As a friend, you only need to provide enough companionship. You have to walk the road yourself to gain experience.
Time just fell silent in the wind, and only the sound of swaying branches and leaves still sounded in my ears.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and kept silent. The knot in their hearts was slowly opened by their companionship, and the girl's heart was also opened along with it.
The setting sun at dusk shines on the cliff and merges with the surroundings. The rustling sound covers the chirping of the birds, and the breath is slightly dull.
It's just that in this peaceful painting, the only thing missing is the two people sitting on the edge of the cliff.
The expansion plan was officially communicated to the army, and some people with connections began to take advantage of the opportunity to hoard surplus food, causing an uproar in the market.
In order to calm the situation, Xuanjie planned to return to Tianheng Mountain to transport some grain.
Originally, this task was carried out by A Ping, but now he still has one thing that he has not yet completed.
"Are you ready? It's time to go," A Ping knocked on Xuan Jie's door early in the morning.
Her emotions were not affected by the war. They were already in troubled times, and their acceptance of this aspect was far greater than A Cai's.
The dilapidated small wooden door opened with a creak, crumbling as if it was about to collapse.
Whether in Tianheng Mountain or Guiliyuan, Xuanjie's accommodation environment was getting worse every time.
"I know, let's set off first. We are pressed for time and must transport the food in advance."
The scene on the streets was not much different from usual, but... the faces of the people were obviously filled with sadness.
Food emergencies and military drills are all precursors to war.
On the way, Xuanjie didn't reply to these glances too much. The thoughts in his mind were very messy...very messy.
Because this scene had happened before, his decision was to comply with the wishes of his people and give up fighting for the main road, thus putting the city-state in crisis.
In fact, the people's way of looking at problems is very front-line. Their level of thinking is only self-centered. As a leader, you should have your own judgment.
If the decision back then was to take the initiative, would the outcome have changed?
Xuan Jie raised his head and looked into the sky, reflecting the bright sun in his confused eyes.
The noisy market noise around him failed to wake him up until he was tapped by a hand on the back of his shoulder.
"Hi! Ajie, where are you going?"
Sigh...why does she jump out every time the atmosphere is heightened?
Xuan Jie sighed secretly, knowing the identity of the person coming even without turning around.
Before he could adjust his mood and speak, A Ping on the side started to explain, "Of course we are going to carry out the mission, you should just stay in the city!"
There was some impatience in his tone. Although he deliberately tried to hide it, his emotions still leaked out a little.
"That's it..." A Cai showed a smile on her face and slowly walked forward to A Ping.
Those dark eyes were wandering around A Ping, as if they were plotting something.
"You...what are you going to do?"
A Ping leaned back and took a few steps, her light blue eyes full of confusion and panic.
"Hey, Ah Ping, why are you looking so scared? I won't hurt you," after the words fell, the two girls hugged each other tightly.
Ah Cai hugged Ah Ping's arm, causing her panicked face to turn a little red in surprise.
"It's such a long journey, so let me accompany my good sisters on the journey!"
"Hey! No...don't bother me anymore!"
"How can you say that spending time with a good friend is troublesome? It's not troublesome at all!"
So both eyes turned to Xuan Jie at the same time, and he seemed to have expected it and had already sneaked ahead while they were talking non-stop.
After feeling the cold and hot gazes from behind, his steps stopped abruptly, and his brain was working rapidly to think of a solution.
"Uh...hehe, the weather is very good today. If you don't hurry up, you'll be out in the sun!"
After deliberately saying this in a high pitched voice, Xuan Jie sped up and left here.
Upon seeing this, Ah Cai found the steps and quickly took Ah Ping's hand and chased her up.
"Let's go quickly, we're really going to be basking in the sun as we drag you on!"
Huh?
At this time, A Ping finally figured out that the other party wanted to go together from the beginning.
The slapstick scene was clearly seen by Morax on the roof, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face inadvertently.
But how long can this smile last? There is never a winner in a war, no matter how little beauty is lost, this is an unstoppable failure.
In the bright night sky, the howling wind blew past the ears of the three of them, and they were flying towards Tianheng Mountain at a speed far exceeding that of birds.
The surrounding environment was relatively peaceful, and there was no news of large-scale wars on the road.
Just when Xuanjie thought he would arrive at the city-state so peacefully, the scene that caught his eye in the distance completely stunned him.
It was a land full of swords. Since it was still far away, only a piece of scorched earth and weapons scattered on the ground could be seen.
There are short swords stuck in the black soil, spears standing in the cracks of the rocks, and shields with obvious cracks torn apart, which are lying quietly on the ruins.
Obviously, this was one of the battlefields not long ago, and it was an area where countless people lost their lives.
Xuan Jie glanced at A Cai next to him. She hadn't noticed anything strange in front of her, and was humming a cheerful song.
We can't let her see this scene, otherwise the atmosphere on the road will be depressed again.
After thinking about it, Xuanjie reached out his hand and covered Ah Cai's eyes from behind.
"Wow! Ajie, what are you doing? I can't see the road..."
"Don't wander around. There are no obstacles in the air. What are you afraid of? I will control the direction."
Ah Cai regained her composure and tried to free herself from the hand covering her eyes with both hands, but Xuan Jie held it tightly.
"Ouch! What on earth are you going to do!"
"Haha, I'll let you see the scenery later," Xuan Jie responded with a smile, not noticing the other gaze beside him.
As the distance to the battlefield narrowed, towering trees began to grow on the battlefield that was originally full of wasteland.
The big branches are lush and leafy. In addition to the control of the elemental gods, what's more, the land is inherently fertile.
When they got closer, Xuan Jie's hand was pulled off, and A Cai saw the scenery specially prepared for her.
Towering trees rise from the ground, and their lush branches and leaves block the view, but there is still one very important thing that has been ignored.
When her eyes were blindfolded, A Cai would instinctively expand the sensing range, especially after noticing that Xuan Jie was using power.
In this case, how could we not discover the wasteland?
"Wow! This place is so beautiful. Can Ajie give it to me?"
Her words were full of surprise, and her excitement overwhelmed her inner worries, leaving no trace of her emotions exposed.
"I think the scenery on the road is too monotonous, so I thought of changing the environment. You can like it."
As soon as Xuan Jie finished speaking, a voice rang out from beside him, and a cold air rushed into his heart, making him shudder.
