It is strictly forbidden to pay for the ticket after getting on the bus

"Ah, what did you hit me for?" The girl who was hit was called Zhao Hanrui, and her complexion was not very good at this time, it seemed that she had a grudge for a long time.

"I... I didn't do it on purpose." The boy timidly lowered his head, moved his feet, and took another step closer to Bai Jue's side. His slender fingers were placed in the air, only a couple of feet away from Bai Jue's sleeve. Centimeters, inseparable, perfectly interpret the fragile beauty of the phrase "want to touch and then withdraw your hand", which makes me feel pitiful.

Bai Luochuan looked at the boy as if watching a play, his eyes full of interest.

He remembered that this person should be called Lian An, and he seemed to have just grown up, the skeleton of the young man's body hadn't grown yet, and he looked very slender.

Look at this appearance, do you want to hook up with Bai Jue?

"I really didn't do it on purpose." As if to confirm Bai Luochuan's thoughts, Lian An repeated again, raising his head and looking at Bai Jue aggrievedly, his eyes filled with crystal tears.

"Fuck, this man is more motherly than you, Erjiu." Si Qi complained in a low voice.

Lin Jiuzhi rolled his eyes: "How many times have I told you that I'm not a mother, is it because you are too manly!"

And Bai Jue obviously has abnormal brain circuits, and has no sense of being popular at all. On the contrary, seeing Bai Luochuan's eyes on Lian An all the time, quite focused, he feels that this person is extremely obtrusive.

"Is it so good-looking?" Bai Jue turned Bai Luochuan's head towards him with an unhappy expression, not letting him stare at that person again.

Bai Luochuan blinked innocently: "It's pretty pretty." That appearance of crying is better than many actors on TV.

"Hmph." Bai Jue snorted coldly, and turned to Lian An with eyes so cold that he could freeze to death.

"Miss, you got that powder on your feet." Lin Jiu reminded, pointing at Zhao Hanrui's shoes.

The white sneakers that Zhao Hanrui was wearing had a black mark on the side of the shoes, which was very obvious.

"It's really unlucky!" Zhao Hanrui looked ugly, gave Lian An a hard look, and took out a tissue from his pocket to wipe his shoes.

But the black marks seemed to be printed on it, no matter how much you wiped it, the black marks were firmly stained on the white shoes.

"Let's go, don't look." Bai Jue glanced at Zhao Hanrui, and pulled Bai Luochuan to the main hall.

Before he took two steps, the corner of his clothes was grabbed by someone.

Lian An blinked a pair of deer-like eyes, with just the right amount of admiration and weakness in his eyes, and his voice trembled slightly: "...Mr. Bai, can I follow you?"

"sure."

"cannot!"

Two voices sounded simultaneously.

A sour feeling rose in Bai Jue's heart, he pinched Bai Luochuan's palm angrily, and replied indifferently to Lian An again: "You can't follow me."

"Why?" Lian Anxiu frowned slightly, with tears on her long eyelashes.

"There's no reason." Bai Jue's voice was very cold, of course he wouldn't say it was because he was upset that Bai Luochuan had paid too much attention to this person named Lian An.

"Then why can he?" Lian An pointed at Bai Luochuan indignantly, "He just has a fake appearance, and he doesn't look very good! Maybe he can only hold you back!"

"Huh?" Bai Luochuan showed a playful smile, hanging on Bai Jue's body casually, "Who says I'm not good, at least I'm good in bed! Isn't it Bai Jue."

"...cough, cough..." The blush on Bai Jue's neck climbed all the way to his cheeks, and he whimpered vaguely, but he was a little bit complaining in his heart - he had experienced it several years ago, and this person was ashamed Say, can't you let him feel the power again in the near future?

"You! You guys!" Lian An pointed at the two in disbelief, "It's so shameless! You're talking about skin and flesh trading so confidently!"

"I don't know who said last night that you can step on a few boats, but also said that others are shameless." Lin Jiu muttered softly.

Si Qi patted Lin Jiu's shoulder with relief: "That's right, Erjiu, you know how to be consistent."

"Humph."

Ignoring Lian An any more, after having lunch in the General's Mansion, the four of them decided to take a stroll outside the mansion.

Although it was broad daylight, when I was on the street, my heart still felt a little chilly.

This city is indeed a dead city, but what is different from the ancient town last time is that the residents of this ancient capital city are like servants in the general's mansion, they can walk freely in the city, as if they had never died.

But they are also dead.

They were even wearing ancient costumes thousands of years ago, so that the modern costumes of Bai Jue and the others looked like people who had traveled through time, which was extraordinarily weird.

"Why don't we change some clothes? Will we be arrested as a foreigner?" Si Qi said.

