It was already late at night when Yuanxing returned to the broken house. Wen Ke still supported his eyes and refused to go to bed. He was relieved to see him come in.

The owner of the bun shop is obviously not a normal phenomenon.

He didn't say out his full questions, but just stepped forward to help the monk dust off the snow behind him.

Then he lay down beside the fire.

Yuan Xing sat cross-legged, waiting for the flames to dry the water vapor on his body, and suddenly he seemed to remember something again. He smiled and looked at the young man, saying, "It's not convenient for my friend. It seems that I am going to make a mistake. I don't know what the donor plans."

Wen Ke didn't feel much disappointed, and hesitated for a moment before he hesitating: "Can you follow the master?" Finally, he spoke out the decision he had made when he was alone. He took a long breath, his heart was pounding especially hard, and he was afraid of being rejected again.

However, Yuan Xing was not surprised, as if he had known that he would have received such an answer.

"I am planning to return to Qingzhou, and it's okay for the donor to follow him, but..." He looked at the young man seriously, with a complicated tone: "Will the future road be very hard, can the donor bear it?"

"I'm not afraid of suffering." Wen Ke was stunned at first, then sat upright in joy, and nodded repeatedly to the monk.

Yuan Xing looked at him deeply and said after a long time, "Donor is going to rest early, and we will start heading north tomorrow morning."

Wen Ke once again focused his attention and went back to bed, but he couldn't sleep for a while.

Yuan Xing saw his excited look, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it disappeared in an instant.

Before I knew it, it was late at night, and the snoring of a boy finally came from beside me, but Yuan Xing was unable to fall asleep without any intention and could not meditate peacefully.

He forced himself to cheer up and picked up the firewood beside him and added it to the bonfire. Perhaps there was still moisture on the wood, and the flames in the broken house were crackling, sparks were rising.

The violently beating flames pulled his shadow to the forefront, and even the broken walls were shivering in it, and they were trembling.

And as the shadow spreads, his thoughts gradually drift away...

----------------

Over the years, Yuanxing has traveled many times, and it can be considered as summarizing some experience.

He can choose the starting point. The arrival location is generally not far from the mission target, but it is also random.

Introducing deviated history to the right track. For such a big task, there will be many so-called task goals. Who knows where it will be transmitted?

For example, I traveled to the scene of the murder once before...

So as soon as the dizziness passed in this teleportation, he used his skills to condense his whole body.

Then, before he could see clearly what environment was around him, a white light exploded in front of him. He subconsciously closed his palms and clamped a steel knife that was slashing towards the door.

If he is just an ordinary person, or without any warning, he will be injured when facing this.

Even if Liuli Yu’s body is incompetent, it is inevitable that it will hurt.

Therefore, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. Amitabha.

Yuan Xing's eyes turned cold and he stared at the person who attacked him, and then he was stunned.

This seemed to be a closed space, surrounded by darkness and coldness. Only an eternal light on the wall brought a faint beating light here.

Standing in the light was a young man with a disheveled hair. His clothes were covered with stains and his original color could not be seen. He was looking at him in horror at this moment.

The attacker was the man dressed up in costume, and he was also embarrassed, his eyes were deeply sunk. He held the knife in both hands, as if he wanted to pull the weapon back from Yuan Xing's hand. However, he was so irritated that his face was so blue veins were rising and he couldn't move at all.

Yuan Xing looked at the two people in front of him in confusion. He seemed to be powerful and powerful with one move, but he lost his sharpness and was easily restrained by himself.

After only a few breaths, the other party seemed to have lost strength, and the force of drawing the knife became much smaller.

"Why do the two donors attack me as soon as they meet?" Yuan Xing asked softly, handing forward with both hands. The strong man took a few steps in a row and could not stabilize his body. Finally, he fell to the ground. He glanced lightly again. The force of these two people seemed very limited to him, and they didn't look very good, and it seemed that there was no threat.

"Yuan, Master Yuanxing?" The thinner young man suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?" Yuan Xing blinked.

"It's me..." The young man took two steps forward, completely exposing himself to the trembling lights. He stroked the hair covered with his face behind his head, revealing a pale and handsome face, and said excitedly: "It's me, Bai Jingcheng..."

----------------

Yuanxing circled around the stone chamber, groping the patterns on the wall while patting hard.

"No, useless..." Bai Jingcheng was originally eating dry food. When he looked up and saw the monk's behavior, he hurriedly took the water bag and got used to a large mouthful of water, and then stroked his chest and said, "We have been trapped here for two days. During this period, he tried all kinds of ways, but it didn't work." At this point, his eyes suddenly lit up and his tone turned excited: "How did the master come here? Can you take us out?"

The burly and strong man next to him was also swallowing dry food, but he didn't raise his head, and he didn't dare to look at the monk, with a look of frustration.

Yuan Xing did not answer, but instead observed the stone chamber again with the light of the eternal lamp. It was not big, and the situation inside was clear at a glance.

Empty, only piled with human waste at one foot. Looking at Bai Jingcheng and the others' mental state, it was obvious that they had been trapped here for a long time.

