A very huge towering ancient tree stands in front of you, its roots spread out for ten miles, coiled and twisted, and deeply penetrated into the soil. The trunk is so huge that it can't be seen.

The branches and leaves of the ancient tree are staggered, green and bright, and the stretched branches and leaves cover the sky, only the sunlight penetrates the branches and leaves, and shines a bunch of holy beams of light.

Xiao Qing stood up from the ground as if nothing had happened, patted the debris on his body, looked up, and saw that the layers of clouds could only float among the branches and leaves of the old trees.

"This is the [-]th step?"

Lu Jinzhi walked out from behind him, looked at the towering ancient tree and said, "That's right, this tree in front of me should be the body of Fusang Ruomu."

The two walked forward for a stick of incense, and finally saw the stone steps circling the ancient wood.The stone steps are covered by vine roots, covered with moss, and very narrow, it is not easy to walk, and it is mandatory to walk up step by step.

If one accidentally falls, it will be smashed to pieces.

Lu Jinzhi took the lead to step up the stone steps. The strong suit he was wearing was very suitable. His long straight legs were wrapped in long boots, his arms were wrapped with red bodyguards, and the hem of his black clothes hung down to his knees, with a belt in the middle. Wrapping around her thin waist, her black hair was tied into a neat high ponytail, and the hairband with black gold flowing clouds was blown up by the wind, which was pleasing to the eye, and the young man was full of vigor.

As for Xiao Qing, it was very miserable. He was wearing a white robe with long sleeves hanging down to the ground, and his waist-length black hair was hanging down his back. He had to lift the hem of his clothes when he took a step, otherwise he would lose his life if he accidentally turned his foot.

Lu Jinzhi turned his handsome side face to look back at him, stretched out his hand to give him a hand, frowned and said: "With your speed, it will take three days and three nights to climb up?"

Xiao Qing stared at the blue sky, pouting his mouth and vomited a bubble, pretending not to hear the disgust in his words.

The countdown of the cannon fodder function in his mind is running out, and if he is anxious, he will only be worse. Xiao Qing even thought about knocking Lu Jinzhi unconscious, and ran away quickly.

As soon as this idea came up, he suddenly felt his body was empty, and Lu Jinzhi actually squatted down and carried him on his back......

Since Lu Jinzhi was standing on a higher step, it was easy to carry him on his back as soon as he bent down, and he didn't even ask Xiao Qing, but he could tell from the look in his eyes that he was completely helpless .

Of course, Xiao Qing instinctively wanted to resist. He pushed Lu Jinzhi's shoulder and said angrily: "You let me down, we will go our own way, don't want you to carry me!"

Lu Jinzhi's arm restrained his kicking long legs, and said coldly: "I have to ask you after I go out, you did those things."

Xiao Qing was slightly stunned, his clenched hands stopped in the air, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Lu Jinzhi walked up the stone steps steadily with him on his back, and the beam of light shone on the two of them clearly and lightly, which was obviously a very beautiful sight, but the tense atmosphere between the two made this beauty into pieces.

"Several sneak attacks, food poisoning, and an impossible trap, what do you think?"

Xiao Qing's eyes moved slightly, it was hard to imagine that Lu Jinzhi had gone through so many hardships during this period, he was not someone who would easily make decisions for others, so Xiao Qing asked: "Why do you think it is me? The capital has already laid hands on you before."

Lu Jinzhi said: "There is a lot of evidence pointing to you, and a junior has seen the appearance of the man in black with his own eyes."

Xiao Qing: "..."

"You believe what your junior brother says?!" For some reason, Xiao Qing felt very unhappy, and he attributed all this to being misunderstood.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Qing calmed down. He felt that he didn't need to be angry about being blamed for the vest. If he was misunderstood, he would be misunderstood. Anyway, when he turned on the tuba, the vest would be useless, so he didn't bother to explain too much.

After a while, Lu Jinzhi said: "The younger brother only said that the face of the man looked like you, and he was not sure, so I have to take you back and confront him face to face."

Xiao Qing turned his head and let out a muffled snort. In fact, he also knew that the various forces in the southern border capital were intertwined, and Lu Jinzhi was undoubtedly a piece of meat.In the past, there was Lu Minghao who raised him for more than ten years for unknown reasons, and in the future, there was Princess Yushang who helped him.

Even before in Yunjin Suiyu Village, Zhao Si, who wanted Lu Jinzhi's life, was fishing in troubled waters. Bo Yun was treacherous, and it was impossible to guard against hidden arrows. Apart from this group of people, Xiao Qing felt that there was a deep hidden force staring at them secretly. Wait for this group of people to fight until they lose both sides before they show up and collect the net.

