The two of them carefully concealed their own auras and walked through the thick fog. After walking for a long time, the guide butterfly showed no sign of stopping. Gu Wenyu even missed the time when he was a black cat. When he couldn't walk anymore, he walked towards He Xi's shoulder.
How could I have broken my legs like this when I was lying down?
In the vast fog, except for the faint light emitted by the guiding butterfly, no matter which direction they looked from, the visible distance was only a few meters away. If they did not follow the guiding butterfly, the two of them would immediately lose their way in the fog.
This feeling of being unreliable at both ends makes people very insecure. You don't know what is waiting for you in front of you, and whether something will suddenly jump out of the darkness and kill you.
"How far is it?" Gu Wenyu asked in a low voice.
The two were so close that they could hear each other talking with only a small voice.
"I don't know, you can't walk?" He Xi didn't know where Guide Die was taking him. He just followed out of trust in Guide Die. Only after being interrupted by Gu Wenyu did he realize that the two of them were indeed
Walked for a long time.
"It's not just that I can't walk, I just can't see my surroundings clearly and I don't feel safe."
"I have no choice but to trust this guy now." He Xi was of course referring to Guidingdie.
Gu Wenyu had no better way, so she could only choose to follow He Xi.
In this thick fog, sight was deprived, and even Gu Wenyu's sense of smell lost its advantage. The demonic aura in this place was so strong that even if there were demons approaching, it would be difficult to detect it. Gu Wenyu felt as if he had been abandoned by the world, except for the people around him.
If you have someone you can rely on, there will be no other way to leave.
Guidingdie led the two of them up a barren mountain. The two of them clung to the stone wall and walked hard on the piles of rocks. On the other side of the road was a steep cliff. Gu Wenyu held onto He Xi's clothes tightly, fearing that in the blink of an eye he would fall.
After a while, He Xi was no longer visible.
"Ah!" The stone under Gu Wenyu's feet came loose, and she almost fell down when her feet slipped.
"Xiao Hei!" He Xi grabbed Gu Wenyu with his backhand, and Gu Wenyu choked and stood firm.
Gu Wenyu grabbed He Xi's arm with lingering fear and looked at the cliff behind her. "It's okay, it's okay." She patted her chest as if to comfort herself.
"Be careful." He Xi grabbed Gu Wenyu's little arm worriedly, fearing that something might happen to her again.
He Xi took every step very steadily, and there seemed to be no pressure on him. This was probably not the first time he had appeared in such a desperate situation.
"I see that you have a lot of experience in outdoor hiking, but if you pull me like this, it's hard for you to walk, right?" Gu Wenyu whispered, as if speaking a little louder would affect her balance.
"What do you want to say?" He Ximan was puzzled.
"Let go first." Gu Wenyu didn't dare to make any big move to shake off He Xi's hand, but let He Xi take the initiative to let go.
He Xi let go of her hand without knowing why, and saw a flash of light and shadow, and Gu Wenyu's figure disappeared. A black cat about three to four months old appeared where she was standing.
"Meow~" Gu Wenyu turned back into a little black cat and looked at He Xi with a pair of green eyes.
"What's going on?" He Xi looked confused. His first reaction was that Gu Wenyu was exhausted and turned into a black cat. But then he thought about it, Gu Wenyu is a human being, and he shouldn't turn into a black cat even if he is exhausted.
"Meow~" Gu Wenyu's cat's claws were firmly grasped on the stone, and he tried to take two steps forward. It felt pretty good. For the size of the little black cat, the road became wider, and the cat's claws had a strong grip.
Yes, it is much safer than the human state.
He Xi saw Gu Wenyu bypass him and continue walking forward, and understood Gu Wenyu's intention.
Gu Wenyu had only taken two steps when he was suddenly picked up by Lingkong.
"Meow?" Gu Wenyu's four paws were still moving forward. She was about to struggle when she realized that it was He Xi who was holding her up, and she obediently stopped moving.
He Xi put Gu Wenyu on his shoulder and stroked the fur on the cat's back, "Let's go."
"Meow~" Gu Wenyu sat comfortably on He Xi's shoulder, even feeling that the road ahead was going wrong. He should have turned into Xiao Hei and sat on her "special seat".
But He Xi already knew Gu Wenyu's identity, and Gu Wenyu was too embarrassed to rub his head on He Xi's neck. She just sat there obediently, as obediently as a motionless rag doll.
Without Gu Wenyu slowing him down, He Xi walked as if walking on flat ground alone, and even his pace sped up a lot.
After coming down from the barren mountain and walking forward for a while, the guide butterflies finally stopped. The golden butterflies circled around an open space. He Xi knew that he had arrived at the right place.
He Xi first circled twice around the place where the guide butterfly stayed, then turned over his hand and took out his brush, then reached out and scratched the black cat's chin, "We're here."
"Meow~" Gu Wenyu jumped down from He Xi's shoulder. When her feet touched the ground, Gu Wenyu had already transformed back into a human. She looked at the empty place in front of her and wondered: "Is this right here?
?Why is there nothing?"
He Xi drew in the void with the brush in his hand, and the golden light flashed away, as if it was swallowed by an unknown force.
"It seems like someone is waiting for us outside." He Xi said uncertainly.
"Is there someone? Could it be your friend? A senior brother or something?" Gu Wenyu was very optimistic. When He Xi said there was someone, her first reaction was to wait for rescue.
He Xi shook his head, "I don't have any brothers. When it comes to my generation in the He family, I am the only demon slayer."
"Is that your friend?" Gu Wenyu still had hope for rescue.
But He Xi still smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I used to have a friend, but I haven't seen him for a long time." As he spoke, He Xi looked at the chain on Gu Wenyu's hand and said:
"Speaking of which, he used to wear a similar bracelet."
Gu Wenyu vaguely felt that something was wrong, so she asked in a low voice: "That friend of yours... what's his name?"
"He? I don't know what his name is specifically. He just said his name was Xiaotian, and I've been calling him that."
Gu Wenyu's head buzzed when he heard this, Xiaotian! Could it be Gu Wentian's God? Gu Wenyu wanted to take out her phone and show He Xi his brother's photo, but the phone was out of battery and she couldn't confirm with He Xi.
.
"What's wrong with you?" He Xi was shocked when he saw Gu Wenyu's expression changed drastically, thinking that something had happened.
"I gave this bracelet to my brother. My brother...he is also missing. I found this bracelet in the abandoned school last time. My brother's name is Gu Wentian." Gu Wenyu looked at He Xi blankly, as if she was like this
Just like if you keep watching, you can know the whereabouts of your brother.