"Come on," Bai Luochuan said, "Look at these people, their expressions are sluggish, and they probably don't feel any changes in the outside world at all, so how could they come to arrest you."

Sure enough, when Si Qi took a closer look at the appearance of those pedestrians and residents, she found that all of them had blank expressions, like programmed robots, walking around like walking dead.

"But they are a bit more advanced than zombies, and they can still sell things." Bai Luochuan looked at the 'boss' standing in front of the street stall.

But it is estimated that even if they took all the things from the stall, the boss would not have much reaction, because "stall setting up" was set, but "begging for money" was not.

"The whole street is like this, it's just too creepy." Si Qi murmured.

"It's not the whole street, it's the whole city."

"Fortunately, these ghosts are more decent, unlike the last town where there are holes here and there are missing hands." Bai Luochuan rubbed his arms and said happily.

"Going forward, it should be the palace, right?" Lin Jiu tiptoed to look around.

"Imperial Palace? Let's go! Go and see what's different from the real world." Si Qi said excitedly.

But they didn't expect the distance to be so long. They walked all the way and observed the surrounding environment and pedestrians. The speed was not fast, and they walked for two hours without reaching the palace.

After all, if they had to go to the palace today, it would be late at night when they came back. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, they decided to go back the same way and come back later.

Back at the General's Mansion, there was still a while before the meal, and the few of them went to look at the formation again.

Lin Jiu, adhering to the fine tradition of being a good student, took out a pen and paper, and traced it according to the appearance of the formation.

"It's a pity that there is no internet in this platform world, otherwise I would have asked the almighty Du Niang." Si Qi regretted.

"what is this?"

Bai Jue squatted down, tilted his head parallel to the ground, fixed his eyes on a shallow dent on the ground, and couldn't see it unless he looked carefully.

"What?" Bai Luochuan followed his gaze and asked in confusion, "Is it a line?"

Bai Jue's gaze followed the dent, and his expression was rare.

"It's still a formation."

"What do you mean?"

Bai Jue stood up, looked deep into the courtyard, and then raised his head to look at the sky surrounded by the general's mansion: "This symbol is not a complete formation, it should be just one of the formation eyes, if you guess correctly If so, there are probably several such things in the General’s Mansion, and they connect forces through these dents to form a complete formation..."

"...shrouded the entire mansion inside."

"...Oh Maiga," Si Qi held her arms tightly, "So weird? Isn't this the General's Mansion? Shouldn't it be full of righteousness and masculinity! Why are there still these magical things?"

"This is just my guess." Bai Jue said.

"Then let's go find such an eye, and see if what you said is true." Bai Luochuan shrugged.

Now it was evening, and now the sky was filled with burning clouds, like the flames of a prairie fire, scarlet, and like the snake letter of a giant python, writhing and wriggling, as if it was going to come down to sweep people away.

"This sky looks really unlucky." Bai Luochuan murmured, it was clearly on fire, but when he looked at it, he felt chills all over his body, and his fingertips felt numb from the cold.

But in the next second, a warm palm held his cold fingers and wrapped them in a ball, as if wrapped in a warm and soft quilt.

The gaze that Bai Jue looked over was not at all the indifference that he usually sees when looking at others, but the care and worry that filled him directly crashed into Bai Luochuan's heart.

"Are you okay? I think your complexion is not very good."

"It's okay, I just feel a little cold." Bai Luochuan lowered his eyes, and the two clasped hands under such an apocalyptic sky gave birth to a kind of reckless tenderness, making the atmosphere lingering for no reason.

"Go back to your room after dinner..."

"what--"

Before Bai Jue finished speaking, a shrill scream broke the peaceful atmosphere of this time.

"What happened?" Bai Luochuan frowned, the weather was indeed unlucky.

"Go, go and have a look." Bai Jue gathered Bai Luochuan's clothes, and walked towards the direction where the screams came from.

After walking a few steps, I saw a newcomer who just got on the train running madly, passing them, shouting indiscriminately while running.

"Dead dead... dead... help me, I want to go home! Let me go back—let me go back—"

"Tsk, another crazy one." Bai Luochuan shook his head.

But it is indeed dead.

According to the description of those who saw it, Zhao Hanrui, the girl whose shoes were stained with black powder before, was standing in the courtyard, and a flame ignited inexplicably on her body, which could not be extinguished no matter what.

Then the fire seemed to be poured with oil, and it grew bigger and bigger until it swallowed her whole body, like a burning man.

By the time Bai Jue and the others arrived, the fire had been gradually extinguished within a few tens of seconds, leaving only a scorched black corpse lying across the courtyard, filled with a strong burnt smell.

"Is it... because of that black powder?" Lin Jiu's voice trembled.

"Well," Bai Jue nodded, he remembered the smell he had smelled before, "That powder is gunpowder."

"So anyone who touches that thing will die?"