Fortunately, the boulder was not closely related to the surrounding walls. Wind penetrated through the gaps, allowing the air to circulate. Otherwise, what he sent over and saw would be two corpses.

Then, Yuan Xing felt the direction of the wind and turned his eyes to the blocked rock with dense marks of chopping on it.

"This is the exit?" he asked.

"Yes, the earthquake came too suddenly, and our master and servant were trapped without any reaction. We knew that there was a passage behind us, but the stone could not be split or pried, so we were completely trapped here. Master still..." Bai Jingcheng sighed, but before he finished speaking, he could not continue. His dejected expression gradually solidified, and finally became stunned.

I saw that Yuan Xing was like a casual wave of his palm, and qi powers that could be seen in the naked eye gushed out and hit the huge rock. With the sound of shattering, the huge rock collapsed bit by bit.

Seeing that the attack was effective, he nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Bai Jingcheng and asked, "What did the donor say just now? I didn't hear it clearly."

"No, nothing, I said we can go out."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a building underneath built using a natural cave, covering a large area.

Yuan Xing thought this was the tomb of some princes and nobles, but Bai Jingcheng, who was holding a torch with his companions, shook his head and explained that this place was an altar built by his ancestors in ancient times, but later his spiritual energy declined and was forgotten by the world.

If there had been no earthquake before, they would not have been almost wiped out, only two people survived.

Yuan Xing also sighed when he remembered the corpse he saw when he came out.

Although the landform here undergoes great changes due to earthquakes, some risks have occurred during this period, and even caught up with two small-scale aftershocks.

But the innate master Yuanxing is present, and he can protect both of them.

After about an hour, they finally felt the sunshine again.

The exit of the altar was under a stone cliff, and crawled out of the cave was the camp where Bai Jingcheng and others were stationed.

At this time, the tents in the camp were damaged and buried by stones falling from the sky, and even collapsed big trees were lying in the middle, which was a mess.

Seeing this, Bai Jingcheng and Bai Wu didn't care about being excited anymore and quickly stepped forward to search for everything they could use.

Because of the constant aftershocks, although Yuan Xing was full of questions, he endured that he had no answer and came forward to help.

The three of them moved quickly, and after collecting useful items, they hurriedly left the dangerous area.

But where is it really safe under disaster?

All three of them had the ability to do it and soon arrived at the town at the foot of the mountain, which is said to be very prosperous.

But before I could get to the place, Yuan Xing's heart was cold.

Devastated and tragic.

The town is still there, but half of the city walls fell. Looking around, there is almost no complete building, with ruins everywhere.

Surviving people flipped through wood and stones, trying to find relatives or corpses buried below.

At first there were crying everywhere, but later, because of the loss of strength, the sound gradually became less and turned into a few sad crying. People shuttled through the ruins, numb and desperate.

This is a disaster.

Yuan Xing and the others looked at each other, and then rushed into the town without saying a word.

People who practice martial arts have clear ears and eyes, and are strong. Their joining makes the rescue operations much more efficient.

But this was a rare earthquake. It happened late at night two days ago, and many people stopped moving in their sleep.

Bai Jingcheng's identity as an official played a great role. After the county magistrate died, he organized the remaining yamen runners to maintain post-disaster order.

At this time, people have already understood the law that there will be a major epidemic after a major disaster.

The fate comes from later generations and understands the truth better, so I made a lot of suggestions.

Except for those involved in the search and rescue, the rest were placed on flat land far away from the ruins. All the food and medicines found were managed and allocated in a unified manner, and several toilets were built in a step-by-step manner.

Regulations such as drinking boiled water, sprinkling quicklime around, washing hands frequently, etc., can be implemented after punishing several reluctant people.

The injured were carried to the camp and treated by the surviving doctor. As for the body found, a depression far away from the water source was found and a pit was dug deep. In fact, cremation was the safest method, but the ancients emphasized the need to be buried in peace. In order to stabilize the emotions of the survivors, even if the Yanxing tried his best to talk, he could only do so.

After two more days of busy life, even Yuanxing was so tired that he couldn't stand it. The support from the Fucheng finally arrived, bringing news from the outside world.

The earthquake affected a huge range, and even the capital suffered losses. A rough count shows that there were tens of thousands of people who died, and countless homeless people were left after the disaster.

Yuanxing and Bai Jingcheng were both silent. After handing over the management to the officials who led the team, they did not relax, but continued to participate in the rescue work.

But they all knew that so many days had passed since the earthquake. Even if the people buried below were still alive at the beginning, their hope was slim.

Yuan Xing actually doesn’t like Bai Jingcheng very much because of his conspiracy when he first met.

Perhaps he has not been able to practice and loves to "judgment people by appearance", but of course it is more likely that he has suffered a loss, which makes him dislike these people who are very sensible from the bottom of his heart.

But after working together for a long time during this period, he found that Bai Jingcheng was not a bad person, so the two became friends.

During his spare time, he also asked the other party about "opening the sky gate" many times, but because of the other party's emperor's fate, he did not get any answers.

Yuanxing doesn’t like to force others. Since it doesn’t work here, he plans to go to the capital to find out the news in a few days.
To be continued...
