After walking with He Yanluo for about half an hour, a three-story small building that looked different from the structure of the surrounding houses appeared in front of Ding Yixi. The house on the side of this small building is a little short, and relatively simple, only this one is a dark gold tile for the wall, and the micro blue glass is the door, which has a bit of a modern atmosphere, and above the main entrance are four big characters in italics - "Forest of Changling".

"This is where I work, and you want to stay here?" He Yanluo pointed to the plaque and looked back.

Ding Yixi looked at this posture, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "No problem, it seems to be the best place to stay that I asked before!"

He Yanluo smiled: "That's fine, fortunately, I can help you, then I'll go to the kitchen first." ”

"Wait, I'm not going to explain if you're scolded······"

He Yanluo was slightly stunned at first, and then gently covered his cheek with his left hand, looking like he couldn't help laughing: "Thank you for your concern, there is no problem in the kitchen, if you really need to come, I will not be too late to find you." ”

Ding Yixi looked at He Yanluo's face and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, turned his head and said, "Okay, then I'll go to the front desk to register myself." ”

He Yanluo bowed down to say goodbye, Ding Yixi couldn't help but blush slightly when he looked at He Yanluo, after all, He Yanluo is the girl who talks to him the most at present, even if He Yanluo's behavior is a little strange and too old-fashioned, but he also looks a little elegant and dignified.

But fortunately, I found a place to live, and I don't have to sleep on the streets or live in hotels that are similar to the streets, and I don't know why I feel quite emotional, but before I sigh, my stomach suddenly "hissed".

"Sure enough, street food can't solve the problem of food and clothing······" Ding Yixi touched his stomach and walked into the Forest of Changling.

Entering the store, the inside is more magnificent than the outside, the whole hall is full of gold lacquer long tables, under the red stool, the surrounding wall is full of calligraphy and painting reliefs, it looks very atmospheric, and at the end is a staircase, presumably it should lead to the upstairs accommodation.

However, unlike this momentum, there were not many customers in the entire hall, only a few merchants or mages who did not seem to be dressed locally, and it seemed that this shop was for some wealthy people, and ordinary people were not qualified to enter.

At this time, the counter owner on the side seemed to be inspecting the work, and when he saw that Ding Yixi's clothes were worth a lot of money, he hurriedly trotted over, rubbed his hands together, and said: "This brother wants to eat something, it's getting late, this is the best hotel in the city, it's better to stay here for one night." ”

Ding Yixi looked at the boss with a kind and treacherous look, so he had to respond with a smile, "That's exactly what I think, then prepare a better room, and then order a dish, my stomach is so hungry that I scream out, don't worry about the price or anything, just the best." ”

"Oh~ Don't worry, the rooms here are extremely comfortable, and the food is even more delicious!" The boss hurriedly signaled to the waitress on the counter behind him, turned around and said, "Then you find a place to sit down first, and someone will go to your place to help you order later." ”

"Okay~" Ding Yixi walked towards the hall, the light around him was shining, but it was a little dazzling, he had lived in a dim place for a long time, but he was not very suitable for this kind of magnificent decoration. So I looked around and found a place with a little dim light to sit down, and there were only one or two people around, so I could calm down and enjoy the food.

Ding Yixi just sat down, suddenly his heart froze, his heartbeat suddenly became turbulent, his body was burning, as if there was a fire, it was much lighter than after the previous battle in the bookstore, Ding Yixi pressed his heart, controlled his breathing, and sure enough, after a few seconds, it eased up, and the hand that was about to reach out to the backpack to get the medicine also retracted.

"Is this a sequelae of the last time the bookstore used a lot of spiritual power? I haven't done this before, and it's definitely not a good thing if it's always like this. Ding Yixi eased up and thought lightly.

Ding Yixi looked up at the roof, and began to think about the next step in his heart: "He Yanluo also seemed to have mentioned that she was going to Duwu City just now, then she should know more about this martial law than me, after all, she should have been staying here for a long time, and then ask again, if it really doesn't work, spend some money, maybe you can find a breakthrough to enter Duwu City!"

