Walking along this road, a ruined wall appeared at the end of the sight, the bricks and stones were still piled up in the corners of the wall, and the only remaining half of the staircase was also in tatters, and it seemed that it would collapse again at any moment.

Xiao Qianye pulled Yun Xiao, her eyes flashed brightly, and even the gloom on her face dissipated, and she raised her hand to the city wall: "It used to be the north gate of the inner city, also known as the beacon gate, and I have to pass through it every time I come back." ”

As he spoke, he had already stepped on the steps, and the precarious stairs were obviously a little shaken, but he smiled and stretched out his hand to the woman next to him indifferently: "Come, come up." ”

Yun Xiao looked up at him, for the first time she felt that there was such a bright light in that person's eyes, so she couldn't take her eyes off, and subconsciously handed her hand to him, Xiao Qianye used a slight force, directly took her up the steps, and then walked towards the city tower further above.

There were no guards on the city walls anymore, and until the top, the ruined towers were covered with dust, but the sight became empty and clear.

"Wow......" Yun Xiao exhaled in a low voice, stunned by the scenery in front of her, and strode forward a few steps, her eyes revealing admiration.

Looking out of the city from the Beacon Gate, a wide white marble avenue stretches straight into the distance, reflecting the bright sunlight like a glittering ribbon, along both sides of this road, is made of gold and silver to make a delicate dragon statue of a candle, the dragon's eye is embellished with a huge night pearl, and the dragon's mouth is open to hold a candlestick with a black stone.

Xiao Qianye also stepped forward, pursed his lips and said nothing, this is the main road for the three armies to enter the city, remembering the glorious achievements and history of this dynasty.

He sighed, as if talking to himself, and the corners of his mouth raised a proud arc: "To the south of this road is the previous temple, and to the north is the gate of the outer city, called the beacon tower." ”

"It's spectacular. Yun Xiao also sighed, imagining the picture of the triumph of the three armies in her mind, the heroic soldiers stepped into the outer city with majestic steps, the dragon with candles lit the beacon fire, and the people welcomed on both sides, like a gorgeous feast.

Yun Xiao suddenly looked back at Xiao Qianye, he was full of vigorous smile, and he had been looking into the distance, this should be the dream that every teenager yearns for in his heart, the road in front of him will lead to glory, and the light and the future are already close at hand.

She clenched her hands silently, feeling that the people around her finally trembled, and the bright light in her eyes finally disappeared a little bit, Xiao Qianye lowered her head, turned to Yun Xiao with a complicated expression, and said lightly: "The emperor has a ban and does not allow any birds to enter the city, and Tianzheng Bird is no exception, so every time I come back, I must first change horses in the beacon tower, this road is very long, but I always feel that I go very fast, and I always walk to the inner city without paying attention." ”

He couldn't help laughing, as if he was still immersed in the memories of the past and couldn't extricate himself, and finally raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Shall I take you away once?"

"Take me?" Yun Xiao blurted out in surprise, but she couldn't help but be excited in her voice, she was a girl, and she was a disciple of Kunlun Mountain Immortal Cultivator, she would never have such an opportunity in her life to set foot on this glorious road!

The book often talks about "women don't let their eyebrows have", for her, it is only a picture in a dream.

"Come on. Xiao Qianye pulled her across the guardrail, Yun Xiao followed carefully, feeling that her heart was about to jump out of her throat, she looked down, the city wall of the inner city was close to twenty meters, and there was already an obvious huge crack at this time, the wind was blowing from the side, Yun Xiao secretly tightened his sleeve, and there was some inexplicable fear in her heart, even if she was used to flying high in the sky with the sword spirit, she was still a little nervous standing on the high wall.

Xiao Qianye looked at her fixedly, and couldn't help laughing: "Are you afraid of heights?"

Yun Xiao's cheeks flushed, and she quibbled: "I'...... I'm not afraid of heights!"

"Hold me tight. He pulled her into his arms with his hands and feet, his back to the wall.

"You...... What are you going to do?" Yun Xiao was obviously not as calm as him, her eyes overflowed with fear, and her fingers tightened tighter and tighter.

Xiao Qianye didn't speak, took a gentle breath, then wrapped one hand around her waist, the other held her head, leaned back and fell down like a kite with a broken string, and jumped directly from the twenty-meter-high city wall holding her!

Without waiting for her scream to blurt out again, in the blink of an eye, the Likong Sword had already taken off and was about a meter away from the ground, Xiao Qianye held her and landed directly on the sword spirit, and then jumped down from it, stretched out her hand with a smile, and leaned over slightly to make a "please" gesture.

"You, you deliberately scared me!" Yun Xiao's expression was obviously frightened, and he forgot to catch his hand for a while, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and he felt a little embarrassed, his eyebrows rolled, and he scolded in a low voice, "You did it on purpose!"

Xiao Qianye didn't admit that she was wrong, she just kept looking at her and blurted out: "Now I know that I'm afraid, why didn't you see you scared when you chased me off the cliff?"

