23. Is there a twist this time?

The battle decided the outcome almost instantly, with the dying fish-men struggling at the feet of the skeleton warriors, dying, festering. Moon couldn't figure out the reason for this sudden state of affairs. Xiaobai groaned softly and woke up from his coma.

"Xiaobai, you're awake. Moon temporarily put aside his distractions and looked down at Xiaobai in his arms.

Xiao Bai's two shrugged ears gradually stood up, and he looked around in a little confusion. At this moment, the blue figure, which had not moved since summoning the skeleton warrior, slowly turned around and walked, his boots on the ice, heavy and determined. The blurred face under the helmet seemed to have endless pain, and there was nowhere to speak.

"Hmmβ€”" His voice was ethereal and solemn, like a whisper from the abyss. One by one, the skeleton warriors who were gnawing at the fishmen stopped moving, turned around, and paced to his rhythm.

The passage burst with a loud bang, and a figure wrapped in fiery red fighting qi fell from the sky, like a fiery phoenix soaring from the sky.

Luo Xia's eyes were red, the corners of her mouth trembled slightly, she didn't hesitate at all, and she got up, and went straight to the warrior, the red flames burst out above her fists, and the people passed by like a horse, and the skeletons didn't even look back along the way, still persistently following the warrior towards Moon, but in the persistence, they were burned to ashes by the fire of the prairie fire.

The warrior didn't look back, the ice wall rose up behind him, the confrontation between ice and fire was short and intense, and Luo Xia, who had not made a fist, jumped over the warrior and guarded in front of Moon.

"Young Master. In Luo Xia's voice, the peace of the past was long gone, and only the embers were blazing. "I'll come, take you home. ”

"Thatβ€”" Moon wanted to speak, but Luo Xia flew up again, which made him swallow his words back into his stomach.

The fists wrapped in flames turned into countless fist shadows, like poisonous snakes foraging for food, enveloping the warriors in them. The warrior's advance came to a halt under Luo Xia's onslaught, and the ice sword weaved a defensive net to keep the viper out.

For a moment, the space was wrapped in ice, illuminated by fire, and collapsed in the intermingling of ice and fire. Countless broken ice burst up, and countless broken ice fell, making Moon and the others scramble.

The ice under Luo Xia's feet melted, and the red flames protruded, turning from red to purple, and kicked the warrior's chest with the sound of breaking the sky, although he didn't know who left the bones he held in front of his chest with one hand, since he could let the other party fight with him with only one hand, it must be an important thing.

Although the warrior has been in the middle of the battle, his momentum is cold and calm, until Luo Xia's kick seems to stimulate his reverse scales, his eyes turn blue to white, and the ice sword in his hand is divided into two, crossing his chest, blocking Luo Xia's kick. And holding the other sword was his tail.

"Uh-huh-hmm Like a beast that has been stabbed in the wound, the warrior launched a frantic counterattack, and the shadow of the ice flame sword flew all over the sky for a while.

Luo Xia, whose headband was destroyed by the ice sword, had her long hair scattered, attacking against attack, and her figure was like a fire phoenix dancing in the ice, dazzling and agile.

"Orcs?" Moon was a little unsure, the way the warrior appeared and fought was too much for him to think of with the orcs.

"Hmm... Wolves. Under the strong wind pressure, Xiaobai could only squint his eyes and give the answer.

"Oh! no wonder it roars so distinctively. Do you wolves still have this type of warrior?"

"I haven't heard of it, and I haven't seen it. Xiaobai shook his head, "I feel like he didn't seem to have any ill intentions at first." ”

Moon wiped his nose, how to say it, he thought so at first, but Luo Xia... Straight on.

The battle in the field was still ongoing, ice and fire were incompatible since ancient times, and the entire space was crumbling under the collision of scattered fighting energy and ice. With Emma's help, Turing smashes the ice blocks that fall from time to time to protect Moon and Xiaobai.

Luo Xia found an opportunity to clamp the two swords with both fists, and the legs alternately attacked, and the roaring flames kicked the warrior's legs, shoulders, waist, and head. Then taking advantage of the opponent's contraction defense, the purple flame of his left arm soared into the sky, and the fire of his right fist flashed, and he went straight to the door.