Ding Yixi made a calculation in his heart, leaned his head back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes slightly, and prepared to breathe for a moment.

At this moment, a slightly stiff man's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Who are you?"

Ding Yixi was excited, his eyes opened, he sat up straight, and looked around, there was no one who was particularly close to him, but the voice just now seemed to be next to him.

But if you look closely, in the two seats on your left, a man dressed in a very formal black and white outfit, who looks to be about the same age as himself, holds a teacup in one hand and looks at him with squinted eyes, as if there is a deep meaning. And the man had a brown round artifact with a handle hanging from his waist, and if you think about it, it is exactly what the teacher said in class is a device called a "loop" that is carried by a professional elemental mage to facilitate spell casting.

In this way, this person should be a professional elemental mage.

But at this time, Ding Yixi was more concerned about the sentence just now, Ding Yixi and the young man looked at each other for a few seconds, then pointed at himself with his right hand, the man nodded slightly, put down the teacup, and put his hand on the waist loop.

"Wait, wait, what do you mean!" Ding Yixi moved to the side.

The man's eyes were even more serious, his mouth moved slightly, but his voice echoed in his ears: "Answer me, who are you!"

Ding Yixi frowned, and then remembered that this should be the so-called sound transmission technique. Looking at this person's outfit, isn't he a master mage?

"I'm human, are you satisfied?"

"Don't blame me for talking nonsense, you're welcome!"

"Even if it's the first time for me to talk nonsense, it can't be regarded as 'again'!" Ding Yixi raised his forehead and shook his head: "Then who do you say I am?" You said that if you ask me, you can talk well, don't be as good as taking gunpowder." ”

The man was silent for a moment, and then said indifferently, "You are—a demon." ”

Hearing this, Ding Yixi gritted his teeth angrily, looked at the surroundings and others were still sitting quietly as usual, and then came back and looked at the young man with disdain, but he heard the young man's voice still the same: "I use the method of sound transmission, others can't hear it, otherwise if you, the demon, go wild, wouldn't it ······?"

"Enough!" Ding Yixi slapped the table angrily, stood up, and led the people around him to look here, "Are you bored with idleness?

When the mage saw this scene, he didn't mess up, but since he had already opened his mouth, he also stood up: "I am Cheng Xiwu, a disciple of the Guardian of the Parallel Gate of the First Academy of Dusk Martial City, Cheng Xiwu, fortunately, my innate spiritual sense surpasses ordinary people, even if you cover it up perfectly, I can recognize it, so don't pretend anymore!"

"Oh, my mother, do you think you can do evil if you are from the First Academy of Duwu City?"

"Don't talk nonsense, what are you doing, you ······"

Ding Yixi raised his hand to signal a pause, and spread his hands out: "I won't say anything, anyway, you must be mistaken, I don't know what Lingjue means, but I'm sure you are wrong this time!"

"Wrong or bad, let me take you to Duwu City to ask for guilt!"

Ding Yixi stepped on the seat with one foot and said loudly: "Hmph, it just so happens that I am also going to the First Academy of Duwu City, isn't it just ······?" But halfway through the words, it suddenly occurred to me that my father was a hero-level character, and if he was taken to the First Academy of Dusk City as a demon to ask for guilt, even if he had no problems, it would be a shame for this matter to spread out.

Cheng Xiwu heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly: "It turns out that you still want to sneak into the First Academy of Duwu City, I said that martial law in the city has been imposed in the past few days, and all the student elders and representatives of mages from various countries are going to hold a meeting here, it must be to prevent you, and you will be unlucky if you are caught by me!"

Ding Yixi heard this, completely convinced this guy, made a "snap" on the stool, supported his head with both hands, and said slowly: "Then you say, why do you think I'm a demon, I always have to be reasonable, don't you?"

At this time, the people around him have begun to chatter, and the orderers who are just about to come over have also regressed.

Cheng Xiwu faintly flashed blue light on his fingers, and said, "You hid it very well when you came in just now, but after you sat down, it seemed that you had slackened off and suppressed, and sure enough, some of the demonic qi leaked out, am I right?"

