The trees around it are no longer as tall and straight as they were half a day ago, the weeds are more than a man tall everywhere, and from time to time you can encounter a swamp hidden on the ground that is difficult to detect, all of which indicate that this is already the edge of this primeval forest.

The two were still silent, walking slowly in this primeval forest, losing the atmosphere of the group, and these two people, who were originally silent, fell into silence again.

There were a lot of sounds around, the wind passed through the trees, making a sound of the wind, the birds flickered and moved among the trees, chirping, and from time to time there were unknown beasts making weird roars, but Li Xiuyu still felt so quiet, the silence was embarrassing.

In the past, he would never pay attention to this embarrassment, but now, for some reason, between him and Mo Tongsheng, he didn't really want to be so quiet.

He slowly walked a few steps ahead of Mo Tongsheng, and wanted to say something several times, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say after all.

After this cruel and tragic battle, at least these two young people, who were originally strangers, finally had less estrangement and were willing to talk to each other.

It's a pity that two people who don't know how to speak collide together.

The sky did not wait for anyone, and while Li Xiuyu was still hesitating, the night had slowly shrouded this forest.

Li Xiuyu turned his head and finally found a sentence to say: "Senior Sister Mo......"

"Senior Brother Li!" Mo Tongsheng said at the same time.

These two ridiculous people, finally at the same moment, thought of the same sentence.

The embarrassment in the air, like slimy grease, poured all over his body, Li Xiuyu held his breath, waiting for Mo Tongsheng to speak again.

Poof, Mo Tongsheng laughed out loud, she covered her mouth with her right hand, her eyebrows and eyes had already turned into a crescent moon of laughter, she smiled first: "Senior Brother Li, let's camp here to rest, early tomorrow morning, when you are better, we are on our way as soon as possible!"

Li Xiuyu's breathing finally relaxed, what he wanted to say was the same as what Mo Tongsheng said, and he said a little embarrassed: "Yes, yes!"

It's a relatively empty meadow, like a special one for overnight sleepers, surrounded by star-sfew trees, leaving plenty of sight.

Li Xiuyu took out a small pocket from his waist, and when he opened it, there was an unknown thing in the form of powdered particles, which slightly emitted a strange smell.

Mo Tongsheng opened his mouth and asked, "What is this?"

Li Xiuyu scattered the contents of this pocket into a large circle on the ground, and replied: "This is the feces of a mixed variety of powerful monsters, most of the beasts will stay away when they smell it, we will rest in this circle tonight, presumably there will be no beasts to disturb." ”

Mo Tong nodded clearly.

Li Xiuyu skillfully and silently lit a fire, easily broke a few thick branches, wound the strong grass roots caught on the ground, supported them at the most suitable height above the fire, and made a sturdy fire grill, and used a dry and strong branch to intersperse the food he brought with him and put it on the shelf on the bonfire.

Mo Tongsheng stood aside, quietly watching Li Xiuyu finish these things in a very short time, his hands did not stop for a moment, his brows did not wrinkle once, presumably he had done these things countless times.

Mo Tongsheng wanted to help, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only watch quietly from the sidelines.

After only a while, everything was done, Li Xiuyu exhaled a breath of turbidity, and he sat down quietly on the side of the bonfire.

Li Xiuyu looked at the ground opposite, which had already formed a simple futon with clean and dry dry dry grass.

Mo Tongsheng looked at it and couldn't help laughing, she lowered her head and sat down slowly.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Xiuyu asked softly as he turned the food on the fire rack.

Mo Tongsheng still had a smile on his face, like the beautiful celadon lotus flower on flawless porcelain, carefully outlined on the surface, more is too much, less is too little.

You see you're even more skilled at doing these things than you've had overnight snow. Mo Tong said softly.

Perhaps, your life should not only be about cultivation and revenge. Mo Tongsheng didn't wait for Li Xiuyu to speak, and continued.

