The woman felt a little bored just holding the rabbit leg in her hand. At the same time, the indifferent attitude of the man in front of her from Juxuan City towards her also aroused her desire to win. She considers herself to be the most beautiful woman in Sirius City, and treats everyone with a frosty attitude. Whenever a man sees her, he will either look at her carefully from head to toe, or act like a gentleman, as if he is not squinting, but he still wants to sneak a few glances when no one is paying attention. It's just that the young man in front of her took the initiative to talk to him, but the other person ignored him, which made her furious.
This was perhaps the first time she felt a man's indifference. She was conceited about her beauty, but she didn't care how millions of other men admired her. She just wanted the white-faced scholar in front of her to fall in love with her.
Xiao He didn't pay attention to the disappointed look on Paya's face, roasted another rabbit and carried it back to the Juxuan City camp.
"Brother Lin, why do I see something wrong with the way Mrs. Ao looks at you?" Yu Wenjing said jokingly.
Xiao He smiled and said, "I didn't see it."
Yu Wenjing added, "Tell me, her brother has a prominent position in Tianlang City, and she herself has become Mrs. Ao of Wuyang City. Why does she look unhappy?"
Xiao He thought for a while and said disapprovingly: "It's probably another political marriage!"
"It makes sense!" Yu Wenjing nodded repeatedly, and after saying that, he fell asleep. Xiao He smiled helplessly and began to meditate. The night was extremely quiet. The followers from Juxuan City were protecting Xiao He. Everyone was waiting for dawn.
The next day it was bright and clear, and Pamu from Tianlang City stood up with an imperceptible arc at the corner of his mouth, so he woke everyone up and set off all the way north. People walked in groups of three or two, with Pamu leading his entourage at the front, followed by Ao Lin and his wife, and Yu Wenjing and Xiao He walking at the end with their Juxuan City people.
"Brother, I feel like there must be some fraud in this, right?" Yu Wenjing said in a low voice.
Xiao He also whispered in response: "Don't worry, we will take the opportunity to act." In fact, Xiao He felt at ease. He saw that everyone in Tianlang City, including Ao Lin, was at the bottleneck of the Eighteenth Realm at most, and no one was higher. Own.
"How about..." Yu Wenjing paused for a moment, then said: "Brother, you can find an opportunity to take action suddenly when he is not expecting it, kill him and then we can run away?"
Xiao He shook his head and said in denial: "No, this is not a good idea. There are so many people now. If I kill Ao Lin now, and the news is spread back to God's Domain, Wuyang City will definitely blame Juxuan City for this debt. , Unless you can kill someone invisible, you should not take action easily."
Hearing what Xiao He said, Yu Wenjing also nodded and said: "That's right, this is not the time to start a feud with Tianlang City."
"It's really not necessary. Let's see if Ao Lin will be alone today!" Xiao He said.
In this way, everyone kept moving forward in silence, and in only half a day, they reached the edge of the giant pit.
"Fellow Taoists, if we go further, we will find the huge pit. Monsters are common here, so please be extra careful." Pamu reminded.
"This is not a remote area. How come no one discovered it before?" Xiao He asked.
Pamu's expression remained unchanged, and he explained with a smile: "If there is no special need for the secrets of Warcraft here, Taoist friends from various cities will generally not take the initiative to set foot here, not to mention that this place is close to the center of Tongtian Fortress, and it is also rumored to be the last ancient Where the sacred tombs appear, the harsh climate is more violent and dense, making it even more prohibitive."
"I see, that makes sense." Xiao He agreed with a smile.
"It seems that the spies in Tianlang City are very capable!" Yu Wenjing also said.
Pamu smiled and said: "We do have a few brothers on this trip who are familiar with the terrain and climate of Tongtian Fortress. If they hadn't worked hard, we wouldn't have discovered an ancient battlefield here."
Everyone laughed and moved forward. A few scattered monsters were dealt with by the people from Tianlang City who were walking at the front. Since the Tianlang City spies had been here once before and cleared a relatively secluded path, everyone did not encounter too many magical beasts before reaching the center.
Just when everyone thought everything was safe, a loud noise passed through the sky. Everyone was shocked and looked up. There seemed to be a huge strange bird with a wingspan so wide that it could almost block the sun. plunder
It even brought up a hurricane when it passed through the sky. Before anyone could react, the big bird swooped down and pounced on a person from Tianlang City. Its huge beak instantly picked him up and dropped him in mid-air. Poor that man, before he could stabilize his body and deal with it, he was shot through the chest by the yellow light spit out from the strange bird's mouth.
In the blink of an eye, one person died. However, this time also allowed everyone to see clearly the appearance of the strange bird.
"This is the Wind and Thunder Winged Dragon. It has a cultivation level equivalent to the Nineteenth Realm. Everyone, be careful!" Pamu reminded loudly.
Upon seeing this, Yu Wenjing immediately drew out his sword and was about to stand up, but was held down by Xiao He. Yu Wenjing looked at Xiao He in confusion. Seeing him looking at him seriously, he shook his head slightly and had no choice but to give up. At this time, several people from Tianlang City had set up a formation, and each of them had a strong crossbow on their waist. Xiao He took a closer look and saw that the strong crossbow seemed to be similar to the crossbows of the gods under his subordinates, and he was thoughtful in his heart.