"Demonic energy?" Ding Yixi thought about it, it was true that there was a slight abnormality in his body after he sat down just now, but when he was a child, his father and teacher had already diagnosed and treated him, this is a disease of spiritual power diffusion, this guy must have never seen this kind of disease, so he will have a misunderstanding. Thinking of this, Ding Yixi smiled, waved his hand and said: "That's your fault, this is a disease I suffered from when I was a child, it is definitely not a demonic qi, if you don't believe me, you can go home and bring you my diagnosis certificate in the future, you can take a look······"

"Illness ······" The man sneered, "You can fool others, but you can't fool me, disguise your magic power as a disease and the like are all tricks that the demons used to be tired of, it may be useful to deal with ordinary mages, but I am afraid that it is too small to deal with the elites of Dusk City." ”

Hearing this, Ding Yixi gritted his teeth angrily: "Okay, well, since you want to take me down so much, it depends on whether you have the ability to do it!"

The man nodded, had already taken off the circuit around his waist, and said, "Everyone, pay attention, this demon has already condensed, and its ferocity has been revealed, evacuate quickly!"

Hearing this, the people around him began to talk about it, while avoiding Ding Yixi and walking towards the door, Ding Yixi was embarrassed and indignant when he saw this situation, he didn't think much about it in his heart, and slapped his palm at the man: "Hey-you are really hateful!

"I finally can't hold it anymore!" Cheng Xiwu suddenly appeared on the circuit in his hand, and a shield flickered faintly in front of him!

The strong wind was blowing near the left, the tables and chairs were blown around, and the dishes on the table fell to the ground, making a cracking and mournful sound!

Seeing that the two of them are about to meet!

"What are you doing here!!" Hearing a broken voice and shouting angrily, the two of them were stunned, stopped and looked at the voice, but it was the boss's angry green muscles that burst out, and he stomped his feet and scolded: "You mages, do you want to fight if you don't agree with each other, and they are really a bunch of people with no culture!"

Cheng Xiwu's face turned red when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Boss, it's not that I'm picking quarrels and provoking trouble, it's because of this demon ······"

"I don't care if you're a demon or a fairy elf, hey, my thousands of dollars of dishes, tables and chairs have all been bumped into this virtue, I'm going to the First Academy of Duwu City to sue you!"

"Ahh

When Cheng Xiwu and the boss were talking, Ding Yixi realized that he was too reckless, if he really accidentally injured others or was discovered by others, wouldn't he be in an even more embarrassing situation! So he quickly jumped down from the table, covered his face with his hands, and said: "Hmph, that's it, you people who claim to be righteous people have nothing to do except attack us ordinary people every day!"

The boss turned around and pointed at Ding Yixi who was also angry: "You kid can't escape the matter! Aren't these plates all rolled to the ground!?"

"Uh······" Ding Yixi felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and he was about to be set up as a model by this boss, so he hurriedly looked left and right and said to him: "Oh, I think of an important thing, I'll go first!"

So Ding Yixi rushed to the door with an arrow step, but the figure flashed, but it bumped into the body of a person who had just come in, and he looked at He Yanluo.

"Ah, young man, you're—"

Ding Yixi looked back and said hurriedly: "Xiaoluo, I'm in a hurry to leave in advance, and I'll tell you carefully when I have time!"

"Little ······ Xiaoluo?"

He Yanluo heard this, and before he could continue to ask, he saw that Ding Yixi had already rushed out of the hotel with an arrow, and behind him, Cheng Xiwu raised the loop magic circle in his hand again, shouting: "Stop——"

"Don't run!" At this time, the boss stopped in front of Cheng Xiwu, grabbed Cheng Xiwu's sleeve, pointed to his nose and said: "You can't run one and the other, lose money, otherwise I will go to Duwu City······ ！”

Cheng Xiwu clenched his fists, but for the sake of the teacher's face, he nodded and said, "Okay-okay······"

However, this scene was seen by He Yanluo, looking at the blue magic circle rising in Cheng Xiwu's hand, He Yanluo's eyes became sharp.

"The First Academy of Dusk City?"