Yun Xiao glared at him viciously, and couldn't find the words to refute for a while, and said angrily: "I...... I shouldn't have saved you! ”

Before the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled tacitly, and Yun Xiao took his hand and jumped to the ground from the sword spirit.

Looking at this white marble avenue closely, it turns out that the upper layer is also paved with a layer of fine crushed crystal, which seems to be able to refract the sunlight and emit colorful colors.

The surroundings are very quiet, the people's residential areas are isolated far away, Xiao Qianye pointed to the north: "If it is used, it will take about half a day from the beacon tower to the beacon gate, so the soldiers of the three armies will generally choose to enter the city at noon, so that when they are close to the beacon gate, they can just catch up with the dusk, the sun at that hour will reflect a dazzling golden light on the ground, and the dragons with candles on both sides will also light the beacon fire at the same time, and the saint will personally greet him at the city gate, and then hold the annual banquet of the three armies in the Wanluo Hall in the inner city." ”

He paused, thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "But I haven't walked that long, the beacon tower will prepare war horses for the returning generals, and the horses' hooves are equipped with special shoes made by the ordnance department, and they will run to the inner city in about half an hour." ”

He turned around and looked into the distance, but he couldn't help but clench the sword spirit in his hand, and subconsciously blurted out, but he was a little lost: "I have never walked this road with my feet, I need to enter the city in advance to see the driver, at the annual banquet of the three armies, the high-level generals must be on the holy platform in the middle level, in fact, I really want to walk this road with them, and celebrate with them in the Wanluo Palace, but it's a pity...... I can't do that. ”

Yun Xiao walked around in front of him, pointed to the place where his eyes had been looking, and stretched out his hand with a smile: "So I'm the first person who is about to accompany you on this road?"

"Heh......" Xiao Qianye was amused by her, but sighed silently in her heart, "Flamboyant, I don't know who I learned from." ”

"Hurry up, but you'll have to go far. Yun Xiao just smiled and urged.

The two walked forward side by side, Yun Xiao looked around for a moment, as if she had a new idea, opened her left hand, and gently drew a spiritual spell on the palm of her hand.

"Ah Xiao?" Xiao Qianye looked at her puzzled, only to see her make a mysterious gesture of booing, and then shook her hand, something like a firefly flew out of her palm, and along the candle dragons on both sides, the candlesticks in her mouth lit a beacon fire.

The beacon fire lit up along the road, and the sharp flames jumped upward, as if injecting warmth and hope into this cold avenue, and with a soft "crackling" sound, the night pearl turned, revealing a mysterious aura from the center little by little.

Yun Xiao didn't seem to be satisfied, raised her hand and repeated it again, this time the firelight shot straight into the sky and quickly disappeared.

"You, what are you doing?" Xiao Qianye was startled, and his instinctive vigilance made him look around in an instant, and said in a low voice, "You can't light a beacon fire, it's against the order......

"What others can't see, this is an illusion that I have created for you alone. Yun Xiao hurriedly waved her hand, a pair of big eyes were confident of bright light, and then the spiritual magic in the palm changed again, the original boundless blue sky suddenly converged the color, became no longer dazzling, the light suddenly became gentle, the sunset at dusk stretched for thousands of miles, and the tranquil sunlight poured down from the clouds, like warm flowing water sprinkled all over the white marble avenue under the feet.

Xiao Qianye was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily lowered his head, the road under his feet shone brightly, just like the bright future he once thought.

The serenity and comfort of this moment was something he had never felt in his life, and all the sounds disappeared from his ears, leaving only the gorgeous dusk, the blazing beacon fire, and the woman in white clothes like snow and smiling like flowers in front of him.

If it was a dream, he wished it had never woken up.

Xiao Qianye held the sword spirit, but his eyebrows frowned - the time of the Heavenly Realm stopped, and the twelve gods at the beginning of the creation of the Heavenly Realm were just to retain the beauty of a certain moment?

Yun Xiao blinked, laughed, and stretched out her hand to put it on his shoulder: "Beacon Opera Princes...... Do you know, in the history of the Central Plains, there was an emperor who lit the beacon in order to win the favor of beauties, teasing the princes to come to the rescue, and sure enough, the cold beauty smiled, do you say that I am a little similar to him, but why don't you laugh?"

She stared at his expression with ill intentions, and sure enough, when she saw the expected embarrassment, she couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering, Xiao Qianye glared at her, and scolded angrily: "You are talking about these crooked ways again, King Zhou You is a faint king, he doesn't want to save the country from danger, but reuses his ministers, exploits the people, plays the princes, and loses the world with a smile, how can you compare him to yourself!

Yun Xiao opened her mouth, she didn't expect this person to reply to herself so seriously, she was dumbfounded and reprimanded by him, and quibbled: "Okay, good, I don't compare myself to King Zhou You, but my praise beauty, can you laugh at one?"

"You!" Xiao Qianye was speechless, and couldn't help but quickly turn her head, not daring to look at her.

Yun Xiao leaned over satisfied, and when she saw Xiao Qianye like this, she gradually breathed a sigh of relief in her heart - he had been silently under tremendous pressure, even if it was just in such an illusion, if he could relax for a while, he would do his best.
