Journey to the Rose

Enter the entrance, turn left and go straight.

After experiencing the battle, Ruan Xi found that the road was very long.We walked together for more than half an hour before reaching the end, and there was no longer a straight road ahead.

He vaguely sketched a map in his mind.

He guessed that now they have come to the westernmost position of Maze City—that is, the lower left right corner of the rectangular maze.

According to Wen Kai's statement that "the exit is in the northeast direction", then they should go north now, that is to say, they need to choose a road on the right.

Sure enough, when we came to the end, the intersection here showed the word "Ding". Ruan Xi decisively led the team and chose to turn right, then turn right again, and then there was another fork intersection in front of us.

Continue to turn right.

Ten minutes later, they circled around and returned to their original place.

This is what Wen Kai warned, "Don't go around in circles."

It means that this is a small square bamboo forest surrounded by a circle of walkable roads.I just circled around and didn't go out at all, but circled in place.

Then, the plan to turn right cannot be implemented, and they can only go left.

Go left, there are two roads.

A road goes straight forward, but someone has gone to inquire, and before reaching the end of the road, there are still two intersections to pass.

With such a description, Ruan Xi felt that she was about to commit a difficult choice, so she decisively chose another path.

Keep going.

This road seems to be relatively long and wide, and the bamboo forest above the head no longer forms a small arch, but stands upright, allowing the moonlight to shine softly.

The environment is still dim, but compared to before, I can see the situation at close range a little bit clearly.

Ruan Xi was tired from walking, grunting and panting. He had to be alert to his surroundings and take care of his injured husband, which made his adventure trip even worse.However, Ruan Xi has a sense of accomplishment, he likes the feeling that Lu Zhenghe is protected by him.

The wind blew, the bamboo leaves shook, and the forest seemed to be hung with rattles, rattling.

Ruan Xi held down the handle of the knife, stood in front of Lu Zhenghe all of a sudden, moved his steps, and circled back and forth several times before confirming that it was just the wind and no one came yet.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

There were not many people left in the team, but most of them carried their luggage.Some people have big hearts, and they are still telling the friends who are running for their lives together to tell the next city and what to eat next to the next city.

Although Li Shen admired the spirit of "the soldiers and horses are not moving, the food and grass go first", but he was told that he was hungry, his stomach kept growling, and the movement was not small in a deep bamboo forest.

Of course, they are not the only ones on this journey.

Ever since the leading "Pioneer Officers" entered the maze city, the people who were going to enter the city later knew what they were going to do, and they became more courageous. They picked up their luggage and rushed into the maze.

People imitated their appearance in groups, lowered their center of gravity, walked lightly, and marched close to the edge of the road.

"You... drink some water? You and your friends have been working hard just now." Beta handed Li Shen water.

"what?"

Li Shen had never seen this battle before, so he shrank back subconsciously, but he really needed supplies. After thinking about it, he took the water, grinned, and smiled embarrassedly: "Thank you, it's okay. This It's all what I should."

Then, he twisted the bottle cap as he walked, walked to Ruan Xi and Lu Zhenghe, raised his head, poured a mouthful of mineral water into his throat, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Ruan Xi raised her chin, "Is it an omega?"

Li Shen: "No."

Ruan Xi: "Then you still say you should."

Dazed for a moment, Li Shen didn't think there was any problem with this sentence at all. After understanding Ruan Xi's meaning, he quickly explained: "I mean to protect the young master and you."

Lu Zhenghe, who had been silent on the side, spoke, and suddenly said: "Be careful that others misunderstand you."

"No way……"

Li Shen had an expression of "the central air conditioner doesn't know it". After meeting Ruan Xi's speechless gaze, he quickly changed the subject, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Doing multiple-choice questions in the maze is too fucking difficult."

"There is still a long way to go, and I feel that we have only gone half way." Ruan Xi said.

Li Shen drank the rest of the water in one gulp, "Half of it?"

"we should……"

Ruan Xi paused, closed his eyes gently, and recalled the road he had just walked, "I haven't reached the center of the maze, there is a place where the two roads meet. Wen Kai told me that if I got to the center, I should go to the center of the maze." can see them."