He Yanluo looked at the door meaningfully again: "Since Yixi Shaoxia will have a holiday with this person, there is no connection between these two people." He Yanluo touched the long sword on his back and whispered, "It seems that I have finally found a clue." ”

By this time, the sun had set, and the city was brightly lit, especially in the slums, where even if there was no electrical support, the bonfires alone were dotted as if it were day.

"Phew, I don't know if that guy caught up with ······" Ding Yixi stretched his head out of the alley, looked left and right, and saw that no one seemed to be chasing, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fang Cai's bunch of things were really sudden, and now he really became a posture of sleeping on the streets, but I was afraid that if the person came out to look for it just now, he would definitely search along the hotels, and if he found a place to stay, he would definitely be found. But if you don't have a place to live, it's miserable, and you've never slept on the streets. However, there is another thing that makes Ding Yixi very worried, this person is a person from the First Academy of Duwu City, and it seems that he is quite famous, if he meets him in the First Academy of Duwu City later, wouldn't it be a headache to bring up the old things again.

Ding Yixi looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's really a disadvantage to be a teacher!"

"Hmph, indeed, it's my good plan to disturb you!"

This indifferent and familiar voice came from behind Ding Yixi, Ding Yixi was startled, turned back, only to see the blue light cold, shooting straight towards himself, Ding Yixi hurriedly got up, the red light suddenly gathered in front of him, forming a barrier, the blue halo was connected with the red light in the next moment, and the surrounding area was suddenly dusty, Ding Yixi was in a hurry, this shield of resistance was not very complete, and it broke instantly, but taking advantage of this gap Ding Yixi had already taken four or five steps back, barely dodging this sudden blow.

"Huh, amazing, it can be formed in an instant, could it be that you also have a circuit?" At this time, Ding Yixi saw clearly that the person who came was the nonsense Cheng Xiwu, and when he saw Ding Yixi's crimson shield condensed in an instant, he sighed first.

"Phew, you despicable villain, you actually sneak attack and plot!" Ding Yixi's body was stable, his hands were gathered in front of him, and a light appeared in his hands, "What way back, I want to know how you found me!"

"Didn't I tell you? No demon can escape my senses. ”

"Psychic? It's this psychic again, what the hell is this? ”

Hearing this, Cheng Xiwu's eyes lit up, and he seemed to be a little proud and said: "This spiritual sense is an ability to detect the spiritual power around me, ordinary people are generally unable to detect the flow of spiritual power, but I am different, not only can I feel the flow of large and small spiritual power around me, but also can distinguish the different spiritual power of each person······"

"I probably understand what it means, but ······" Ding Yixi shook his head, "You are really boring, I am really not a demon, if I am a demon, what am I going to do in this lair of the mage in Dusk Martial City!"

"How do I know that you demons are thinking nonsense, wasn't it your ghost who made trouble in the rebellion of the Peace Gate back then!" Cheng Xiwu returned to the magic circle again, "But since I know that you intend to be in the twilight martial arts, I need to take you down and ask carefully." ”

"It's useless for you to ask me, I'······ I'm just an ordinary student going to the First Academy of Duwu City!"

"Student? hahaha-" Cheng Xiwu actually laughed out loud when he heard this: "You are so stupid, you are using such a worthless excuse, now is neither the time to recruit students, nor the time for returnees to return to school, you still dare to pretend to be from my college?"

Although Ding Yixi didn't want to reveal his identity so early, he really had no choice, so he put away the spiritual power in his hand: "If you don't believe it, I'll show you something." After that, Ding Yixi took out the PH of the First Academy of Dusk Wu City from his bag and lit it up towards Cheng Xiwu, and Cheng Xiwu's eyes followed his hand, as if he was startled, but the magic circle in his hand was not lifted.

"It's like ······ You open the PH and show it to me. ”

"Okay, you can look at it however you want!" Ding Yixi pressed the press on the PH, and the screen lit up, showing three options on it, the first is identity confirmation, the second is the address of the college, and the third is the resume information, but obviously the resume information is in an encrypted state and cannot be clicked. Ding Yixi thought for a moment, clicked on his identity with his finger to confirm, and his student certificate was presented on the screen.

