Five days later, in a desolate suburb in the north.
From far to near, a broken and small delivery truck appeared staggeringly on a winding path.
This place is a bit remote, the roads are narrow and difficult to walk, and there are no officers and soldiers guarding them. There are few living people in ten days and a half months. Normal people would not choose this road.
However, there is no need to pay repair fees for unattended small roads.Some small traders who have a small business and want to escape a few money will take this way with a fluke mentality.
The delivery van drove for a while, and stopped at a side road not far from the city. A middle-aged man jumped out of the car, went to the back and patted the goods vigorously: "Hey! Wake up, it's here!"
The middle-aged man repeated it several times, and finally there was a little sound at the top of the cargo.A hooded gray robe showed a corner, and then slowly climbed down from the top of the cargo.
Inside the robe was a boy of ten years old, his face was partly blocked by the robe, but his delicate and beautiful facial features were still visible, his complexion was pale, his cheeks and lips were flushed abnormally, revealing a morbid beauty.
After he stood firmly, he coughed a few times in a low voice, turned his head to look around, and asked, "Where is this...?"
The voice is nice, but the words are soft, as if the wind blows them away.
The middle-aged man came back to his senses, and his thick voice unconsciously softened a little: "Uh, Chongyue City is ahead, I have to take another road to deliver the goods, so I can only send you here. You have to continue If you’re heading north, it’s best to go through Chongyue City.”
Lou Yun hummed when he heard the words, tightened his robe, and thanked the other party.
The middle-aged man was about to go back to the car, he paused, and looked at Lou Yun again, seemingly uneasy.
One day ago, he drove his car on the path and saw a person walking and fell to the ground. He hurried up and found that he was still alive, so he did a good deed and took the person on the road.
This person's clothing style is not like that of ordinary people, so he is naturally not a homeless refugee, but it is really strange to appear alone on a deserted road.When someone woke up, he would shake his head when asked where his home was, and he would shake his head when asked where he was going, and only said in a daze that he was going north.
The middle-aged man frowned, and said worriedly: "Young master, you really didn't run away from home in a fit of anger?"
"..." Lou Yun lowered his head and coughed twice, then shook his head, "Really not."
The middle-aged man obviously didn't believe it, and he wanted to say more, but he saw Lou Yun fumbled from the inside of his robe, and threw a shiny object over.
"Thank you for taking me here. I don't have anything on me anymore, so I'll give you this as a thank you gift."
The middle-aged man took a closer look, and his eyes suddenly lit up.This is a small spar that is moist all over the body, and there is still a faint glow inside, which is extremely gorgeous.
This, this seems to be used by those immortals, called spirit stones!The nearby area is too remote, the spiritual energy is thin, and there are very few people cultivating immortals. This thing is really rare!This trip really took off!
The middle-aged man accepted the spirit stone with a happy face, thanked him again and again, knowing that the person in front of him must not be an ordinary person, he didn't bother to care about it, turned around and drove away.
The delivery truck jingled away, leaving Lou Yun alone.
As the cold wind blew by, he tightened his neckline to cover his thin and white neck, and stretched out his hand to press his head.The past few days have passed in a daze. After coming out of the Mozun Palace, he has been on his way. Day and night have alternated several times, and he doesn't remember how far he has traveled.
He said he was on his way, and he didn't know where he was going.The Mozun Hall is to the west, Jinghua Immortal Gate to the east, and Dongqin City to the south. He just subconsciously walked north.
He has nowhere to go back, there is no place for him anywhere.
He had no possessions, and was alone when he came to this world, but he didn't expect that he still is now.For such a long time, everything I have experienced has been like a bubble, and there is nothing after it is broken, I only feel irony and embarrassment.
Thinking that I have a connection with this world, thinking that I have an enviable master, thinking that I finally have someone I admire, only to find out in the end that all this is just a play in the other party's leisure time.
Enough is enough.
Lou Yun closed his eyes, his teeth were biting his lower lip, which turned white.
My head hurts and I feel dizzy all the time, and my whole body has become heavy. The previous illness has not healed at all, and this journey seems to have worsened.But these are nothing, far less serious than the pain in the chest, just bear it and get over it.
He took a deep breath, looked up at the city gate ahead, and walked slowly along the narrow road.
After entering the city, the surrounding area gradually became lively.
Pedestrians flocked endlessly, hawkers shouted one after another, and the scent of various snacks penetrated through it.
Lou Yun was in a semi-Bigu state, and hadn't eaten for a while.Originally, with the increase in cultivation base, it would be fine even if I didn't eat it for a month or two, but now I smell the aroma, I feel hungry and I can't walk.
In the first one or two days, in order to get away from that place as soon as possible, I exhausted my spiritual energy by traveling all the way.However, the aura in this place is thin, coupled with the fact that he is sick and has no spiritual energy to nourish him, food and clothing has become a problem that needs to be paid attention to.
There is a pastry stand a few meters away, steaming hot and sweet.Lou Yun stood on the side of the road through the crowd, and couldn't help but glance at it several times.
He licked his lips, subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, and suddenly remembered that there was nothing left on him.