The warrior's feet made a long trajectory on the ice and stepped back. However, Luo Xia's left arm, which was about to withstand the attack, did not feel the expected sword blow. Looking at the other party carefully, the warrior covered his face with one hand, and the ice sword that was originally slashed at Luo Xia turned straight towards Moon.

Luo Xia turned around suddenly, only to find that Turing was still swinging the hammer, Emma was casting a protective spell on him, and Moon was standing up to protect Xiaobai, and a diamond-shaped ice was floating above Moon's head. Clearly, the ice was stopped by the warrior's sword.

Luo Xia frowned, stopped the offensive for a while, and then kept facing the warriors, retreating towards Moon step by step.

"I just wanted to say, that, the other party doesn't seem to have malicious intent. Moon hugged Xiaobai away with palpitations, and didn't forget to look back at the sharp ice.

"Well, I was abrupt. Hearing Moon's words, Luo Xia then put away her fighting posture, came to Moon's side, and checked it on him.

"I don't blame you, I have to thank you. My little life has finally been saved, and I can live to the third episode!" At this time, Moon did not lie at all, although he felt that the other party had no malicious intentions, and it was just a kind of resignation to fate in the absence of any way, otherwise?

"The subordinates have been derelict in their duties. Luo Xia said, her eyes were a little red. She felt very aggrieved, since Moon participated in the Butterfly Trial, she had encountered danger several times, either because of the relationship between the two countries, she couldn't quickly eliminate it, or she had too many worries to take Moon to retreat directly. This time it was a problem in front of her eyes, right next to her! Luo Xia almost lost her mind for a few moments, and just wanted to blast all the guys who got in the way to the scum.

"Hehe, I know you're worried about me. Moon handed Xiaobai to Emma, got up and hugged Luo Xia, and ran his fingers over her beautiful eyes, wiping away tears that didn't exist.

"Didn't I try so hard to survive until you came to me, and besides, didn't you come too? The hands holding Luo Xia tightened and patted her back. "Don't blame yourself, without you, I'm afraid I'll be gone before I live to play. Not to mention working hard to the third episode. ”

"The young master has been talking stupid all day long. Luo Xia smiled reluctantly, and her smile seemed a little difficult.

"You didn't say hug me?" Moon leaned a little farther away, looked at Luo Xia, but didn't let go.

"Someone..."Luo Xia blushed rarely.

"Hurry!ahhh ”

"Long hair is inconvenient. Luo Xia whispered as she wrapped her arms around Moon.

"Hmm..."I don't know if it was disgusted by the greasy between Moon and Luo Xia, the blue warrior moved, and he walked to the place where the table and chair were placed before. The ice rose from the ground, and after a few breaths, something exactly like before stood there. He placed the skeleton in his hand on the chair, and with a wave of his hand, a layer of ice covered it. With another wave, the ice shattered behind several people, revealing a pitch-black hole.

The runes flashed, and the triangular gate reappeared, and the warrior glanced at a few people, stepped into the gate, and disappeared.

With Luo Xia by his side, Moon's courage suddenly increased. I didn't think about any of these anymore, and walked towards the entrance of the cave with a few people, and after some tossing, a few people finally crawled back to the ground. It's ironic to think that there is still an underground in this underground world.

"Where's Bone Dance?" Moon exhaled heavily, finally seeing the light root again.

"I asked her to take the others back to the camp by the lake. Luo Xia's expression was a little complicated, thinking that Bone Dance didn't say a word when she came back before, she jumped into the water wearing heavy armor, and finally under Luo Xia's persuasion, she reluctantly took the remnants of the army to the lakeside camp, no way, the dark elves who followed the city were too recognizable, Moon was not there, only she and Bone Dance were the best to talk to. As for the bone dance, Luo Xia also persuaded her to move with the reason of keeping Moon's hard work.

"Well, well done. The camp's..."

"The Annihilators are almost all wiped out, and the landslides are among them. Only a small number of others escaped. ”

"Well, got it. Moon's expression at this time was very calm. Just thought about it for a while, and turned to Turing, Emma, and Xiaobai behind him to thank them one by one.