Xiao Qing leaned on Lu Jinzhi's broad and solid back, supported by strong arms, and suddenly felt that under such a complicated background, this man's back was so reassuring. He had a faint fragrance of rosin, which was very clean and warm. , people can't help but want to rely on.

The long three thousand bluestone steps were thrown behind him, and Lu Jinzhi walked up steadily step by step with him on his back like this, without even breathing, time passed by his fingertips, and gradually, Xiao Qing could touch the floating At that moment, he felt a little hot on his face, and the air seemed to be heating up with the height.

Layers of clouds blocked the eyes, and the narrow bluestone steps made it difficult to see clearly. It became more and more careless to reach this height. Xiao Qing asked Lu Jinzhi to put him down, and the speed of the two slowed down again.

The beam of light passing through the branches and leaves shines on the clouds, and the edges are plated with a layer of silver-gold light. Shuttle in the clouds, Xiao Qingmei casts a magic spell on himself. I can't see the road under my feet clearly, and I inevitably feel a little uncertain.He simply lifted up the hem of his clothes and tucked it into his belt, trying to walk steadily.

Suddenly, he felt that his sleeve was being pulled by something. He thought it was caught by a branch that had grown out. He wanted to pull the sleeve back, but he heard Lu Jinzhi say in front of him: "Don't move around."

Xiao Qing: "..."

After walking for a while, Xiao Qing couldn't help but say arrogantly: "I allow you to hold my hand."

Behind the layers of clouds, Lu Jinzhi seemed to give him a blank look: "Don't pull."

"Why? I don't have sweaty hands!"

Lu Jinzhi said: "I don't like to have physical contact with people."

Xiao Qing said again: "..."

It was really difficult for you before, not only forcing you to kiss me, but also forcing you to warm my hands, no wonder your blackening value has risen so fast.

The system is powerless to support the forehead, this year's host has broken the system's heart.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xiao Qing's calf began to cramp, and finally he couldn't hold on any longer. He supported the tree trunk and waved his hands: "Take a break, I can't walk anymore."

Lu Jinzhi stopped and looked back at him with disgust: "Why are you so delicate?"

Xiao Qing was furious: "You have spells, but I don't!"

"Are you sure you haven't, and you still have to pretend at this time?"

Xiao Qing insisted: "No, no, no, no!"

While arguing, they suddenly heard movement in front of them. The two people who were arguing immediately stopped their voices, looked at each other, and walked quickly towards the front.

A figure appeared in the clouds, and it was too vague to see clearly. Lu Jinzhi did not hesitate, and a long bow was transformed into a longbow in his palm. An extremely thin ice string was stretched on the golden bow body. He pulled the string with one hand, and his fingertips immediately A golden arrow of light was condensed, shining brightly, cold and gorgeous.

The bowstring was stretched to the extreme, and the tip was aimed at the man, but suddenly a startled voice sounded: "Brother Lu?"

"..."

The feather arrow turned into golden light particles and dissipated at the fingertips. Lu Jinzhi retracted the bow, and the person in the cloud also revealed his true face. It was Zhou Wei.

Lu Jinzhi asked, "When did you come out?"

Zhou Wei walked over with joyful strides, looked past Xiao Qing, nodded to him after being slightly stunned, and then said to Lu Jinzhi: "I came out very early, how about you, did you encounter any danger, and was the process going smoothly? "

"Everything is fine."

So the three of them walked together afterwards, and Zhou Wei talked about what kind of illusion he encountered along the way, which was generally similar to the ancient city they encountered, except that without the intervention of Yingzhu, it seemed much more ordinary.

"I also entered a book garden later, and met a carp spirit in the lotus pond. She met her three requirements and let me out." Zhou Wei then talked about the three requirements, and it was just right. Xing Xing, his eyes inadvertently glanced at Lu Jinzhi's hand holding Xiao Qing's sleeve, he was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and continued to speak without any trace, but no one noticed that his originally upbeat ending gradually became flat.

"By the way, why did you go all the way? Could it be that you entered the same illusion?"

Xiao Qing said: "Coincidentally, probably because they went in together."

Zhou Wei smiled slightly: "It's also fate."

Go up a flight of stairs and you will be able to get out of the eye-catching clouds to the top.A general number of [-] fingers in the [-]th order, I am afraid that no one can know how high it is, nor how long it will take to find the water mirror after passing the clouds.Xiao Qing watched the countdown to the end of the cannon fodder system in his mind, and began to look for bad ideas to get out.

