"I never expected that the copy was burned so thoroughly by the human-faced spider, and it could be reopened." Song Yu couldn't help but be speechless.

Xie Nanshi looked at the night through the window screen, as quiet and serene as ever, and he couldn't tell that just a few hours ago, this ancient border city was almost destroyed. "What does it have to do with the ruined temple where he is hiding?"

"It's possible, or it's just scene reuse." Song Yu handed a pot of warm peach blossom wine to Xie Nanshi: "Why don't you talk about you first?" What does it have to do with that stranger? ”

Xie Nanshi didn't answer immediately, but just put the sight that had been falling out of the window back into the house. His eyes still seemed to be calm, but someone as familiar with him as Song Yu could see the blankness that flashed in his eyes.

It's like a question that has puzzled him for a long time, and he can't find a way out, and he can't see a way back.

He shouldn't have told anyone, not to mention that Song Yu was not from this realm after all, even if he trusted the other party, he should have reservations. However, when Xie Nanshi looked directly into Song Yu's eyes, his heartstrings, which had been tense, unconsciously relaxed.

It turned out that he had already unconsciously recognized this person. It is the same existence as the Sword Pavilion, the senior brother and the father. "I should have something to do with him, but it's just a vague feeling."

Song Yu's heart jumped, and he asked tentatively, "Do you have relatives who died at the hands of strange ghosts?" ”

"There are a lot of them. But they were all properly buried. This kind of propriety not only refers to the integrity of their funeral, but also to the fact that their bodies will never be devoured by foreign beasts and occupied by strange spirits.

Song Yu couldn't think of a reason, so he had to comfort Xie Nanshi: "Rest first, and when we see that strange ghost again tomorrow, we may be able to unlock your plot...... Explain how you feel. ”

Song Yu coughed, his brain had been spent all this time thinking about the motives of the strange ghosts, and he was becoming less and less attentive when he spoke in front of Xie Nanshi, an insider. It's just that the current atmosphere is obviously not right, and he should still think about it a little.

Fortunately, Xie Nanshi didn't listen as attentively as usual, so he naturally didn't catch or even care about this small word. I just groaned "um".

Then he looked out the window, and the night was deep but incomparably long.

……

"Nephew, do you want to think about it again?" Zhou Qinian did not let go according to the state of life and death.

At this time, the sun had not yet risen, and the sky and the earth were dark under the new moon, and the strange ghosts were still trying to break through the formation at night. In that "bang" sound, the lights in the city were already lit up. By candlelight, everyone signed their names on the life and death certificates, and left a book to explain the aftermath to their families.

Song Yu was stuck in the shell when he signed the life and death certificate, and he didn't grab it twice, and looked at Zhou Qinian helplessly: "Old Zhou, I thought that by this time, you should no longer worry about promotion." ”

Zhou Qinian's eyelids twitched: "Nonsense, is that a promotion issue?" You are still young, and you have not cultivated your body, what is the difference between running out of the battle at this time and looking for death? ”

He Zhou Qinian coaxed Song Yu at the beginning because of the other party's background, but after getting along for so long, he had already regarded the other party as his own nephew, not to mention that the ability shown by Song Yu this time has proved that he is not a gentleman, but has a gap in his chest. Naturally, he didn't want him to run out and die.

"I'm not that easy to die." Song Yu couldn't grab anyone, so he simply tore off the corner of the signature and quickly signed: "I won't kill you." ”

Zhou Qinian couldn't stop it and sighed, his eyes were glued to the signature in his hand, and he seemed to want to snatch it back: "Why do you bother, why do you have to go out of the city?" ”

"Don't worry, Lord Zhou, I will protect him." Xie Nanshi handed the life and death certificate he signed to Zhou Qinian, and at the same time may have made a promise.

"You ......" Zhou Qinian was speechless for a while: "Forget it, forget it, I can't control you young people." ”

He sighed as he spoke, put down the other half of Song Yu's life and death form, and walked aside with his hands behind his back. From the background, his back was obviously bent a little, and white hair was visible on the top of his head.

In this strange ghost siege, Yongxi didn't seem to have lost much on the surface, but only Zhou Qinian, who was the head of the Ping An Division, knew how many lives were filled in during this period.

Most of those were his former comrades-in-arms, and they were the people who would greet him every day. If he could, he didn't want anyone around him to disappear.

Song Yu retracted his gaze at Zhou Qinian's back, and put together his life and death, but did not prepare any family letters. After all, he's just a player, and he hasn't even figured out who the character's family is, and even if he wants to write, he doesn't know where to start.

However, Xie Nanshi actually took out the book from his arms, but used a spell to completely seal the seal of the letter, and handed the letter to Qi Rong: "If I can't come back, you can open the first path of this letter and send it to the upper position with the body of the random Taoist leader." ”

Qi Rong's eyes were red and he nodded heavily, he wanted to say something, but he let out an embarrassing cry first. So he pursed his mouth tightly. If he could, he also wanted to walk outside the city with a knife and become the first line of attack in front of the city. But he can't, he is the young state lord of Yongxi Prefecture, and he has the responsibility to sit in the rear.

