Volume 4 Chapter 26 Honeymoon
"Morning, Boss!"
When I woke up, it was bright outside and Awei greeted me with a smile.
I stretched my body and complained to A Wei, "So many people toasted me yesterday, but you didn't block them for me even though you were my boyfriend. You even teamed up with them to get me drunk. Although drinking a lot in the game won't hurt your health, I'm still dizzy now. You're awesome, brother!"
"Hey, you said it was in the game, so it's okay to get drunk! You can't have sex in the fantasy anyway, so it won't affect your wedding night! When you and Xiao Yi get married in real life, I will still be your date and make sure nothing goes wrong, so that you can have a sober first time in your life."
I could only smile bitterly when I heard that. Although everything in the fantasy world feels real and technically you can do anything, in order to comply with relevant national laws, it is not allowed to set up "that kind of thing".
So I had no excuse to avoid people's toasts. As a result, after dancing with Xiao Yi, everyone took turns to drink from me one cup after another. In the end, probably because my brain could not bear it anymore, I was kicked out of the game by the system.
Although I didn't actually consume alcohol, the stimulation to my brain from the radio waves converted from virtual signals still made me dizzy. After exiting the game, I immediately fell onto the bed and fell asleep.
I haven't had such a long sleep for a long time. When I woke up, I felt refreshed. Although my head was still a little dizzy, I was very energetic.
After breakfast, the phone rang. I turned on the video call and a beautiful woman smiled at me. Wasn’t it Xiao Yi?
"Ah Tian, are you awake?"
"Yes, my dear wife, you drank a lot yesterday, right? Are you feeling uncomfortable now?"
Having a warm conversation with Xiao Yi, my heart was filled with happiness. Although fantasy is no different from reality, games are games after all. And now, when the word "wife" came out, a sense of reality surged in my heart, and I truly felt that I, Feng Haotian, had a lover, her name was Yin Jingxian.
After about half an hour of long love phone calls, I hung up and started playing games.
Hey, I didn't expect that a group of brothers were waiting for me. I had something to say to them, so now I don't have to spend extra time to gather them together.
All the brothers congratulated me again. I was so happy that I couldn't stop smiling. So I said, "Everyone, in the past you always said that the leader of such a big gang like Jinglei League couldn't even pick up a girl, which made you all ashamed. Now I finally found a sister-in-law for you, and she is the most beautiful woman in the eyes of the players of Cangzhi Continent. I know you are very happy..."
"Yes, yes. For such a big happy event, we should have a banquet for three consecutive days. We know that you are frugal and you won't host many guests, but we are all brothers. You should treat us a few meals, right?"
I...I was wondering why they came in so many people!
I rolled my eyes and said, "It's no problem to treat you, but you should also understand that I'm newlywed, and you should at least accompany your wife, right?"
"Don't worry, Boss. We understand you. We will definitely not get you drunk this time. We will ensure that you have plenty of time to accompany your sister-in-law."
"Oh, I understand, but today I can't do that. Xiao Yi and I have an appointment to go on our honeymoon!"
"ah!"
"There's nothing strange about this. Xiao Yi and I are going to the Western Continent. I'm almost level 60, and Xiao Inu will soon be able to level up if she works hard. I'm a knight, and she's a magician. We both need to go to the Western Continent to reach the fourth level, so we can do this while we're at it."
Haha, I finally came up with this excuse. I had agreed with Xiao Yi on a honeymoon trip this morning, but how should I explain this to everyone? After all, I am the leader of the Thunder Alliance. Although everyone has their own duties on weekdays, there are usually few things that need my personal attention. But if I just leave them behind to be intimate with Xiao Yi, they will definitely blame me for forgetting my friends for the sake of beauty and forgetting my brothers after getting married.
But I asked to get promoted, and this was a legitimate reason. That was the rule of Fantasy. If I stayed in the Blue Continent, even if I reached level 100, I would always be only a Glorious Knight. To be promoted to a Golden Knight, I had to go to the Western Fantasy Continent. If I didn't get promoted, I wouldn't be able to learn the skills after level 60. So sooner or later I would have to go there. This time, it would be a good opportunity to bring Xiao Yi with me, and travel with the beauty. Isn't this a romantic honeymoon trip?
