Journey to the Rose

Ruan Xi understood what Lu Zhenghe said.

Brain buzzing.

He didn't wake up a little until a cool night wind blew from the desert.

He turned his head and pretended to look around, tried his best to hide his strange emotions, and asked bravely, "Then do you know where he is?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhenghe was startled, and took a deep look at Ruan Xi, as if trying to catch something.After a while, he put down the wine bottle that touched the corner of his lips, scraped the wine off his lips with the mouth of the bottle, and said in a very depressed and disappointed tone: "I don't know...so I need to find him. "

"Are you looking for that prophet? Or your omega?"

"Prophet."

"What about your omega, are you missing?"

"omega..."

Lu Zhenghe smiled, but did not speak.

He used to want to look for it, but now he suddenly felt that it didn't seem so important to find it or not.Even, in the haze of alcohol blending into his brain, he wanted to wildly guess whether his omega would be lucky enough to be close in front of him.

He remembered the photo in Ruan Xi's bag again, and he didn't know how to ask, or whether he should ask.Everything about Ruan Xi needs to be cautious for him now.

On the other side, Ruan Xi was thinking, what is the purpose of Lu Zhenghe looking for the prophet?

Do you want to lift the curse?

Why should it be lifted?Is this also a curse?

It's true that Lu Zhenghe can't remember himself, but...what if he is the destined omega.Or is it possible that the other side of the curse is lost memory.If once the curse is lifted, will Lu Zhenghe never remember himself?

Ruan Xi rolled her eyes and cast her foggy eyes on Lu Zhenghe's face, "Lu Zhenghe, have you ever been in love?"

"No. What about you?" Lu Zhenghe turned against the guest.

Hearing his question, Ruan Xi's two black and delicate eyebrows frowned slightly, and frowned into a very serious arc.

He moved his butt very impolitely, sat closer to Lu Zhenghe, and lowered his voice, "People all over the mainland say that I am already a husband." It seemed that he was whispering something that was extremely secretive in the world.

"I know," Lu Zhenghe said with a low smile, "but your wedding hasn't been held yet, so according to the process, the marriage between Abze City and Zenith City should be regarded as not yet completed, although this is already a major event known all over the land. You Just forget about it for a while, okay?"

"..."

Ruan Xi opened his eyes again, staring at Lu Zhenghe for a long while, the sparkling lake surface in his eyes.

After a long time, he responded slowly and softly: "Okay."

Lu Zhenghe looked worriedly at the wine bottle that was about to bottom out on the ground, "Are you still drinking? You don't look well."

"I drink very well. By the way, what are the characteristics of your omega? It's a long journey, and I'll help you pay attention." Ruan Xi took another sip of wine.

Like the magma flowing out after a volcanic eruption, the wine burned and flowed into the stomach all the way.

It burned so vigorously and so recklessly that he lost everything.

It's over. Generally speaking, people who say they hold a good drinker don't have much drinking ability.

While thinking, Lu Zhenghe recalled the scene when he met the prophet.

At that time, the prophet looked at him with a smile, and the emotion in his eyes was very meaningful, as if he had said everything, but he seemed to have said nothing.

The only clue is only one sentence:

——He is the most special person on this land.

Over the years, in the accumulated sleep dreams, Lu Zhenghe vaguely remembered that his omega was a male, with a flower-shaped birthmark in the center of his back, shaped like a rose, ruby ​​red, and a small one.That may be a symbol of destiny.

The curse also says--

His omega will suffer because of him and will die before him.

"What are you thinking? Tell me quickly." Ruan Xi urged in a low voice.

His patience ran out, and he suspected he was drunk.

But fortunately, he could still hear the distant wind and the nearby insects.

"He..." Lu Zhenghe choked out a word.

Ruan Xi hurriedly said, "Huh?"

Seeing that Ruan Xi was acting uncharacteristically and still in such a hurry, Lu Zhenghe suddenly couldn't speak, and simply changed the direction of his words: "He should be very cute."

"Oh." After Ruan Xi heard this, she was so angry that she wanted to jump up and pinch Lu Zhenghe's face.

Of course it's cute!

After all, my omega is cute no matter how you look at it.