Xie Nanshi didn't say anything, reached out and touched his head, then walked to the side and looked in the direction of the city wall, quietly waiting for the others to say goodbye to their families.

Qi Rong closed his eyes, suddenly ran to Song Yu, took off the jade pendant he had been wearing around his neck and stuffed it into Song Yu's hand: "Come back alive." ”

He gritted his teeth when he said this, and at first glance he couldn't even tell whether he was expecting someone to come back or not coming back.

Song Yu couldn't cry or laugh, hung up the jade pendant, and pinched Qi Rong's cheeks with a little baby fat: "I'll try my best." ”

Qi Rong knocked off his hand, turned around and ran. This kid has grown up, and he knows how to be shy, and even if he cries, he doesn't want others to hear him.

Song Yu looked at the people around him who were immersed in parting, and for some reason suddenly felt a little lonely. He's a guy outside of the game, he never has any friends, and he doesn't seem to have much to leave for anyone else in the game.

In the end, he thought about it and picked up the pen again, leaving a line for Qiao Yi: "If you wake up and the young master is gone, you can go home." ”

When you are done, the sunrise is not far away.

The sound of opening the city gate in the quiet night can be said to be huge, and Song Yu only found out at this time that the root of the city wall was also brightly lit.

The formation only defends against strange ghosts, not against strange beasts. During the day, if there is no cultivator in the town, the strange beasts will not be able to attack the city gates, so they will attack the city walls. But fortunately, at night, the strange beasts often retreated, and only the strange ghosts of different colors flew around Yongxi Prefecture one by one.

The craftsmen had to take advantage of this extremely limited time to repair the walls and build fortifications overnight in the narrow gap between the area of the formation (often the location of the moat) and the city walls, enduring the nuisance of unspeakable terror behind them.

At this time, these craftsmen were attracted by the sound of the city gates being opened. Young and old, most of their faces were stained with sand and mud, and their expressions were a little numb, but their eyes when they looked at Xie Nanshi and the others were full of reverence and expectation.

Song Yu knew that those eyes were given to Xie Nanshi and these elite soldiers of the Ping An Division, so he didn't take this gaze.

Among the craftsmen, I don't know who started and sang "Song of the Distance". However, the pronunciation of the ancient sound is obviously not standard, and the tune is also out of tune. But no one thought it was funny, everyone felt another tragedy.

In the night, drums suddenly sounded on the castle tower. That's the signal to go out.

In an instant, the Ping An Division and the city guards had already rushed out of the range of the formation. Different from the people in the rivers and lakes, they are already well-trained, and they have obtained the monster-fighting strategies provided by Song Yu before, which makes them even more invincible. In a short time, they had already cleared a way to Yuan'ao Mountain without any obstacles.

In order to keep up with Xie Nanshi, Song Yu put on an old friend's light talisman again. But this time, Xie Nanshi no longer held back, and tried to rush to the temple before dawn. No one knows when the stranger will be able to open the Sky Drain again, they don't have much time, and they have little opportunity for trial and error, so they have no time to waste.

So this time, Song Yu was not so much as light as a swallow, but like a kite at all, pulled by Xie Nanshi and floating behind him. Song Yu felt the pain of his body being torn apart. He was afraid of the pain to death, but now he didn't say a word, and even his expression didn't change much.

For some reason, in this battle, Song Yu's self-confidence based on the identity of a "player" seems to be constantly decreasing.

He only felt that something called "fate" was cruelly pushing him, rubbing him into "Seeing God".

Let him want to do something for the "people" of this world. The player is already called the Fourth Natural Calamity, and the fear of death is abnormal, isn't it?

Song Yu built it in his heart, and gradually had the meaning of breaking through the limit, and he had the spare strength to observe the surroundings. At night, Song Yu's eyesight was not so good, but the map clearly and faithfully marked the strange beasts and strange ghosts in his field of vision for Song Yu.

"How?" Xie Nanshi's voice penetrated into Song Yu's cochlea from the sound transmission.

"It's in the right direction." Song Yu took a breath of wind when he spoke, but even so, he still didn't forget the ridicule in his words: "But this mother is more fertile than we imagined, and it's densely packed here." ”

On the map, the ruined temple is still such a dilapidated temple, but the surroundings are much more lively than the last time the two came. Countless strange ghosts and beasts surrounded the temple in clusters.

Song Yu's eyesight is not good, but Xie Nanshi can see it clearly. These strange ghosts and beasts, mixed and entangled regardless of race, most of them do not seem to be very complete. The skin of the strange ghost is mutilated, or there is no skin, and the soul is mutilated. There are more things that can be less on the beast, tails, claws, fangs...... Their wounds are even gurgling and bleeding.