So, I arranged all the affairs of the alliance, and especially told Lemmings, Bad Bad and A Wei that they must do a good job in intelligence work. The current Fantasy is just beginning to take shape, and all the gangs that should be established have been established. Players with strength and ambition have almost done the basic work. Although it is still calm on the surface, and there are several gang conflicts every day, they are all minor and rarely develop into real declarations of war, but sensitive people can already sense the undercurrents. A small spark at any time may ignite the smoke of war for dominance over the continent. There won't be many peaceful days!
Then I will go out leisurely to meet my beauty!
Actually, the place where Xiao Yi and I agreed to meet was at the Jinglei League. We chose the intersection of Kunlun Mountain Range and Tianshan Mountain Range in the extreme west of Cangzhi Continent as our base because we saw that this place is the key point for land communication between the East and the West. From the map, the fantasy terrain is constructed like a real world map. The location of Jinglei League is almost the eastern starting point of the ancient Silk Road. With the development of the game, the exchanges between the East and the West will gradually increase, and there are unlimited business opportunities. We seize this strategic point in order to make a lot of money in the future!
Now Xiao Yi and I have traveled to the Fantasy Continent. In addition to promotion and travel, we also have another purpose, which is to personally walk this important trade route, increase our understanding of the terrain and environment through field investigation, and prepare for future trade with the Western Continent. I didn't say this, but everyone actually understood it in their hearts, otherwise they wouldn't let me go so easily!
Therefore, if you want to travel from the east to the west, the Thunder Alliance is a must-pass place, and it is also the last supply point before leaving the Cang Continent. Naturally, I have to make sufficient preparations. The horse's backpack, the bag on my body, and the space in the treasure pot are all filled with various medicines, necessary tools for long-distance travel, spare replacement equipment, and dry food. The equipment on my body is also repaired. Then I came to the Feixian Bridge by the Xianling River. Xiao Yi was waiting for me at the other end of the bridge. Not meeting at the headquarters can save the brothers the trouble of seeing us off.
So I quietly met up with Xiao Yi, quietly left the Jinglei League, and headed west!
Xiao Yi and I rode on the unicorn's back together. Haha, now I have realized my secret wish of having her sit in front of me and holding her in my arms!
I chatted with Xiao Yi all the way, and she also handed over all the gang affairs to Uncle Zhang. Although Uncle Zhang's main job is a bodyguard, he has been with her father for so long and has seen how a super-large enterprise group is managed. He is definitely more than qualified to manage a gang in the game. Therefore, Xiao Yi is now free of worries like me, and can devote herself wholeheartedly to our honeymoon and enjoy the romantic love.
Xiao Yi and I were like the first to get on the bus and then buy the ticket. Although we fell in love at first sight, we rarely communicated with each other. After we confirmed our relationship that day, I was busy looking for a betrothal gift for her, and then we got married. This may have something to do with our personalities. She was trained by her father as a successor, and she developed a style of making decisions quickly and vigorously; and I was used to being the boss in the game, making decisions and acting immediately. In other words, we are the kind of people who will never regret making a decision, and will implement it as soon as possible, and never nag. So since we met and fell in love in Fantasy, we will definitely get married in the game, and it’s better to get married sooner rather than later. Why do we have to wait until we have been in love for a while and are familiar with each other like an old married couple before holding the wedding?
But then again, for a couple to communicate with each other, deepen their understanding of each other, and let their feelings slowly accumulate and ferment into mellow wine, that is also an indispensable process in perfect love. This trip just gave us such an opportunity.
Happy times always pass quickly, and soon we entered the Kunlun Mountains.
In the plains at the foot of the mountain, most monsters are lower level than me, so they naturally don’t dare to provoke us. But once we enter the mountainous area, that is the territory of monsters above level 60. Once they see Xiao Yi and me, they will definitely attack us!
Xiao Yi and I were talking sweetly when we were interrupted by the monsters. Both of us felt it was a big spoiler. Xiao Yi curled her lips and threw out a ball of explosive fire. I didn't hesitate either. Although the journey was still long and I couldn't bear to use Tiger Soul for the time being (otherwise it would run out of durability and I wouldn't be able to find a place to repair it before reaching the city in the Western Continent), I had plenty of dark gold-level weapons, which, combined with my own super high attack power, were enough to deal with these little monsters. I took out a spear, rode my horse and rushed forward, stabbing out a series of gun flowers, and killed a group of miscellaneous soldiers in two or three strokes.
