Chapter 1異球

"Thank you, my friend." The savage Chieftain Bulu extended his massive palm, accepting the White Ghoul fur cloak that Cang Lan offered.

Compared to the savages, Cang Lan's craftsmanship was clearly more exquisite.

At this time, the Other Globe had already entered winter. The savages were also draped in thick Ape Ghoul fur coats, but the workmanship of those Ape Ghoul coats was simply worlds apart from Cang Lan's skills.

Baihua Forest was a haven, secluded from the world, and the White Ghoul tribe had never intruded upon it.

Rarity made it precious. Therefore, White Ghoul fur, which had the same texture as Ape Ghoul fur but was pure white, was simply a symbol of status.

Cang Lan handed over a total of seven pure white White Ghoul fur coats. She looked up at the massive savage Chieftain Bulu, nodding her head in a friendly manner, "Jiang Xiao specifically instructed me to make seven cloaks."

"Hehe, Mr. Jiang Xiao understands me too well, and is too familiar with the Baihua Forest tribe. We still have several leaders here who have made great contributions to the survival and development of Baihua Forest." Bulu grinned, his aged face full of wrinkles, and looked with a smile at the savage female archer leader, Xia Wucha.

Ever since Jiang Xiao and Zhang Songfu entered the cave, and Zhang Songfu opened the door to the Hailing Shelter, Xia Wucha had been in a state of shock. And when Cang Lan came out with the White Ghoul fur coats that she had rushed to make over the past half month, Xia Wucha's eyes never left the pure white cloaks!

Too beautiful! Simply too beautiful! A pure white color, like snow...

Just imagine, in the female archer phalanx clad in Ape Ghoul coats, she alone would wear a white robe. How beautiful would that scene be?

Chieftain Bulu looked at Xia Wucha with a smile, giving her a slight nod, and said, "Take one. You deserve it."

Xia Wucha nodded repeatedly. To the shock of Zhang Songfu and others, Xia Wucha actually turned to look at Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao's expression had not been good all along, and he merely nodded slightly, an action almost imperceptible, but Xia Wucha clearly received Jiang Xiao's signal before stepping forward, bending down, and taking a coat from Cang Lan's hand.

This scene made Zhang Songfu click his tongue inwardly.

As Chieftain Bulu's subordinate, and as the leader of the female archer regiment, it was unquestionable that Xia Wucha would listen to the chieftain's orders. But she was actually seeking Jiang Xiao's opinion?

This Jiang Xiao...

In reality, Jiang Xiao didn't play any tricks, nor did he have any schemes. It was just that in the past half year, he had been diligent, unreserved, teaching the four regiments day and night, imparting everything he knew, and therefore received great respect.

In addition, Jiang Xiao's sincerity and personal charisma, especially his nearly unmatched martial arts, allowed Jiang Xiao to enjoy extremely high prestige in this savage tribe where "the winner is king."

And because Jiang Xiao was the true "instructor" of the savage legions, it also led to the emergence of an invisible "superior-subordinate" concept.

This was also the reason why Xia Wucha advised Jiang Xiao to wear a mask when they first met because in the minds of these soldiers, Jiang Xiao was a man mythologized by his own "martial arts," and should have a leopard's head and ringed eyes, a swallow's jaw and tiger's whiskers, a voice like thunder, and the momentum of a galloping horse, and should not look so "ugly"...

On the side, two savage guards took away the remaining coats from Cang Lan's hand, and Cang Lan also returned to her seat.

Zhang Songfu looked at Jiang Xiao, who was silent and looked preoccupied. He stepped forward, clasped his fist in his other hand, and said, "Instructor Jiang not only brought us here, but also brought very important things.

"I heard that the Baihua Forest tribe is thriving, with as many as a thousand people, and is still expanding rapidly. Therefore, Instructor Jiang brought some crop seeds from his hometown.

"We plan to introduce these food varieties here, on the one hand to improve everyone's diet, and on the other hand, a sufficient supply of food can support more people, so that the development of the savage tribe has no worries."

Hearing this, Chieftain Bulu's eyes lit up, and his expression was completely different from when he received the White Ghoul fur coat!

