The words fell,
Xu Yuan smiled lightly at the girl and looked away, but Tian Yan's heart tightened subconsciously.
call him xu yuan
Looking at his profile, Tian Yan pursed his lips gently:
"You're angry?"
"Ah?" Xu Yuan looked back blankly: "Why are you so angry?"
Halfway through her words, Xu Yuan looked at her like a little girl who had done something wrong, and suddenly realized what she was referring to.
First name and given name.
In this world, people who are close to you are addressed by words, not names.
His eldest brother and father always called him Changtian.
Considering Tian Yan's inexplicable angry behavior just now, his words just now are equivalent to telling Tian Yan,
Our relationship stops here, there is no need to go further.
The girl's easy-to-understand thoughts made Xu Yuan dumbfounded for a moment. He subconsciously wanted to tease the washboard saint, but then he gave up.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the billowing clouds and mists below.
There, the brown land is already looming.
Everything has its own priorities, and he doesn't know much about Gui Wu.
After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan said softly:
"Well you could take that as a nickname."
"Nick name?"
Although Tian Yan was a little confused, looking at Xu Yuan's smiling face, he felt slightly relieved.
She had seen the bastard Xu Yuan look really angry, but not like this.
There was a moment of silence,
Tian Yan said in a low voice: "The nerves are really inexplicable."
Xu Yuan smiled softly, but before he spoke, he immediately met Tian Yan's eyes that looked at him half-squinted like a fox:
"Xu Yuan, did you just say that?"
Xu Yuan's heart tightened and his eyes were clear:
"What?"
"You just asked me to call you Xu Yuan."
"What's the meaning?"
"Also, who else did you ask to call you Xu Yuan before?"
"."
Damn it, Tian Yan is so stupid, yet he can figure out these details so clearly.
Admit it directly, or make it up casually?
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan already had the answer in his heart.
Using other big ice cubes to stimulate Tian Yan once or twice can increase Tian Yan's sense of crisis, but if it is done too often, it will be counterproductive.
After a little silence, Xu Yuan chuckled and casually said:
"A lot of people, my father, my eldest brother"
"Do you think I, the Jiantian Pavilion, have never deduced your prime minister's house? There are scenes of you and your family getting along."
"."
The corners of Xu Yuan's eyes twitched.
Damn it, why is this Gui Yan Tian Jue still a spy?
Tian Yan snorted coldly, his voice was very indifferent:
"That person is nothing more than Ran Qingmo, why do you have to hide it?"
As she spoke, her voice dropped slightly, almost inaudibly: "Huh, you and I are nothing anyway, and there is no way there will be any results."
The girl's expression was a little lonely. Xu Yuan's narrow eyes narrowed slightly and he squeezed her little hand with a smile:
"Hey, are you hungry?"
Tian Yan lowered his eyes and looked down at the falling ground without saying a word.
It's obviously a taste.
Xu Yuan's voice was neither urgent nor slow:
"It's not certain whether we can go out or not. Why are you so jealous?"
"Don't use this excuse."
Tian Yan suddenly said:
"We have been together for seven years, you and Ran Qingmo just... forget it."
Halfway through, Tian Yan seemed to find it a bit difficult to speak, so he turned away and stopped talking.
Seeing the girl eating the food, Xu Yuan felt inexplicably ripples in his heart, but he did not choose to explain or say some tricks to coax her.
Da Bingtuozi's temperament only needs to be pampered and obeyed, but Tianyan's temperament needs to be pushed and trained.
He has never forgotten Tian Yan's condescending and bitchy attitude when he first appeared as a girl.
If he obeys blindly, Tian Yan's tail can reach the sky.
Silence spread between the two of them,
from time to time,
The white mist surging all around finally came to an end, a wave of air rolled, and the two of them landed smoothly at the bottom of Zhujian Valley.
Holding Tian Yan's little hand, Xu Yuan looked around with blood-gleaming eyes, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
As far as the eye can see, it turns out to be a forest.
But compared with the lush green forest tops on the top of the cliff, the woods at the bottom of the valley look haggard and twisted.
The dry branches are dark brown, and the leaves are sharp needle-like. The roots that should be rooted in the soil are twisted and exposed, and they are slowly and undetectably squirming.
Moreover, through the powerful mind soul and Yuanqi perception of the Origin Realm, Xu Yuan can also sense that there are many creatures moving slowly in this forest.
But because the distance was too far and the ghost mist interfered, he couldn't sense it clearly and couldn't know its true appearance.
But everything in front of him was beyond his understanding.
Seven years ago, the ghost mist outside Jingjiang Mansion that was kept captive by the Prime Minister was completely different from this ancient battlefield.
The color of the captive ghost mist is as black as ink, and there are no living things in it except ghosts. Even if living people and demons are thrown into it, they will be swallowed up immediately.
And here in front of you.
"Tianyan."
Xu Yuan asked hesitantly: "Are there any living things in this ghost mist?"
Although he was still angry, Tian Yan did not let his personal affair affect his business affairs. He glanced around with a pair of golden eyes and asked calmly:
"Why can't there be living things?"