Since I often stay in Kunlun Mountain to level up and hunt for treasures, I am very familiar with the map of this area. I chose a route with few monsters and beautiful scenery. So the two of us were very relaxed. We talked and laughed all the way, and occasionally fought off a few stupid creatures. A day passed quickly, and we set up camp in the mountains to rest.
Starting from the second day, we entered the deepest part of the Kunlun Mountains. The altitude here is very high, and many peaks are over 5,000 meters high. There is snow on the top of the mountain that never melts all year round. Under the bright sunlight on this plateau, it reflects dazzling white light. The blue sky, dangerous peaks and white snow constitute a picturesque beauty, which Xiao Yi and I admired and lingered on.
But this is also the most dangerous section of the road. Even I seldom go deep into this place. Not to mention that the monsters here are often above level 80. If you are unlucky, you may encounter a B-level or above boss. The mountains here are steep and you have to cross glaciers and snow peaks at any time. Although the scenery along the way is beautiful, if you are not careful, you will fall into an ice crevice or trigger an avalanche. It will be a big trouble and you will die. As the saying goes, "The snow-capped peaks are still dark, and the ice horse is often startled."
Fortunately, I had some experience, so I slowed down Coco's pace, reminded Xiao Yi to speak softly, carefully observe the ground ahead, and choose a safe path. Fortunately, I was lucky enough that no accidents happened, and I crossed the ridge of the Kunlun Mountains safely.
After that, it is the downhill road to the west foot of the mountain range. Compared with the east side, this side is far more desolate, with sparse vegetation, many mountains exposed, and brown rocks weathered to form a unique landform with various shapes and peaks. This is because the Kunlun Mountains themselves block the warm and humid air from the Pacific Ocean in the east, and the sea breeze from the Indian Ocean in the south is blocked by the Himalayas, resulting in little rain and dry climate all year round.
When we came down the mountain, it was already dark. After crossing the Kunlun Mountains, we had reached the border of the Cang Continent. Thousands of miles to the west, it was all Gobi Desert with no human habitation, until we entered the Western Continent and the city of Alexandria, and only then could we return to the "civilized world".
After another night's rest, we continued our journey westward the next morning. The surrounding environment turned into endless yellow sand, with no green at all. The sun was scorching overhead, making people sweat all over and thirsty and unable to walk. Sometimes we would suddenly encounter sandstorms, with strong winds, dark clouds in the sky, flying sand and rocks, and egg-sized hailstones falling down. The temperature could drop from over 40 degrees to below freezing in an instant!
Thanks to Xiao Yi wearing the Moon Shadow Divine Robe, we discovered that this magical garment has a special use in this special environment. When you wear it, you will feel a circle of spiritual light protecting your body, which is cool and refreshing, and is invulnerable to cold and heat. It is like a portable air conditioner! Xiao Yi snuggled in my arms, and I also benefited a lot. Although I can't be as immune to the harsh environment as her, under the scorching sun, it is like holding a piece of ice in my arms, which is very cool!
Even so, although the desert scenery is spectacular and allows us to appreciate the beautiful scenery of "lonely smoke rising in the desert, round setting sun over the long river", the unchanging monotonous environment and boring journey are really a test of one's willpower. Fortunately, I was traveling with Xiao Yi, and we talked and laughed, whispering in each other's ears, and our love was deep, so I didn't care about this little hardship.
But if it was just the bad environment, it would be fine. This desert looks simple, but it is actually full of dangers. There are groups of desert stone monsters, stone giants and other monsters wandering in it. Once we meet, we will inevitably have a fierce battle. Although the two of us are strong, there are times when we are outnumbered. We often need to rely on the unicorn's legs to escape, but this way we can't move forward in a straight line, and the journey is much longer. What's more dangerous is that there is a kind of sandworm lurking under the gravel in the desert, waiting for people and animals to pass by and then suddenly attack. If you react a little slowly, you will be buried in its belly. In addition, there are terrible quicksand traps, which are unpredictable. There are so many things that are hard to describe. No wonder so far, except for the special transmission arranged by the official competition, no one from the Western Continent has come to the Cang Continent! It seems that it will not be easy for us to organize caravans and develop roads in the future.