At this time, Cheng Xiwu's face was slightly embarrassed, looking at the various anti-counterfeiting signs on the screen, and then looking at the photos on the PH and Ding Yixi's face, the light of the magic circle in his hand gradually went out.

"You······ Really a student?"

"That's right. ”

"Haven't reported yet?"

"Hmm. ”

"What the hell. Cheng Xiwu covered his eyes, as if he was very sorry, "You guy is really weird, how can there be demonic energy on your body, but now it has really become very thin, could it really be that I am mistaken?"

"Gee, I'm the hell. Now that you've seen it, what else do you want, don't you really want to put the trumped-up charges on my head?" Ding Yixi saw that Cheng Xiwu had already confessed, so he could rightly point to his nose and pretend to accuse him indignantly.

"Okay, I'll take a look. Cheng Xiwu wanted to take the PH from Ding Yixi's hand and take a closer look, but he was still muttering to himself, "This kind of student ID belongs to the relatively high-end kind, it seems that you are not an ordinary student ······"

Ding Yixi hurriedly turned off the PH in his hand and put it in his bag, looking at Cheng Xiwu's appearance, he didn't seem to know his identity, but if he let him see it clearly and know the identity of his holy son, maybe something would go wrong.

"I just saw about ······ Your name is Ding Yixi?"

"Ah, did you see it?" Ding Yixi's nerves tightened, and his heart said that although the fact that he was the Holy Son was a state secret, since he was a member of the First Academy of Duwu City, what if he knew his identity······

But just now I had this thought, and I was relieved when I looked at Cheng Xiwu's unfluctuating face.

At this time, Cheng Xiwu held his chin and said, "Well, but it's already a fact that you have demonic energy on your body, even if you are really not a demon, you must be implicated, and it is better for me to follow you." ”

"Ah, what kind of logic are you?" Ding Yixi slapped his thigh, "It's all this time, you're still talking nonsense!"

"You don't have to say it. This time, Cheng Xiwu sighed, "It's really unlucky these days, first because of the turmoil of the surrounding demon beasts and separated from my senior brother, and because of the damage to my PH, I can't contact them, plus Duwu City began martial law, fortunately, when the senior brother left, he said that I didn't have any important tasks, let me go around······"

"Demon beast turmoil, what's the situation?" Hearing this kind of word that can only be heard in novels, Ding Yixi became interested.

"You-forget it, since you are a student who is going to join our academy, it is okay to tell you, that is to say, some demon beasts have suddenly appeared near the academy in the past few days, the reason is unknown, and the Eternal Night Organization, which has been at odds with Shuangfan and Saiqi Continent since ancient times, has also issued a statement that it wants to seize an important thing from us, and the various spell associations are preparing to meet here to discuss, so we will split up to protect it. ”

Ding Yixi scratched his head and said: "Well, the Eternal Night Organization has heard that the magic organization established in the Night Continent in ancient times, I heard that the Battle of the Parallel Gate a long time ago was caused by the Eternal Night Organization's then leader Su Yue leading the demonic beasts to invade the Parallel Gate, and at that time, the Parallel Gate was breached, and only one of the seven guardians survived······" Speaking of this, Ding Yixi couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he only recently learned that the big hero who lived to the end was actually his father.

"Yes, as for the current turmoil, I don't know, although I am in a high position among the students of the academy, I still can't get access to the specific content. But to be honest, as a mage, it is your duty to slay demons and eliminate demons, and do your part well. ”

"You're in a higher rank, so why don't you even have a little brother, and you look ······?" Ding Yixi looked at Cheng Xiwu, "It's not very big." ”

Cheng Xiwu seemed to poke at the sore spot when he heard this, and coughed lightly: "I don't know how to have a relationship with my junior brother and brother······ However, in the first place, mages fought for justice, and they didn't need these social things. ”

"Oh, so when you came out to make rounds, they all followed other people. ”

"I'm going to go out alone. Cheng Xiwu straightened his clothes, "Sometimes it's easier to control the rhythm of solo action. ”

And then they took me under control. Ding Yixi spread his hands and looked at Cheng Xiwu with pity, Cheng Xiwu didn't speak, just tidying up his clothes, it seemed that it took a lot of effort to catch up with him just now.

