Chapter 71 Ancient City of Xu ([-])
The two looked at the window at the same time, the sunset was dusk.

At the same time, in an unnoticed corner, a piece of ground collapsed and healed again after a few seconds.

The streets in the middle of the night are surprisingly quiet, but when Xu first entered, the doors and windows of every household were closed, and it was too early to say that this was a curfew.

Even at night, the temperature in the ancient city of Xu was almost the same as during the day. The two of them walked on the lonely street, with candlelight through the window, and the figures were as usual.

Across the alleys, squares, bell towers, and government offices, I still can't find anything strange in the city. It seems that it is really just the residents of the ancient city of Xu who are used to going to bed early.

In such a comfortable environment, it is hard to imagine that it is the source of the purple fire resentment lamp, Yan Qingqiu couldn't help but doubt: "Mr. Xing, could it be that the Mercy Station made a mistake, or that the lamp I picked up was not made in Mercy Terrace."

The man was still looking at the surroundings, his clean and fair face showed a sharp-edged indifference; his dark and deep eyes glowed with a charming color; No longer flaunting nobility and elegance.

"will not"

Hearing Shuguang Xingjun's simple and short words, Yan Qingqiu had no choice but to ask.After walking a few steps, he seemed to feel that his words just now were not appropriate,
He said again: "If it wasn't from the Mercy Terrace, how could we have been sent here through the Wanfang Mirror, and how could we have left fire marks on your wrist."

Hearing him say this once, Yan Qingqiu was a little taken aback, and felt in his heart that he seemed to be really not good at communicating with people.

"That's Xiaoxian worrying too much."

Shuguang Xingjun hummed lightly, and did not reply. Yan Qingqiu followed behind awkwardly. Since he is not good at words, he doesn't have to force himself to communicate with him.

In this silent night, a man and a woman who were equally silent walked side by side around the city circle after circle. During this period of time, there were no attacks by murderers and robbers, and no ghosts and ghosts broke into the city.

Anle's livelihood has not paralyzed the brain, but is still cautious.

At the end of the day, the search was fruitless, and the two returned to the inn in despair. With their own headless patrols, it was far less reliable to find a local resident as a guide.

During the day, because I don't know the situation in the city, and I don't know what factors caused the purple light, so I choose to come out at night to investigate the situation.

Seeing that everything is safe, I decided to ask for information to make arrangements.

After returning to the inn, the two said their goodbyes and went to their respective rooms. Yan Qingqiu lay down early to recuperate, while Lord Shuguang Xing sat cross-legged and meditated all night.

From the moment the time entered the sub-hour, Yan Qingqiu, who was about to fall asleep, and Shuguang Xingjun, who was meditating, were both awakened by the sound of a dull copper bell.

The sound of the bell pierced through the eardrums, and Yan Qingqiu felt dizzy immediately. That feeling was exactly the same as when she flew into the airspace of Xu Ancient City today.

The wooden window was quietly pushed open, and the lights were dim. It seemed that the residents of the city had long been used to it, and the street was still empty, but this street gave her an inexplicable sense of weirdness.

There seems to be something different, she can't tell, after all, she is not familiar with this town, so she went back to bed and lay down without thinking too much.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Yan Qingqiu was awakened by a knock on the door, and with his sleepy eyes, he felt the faint light coming from outside the window.

dawn
"Fairy, it's me"

A familiar voice came from outside the door, Yan Qingqiu hurriedly put on his shoes, and hastily cast spells to change his clothes.

Pushing open the latch, he asked, "What's the matter Xingjun?"

"It's almost dawn, it's time to go to the surrounding mountains to investigate."

Yan Qingqiu didn't expect Shuguang Xingjun to be so considerate, and he cared more about it than himself even though he connected the lamp himself.

Yan Qingqiu had no objection, closed the door and went out of the city and into the mountains together.Because of the early departure time, the rooster would not open the door unless it crowed, so it could only fly out of the city.

The brilliance of dawn illuminates the sky, and the black and red clouds are slowly floating. The trees in the forest are so dense that the light in the mountains is not clear.

"I'm really sorry, Lord Shuguangxing."

Yan Qingqiu's sudden apology surprised Mr. Shu Guangxing, and raised his eyes slightly, "Why do you apologize?"

