Mu Yu laughed playfully, holding Xuan Jie's wrist and running through the mountains, no longer curious about his identity.
Xuanjie was healed by the smile in front of him, and his messy thoughts returned to calm.
At this moment, the force that always affects his state of mind stabilized. Xuanjie is now his original self, with no obsession with the world.
After the murderous combat meeting came to an end, the Kaybury Line of Defense began a new round of pre-war preparations.
The disastrous defeat of the demons last time doesn't mean anything. As long as there is another confrontation, humans will still be the weaker side.
Xuanjie used special means to reserve more than a hundred explosive bombs sealed in jars. They only need to be exposed to air to explode and produce large-scale fires.
During this period, the leaders of Bo Li also sent people to sneak in in an attempt to steal the formula, but they never wanted to directly anger Xuan Jie.
The next day, Winter City's soldiers evacuated the mine in an orderly manner, giving up the place they had tried so hard to infiltrate.
This move shocked several leaders at the same time. They never thought that Xuan Jie would act so casually and ignore the overall situation.
So the leaders' meeting was held in the evening, and Xuan Jie sat calmly in the tent. No matter how many invitation letters he sent, he threw them into the brazier without even opening them.
The only thing he had read was the letter sent by Muxue, which was the only paper envelope on Xuanjie's desk.
Along with the howling of the cold wind, the sound of footsteps stopped in front of the tent, and then the familiar smell was brought to the nose by the wind.
"We're drinking tea. Have we had any guests before me?"
At the tea table, Xuan Jie picked up the cup and blew on it. There was a cup of steaming tea on the seat opposite.
"Not really." He took a sip of tea and put the cup on the table. "Besides bothering you to come here, do they have any other means?"
The visitor was Mu Yu. Xuanjie had already expected her to come and had prepared tea in advance.
Mu Yu was not polite, sat down, picked up the tea cup and drank.
"The tea is good, but you should understand why I came here."
"Of course I do," Xuan Jie nodded, "It's just that there are some things that you don't need to waste time on. Rather than talking nonsense with those guys, I would rather sit down and have tea with you."
Due to the climate, tea is expensive in this entire region, and most of it is transported by merchants from elsewhere.
Even in Black Bear Mountain or Winter City, tea is not a common commodity, and good quality is even rarer.
Although the last shopping trip with Mu Yu was not smooth, Xuanjie found a stall selling tea. The quantity was not large but it was enough to drink for a while.
"I...I'm not used to drinking tea, but it has a mellow aroma when I taste it carefully. I tasted it at Grandpa Elder's place when I was in Black Bear Mountain."
After briefly mentioning what happened in the conference room, Mu Yu didn't mention it at the tea table, as if the matter didn't exist.
However, the matter that Xuanjie was invited to discuss over would inevitably be mentioned. In the final analysis, it was still related to the garrisoning of the defense line.
"By the way, I heard that you took the people out of the mountain and stopped making explosive bombs, right..."
"That's right," Xuan Jie didn't hide the matter, picked up the teapot and filled their cups with tea.
"Why! Is it because of the offense caused by those villains like Bo Li? If so, I...please put the overall situation first!"
The overall situation...is the most important thing! Haha, I am really starting to look more and more like her.
Putting the tea cup on the table, he broke away from his past thoughts. Those things were already a thing of the past for Xuan Jie at this moment.
He took out a piece of paper from his pocket, placed it on the flat table and pushed it next to Mu Yu's tea cup.
"Here is the recipe for making explosive bombs. The last step is to inject enough stable fire element power.
It is recommended that you send it over after mixing and let me help with this step. This is not a deliberate concealment but because your ability is not enough to integrate the fire element into it."
As an elemental god, he can easily suppress the release of the fire element, seal it in an altar so that it explodes when it encounters air, and turns into a fire snake that burns all things when exposed to open fire.
The recipe...is given to us!
"And the most important thing is, if you want to try it yourself, just reduce the dose to prevent... eh!"
When Xuan Jie, who was sitting at the tea table, was explaining the precautions, he suddenly felt something rush onto him, softly...
Mu Yu...
"Bang", the back chair hit the ground with a crisp sound.
When the guard outside the door heard the noise, he quickly turned around and lifted the cloth to rush in.
"Sir! Are you okay...?"
Xuanjie still remained sitting on the overturned chair, Mu Yu leaned against his chest like a bird, and the two kinds of hair, black and white, really met at close range at this moment.
Seeing the scene of two people hugging each other and lying on the ground in the room, the two guards stopped talking and quickly turned around and returned to their posts, pretending that nothing had happened.
"Thank you...Xuanjie!"
Her delicate face rested on Xuan Jie's chest, Mu Yu closed her eyes and did not get up, a happy and stable smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She believed that Xuanjie's public refusal to hand over the production methods and then his private handing over to her was a response.
In fact, Xuanjie didn't even bother with such a method. There were two reasons for handing it over this time.
