The city, shrouded in purple mist, gradually returned to calm.
Meng Feifei was stunned for a while before getting up from the ground, dusting herself off.
"Is this... the end?"
Meng Feifei walked to the edge of the building's rooftop and looked down at the entire city.
But in reality, after Linna's dark clone disappeared, the purple mist reappeared.
Now there's nothing left to see; the city is completely shrouded in purple mist.
Meng Feifei murmured, "Brother Nai, sister-in-law, it's such a pleasant surprise to see you alive, but in this world, being alive isn't always a good thing... I hope you're alright, sigh..."
Buzz—
Just then, Meng Feifei suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, causing him to gasp, "Hiss..."
A buzzing sound filled my head, along with eerie and sinister whispers of demonic energy...
"...Okay, I'll be right there."
Meng Feifei responded in her mind.
He looked down again at the city shrouded in purple mist, remaining silent for a long while, lost in thought.
Not long after, he turned and left.
......
After a moment of dizziness, Linna slowly opened her eyes.
The wind and sand were very strong, howling loudly.
The surrounding area was a desolate Gobi Desert, and the sand beneath my feet was fine sand.
Night fell beside him, her eyes closed, still asleep.
Clearly, they had already left the eerie mountain and sea city.
Oh, right...
Where is Tang Hongshan?
Linna quickly turned around and looked around.
Soon, he discovered that Tang Hongshan was also not far away, right next to him and Ye Wan'er.
However, the way Tang Hongshan landed after being brought there by the teleportation array was clearly not very elegant.
Its head was stuck in the sand, its two legs were sticking out and pointing towards the sky, and its body was buried in the ground in a "兕" shape...
Linnaeus immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Zhou lay behind a rock, holding a pair of binoculars, seemingly observing the situation in a certain direction from afar.
Beside her were two other people: a middle-aged man and a young girl who was a little older than her.
Lin Nai was stunned when she saw the two people next to Jiang Zhou.
That middle-aged man was actually Old Zhang!
That slightly older young girl was Lin Yuxi!
"How's it going? Any movement?" Old Zhang asked, a cigarette dangling from his lips, as he looked at Jiang Zhou.
Jiang Zhou took down the binoculars, shook her head, and said, "Not for now. The purple fog shrouding that city has thickened again, and we can't see anything."
Lin Yuxi said, "Just to be on the safe side, let's hide here for a while. They'll definitely come after us."
Old Zhang nodded: "Hmm... I think that's fine too."
Lin Yuxi turned her head and saw Lin Nai: "Hey, you're awake?"
Lin Nai paused, taken aback.
Lin Yuxi walked up to him, bent down, placed her hands on her knees, and tilted her head to look at him with suspicion: "Did you cause the chaos in Shanhai City just now? Are you also a member of the rebels? I've never seen you before."
"I..." Lin Nai opened her mouth, then realized what was going on.
He still looks like a middle-aged man with a full beard.
Even at night, he still looked like a young man.
Lin Yuxi clearly didn't recognize them.
"Waaaaah! Waaaaah! Waaaaah..."
At that moment, Tang Hongshan's voice came.
His head was stuck upside down in the sand, and his two legs, which were sticking out, were kicking and trying to pull themselves out of the sand.
His long trench coat had fallen over due to gravity, revealing his slightly bulging belly, which looked rather comical.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yuxi and Lao Zhang rushed over: "Oh, I'm so sorry, Captain Tang, we almost forgot about you..."
Linnaeus: "..."
After much effort, the two finally managed to pull Tang Hongshan out of the sand. Tang Hongshan spat out several mouthfuls of sand, brushed it out of his hair, and looked quite disheveled.
Tang Hongshan's long hair was a mess. He gasped for breath and muttered, "You two... you didn't die at the hands of those lunatics and monsters, but you almost suffocated..."
Lin Yuxi and Lao Zhang both chuckled awkwardly.
Jiang Zhou asked, "Captain Tang, have you completed your mission?"
"Don't even mention it, we didn't even get close. At night, all those dark monsters come out, and we can't move around in the city at all."
Tang Hongshan waved his hand.
"Is that so..." Lin Yuxi and the others were somewhat disappointed.
“However…” Then, Tang Hongshan raised his head again, his eyes filled with a different kind of emotion, and looked at Lin Nai: “There is another surprising and unexpected discovery.”
"An unexpected discovery?" Lin Yuxi and Lao Zhang asked in confusion.
Following Tang Hongshan's gaze, they turned to look at Lin Nai.
"I almost died at the hands of those monsters." Tang Hongshan smiled. "Fortunately, I ran into my old friend, who saved me."
"An old friend?"
Lin Yuxi and Lao Zhang looked at Lin Nai's face, and then at Tang Hongshan's eyes, which were full of affection, emotion, and emotion.
His eyes were filled with tenderness.
Neither Lin Yuxi nor Lao Zhang had ever seen Tang Hongshan look like that.
After a moment of silence, Lin Yuxi leaned close to Tang Hongshan's ear and whispered, "Captain Tang, he's not your old flame, is he? How long ago was that? How come we didn't know?"
"..." Tang Hongshan's smile vanished instantly.
"You two idiots! What kind of old flame is he! He's Lin Nai! And besides, I'm straight!"
Lin Yuxi and Lao Zhang: "???"
Jiang Zhou was also surprised: "Lin...Lin Nai??"
“Uh…” Lin Nai gave a wry smile and said softly, “Hi… Yu Xi, Lao Zhang… and Jiang Zhou, it’s been a long time.”
Lin Yuxi paused for a moment, blinked, and then whispered to Tang Hongshan, "Captain Tang, are you missing Lin Nai so much that you're hallucinating? Wasn't Lin Nai confirmed to have fallen into the interdimensional rift and died a long time ago? Besides, Lin Nai was much more handsome than him. How could he have grown into such a scruffy old man after not seeing him for more than three years?"
Linnaeus: "..."
"..." Tang Hongshan's lips twitched, then he said helplessly, "Alright Lin Nai, hurry up and take off your disguise. These are all our own people!"
