When the convoy reached the castle in sight, Xiao Chen, who had been pondering, jumped off his flatbed truck, ran to the side of Luo Ling's car, and jumped on it.

Luo Ling sat in the car with her legs crossed, her face was a little pale, she lost her previous menacing appearance, leaned lazily on the pile of goods, and said with a smile: "It's another level." We haven't caught up yet, and we should be out of danger. ”

Xiao Chen didn't answer, he looked at Luo Ling's smile, he always felt that there was a twist in his heart, he asked in a deep voice: "I hope you can give me an explanation, what is the white light whip just now, why didn't I know you had such an ability in advance?"

"Don't be so serious, it's just a little secret. This is one of the abilities of this ring, it can absorb energy and turn it into bands of light that cannot be blocked by matter, and act directly on the human nerves. Luo Ling seemed to be a little frightened by Xiao Chen's appearance, "Although it's not a powerful function, isn't it great that the light whip scared those guys away?"

"Not good. Xiao Chen paused for a moment, "Because you're hiding it from me." ”

"Gee, I just didn't have time to say it...... Don't make a fuss. ”

"What a fuss? Did you know that because you didn't tell me this secret, I couldn't judge the strength of the team, and I almost took the risk of using the 'Mental Detonation' scroll? Did you know that if my mental power was a little wrong, it could cause the people around me to become idiots or even get a headshot? Did you know that because you kept this 'little bit' of a big secret, it almost put us in a very dangerous situation all of a sudden?"

"Are you asking the teacher for sin?" Luo Ling's tone also cooled.

"I ...... , no" Xiao Chen shook his head, but still looked at each other very firmly, "I just think that there shouldn't be such a secret between us." ”

"Huh. Luo Ling sneered, "What makes you feel so good about yourself and feel that my world should be open to you without reservation?"

"We supported each other from the first day we arrived in this world, we experienced things that no one else experienced, we discovered a lot of secrets including this ring, we had a tacit understanding that no one else had......"

"Don't say it, some things are fate, but not responsibility. You didn't share all your experience in learning magic with Chen Hansheng, did you?, so why should I have no reservations?" Luo Ling's gaze swept over the sleeves of his robe, and the cuffs were pulled up a bit, covering up a few spots of blood.

"You...... , you know it's completely different. ”

"The difference is that you are self-inflicted. Please get out of the car, you are too heavy for me to carry in this car. Luo Ling turned her head to look at the side of the road and ignored Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen wanted to say something several times, but in the end he didn't speak, and Luo Ling in front of him made him feel very strange, with a sense of distance that could not be touched.

In the end, he could only jump out of the car and silently return to his car.

————————————————————————

The bonfire shines on the mottled stone walls, outlining many huge shadows that sway. The shadows writhed and jumped violently to the cheerful singing of the distant distance, as if to paint the smell of happiness in the air on the wall.

Xiao Chen leaned his back against a wheel, staring at the dancing shadows in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Footsteps sounded, and a shadow slowly became smaller and darker on the wall, leaning towards Xiao Chen.

"Xiao Chen, where are you hiding? The villagers here are so hospitable, and the bards are not covered, which is more energetic than the bonfire party I attended in Inner Mongolia. You should really come out and see the girls in the village dancing, or you'll lose a lot. ”

"I'm still a little tired, go eat it. Xiao Chen's voice is a little light, if you don't listen carefully, it is easy to be drowned in the singing, giving people a feeling of sickness.

Chen Hansheng searched for the sound and found Xiao Chen who was sitting in the shadow of the flatbed truck, and gently kicked him with his foot. Seeing that he didn't move, he bent down and sat down beside him, "Alas, you guy." ”

He held half a greasy roast chicken in his hand and handed it to Xiao Chen: "Eat some, my craftsmanship, I have eaten it well." ”

"No need. Xiao Chen didn't even look at the roast chicken, still looking at the stone wall in a daze.

Chen Hansheng couldn't help but say, and directly stuffed the chicken into Xiao Chen's hand, but he didn't expect Xiao Chen to be dead or alive, and between pushing and sending, the roast chicken fell to the ground.

"You ......" Xiao Chen glanced at Chen Hansheng, with some apology and some resentment in his eyes.

"I sacrificed half a chicken to let you look at me squarely. You're not so angry. Chen Hansheng was not unhappy, and said to Xiao Chen in a joking tone.

Xiao Chen looked at the roast chicken on the ground, didn't make a sound, picked it up, didn't shoot the mud, and just nibbled on it.

"I, I thought you were young, but you were very mature, different from those students, but I didn't expect you to be a child after all. Chen Hansheng said with some amusement, "Men, you should be magnificent." Otherwise, what's the difference with a?"

Seeing that Xiao Chen was still silent, Chen Hansheng rubbed his eyebrows, and said, "When will you and Luo Ling's 'ignore you' game be played? ”

"Just one another. ”

"I think she was going to explain it to you at first, but you didn't give her face at all. Of course, that person also has a temper. Anyway, she saved you and our team, right? She hasn't done anything to stop us from the beginning to now, right? Why make a fuss like this?"

