"Yes! Yes! What Miss Zhaoxue said is very true. There is still some dry food on the back of the carriage. Hehe, let's get out of the carriage and make something to eat. Let's rest for a night and go on our way."
Seeing that Li Rui was the first to echo Hua Zhaoxue's words, Bai Ziting snorted coquettishly, and said disdainfully, "Eat, eat, eat! You only know how to eat! Hmph, you only eat and sleep! You can just change your name to Rui Zhu!"
Hearing Bai Ziting's coquettish tut, Li Rui gave Rao's head a little embarrassingly: "Hey... I just want to recover soon... Although it's not a big problem not to eat for a few days after Qili enters... But it's still a habit. I can't change it..."
"You!" Seeing Li Rui's bear-like appearance, Bai Ziting felt an unexplained anger in her heart: "All right! You go and eat! You'll die if you eat it!" go outside.
"..."
Tianyou took a look at Li Rui who was still sitting there awkwardly, looked at Li Yuanqian beside him, and then thought of the back of Bai Ziting who left angrily just now...
At this time, Tianyou felt that this boy named Li Rui... had a story...
"Tianyou, shall we go down too?" While Tianyou was in a daze, he suddenly heard a clear and gentle voice like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley.After regaining consciousness, he turned his head and met a pair of crystal clear eyes, matched with the slight dimples on his cheeks, making him look even more beautiful and incomparable, making people fascinated by them.
With a slight tremor in his heart, Tianyou nodded slightly, and then followed Hua Zhaoxue out of the carriage.
After Tianyou and the others came out, the sky had gradually darkened. Zhengbiao and Nie Wangqing had already started to pile up firewood. After piling up the firewood, when Nie Wangqing was about to take out a fire pocket from his sleeve and light it, Bai Ziting at the side saw this He said, "Don't bother, just leave the ignition to me."
After finishing speaking, a string of sparks shot out from Bai Ziting's delicate index finger, and she pointed towards the firewood pile. The two were startled.
Seeing the reactions of Nie Wangqing and Zhengbiao, Bai Ziting clapped her hands with a slightly satisfied expression.
At this time, Li Rui and Akane Kurihara also brought some dry food and fruit wine from the back of the carriage. When Li Rui saw the fire rising, his eyes flashed, and he quickly approached the fire with the food in his hand, picked it up A few wooden sticks were simply processed into a wooden frame, and the food was placed on the wooden frame and baked in the fire, and after a while, the air was filled with bursts of aroma.
All the people in the group were aroused by the scent of dried meat and bread, even Bai Ziting, who was sulking for some reason, was no exception.
Li Rui smiled when he saw the crowd, took out a knife, cut the meat, packed two pancakes, put them in a large bowl, and handed them to Hua Zhaoxue along with a clean kettle. "Miss Zhaoxue, you can eat first."
There is no other meaning in such behavior, it is just to understand the importance of Wu Qi in his heart.
"Thank you." Hua Zhaoxue took the big bowl from Li Rui's hand after thanking her, handed it to Tianyou, and said softly, "Tianyou, you must be hungry after such a long time, right? Eat more."
And Tianyou was not polite to Hua Zhaoxue either. After taking a deep look at Hua Zhaoxue with purple eyes, he took the big bowl in her hand and began to eat in small bites. Hua Zhaoxue at the side just sat beside him with a gentle expression, occasionally With a clean handkerchief in his hand, he wiped off the oil stains on the corners of his lips.
"..."
Nie Wangqing was fine, he had already seen this kind of scene yesterday, and he was still somewhat resistant.But the other four are different...Looking at Hua Zhaoxue's focused and gentle image, I feel a critical blow unconsciously in my heart...It's the kind of real damage...
After returning to their senses, the others endured the inexplicable sense of frustration in the center, and ate the roasted jerky around the fire, but they didn’t know if it was an illusion. It also becomes tasteless in the mouth...
"Uh, do you guys feel... that the forest seems a little too quiet?" Halfway through eating, Zhengbiao suddenly said, "Brother Nie, were you attacked by some kind of beast before? Let alone a beast, I didn’t even find a bird.”