Xu Yuan froze when asked, looked around, and replied thoughtfully:
"I remember that the ghost mist can swallow all living creatures."
Tian Yan shook his head gently and pulled Xu Yuan forward:
“There are still too few books in your Prime Minister’s Mansion, so few that you don’t even know what the ghost mist was like in the past.
"Xu Yuan, whether it is ghosts or these creatures at the bottom of the valley, as long as they want to continue, they must find an interdependent relationship.
"And in this ancient battlefield that has lasted for an unknown amount of time, a balance has already been formed."
"."
After listening carefully, Xu Yuan thought for a moment, then felt relieved, looked at the strange surroundings, and complained in a low voice:
"Oh, Yin Gui actually understands sustainable development."
The ghost mist kept in captivity by the Prime Minister's Mansion has the external force of the Prime Minister's Mansion to continuously deliver death row prisoners and corpses to it in order to achieve the purpose of producing soul beads.
But the wild ghost mist here has no external force to deliver blood food.
If it wants to continue, it must find a balanced ecology.
In other words, this ghost mist that is almost boundless is actually the breeding ground of Yin ghosts, and the living creatures in it are all the spare food for Yin ghosts.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan didn't say anything more.
Thousands of years ago, the powerful ghosts kept captive creatures for blood food.
Thousands of years later, when humans became strong, they kept ghosts in captivity as resources.
It is only fair that the strong plunder the weak.
“It’s such a weird ecosystem.”
Feeling the warmth of the girl's fingertips, Xu Yuan made a rustling sound when he stepped on the dark brown soil, and sighed softly:
"But with such a large-scale ghost mist, how many people died in the Sword Valley as an ancient battlefield?"
As the saint of Jiantian Pavilion, Tian Yan seems to have read ancient books related to this period of history:
"More than billions of living beings."
Hundreds of millions
The huge number stunned Xu Yuan for a moment, and then he looked back:
"What did you say?"
Tian Yan's golden pupils swept around, pointed at his feet, and said in a calm tone:
"In the early days, our human race was not the only one in the fourteen continents of Middle-earth. Today, the great prosperity of the human race is the result of the sages who conquered the world step by step. At the end of the troubled times, only the human race and the demon race were the most powerful, and these Sword Valleys will It was the place where the battle between the human and demon clans took place.
“A war that risks the prosperity of an entire race, with hundreds of millions of casualties, is not that much.
"The human race won this battle, so we monopolized the fourteen fertile lands of the Central Plains, while the demon race was forced to retreat westward into the ancient abyss."
Saying,
Tian Yan recalled a little and continued calmly:
"Furthermore, according to the ancient records I read, these Sword Valleys were the terrain created by that battle."
"."
This information is not available in the Prime Minister's Office.
Even except for the Jiantian Pavilion, no one may know this ancient secret.
But this information from who knows how many years ago is not important at all.
After Xu Yuan listened, he realized another problem and asked in a low voice to the girl beside him:
"The ghost mist in the Sword Valley should continue to expand outwards, right?"
The ghost mist will expand, which is almost common sense to practitioners.
Xu Yuan didn't think that Zhujiangu would break this common sense.
Although this ghost mist seems to form a strange balance, the total area is only so large, and the resources within it will be exhausted sooner or later.
There is such a big ghost fog lying here. As the big brother in the world, Jian Tiange actually leaves it alone?
If it were the current situation in the world, the army would definitely be mobilized to eliminate such dangers as soon as possible.
Tian Yan did not answer Xu Yuan's question immediately. After thinking for a while, he softly replied:
"This happened 20,000 years ago. I don't know how the pavilion masters made decisions during this period, but there must be a reason why the Supervisory Sky Pavilion chose to let it go."
Xu Yuan chuckled lightly when he heard this, with a hint of teasing, and said:
"Destroying such a magnificent ghost mist should shake the dominance of Jiantian Pavilion, right? In other words, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. This place does not belong to Jiantian Pavilion's sphere of influence. After all, I remember that the former site of Jiantian Pavilion seems to be in Linhai. Above the top of Tianjue Mountain.”
"."
After a moment of silence, Tian Yan did not deny this answer, but admitted it calmly:
"It's possible."
"Don't you, the Jiantian Pavilion, claim to protect the human race? How could you, the Jiantian Pavilion, allow this ghost mist to grow up to this point?"
"The prerequisite for protecting the human race is to be able to survive first. There are trade-offs in everything."
Speaking of which,
Tian Yan paused for a moment, looked into Xu Yuan's eyes, and asked:
"Isn't it different in your prime minister's house?"
"."
Looking at each other familiarly,
Xu Yuan chuckled and shook his head, but also did not deny:
"really."
Tian Yan withdrew his gaze, continued to look around, and then asked in a low voice:
"Xu Yuan, do you know why I brought you to this Sword Valley to avoid being pursued by Jiantian Pavilion?"
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows:
"Why?"
Tian Yan raised the corners of his lips, smiled sweetly, raised his palms, and pointed at the surrounding white mist:
"The ghost mist can interfere with the derivation of the Yan Tian Jue. As long as we hide here, the Pavilion Masters of this generation can only deduce that we are in this ghost mist!"
