be a martial artist who was training with him.

Fei Xue stood on the high cliff, looking at the darkness below, and couldn't help but ask stupidly, "You see him again?" ”

Although the stars in the sky were bright, but looking into the distance like this, Fei Xue could not see anything, only darkness.

"Hmm." Yin Ni let out a soft "um", her eyes locked on the silent figure in the distance, and suddenly asked, "It's been 35 days, have you heard Xiao Jiu speak?" ”

Fei Xue said uncertainly, "It seems that I heard him say a short word to Master in the tent, but I'm not sure if it was my hallucination. ”

"You're stupid, really, why wasn't I at the tent in the first place." Yin Ni said dissatisfiedly.

Fei Xue scratched his head stupidly and said, "Is it because he doesn't speak, so he is the official night watchman?" ”

Yes, although the three of them are brothers and sisters, Fei Xue and Yin Ni are only night watch apprentices, and their senior brother is a regular night watchman with a code name.

To be exact, a regular lightseeker, even more special than the night watchman.

Senior brother's code name is Nine-Tails, and the master has always called him by his code name during the mission.

And Master's code name is Ni-tail, what does this mean?

This represents a place for a senior brother in the light-chasing group and tail feather team!

Yin Ni specially asked Erwei about the Nine-Tails, and from the mouth of the Erwei Master, although the senior brother is already the Nine-Tails, he is still an apprentice, and his identity is the same as Fei Xue and Yin Ni.

Yin Ni has been speculating about who this guy who is both an apprentice and a regular light chaser is, but unfortunately, he never speaks, always wearing a night watch uniform, and the pitch-black mask on his face has never been taken off.

Why is he called "Little Jiu"?

Because although the mask was never taken off, it was broken once in battle.

To be exact, he smashed the lower half of his mask, revealing the lower half of his face.

When Yin Ni saw the green lower half of her face, she knew that this mysterious person was just a child, maybe even a high school student.

The teaching of the two tails does not have the rules of traditional teachers, and during the task, people call each other by their code names.

Yin Ni is the first learner, Fei Xue is the second, and that person is the Nine-Tails.

Since then, Yin Ni has changed her name to Nine-Tails: Xiao Jiu.

The two tails don't care, and the nine tails never speak.

It all went on naturally.

Yin Ni was a senior at Northwest Xingwu University, and Fei Xue was one year younger than her, and the two of them were currently in a state of suspension, and were "escorted" by the Northwest Night Watch Army to the hands of the second tail for training.

If nothing else, when they are approved by the two tails, they will become incognito night watchmen, and whether they can become a special light chaser depends on their creation.

Therefore, the theory of diplomas in the secular world will not have too much connection with the two star warriors who aspire to be night watchmen.

Of course, if they don't have the strength and the will to go back to school, then they can continue their education, that's another story.

"The strength of the other-dimensional creatures here is not strong, how long do you think we have to stay here?" Yin Ni sat down slowly, her arms clasped around her knees, but her eyes were fixed on the figure in the wilderness below.

Fei Xue thought for a while, and said, "Master said that when we really calm down, no longer yearn for the chaotic world, and get used to the darkness and loneliness, we will enter the next stage. ”

Yin Ni clasped her arms around her knees and muttered, "Then I may never be qualified, I even want you to accompany me when I come out to see the stars." ”

Fei Xue suddenly smiled, he slowly sat next to Yin Ni, looked at the dark wilderness, and said, "Then I will accompany you." ”

Yin Ni pursed her lips and said, "When I called you just now, you didn't have this attitude. ”

Fei Xue scratched his head in embarrassment: "Get up, get up, understand." ”

The world does not empathize with this,

The knife doesn't chop in your hand, and you don't feel the same pain.

Just like the two of them now.

In Yin Ni's eyes, this is a vast wilderness, and there is a lonely figure in the distance. tirelessly repeating one simple and boring action after another.

In Fei Xue's eyes, it was pitch black below, except for the galaxy above his head, there were only people beside him.