Hearing Zhengbiao's unintentional words, Nie Wangqing paused, and couldn't help looking in Tianyou's direction.In just a moment, he looked away and yelled at Zhengbiao: "The carriage was attacked when we were just entering the forest, and we didn't see the appearance of the beast clearly in our haste, and we were not sure if it was from the forest. beast among them."
"Hey, this is fate~ If it weren't for that beast, we wouldn't have met Miss Zhaoxue and Tianyou."
Bai Ziting patted Li Rui on the head after seeing Li Rui say this, and scolded: "Can't you say something nice? What do you mean if it wasn't the beast? Could it be that Brother Tianyou and the others were attacked by the beast or not?" Is it a good thing?"
"No, that's not what I meant..."
Seeing that the two of them changed the topic, Nie Wangqing was also relieved. He didn't want to think about the whole story, as long as he knew that the person was still there and that he was not harmed, that would be enough, wouldn't it?

Chapter 36 Wolf Moon Barbarian City
The forest is connected in one piece, lush and lush, exuding a comfortable coolness, and the moonlight is like wisps of silvery fine sand, passing through the layers of branches and leaves, and falling on the grass.The blooming wildflowers on the grass give off a tempting fragrance from time to time. Although there are no birds calling, it fills the forest with a sense of tranquility.
The fire jumped from time to time and made a crackling sound. Beside the fire, a group of people leaned against a tree to rest.
Tianyou and Hua Zhaoxue didn't sleep together like last night, but they still leaned on the same tree trunk, and they could clearly feel each other's warmth when they turned around.
"Tianyou...your conduct is a bit like the gentleman's demeanor described in the book..." Hua Zhaoxue turned sideways, looked directly at the enchanting purple eyes under the dark night and moonlight, and said infatuatedly: "Your Majesty, if you don't talk in vain, your words must be reasonable. You must not act rashly, and your actions must be rational. Although Tianyou has lost your past memories, Zhaoxue has felt your character in the process of getting along with you, especially... ...Last night..." At the end of the sentence, Hua Zhaoxue's voice became softer, like a mosquito.
Hearing this, Tianyou turned to Hua Zhaoxue and smiled slightly: "Sister Zhaoxue, you are exaggerating, I am not as good as you said, it's just...it's just that I can't organize my thoughts for a while."
Seeing Tianyou's smile, Hua Zhaoxue clenched her fists quietly, her eyes began to drift, and she asked softly, "God, Tianyou...have you really...didn't remember anything about the past?"
"..." The smile on Tianyou's face gradually froze, and a few strands of silver-like platinum hair emerged from behind the mist in the depths of his mind.
"The past...is it really that important?" Tianyou breathed a sigh of relief, as if asking himself and answering.
"Uh……?"
"Just like sister Zhaoxue, you also had an experience that you don't want to recall, maybe...my past is also the same." Looking at Hua Zhaoxue's dull eyes, Tianyou reached out to wipe the tree dust off her head, and said softly : "Since the past may be a sad past, how to cherish the present is a question worth thinking about. Isn't it?"
Hua Zhaoxue closed her beautiful eyes, felt the touch on her head, inexplicably evoked a memory of the past, and it was difficult to calm down her thoughts for a while.In the midst of thousands of thoughts, Hua Zhaoxue stretched out her hand to hold Tianyou's hand that wiped her head, and gently laid her cheek on the warmth.
Tianyou didn't refuse when she saw this, but just moved her body closer to Hua Zhaoxue.The two of them slept together like last night...
Rely on... for no reason...
..........................................................................................
In the morning, the sun rises.
Li Rui, who was resting on the grass in large characters, opened his eyes suddenly after being illuminated by the early morning sun.
After waking up, Li Rui first looked at Nie Wangqing and Zhengbiao who were lying next to him, and then looked at Tianyou and Hua Zhaoxue who were depending on each other under the tree not far away, feeling complicated for a while...
But this is not the time to worry about these things, he patted Zhengbiao who was sleeping soundly beside him, and after he woke up faintly, he asked him to wake up Tianyou and the others, and went to call Bai Ziting and Kurihara Qian himself.
After about a quarter of an hour, everyone was woken up.Seeing that everyone was awake, Li Rui briefly explained to Nie Wangqing, hoping to speed up and go to the interior of Mancheng as soon as possible, and after meeting his sister, he formed a team to explore the ruins.