Lu Zhenghe slowed down his drinking, shook the bottle at Ruan Xi, and said proudly, "Let's have another drink."

Ruan Xi agreed: "Okay."

Clink glasses, and the two drink heavily.

Lu Zhenghe saw that his originally pale face was now much ruddy, so he asked him: "Is it still cold after drinking?"

"It's not cold anymore," Ruan Xi smiled, "Actually, I just want to drink."

The wind above the desert is blowing this way again.

Ruan Xi couldn't drink anymore, he threw the empty wine bottle on the sand aside, the crystal clear glass bottle soon sank slightly due to its own weight.He squinted his eyes, got into the warm quilt, bent his knees, arched his back, and slept like a baby curled up in the mother's body.

Before going to bed, Ruan Xi said seriously: "Good night, Lu Zhenghe."

"Good night, Ruan Xi."

Lu Zhenghe was also sleeping beside him, but he didn't intend to fall asleep so early, but was holding a gun in his quilt, paying attention to the movement around him all the time.

At this point, Lu Zhenghe felt guilty in his heart.

With the marriage contract in hand, due to the current situation and special status, he can't give anything.Even after the two parties got in touch, he knew that Ruan Xi had a sweetheart.Although I feel uncomfortable, if I can't be the alpha of the other party now, then everything must be done with a measure of progress and retreat.

Before coming here, Lu Zhenghe had always thought that Ruan Xi was as quiet as the rumors said, because he disdained to talk to anyone's personality, and that the journey could be just a cooperative relationship, but Ruan Xi liked being close so much, and was willing to show his softness to himself look.

This disrupted his originally well-organized plan.

On the contrary, he himself, Lu Zhenghe, fled with his fiancé, who had been pampered and treated well since he was a child, and who had never suffered much. He didn't care about life and death, and he couldn't even be honest with each other.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhenghe stretched out his hand cautiously.

His fingertips were slightly warmer, and when they touched Ruan Xi's face, he stopped hesitantly.After a pause for a few seconds, Lu Zhenghe touched Ruan Xi's face very carefully.

If you can survive, you will reach the top of the snow mountain, where the world is vast...

We still have many possibilities.

In the early morning, the sky is not yet bright.

Lu Zhenghe has always been a light sleeper, more alert to the unfamiliar environment around him, and wakes up early.After a while, Ruan Xi also woke up, turned over and sat up, shaking his head, "It's not yet dawn? What time is it?"

"It's not morning yet," Lu Zhenghe said, "Let's go, start. It's almost time to get back in the car, before everyone else wakes up."

"Okay." Ruan Xi quickly started to pack up.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge, and the land before the sun is so cold that it is ridiculously cold. Ruan Xi shivered all the way, her neckline was tightly covered, and the "Hell Guard Dog" sent by Lu Zhenghe was also icy and cold on her chest , but it has long been warmed by the body temperature.

"By the way, we'll get in the car later and leave here. At noon, disaster is coming. Where are you going to find your prophet?"

Ruan Xi looked around, but she really didn't see any guides in the city of curse.

The sandy desert is vast, and the road has no direction.

"Prophets appear in life, if you meet them, you will naturally meet them." Lu Zhenghe replied.

"You are so superstitious." Ruan Xi complained about him.

Lu Zhenghe: "..."

Have it?

In fact, he is usually busy with training and tired during rest time, he seldom cares about his own affairs, and has not studied these personal affairs, but Li Shen whispered to him every day.

By the way, Li Shen also said that if you can't meet the prophet, it means that the prophecy doesn't work on the person being predicted.After the bumpy road, Lu Zhenghe didn't know whether he wanted to meet the prophet or not.

The scene in front of me has changed a little.

The mounds and hills that have been filled with brown and sand colors for a long time are no longer unchanged, and there is a small spot like a sapphire in it.The dots moved slowly from far to near until they became clearer and clearer, and finally a human shape gradually appeared.

A person came from a distance.

The man was wearing a dark blue robe and was walking slowly in the desert.Lu Zhenghe could see clearly that that person was coming in his direction.

"Your prophet?" Ruan Xi blurted out.

