The door next door was slightly hidden, and before the two of them knocked on the door, Yun Xiao had already opened the door from the inside, she was wrapped in a thick white winter coat, she was pulling up her hat and putting it on her head, staring at Xiao Qianye faintly, and smiled: "Are you leaving?"

"Hmm. Xiao Qianye nodded, and before she could say anything, Yuxu grabbed Yun Xiao from behind and didn't let her go, jumping up and down in a hurry, muttering and complaining, "What! Where are you going to go so late? Stay and rest for the night, it's been cold lately, don't run around outside with him." ”

Yun Xiao giggled and turned around and took Yuxu's hand and comforted: "But we are now equivalent to fugitives, if we don't take advantage of the night to run quickly, do we have to wait for dawn to throw ourselves into the net?"

Yu Xuan pouted, still unwilling to let go, and hurriedly gave Huo Cang a look, Huo Cang helplessly spread his hands, pointed at Xiao Qianye, and persuaded in a good voice: "Miss Yun is not wrong, now they are looking for them everywhere outside, if you want to go deep into the forbidden land, you have to go through Wanyou City and continue to the east, right now, it is not easy to be found by patrolling troops in the middle of the night, by the way, you take out one of my clothes and bring it to the young pavilion master, I am afraid that even the hare on the side of the road can recognize his face." ”

Hearing Huo Cang say this, Yuxu had to reluctantly let go of Yun Xiao, turned around and went back to the house to find clothes, Yun Xiao looked at Huo Cang, bowed to him slightly, and said in a low voice: "Brother Huo, thank you." ”

"Thank you for what I'm doing? Huo Cang waved his hand indifferently, looked at her, and then looked at Xiao Qianye, and said helplessly, "You two are both people who saved my life on the snowfield, now one wants to apologize to me, and the other thanks me, I am not a human being inside and out, I am not ignorant, I don't have anything valuable to give you to defend yourself, just two ordinary winter clothes, don't dislike it." ”

Yun Xiao tightened her collar and hurriedly answered: "Brother Huo is polite, sending charcoal in the snow is much more useful than icing on the cake." ”

"You are from the Central Plains, and I can't tell you anything about it. Huo Cang laughed innocently, Yuxu had already walked out with another winter coat, and she threw it directly into Xiao Qianye's hand, warning her, reminding her one by one, "You have to protect her this time, don't let her go thousands of miles to save you like last time!"

Yuxu let out a cold snort from her nose, didn't look at him much, and took Yun Xiao's hand again, and muttered like an old mother: "Although the problem on your body has been suppressed temporarily, it has not been cured at all, so you still have to be careful all the way, if you feel uncomfortable on the road, come back to me, I will not go anywhere in this bamboo house, and there is still ......"

Huo Cang scratched his head in embarrassment, knowing that the girl was nagging endlessly, so he simply didn't listen to her, turned to look at Xiao Qianye, pulled his hat up for him, and pressed it down hard, after making sure that he could barely cover his eyes, he sighed helplessly.

Frankly speaking, this person's eyes have become extremely unfamiliar, which makes him feel chills in his heart after working with him for many years.

"I remember it all. Yun Xiao was still nodding her head, every time Yuxu said a word, she nodded quickly, until the other party couldn't think of the words of instruction anymore, then she gently put her hand on her lips, looked at her quietly for a long time, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I have memorized every word." ”

Yuxu's eyes turned red instantly, remembering the short time spent together not long ago, seeing that the tears were about to fall uncontrollably, Huo Cang hurriedly pulled her up and pushed her back into the room, he pulled the door hard to prevent her from running out again, and signaled with his eyes: "Let's go, go out to the east gate, there are still three-winged birds patrolling the city as before, you should know the habits of that bird, don't be discovered." ”

"Brother Huo, thank you. Xiao Qianye hugged his fists and bowed to him, Huo Cang pressed the door and couldn't return the salute, so he had to grin, "There is so much less nonsense, if you still have the fate to meet, you have to explain it to me well!"

Xiao Qianye paused for a few seconds, pulled Yun Xiao up directly, and didn't hesitate for a moment: "Go." ”

It was only a quarter of an hour after leaving the bamboo house, and the dark night in front of her was illuminated by a bright white light, Yun Xiao couldn't help but raise her hand to cover it, and it took a long time for her eyes to get used to this light.

"This is the magic enchantment on the outskirts of Wanyou City. Xiao Qianye also stopped, seriously pulled Yun Xiao's hat down again, and patiently explained, "Although the East Ming and Jia Luo border, but after passing Snow City, the temperature will rise all the way, and it will basically be like spring all year round here in Wanyou City, and then it will go deep into the Empty Holy Land and the Valley of Confinement, the climate has become humid and warm, rainy and torrential, so most cities have this kind of magic enchantment guard, and go out of the city to the depths of the forbidden land, which is a gathering place that aliens like." ”

Yun Xiao felt that his eyes were completely blocked by his hat and couldn't see the way, and he held his hand down before he wanted to mention it, Xiao Qianye glanced at the metropolis in front of him, and his tone became more and more rigorous: "Of the four realms, only Jia Luo has not formed a densely populated metropolis because of the harsh climate, and Wanyou City is the largest city in the Eastern Underworld, and one of the only three air legions has been assigned according to the convention." Three-winged bird's patrol, there is not much difference between here and the city that never sleeps, even if it is late at night, the city is also crowded, I will lead you, and I don't want you to look at the road. "Crape myrtle

"It's very insecure not to be able to see the road. Yun Xiao muttered quietly, still stubbornly lifted her hat up, pointed to the dazzling light not far away, and asked curiously, "This enchantment is so bright, isn't the city illuminated as if it were daylight?"

