not bound

"How long?" came the voice again from behind.

"There are still about ten miles to go." Mo Zelan whispered, "But the road may be difficult."

Everything was silent, and the low and charming voice came out along the humid air, with a faint feeling of reverberation.

"Ah."

Xue Banxia didn't close her eyes once along the way.

Although they have known Mo Zelan for a while, because the relationship between the two of them did not involve any important matters, they were just drinking and chatting and bickering, even if they knew that this person was disguised, it didn't matter.

This time he popped up out of nowhere and said that Qiniang entrusted him to be a guide, did he really think he was a fool?

Qiniang started wandering in the yellow sands of the West Sea when she was a beautiful and cute little girl. She knocked down countless men with ulterior motives in the process of growing up. How can you ask this person to help you when you don't know the details of the person.

"The place in the abyss of Minggu is almost like the scorching sun rift during the day. It is so hot that it makes people panic. The wind is so dry that it can scrape off the rocks layer by layer. The layers of red rocks are blown by the wind like ghost caves. There is fire. Lizards also have burrowers, but they're huge."

Like a competent guide, Mozelan began to introduce the destination ahead.

"It becomes very cold at night, and sometimes there will be heavy snow and hail. The reptiles will go back to rest at this time, and the ones that come out are all the strange beasts that hide in the ground during the day, and the smaller ones like to eat the ones hidden in the cracks. Poisonous flowers and weeds, the big ones like to come out in groups and like to eat the smaller ones, and the bigger ones come out alone to eat the big ones, as for the poisonous flowers and weeds, they like to eat their corpses."

"It feels like a mess here."

"Yeah, why isn't it like this? Human beings are like this, so are animals. One layer eats another, fighting for destruction, reincarnation, for desire, for survival."

"Well, I always want to find a quieter place to live."

"Axue, although you are young, you are a person with a story." Mo Zelan's charming ending rose slightly, like a gorgeous flower deliberately luring small animals to take the bait. If you take the bait, they will eat you.

It's a pity that Xue Banxia is a person who doesn't like this set of tricks to seduce little girls. It's not that he doesn't understand, but that he only listens to the true meaning of your words, and he can ignore the beautiful packaging of your words.It's like dancing in front of a blind person, or playing a piano in front of a tone-deaf person. You are blind for nothing.

"Compared to a mature and stable old man like Boss Mo, Xue really seems to have no background."

Mazelland:  …

It seems that this person is still angry about being robbed of the wine, really...

Kind of cute.

Mo Zelan reined in the horse, and the black horse let out a long neigh, and suddenly raised its front hooves, but dared not come down.Even the light glow of the nightgrass could not illuminate the huge crack in front of it, the black abyss was silent here, just like the huge mouth opened by an ancient beast, bottomless and terrifying.

Mo Zelan dismounted, guided the black horse to a few steps to the side, and then stood on the edge of the cliff, spreading his hands.

"Guests from afar, welcome to the abyss of the Valley of the Dead."

Of course it wasn't Mozelan's voice, although he wanted to say it in a smug tone.

Xue Banxia crushed the glass ball containing the nightgrass almost as soon as the word "far" sounded, and quickly jumped off the horse's back. The silvery white light quietly went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

At this time, at this place, when neither of them noticed, the incoherent voice suddenly sounded in midair, no matter how you look at it, it would not be the style of a hospitable host.

When Xue Banxia walked back and forth silently and quickly, the road retreated several feet, and Mo Zelan's white figure also retreated, leaning against Xue Banxia back to back.This is the most reliable point of support when you can't figure out the details of the other party and your own situation is too bad.

The night was as cool as water, and the temperature behind him gave people stability. Xue Banxia listened to his fast heartbeat, and felt that he had not lost his composure like today for many years.

"Doctor Xue, it's really hidden." Boss Mo said in Xue Banxia's ear sideways.

"You're not bad either." Xue Banxia replied.

"Hee hee, why did the guest hide?" Another voice sounded like a hoarse woman.

"He's afraid of us," replied the previous voice.

"Guests, don't be afraid!" The voice like a woman continued.

he?

Xue Banxia and Mo Zelan touched each other's arms tacitly. It seems that the other party did not confirm that they are two people, so it can only be judged according to the number of horses. Xue Banxia should be the one who has not been exposed.

Xue Banxia continued to retreat far away without making a sound, while Mo Zelan took up the important task of communication.

Xue Banxia looked at the idiot who insisted on wearing white clothes to expose himself in the dark, thinking about how to laugh when he went back.

"I'm lost, I don't know what's on the other side?" Mo Zelan's voice spread far away. This time, there was no such charming ending. I wonder if the voice just now was male or female, and where it came from.

Sure enough, this man who pretended to be a weak uncle and forcibly rode on the road was hiding something!Hearing this voice, this internal force is still a master, almost underestimated him.

The other party who seemed to be confused paused for a while before continuing: "If you don't mind, you can rest for a night before going on the road."

Mo Zelan suddenly relaxed her body and paced forward.Xue Banxia, ​​who was several feet away, was still lying in place with a dormant movement. Of course, he would not think that Mo Zelan was moved, and he would not think that the other party had such good intentions to keep a passer-by of unknown origin overnight.

hit the road?Of course it is the way to Huangquan.

Sure enough, Xue Banxia saw Mo Zelan wretchedly rubbing her little goatee and said: "Then why are you so embarrassed? I still have a beautiful wife who is not yet married, so I dare not make mistakes. Alright. As for going on the road, I don’t know how to get there, so why don’t you bother me to go on the road first and help you see the scenery?”