After finishing speaking, Ruan Xi's sharp eyes glanced at a relatively wide open space beside the road, which was closed on three sides and only one side had a road, but it just happened to form a convenient and secret hiding place.

In addition to bamboo, there are low bushes planted around the open space, and roses seem to be blooming among the bushes.

Lu Zhenghe seemed sleepy, his eyes wandered a bit, and he used the back of his hand to touch the wound on his back from time to time.He touched it a few times, met Ruan Xi's probing eyes, and whispered, "Itches."

Li Shen said a few words: "The young master's wound is probably re-scabbing."

Ruan Xicai didn't care whether Lu Zhenghe was willing or not, and quickly ran behind the other party, took out his practical little flashlight, thought about it, and was afraid of exposing the target, so he had to keep the flashlight on his waist.

Lifting off the outermost training uniform that Lu Zhenghe was wearing, his hands moved up along the bandages inside.

Even through the bandage, Ruan Xi also understood a little bit, and understood why couples all over the world like to touch each other's bodies, because the warm touch of the skin is indeed incomparable in words.

Thinking of this, Ruan Xi moved closer to him.

He felt the sticky liquid cling to the bandage.Then, he pulled out his hand, wiped it, raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhenghe, palm up, and held Lu Zhenghe like a baby.

Ruan Xi frowned and said, "You're bleeding again."

"No problem."

Lu Zhenghe also touched his face.Like stroking a kitten, she patted it gently, and finally turned her head away and kissed the corner of her eyebrows.

In this tense and exciting atmosphere, Ruan Xi was flushed red by the kiss, and stared at him a little shyly, "What are you doing kissing me?"

The sound of the bamboo forest, Li Shen didn't hear the previous conversation between the two clearly, only heard this sentence, as if he suddenly took a breath of air, then was choked by the wind, coughed frantically several times, pinched his neck and said: "This is me Can you listen..."

If it was before, Lu Zhenghe would definitely threaten him with death eyes, but now Young Master Lu who is immersed in love has big eyes, regardless of these things, his eyes never move away from his wife.

Lu Zhenghe said: "If the corner of your eyebrow is broken, it will probably scab over and leave a scar."

"..."

Ruan Xi was speechless, and gave Lu Zhenghe the hardest stare.

Can my small wound be compared with the disabling wound on your back!

Forget it, in this situation, no matter what Lu Zhenghe thinks he is okay, the injury is not a problem.

No way, Ruan Xi could only point to the open space, and suggested: "Where shall we go to rest?"

It's not completely bright yet, so it should be a while.

The biological clocks are almost the same, and some passers-by are already yawning.The yawn sound was contagious. After a while, everyone yawned one after another.The remaining seven or eight people who accompanied them before were too tired to keep their eyes open.

Li Shen has strong physical fitness, so he said that everyone should rest at the same place for half an hour before continuing to set off. He is in charge of standing guard and blowing the whistle if there is any situation.

So everyone else sat down and began to rest where they were.

The lights were dim, Ruan Xi squinted her eyes, and her eyes flicked across the jungle, but she couldn't see anything clearly.In the dark, people's senses other than vision are always particularly sensitive.

After two or three ten minutes, he moved the tip of his nose.

It feels a bit wrong.

Ruan Xi clearly felt that the temperature on her body was rising, like climbing stairs, the more she went up, the shorter her breath, and at the same time, there was an inexplicable warmth rushing up her spine.

This feeling is very familiar, it has happened to him before.Then every time...

damn...

No, this situation cannot drop the chain.

He took off his coat decisively, the chill penetrated into his bones, trying to wake himself up with the cold wind.Standing stupidly for a while, Ruan Xi breathed faster and faster, knowing that this was not the way, her first reaction was to wake up Lu Zhenghe.

Whether Lu Zhenghe fell asleep or not, he didn't know.

But Ruan Xi knew that he could no longer stay where he was, and he wanted to divert his attention as much as possible to do other things.

So, he bowed his back, bit the "Hell Guard Dog", carried the Xiaoyan Lingdao on his back, moved his steps, and cast his eyes on the road that continued to move forward.

