By the time we arrived at the next town, it was dusk.

The wind and snow had stopped, but the road was bumpy and difficult, and everyone in the convoy was exhausted, so they casually packed up and camped on the spot.

The remnant sun is like blood.

Zhou Lingyu looked at the afterglow that was about to pass away in the west, perhaps because she was touched by the scene, and let out a slight sigh.

This sigh touched the nerves of several people, and Liu Xuan was the fastest one among them.

"Lingyu, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm a little tired, let's rest."

Liu Xuan looked at Zhou Lingyu's tired expression, moved his lips, and said, "Lingyu, you don't have to worry too much, no matter how many people come from the Futu Sect, I, Liu Xuan, will advance and retreat with you." ”

Zhou Lingyu stroked the hair on the corner of her forehead, tilted her head to look at the sky, her eyes were indifferent and lofty, and said softly: "I don't know whether this choice is right or wrong." If I am alone, it will be fine, but hundreds of thousands of people in the city that never sleep......"

"Lingyu, don't worry, with me, I won't let that kind of thing happen!" Liu Xuan patted his chest and guaranteed.

"You see him now, and you can't get rid of the phantom array under your face."

"How long has he been here? Why is it a sound? ”

"He's louder." Wei Qin shook off my arm and said, "It's all people from Night City, and he says good things about people behind his back, but it's bad to be heard." ”

Yingfu, who was dancing quickly on the slope, suddenly stopped moving.

Lingyu looked at you in a daze, looking at these beautiful eyes, after that graceful demeanor, for some reason, I was burned for a while, and an urge to hug the beautiful woman in my arms poured out of my heart.

Wei Qin was also taken aback, and when he looked back, he saw City Lord Zhou standing quietly in front of him.

You sigh high, "So, you really want me to see you age." ”

Jiang Chen wanted to ask me about Ling Sixue, but knowing something, he suddenly became deflated, and said sullenly: "He has too few confidants, guess it." ”

"you!"

Lin Xi paused in the door for a while, looking at the arrangement behind the tent. I heard the greeting from outside, and I strolled in.

Jiang Chen was still sitting at the foot of the big slope in the west, his pupils reflecting the bright night, and he was stunned.

"Where?"

"He thinks his colleague Ling Sixue doesn't have that possibility?" Lin Xi blinked.

Wei Qinke's voice was indifferent and ethereal, and when he recited the Taoist mantra, his temperament also changed, sometimes like the clouds on the horizon, and sometimes as clear and arrogant as a snow lotus under an iceberg. Listening to Lin Xi's ears, there is no kind of hallucinatory taste that attracts people's hearts.

Wei Qin and Lin Xi glanced at each other, their faces turned red, and said, "He misunderstood......"

I took a few bad steps, and my eyes were always away from Wei Qinke's face, and I didn't blink before ten breaths.

"He said in the future that there will be no man in the prophecy who can end the troubled times, and it shouldn't be Miss Zhou, right?"

"There is no "Yan Shan Zhang" in "Liuli Jue", which is very unhelpful to your injury, you read it again, he will remember it first."

INTERVIEWER What kind of role do you think you are? An object that cannot be co-opted and used, or a courtier, a squire, or a knight?

"Just lighting a candle is also to let you see what he looks like? Why would it be worse to simply remove all the lights that were gone? ”

The night is getting darker.

The delicate beauty of the city lord of Zhou added a layer of redness, and his eyes reflected the flickering candlelight, an understatement glance, but it seemed that there were no ten thousand styles.

The city lord of Zhou half-squinted, clasped the ten fingers of his hands behind his big belly, like a king asking his courtiers, and said lightly: "Did you receive a reply from the letter sent out earlier?" ”

"Haha, Lao Yang, I finally pried his golden mouth open!" Wei Qin smiled and put his hand on my shoulder, "Of course you don't have such stupid ideas, you and Miss Zhou are now in the same boat, if you die, will it be your turn to be the last one?" Yes, you think you look like you can be a savior. He thinks about it, what are you Night City like now? Nepotism, treachery, few people outside the low-rise are surnamed Zhou? What can a group of men do? The lord of a city thinks about how to collect the elixir to restore his youth, thinking that he is an old enemy who forgets the future, and he still wants to help the heavens to end the troubled times? You see, the old fortune teller in his family has drunk too little this day! ”

"Something, you just came, and you heard everything." City Lord Zhou pursed his lips and smiled, "Congratulations to him, the range of recipes has been expanded again!" ”

"You and Lao Yang are brothers who have died, and eating and sleeping together is a big deal!" Lin Xi waved his hand, "Is Zhou Lingyu here to find you?" ”

“……”

Of course, Yingfu ignored your question, walked into the camp in small steps, and ran to a tent.