"Anyway, thank you. A few people didn't know which one Moon was doing, so they had to politely say that he was serious or something.

Under the leadership of Luo Xia, several people came to the previous "camp" location, which is now an abyss of water, floating with all kinds of materials and boxes. Moon stared at it for a long time, not saying a word.

"How long?" Moon asked suddenly.

"It's been almost a whole day. Luo Xia knew he was asking about the aftermath of the attack.

"Well, let's go, they shouldn't have arrived yet, we can catch up quickly, that camp can't stay for long. Moon remembered the Fish-Man.

Although Xiaobai is weak, she is not a big lady who has not suffered hardships, only Turing's little short legs are a little difficult to run. Under the protection of Luo Xia, several people finally caught up with the somewhat decadent team in front.

Gu Wu saw Moon beside Luo Xia, separated the crowd, rushed to Moon in a few steps, and hugged her tightly in his arms.

"Ahh

"Murder of my own husband?" Moon made a dying appearance.

(laughs)" Bone Dance grabbed Moon with both hands and shook it vigorously like shaking a towel, and sure enough, Moon was alive again.

"Resurrection!" Moon yelled, reinvigorating himself.

In the makeshift camp, Moon probably knew about the different experiences of the two waves of people. Needless to say, on the camp side, Bone Dance, from the beginning, there were only mid-level and low-level demonic beasts, and then high-level demonic beasts suddenly appeared, and the strength was so strong, even if Bone Dance used all his strength to kill it, the fifteen squads also had their own losses. But compared to those left behind in the camp, it was still much better.

According to statistics, only about three of the fifteen squadrons survived, and the others either sank to the bottom of the water, or were taken advantage of by the fishmen in the water, and one of the only thirteen squadron leaders, the landslide was not spared. The fathead fish was dismantled by the fat-headed donkey for the first time, otherwise Moon would have thought about trying it and seeing if he could ask if anything. After all, Bone Dance had translated its words before.

It's just that when I asked Bone Dance if I could still understand the language of the fish man, Bone Dance shook his head and only said two words, coincidence. After briefly comforting everyone, Moon directly ordered the retreat to Jixiang City. Fortunately, the map drawn earlier has already been rubbed in many copies, and there is no loss. Along the way, Moon was silent, always frowning, Bone Dance wouldn't, Luo Xia didn't want to interrupt him. The atmosphere when the team returned to the city was really different from when they came, and it seemed a little gloomy.

After several days of trekking, the expedition finally returned to Jicheng City. The guards guarding the city gate were keenly aware of the strange atmosphere of the team, and they did not talk any nonsense, and directly welcomed the team into the city, arranging for the team to rest and reorganize.

Long before Moon left, he had arranged for someone to move the things from Stormwind to Jicheng City, and now he was lying on his bed, staring at the starry sky above, in a stupid daze, and he hadn't gotten out of bed for days.

Tihua, who had completed the task, had also returned to Jixiang City, and she didn't have a good way to face Moon who was in a daze, and she even tried to spit on Moon. According to previous experience, Moon would definitely jump up and beat her, but this time Moon didn't react, God knows how much courage she mustered to do it, and it didn't work at all!

The news of the expedition gradually spread throughout the city, and for a time the atmosphere in the city was strange and difficult, and there were all kinds of words, some said that this time it was ambushed, some said that it was simply attacked by the aborigines, some said that Moon did not have the experience and ability to lead the team, some said that Moon was calculated, and so on.

Even Luo Xia didn't expect that this time things would develop like this, but Moon just didn't care about it, lying there in a daze, and only moved when it was convenient to eat and drink.

"Sister Luo Xia. In a certain room, Tihua followed Luo Xia, who was preparing food for Moon, "Moon, he will be fine, the casualties of nearly two hundred are a bit big, did it hit him?" Tika looked a little worried.

"Yes. ”

"Huh, what then?"

"Wait for the young master to crawl out by himself. ”

"Huh?"

Luo Xia turned her head and smiled at Tihua, who seemed at a loss, "The young master once asked me a question. ”

"What, what, what?"

"If a person who is standing on the edge of a cliff looking down, about to fall, asks me for help and asks me what I will do. ”

"Huh, what did my sister say?"

