"We should be leaving."

The two separated, and Katz didn't straighten up—he needed to bend down a little to kiss Sissy. The forehead of the purple-haired man was still pressed against Sylvia's, and the bridge of his nose, which was too perfect and upright, made them rub against each other intimately. tip of the nose.

"It won't be long before dawn."

The red eyes were so close together that Katz was everywhere in her eyes.

It's just that when he said the last sentence, the inexplicable emotion in his tone made her completely coincide with him for a moment.

That is the longing for sunshine.

It's not that she has experienced it before, she also wanted to walk into the sun, even that man's lifetime wish was nothing more than that, she had waited for 400 years, but finally dissipated under the rising sun, that was too much for her. short.

A race like the Pillars, so powerful but only able to go out at night, no wonder Kaz wanted more, he was so proud and so ambitious.

But what would he have to do to conquer the sun?

"Esdis should have been waiting for us. I guess he has hunted new animals and will have new clothes to wear when he returns."

While talking like this, Katz hugged Sissy in his arms again, walked to the edge in a few steps, and jumped down from the mountainside without blinking his eyes.

The weightlessness of the free fall made Sylvia scream, and the feeling of floating up from Kaz’s arms reminded her of going to the amusement park with her father to ride the roller coaster in the first life, except for holding on tightly Beyond the bumper, he could only keep his eyes tightly shut.

She hugged the purple-haired man's neck, feeling that her own strength might even strangle him to death, for fear of falling out of his arms, noticing Sissy's reaction, Kaz snorted, and the strength of her arm became stronger some.

After returning to the stable ground, Katz said when her heart rate almost recovered.

"If you like this place, you can come here often in the future."

"We can leave earlier, next time."

Sylvia said dryly, still in shock.

"That way you can walk down the mountain in a good way."

Katz's chest throbbed, which she assumed was his consent.

However, it seems that he did not return along the same road. Even after sleeping for a while, she still roughly remembered the scenery when he came, and there were no huge rocks or loess in sight.

"Should we go somewhere else first?"

Sylvia raised her head in the man's arms and looked up at him, asking curiously.

This time, Katz was silent for a while. He stared ahead and did not respond to Sissy's gaze. At such a close distance, it was the first time that she could distinguish the indifference and... severe cold in his eyes.

Not knowing if she said something wrong, Sylvia shrank her shoulders, a little at a loss.

After a long while, realizing that he was lost in thought and did not reply, the woman in his arms carefully lowered his head and lowered his eyes again, only then did Katz realize that he should organize his words to comfort her.

"...No, we're not going back."

He considered it for a while, and finally decided not to say anything to Sissy—although nothing happened yet...he had a hunch that there would be another quarrel in the clan soon.

She shouldn't be disturbed by these annoying things, and she would only worry if she knew about it.

Sissy was on the same side as himself and Estes, and he was glad that she had just woken up to get this answer from her mouth.

Her body is so weak, she just needs to live a carefree and happy life, and wait for the day when he finds a better way and walks into the sun together.

"After discussing it with Estes, I plan to move out and live alone - there are many people who will leave the group when they become adults."

The purple-haired man said lightly that he did not deceive Sissy. Many of the younger generation of Zhuren would indeed stay away from the base, but at most they would be in a nearby location, and they would not choose such a far away place like them.

"Or do you want to go back there? Will you miss close friends?"

Sylvia shook her head hesitantly. Apart from Estis, the only thing she had was Katz.

"Sissy" was very close to Katz when she was young, and she would not be rejected by him. Naturally, other girls were more or less alienated from her.

As my brother said, she was Katz's little follower at the time, and she didn't see anyone else in her eyes.After sleeping for so long, who else could be her close friend?

She hadn't even spoken a word to anyone other than these two men.

"We've been preparing for this a while ago, planning to take you there directly, but we didn't expect you to wake up first, which is a good thing."

Katz's tone softened again.

"I hope you will like it when you see it."

It was a good thing, nothing could have been more satisfying—when Sissy woke up he couldn't help but wonder if she would be on the other side, and now he had an exact answer, but it wasn't enough.

He couldn't let her go back to that kind of place. The people in the clan were too conservative and pursued comfort too much. He would never allow their thoughts to change Sissy's. There would be no such chance.

They stopped at the edge of the forest. There should be some trees that are hundreds of years old. The thick trunks cannot be surrounded by a few people hand in hand, exposing the intricate roots of the land, and moss crawling all over the gaps.