He doesn't know who is more beautiful between Xinghe and her,

He just knew that on the day of the vigil, the candy was sweet.

Yin Ni's eyes gradually blurred, and she said softly, "Do you really want to be like him?" Is it a good night watchman to become a lonely mute? ”

Fei Xue looked at the darkness and said, "Maybe." ”

Yin Ni kept shaking her head and said, "I hate him, I don't want to be like him." ”

Fei Xue was silent for a long time, and then said, "Do you have anyone to worry about?" ”

Yin Ni shook her head: "No." This may have been a big part of why I was selected as an apprentice to the vigil. What about you? ”

Fei Xue heard this rhetorical question, looked at Yin Ni's lonely side face beside him, opened his mouth, and finally said, "I don't have either." ”

Fei Xue turned his head again to look at the void below: "Since there is none... Then it doesn't matter. ”

Yin Ni's eyes gradually reddened: "But I miss the path in front of my house, the cries of the corner shop, the wild cats wandering at the door, and the ... Want to ......"

The collapse seems to be sudden, but it is freezing three feet, not a day's cold.

35 days, in this dark world, Yin Ni clearly remembered the time, and even remembered every hour.

Fei Xue was silent for a long time, and asked softly, "Do you want to quit?" ”

Her voice became more and more choked, her hands covered her face, and she kept shaking her head: "No, no... I just don't want to be like him. ”

Fei Xue's face was struggling, and his heart was obviously even more struggling, he hesitated for a long time, looking at the girl who was sobbing in a low voice, and Fei Xue's chest was full of stars.

A few seconds later, a fat, orange-cat-like creature appeared in his hand, still asleep as if it had not been called to consciousness.

Fei Xue put the orange cat in Yin Ni's arms and said, "Don't tell Master. ”

Yin Ni was holding the orange cat in her arms, but her mood was not better, and she was still sobbing quietly.

I don't know when, a huge figure quietly stood behind him, and a hoarse voice came into the ears of the two: "Go back to the tent and rest, immediately." ”

Fei Xue hurriedly stood up, and his voice stumbled: "Division... Master. ”

Yin Ni also stood up, but she kept her head down, and tears continued to drip on the orange cat in her arms, and finally woke it up from sleep.

The orange cat-like creature leaned forward and licked the tears from her face.

And the second tail just looked at the figures of the two of them, looking at the figures under the cliff from afar.

At some point, he had put the giant blade behind him and stared silently at the boulder in front of him.

At the same time, in the stadium of Xingwu, the imperial capital, under the white street lamp, a figure sprinting with all his strength and sweating continued to slow down, slowly stopped, his knees weakened, and he half-knelt on the plastic runway.

He was soaking wet, as if he had been fished out of the water, his eyes closed, and his mind was the same.

In the inner star chart, a simple message came.

"The Xia family's knife technique is upgraded! Gold Quality Lv.3! ”

"Tired... Tired? Beside him, a person who was also sprinting slowed down and stopped at Jiang Xiao's side, his hands on his knees, and he was wearing a big gulp.

It can make a star warrior with extremely strong physical fitness sweat like rain and his breath disordered, which is enough to see the intensity of their training.

"If you want to use the blessing, just, use it, don't, it's dead." Gu Shi'an's chest rose and fell violently, and under the street lamp, he stumbled and stretched out one hand.

On the football field, Qin Wangchuan, who was juggling the ball, suddenly stepped on the ball and shouted angrily: "Jiang Xiaopi! Limited? You're not dead yet! You're not dead yet! Stand up for me if you're not dead! ”

Jiang Xiao grabbed the broad palm, stood up with difficulty, and took another step without saying a word.

"Gu Shi'an! You're not tired, are you? Within three minutes, if you don't overtake him by one lap, you will get out of the 3rd team for me! Qin Wangchuan's roars came one after another, "Hurry up!" Hurry up! Jiang Xiaopi! Your goal is to die on this runway! ”

Under the stars, in the endless wilderness.

The lonely figure, looking at the boulder in front of him, silently, stabbed again.

......