I threw a lot of things on the road, and I can't remember if I threw them or dropped them in a panic.
Lou Yun groped for a long time, but couldn't find half of the valuables. He couldn't help but sighed softly, and his eyes drooped.
"Hey, young master, do you want to eat peach blossom cakes! The ancestral handicraft, freshly baked, glutinous and delicious! Why don't you come and try a piece?" The pastry vendor looked at Lou Yun and said hurriedly.
Lou Yun hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't hold back the alluring scent, approached the booth, and took a breath restrained.
"My lord, look at this peach blossom cake. It's sweet but not greasy, soft and delicious. You can't find anything better than ours in Chongming City! The price is also cheap. It only costs two yuan a piece. How much do you want?"
Two children?Isn't currency a spirit stone?
Lou Yun thought about it, probably because the aura here is thin, and there are no spirit stones. I am afraid that this place is closer to the normal ancient times.
Lou Yun pursed his lips, looked at the pink and soft peach cake, swallowed, and shook his head.
Whether it was spirit stones or other currencies, he couldn't get them out.
"Hey? Why, no money, forget it."
Before the peddler waved his hand, Lou Yun pulled his robe tightly to cover his face, as if he was afraid of smelling the fragrance again, he walked away quickly.
Chongming City is not a small city, and Lou Yun walked for a long time without reaching the end.His mind was dizzy and his stomach was hungry, Lou Yun wasn't sure if he had gone the wrong way.
It was getting late, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually decreased, and the vendors who were scrambling to shout during the day also packed up their things and closed up, and the surrounding area suddenly became deserted.
Lou Yun leaned against the cold wall, coughed a few times in a low voice, finally half-closed his eyes as if unable to support himself, and sat down along the wall.
He still has to go through this city and continue to go north. This is not far enough, and he has to go a little further, far enough to leave that person's world.
Let's rest here tonight. I have slept in the wilderness, and it's okay to sleep on the street. I will continue walking tomorrow.
The wind was strong at night, Lou Yun wrapped his robe tightly, looked at the dotted lights of other people's houses in the distance, and fell asleep after an unknown period of time.
I don't know if I fell asleep or fainted.
Her breathing gradually became slow and long, her slender eyelashes trembled slightly in the cold wind, and a light shadow fell on her pale face.
There was silence all around, and she stayed beside Lou Yun in a silver and white costume.
He lowered his eyes and watched silently for a while, squatted down, stretched out his hand, but stopped when he was about to touch the side of the other's face, as if he was afraid of waking him up, or something else.
Lou Yun's eyes were closed tightly, his brows were slightly frowned, his cheeks and lips were burning red and hot, he seemed to be sleeping very restlessly, as if he felt sad and at a loss in his dreams, and he couldn't even relax his brows in his dreams.
Qi Chao was silent for a few seconds, then sighed lightly.
The hand hanging in the air fell down, and gently clasped Lou Yun's wrist.The wrist was exposed to the air and was blown cool by the night wind, making it thin and delicate to hold.
Qi Chao carefully put a ray of spiritual power in to investigate, and after a while he frowned slightly.
He hesitated for a moment, as if he was afraid of being noticed, he only lost a little spiritual power to go in, then carefully picked up the person horizontally, turned and walked towards the inn.
The two were very close, surrounded by a cold and familiar aura.
Lou Yun leaned against Qi Chao's arms, his body shrank subconsciously, and his frown was finally relaxed.
He fell into a deep sleep, rubbed his head against the other's chest unconsciously, found a more comfortable position, and stopped moving.
Qi Chao tightened his arms, and walked straight to a well-decorated inn.
The inn was also closed at this point, no one was working, the closed door suddenly opened, the cold wind came in, and the boy who was dozing on the table woke up with a jerk.
He rubbed his eyes and looked up. A figure appeared at the door. He seemed to be holding someone in his arms, so he went up to him in a daze and said, "Guest officer, is it better to stay at the hotel?"
When he approached, he stopped after just one glance, not daring to take a half step closer.
... This man is good... what's so good about him?
The boy couldn't find words to describe it for a moment, he just felt that he didn't dare to raise his head, didn't dare to cast his eyes randomly, his feet were weak, and he even had the urge to kneel down.
"Stay in the store." A faint voice sounded.
Before the boy could react, a shiny object fell into his hands, and when he took a closer look, his eyes almost went straight.
"Guest, guest officer, please on the third floor, we have the top room here, there is no second one in Chongming City, you are satisfied!"
The boy knew that the person in his arms seemed to be asleep, so he deliberately lowered his voice.He brought the man into the room, and asked when he exited: "Guest officer, do you want anything else?"
Qi Chao put the man on the couch, pulled the quilt to cover him, said in silence for a moment: "Bring me some peach blossom cakes tomorrow morning, and ask for the one in the south of the city."
The boy was about to respond, but he heard the other party say: "... Forget it."
Qi Chao lowered his eyes, looked at the deep sleeping face of the person in front of him, brushed the loose ends of his hair with his fingertips, his eyes were deep and quiet.
"I'll go buy it myself."
From far to near, a broken and small delivery truck appeared staggeringly on a winding path.