"Lao Chen, have you ever been deceived by someone you trust?" Xiao Chen said, "If there is, then you should understand my feelings." If not, you don't have to persuade me. ”

"I've experienced a lot of things, do you think I was born to sell steamed buns, roasted cakes, meat and buns?" Chen Hansheng sighed and said, "When I was discharged from the army, I also partnered with others to do business. Alas...... If it weren't for my partner's trick on me, would I have been able to enter the bureau later? Tell you the truth, when I crossed over, I had only been out for more than a month, and I didn't know what to do tomorrow. ”

Xiao Chen was a little moved, and asked, "Then do you want to kill that person?" ”

"When I'm inside, every night before I go to bed, I think about how to kill him after I come out, don't say it, there are several reliable plans alone. But when it really came out, I felt that it was boring. ”

Chen Hansheng looked at Xiao Chen's eyes very seriously, and said, "You must be thinking, Lao Chen is useless to be cowardly and pretend to be a saint, or he simply made up a story to persuade me." But, that's what I thought. Although my culture is not high, I still like to ponder and summarize by myself.

When I was about to be released, it occurred to me one day that I had been in prison for three years, and my family had lost all my wealth and debts, what did such a day give me? Let me become an idiot who only has revenge in my head? Spend all my days looking for that decay? It's not worth it, my life is my own, I've lost three years of time, and I can't waste any more time. Others lie to me, others harm me, do I have to make myself unable to live a good life? No! The good life is mine, and the good mood is also mine, and I don't want to make myself worse and worse because of others. ”

"Lao Chen, you are an understanding person. Xiao Chen nodded. "I ...... I just suddenly discovered that trust is such a cheap thing. ”

"But you're a little confused, did Luo Ling lie to you? You said she didn't trust you, but did you trust her? Why don't you believe it, she has her own reasons for doing this? Why do you still question her in front of so many people?"

"I ...... I want to ......"

Chen Hansheng stood up, looked down at Xiao Chen, and said, "You should think about what you really think in your heart." ”

————————————————————————

When Xiao Chen returned to the campfire at the edge of the village, Gardo was playing a dance song with a bright rhythm, and the twenty or so girls of all sizes in the village danced in circles around the bonfire, dancing in circles to the lively melody.

"My lord, the people of Phoenix Village love us. We brought novelty goods, and we also brought bards, and today for them, it's like the feast of Divine Grace, and almost the young people of the whole village come out. Xiluo saw Xiao Chen coming over and greeted him with a wine glass.

Xiao Chen nodded, and continued to watch the girls dance, this dance posture is simple, the main thing is to cooperate with gestures, constantly rotating around the fire, both self-rotation and revolution. It may seem monotonous, but it is very pleasing to the eye.

However, when a girl turned in front of Xiao Chen, he was surprised to find that it was Luo Ling, who had changed into the local traditional 'conch skirt'. The conch skirt is embroidered with a conch shell spiral-like pattern, and once it turns up, it is like a whirlpool, dazzling.

And among all the dazzling colors, Luo Ling is the most dazzling one. Her long black hair swirled with her skirt, as if she wanted to reel the viewer's gaze. Her delicate and straight figure is like a swan in a flock of ducks, her swaying arms are like willows in the summer breeze, she sweats slightly, and this can also add color to her, and a little bead of sweat on her forehead is like a crystal gem in the light of the fire.

She is the only protagonist here. The boys of the village all looked at her intently and cheered for her loudly. Li Tianrui and Chen Hansheng also whistled and applauded to the beat.

She is beautiful and wild, radiating light and heat, like the sun. Xiao Chen thought so, and suddenly realized that he didn't know her so well, and he didn't even know that her dancing could shine on the audience.

The Luo Ling he knew and met was calm, wise, and strong, but this was only one of many aspects of her personality?

The time he spent with Luo Ling was actually very short, but he felt that the two seemed to have known each other for a long time, and there has always been a very deep and close tacit understanding between the two of them. This tacit understanding made him feel that she was the most trustworthy person in this world.

Thinking about it carefully, for Luo Ling, he is not so much trusting as dependence. That kind of gentleness and tenacity of support gives him the courage to do anything.

Xiao Chen felt that he was like a child abandoned in the dark by his mother today, falling into despair and panic. However, obviously, she was not so dependent on him, and when Xiao Chen was huddled in the corner, she was actually dancing, dancing so vividly and so indifferently.

At the end of the song, the girls dispersed to their friends around them like birds returning to their nests, and Luo Ling was surrounded by several girls and walked off the stage.

Xiao Chen involuntarily rushed forward and stopped in front of her: "It's me who is impulsive, just act as if nothing happened." ”

Luo Ling stared at him for a few seconds, withdrew the ring from the middle finger, put it in his hand, and said in the most bland tone: "Has anything happened?" ”