Food!?

This was the most important thing for the development of the tribe!

"Good! Good! Good!" Chieftain Bulu nodded repeatedly, looked at Jiang Xiao, and his wrinkled old face was full of gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang Xiao."

Jiang Xiao waved his hand and said, "Please trouble the old chieftain to arrange a place for them to live first. We can talk about the specific details after they settle down. It just so happens that it's winter now, and we have plenty of time to prepare for things like planting."

Bulu clearly saw that Jiang Xiao's mind was not here. He thought for a while and instructed the savage guard beside him.

"Everyone, you can live in the wooden house behind Ms. Zhu Yue's house." As he said that, Chieftain Bulu nodded to Jiang Xiao, "Sorry, Mr. Jiang Xiao, we couldn't find Xiao Chongyang."

Jiang Xiao waved his hand and turned to leave, and the group of people hurriedly followed.

Jiang Xiao was still very familiar with where his home was. Sticking to the chieftain's cave and walking north, with Xia Wucha's escort, the group quickly arrived at Xiao Chongyang's home.

Jiang Xiao gestured to the independent courtyard on the north side of the road behind him and said, "Go move in first."

The crowd looked at each other, but stepped forward anyway.

Cang Lan was more careful and said softly to Zhang Songfu, "Master Fo, go keep Jiang Xiao company."

Zhang Songfu nodded and turned back.

But he found that Jiang Xiao was standing in the courtyard, looking at the empty courtyard, silently lost in thought.

There were no more flowers in the flower garden.

Maybe it didn't have much to do with whether people left or not, after all, it was already winter.

At the door, Xia Wucha was standing guard with two savage female archers. Seeing Zhang Songfu coming over, Xia Wucha reached out and made a "stop" gesture, shaking her head, "Please leave."

Zhang Songfu opened his mouth, looked at Jiang Xiao's back, and after a long while, still didn't say anything.

"Let him in." Jiang Xiao suddenly spoke, and at the same time, stepped towards the familiar wooden house.

Zhang Songfu stepped in. Unlike the huge wooden house that Chieftain Bulu had prepared for them, Xiao Chongyang's house was built according to human specifications.

Zhang Songfu looked around, following Jiang Xiao into the small living room at the innermost part. In the bedroom next to the south-facing window, Zhang Songfu saw Jiang Xiao standing there dumbly again.

Zhang Songfu stepped forward, and his gaze passed over Jiang Xiao's shoulder, and he saw a pile of small stone slabs placed on the table.

Each stone slab was carved with a circled mask.

"Heh..." Jiang Xiao kept taking deep breaths, walking forward step by step, and reaching out to pick up a small stone slab.

These stone slabs were exactly the same as the small stone slab portraits that Jiang Xiao had once given to Xiao Chongyang, whether in size or thickness.

Jiang Xiao seemed to see a lonely and thin figure,

Alone at this table every quiet night,

Looking at the fluttering snow outside the window, silently carving stone slabs.

I only left for two and a half months,

I really came as fast as I could,

Why couldn't you wait a few more days for me?

I thought you were just reckless. Now it seems that you are not only reckless, but also very stupid.

Going out to find me, where... where are you going to find me? How could you possibly find me...

Couldn't you really wait? Couldn't you wait even a minute, even a second longer?

"Ah!" Jiang Xiao roared, but it wasn't from the decoy Jiang Xiao in the Other Globe. That decoy Jiang Xiao just couldn't control his strength and crushed a piece of stone slab, but this roar, representing extreme helplessness, came from the lower dimension, the main body Jiang Xiao in the snowy plains.

Three streaks of pitch-black light of Reversal shot out from Jiang Xiao's body, connecting to the White Ghoul Wizards in the Sacred Ruins, helping them advance in rank.

And in this chaotic and noisy battlefield, even the howls of those White Ghouls couldn't cover up Jiang Xiao's voice.

There was annoyance, indignation, and more disappointment and helplessness.

"What's wrong?" A cold voice rang in his ear.