That smile is like a spring breeze and rain, and your icy pupils have become as soft and bright as a spring breeze, and Lingyu's heart is shaking.

"Hmmm......"

"It's not so much of a coincidence." The corners of City Lord Zhou's mouth pulled up a wry smile, and his expression was a little dark, "In particular, you need two to eight days to recover, today is the first day, and it is also the most important time, you need a trustworthy person to help you protect the Fa, think about it, but I didn't ask him for help." ”

Jiang Chen thought for a moment, then shook his head again and again: "You have this potential. ”

But it was only for a moment, and it was hot again.

"Is it to save oil by lighting only one candle?" Lin Xi asked.

When I talked about Wei Qin, Jiang Chen's eyelids jumped, and when it came to Su Yunqing, Jiang Chen's eyelids jumped again, raised his head and stared at me, but Lin Xi stopped talking.

"I heard that he has a shallow relationship with the Great Immortal of Fanghuaguan, have you taught him "Liuli Jue"?"

Jiang Chen followed closely in front of it and shouted, "Yingfu, where is he going?" This is the residence of Miss Xiyu, what does he want to do? ”

"Tell me about this, did you just say it without reason?"

Lin Xi turned his head to look at the shadows of the bookcases, tables and chairs stretched by the candlelight, and said, "Instead of lighting a candle so gloomy, it's like——"

“…… Yes, it has been taught. ”

Lingyu knew that you were really tired, and you were willing to say a word less, so she hugged her fists and quickly moved forward.

“……”

"Well, come here."

As the lord of Zhou, I am afraid that there is no such word as "thrifty" in the dictionary of the lord of a city. Judging from your personality, Xiaoxuan will also create an ambiguous atmosphere with yourself. So, the meaning revealed by the details of such a micro is the foot, which is so complicated.

- Do you know that you are the only one who is like this to you, or is there any woman in the world in your heart who cannot stand with you?

But the corners of City Lord Zhou's mouth rose with a happy expression, and it was like pouring a basin of hot water on his head, which made Lingyu completely confused.

"How are you going to protect him?"

I am Lingyu, and I have the idea of suffering so little.

The city lord of Zhou was already waiting outside here.

"He's aware of it, right?" Wei Qinke's voice seemed a little ethereal in the room, "Your current state is very bad, and the old disease has recurred......

Under the big slope in the west, Wei Qin and Jiang Chen were also looking at the sunset.

City Lord Zhou may care about some extravagant pomp, but as the lord of a city, your living place is the same as everyone else's. Although it is luxurious, it is narrow and elegant, and it is antique.

"Glow?" Wei Qin was also awakened, feeling the murderous aura that suddenly surged under Yingyu, and hurriedly got up and followed.

Regarding Liu Xuan's bold words, she only sneered: "Young Master Liu, you are too confident." Without the help of the Liu family, your strength alone is just a drop in the bucket! ”

I intend to leave immediately, lest I be caught off guard by the Futu Sect. When I turned over and dismounted, I was still thinking in my heart, such an outstanding figure, the dignified little son of the Liu family, who was destined to dominate one side in the future, why there was no inexplicable contradiction behind the face of the lord of Zhou City......

"Do you want to say that, although you have few confidants, there are only a few who have no potential. In fact, do you think he should change his thinking, is to always focus on Miss Zhou, you and you are just a cooperative relationship, and the pattern is also big, so what is there any hope. The person he should really pay attention to is Liu Xuan, you now sit on the Lin family and the Qingyin Palace, and your power can be said to be the best in the world, even if His Majesty the Emperor comes back to life, he will definitely be able to beat you, yes, yes? It's better for him to go to you as soon as possible! ”

Although the male swordsman guarding the gate of the camp felt that the white-clothed swordsman who came in with a menacing momentum was not a little strange, he thought that it was a distinguished guest brought by the city lord himself today, so he only asked symbolically if he was in any way.

My gaze swept under the face of the City Lord of Zhou, and my attention was less focused on the lampstand.

"That's hard work for him." Wei Qinke raised his eyelids and smiled slightly.

Perhaps because of depression and fatigue, Zhou Lingyu didn't have the energy to put on a posture of a warm spring breeze and a wisdom pearl in her hand, at this time her real face was haggard and indifferent, as cold as a piece of ice, and her eyes reflected the red glow, exuding a strange light.

Of course, Lin Xi also appreciates the charming style of that stunning man, but my vision at this time is no longer what it used to be.

"Oh, I received a summons from the jade talisman just now, and it's not easy to say here, you plan to go there yourself and convince your uncle."

But you on the candlelight are still a little more charming than usual, even if it is just a little, it is enough to make people thrilled.

It turned its head to look to the east, as if it had smelled something, and suddenly its figure rose from the ground, carrying a white demon wind towards the camp.

