"You're going to the Eastern Continent?" Hong'er said, her eyes lit up, "I've never been there." The implication is clear. Purple butterflies and drifting snow are also strange. After Tang Rui went to Zijin City that time, he asked Hong'er to live in the inn with Zidie and Piaoxue, and when he came back, more than two months had passed, and Hong'er's habit of living in the inn had been staying. Tang Rui was going to check the Ghost Sect this time, and he would inevitably not be able to come back for a long time, so he came to say goodbye to the three of them. But as soon as he saw Hong'er's expression, he immediately regretted telling her that he was going to Donglu.

Tang Rui said with a sad face: "Hong'er, this time I am not going to play, but I have something to investigate." ”

Hong'er looked yearning and said: "You check yours, I'll play with mine, it's not in the way, besides, multiple people can also take care of it." ”

When Tang Rui heard this, he thought that when the time came, he would enter the Ghost Sect alone, and Hong'er would wait outside, and there would indeed be no hindrance. Besides, it must be a long way to go, and it is really boring to be alone, and it must be more fun to have Hong'er. After thinking for a moment, he finally said, "Okay, I'll take you with me." ”

Hong'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay." ”

Zi Die looked at Tang Rui's expression, seemed to have guessed something, and said softly: "Tang Rui, I have nothing to do if Piaoxue and I stay here, so it's better to go together." ”

Piao Xuedai's eyebrows moved, and she said, "Yes, yes, it's very boring to stay here all the time." ”

Tang Rui looked at the two of them, full of gratitude, and said, "It was very tiring for you to help me deliver the letter before, this trip is a long way, and your injuries have not healed yet, how can you still run away with me." In addition, Master Zizai and Gutong went to Amaterasumon. If there is any change, they will come to you, and you are here waiting for their letter. The stakes are high, more important than what I'm going to do this time. ”

Purple Butterfly thought for a moment and said, "Okay then, you guys be careful all the way." ”

Tang Rui nodded and said, "You guys should also take care." ”

"Hong'er, Tang Ruike will be handed over to you, you have to take care of him. Piaoxue said suddenly.

Hong'er was stunned. rolled his eyes and said, "Needless to say, I will definitely take care of him." ”

Drifting Snow's eyes moved. "But as far as I know, someone needs us to take care of themselves. Hong'er's face immediately turned red. Tang Rui couldn't help but snicker.

Purple Butterfly held back a smile, glanced at Piaoxue, and said, "Piaoxue." Just count your words. "Drifting Snow doesn't say anything. Just sticking out your tongue.

Tang Rui saw that the three of them had become such friends, and he was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Purple Butterfly, Piaoxue, don't worry, I will take care of Hong'er, no matter how dangerous it is, I will be fine." The two of them were relieved and nodded.

It's the beginning of January. The sky was overcast, and the clouds were thick as if they were about to be pressed down. The cold wind swept over their faces like knives, and blew the dead grass on the ground in all directions. As far as the eye can see, it is full of desolation, and there is no human population in sight.

"It's a more desolate place than the Western Continent. Hong'er looked at the endless wasteland in front of her and frowned.

Tang Rui looked at her expression and said with a wicked smile: "I said a long time ago that this is not a game, you insisted on coming." ”

Hong'er glanced at him and said, "Are you making fun of me?"

Tang Rui hurriedly waved his hand and said, "How dare I?"

Hong'er sighed and said, "After walking for so many days, why haven't you arrived yet?"

Tang Rui glanced forward and said, "This is already the Eastern Continent, and it should be there in a few days." "It's been six days since he left Heavenly Fire City, Tang Rui followed the rough map drawn by Yang Wei all the way to the east, and just yesterday he crossed the Eastern Boundary Mountain and entered the Eastern Continent.

The cold wind roared, the cold was biting, and the heaven and earth seemed to have become an incomparably huge ice cellar, and as soon as people stopped, their bodies would immediately freeze. The two didn't say much, and continued to move forward, just a few steps away, Hong'er suddenly exclaimed, "It's snowing!"

Tang Rui was startled when he heard this, stopped, and sure enough, he saw that snowflakes began to fly around him, and on the boundless wasteland, the sky was white, the wind and snow danced, and after a while, the earth had been dyed snow-white. Although the cold is almost freezing, in the face of this beautiful scene, people can't help but stop and admire.

Tang Rui smiled and said, "Hong'er, do you still remember, at this time last year, we were still at Uncle Xiang's house in Thunder City, and we spent the New Year with them." ”

Hong'er leaned on Tang Rui's shoulder and smiled: "Remember, that New Year was really lively." ”

Tang Rui sighed: "Yes." After a pause, he said, "How about it?" Do you still think this place is desolate, I am afraid that there is no other place to see this beautiful scenery except here, and if you want me to say, just seeing this beautiful scenery is worth the trip. ”

Hong'er shrunk her neck and didn't speak, but moved closer to Tang Rui. Tang Rui smiled faintly and hugged her tighter.

The two of them didn't talk anymore, just quietly admired the snow, they sat in a ball-like fiery red barrier, as soon as the snow fell on the barrier, it quickly melted, unable to fall on them, Xiao Tian lay motionless beside them, looking at the falling snow one after another. In the snow-white sky, only a small patch of black earth was where they were.

The snow became heavier and thicker, and the sky and the earth became a white expanse, as if they were one piece. Although it was difficult to tell the time of day on a snowy day, Tang Rui still noticed that the sky was gradually darkening. If they stayed in this wasteland all night, they would definitely freeze, and the two did not dare to stay longer, and began to move on.

Walking out of the wasteland and flying over a high mountain, there is a large forest in front of you, where the trees are evergreen all year round, and even in this cold winter, they are still green.

Tang Rui and Hong'er walked into the woods side by side, "Wang!" Xiaotian's barking suddenly came from behind him.

Tang Rui turned around and saw that Xiao Tian was far away and stopped moving, he walked closer, his eyes were full of joy, there was a string of human footprints on the snow, extending all the way to the south. The two of them followed the footsteps, skirting a hill and entering a valley surrounded by mountains, at the foot of which there was a village, and in the white sky there was a smoke rising from the sky.

Entering the village, an old man at the entrance of the village saw two snowmen walking in, and couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly beckoned the two into the house.

Seeing that the two of them were warm, the old man asked why they came here.

"Eastern Continent Martial King?" The old man listened to Tang Rui's words, and said in a lost voice: "You really hit the right place, this is Qu Ting's hometown." There was a hint of surprise in Tang Rui's eyes, if they went all the way east, they would definitely not be able to find this place.

The old man's eyes suddenly darkened, and he sighed: "It's a pity that a few years ago, their family was killed by wicked people, and a few months ago, Qu Ting's ashes were sent back and buried with his family, and the Qu family was completely empty." ”

After Tang Rui listened, his face became solemn.

"This is the cemetery of the Qu family. The old man pointed to the five high tombs in front of him and said gloomily.

"Thank you, uncle. Tang Rui lowered his head, and after speaking, he walked forward slowly, and the tomb was covered with snow and turned into a spotless snow-white color. He knelt down in front of a grave and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Qu, I came to see you, Yang Wei has been imprisoned, and he will no longer harm anyone." I will never forget your words. You...... Rest assured. ”

It was getting dark, but the snow was still falling, and the snow was like a mourning paper raised, paying tribute to the dead. (To be continued......)