Jiang Xiao raised his head, but saw Han Jiangxue, her face covered in blood, her clothes stained, leaving the battlefield, squeezing past the wall of Blazing Puppets, walking towards him step by step.

Jiang Xiao shook his head, gesturing towards the three advanced White Ghoul Wizards.

Han Jiangxue frowned slightly, turned around, and with a gentle flick of her blood-stained fingers, the White Ghoul Wizards threw themselves into the arms of the Blazing Puppets one after another.

Han Jiangxue turned around again and looked at Jiang Xiao. Her numb and cold eyes gradually softened, and her voice carried a trace of concern, "What happened?"

Looking at Jiang Xiao's appearance, Han Jiangxue took the star beads thrown by the Blazing Puppets and activated the Black Sky Teleportation Cover.

Whoosh...

The next moment, the two appeared under a dim starry sky, standing on the edge of a quiet cliff.

Han Jiangxue stretched out her hand, and her cold palm gently caressed Jiang Xiao's cheek, staining his face with streaks of blood, "It's rare to see you in this state. Did something happen in the Other Globe? Is it about Yuanyuan?"

Jiang Xiao took a step back, raised his arm, and touched the bloodstains on his face, "It's not Yuanyuan, it's a little savage, a little fool."

"He Chongyang? What happened to her?" Han Jiangxue knew everything about Jiang Xiao's experience on the Other Globe, and Jiang Xiao's stories had always been shared with her.

"She didn't wait for me in Baihua Forest, she went out to find me." Jiang Xiao lowered his head, holding his forehead with one hand, his voice full of helplessness.

Han Jiangxue's heart tightened. The Other Globe was not like Earth. That little savage's actions...

"Sigh..." Jiang Xiao sighed, sat down on the ground, and said with a wry smile, "I've bragged about a lot of things, and basically all of them have come true.

"I've made promises to some people, and I've tried my best to do everything well. So far, I haven't let anyone down, I haven't broken my word once, I haven't been late once.

"This time, I also arrived in time, but maybe I miscalculated her longing and dependence on me."

Han Jiangxue pursed her lips, but didn't know what to say.

Jiang Xiao's expression was full of bitterness, "This child has really taught me a lesson."

Han Jiangxue crouched down, gently stroking Jiang Xiao's back, her emotions unusually calm, "Since the problem has already appeared, then go solve it. She went to find you. Where do you think she would go to find you?"

Ding~

A bell was pressed against Jiang Xiao's chest. A few seconds later, Jiang Xiao said, "I told her that I was going to the snowy plains of the upper dimension to pick up my comrades."

Han Jiangxue, "So, she might go to the snowy plains to find you, looking for a space-time tunnel to the upper dimension, right?"

Jiang Xiao lowered his head and said softly, "In the Other Globe, it's winter now. Anywhere on the Beijiang Continent can be considered a snowy plain."

Han Jiangxue's hand stroking Jiang Xiao's back moved slightly upward, pressing against the back of his head, pressing him into her arms.

She lowered her head, and her cold lips gently imprinted on Jiang Xiao's head, "You've given hope to countless people, why don't you give yourself some?"

In the Other Globe, in He Chongyang's bedroom.

In a moment of silence, Jiang Xiao suddenly spoke, "Brother."

"Ah, I'm here." Zhang Songfu hurriedly responded at the door.

Jiang Xiao said, "Start a new life here, just do as we planned before."

Zhang Songfu's expression turned anxious, "Jiang Xiao, you want to..."

"This is already the best place to live that I can imagine. I've already laid the foundation for everything. Enjoy your new life." Jiang Xiao turned around, his smile a little forced, gently patted Zhang Songfu's shoulder, brushed past him, and walked quickly out of the house.

Zhang Songfu, "Jiang Xiao!?"

Jiang Xiao didn't turn back, just waved his hand, "I'm going out for a walk, no fixed return date."

Flap flap flap...

As he reached the door, he transformed into a crow, flapping its wings and flying high.

"Be sure to be safe!" Zhang Songfu chased after him, loudly urging.

At the door of the courtyard, Xia Wucha and two savage female archers silently raised their heads, watching the crow gradually fly away.
