After Lei Zhitian left, Liangchen thought about it for a long time. He had no intention of refining the remaining two materials, and his mind was filled with thoughts like thousands of horses galloping.
After five years, Ye's store should have a new shopkeeper, and I will regain my freedom. I wonder how the family will arrange it?
Qiu Xinmeng didn't know whether she was in the middle or late stage of foundation building. She was originally at a higher level than herself!
I remember she said she would come to find me after her realm was stable. Have you ever been there?
How is Ye Kai's life at Tianjian Mountain? I don’t know if it’s going well or not.
Father will definitely be very sad when he finds out that he is missing. He will probably not tell his mother. He must visit her first when he returns this time.
After thinking about it for a few hours, Liangchen fell asleep in a daze.
Maybe it's been a long time since I had such a relaxing rest.
He dreamed that he had grown a pair of wings and danced with a group of butterflies and fireflies, flying over the sandy wasteland, through the dense forest of small leaves, and to the Magic Dragon City.
He came to a fiery red woman whose face could not be seen clearly.
But she knew it was Qiu Xinmeng, and she suddenly shouted:
"You're late!"
"Too late!!"
"late!!!"
The sound echoed louder and louder, and finally it seemed to be a cry of reluctance!
He suddenly woke up in a cold sweat.
Then I heard Hua Houxue’s slightly anxious voice coming from outside:
"It's too late! It's too late!"
"The hour is coming!"
Liangchen stood up in a hurry and walked out.
"Why did you come out? I thought something happened to you! The time to hand in the task is almost over." Hua Houxue said with a sigh of relief when she saw him walking out safely.
"Maybe I was too tired and fell asleep, which made me worried!" Liangchen explained.
"Hurry up and hand in the mission! There's not much time." Hua Houxue said.
Liangchen hurriedly walked out.
...
One month later.
Miss Hongyu came to the sword furnace again. When she came out, Lei Zhitian's face seemed not to be very good, and Liangchen did not ask.
"What's wrong? Brother." When Liangchen was in the weapon refining room, he saw Lei Zhitian come in and asked.
"The situation has changed, we have to leave early." Lei Zhitian said with a serious expression.
"What happened?" When Liangchen heard this, he was shocked. He could see the light of day again, but nothing could go wrong.
"I heard from Hongyu that some people above are very divided. She doesn't want to risk waiting until the results come out, and will find a way to let us out first." Lei Zhitian said slowly.
"What about Xin Sai and the others?" Liangchen asked.
"Oh~ she won't care so much." Lei Zhitian sighed.
"Would you like to think of a way to go together?" Liangchen thought for a while and asked.
"This is not a matter of finding a solution." Lei Zhitian shook his head.
"Then just abandon them?" Liangchen asked.
"It's not a matter of whether we give up or not! Others will only save us, and we have no choice." Lei Zhitian retorted.
"Besides, it's not necessarily dangerous. Maybe they just went out later than the two of us." Lei Zhitian said again, but even he himself didn't quite believe this.
"You should prepare for it, it should be in the next few days." Lei Zhitian lowered his voice and said.
"Yes. I understand." Liangchen felt extremely complicated for a moment.
. . . . . .
A few days later, I was queuing up to submit a task at a good time.
"Hakko handed over the mission." Liangchen said as he entered the room.
"Bajiayi." The man in gray robe repeated, and then took out a jade token.
Liangchen handed over the storage bag containing the sword. The man in gray robe took inventory and drew a tick on the jade plate.
He turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly the man in gray robe said:
"I'll report here tomorrow."
"Understood." Liangchen was startled, and then responded calmly.
...
The next day, night, midnight.
Liangchen opened the door of the refining room and walked out. There was no one outside. They were either refining or resting.
He slowly came to the concierge and saw someone already in the room, it was Lei Zhitian.
Seeing him come in, Lei Zhitian nodded towards him.
"Come here, put on these clothes." Seeing that the right time had come, the man in gray robe handed each of them a gray robe that was the same as theirs.
Liangchen took the clothes and put them on.
The clothes were made of unknown materials. They felt soft yet tough, and seemed to be able to isolate spiritual thoughts. The brim of the hat was very low, almost covering half of his face.
He turned around and saw that Lei Zhitian had also put on his clothes and was standing with the man in gray robe, almost indistinguishable.
"Just follow me later, and don't speak if you encounter any situation." The man in gray robe ordered the two of them in a hoarse voice.
"Yes!" Liangchen and Lei Zhitian responded.
The man in gray robe turned and walked out.
The two followed closely behind.
The three of them came out of the sword furnace. When Liangchen looked up, the sky was pitch black with not a single star in sight.
Several people walked along a road on the right side of the square, passed by the high platform and walked into a corridor.
The corridor seemed to be made of white jade, and at the end stood two men in gray robes wearing the same clothes.
Liangchen's palms were so nervous that they were all sweaty. He followed behind and moved forward slowly.
The person leading the way walked straight over as if nothing happened.
When passing the two people, the man in gray robe on the right suddenly said:
"Xiao Qi, where are you going so late?"
"Oh~ The Seventh Master sent a message asking me to escort a group of weapons to Blood Seal Mountain. By the way, I heard that many brothers were killed during this period?" The man in gray robe who led the way seemed to have already thought of his words, and finally asked.
"Yes. I don't know the details of the other party. He only appeared recently. The brother who escorted the weapons last time was mostly broken." The man in gray robe said.
"Most of the people were injured? I only heard about a few people. I didn't expect it to be so serious. It seems that this trip is not a good job." The man in gray robe who led the way shook his head, and then said: "Let's talk later. I'm late. Yes, the Seventh Master will scold you!"
"Be careful on the road." The guard in gray robe said.
The winding road passed through several corridors and a building that looked like an ancient castle. I encountered two more waves of guards on the way, but neither of them spoke.
After walking like this for about half an hour, the two of them felt their eyes light up, as if the world had changed.
Liangchen looked up and saw the stars in the sky, with soft starlight shining down.
He and Lei Zhitian looked at each other, and they saw the sky again in a few years. They had never felt that the starlight was so soft and beautiful!
Looking back, I saw towering mountains and could not see the way back.
At this time, several people were in a valley halfway up the mountain. The man in gray robe took away two more cups of tea and stopped.
"Thank you, senior, for taking us out of here." Liangchen thanked him.
"Hehe, I have fulfilled my promise to take you out of the Flame Mountain, and you can go on your way with peace of mind!" The man in gray robe suddenly laughed ferociously, grabbed his hands, and said to the two of them!
