After walking for a while, Su Lingxiu continued to move forward boldly, and Luo Xi followed closely with a little courage. Little butterflies flew around the two of them, pushing aside the grass. The forest became denser to the naked eye, so dense that several trees were crowded together. Together, as if to cover up the unknown thing behind.
The two people who walked cautiously towards the black wall felt increasingly inexplicable. No wonder, the dark moon, the wind, the high mountains and the old forests are synonymous with weirdness.
Luo Xi followed Su Lingxiu nervously.
In fact, in this situation where the role of vision is extremely low, Luo Xiwei's mastery of the Qi and Wind Techniques makes her much sharper than Su Lingxiu. Tonight, the Fengzhi Domain has been maintained at full activation.
A huge amount of information came with the breeze, telling her the aura of the creatures within a kilometer radius. Yet she was still afraid.
call out! Suddenly, the sound of breaking wind came, and the two of them raised their heads almost at the same time. Su Lingxiu took a step forward to block Luo Xi slightly behind him, and struck out with his right hand, shaking the incoming object hard, and then sparks bloomed. Accompanied by the sound of gold and iron, Su Lingxiu directly held the thing in his hand, and felt it was an arrow by rubbing it with his fingers.
The two of them stared at the woods in front of them with solemn expressions. Even Luo Xiwei, whose Fengzhi Domain was fully open, did not feel where the arrow came from. Su Lingxiu was able to intercept this arrow only by relying on his extremely sharp five senses.
"Can you feel it?" Su Lingxiu lowered his voice.
"There is no breath of this arrow, and the disturbance of the airflow is smoothed by something."
Su Lingxiu frowned, completely unable to sense the situation of the other party. Once the other party had malicious intentions, their situation would be jealous and dangerous. He had no choice but to cup his hands in the distance in the forest and said: "I was passing by here, and I don't know if any fellow Taoist stopped me."
silence.
The two looked at each other, and Luo Xi tugged at the corner of his clothes. She had wanted to leave this gloomy place for a long time, but just in time, they didn't welcome us. Su Lingxiu understood that they were obviously not welcome at the front, so he had no choice but to leave.
"We have no ill intentions and no intention to disturb you. Since this road is blocked, we will take a detour." Su Lingxiu said with a smile, thrust the crushed arrow in his hand into the ground in front of him, and then took Luo Luo Xiwei backed away slowly.
silence.
Finally, when the two were about to leave, the silence was broken by a voice in the woods: "Wait a minute."
The voice could not tell the difference between male and female, and it was empty and contained no emotion, but it was just right for the two of them to hear clearly. The two exchanged glances, guessing what the other person meant and stopped retreating.
"What's the matter?" Su Lingxiu asked cautiously, and Luo Xiwei also added: "We were just passing by..."
"This is not a forbidden area, but the access time has expired. If you want to enter, please answer a few questions truthfully."
Access control? Since ancient times, it has been said that only big cities have access control. Is it possible that there is a city behind this?
Yes, Su Lingxiu once again thought of the city wall-like thing in front of him that went straight into the clouds, and concluded that what they were facing should be a normal sentry outside the city.
"There should be a city behind here. If you are lucky, there will be a bed to sleep on tonight."
"Really?" Luo Xiwei looked at him very happily. She was already tired of sleeping on the haystacks and slates. Su Lingxiu smiled and nodded.
This time the other party responded promptly. "Are you two blood descendants from the wilderness, or are you citizens of the city-state?"
"I am a citizen of the city-state." Su Lingxiu said loudly.
"Isn't this nonsense? We are just about to put the city-state on our faces." Luo Xiwei whispered in Su Lingxiu's ear.
"Why do the citizens of the city-state appear in the wilderness at night, and there are only two of them."
"I was driving all night and happened to pass by this place." Su Lingxiu answered truthfully.
"What's the relationship between you two?"
