Along the way, Xiaoyue looked carefully at the incomplete but still shining colorful stone in her hand. She still couldn't believe that it could be so magical. Xiaoyue looked in disbelief, which made Mu Wangqing helplessly shake her head. She walked to her side.
Putting the spirit stone in his hand, he found that the spirit stone immediately turned dull.
"How could this happen?" Xiaoyue blinked her big eyes and was confused.
Mu Wangqing narrowed her eyes expressionlessly.
"That's because it recognizes you as its master and is a treasure in front of you, but nothing in front of me."
"Hey, don't say that. I just happened to be the master of the spirit stone. Compared with you, I'm just an ordinary person." Xiaoyue looked at the man with his eyes closed beside him, but saw him open his eyes and look straight at her.
she.
"You have never been an ordinary person."
Xiaoyue was stunned for a few seconds by his sudden words, and afterwards she felt that he was really serious. She thought it was just what he said to coax her, so she felt funny in her heart and followed him. Many years later
Looking back, I realized that he had never lied to him, but she had never believed it.
The two set out for their destination and passed many villages and towns along the way. They heard many rumors along the way, but they ignored them. When they were about to buy dry food and leave, a person's conversation caught Mu Wangqing's attention.
"Hey, have you heard? Not far away, people died in Longzhen. The appearance of death was very miserable, and the whole body turned into a mummy. It's terrifying, Zuzhen."
"Ah? Then find out who did it?"
"Are you kidding? Who dares to investigate! That's God killing people. I heard that the people who were killed were punished to death for committing treason. Every time someone dies, there will be a colorful afterglow in the sky. That's God.
is coming!"
"So scary! Then, let's leave quickly."
…
Colorful afterglow? Mu Wangqing's sharp eyes suddenly narrowed.
"You, what's wrong with you?" Xiaoyue tilted her head and looked at the man who was halfway walking in front of her. She didn't expect that he was so fascinated by thinking about things.
"Huh? What are you looking at me for?"
When Xiaoyue heard this, she immediately retorted.
"I kept calling you after I got the dry food, but you seemed to have lost your soul and showed no response. I was almost ready to use a secret weapon to wake you up."
Mu Wangqing lazily raised his eyes and looked at her up and down.
"Just you? Wait until a thousand years later."
"You, you actually despise me?" Xiaoyue looked at the man and said these words, and then left. Xiaoyue glared at his back several times unhappily. If possible, her own
His eyes could poke holes in his body.
The man kept walking westward, and Xiaoyue didn't know where he was going. But because he was still angry, he refused to ask, and he didn't say anything. After fighting back and forth, Xiaoyue was obviously defeated, and walked to
Beside him, someone asked in a bad tone.
"Where are we going this time?"
"Go to Longzhen. I heard that something happened there and someone died."
When Xiaoyue first heard it, the corners of her mouth twitched stiffly.
"Is this why you went to Long Town?"
Mu Wangqing looked at her sideways, "What else do you think?"
Xiaoyue held her arms close to her chest and looked at each other. "We are looking for the spirit stone. Don't tell me that you forgot and went to see what the fun was like?"
The man walking alone raised his eyebrows.
"When did I say go watch the fun?"
Xiaoyue opened her eyes in confusion and looked at the man.
"Didn't you just say that?"
"You are hopelessly stupid!"
Unexpectedly, this woman thought of things so straightforwardly. Mu Wangqing sighed softly and walked straight past her.
This man said these confusing words again, and Xiaoyue scratched her head in annoyance. Only later did she realize what he meant, but she was also so angry that she kept a livid face all the way.
, causing many passers-by to look at her as if she were a weirdo and avoid her.
This man, she really owed him in her previous life, always talking to her in a roundabout way!
After walking for a long time, they finally entered Long Town. Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped into this place, they became the focus of everyone. They watched the people around whispering. Xiaoyue felt something was wrong and unknowingly approached Mu Wangqing.
"Why are they so wary of us?"
The man lowered his eyes and looked at Xiaoyue tugging on his sleeve, his eyes darkened.
"They are frightened now and are cautious about everyone they see, let alone us two outsiders."
Xiaoyue groped her chin to think of something that made sense. Seeing the man staring in a certain direction, she also looked at it. It turned out that she had held his clothes in her hand at some point, and Xiaoyue immediately retracted her hand in embarrassment.
, smiled uncomfortably.
"Sorry, I'm used to dragging people around."
"It's nothing, I never cared about it."
The man curled his lips lonelyly and walked away. Xiaoyue looked at her retreating back thoughtfully, feeling that he didn't hate her touch at that moment, but that seemed to be her illusion.
Because when I looked at him again, his eyes, as quiet as lake water, were filled with a chilling indifference.