"Li Shen..."

Ruan Xi squatted in front of Li Shen, and the next second after Li Shen woke up, he suddenly covered his mouth, and whispered: "I, Ruan Xi."

Li Shen opened his eyes wide, but there were still a few large characters in his eyes: What do you want to do again? !

Ruan Xi had to tell the truth: "...I'm in a bit of a situation, I seem to be in heat."

Hearing what Ruan Xi said, Li Shen's eyes widened, like copper bells, accompanied by a slight struggle.

Ruan Xi understood this time, what Li Shen meant was: Then why are you covering my mouth!

"Get up and watch," Ruan Xi lowered his voice as much as possible, still wanting to call him a "stupid", "I'll go explore the road, blow the wind and sober up."

"You go by yourself?" When Li Shen heard that the man was about to act alone again, a carp jumped up, "What if you are killed?"

"you……"

What can I do?

Ruan Xi drooped her eyelids, opened them again silently, and smiled very obediently: "Then you don't have me as an unfilial son."

Li Shen: "..."

No matter what Li Shen said, Ruan Xi felt that she must not stay beside Lu Zhenghe any longer.

This kind of thing of estrus in place is something that he, as a soldier on the battlefield (at least for now), absolutely cannot allow to happen.He can't let his gender be a drag.

Leaving the "small open space" and walking forward for less than ten meters, it suddenly became clear.

He walked to the center of maze city.

It seems that the size of the city is gradually shrinking?The area is smaller than he imagined.

There is a statue in the center, which is the god worshiped by the people of Maze City.

This deity has a lion-headed body, holds a sharp knife and a battle-axe, and tramples on a soul under his feet. He is an image of an out-and-out violent maniac.But that's not the end.

The locals see the end of the killing as a way for the stranger to get out of the maze safely.In other words, as long as they can go out, they will choose to let it go instead of continuing to come out from the bamboo forest on the side of the end point to hunt down.

Ruan Xi didn't pay too much attention to the sculpture, but trotted forward, holding the gun tightly in her hand.He ran panting for a while, and the more he ran, the more he felt that something was wrong. He felt that he was walking on a sideways road, and he had come to the easternmost end of the maze. Next, he should find his way in the north direction.

But there is no road to the north, all the roads are to the south, narrow and long.

Wrong way...

Before entering the "small open space", he took the wrong path. The correct one should be the one that made him suffer from difficulty in choosing.

Ruan Xi retreated to the sculpture in the center of the maze.

As soon as he stopped, his attention fell to the back of his neck again.He felt that it was very hot there, exuding an aura that made him intoxicated, like some kind of fermented sweet wine, sticking sticky to the pinna, softly speaking some ambiguous language.

There were footsteps behind him.

Ruan Xi resisted the sense of confusion in her head, clenched her fists tightly, and turned around, only to see a familiar figure standing on the way.

It was Lu Zhenghe.

It's all here, why not...

Ruan Xi hooked his fingers at Lu Zhenghe, the corners of Ruan Xi's mouth curled up, his eyes were not used to the darkness, and he squinted: "Come here."

The wind is sweet and vague.

It blows feebly.

Dragging Ruan Xi to a hidden place by the bamboo forest, Lu Zhenghe breathed faster, pulled Ruan Xi's shoulder with his backhand, slid his fingers to his neck, closed his tiger's mouth, and lifted him up.

Ruan Xi was forced to raise her head, breathing heavily, her face flushed, she could no longer feel the wind blowing through the bamboo forest.

Next door are people who are resting.

How can this situation...

Ruan Xi didn't give up, she really didn't believe how powerful her body could be, she bit her lip, pulled off the hood of her jacket, lowered her head, and exposed her part that was more fragile than her neck in the open sky.

"I...you try to bite me again?" With her head buried, Ruan Xi's desperately lowered voice became soft.

"Does biting the tube work? It doesn't seem to work."

Lu Zhenghe whispered and covered his mouth.Ruan Xi had already "burned" out of his sanity due to the heat, and his voice was also very loud, "Don't worry, don't talk."

Maze·68 Husband, I was hacked...