At this moment, Lu Zhenghe unexpectedly felt a strong psychological hint and sense of fate.

He slowed down almost uncontrollably, stood face to face under the rising sun, and said without thinking: "Yes."

"Will your prophet know me?" Ruan Xi nervously grasped the corner of the veil.

Lu Zhenghe turned his head to look at him, and the other party's bright and attractive eyes were exposed, and the deep red pupils looked clearer under the desert sun.

It seems to be crying red.he thought.

"..."

Silently, Lu Zhenghe stretched out his hand, and pulled down the place where Ruan Xi's veil covered his forehead.

Ruan Xi: "If you want to suffocate, I don't need to use this method."

Lu Zhenghe: "Be patient."

While the two were talking, the old man in a dark blue robe approached.First of all, his deep eyes did not fall on Lu Zhenghe, but looked at Ruan Xi from head to toe.

Finally, he set his sights on Lu Zhenghe.

He bowed slightly and put his hands on his chest, revealing the symbol representing Neptune on the back of his hand—the trident of Poseidon, the god of the sea.When Ruan Xi was studying at school, although he learned astronomy subjects so-so, he remembered that Neptune is a malefic planet, which means boundlessness, spirituality and salvation.

"Welcome, young master from the top of the snow mountain."

The old man spoke with a deep and deep voice, as if it came from the sky.

"Hello too," Lu Zhenghe said straight to the point, "May I ask if the prophecy I carry is true?"

"true."

"Is there any way to solve it?"

"Everything is in the universe, and the stars are moving. Slow down, maybe there will be a turning point."

"Slow down?"

The doomsday disaster is always around, they can't slow down...

The two fell silent.

The old man still maintained the posture when they met, slightly arched, with a very respectful attitude.His dark blue robe was so wide that it covered his head, leaving only his weather-beaten face exposed.

Seeing that the two young men stopped talking, the prophet said: "It's not just these. Since the prophecy comes from the city of the curse, there are naturally unknown places about it, and you need to discover it yourself."

Ruan Xi knew that this was not her prophet, so she didn't pay much attention to that "you".

But when he heard Lu Zhenghe and the prophet "talking about feelings" so devotedly, suddenly the desire to be more serious surged up in his heart.

So he asked, "Excuse me, do I have a chance to ruin the marriage?"

Broken marriage?

Lu Zhenghe, who heard the question from the side, was stunned for a moment.

The old man hesitated for a few seconds, and then said: "To destroy the marriage? Destroying beautiful things is not a good choice."

"A beautiful thing?" Ruan Xi wondered.

"Of course," said the old man, "but don't worry, it's under your control. Where the seasons change, the marriage contract will turn around for you."

A place where the seasons change?

It's winter in the south now, except for special areas like deserts, most cities in the south are cold.

Also, why for me?

Isn't marriage a matter of two people?

Ruan Xi restrained her astonishment, then bent down slightly, and bowed to the prophet, "Thank you."

"Time is running out, young masters. I need to continue on my way to the top of the mountain."

After all, the old man looked past the two of them and looked up at the boundless desert behind them.

"The direction to the top of the mountain is not here." Ruan Xi remembered that it was the direction towards the beast city, and there was no road there, only sea water.

The old man took half a step back, gently took Ruan Xi's fingertips respectfully, observed it admiringly for a while, then lowered his head and said: "There is also my mountain top in the ocean, just like the heaven and the earth will be silent for you."

He let go of Ruan Xi's fingers.Ruan Xi's hand hangs down, fingertips are as clean as snowflakes.

Suddenly, there was a wind in the desert, and the wind blew away a corner of Ruan Xi's veil, and the old man's dark blue robe flashed into the boundless desert like a blue morpho butterfly.

Lu Zhenghe stood quietly aside.

What does it mean that heaven and earth are silent for you?

Remember what was said in the prophecy——

His omega will die before him, coupled with the word "silent", Lu Zhenghe can't help but feel relieved.It's not a good sign by any means.

He didn't say anything to Ruan Xi.

As the sun rose, the morning light quietly fell on every inch of sand, and the city of curse ushered in the last day in its history.

The prophet went away and disappeared into the desert.