"Lao Yang, did he decide to follow Miss Zhou to Night City? Now that the emperor has died and the new lord has not been established, he can't bear to throw away that little bad country? With an identity like him, assisting a prince to ascend the throne and becoming a 4,000-year-old in power is the most important thing for him to do, right? Suddenly changed his mind, did it have nothing to do with the prophecy he said later? ”

"Does he think what you're saying makes sense? Why is it talking again? You know that he is to Miss Dulin, but it is a small business related to hundreds of millions of living beings, and he must be able to do things with personal likes and bad intentions! ”

"He deliberately broke away from Liu Gongzi, wasn't it because of that?"

- That kind of Zhou City Lord, that kind of demeanor and posture, is what I have been looking for. Throwing away these worldly masks and numb smiles, only the haggard man behind his eyes is the only reality in the entire illusory world.

"Can't you get closer?"

City Lord Zhou nodded: "You want to talk to him." ”

In the small room, there was only a lone candle flame, and it was a little darker.

Wei Qin knew that I was still angry with myself, and he also cared about my reaction, so he said to himself: "Since you are destined to end the troubled times, it seems that you are dead this time." Do you think that he doesn't believe in fate too much, and thinks that everything is predestined, which is too bad. You really want to see, I must have died in the hands of the Peacock King Xiaoming eight days ago, the destined savior said that there was one, what kind of expression should he have at this time? ”

It's the residence of the Night City Lord, what will it look like?

Wei Qin turned his head suddenly: "Wei Qinke! When did he come? ”

The candlelight shines on the jade people, and the frost and snow on the wrists.

Then, as if he had suddenly comprehended something, he glared at Lin Xi and gasped, "He and Sect Master Ling are also-"

Wei Qinke also admitted: "The reason why Liu Gongzi stayed by your side is to a small extent because of your ...... appearance."

The yellow shirt is fluttering, and the green silk is scattered.

"That's a bit rude. After all, Jiang Gongzi is also a distinguished guest of the Night City......"

Jiang Chen frowned: "He really doesn't have that kind of thought?" ”

"Who's coming?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Chen was as silent as a dumb man.

“……”

"Old Yang, old Yang, why has he become so atmospheric now?" Lin Xi sighed, pointed to Yingfu who was chasing butterflies and dancing swords on the slope and said, "Do you remember the scene when the two of us subdued Yingfu together?" It's really bad at this time, we have something to talk about, eat and live together, and even sleep under the same bed, and there is no Ying Xuan when we come......"

City Lord Zhou seemed to be contemplative, frowning slightly, and the expression under his face was a little too hot.

The room was completely plunged into white darkness, except for the moonlight in the window, which penetrated through the window screen and faded like frost.

Lin Xi saw it in his eyes, but there was a trace of distraction.

I stretched out my left hand, flicked my fingers, and a cloud of hot air shot out, and the candlelight went out.

"Old diseases? At what point? ”

“……”

When Lin Xi walked back, the windows in the quiet room were tightly closed, and there was a row of candles under the lampstand, only none of the candles were burning brightly, and they were big and swaying leisurely.

"What do you have with you?" Lin Xi waved his hand, "Does he think the Peach Blossom Assassin is not impossible?" ”

Lin Xi thought to himself, although you and Zhang Yuting almost got married to double cultivation, yes, have you ever taught you any Taoist mind.

Lingyu looked at you, the muscles under her face suddenly trembled, and her whole body trembled. That was the first time I saw the Night City Lord before the mask was on. This kind of low, lazy and numb, disdainful expression for the whole world, appeared for the first time under this beautiful face, the whole person was hot and cold, awe-inspiring like a fairy, and it was close to people.

Jiang Chen looked up at his palm and said, "The man in the prophecy didn't clearly indicate which one it was. Yes, at that time, you were under the sand dunes for half a month, and among the men you met, the only one with the most suitable conditions was Zhou Lingyu. ”

Lin Xi said with a smile: "Coincidentally, you will meet a low-ranking person named He Banxian in the Netherworld Forest in the future, and I also told you that there will be no man who will end the chaotic world before, and he has a lot to do with you." You thought it was Liu Xuan, and you thought it was Su Yunqing, why don't you come again......"

- It's a paradoxical feeling of wanting to get closer, but being afraid of being burned by the flames. Could it be that he has really become a moth to this fire, whenever he sees the face of the city lord of Zhou, he does not have an impulse that he can't help himself. He will be willing to be above anyone, even in the face of the emperor, but he is not behind the Lord of Zhou, but he is happy and convinced, and he is willing to charge into battle for you and go to the soup to fight the fire.

I also don't think it's a very ambiguous thing to light candles in the quiet room at dusk and talk to lonely women and widows.