Katz put Sissy on the ground, and as soon as she landed, she stepped on the thick fallen leaves that had accumulated for many years, and her whole body sank a little.

There are no traces of the life of other pillar people. She doesn't know if there are humans now, but obviously humans should not choose this kind of place to live. There are too many deadly things in such a forest for fragile humans. Maybe Just the toxin secreted by a bug the size of a fingernail can kill a person in seconds.

But it seems that Zhuren will not be afraid, and she quite likes it here.The sky has begun to gradually brighten, but the sun has not yet crossed the horizon. With that little light, she began to look at the forest.

"there."

Katz pointed in a direction, and she looked along, slowly opening her eyes wide.

How many surprises did she not know?

It was a tree house of considerable size, built with logs of moderate thickness. Even though the current light was not enough to fully see its appearance, Sylvia fell in love with it at first sight.

Katz's kiss landed on Sissy's hair.

"When I traveled around the world, I saw humans build such a building, but the ground in the forest was too wet, so I built it on a tree."

Sylvia nodded mechanically. Now she knows that it is time for human beings to have their own civilization. Unlike the Pillars who are used to living in caves or underground, they build livable houses on the ground with soil, bricks, and wood. .

There are indeed many shadows left by humans, even though they are simple, they are definitely not crude. The logs on the roof are tightly woven together with straw ropes, a bit like a raft, and they are neatly covered with large leaves-enough to make her whole People sit on leaves as big as they float in the water.There is a "window" in the wall, but it is not too big to ensure that too much sunlight will not penetrate.

"Go in and have a look."

Katz picked her up again, and when she reached the wooden platform, she realized that the place was much bigger than it looked from below. After all, Katz's height was there, and if it was used as a place to live in the future, it would not be too restrictive .

"You spent a lot of time."

An exclamation came from the room, and Sylvia hurried in. It turned out that Estes was already waiting for them here.

The style inside is different from what she imagined. It's not that the outside is made of wood, but the floor is paved, no, it should be a thin layer of something she doesn't know. It's a bit like a concrete floor. , know what to do without asking.

In front of Estes there was a steaming pot that was "gurgling". It was thought that the ground floor was used for fire prevention. It might be a special fireproof material, and there were other moisture-proof measures on the walls. The living area and the The rest area is simply separated.

Sylvia smiled a little embarrassedly, smelling the aroma of food, she realized that she was very hungry, and soaking in hot springs was also a physical exertion.

"Sorry, I accidentally fell asleep for a while."

The white-haired man shook his head, he pulled out an animal skin from behind and threw it at Sissy's feet.

"This one, do you like it?"

She didn't know what kind of animal it was. It had white fur as a whole, and some irregular gray and black patches. The fur was short and fine, and it looked very soft.

After squatting down and touching it curiously, Sylvia nodded in a good mood, but it should be suitable as a shawl against the cool wind in the morning and evening.

As for the cloth strips on Kaz and Estis, she guessed that they were made by humans. They exchanged some items with humans. The Zhuren never planted crops or raised animals. It is easy to get something that is very rare for humans.

In a few casual glances at the place where the tribe lived, she also saw women wearing pearls around their necks. For humans in this era, pearls are still precious things that people have to risk their lives to find in shallow seas. .

"Let Kaz do it for you, I don't care."

Estis chuckled, he looked at his sister narrowly, now he is no longer in charge of such things.

This made Sylvia a little embarrassed. She said that she didn't seem to know how to do anything. The two of them have always taken care of her. Maybe her brother still has such an obligation, but Kaz actually...

But the purple-haired man just nodded his head and didn't think it was any trouble.

He asked Sissy to sit on a simple wooden bench, and served some with the tableware he had already prepared—it seemed that they were brought from there, and some items made of pure gold were somewhat incompatible with this cabin.

"Esdis and I still have something to talk about."

Sylvia nodded, her attention was completely focused on the fragrant broth. She didn't know what seasoning was added or what kind of meat it was, but it was more fragrant than all the meat she had eaten , and some spices that may enhance the taste are floating with the oil flowers.

Pillars can directly absorb other creatures with their bodies, but that doesn't mean they don't need to satisfy their appetites.

The two men walked out of the wooden house and jumped down from the air until Sissy couldn't hear the conversation clearly. Estis's face turned cold.

"They're talking about that thing again—about Ai Zhehongshi and Shiguimian."