Nie Wangqing first glanced at Hua Zhaoxue who was beside Tianyou, and after seeing her nodding slightly, she agreed to Li Rui's proposal.
After that, under Nie Wangqing and Zhengbiao's intention to speed up, they arrived at the border of the forest in one day, just like last night's process, they continued to set off after a night's rest.Until the forest that came out came to a barren wilderness, and at the end of the wilderness stood a lonely city.
Seeing this barren wilderness, Li Rui and the others didn't have much ups and downs, but Hua Zhaoxue and Nie Wangqing were very surprised. Although they heard that Langyue City is a place that lacks control, even if it doesn't seem like Shengwu's other The city is so magnificent, so there should be some scenery, but now there are gravel and dust, dead vines and old trees, and dark clouds hanging down, as if covered with a thick curtain. The tree-lined scene in the forest presents a strong contrast.
"This...is the Wolf Moon Barbarian City?" Amidst the surprise, Hua Zhaoxue couldn't help confirming to Li Rui and his party.In her opinion, this atmosphere may not be as simple as the lack of control mentioned earlier...
Li Rui seemed to have sensed what Hua Zhaoxue was thinking, and replied with a wry smile: "Miss Zhaoxue, your impression of Langyue Man City may still be many years ago... Think about it, this place is between the holy dance and the prayer battle." It is between the borders of the two countries, and the area is not huge. Although the two countries do not have good relations, there is no need to go to war over this barbaric city. Over time, this place will become a world of its own and will not be affected by the two countries. So... Please also Miss Zhaoxue, Tianyou and Brother Nie, be prepared...the atmosphere inside may be worse than you imagined..."
Li Rui was about to explain something, but Hua Zhaoxue looked at the lonely city with her eyes lost. It seems that what she just said made her feel a little hesitant.
"Sister Zhaoxue, don't worry, Li Rui's sister still has some status in this barbaric city. Besides, we decided to explore earlier and we will simply meet up with Li Rui's sister and leave after learning some necessary information. So Also, sister Zhaoxue, please rest assured, brother Tianyou will definitely be fine!"
Just when Li Rui didn't know how to persuade Hua Zhaoxue, Bai Ziting made a relief.
But Hua Zhaoxue was still staring at the lonely city at the end of the wilderness in a daze, not knowing how to make a decision.
Chapter 37
Seeing that Hua Zhaoxue was struggling, Li Rui became a little anxious, and immediately followed Bai Ziting's words and assured Hua Zhaoxue: "Miss Zhaoxue, if you are here this time, we will be more confident in our expedition this time. With your Wuqi status and my sister's influence, you can definitely guarantee Tianyou's safety."
Tian You, who was on the side, saw that the topics were centered around himself, and they were all talking about his own safety.Looking at Hua Zhaoxue's uncertain struggling expression, I felt a little touched in my heart for a moment, and said softly: "Sister Zhaoxue, if what Li Rui and the others said is true, although this relic has a touching history, it is indeed important to you, Sister Zhaoxue. It is also a rare and precious opportunity for this kind of practitioner, if you go in and explore, you may gain something."
"I know...it's just that I'm afraid..." After hearing Tianyou's persuasion, Hua Zhaoxue woke up from the trance, looking at Tianyou with deep worry in her eyes.
Looking at Hua Zhaoxue's worried eyes, Tianyou smiled lightly, leaned close to Hua Zhaoxue's crystal clear ear and said softly: "Sister Zhaoxue, although I don't remember my past now, but... I can Feel the power in your body~"
"Uh..." Being so close by Tianyou, the refreshing fragrance reached Hua Zhaoxue's heart, slightly intoxicating, and before she could react, Tianyou left, nodded to Nie Wangqing, and replaced Hua Zhaoxue. Zhaoxue said to Li Rui and the others: "Sister Zhaoxue has agreed, and please don't worry too much about my safety. Although we have taken care of Sister Zhaoxue, I still have some means of self-protection."
Seeing Tianyou's approval, Li Rui and the others breathed a sigh of relief.Quickly take the lead.Seeing Tianyou's consent, Hua Zhaoxue gave him a gloomy look, but after all, she didn't refute, followed the pace of Li Rui and the others, and approached the lonely city at the end of the wilderness.
"Something's not quite right."