Understanding the reason for Yan Qingqiu's apology in an instant, he stopped and said, "Fairy doesn't need to apologize, the loss of the lamp is the fault of the Cave Spirit, and it is reasonable to punish it with His Majesty.

But after all, the Forgiveness Palace cannot do without him, so I, an idler, has to be punished on his behalf. Mo Chen is anxious only to help the fairy return to heaven earlier, not because she is tired of the fairy. "

After finishing speaking, Mr. Shuguang Xing glanced away, revealing a solid back.

Yan Qingqiu stared, his expression full of surprise.

She apologized only because she stepped on muddy water and accidentally splashed it on Shuguang Xingjun's lower garment, so she said sorry.

It's just that now that the other party said these heartfelt words, Yan Qingqiu really can't expose the facts, so he can only follow what Shuguang Xingjun said.

"So...so that's the case, Xiaoxian really misunderstood Mr. Xing, let's go on." Mr. Shuguang Xing nodded, and the two continued to move forward cautiously.

Until the sun was high and the sun was high, the two still had nothing to gain. When they were about to leave, Yan Qingqiu suddenly discovered that there was a stone wall piled up in front of the mountain gap.

When she was a mortal, she had hidden in the mountains, so she naturally knew that such a building would not form naturally, it was piled up with carefully selected stones.

Yan Qingqiu explained to Lord Shuguangxing that he had no doubts. When he was at the inn, he could clearly feel that although this fairy was young, she was more sophisticated than some thousand-year-old fairies.

Without hesitation, the two walked quickly to the gap between the mountains. The gap left on the mountainside seemed to be chiseled by a natural axe.

The woods are thick, the mountains are steep, wet and slippery, and hidden from mortals.

Immortals are immortals after all, the gaps get darker as you go in, and with only a little light source, you can see farther away.

"Is anyone there?" Yan Qingqiu called out, but there was no response except for the echo echoing in the gap.

"It looks like there's no one here right now," Yan Qingqiu whispered.

"Fairy is not careless, it's better to be careful."

Between the gaps, drops of water falling from the cave hit the rocks, and with the breathing of the two, the atmosphere in the cave became extremely tense.

They have been completely immersed in the darkness, and because of the unknown danger, they did not choose to cast spells to ignite the fire, and they soon came to an end.

"Go, go."

This trip didn't yield much. Just as the two of them were leaving angrily, Mr. Shuguang Xing suddenly found something attacking Yan Qingqiu.

"careful!"

As soon as the words fell, he caught the shadow attacking Yan Qingqiu, and flames burst out from Yan Qingqiu's hands, lighting up the entire cave.

The two of them took a closer look and found that it was a young girl, holding a pot in her hand, trying to attack Yan Qingqiu.

"Let go of me, let me go! You demons!" Seeing the girl grinning, her eyes wide open, she wondered if there might be some misunderstanding.

He opened his mouth and asked: "Girl, you have misunderstood the person, we two brothers and sisters just came to Xu Ancient City yesterday, I really don't know what enmity we have settled with the girl."

The girl was still struggling violently, and spat and cursed: "Grandma died here today, and she wouldn't give in to you demons."

Yan Qingqiu Shuguang Xingjun looked at each other, and let go of the woman under him.Seeing Lord Shuguang Xing let go, the woman staggered a few steps forward with difficulty.

Grabbing the crude and rusty dagger on the ground and pressing it against his neck, Yan Qingqiu saw that something was wrong and quickly cast a spell to stop it.

"Even if I die, I won't go with you!"

The two agreed that the girl's current mental state was irrational, Shuguang Xingjun's sleeves fluttered, and the restless woman fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.

Lord Shuguang Xing walked up to Yan Qingqiu, put his hands behind his back, looked at her and said, "Fairy, don't worry, I didn't hurt her."

"This child seems to be in a bad state of mind." Yan Qingqiu's eyes were flickering with worry, that woman looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child, how could she be a bad person?
"Don't worry, that girl is not a bad person, and she doesn't know us. She should have mistaken us for the invaders."

Yan Qingqiu nodded, looking at the girl sleeping soundly, he was puzzled.

"What if this child is really evil?"

"Impossible, I've never misjudged anyone, besides, Fairy can also see that she is not a bad person.

Anyway, let her calm down before talking to us. "
