18. Fog (first shift)

Xia Xuan gave up the desire to continue to "look in the mirror", and with a thought, he dispersed the dark golden robe and mask, and fell on the bed.

"Obviously, I triggered Goldfinger because the number of killings reached a hundred.

And this item doesn't seem to be an upgradeable item, but rather an option that is triggered once triggered.

This option should have been triggered a long time ago, because with a powerful demon technique, there was no reason not to kill.

So, I didn't trigger this option today.

Instead, I triggered an option that should have been triggered a long time ago...

It's just that because I have magic skills but I haven't killed many people, I didn't get this hundred until today, and it was triggered.

As a result, I have an inexplicable identity, an existence that can be called a partner, and I am not dead with the other two pairs. ”

"I can feel that the woman wearing the mask of the peach branch is far, far away in the east, and she must have known nothing about everything, and the reason why she chose me was just a matter of luck. ”

"The question arises again, if those five people are in the same situation as me, then... If I had triggered this option three years ago, five years ago, would I have met them?

And if still, then, have they been waiting for me?

If not, would you meet someone else? Or what?"

Countless bewilderments entangled in it.

The world is like a fog that cannot be seen clearly.

Xia Xuan has nothing else except some basic geographical concepts.

The earth of this world is as infinite as the cosmic galaxy, and even if the blue stars of the previous life are spread out, the ground will not be one-ten-thousandth the size of the land here.

There are even myths and stories that children watch that seem to tell something...

The story says that the earth is infinitely expanding, and every moment and every moment, countless new lands are created, which will spread to the four poles without stopping.

This made Xia Xuan sound the "cosmic explosion theory" that he saw in Blue Star in his previous life.

After the explosion of the universe, space-time began to expand rapidly.

This world, this myth of "earth expansion", is so similar to the "cosmic explosion".

And the kingdoms of this world are incomparably numerous, as many as the sky full of stars.

It's just that those kingdoms, those secrets, are all in the fog.

The country that is on the verge of Shu is the country of Qi.

That's all the map has to offer.

Draftsmen don't have a better ability to draw distant worlds...

Further afield, of course, there are still maps, but maps have become strange, and some mappers have even begun to use their imagination to mark some mysterious creatures, strange symbols, or some people in strange costumes, some stories full of metaphors, some imaginary oceans, and countries.

In short, anyone can see that those maps are completely implausible except for the "Shu and Qi countries" and the "Fang Kingdom" further north of the Qi country.

Xia Xuan's understanding of this world stopped there.

To the east, where the Queen Mother of the West was located, it was perhaps the first time he realized that there were people in the far reaches who could connect with him.

For a moment, his mind exploded.

Call~~~

Call~~~

Xia Xuan stopped thinking, "It seems that this is really a world full of mysteries, since the woman wearing the mask of the peach branch said that what I am wearing is a blood-colored left eye, and I was also a blood-colored left eye in my previous life, there must be a connection, right?"

He lay on the bed, tossing and turning slightly, his thoughts drifting away, and then falling on some everyday scenes.

This image made him a little sleepless.

Especially when I think of the scene when the girl fell into the water and was washed away by the water, it was almost like sinking into a nightmare, and her body and mind were dark.

In the dead of night, he couldn't help but fade off that uninhibited countenance, and sat in the dark, looking at the darkness, reining in all laughter and optimism, and melting into the darkness.

Still unable to sleep, he got up and grabbed a decorative sword from the wall.

Sonor!

The sword is unsheathed.

Sonor!

The sword is unsheathed.

Unsheathed, unsheathed, unsheathed......

......

It's getting faster and faster.

Xia Xuan didn't use any strength, just drew his sword and retracted it so selflessly, this action was like a "painkiller", which could calm his mood.

After a few thousand times, he finally felt tired, hung his sword back on the wall, and then took off his boots, covered his head, and fell asleep.

Next.

The group descended the mountain.

The guards checked each other and found that the guards in the back mountain had not returned, so they sent someone to check.

At this glance, I directly saw the corpses halfway up the mountain, as well as the tragic situation at the foot of the back mountain.

The guards who were currently going to investigate returned, and after telling the information, all the guards immediately stood by, protected the young ladies in the center, and slowly walked towards the official road.

In addition, he sent people to hurry up and hurriedly go to the nearby national capital to report the situation.

After the talented women learned about the situation, the original romantic atmosphere of poetry and sadness suddenly became tense.

As long as everyone shuddered at the thought of "when I went to bed last night, there was such a fight in the back mountain, and so many people died".

Many people began to vaguely guess what the consequences would be if the Assassins on the mountainside went up to the top of the mountain.

Men are killed, women are humiliated, or taken away...

Aside from these two, there is little else possible.

So...

What happened in the back mountain last night?

Why so many corpses?

Will there be any more Assassins?

Panic suddenly boiled.

For a while, people were panicked.

Inside a carriage...

The fat man put away the "invincible" folding fan, turned over a knife and grabbed it in his hand, his eyes showed a bit of hideous and desperate look, he was a child of the general's family, and he was born without cowardice.

Su Qingmeng pulled the fat man to sit between her and Xia Xuan, and then said: "Zhou hatejiu, you are almost a second-grade martial artist, if something happens, you have to protect me and Xia Xuan." ”

Zhou hatjiu smiled: "I only protect Brother Xia Xuan." ”

When he said "brother", his voice swooped, obviously following Su Qingmeng's learning.

Su Qingmeng's face was black, but she was super scared in her heart...

In this year, a daughter of the Hou Mansion who had never even encountered bandits, encountered this situation, and felt as if she couldn't help herself and her life was hanging by a thread.

If it weren't for the fat man being hideous enough and the little grandfather being calm enough, Su Qingmeng would have been running around in a panic a long time ago.

She thought about it, the fat man is hideous, it is because of the problem of family education, and also because the fat man can also do martial arts.

But why is the little grandfather?

Su Qingmeng looked sideways at Xia Xuan curiously, and saw that the man in white looked like he hadn't slept well last night, with a pair of long legs stretched leisurely and comfortably, a spring and autumn book on his chest, and a smile on his face that would never be seen through.

Su Qingmeng leaned over and squinted at the face carefully...

Suddenly, Xia Xuan opened his eyes.

Su Qingmeng was startled, and immediately bounced up, patting his chest with his right hand.

Xia Xuan smiled: "Qingmeng, what are you afraid of?"

"I... I..."Su Qingmeng was speechless, and suddenly asked rhetorically, "Aren't you afraid?" So many people died in Houshan yesterday, I just heard from the guards, maybe they are all from the Demon Gate!"

Xia Xuan yawned and asked rhetorically, "Is it useful for you to worry?"

With that, he continued to close his eyes.

Su Qingmeng finally said curiously: "The fat man is not afraid, because he knows martial arts, Brother Xia Xuan, why are you not afraid, why are you?"

When Xia Xuan heard this, he barely opened his eyes, and said in a natural tone: "I'm handsome." ”

With that, he yawned again, rolled over, and moved into a comfortable position.

The autumn wind curtains, and the sun shone on his chic and uninhibited figure.

The fat man looked at this little grandfather, sometimes, he really hoped that when the little grandfather was pretending, a cold arrow could fly from a distance to interrupt the pretending of this goods.