"You can't see this kind of light in the city, and it's deliberately made so bright for outsiders to see. Xiao Qianye couldn't resist her, so he had to take her hand and explain as he walked, "This enchantment is used to prevent natural disasters, and the reason why it is so bright is purely because Dongming is too rich......

"Huh?" Yun Xiao said strangely, puzzled, "Is there any special connection?"

Xiao Qianye was helpless, and he also felt that it was a little ridiculous and generous to say this kind of thing, and sighed: " The terrain of the East Underworld is hilly, and the towns are also built by the mountains and rivers, although they are independent, most of them are very rich, after all, the East Underworld is a place with extremely abundant resources, and the locals are good at doing business, but it is precisely because of the mountain restrictions that the cities here cannot form a huge urban agglomeration like Yangchuan, and it always seems that there is no such majestic atmosphere as others, so when they are repairing the protective barrier, they deliberately make it so bright, and it is called the 'Pearl City'. ”

"This ......" Yun Xiao smiled awkwardly, she didn't expect that there was such a story behind it, Xiao Qianye looked straight ahead, and continued expressionlessly, "And Yangchuan believes in the gods of the sun and the moon, and it is the oldest city except for the imperial capital. If there is a chance to take you around the sky above the East Underworld, you can see that these cities are the same as Wanyou City, shining like a pearl in the night. ”

"Sure enough, the fun of rich people is different. Yun Xiao couldn't help but laugh, Xiao Qianye glanced at her indifferently, and suddenly a person's name popped up in his mind, he couldn't help grinning, and blurted out, "Gongsun Yan's ancestral home is in the East Hell Wanyou City, and their family was the richest man here before moving to the imperial capital. ”

Speaking of that person, Yun Xiao seemed to understand the "Pearl City" in front of her in an instant, and a snickerer appeared on the corner of her lips: "It's not just that people like to fight for high and low, even the city where they live has to fight, where there are people, there is a fight, it seems that this sentence still makes sense." ”

Xiao Qianye just smiled faintly, Shinong Industry and Commerce, although it has been the end of "business" since ancient times, but money can make ghosts grind, and Dongming is undoubtedly the best example.

However, after a while, the two of them had already walked to the city gate, different from the strict defense of the Heavenly Imperial City, the gate of Wanyou City was open, without guards, and even hundreds of bright lanterns were hung high on both sides of the road, and there was a posture that everyone who came was a guest, Yun Xiao felt that she couldn't help but get nervous, but Xiao Qianye calmly led her, walked directly through the city gate without squinting, bypassing the bustling main road, and the two walked together to the auxiliary road around the city.

"No, no one is guarding?" Yun Xiao muttered quietly, speeding up her pace and following him inch by inch, Xiao Qianye nodded, not strange at all, "It is the meaning of the city lord, eighty percent of the residents of Wanyou City are in business, and the population is frequent, and in line with the concept of 'those who come do not refuse', in the early years, they wrote to the imperial capital to ask for the withdrawal of the military pavilion guards, leaving only one three-winged bird in the air, the reason is to make money with harmony, and they are worried that the military pavilion soldiers in the city will scare their guests and affect the business, and the imperial capital has agreed, and this habit has been retained." ”

Yun Xiao listened to the crooked reasoning he said seriously, stared at him suspiciously, as if there was really a little truth, and faintly felt that something was not right, frowned and thought seriously for a while, and finally couldn't help but refute: "There are no guards for frequent population exchanges?

"Huh?" Xiao Qianye thought for a while, and said to himself, "Having said that, there really hasn't been any major incident in Dongming, and it has always been safe and stable, much more harmonious than the other three realms, and the only time was seven years ago, when the imperial capital ordered the extermination of Butterfly Valley." ”

"Really?" Yun Xiao said in surprise, not believing, "How is this possible, the richer the place, the easier it should be targeted, right? ”

"I think it's probably because some of the spells of the Eastern Ming have worked. Xiao Qianye actually couldn't explain this strange result, so he could only tell her everything he knew at will, "Dong Ming is good at two kinds of magic, one is astrology that everyone knows, and the other is the wraith technique, the city lord will pray for the people of the city every month in the planetarium in the center of the city, if the astrology of the month shows that there is a disaster, he will notify the nearby two legions of fire and evil to come over to help, anyway, it's that kind of ...... Don't shed tears if you don't see the coffin, if you have something, you will find the military pavilion, and if you have nothing to do, you will be in the way. ”

Yun Xiao just stared at him, seeing a helpless smile on his face, she suddenly trotted a few steps in front of him, tilted her head and whispered, "Wow...... It's a city where everyone is a businessman, it's too realistic, have you ever been disliked by them?"

Hearing such a question, Xiao Qianye not only didn't get angry at all, but pinched the tip of her nose with relief, and then gently flicked the snow beads on her hat with her hand, and sighed: "Yes, you can see this, they dislike me." ”

Yun Xiao snickered, returned to him and held hands and continued to walk side by side with him, even in a place far away from the main road, Wanyou City was still brightly lit, and at first glance it looked like a commercial street in the imperial capital, and even surpassed it.