Why? This question is a bit redundant... Luo Xiwei muttered in his heart, but Su Lingxiu answered simply: "Brother and sister." As soon as he finished speaking, he felt Her Royal Highness pinch him hard on the back of the waist. Turning around, Luo Xi glared at him angrily.
silence.
There was silence for a long time. Just when the two of them were about to ask questions, there were a few trembling sounds, as if some invisible field had dissipated. The previous permeating feeling immediately disappeared, making the two of them feel more relaxed. . Those entangled trees slowly parted, revealing the scenery behind. Sure enough, there was a pavilion that looked like a sentry.
On the high platform, a creature sat cross-legged and looked at the two people with calm eyes. The young boy who was about the age of dancing spoons was dressed in black robes and had a handsome face. He was as handsome as Su Lingxiu, and his temperament was slightly similar. However, Su Lingxiu had more heroic spirit, while the mysterious boy had a plainer and more profound look between his eyebrows. feel.
In comparison, Su Lingxiu's temperament is a little thin... This is Luo Xiwei's first impression from observing his aura using the technique of Qi and Wind.
The young man stood up and spread out a pair of extremely black wings behind him. He fluttered up and landed steadily in front of the two of them.
Facing the confused two people, he didn't explain too much, just a gesture of invitation. "Please follow me closely." Then, he turned around and walked into the dense forest. The two looked at each other, and after hesitating for a while, they both chose to trust the young man in front of them.
The reason is very simple. The other party is willing to escape from a situation where they have an absolute advantage and face them with their true bodies, which is enough to trust them.
"Excuse me, what is the meaning of those questions just now..." After walking silently in the forest for a long time, Luo Xiwei finally asked. She still couldn't understand the difference between asking those questions and not asking them.
"The question is not important, what is important is your voice." The mysterious boy answered briefly.
Su Lingxiu immediately understood. Seeing that Luo Xiwei was still confused, thinking that as a princess, she didn't know much about city defense, he explained in a low voice: "It has the same principle as your Qi and Wind techniques."
After hearing what Su Lingxiu said, she understood. It is probably some kind of formation that can identify species by sound and breath. Many large cities have similar formations around them to give early warning of enemy attacks.
The few people continued walking, the path was twists and turns, and after a while, they finally reached the foot of the huge wall, and a huge dark city gate appeared in front of them. "The access control time has passed. It is difficult to open the city gate."
The young man in black robe turned around, still wearing the same expression as Gu Jing.
"I will use space to teleport, do you two mind?"
After receiving a positive answer, he turned around to face the city gate and stretched out his right hand to cover the city gate. Then, the huge city gate started to ripple around his palm like water droplets dripping into the water.
Both of them have obviously seen the big world, and they are not too surprised.
"What's behind this?" Su Lingxiu asked.
"Yinxu." The young man said, and layers of space laws were constructed around them. In an instant, the entire space was changing. The two people inside felt an extremely ethereal and transparent feeling, and everything became Transparent, everything small contains infinite vastness. The next moment, the huge wall was behind the two of them.
It has an extremely ethereal and vast feeling that is unforgettable no matter how many times you experience it.
This is just a simple space movement. What kind of free state should those gods who roam in the void have?
Su Lingxiu's heart was filled with expectations for the future, but those expectations were immediately dashed by the sight before him. Both fell into a state of astonishment. As soon as they saw it, a huge city spread out in front of their eyes, and the noise of people filled their ears.
Below you can see the prosperous long street of lights and the crowds of people walking like flowing water. A little further, you can see the beautiful buildings and jade buildings in the sky. In the distance, huge new underground roots poked out of the ground, spraying with spiritual energy full of life.
In the hearts of the two of them, the ferocious terror of the wilderness was washed away by the rain-like breath of fireworks, and was replaced by a familiar and gentle feeling of peace.
Yinxu, the destroyed city, bloomed new flowers in the wasteland.
The young man in black robe turned to face the two of them and bowed slightly.
"The cold arrow just fired was actually a routine warning. It was too reckless. Please forgive me."
"That's natural." Su Lingxiu recovered from his shock.
