Chapter 381: The Prelude to the War
readx;
The silver-haired female warrior holds a roll of female daughters in her hand armor. Zheng Eun asked how to deal with the depressed atmosphere in the city, so of course he didn't react, and looked at Bai Shuo, who was holding a bowl and grabbing chopsticks behind the table, with the same dull expression.

After a long silence, Bai Shuo coughed twice in a low voice. With a wave of his hand, he closed the open door behind Nuwa, and said with a sincere expression and a gentle tone:
"Would you like to eat together?.
Decisively and quickly, Bai Shuo decided to drag Nuwa into the water together, or endure Nuwa's righteous words......
After a moment of silence, the female grandmother nodded: "Okay." ”
This time, it was Bai Shuo who was surprised, Nuwa was just a little more serious in her usual life, and she was not a pedantic character who was stereotyped to the extreme.
Besides, it's just a small stove, and there's nothing serious.
So, sometimes, people who know how to share will always be much luckier.
Just like now, the two of them sat in Bai Shuo's room, and ate the whole delicious dinner quickly and efficiently at the table.
"It tastes good, and the way to preserve this food is really novel."
After the meal, Nujuan said with an empty box in her hand.
"The food is treated at high temperatures and then sealed in clean containers. As long as the temperature is suitable, it can be stored for a long time. ”
Bai Shuo picked up the kettle on the stove, poured it into two cups, and finally put the hot tea in front of the female grandmother: "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Nothing, just come and have a look." The grandmother picked up the teacup and looked at the tea leaves floating in the water: "But it looks like you're doing well now." ”
"It's over." Bai Shuo smiled a little embarrassedly, picked up the bamboo slip beside her and looked at the handwriting on it.
The female grandmother only glanced at it lightly, and she didn't care about Bai Shuo's behavior of investigating secrets.
After reading it. Bai Shuo said helplessly: "Is there not enough food in the city?" ”
"There are so many mouths in the city, how much food has to be consumed every day, and after so many days, I finally have to face the dilemma of lack of food." The grandmother sighed: "In fact, the support has been the result of Zhou Yu's hard work until now. ”
Bai Shuo thought for a moment and then shook his head: "It's a pity, if you wait for another half a month, the general trend of the crusading army has been achieved. You will be able to defeat the Demon King Army head-on. ”
For the first time, the female grandmother showed an uneasy expression and looked down at the teacup in her hand: "After the food is cut off, the destruction of Furuno City is also close at hand. ”
These days, she has never let the people in the city know this, and the huge pressure has always been borne alone, and now that there is one more Bai Shuo in the know, her mood is finally a little lighter.
Even she didn't notice that she was becoming more and more dependent on Bai Shuo.
Bai Shuo smiled bitterly and shook his head, for this matter, the female nude finally saw it a little shallower.
She had never really understood what terrible creatures humans were.
When food is cut off, people who are extremely hungry become living beasts, creatures that can eat even the corpses of their own kind, just to survive.
Even...... Kill the living, and eat the child.
Once the army goes crazy, it can't stop anymore.
But these things Bai Shuo is not ready for. Nor will it be made to happen.
He looked at Nujuan with a calm look in his eyes: "Are you free tomorrow?" ”
The grandmother raised her head suspiciously, looking into his eyes, not knowing why.
"If you have time, I'm afraid you'll have to accompany me on a trip to the battlefield." Bai Shuo smiled and picked up the teacup: "Come with me to take off Sima Yi's head." “,
"Okay." She laughed, "I can still help with this kind of thing." ”
"It's been hard these days." Bai Shuo drank tea and said gratefully: "If you hadn't come with me, I'm afraid the city would have been in chaos." ”
"It's nothing, it's a pretty novel experience for me." Nuwa smiled: "For the first time, I feel that there are many things that can help others besides fighting. ”
"Compared with the human world, the fairy world may be much more peaceful." Bai Shuo said curiously, "Can you tell me about it?" The appearance of the fairy world. ”.
"The fairy world." Nujuan's eyes recalled with nostalgia, and finally said in disappointment: "It's a beautiful place." ”
"When I came here this time, I really didn't expect so many things to happen." Nujuan held the teacup, silver hair floated down her sideburns, swept away the seriousness and strength of the past, and showed the gentleness of being a woman for the first time.
"I grew up with Fu Xi and my younger brother, and Fu Xi always took care of us like an older brother. Now without him, I understand the pressure Fu Xi is under. Nujuan said in frustration: "Now that I think about it. If it weren't for him, we would definitely be tripping over a lot of setbacks, right? ”
The grandmother's nostalgic dish thought: "There are a lot of friends and attachments there, and everyone loves Kaguyahime, who likes to fiddle with strange tools. And Lord Suzhan Mingzun. He was supposed to come with us this time......"