When he was about to reach the gate of Gucheng, Akane Kurihara, who had not spoken for the past few days, suddenly spoke.This move first aroused Bai Ziting's curiosity: "Hey~ Sister Yuanqian is finally willing to speak~ I thought you wouldn't say a word until the ruins~"
"..."
Li Rui was taken aback when he saw Akane Kurihara speak, but he knew Akane Kurihara's character, ignored Bai Ziting's teasing, and quickly asked Akane Kurihara, "Is there anything unusual about the situation?"
Akane Kurihara looked at Li Rui and Bai Ziting in surprise, and said softly, "Don't you think the temperature in Man City is a bit low?"
This seemingly plain sentence made Li Rui, Bai Ziting, and Zhengbiao's expressions pale.
Hua Zhaoxue and Nie Wangqing on the side looked at each other, and asked a little puzzled; "The temperature? We think it's quite normal..."
"No, Miss Zhaoxue, that's not the case." Li Rui's face gradually became solemn: "Because of the influence of some casual cultivators and the influence of the atmosphere in the city, the environment in Mancheng has always been maintained. Hot and gloomy..."
Speaking of this, Li Rui's face changed, and before he had time to explain, he entered the barbarian city first.
The people left behind looked at each other, and followed Li Rui into this isolated city with its gates wide open and unguarded.
After entering the Man City, he saw Li Rui's sluggish figure. Not only him, Bai Ziting, Li Yuan Qian, and Zheng Biao were all stunned after seeing the scene in the Man City.
The air in the street is still so gloomy, but the bustling city full of people's voices and explicit words in the past has completely disappeared at this time.There were only a few skinny beggars in ragged clothes squatting in the corner tremblingly, their eyes full of panic.
Slave trade, robbing men in the street... etc., this series of low-level scenes all disappeared.
"...The atmosphere in this city doesn't seem to be as bad as you said, little brother Li Rui... It's just that those beggars look a little pitiful..."
Standing behind the crowd, Nie Wangqing saw the scene of the barbaric city, and for a moment doubted Li Rui's previous words...
"No, it's not..." After Li Rui recovered from his sluggishness, he stopped speaking. He was not stupid enough to explain to them the usual scene here, and the key now is to figure out what happened here. .
"Everyone, the exact location of the ruins and the method of entry are all with my sister. For now, let's go to my sister's residence to meet her and discuss countermeasures."
Li Ruiqiang suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and told everyone.
The changing temperature in the air, the strange scene in the barbarian city...
It seems that there have been unexpected changes in the exploration of the ruins this time...
Chapter 38 Desire
Li Rui led the way with an anxious expression on his face. Although Tianyou and the others had doubts in their hearts, they couldn't say anything when they saw Li Rui's and his group's faces were heavy. They walked like this for a while, and after about half an hour, they stopped Arriving in front of a group of buildings, Tianyou looked up, and saw that the surrounding area was full of old cypresses, and every day was repaired, like a cool world, from which the buildings formed a layered trend, which was in sharp contrast to the desolate scene of the street before. contrast.
And there are more pedestrians here, most of them are noblemen in luxurious clothes and cultivators who are praying outwardly. When these gentlemen and female practitioners see Hua Zhaoxue and Tianyou, their eyes are revealed without any concealment. Greedy look, but in an instant, as if thinking of something panic, he hurriedly looked away and left in a hurry.
Before Tianyou and the others were confused, Li Rui led them into a courtyard that looked simple but did not lose its grandeur.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Rui quickened his pace and led the crowd to the inner courtyard, calling out while walking:
"Sister! Sister! Here we come!"
Tianyou followed the sound and looked forward, only to see an intelligent woman in a blue palace dress and snow-white veil, walking back and forth in the courtyard anxiously.
After hearing Li Rui's shout, the woman in palace costume paused, and her anxious expression eased a lot.
"You kid, you haven't heard from me since the last time we parted. I don't know where you went crazy. Do you know how worried my sister is about you!?"
Being reprimanded by his sister, Li Rui's expression immediately withered, and he lowered his head obediently to accompany him.
At this time, the woman in palace attire began to look at the people behind Li Rui, nodding her head one by one, and finally fixed her gaze on Tianyou and the others, and asked suspiciously, "Who are these...?"