While thinking, several people had already taken action, and several crossbow arrows with chains tied to their tails were shot instantly. As a few sounds of breaking through the air were heard, several crossbow arrows accurately hit the weakest part of the pterosaur's wings. At the same time, Ao Lin, with quick eyes and quick hands, also flew into the air, almost at the same height as the pterosaur. While making a hand and chanting a mantra, a very fierce flame shot out from his fingers, instantly surrounding the pterosaur.
Xiao He saw it and knew that the pterosaur was not seriously injured by the flames, but if he used Dragon Heart Fire now, it would be difficult to hide his identity in the future. While he was thinking, the pterosaur struggled to break free, and the two people from Sirius City who had no time to escape were directly carried into the air by the pterosaur, flying dozens of meters away.
In this situation, Juxuan City had no choice but to take action. Xiao He showed no fear on his face and flew after the pterosaur with the giant sword given by Yu Wenjian in his hand. Paya looked at the pale yellow figure of Xiao He, who was holding a huge sword and looked extremely brave. Her heart was filled with spring waves again, and she seemed to be making some plans in her heart. At this moment, Ao Lin had fallen back to the ground, breathing heavily.
"What are you looking at?" Ao Lin asked, glancing sideways at Paya who was entranced.
Paya's face changed color and she said, "I have never seen such a huge monster before!"
Ao Lin said: "That's natural. Didn't you listen to what your brother said? This is a pterosaur of the 19th realm. Even if we work together, we can't kill it."
"Brother Yuwen!" Pamu shouted towards Yuwen Jing; "Let your eldest brother come back. It's too dangerous to be alone. Let's find another way out!"
Yu Wenjing was also extremely worried at the moment and was looking in the direction where Xiao He left.
"It's too late. This man is really reckless. Did he want to kill the pterosaur by himself? He must have died!" Ao Lin said.
Paya was shocked when she heard this. She opened her mouth wide and quickly covered it with her hands, saying, "No...it can't be right?"
"What's wrong?" Ao Lin glanced at Paya angrily and said, "Quickly take out your healing medicine and give it to me. I just consumed too much mana."
"Oh!" Pa Ya was disgusted in her heart, but did not show it. She took it out and fed it to Ao Lin's mouth.
"Back!" A cultivator from Tianlang City who was sitting on the ground suddenly stood up and pointed at a small dot in the sky.
"What?" Ao Lin also stood up quickly.
Everyone saw the little dot flying closer and closer, it was none other than Xiao He. He was still holding the giant sword, but his light yellow clothes were stained with blood.
"Brother, are you injured?" Yu Wenjing asked with concern.
Xiao He forced a smile and said, as if he was weak, "Yes! It's a pity that I wasn't good at learning and let that beast escape!"
"Ouch!" Pamukjing exclaimed and said, "Little brother, please don't be so reckless in the future. This is a nineteenth level monster! It's good that you can come back alive. By the way, brother's cultivation level What’s the realm?”
Xiao He smiled and said: "I have just passed the eighteenth realm!"
"Too reckless, too reckless!" Pam said, shaking his head repeatedly. Immediately, in order to prevent the pterodactyl from counterattack, he asked the Sirius City spies to take the lead, changed the direction and took a detour, found a secluded place to rest, and planned to stop here for a night before continuing on his way. Yu Wenjing looked at Xiao He and seemed to understand something in his heart, showing a smile that was not easily noticed by everyone.
It's one night,
Xiao He was lying alone in the tent, and suddenly a young woman appeared outside the gauze tent.
"Young Master Lin, can I come in?"
When Xiao He heard this, he realized that the person coming was none other than Paya.
Xiao He frowned and replied, "Mrs. Ao, it's so late, don't you need to accompany your husband?"
As if she didn't hear Xiao He's rejection, Paya opened the screen door and walked in. Looking at Xiao He lying on the bed in plain clothes, she asked, "Young hero, are you making fun of me?"
"Why did Mrs. Ao say this?" Xiao He replied as he lay on the ground without moving.
"You young hero, you made a smart decision, can't you see that this is a political marriage?" Paya's tone was a bit disappointed.
Xiao He replied: "You are all nobles of the main city, so this arrangement is inevitable."
Pa Ya said disappointedly: "Actually, I have never liked my brother's arrangement. It's just that my brother wants to take the position of general of Tianlang City, and Ao Lin needs a force to support his position in Wuyang City. The two of them have different opinions. Get what you need, in this marriage, I am the only pawn that no one cares about."
"My deepest sympathy." Xiao He didn't care and replied casually while lying on the ground.
Pa Ya was very happy to hear that. After smiling, she saw Xiao He's Taoist robe hanging next to her and asked, "What's going on?"
"I was injured by the pterosaur during the day, leaving a lot of blood stains." Xiao He replied.
"Shall I help you wash up?" After Paya finished speaking, she put away her robe without waiting for Xiao He to stand up and refuse, then took out a box of medicine from her arms and placed it next to Xiao He, saying, "I just saw you. I was injured during the day, and I planned to come and give you a bottle of healing elixir before leaving, but I didn’t want to say so many words.”
After Paya finished speaking, she turned around and left, leaving Xiao He lying there, confused.
He didn't see Paya walking out of the tent, holding Xiao He's Taoist robe and sniffing it several times.