"And then?" Bai Shuo asked.
"He and we were separated in the warped temporal storm, we didn't
Thinking of relying on the Demon Refining Pot. Far Lu Zhi can be strong enough to cry. ”
Nuwa's expression was sad, and she laughed a little: "Until now, only me and my younger brother are left." ”
"And me." He whispered, "I'll help you defeat Yuanlu Zhi, believe me, one day in the near future, you'll be able to return to your hometown." ”
The female grandmother raised her head and asked solemnly and expectantly, "Are you willing to go to the fairy world?" ”
Bai Shuo smiled and shook his head: "No, we will return to the place that belongs to us, a far, far away place." ”
A hint of loss flashed in the woman's eyes, and she lowered her head and continued to drink tea.
In the middle of the conversation between the two, the night gradually deepened, and I don't know when, the tired female grandmother fell asleep on Bai Shuo's wide chair.
It seems that Nujuan really trusts herself, and she falls asleep so easily in someone else's room, can it only be said that Nujuan is too simple?
The plain serious and dignified Nujuan showed an unexpectedly simple appearance in her deep sleep, her hair was slightly messy, like a little girl.
Bai Shuo shook his head helplessly and smiled, took out a blanket from the space, and covered her body.
Leaning back in his chair, Bai Shuo added charcoal to the burning fire, and continued to look at the book of magic that he had borrowed when he left the cross by the light on the table.
And just at the outermost part of Furuno Castle, a monkey who did not want to stay in a tent lay on a simple roof, holding a large pile of fruit in his arms.
In the moonlight, he nibbled on fruit while looking at Furuno Castle in the night.
Singing indistinctly, his tail wagged with the song, and finally said to himself in confusion: "I always feel... There's a familiar smell. ”
She felt like she had had a long dream, but she couldn't remember it clearly when she woke up.
The female grandmother opened her eyes a little hazy, stretched out her hand from under the blanket, rubbed her eyes, and then saw Bai Shuo who was asleep on the chair opposite.
She looked down at the blanket she was wearing, and after a pause, she smiled in a way she hadn't even noticed.
A little sleepy, she patted her somewhat cold cheeks, she quietly stood up from the chair, carefully folded the blanket that Bai Shuo had draped over herself, and placed it on the chair.
After she noticed the sleeping Bai Shuo. Thinking about something with some hesitation, he picked up the blanket from the chair again after a moment, and then carefully walked to the sleeping Bai Shuo.
Gently and carefully, she put the blanket back on Bai Shuo's body.
When it was finished, the grandmother took a step back. Proudly admiring his work: It seems that he is still very talented in taking care of people, Fu Xi and his younger brother always say that they are women who can't even take care of themselves except for fighting. It's just that they're too uninformed, well, it must be like that.
Looking at the blanket on Bai Shuo's body, Nuwa suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment that she had never felt before.
Silently, Bai Shuo opened his eyes and saw the smug smile on Nujuan's face that had not yet dissipated.
As a blind man, Bai Shuo's perception is definitely beyond the level of the same level of reincarnation, and it is almost usable now. The autumn wind has not moved the cicada, and the words are summarized.
People who are hostile to themselves can be detected from thousands of meters away, so everything in the room is ringing. From the time Nujuan woke up, he was aware of it.
Feel yourself. Wake up. Before the atmosphere turned awkward, Bai Shuo said in a rather grateful voice: "It's just right, I'm a little cold." ”
"No, you're welcome......" The grandmother waved her hand, trying to maintain the seriousness of her expression: "Thank you for taking care of me last night." ”
Looking at Nujuan's rare helpless touch, Bai Shuo did not make her laugh more embarrassed, but raised her watch to look at the time.
"It's time for breakfast, but unfortunately I can't sleep anymore."
He got up from his chair: "The stove in the house was accidentally extinguished, otherwise I can open a small stove in the morning and have another meal"
picked up the bamboo slips that Nuwa brought yesterday from the table: "Don't forget this, do you want to have breakfast together?" ”
The grandmother took the bamboo slip and was about to nod her head to say something, but she heard a high-pitched alarm bell suddenly coming from the city.
The Demon King's Army has begun to attack the city again.
"What a nuisance." Bai Shuo scratched his hair a little irritably: "I'm going to the castle tower first, and the defense of the city will be entrusted to you." ”
"Okay." Nujuan nodded, naturally followed him, and walked out of the door.
I don't know when she got used to the position.
In the flying smoke and dust, arrays holding iron shields and spears formed an array from the large camp in the extreme distance, and slowly walked out.
Against the backdrop of the barren land and gloomy sky, the black snakes formed an array like a tidal wave, and once again stepped onto the battlefield with the will to kill.
The big bell at the head of the ancient city was ringed violently, and the soldiers on the head of the city continued to appear, and the tense atmosphere spread.