"Then you can contact them with my PH, and find me a good place to rest. ”

"Our PH is dedicated to communication, and we can't connect to external lines, otherwise I would have contacted them a long time ago. No, even if there is no PH action, there is no problem. ”

Ding Yixi shook his head, seeing that this guy usually doesn't have much contact with others, so others have nothing to do to contact him.

"Okay, okay······" Ding Yixi looked at the sky, pointed to the intersection and said, "Anyway, I'm looking for a place to stay, so don't leave it at that." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Accommodation, what's wrong?"

"Don't forget your breath······"

Ding Yixi was so angry when he heard this, he jumped up: "You are really unreasonable, don't you say that I am not ······"

"After all, there are demons who rob and kill the students who are about to report, and then disguise themselves as students······"

"Stop-" Ding Yixi stretched out his hand to stop and mourned: "Big brother, I have served you, my thinking is really wild, what do you want!"

"Staying with you. ”

"Brother Cheng, I don't have this fetish. ”

"What fetish?" Cheng Xiwu looked very serious. Ding Yixi sighed, and had to say, "I didn't expect that I, Ding Yixi, would be straight for half my life, and I would have to bend ······ in the end."

Cheng Xiwu thought about Ding Yixi's words, but he still had a blank expression, so he took the initiative to say: "Okay, then let's find a hotel in this city to stay." ”

"We can't live in that high-end one. ”

"It doesn't matter, there are a lot of small inns in the city. ”

"The accommodation conditions are too bad!" Ding Yixi waved his hand in disgust, Cheng Xiwu frowned, "Why is it so bad, don't you just need a bed?"

Ding Yixi stretched out his finger and said eloquently: "You must know that having a comfortable and sufficient sleep, refreshing and harmonious environment is the foundation of life and work!"

Cheng Xiwu nodded, then shook his head and said, "I think that as long as you fall asleep under any circumstances, it is very sufficient." ”

"You're too dirty, and you're not short of money, anyway, I don't want to go anywhere else except the best one. Ding Yixi's body couldn't help but tremble when he thought of what cockroach rats.

Cheng Xiwu shook his head: "In this case, there is another option, that is, there is a transportation transfer station about four or five kilometers away from this city, and there is a hotel there with specifications similar to Fang Cai's, but you need to go out of the city." ”

"It's no problem, even if it's a little farther away, as long as I live well, I'll be satisfied!" Ding Yixi hurriedly patted Cheng Xiwu on the shoulder, "You are quite clear about the geographical conditions around here!"

"I've been very peaceful since I came to the First Academy of Duwu City, and I rarely come out on weekdays, and the reason why I know about that hotel is because I have stayed there with my brothers before, but the price is really ······."

Ding Yixi patted his chest and said very refreshingly: "Hehe, then you can just get naked with me, as long as you don't say that I am a demon in the future!"

Cheng Xiwu shook his head and said, "You don't need to invite me for the accommodation fee, and you have already confirmed that you are a junior student of Duwu City, and I, as a senior brother, should not be too suspicious of you, the reason why I followed you is just that I don't worry about the demonic qi on you." ”

"Forget it, what do you like to think, I think you can't contact your brother because of a PH failure, and you feel lonely alone!"

"You-"

"Lead the way~" Ding Yixi pushed Cheng Xiwu forward, although Cheng Xiwu was still very messy in his heart, but seeing that Ding Yixi didn't look like a person with a city in his chest, he was a little less vigilant, so he shook his head and smiled bitterly and walked in front.

In the shadow behind him, a slender female figure slowly walked out, and by the lights of the market, she could vaguely see a beautiful green dress and a short skirt, carrying a long sword, it was He Yanluo, I saw He Yanluo look thoughtful, touched the small bag on his waist, and there seemed to be some cash in it.

"I don't know if this money is enough, but it's better to follow up and take a look at the rare clues. After that, He Yanluo's figure flashed and followed the figures of the two people.
