Mingluo and Ye Zhihan hid in the shadows of the bushes outside the forest. She felt that Ye Zhihan's behavior was very similar to her mother's.
When I was learning to ride a bicycle, I also agreed with my mother that she should always follow me. As a result, after she rode a hundred meters away and fell because she didn't know how to turn, she found that her mother was still behind her, waving at her from afar with a smile on her face.
Ye Zhihan also agreed to follow her at the beginning, but in the end he let her escape from the encirclement alone.
Ye Zhihan looked at her, looking like she was going to accuse him. His gloomy mood seemed to brighten a little. He replied, "Because it is to test your control of the Shadow Pool."
"How is it? Did I pass the Shadow Pool?" Ming Luo asked confidently.
"Yeah, it's passed." Ye Zhihan smiled easily, a rare sight for him in a long time. His cold and handsome face seemed to be melted by the sun. Ming Luo looked at his face and suddenly felt blushing. She thought to herself that Ye Zhihan's smile was too unfair.
However, Mingluo quickly withdrew her gaze because she always felt that hiding behind the bushes was not safe enough and they needed to leave here as soon as possible.
In addition, Ming Luo always felt that the process of their escape from the encirclement and pursuit was too smooth, as if someone had secretly left a way out for them.
After leaving the forest and the surrounding bush plains, the sky gradually darkened. After a long journey, the two of them finally arrived at a desolate town. It looked abandoned and no monsters were to be seen.
"It's so strange here." Ming Luo looked into the town cautiously. As night fell, the whole village was without a trace of light and looked dead.
Ye Zhihan looked up at the sky in the distance, which was about to end. Only a tiny tail of red and purple clouds remained. He said, "It's going to rain heavily tonight. Let's stay here for the time being."
Ming Luo nodded and followed Ye Zhihan into the town. The houses here were very dilapidated. Ming Luo was a little worried that even if it just rained, the roofs of these houses might not be able to hold up and would collapse.
After walking around the town for a while, they finally found a house with a relatively intact roof. Inside the collapsed courtyard wall grew a lively sycamore tree. A broken swing board was tied to its thick trunk. It was obvious that the owner who lived here before was very romantic.
"Let's stay here. I think the other houses are too dilapidated." Ming Luo frowned slightly. It seemed that the journey to another world must be linked to survival in the wild. Either survive in the cross-border selection competition, live a primitive life in a bamboo house in the deep mountains and forests, or stay in a dilapidated town.
Fat Tao leaned on Ye Zhihan's shoulder and said, "I think it's quite safe here, let's go in."
With the words of security detection expert Pang Tao, Mingluo felt much more at ease. She followed Ye Zhihan into the dilapidated house.
After a simple tidy up, Ye Zhihan leaned back in a chair to rest. Mingluo found a bed board, spread some straw on it and lay down first. She listened to the heavy rain pouring outside and the dripping sound of water leaking inside the house, and soon fell asleep holding Pang Tao.
This time she slept very soundly. In her dream, she leaned on the golden lion, feeling warm, soft and comfortable.
In her drowsiness, Mingluo seemed to hear the noisy sounds of a busy city. She opened her eyes in confusion and saw a completely different scene.
Ming Luo was not sleeping in a dilapidated house now, but in a neatly decorated room with an antique style. She lifted the quilt, put on her shoes, walked to the window and looked out. It turned out that there was a noisy street market outside, with vendors shouting in the ears, just like the prosperous and lively ancient cities in TV dramas.
It's strange. Mingluo clearly lived in a desolate village, so why did he wake up in this prosperous town?
Mingluo called out twice tentatively: "Ye Zhihan? Fatty? Are you there?"
She didn't hear a response, but instead a thin little maid stumbled in from outside the house. She looked at Mingluo nervously, with dark circles under her eyes and fear in her eyes.
"Miss...what do you want me to do for you?" The little maid knelt on the ground, too terrified to dare look up at Mingluo.
"Miss?" Ming Luo asked back. She ran to the dressing table, looked at herself in the mirror carefully, and said to herself, "That's right, I'm still me."
Many questions welled up in Mingluo's heart. Could it be that she had traveled to another ancient world after sleeping? But Ye Zhihan did not mention that there were other worlds besides the Suma Continent and the human world.
"Where is this?" Ming Luo walked forward and pulled the little maid up. The little maid was unspeakably light. She was obviously the same height as Ming Luo, but when touched, she seemed to weigh less than 70 kilograms. Ming Luo pulled her up with ease.
After the little maid stood up, her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't even speak clearly. "This is Hui... Huiyu Town. Miss, please comb... wash up first. We will be leaving for the Qiu family soon."
Ming Luo was a little confused. She scratched her head and continued to ask, "Whose family am I from? What are we going to do?"
The little maid looked at Mingluo doubtfully. When she met Mingluo's eyes, she quickly knelt down and explained, "You are the eldest daughter of the Meng family. We are going to the Qiu family to grab a bride."
"Kidnapping the bride!?" Ming Luo frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
"Don't tremble, get up quickly!" Ming Luo stepped forward again and pulled the little maid up.
When the little maid saw Ming Luo approaching her, she immediately prostrated herself on the ground and begged Ming Luo to spare her life, with tears as big as beans falling all over the floor.
Ming Luo: ??? I was just helping her up out of kindness...
Ming Luo gently patted the little maid's shoulder and persuaded her not to cry. It took her a long time to coax her into silence.