Zhou Wei, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned his head and said to Xiao Qing: "The higher you go, the more slippery the stone steps will be. You must be careful where you step, my lord."

"All right."

After a while, Zhou Wei said again: "Why don't I lead the young master to go, be safer."

Before Xiao Qing could answer, he walked up to him, stretched out his hand and looked at him with a smile, and said, "Shall I hold you?"

Xiao Qing glanced at the void under his feet covered by the clouds, he was a little uncertain, but his sleeve was held tightly by Lu Jinzhi, if he wanted to get out, he had to shake off Lu Jinzhi's hand "holding" his sleeve, so Thinking about it, Xiao Qing nodded his head in thanks and said: "Then I will trouble you."

Lu Jinzhi let go of him as he wished, and Xiao Qing also put his onion-like hand on Zhou Wei's palm at the same time, and Zhou Wei then pulled him and walked for a while.

In the middle of the journey, Xiao Qing excused that his legs were hurting, and asked Zhou Wei to let go and let him pinch his calf. While rubbing, he said, "You go first, and I will catch up with you later."

Zhou Wei glanced at him with a smile, and said, "Okay, don't worry, I'll walk slowly."

Xiao Qing kneaded very slowly, and waited until the two of them were about to disappear in the clouds before turning around abruptly and trying to run.

He didn't plan to jump down, because he couldn't guarantee that he would be safe, so he finally chose to run back safely, and Lu Jinzhi would definitely not chase back for him.

But God probably misunderstood him, just as he took a step, his feet suddenly slipped, the stairs were already narrow, the slippery sound sounded, and the whole person fell out high into the air.

At that time, the clouds were very thin, and there was obviously no moss on the ground...

His body fell extremely fast, and the strong wind howled past Xiao Qing's ears. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. The wind made his slender eyelashes tremble. The hand was suddenly grabbed.

Xiao Qing opened his eyes in astonishment, and saw a pair of porcelain-like hands with sharp knuckles holding him tightly. On top of it was a red wrapped gauntlet, and above it was Lu Jinzhi's handsome and pale face gnashing his teeth.

Zhou Wei's voice came anxiously from above the clouds: "Brother Lu, are you all okay? Just answer me if you're okay?"

However, neither of the two made a sound. They looked at each other, one above and the other below. There were suspicion, hesitation, perseverance, slyness and imperceptible fear, tension, and anger in the gaze above.

There were surprise, bewilderment, doubt and very, very faint gratitude in the gaze below.

The wind blows Xiao Qing's clothes and sleeves into the air, and Wu Dai dances in the air, like a cloud of smoke flying out. His black hair is slightly disheveled, and his temples are wet with thin sweat. His normally red lips are also pale, and his beautiful eyes are radiant. Turning around, it seemed a little pitiful.

"You let go, neither of us can go up if this continues."

Lu Jinzhi couldn't free both hands, and couldn't pinch the Zhaoyu Saber.

He gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Even if it's a matter of life and death, you still refuse to expose yourself!"

Xiao Qing looked up at him, and smiled suddenly, that smile was extremely beautiful and bright, but somehow it made Lu Jinzhi feel cold.

"The identity you call your lord is a mortal, so there is nothing to be exposed."

Lu Jinzhi held him tightly, speechless for a while: "You..."

Zhou Wei still called them anxiously from above, the voice became more and more urgent and sharper, Xiao Qing's words became even more inaudible, almost blown away by the wind: "I am just a mortal. "

He raised his hand and put it on Lu Jinzhi's hand that was holding him tightly, and smiled almost innocently for a moment: "Didn't you say that you don't like physical contact with people?"

Lu Jinzhi gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "You think you can escape like this!"

Xiao Qing smiled and said, "I'll try."

One by one, he opened Lu Jinzhi's iron-like fingers. He could feel that Lu Jinzhi's fingertips were trembling, and the muscles in his arms were tensing and convulsing. At this moment, Xiao Qing felt very happy and sore It was inflated, like a balloon stretched to the extreme, about to break through the confinement, and let out a bang.

Pulling away the last finger, the palm was unable to let go. Xiao Qing closed his eyes and fell down again. What was reflected in Lu Jinzhi's deep pupils was the scene of Xiao Qing falling rapidly and his hair dancing wildly.

When the clouds below were about to swallow the white shadow, Lu Jinzhi gritted his teeth and jumped down.