First, the Kite Spirit belongs to Black Bear Mountain and is in alliance with Winter City.
Secondly, after communicating with Mu Yu for so long, she has recognized her qualifications as a partner. As for whether there is a relationship between men and women, it depends on how Xuan Jie thinks about it.
At least at this moment, being suppressed underneath him, Xuanjie never made a sound or made any movement, as if he was afraid of frightening the kite.
Mu Yu...
With a beautiful woman in his arms, how could Xuan Jie calm down and let her settle down in a short time?
I don't know how long the atmosphere was silent, but it was finally broken by Mu Yu's words.
"Can I...can I call you Ajie like that girl did before..."
"Of course," Xuan Jie responded softly.
Upon hearing this affirmative reply, a smile as sweet as sugar spread across Mu Yu's face.
"What's the relationship between that girl and you? Last time I saw you two shopping together on the street."
What's the relationship...
"She..." After a moment of silence, Xuan Jie closed his eyes and didn't know how to answer.
What's the relationship? It seems that even I don't know how to answer this question.
Old friend? Companion? Or... friend.
After being silent for a long time, Mu Yu, as a kite spirit, naturally felt the hostility in Xuan Jie's heart, and the smile on his face quickly dissipated and he became alert.
"What's wrong..."
Opening his eyes and looking at the worried Mu Yu, Xuan Jie shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's nothing, just some unforgettable past events. Get up first..."
"Sir! Potter and I just went out fishing and had a lot of harvest. We cooked some grilled fish and sent them to you for you to try!"
"Captain! Shhh... keep your voice down, sir. It's not convenient for him to see you right now."
"Inconvenient? What can adults do in there?"
"Hey! Lord Kailibos, I beg you to keep your voice down... a little bit."
Before the guard could finish speaking, the tent flap was lifted.
Mu Yu walked out quickly, her clothes intact and her face covered in crimson, and she didn't even look at them as she passed by.
Forehead...
Seeing her panic, Potter and Kailipos, who were stunned on the spot and didn't know what to do, couldn't help but look at each other.
At this time, men often only need one look to confirm their respective suspicions.
The two of them did not speak, and glanced at the guard with surprised eyes.
The guard also said nothing and nodded calmly.
"It's over!"
"What's over?"
As soon as Porter finished speaking, Xuan Jie, who was covered in black armor, walked out of the tent.
"No...no, it's nothing!"
Porter waved his hands to signal, and Kailibos forced a smile the whole time.
"Nothing? But I remember you said you wanted to treat me to grilled fish."
There are even grilled fish! I think adults really want to grill us!
"Uh...hehe, next time...definitely next time, definitely next time!"
After saying that, he wanted to leave, but Xuan Jie sneered and hugged his shoulders.
"No, I haven't eaten grilled fish for a long time."
The two of them were sweating profusely, their facial muscles even beating as they sat down in panic, and their heartbeats accelerated a lot.
After all, his arms couldn't hold his thighs up, and the two of them were forcibly taken away to grill fish.
After leaving the camp, Mu Yu recalled what happened just now and couldn't help but panic.
"How could I do such a thing! It's so shameful..."
I felt particularly at ease when I lay on my chest, so I didn’t think too much about other things.
After learning that Xuan Jie had given him the treasure-like explosive bomb formula, Mu Yu's love was completely released.
The passivity hidden in my heart evolved into real action, and then I got dizzy and rushed forward.
In this intimate contact, both parties felt that their current behavior was a bit excessive.
In a sense, this should be a good start, at least both of them know what the other person is thinking.
Although Xuanjie did not make it clear, Mu Yu, as a kite spirit, could clearly feel that he did not rule out what he had just done.
The world is uncertain and in times of war and chaos, love is often just a bubble. When it expands to a certain extent, it will burst.
This was the case before, and it is not necessarily possible to escape this restriction now.
From the relaxed performance of Xuanjie grilling fish in front of the campfire, we can know that he really regards the memories in his mind as just memories.
I never thought that the script from that year might happen again.
Is the close contact between the two a new beginning, or a hug before parting?
Snow slowly fell from the sky accompanied by the cold wind.
They were scattered on the ground, wrapped in a layer of white clothes, as if they were afraid that the land would get sick and so they urgently covered them with quilts.
The battlefield that had been filled with fighting had long been covered by the snow, leaving no trace. It would be difficult to detect the corpses under the snow without personal experience.
Just when everyone thought the blizzard would calm down, a new battle began in the snow-covered mountains.
"Dong, dong, dong~"
The bell on the top of the mountain rang loudly, and the soldiers rushed to tell each other that they were tired of dealing with it, and gathered in front of the front to wait for dispatch.
The demon's attack consisted of a hundred thousand troops appearing collectively on the right defensive line. After being investigated by Yuan Ling and the scouts of each army, no trace of the demon was found elsewhere.
As a result, several leaders of the coalition forces were concentrated on the defense line where Xuan Jie was stationed, in the midst of a raging snowstorm.