"Bastard!" The indifferent voice said angrily.

"Shit!" The hoarse woman's voice followed suit.

The echoes collided back and forth in the abyss, making people's ears hurt.

Xue Banxia secretly smiled, it felt good to see Mo Zelan scolding others with anger.

However, his smile immediately froze at the corner of his mouth, and Mo Zelan's relaxed body suddenly tensed up.

A palpitating beast roar shocked the entire abyss!

Then the second sound, the third sound, and the fourth sound came one after another, and the four pairs of bright eyes like lanterns gradually approached.

"WTF?"

"It's the beast-riding clan! Run!" Mo Zelan moved to Xue Banxia's side almost instantly, tugged at Xue Banxia's sleeve, and ran towards the direction opposite to the source of the sound.

"Is it the normal-sized beast you mentioned? What are you afraid of when you are only four?" Xue Banxia wanted to shake off Mo Zelan's hand, but found that he was holding it so tightly, except for breaking his fingers or cutting off his own sleeve. There was no way to tear it apart.

"It's the big one, the biggest one. One is enough for you, A Xue, to eat for a month!" Mo Zelan still didn't forget to tease Xue Banxia's thin body in this situation.

Xue Banxia gave up the needless struggle, grabbed Mo Zelan's sleeve with his backhand, pulled the distance between the two of them, pressed Mo Zelan's head hard, and then kicked him on the hollow of his knee as if waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, Mo Zelan staggered Reeling, just avoiding a protruding rock and a hole in the ground.

"Axue, did you do it on purpose?" Mo Zelan stared at Xue Banxia. Although he couldn't see anything in the dark night, he still firmly believed that this would make Xue Banxia feel his unhappiness.

Xue Banxia curled up the corners of her mouth, but said nothing.

I am inexplicably happy seeing you like this, but I am even happier if you are not happy.

After a few times, Mo Zelan also got used to letting Xue Banxia run away with her.

It is also Xue Banxia who can see things in the dark, otherwise it would be impossible for the two of them to go down to the abyss without any light.

Relying on their being in the dark and not walking very slowly, the two of them got rid of the pursuers for the time being.

Just as he was about to take a rest, Xue Banxia felt that Mo Zelan beside him suddenly froze again.

"What? I'm afraid of not being able to see it? Do you want my brother to hold you?" Xue Banxia smiled brightly, but it was a pity that Mo Zelan couldn't see it.

"Hush! Don't play! Quick! Tell me where there is a crack, preferably just as wide as the two of us can fit in?" Mo Zelan covered Xue Banxia's mouth, and said almost angrily.

"About three feet to the left." Xue Banxia pulled the hand off his face.

Mo Zelan dragged Xue Banxia to the left without any hesitation, one fell, and the two fell directly into the crack.

It was too quiet all around, and the sound of "chi chi" cracking the silk was very clear.

The rift was too deep, Xue Banxia was able to take the time to look up at the top when he was falling, a big red anaconda bigger than a cow was peeping into the rift with big eyes, and suddenly felt a little scared.

"Why didn't I see it? You know?" Xue Banxia led the way in the narrow gap, his clothes were torn a lot.

"What the eyes see is not everything here. Its color is almost the same as that of the rock, and it lies motionless on the ground. Even if you see it, you will only think it is a rock. In my eyes, everything here is It's black, and all my actions are based on my senses. Feeling the existence of huge living creatures will create a great sense of crisis. Brother Ashue, you are not careful enough." Mo Zelan said solemnly with her hands behind her back.

"Taught." Xue Banxia nodded.

Mo Zelan was a little surprised, he was ready to be kicked away by Xue Banxia, ​​but he didn't expect the other party to reply like this, and he was even more disturbed.

Is he angry?

It's a pity that Mo Zelan didn't have time to explain.

"what!!!!!!"

"Help!!!!!"

A hoarse cry for help came from the other side of the chasm.

All of a sudden, the beast roared in the abyss, and the anaconda left at an incredible speed, crawling towards the direction of the sound.

At first, Xue Banxia thought it was a conspiracy of the beast control clan, but if you listen carefully, you will find that it is a cry for help when your life is forced to the end by external forces, and you are struggling desperately but unable to do anything, but you will not give up at all.

Not a conspiracy.

Without hesitation, he stopped and looked back at Mo Zelan.

"I'm lost anyway, why don't you go back and have a look?"

Mo Zelan couldn't see Xue Banxia's expression, but felt that although the person in front of him was asking, his heart had already flown there.

Isn't it the most important thing to find the flame lotus and leave quickly?Meddling is not my style.

Mo Zelan thought so in her mind, but when she said it, it became: "Of course everything is done according to your wishes, Axue, I am just a guide."

At the end, Mo Zelan sighed in his heart, since he was out of control and was about to run all the way to find the person in front of him, he was nosy, and he still maintained his own style.

"Thank you," Xue Banxia's tone was full of gratitude, and immediately added: "Boss Mo, you are really knowledgeable."

The witty Boss Mo touched his nose, and had no choice but to lean sideways to let Xue Banxia go ahead.

The author has something to say:

Mo Zelan: It's rare to be able to be alone with A Xue, but so many people get in the way, I'm so unhappy.

Xue Banxia: It's rare to be alone with the monsters, but there is one person who is always in the way, so unhappy.