"Well, I wish you both a pleasant stay."
Su Lingxiu nodded and looked at the prosperous nighttime street in front of him. He had too many related questions and he wanted to ask the young man in front of him carefully. However, when he turned his head again, the young man in black robe had disappeared.
"Hey, where has he gone?" Luo Xiwei also noticed it and asked Su Lingxiu.
"I don't know, I was here just now." Su Lingxiu said, feeling a little regretful.
"Oh, let's go shopping." Luo Xi was so subtle that he didn't care much about the mysterious black-robed boy, and pulled Su Lingxiu to go to the night market.
"Uh... have you brought any money?" Su Lingxiu followed her through the crowd. The two of them attracted a lot of attention, which he was not used to.
"Wow... what a pretty girl. I wonder which family's daughter she is."
"This young man is so handsome... he doesn't look like a local."
"Stop thinking nonsense. These two look like they are descendants of aristocratic families. Why are we waiting..."
From the curious and inquiring looks and whispers from the people around her, it was obvious that Her Royal Highness was already accustomed to these attentions. She said cheerfully: "Hehe, of course I brought money, so just go shopping with me."
The two of them walked forward, the road was brightly illuminated by glowstones, lanterns and people's hand-held lanterns. They walked through the streets in a residential area and came to an open space in the center of a road fork, where there was a huge bulletin board.
The street was very popular, and many people gathered near the bulletin board. With the help of the light emitted by the yellow firestone below the bulletin board, the two of them studied the words and pictures condensed by the spiritual power above.
Four years ago, the great City of Yinxu was destroyed in the Holy War of Heaven.
After the war, the new Emperor of Taiyin led the remaining Taiyin people, with the support of the central government, to absorb refugees from cities destroyed in other wars, and rebuilt Yinxu on the ruins, called the New Territory...
Most of the bulletin board introduces the origin of the new domain. Below, a simple picture is a simplified map of Yinxu New Territory. Su Lingxiu made a rough estimate based on the scale. The new territory is only 20% of the size of the old Yinxu Territory.
The other section is much more complicated, including official announcements issued by the Central Government, announcements issued by the New Territory Government, various advertisements, some current affairs articles, etc., everything is included.
The rest are all praising the achievements of the new emperor of Taiyin in reviving Yinxu in just four years and the greatness of the old emperor in leading the Taiyin Clan to save the empire from dire straits.
The old emperor and the two knew it, but the new emperor could not be said to know everything, but he could be said to be ignorant. Seeing this, the two could not help but become extremely curious about the new emperor of Taiyin.
Looking at the prosperous and lively scene of Xinyu Plaza, the two of them were happy in their own way. There were people singing and dancing in the center of the square, and there were many food vendors around. There were wine shops and teahouses all around, and some tall red buildings. There were beautiful women standing at the door soliciting customers, and they were looking at the winking woman. Hey, Luo Xiwei immediately decided that he had to go in. , but was stopped by Su Lingxiu.
"This is a brothel, let's move to another place."
"Brothel? It's interesting. I want to go in and have a look." Luo Xiwei's face was filled with excitement.
"Do you know what brothel means?" Su Lingxiu grabbed her.
"Don't you know it when you go in? Get out of the way!"
Su Lingxiu's expression was complicated. He hesitated for a moment, then leaned slightly towards Her Royal Highness's ear. "That place is..."
Luo Xi's face turned red, and his ears seemed to be bleeding. To a certain extent, she was also innocent, and Su Lingxiu's words had a huge impact on her heart.
"So your Highness the Princess likes this..." Su Lingxiu said solemnly.
"I, I, I, no!" Her Royal Highness just wanted to find a crack to get in at this moment.
Su Lingxiu laughed loudly, attracting passersby's attention and whispering to the two people in front of the brothel. Luo Xi was slightly embarrassed and furious, so he kicked him with his foot. The young man dodged and begged for mercy again and again with a smile. Her Royal Highness also laughed angrily: "Hey, you still dare to run!?"