Li Xiuyu hugged his knees and pondered for a long time, he suddenly said: "If I can't even avenge the killing of my parents, then for me, the rest of my life will have no meaning." ”

Mo Tongsheng didn't speak, she suddenly remembered what Tang Yubo and the three of them said that day in the volcano, when they were generous to death, and Li Xiuyu was in a hurry.

At that time, Mo Tongsheng anxiously patted his back, but Li Xiuyu suddenly turned his head and called her twice: "Mother, mother!"

A person's father and mother are somewhat close and distant in a person's heart, but here in Li Xiuyu, there is no difference, this hard-working person who has lost his parents before he can remember, he has never even seen his parents, let alone be close and estranged.

Mo Tongsheng didn't want to continue, one more word, Li Xiuyu's sadness would be mentioned again, they had become excellent friends, and Mo Tongsheng never wanted his friends to suffer.

So she said, "Can I get closer to you?" ”

Li Xiuyu was stunned, he didn't expect Mo Tongsheng to say such a thing, and in a blink of an eye, he immediately said, "Of course." ”

Mo Tongsheng got up slowly, dragged the futon, and sat closer to Li Xiuyu, and the two sat side by side, quietly looking at the swaying bonfire.

Li Xiuyu gradually became a little distracted, the flickering flames were reflected in his eyes, and the spirit in his pupils had dissipated a lot, he felt very relaxed, at least someone was with him, which made him feel very relieved.

Mo Tongsheng quietly, moved her body, and got closer to Li Xiuyu, she suddenly said: "Aren't you afraid, such gloomy, such a dark night?"

Li Xiuyu finally came back to his senses, the essence light in his pupils focused again, he sighed, and said with a smile: "In my opinion, the night is far safer than the day. ”

Mo Tongsheng never expected him to say this, she asked in surprise, "Why? Aren't you afraid of the dark, aren't you afraid of the gloomy?"

"Yes!" Li Xiuyu smiled again, "It's dark around us, it's very dark, and there may be wild beasts coveting it all around, but it's not just your feeling alone, as long as you are here, you will feel dark and gloomy, and we are just as afraid." ”

Mo Tongsheng then asked, "What about the beast?"

Li Xiuyu said: "Beasts are much easier to deal with than people, they have no tricks, no thoughts, just a bag of beast dung, they don't dare to attack us." ”

Mo Tongsheng couldn't help but nodded, feeling that what he said made a lot of sense, and said with a smile: "In this way, it is really much safer to be at night than during the day." ”

The surroundings were quiet again, and this time, the two of them finally did not feel any confusion, and together, in this boundless dark night, they looked at the flickering and bright flame.

I don't know why, after coming out of the hotel, Liu Xi is no longer in a hurry to get away from the sky, she walks two or three steps in front of Yun Ming unhurriedly, her face is calm and does not eat fireworks, the evil charm and temptation on weekdays have finally disappeared, she is like a confused woman, walking on this ancient road where you can't see the end at a glance.

Yun Ming didn't dare to say a word, only followed not far behind him, a few hours ago, this beautiful stunner beheaded all the people in the hotel into useless people, and now, her head was lowered, her steps were dragging down, as if she had changed someone, Yun Ming didn't know what was wrong.

The sun was about to set, and for a whole afternoon, Liu Xi's footsteps never stopped, which made Yun Ming, who had no true qi and mana, cry bitterly.

Time tends to be long, the huge sun finally reluctantly came to an end, beside the ancient road, the birds perched on the trees, chirping all day, finally quiet, quiet, only the footsteps of two people, on this long and endless ancient road, rustling.

"Do you drink?" Liu Ji stopped suddenly.

Yun Ming was reluctantly following, and suddenly heard these unreasonable words, and was stunned.

Liu Ji turned her head and stared at Yun Ming.

Yun Ming didn't dare to say a word, but he suddenly found that this beauty, who had always been incomprehensible to him, had two lines of tears on his beautiful face.

It is the new tears, along the old tears, the ravines that wash out the white powder on the face.

