east corner

where is this?

When Hui Hui opened his eyes, what he saw was a town.

All the houses are spotless, Qingshi Long Street, the doors of the shops on the left and right are open, everything is very good, but there is no one there.

Isn't he in the volcano in the ghost domain?How come here?

Zhong Gui walked down the street step by step, and as he walked, he discovered something unusual.

Chong Gui narrowed his eyes slightly, and scanned the street again.There are pastry shops, jewelry shops, taverns, libraries——

But there is no butcher shop, no medical center, no bank here... How can a normal town not have these things?

On second thought, a normal town would not be devoid of people.

Returning to look around, the most important thing right now is that he should find a way to go back. Before he was dragged here, he vaguely felt that there was a change outside, that Shen Lan and Xuanying might be in danger.

but……

Returning to thinking, he suddenly heard something, and he walked quickly following the sound.

Returning to his expression, he froze for a moment - he saw himself.

Maybe it's not correct to think so, it's just a person who looks exactly like him.

Why did he say that, because that person has no similarities except that he looks the same as him.

The man was dressed in a blue robe, with dark lines of silver threads floating on it, which could be seen to be extremely luxurious.The demeanor of the whole body is condensed and stern, which definitely doesn't seem like something that would happen in a comeback.

This is a hidden room, or it may just be a temporary place. The whole room is empty, only a table is placed in the middle, and two low stools are placed on both sides of the table.

Sitting on one side was a person with the same appearance as Zhong Gui, and on the other side was a tall and stern man.

The man looks exceptionally handsome, with deep outlines and golden eyes, giving off a feeling of indifference and thickness—he is not a human race.

Besides, this man's whole body was very wet and heavy, filled with a lot of water vapor, and he felt a sudden pain in his heart.

He has seen in the book that if the monster race that lives on water has water vapor around it, it is a sign of overflowing spiritual power.

...The overflow of spiritual power indicates that the inner alchemy of this monster is dissipating and will disappear soon.

Even so, this man is still full of nobility, with a kind of alienation that is often seen by superiors, and he does not show any signs of fatigue.

The two looked at each other in silence, until the silver fox in the man's arms let out a low whimper, the man lowered his head and gently stroked the silver fox, the silver fox narrowed his eyes slightly, and the man's eyes revealed a gentleness that didn't match his temperament .

When the man raised his head again, he opened his mouth: "How did you become like this?"

"Maybe I am."

The man frowned: "He won't want you to become like this."

"He's gone."

The man's stern eyebrows loosened slightly.

Then, the person who looked the same as Chong Gui asked him, "What happened to Hu Xuan?"

The man looked down at the squinting silver fox in his arms, his eyes filled with sadness.Maybe it was a thousand threads, the man opened his mouth, but in the end it only turned into a sigh.

Chong Gui frowned: "You should know that I can't take care of him for too long."

"If you can take care of him for a while, it's just for a while. He's gone, and you are the only person I trust."

"What about you? You're running out of time. Where are you going?"

"I still have some things to do." After the man finished speaking, he drank the wine on the table.Then he stood up and walked to the door.

The man took one last look at the silver fox who was having fun by himself, and then slowly withdrew his gaze: "This is probably the last time we meet, let's say goodbye and come back."

At this moment, it seemed that some strange picture flooded into Chonggui's mind, and Chonggui staggered slightly, holding on to the window sill next to him.

The man had disappeared through the door.

Seeing the drooping eyes of 'Return', he was silent for a while, gently stroking the silver fox in his arms, and he saw a drop of tear hit the silver fox's fur.

There was silence in the room, 'Return' wiped his eyes, as if he was asking the silver fox again, or just talking to himself: "How did we get to where we are today. Is this our end?"

In an instant, a great sadness welled up in his heart, Chong Gui caressed his face in disbelief, and he also shed tears.

'Return' stood up holding the fox, and said in a low voice, "From now on, there are only two of us left."

With that said, the two disappeared.

Returning back was a little dazed, looking at the empty room, it was difficult to sort out the mixed memories in his mind for a while.

