By the time she was finally able to fall asleep peacefully, it was already daytime outside.
Without even having time to worry about how to explain to everyone when he woke up, Wen Qi fell directly into sleep.
After Feng Ce got out of bed and washed up, he kissed Wen Qi on the forehead, turned around, opened the gate and went to the underworld again.
Xing Kai and Zhou Xuyang waited downstairs for a long time but received no news from Feng Ce. After looking at each other with a sly smile, they followed Liu Ran into the depths of the forest to visit the nearby ancient village.
As for Liujiazhai where Liu Ran is, they can only wait for Wen Qi and Feng Ce to meet up with them before going there together. After all, the distance is quite far.
At the same time, on the fifth floor of the bamboo building, the sleeping hunters are gradually waking up.
Wen Qi slept until the afternoon, and she was awakened by hunger. She sat up dazedly, and a cup of warm milk was handed to her.
Wen Qi subconsciously opened his mouth, bit the straw, and drank it all in one breath.
After she finished drinking, she looked at Feng Ce, who was dragging the milk and dressed neatly. She cleared her throat and asked, "When did you get up?" Her voice was a little hoarse, but she sounded quite charming.
Feng Ce had a gentle smile on his face. He placed the empty cup on the bedside table, sat down, held the person in his arms, and said, "I only slept for more than three hours. I was too excited and couldn't fall asleep."
Wen Qi looked up at him, sighed, and said with some jealousy: "You don't even have dark circles under your eyes!"
Feng Ce nodded, "It's probably due to my physical condition." He stroked Wen Qi's back with his fingers and said, "Get up, wash up, and then go eat."
Wen Qi shuddered reflexively.
Feng Ce couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this, "You are so sensitive."
Wen Qi glared at him, then decisively threw off the quilt and got out of bed, walking towards the bathroom naked, with all the marks on his body exposed, like a trap to lure people into committing a crime.
Feng Ce's eyes suddenly darkened and his fingers moved subconsciously.
When they reached the bathroom door, Wen Qi turned around and smiled, provocatively: "Come on, let's hurt each other." She glanced down and snorted, "Let's see who will be uncomfortable."
After saying that, she turned and went into the bathroom.
Feng Ce sat on the edge of the bed, bent slightly, covered his eyes, and took a deep breath.
More than half an hour later, Wen Qi came out of the bathroom refreshed. She changed into light brown linen trousers and a white linen shirt, and tied the collar to the top. After making sure that no marks on her body were exposed, she came out of the cloakroom with peace of mind.
"Come downstairs and eat quickly. I'm starving."
Feng Ce looked her up and down, "You're wearing so much, aren't you hot?"
Wen Qi said seriously: "It's not hot, it's cold in the mountains at night!"
When passing by the third floor, Wen Qi asked, "Are they not back yet?"
Feng Ce: "Well, the ancient village is farther than I thought. I may not be able to come back tonight."
Wen Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. When they come back tomorrow, maybe they will forget what happened today!
It was not yet dinner time and there was nothing to eat in the buffet restaurant, so we could only order dishes.
Wen Qi did not order a set meal, but carefully selected a few dishes that looked ordinary and normal, and added a dish of chicken soup at the end.
Soon, the food was served, and it looked just as normal as its name! Wen Qi's eyes welled up with tears. After two whole days, she could finally have a full meal.
Feng Ce also ate a lot, and he was obviously in a good mood. There was always a smile on the corner of his lips, and even his attitude towards strangers became gentler.
Wen Qi pouted, why? She was the one who paid the price! But others got the benefit! Although this benefit didn't have any substantial effect.
After dinner, the sun just set.
Feng Ce looked around and asked, "Want to watch the sunset?"
Wen Qi was a little surprised, "Where can we watch it?" Besides, the whole sunset process only takes a few minutes. By the time they find a suitable place, the sun will probably have already set.
The two of them entered the forest, and the homestay disappeared behind them. Feng Ce exerted force on his hands and pulled Wen Qi into his arms, then he stepped forward and rushed out like an arrow.
The trees retreated rapidly like light and shadow. Wen Qi experienced the extreme speed in an instant. Not long after, Feng Ce stopped.
The rapid change in speed made Wen Qi dizzy, and she closed her eyes to relax.
Feng Ce said softly: "Look up."
Wen Qi did as he was told subconsciously, and when he opened his eyes he saw a huge orange-red sunset that looked like salted egg yolk.
It’s like working diligently and shining all day long, and finally can’t resist being lazy just before getting off work. The light of sunset is not dazzling at all, but incredibly soft.
"It's so beautiful." Wen Qi raised his hands as if trying to catch the sun.
Feng Ce put her down and reminded her, "Stand still."
Wen Qi subconsciously looked down at his feet, but only saw a thin branch!
It was only at this moment that she realized where they were standing to watch the sunset!
What are the most numerous and tallest things in the forest? Trees! Time is too short. Even with Feng Ce's speed, it is impossible to take her to the top of the mountain in just a few minutes. After all, he is only a human now! Therefore, the most ideal place is the top of the tree! A towering tree that is 100 meters high!
Wen Qi subconsciously grabbed Feng Ce's clothes and her body tensed up. Fortunately, her reason reminded her that there were many branches below where she could stand, so she didn't lose her composure immediately.
Feng Ce noticed her change and asked in disbelief, "You are afraid of heights?" He hugged her tightly, "But when I took you to the underworld before, I didn't see you this scared even when we were flying around."
Wen Qi took a deep breath to ease his nervousness, but his speech was still much faster, "Because the soul can float in the air and won't fall! People are different. If they fall from such a height, they will definitely die!"
Feng Ce couldn't help laughing, and held her waist tightly with one hand, "Don't worry, I won't let you fall, just look at the sunset, it's going to disappear soon."
Wen Qi held Feng Ce tightly and turned to look at the sunset. Sure enough, after a few words, only half of the salted egg yolk was left.
She had taken such a big risk to come here, she had to enjoy the sunset! After a while, Wen Qi suddenly said: "Actually, the earth rotates very fast."
Feng Ce hummed, then suddenly lifted her up and turned her around.
The two of them stood one in front and one behind, facing the sunset.
Wen Qi lost his grip on something and felt insecure. He couldn't help but panic in his eyes. "What are you going to do?"
"Don't be afraid." Feng Ce hugged her from behind, "Lean on me."
Wen Qi leaned back, but still didn't dare to relax.
Feng Ce felt helpless and stopped trying to persuade her. Before the sun set, he grabbed Wen Qi's hand and put a ring on her ring finger.
The ring was a very simple silver color, three centimeters wide, with no decorations such as gemstones, and only some incomprehensible spells engraved on it.
Wen Qi looked down and asked, "What is this?"
Feng Ce said: "The key to the gate will lead you directly to my palace in the underworld after it is opened."
Wen Qi was shocked and said in disbelief: "You just gave me the key to connect the Yin and Yang worlds?"
Feng Ce said as a matter of course: "You are the mistress of the underworld, how can you not even have the key to go home?" He tilted his head and kissed her cheek, and urged her: "Just use your soul power to refine it."
Refining the ring was very easy and it was done in a breath.
At this moment, Wen Qi suddenly felt that his soul had some inexplicable connection with the underworld, as if they were bound together?
Wen Qi suddenly felt like he had been cheated and slowly turned his head to look back.
Feng Ce smiled at her and said, "Congratulations, from now on you will be free from reincarnation." (End of this chapter)