Xiao Yi and I have been walking in the sea of sand for two days and have not yet seen the end of the desert. However, we have passed by the famous Dunhuang Grottoes. We went to visit and have fun with great interest. When we saw the images of flying fairies, we seemed to hear the distant camel bells. I thought back to thousands of years ago, it was through this Silk Road that communication between the East and the West was established, and Chinese silk, porcelain and other products were brought to ancient Rome and to the whole world. At the same time, foreign species such as grapes and pepper were introduced to China, and music, dance, food, and clothing from the Western Regions were also brought here, making Chinese culture more colorful. I couldn't help but be fascinated by it.
Today, we are following the footsteps of our predecessors, walking on this ancient road that witnessed the rise and fall of history. Where are the beautiful ancient countries of Loulan, Qiuci, Shanshan, Yuezhi... now? This once prosperous Silk Road, which was full of business and travel, has almost been buried in the dust of history. However, I am confident that my Jinglei League and I will rebuild the trade route in the dream and make the Silk Road show its charm again.
That evening, it was sunset, and the sunset dyed the sky red. Xiao Yi suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Look! An oasis!"
Xiao Yi is a half-elf and has much better eyesight than me. I walked forward for a distance and used my gaze skill to see a vast expanse of green before my eyes. Under a sand dune hundreds of meters high, there was a crescent-shaped spring, like pearls and jade, inlaid in this vast desert. Along the lakeside, there was green grass and countless unknown wild flowers blooming on the grass. They looked particularly bright and beautiful in our eyes, which were used to the endless yellow sand.
Xiao Yi cheered loudly, and I also became excited. I spurred my horse forward and soon stepped onto the grass of the oasis!
Arriving at the lake, the two men dismounted, each scooped up a handful of spring water and poured it on their faces, shouting with delight. Coco also lowered her head and drank a few gulps of the sweet and fragrant spring water, then stood up and let out a long neigh of joy.
Such a rare Feng Shui treasure land is of course the best place for us to camp tonight, so the two of us got busy, set up the tent and lit a bonfire. The only regret is that we have no cooking skills, so we can only eat the prepared dry food and bacon for dinner. Alas, I envy Wenxin a little! If he were here, I would kill two small animals, roast them and eat them, and feast on them. Wouldn't it be great! But it's just a thought. I don't want anyone to interfere with the world of two people between Xiaoyi and me.
The night gradually enveloped the earth, stars hung on the black velvet sky, and a crescent moon rose from the east, casting a cool light. Such a beautiful scenery was full of poetry and painting. In addition, Xiao Yi and I whispered and talked about love, it was warm and romantic, and intoxicating. Hehe, if I hadn't traveled here from afar, how could I experience this feeling?
Suddenly, Xiao Yi came close to my face, bit my ear and whispered, "Ah Tian, um... I want to take a bath in the lake."
ah!
In the fantasy world, swimming is allowed, and there are even special swimsuits for sale in stores. Of course, you can jump into the water with your clothes on, but it will be uncomfortable if your clothes get wet and stick to your body, unless you wear special water equipment such as water-repellent beads.
Xiao Yi's Tianshui Pavilion is close to the East China Sea, and many of its specialties come from the sea. She naturally has props such as water-repellent beads, but this trip we are completely walking on land, and the journey is very long. The limited backpack is not enough to carry the necessary items. Of course, we will not carry the water-repellent beads that we expect to be useless, let alone a swimsuit.
And Xiao Yi was talking about taking a bath, not swimming... Doesn't that mean... Thinking of this, I felt two streams of heat flowing out of my nostrils. I wiped them with the back of my hand. Damn, can I get a nosebleed from being too excited in the game? This is really embarrassing!
Seeing this, Xiao Yi was both ashamed and angry. Her cheeks were as red as ripe persimmons. She said angrily, "What are you thinking about, you pervert? I am warning you. Don't look around. Sit here honestly, facing the desert, and think about your mistakes!"
Oh, I thought I would have a chance to feast my eyes, um, forget it, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, when we date in real life...hahaha...
I obediently turned around and faced Crescent Moon Lake. After a while, I heard a rustling sound behind me, followed by a "splash" of water, and then no sound.