This woman, who has been walking in front, has been crying!

Yun Ming didn't know what was going on, only Liu Ji herself understood what happened, what words would evoke her memories of the past, and only then would she uncover the scars of her pain.

But he knew that something must have happened in it.

When a person is suddenly hurt, he will cry loudly, and this silent tear stain is the pain of the vicissitudes of the past!

Yun Ming was suddenly less afraid of her, and he said strongly: "I won't drink, but I'm willing to drink two drinks with you." ”

Liu Xi suddenly laughed, laughed out loud, giggled, as bright as a flower, as bright as the sun, in this dark night, illuminated Yun Ming's face.

Yun Ming finally saw clearly that this was a simple, beautiful, and happy girl, once.

When she wants to kill, she looks at flowers in the fog and seems to have an evil smile, but when she is really happy, she has no scruples and grins and laughs.

She is coquettish and seductive, and she is for the dead.

A moment later, Liu Ji and Yun Ming sat in a small tavern with only three tables.

The tavern is a two-story dilapidated small earthen building, located on the side of the ancient road, a dilapidated and gray wine flag, standing dejectedly aside, faintly writing a wine word, on the right side of the tavern, is a dilapidated stable, empty at the moment.

When Yun Ming followed Liu Ji into the tavern, a vicissitudes of life came from behind the counter: "Guest officer, the shop is closed, please come back another day!"

Yun Ming was a little nervous, he was afraid that this moody and not in a good mood woman would kill again when he heard this.

But Liu Xi said softly: "Old man, I'm here!"

Yun Ming only heard a clanging sound behind the counter, and suddenly stood up a man with gray hair, wrinkles and furrows on his face, and a strong body.

The lights in the room were dim, and the old man couldn't see who was coming for a while, he leaned forward with his hand on the counter, his brows furrowed, his eyes narrowed, trying to see if it was the person he was expecting.

The old man finally took a closer look, he didn't come forward immediately, but said loudly and in surprise: "Old woman, look who's coming, come down quickly!"

Liu Xi's beautiful face once again bloomed with flowers, like a beautiful epiphany in this dim night, shocking Yun Ming's soul.

She walked briskly forward, across the counter, and took the old man's hand.

What are you yelling at Yun Ming heard an echo of swearing coming from upstairs, and then. It was the heavy steps of the old man, stepping on the wooden staircase, thumping like a joyful drum to welcome the guests.

What's the matter, Yun Ming has already heard her say several words before she sees this angry and bad-tempered mother-in-law.

"Look, look!" the old man was slightly trembling by Liu Xi's hand, and he looked at the stairs, eagerly hoping that his wife would share her joy with him.

Finally saw clearly, Yun Ming saw that a mother-in-law of the same age as the old man turned out of the staircase, this old mother-in-law with dizzy eyes, rickety body, and gray hair, saw Liu Xi standing in front of the counter at a glance.

Before they saw Liu Xi, every word that the two old men said was full of the blandness and boredom of life, and when they saw Liu Xi, they were equally surprised and ecstatic.

Liu Xi let go of the old man's hand and walked in front of her mother-in-law in a few steps, her mother-in-law's rickety body seemed to be rejuvenated, and she held Liu Xi's hand tightly with her dry and dry hands.

"Girl, how long has it been since you've been here!"

Yun Ming seemed to see Liu Xi's eyes again, as if he had burst into tears.

"Have you eaten?"

"Nope!"

"Don't go cook yet!" said the mother-in-law, turning her head and shouting at the old man.

The old man was obviously still immersed in excitement, and the old woman's voice brought back his spirit, and he said repeatedly: "Okay! Okay, girl, I'll make you your favorite little yellow flower!"

After that, the old man immediately turned around and went to the kitchen, and the old woman finally noticed Yun Ming standing at the door.

The mother-in-law turned her head and said to Liu Xi, "Girl, who is this young master?"