Before he could react, the screen changed to another mansion.Chonggui raised his head and saw the word Hu Mansion written on the plaque.

'Return' came from a distance with the silver fox in his arms, and the door of the Hu Mansion was opened, as if he had received the news early and came out to greet him.Seeing a man and a fox approaching, the young man hurriedly responded and said, "You are tired from running around all the way. Please come inside, the master is waiting for you."

'Return' just gave him a cold look, and didn't reply, the attendant accompanied him with some embarrassment.Chonggui doesn't know how long it's been between this "Return" and the "Return" in the last picture, but he just found that the hostility around him has become heavier and full of blood, and his temperament will not change so much in a short period of time , there must have been a long period of time in between.

'Return' strode across the threshold and quickly passed through the corridor, leaving only an afterimage.

When he walked into the living room, there was already a middle-aged man who was dressed luxuriously and had a graceful temperament waiting inside.

With a flash of 'Return', he had already sat on the main seat. He gave the middle-aged man a cold look. The middle-aged man paused, smiled and sat down next to him.

"My lord, everyone in the Hu family will keep your kindness in mind for taking care of Ah Xuan." The middle-aged man cupped his hands.

The middle-aged man was only interested in greeting 'Return', and didn't care that Hu Xuan in his arms couldn't even transform into a human form.

'Returning' eyes were slightly heavy, but perhaps thinking of his departure, Hu Xuan had only his family to rely on, 'Returning' tried his best to ease his expression: "Fox King, I have something important to go out this time. , I have no time to take care of Ah Xuan, so I will send him back first, and I will definitely come back to pick him up when things are over in the next day."

The middle-aged man stroked his beard with a smile: "Everything is under the orders of His Holiness."

As if hearing the mention of 'Chonggui', he realized the silver fox in 'Chonggui''s arms, and pretended to be surprised: "What's wrong with Ah Xuan?"

'Return' concealed the disgust in his eyes, and replied patiently: "He has suffered some injuries, and I'm afraid he won't be able to transform in a short time. I hope the Fox King will take good care of him."

The middle-aged man hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Please rest assured, Your Honor."

'Return' looked at the silver fox in his arms, frowned slightly, made up his mind, and handed it to the middle-aged man.The middle-aged man took it, and the silver fox seemed to sense that "return" was leaving him. He murmured and scratched, wanting to return to his arms, and scratched several wounds on the middle-aged man's hand. The smile on the young man's face remained unchanged, but a ruthless look flashed across his eyes.

His expression was fully seen by 'Return', and he said in a deep voice, "Ah Xuan, be obedient."

Perhaps because he had never seen Zhong Gui face it so calmly before, the silver fox calmed down, and whimpered a little bit aggrievedly, tears welling up in his beautiful fox eyes.

"Wait here for me obediently, I will definitely come back to pick you up."

The silver fox seemed to understand, and retracted into the middle-aged man's arms, but stared at 'Return' unblinkingly with a pair of watery eyes.

'Return' turned his eyes away, and bowed his hands to the middle-aged man: "Farewell."

Then disappeared in a flash.

'Return' left Hu's mansion, he took a last look at this magnificent mansion, coughed a few times, turned and left.

The picture ended here, and the whole body quickly turned into pitch black.

Chong Gui felt his body float up, no matter how hard he tried, it was in vain.

Immediately afterwards, a rainbow light poured into his body, like a raging fire burning the meridians, the muscles and bones were torn apart bit by bit and then grew back bit by bit, the pain was so painful.Returning to endure the pain, without making a sound, finally passed out.

In the pitch-black space, only the returned body was quietly suspended in the air.

After a long time, a voice sounded in the darkness: "He finally came."

Another voice sounded: "Yes."

The previous voice said, "What he asked us to do, we have now fulfilled."

"Yes," said the latter voice.

The previous voice said: "His master seems to be here too, strange, he is not..."

The voice behind could not be heard clearly, and the two voices that came from nowhere seemed to have gone away.