After a while, I heard the sound of water splashing and Xiao Yi's sweet singing, woooo... I will endure it, I will endure it again, I must behave like a gentleman in front of my (real) future wife!
"ah……"
Xiao Yi suddenly screamed, which scared me. Then I heard her shouting, "Ah Tian, come and save me, there is... there is a monster!"
I was anxious when I heard this. Xiao Yi must have taken off all his clothes and equipment. His defense was pitifully low. The monsters in the desert were probably not good. Xiao Yi would be easily killed if attacked. Wouldn't our journey be abandoned halfway and we have to return to the Blue Continent to start all over again? It was also because we didn't find any monsters after entering the oasis. We thought it was a safe area, so we were so careless.
I didn't care about the ban Xiao Yi had placed on me. I jumped up and activated the skill "Love Guardian" of the Oath Ring at the first opportunity!
A faint light flashed on the ring finger of my left hand. My own defense dropped by half, but 25% was transferred to Xiao Yi, which gave her some protection. If she activated Absolute Protection at the same time (the wedding ring cannot be taken off unless you apply for a divorce from the system, so even if Xiao Yi took off all other equipment, the wedding ring would definitely be on her body), then it would be basically impossible for her to be killed instantly by the monsters.
I didn't even have time to summon my mount, and rushed to the lakeside. I saw Xiao Yi climbing out of the water with a panicked look on her face. I quickly rushed over and hugged her in my arms, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Xiao Yi didn't say anything, but stretched out a hand to point behind him. I looked up and saw a few toads. They looked so ugly. No wonder Xiao Yi was so scared!
I let Xiao Yi go, protected her behind me, and swung Tiger Soul to kill her!
I didn't look down on these toads. Although they are definitely not the same species as the big toads I killed when I was a novice, and their level is much higher, I am no longer the same as I used to be!
Unexpectedly, my sword hit nothing. Although these toads were fat, they were very agile and could jump several meters away. I was not very agile and couldn't catch up with them even after I left my mount!
Suddenly, a string of fireballs flew in from behind, covering a large section of the lakeshore like a rainstorm, and several toads were hit. Unfortunately, Xiao Yi was not wearing any equipment at the moment, and his magic attack power was too low to cause any damage.
I suddenly had an idea and said, "Xiao Yi, use light magic, illumination magic!"
This lighting technique does not have any lethal power. It is just an auxiliary skill that can be used in a dark environment without a torch. Tonight the sky is clear and the nearby scenery can still be seen clearly under the starlight and moonlight. Originally, this spell could not be used, but Xiao Yi absolutely trusted me, so a ball of strong light immediately exploded behind me!
Haha, under the light, the toads stopped jumping immediately. I walked forward, and my knife drew blood. I cleaned them up in a few strokes.
Then I turned around.
"Ah..." Xiao Yi cried softly, clasped her hands over her chest and turned her head to the side.
The situation was urgent just now, and I just noticed that Xiao Yi was almost naked, wearing only tight underwear. Her beautiful body was exposed in front of me, her skin was as smooth as jade, her figure was curvy, her shoulders were as sharp as a knife, her waist was as thin as a rope, and her wet hair stuck to her face. The sight was so tempting.
Every part of her is beautiful, she is simply God's most perfect masterpiece!
Xiao Yi said shyly: "Haven't you seen enough? Turn around!"
Hehe, now that I have seen it, I became bolder and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? We are husband and wife. What's the harm in letting me take a look? There is no one else here."
Xiao Yi stamped her feet and said, "You...you just like to bully me! Humph, all men are perverts!"
Of course I would not push it any further and embarrass Xiao Yi. She turned her back obediently, but still retorted: "If I'm not lustful, I'm afraid I'm not a man. The important thing is to be romantic but not vulgar. I, your husband, am one of the few good men in the world. I'm not willing to have sex with any other woman except you!"
"Humph, you're so beautiful, aren't you? You got the upper hand this time, I won't give you another chance next time!"
"Hey, honey, please don't do that. If you don't give me this opportunity anymore, how can we have a baby in the future?"
"Obscene! Go to hell!"
Xiao Yi had already put on her clothes and pushed me into the lake from behind...
"Honey, help me! I can't swim... Gulu... Gulu... I won't dare to swim again..."