Liu Xi didn't even turn her head, and said with a smile: "What young master, this is a friend of mine, I came back from doing something together, and when I passed by here, I wanted to come over and have a look, so he came with me." ”

After that, Liu Xi helped her mother-in-law to sit at a table closest to the staircase, Yun Ming was somewhat surprised and embarrassed, surprised that Liu Ji, who was moody and murderous without blinking, still had such a side, and the embarrassing thing was that Liu Ji only said a word to him, and he didn't care about him anymore.

Fortunately, the mother-in-law had already seen through it at a glance and said, "Young man, come and sit!"

Yun Ming scratched his head, stiffened his head, sat opposite Liu Xi and his mother-in-law, and said, "Good mother-in-law!"

The mother-in-law smiled slightly, nodded, and turned to talk to Liu Xi.

Yun Ming sat on the side and listened quietly, which made Yun Ming feel a little embarrassed, he had been away from home for more than two years, and he felt such warmth again, in a small tavern in a foreign land.

Without a while, the old man with an apron carried a plate of hot dishes and hot soup and put them in front of several people, all of which were ordinary dishes, but in the hot air, there was the warmth of home.

Time flies, a meal only feels like the second half of the night in the blink of an eye, even Yunming is soaked in this happiness, he doesn't know how to drink, but he frequently raises his glass, and the old man who has a good amount of alcohol, toasts together, Liu Ji is even more drunk with a red face, that beautiful face, with a ripe smile, this is the taste of happiness.

When she laughs, she can show her neat teeth, she can laugh uncontrollably, she can lean forward and backward without any scruples, he is not a lady, but she is more beautiful.

Finally came to the second half of the night, the old man and the old woman had already gone upstairs to rest, and under the dim light, only Yunming and Liuxi, two people who were drowsy and laughing, were drunk.

Yun Ming had already vomited once, but when Liu Xi raised his glass, he didn't want to refuse, this woman with a face full of peach blossoms was even more beautiful and attractive at the moment.

"Who are these two old men?" Yun Ming is already drunk," he asked in a bummer voice.

Liu Xi propped her hands on the table, one hand held her red cheeks, and the messy green silk on her forehead finally couldn't be held behind her ears, blocking Liu Xi's blurred beautiful eyes, but she couldn't stop her drunken smile.

After a while, she shook her head lightly and said with a smile: "If we have the opportunity next time, we can still sit together in this tavern, I will tell you." ”

"Okay!" Yun Ming laughed loudly: "I'll wait for you!"

"Come, drink!" Liu Ji shouted loudly as she raised her glass.

Drink!

......

It was another long night, and beside this quiet and dim ancient road, two young men and women were drunk in a tavern here.

In Liu Xi's heart, there is nothing at this moment, which can compare to this big drunkenness, and when you are drunk, it is easy to forget a lot of sad things, and only remember the happiness in front of you.

She has been drunk countless times, but it has always been a one-person carnival, but tonight, in this quiet night, there is finally someone who can accompany her to get drunk without any scruples.

"I don't know what happened to you before, but I know that you have been hurt, and you have been hurt very badly!" Yun Ming said solemnly after taking a sip of wine.

With a snort, Liu Xi laughed out loud, she raised her heavy head vigorously, and said with a drunken smile: "How old are you, do you know what it means to be sad?"

"Hahaha, I don't know, just because I don't know, let's have another drink!" Yun Ming laughed dryly.

"One more drink!"

People who want to drink, no matter how far-fetched, can find a reason to drink.

Liu Ji raised the wine glass to her lips, smiled, tilted her head sharply, and poured the wine in the glass.

In the eye, there was a tear.

Like a wild beast, trampling, rolling, and ravaging in Liu Xi's heart full of scars.

Yun Ming saw Liu Xi's tears, but she didn't ask anything, she just wanted to get drunk, but she didn't want to say anything.

He looked at Liu Xi, and after a while, he spoke: "I believe that I must be one of the few people who have seen you really cry and laugh."

Liu Xi's heavy head finally couldn't support it, pressed on the two white arms, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