"Hey! Sister Yilin! This handsome little brother is called Tianyou, the one with the same physique as Zhengbiao is Nie Wangqing, and this beautiful young lady is called Hua Zhaoxue, a dancer!" proudly introduced to the lady in palace costume
"Wu Qi?" After hearing Bai Ziting's introduction, Li Yilin looked at Hua Zhaoxue with disbelief. Seeing this, Hua Zhaoxue greeted Li Yilin politely, with an elegant and graceful appearance.
"By the way, sister, what happened in Man City? Why do you feel that the atmosphere here is so strange?" Just when Li Yilin was still in shock with Wu Qi's identity, Li Rui, who was hanging his head down, suddenly asked her .
"..." Li Yilin was silent, and after a while, she slowly said: "Just the day before yesterday, a powerful man who was at least a seventh-level demon prayer came to Man City. The temperature and atmosphere in the city were caused by that powerful man. Because, this is what I want to tell you, I am afraid that this mighty man also came for the sand burial ruins."
"Seventh, seventh level??" Li Yilin's words made everyone except Tianyou think that their faces sank. Although the seventh level is not as powerful as the eighth level, it is still very close to the peak that human beings can reach. If such a strong person advances If they entered the ruins, then they really wouldn't have the slightest desire to compete with them.
"Although the strong person is at least level seven strong, what is certain is that she has not yet entered the ruins. The owner of the sand-burial ruins set up a phantom wave wonderland around him before passing away. If you want to forcibly break through, you must have the same level of cultivation as the owner of the ruins, that is, level eight. As for the level eight practitioners, only the empress and empress can reach the two countries of holy dance and prayer battle. As the lord of a country, they should not rashly Leave the imperial city!"
"Sister Yilin, do you want to tell us that the Illusory Stone is in your hands?" Akane Kurihara, who was listening quietly, asked suddenly.
Li Yilin nodded with a serious expression, and then took out a pearl the size of a baby's fist from her sleeve. The pearl shone brilliantly, attracting everyone's attention in an instant.
"This is the Illusion Breaking Orb. Without it to disperse the phantom waves around the ruins, even a level [-] powerhouse would not be able to break through. But even so, I don't really recommend that you go to explore the ruins this time... ..." Speaking of this, Li Yilin's expression became visibly depressed. For this relic, she paid too much, arranged eyeliner, concealed the news, bought a lot of money to break the illusion... and so on.But that's the end of the matter, she can't joke about her brother's safety.
Not only Li Yilin, but also Li Rui and others showed signs of disappointment one after another. They crossed the vast border and came here. After making choices, the final result was still nothing.
"Everyone...can you listen to me..." After a long struggle.After all, Li Rui still couldn't be satisfied. The eighth-level relic contains unimaginable things! It may be a peerless magic weapon, or a heaven-defying technique, but what Li Rui really wants to find is that possibility.Women who are punished by Heaven can also break through the eighth level and aspire to the peak, so...in the ruins, is there a way for men to gain prayer power?!
With such extravagant hopes, Li Rui said to everyone in a deep voice: "Since the seventh-level powerhouse came here a few days ago, if he hadn't entered the ruins, would he have left long ago? Even if we didn't leave, if we If we go in the middle of the night, is it possible to stagger the time to meet that strong man?
After thinking for a moment, Li Yilin still felt that Li Rui's proposal was too risky, but when she was about to speak out to stop her, she met Li Rui's eyes.
It was a longing... the most sincere longing...
It's a desire for power—it's also a resentment that God didn't bestow favor on men...
Li Yilin was silent... The words of restraint turned into consent unconsciously...
Not only her, but the two girls beside Li Rui also noticed it. After looking at each other with Zhengbiao, they nodded silently and agreed to Li Rui's proposal.
Seeing this, Li Rui showed a very grateful expression, and then said sincerely to Hua Zhaoxue: "Miss Zhaoxue, this exploration of the ruins is different from what I talked about before. If you don't want to go with us, we will not force you. Even if you don't follow Let's go, and my sister will help you arrange where to go."
"This..." After Hua Zhaoxue and Nie Wangqing heard this, they couldn't help looking at Tianyou who was aside at the same time. When they noticed the strange memory, Tianyou had unknowingly become their main heart.