"Look, or save him. ”

"Sure!" said Tyka, who thought for a moment, as if she had no other choice.

Luo Xia smiled and asked Tihua, "Right and wrong?"

"Standards? It is... Justice!"

"So what is justice?"

"Help the weak! for the benefit of one party!" Tyhua thought for a moment, she thought that what Moon was doing now could be regarded as benefiting the party?

"What if, in the process of benefiting one side, it is necessary to slaughter the weak?"

"No...... bar. "Tihua is a little weak-hearted.

"What if, for the benefit of one side, some weak creatures must be slaughtered to provide for the survival of those on that side?"

"This..."

"These are all questions that the young master asked me before, and it's far away. I just want to say that the standard of right and wrong is different in everyone's mind, and there is no need to judge everything by right and wrong. ”

"Hmm... Seemingly, it makes sense. Tihua thought about it, it was nothing more than a matter of position, and it was not difficult to understand.

"The young master didn't say that I was right at the time, nor did he say that I was wrong. He only told me what he did. ”

"Oh, what would Moon do?"

The young master said that he would walk over, tell the other party how to climb the cliff, and then push the other person. ”

"Huh?" Tihua was a little stunned, not to mention why she didn't die after falling, why did she push others?

"I was just as confused as you were. Luo Xia smiled, looking a little nostalgic, "The young master said, 'Since you know that there is a cliff ahead, you still choose to approach, then you have to bear the consequences of falling. The others are not obligated to help him, and telling him the way to climb up is already benevolent and righteous. As for whether he can climb up from the bottom of the cliff, it's up to him.'" ”

Tyka frowned, thinking about it carefully.

"The young master continued, 'I don't care whether it's right or wrong, I don't care if you agree with it or not, everyone has their own ideas, opinions, and positions, and I won't force anyone to agree with me, it's not interesting, and it's not necessary. If there happens to be someone who agrees with me, then everyone is a friend and can cooperate. If you don't agree, it has nothing to do with me, I don't need to, and I don't force anyone to agree with me. ’”

"Pretty ...... Around--!" Tihua frowned, carefully recalling Luo Xia's words.

"And what does this have to do with Moon now?"

"The young master said, 'Sometimes, some people, even if you tell the other person not to go near the cliff and how to climb the cliff, the other party still lingers at the bottom of the cliff. 'Why is that?'

"Why?" Tinka felt like she was taking a philosophy class.

Because these people, although they know a lot of facts and a lot of truths, they will be immersed in their own choices, their own world, and they can't extricate themselves. So never to climb up. ”

"I understand, Sister Luo Xia said so much, just so I don't have to worry about Moon, he will climb up on his own, right?"

"Clever. ”

"Then why didn't my sister tell me before?"

"Huh?" Luo Xia tilted her head and smiled badly, "First, you didn't ask." Second. Luo Xia paused, "Looking at the way you are worried, it's cute." ”

At the moment of "......", Tiehua wanted to bite someone, is it that people who have been with Moon for a long time are so badly beaten? Considering the reality that her combat strength is only five, she decisively gave up. Instead, he rushed behind Luo Xia, holding her towering peaks from behind her back with both hands.

"I've wanted to try it for a long time, but I didn't expect it to feel so good. Tihua learned from Moon's cheap appearance, hehehehehehehehehe

With a "snap", Tihua hurriedly felt a hot pain in her buttocks, and turned back angrily, only to see Moon's dissatisfaction.

"That's my exclusive use, you want to rebel?" Moon also tried to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but was dodged by Tihua.

"Oh, young master, are you willing to get out of bed?" said Tihua in a weird manner.

Moon ignored her, leaned over to Luo Xia, craned her neck to see what she was cooking, and then said, "I don't think I can finish eating these, I need someone to eat with me." ”

Moon ignored the Dihua who poked his head out and pointed at him, pulled Luo Xia and walked to the bedroom, and didn't forget to turn back to Dihua and say, "Whoever is who, bring things in, I want to talk to Luo Xia about life and ideals first." ”

"Being an elf can be so shameless, and it's also the number one in the world. Tihua pouted, babbling, picked up the food that had been prepared, and followed. But she's still quite happy, being able to bully her at least means that Moon is alive?
