The dark night was completely reflected in blood red by the surging fire.

In such a background, a phoenix that consists of high purity energy that almost covers half of the sky with a sharp roar, swooping down in a terrifying manner that destroys the world. Before the ground, the world began to burst and burn. This is a doomsday scene.

He could not move, nor could he speak. At that moment, he could only watch the girl with silver hair flying, and resolutely opened her arms and blocked him.

That was an eternal moment.

With sadness, the rippling tears slowly floated into his eyes. On the girl's beautiful face, the happy but extremely sad smile from the bottom of her heart became a bloody mark that would never be erased in his life's memory—

The sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the fire of hell ruthlessly submerged the entire world.

“…”

Under the cold mask that no one could see, his eyes were opened with great difficulty, as if such a small awakening action required all his strength and courage.

"Woo!"

Without warning, a pair of bloody eyes on the mask of pain suddenly burst out with a crazy bloodthirsty red light. In the dim environment, he grabbed his heart tightly and began to tremble desperately without control.

The unreachable and irresistible severe pain made his mind start to be distracted and crazy. He panted desperately until his heart was slightly numb, but he still felt that the air inhaled into his lungs was so sparse.

at last--

In the unbearable severe pain, he suddenly grabbed a corner of the desk, grabbed a sharp blade like an addicted addict, and then couldn't wait to pierce the palm of his other hand.

puff!

The strong smell of blood suddenly filled the air, and the dripping blood penetrated his sleeves.

It was enough to make ordinary people scream and feel biting pain, but it was like a sedative, which finally allowed him to calm down slowly again.

And at this moment—

Tak, Tak...

Outside the stone room, a vague sound of gentle footsteps came.

Wang Yao, who had completely awakened, quickly calmed down his breath and subconsciously hid his bloody hands and sharp knife under the table, while looking towards the door.

The candles on the candlestick had burned out and the sky seemed to be bright outside. With the faint light pouring in, Wang Yao clearly saw the girl with a long ponytail reaching her ankle slightly bulging her cheeks, and walked in like an empty stomach.

“…?”

Although he had just gotten angry last night, what surprised Wang Yao was that as soon as the genius was dawn, Sun Shangxiang actually came to Wolonggang again.

It should be snowing outside Wolonggang, because Sun Shangxiang's hair was obviously slightly wet with the melted snow water. The soft hair was still stuck to the cheeks that were slightly red by the wind and snow, and it became a bit cute and delicate.

"..." That glance made Wang Yao feel a little distracted.

Of course, compared to last night, the eldest lady didn't even say anything this time, but just bulged her cheeks slightly. After coming in, she threw the food packaged in oil paper on Wang Yao's table like throwing garbage, then shook her ponytail and turned around and left.

The whole process was flowing and free and easy, and Wang Yao couldn't react for a long time.

What does she mean?

......

......

And once a day like this begins, it seems that there is no intention to stop. In the future, Sun Shangxiang will only come to Wolonggang by himself once he has time.

At first, Wang Yao was a little uncomfortable. Although he knew that Sun Shangxiang did not have any intention of being ill-behaved, he had repeatedly decided to refuse because he did not want to owe her this favor. Unfortunately, whenever he was about to say something, he always swallowed it back in the young lady's faint contempt.

It’s not that Wang Yao was afraid of Sun Shangxiang, but he was really worried that if he was not careful, the eldest lady would take his desk to vent her anger as soon as she got up. After all, there was Cao Cao in front and Sun Shangxiang behind. At present, this is the only desk he left!

What's more, as a descendant of the royal family in Jiangdong, Sun Shangxiang thought about the long-term stability of the future of the Federation and did not want to offend such a daughter. After a long time, he gradually got used to and agreed to Sun Shangxiang who came to him every day to deliver him all kinds of meals.

Of course, the daily meals were naturally not made by Sun Shangxiang. The young lady was not touched by the spring water, and she couldn't even take a shovel. But why did the young lady have money, so she thanked her for her. In just one week, even if Wang Yao didn't leave the house, he almost ate half of the delicious food in Jingzhou City.

Until the 8th day—

Under the strange emotions of being soft-hearted and short-handed, when the eldest lady was about to leave as usual that morning, Wang Yao finally took the initiative to break the silence of each other's tacit understanding for the first time.

"Hero, how can we communicate long distances?"

The misunderstanding of her that night and the behavior of Sun Shangxiang braved the heavy snow to deliver food to him every day made Wang Yao feel a little ashamed and grateful. He also vaguely felt that the eldest lady had always been very concerned about this matter, so he chose to take the initiative to show kindness.

The young lady who had already reached the door suddenly heard Wang Yao's question. After subconsciously pausing, she turned around and looked at Wang Yao.

"So there is something that our leader doesn't know?" The eldest lady replied in such a sloppy and unrestrained manner, and Yazi, who was obviously a little ungrateful.

"..." Wang Yao, who felt a hot face pressing on his cold butt, felt embarrassed. He suddenly felt a little regretful. In fact, he didn't have to ask Sun Shangxiang, and before the war started, he could ask Sima Yi to teach him.

Just the water splashed out by saying something, Wang Yao, who was already in a difficult position at this time, could only bite the bullet and say helplessly: "If...... I won't force me if you don't want to teach me."

Looking at Wang Yao's embarrassing appearance, Sun Shangxiang's mouth, who had been tense for 8 days, had secretly raised her mouth without any trace, and then said with a leisurely look: "Tsk, okay, you're sorry, then I'll teach you to be reluctant to do so~."

She said: "Actually, this is not difficult. When each of our heroes is created, they are given the corresponding 5-digit random code. We rely on this code to communicate long distances."

As he said that, Sun Shangxiang walked to Wang Yao again, lifted up the strands of hair beside his ears at him, and pointed to his small and white left ear: "Did you see it? If you want to contact someone, just touch the tragus position gently, and then silently recite the other party's code in your consciousness, and you can communicate from a long distance. Of course, the premise is that you must know the other party's code. For example, Sister Da Qiao's code is 04551, your deputy leader is 02746, and I am 03456. After all, I don't know what your code is yet."

Sun Shangxiang is cheerful and active by nature. She just let it go when she is angry, but as long as she passes through that stubbornness, it will be almost difficult to stop talking.

When facing her inquiry, Wang Yao shook his head blankly: "I don't know either."

Although Wang Yao inherited Zhuge Liang's skill module and level attributes, because it was too hasty, no one could explain many details in detail.

Sun Shangxiang was stunned for a moment. After all, it was the first time she had seen this situation, but she was still smart and soon thought of the corresponding solution: "It's okay. Since you inherited Zhuge Liang's skill module, I think the communication code in your body should be Zhuge Liang's. Let me try it. I remember that his code seems to be 13140..."

While speaking, Sun Shangxiang stretched out her index finger and pressed it lightly to her left ear. However, three seconds later: "Damn? No, it shouldn't..."

Looking at Sun Shangxiang's depressed expression, Wang Yao could probably guess the result and said immediately: "Then I'll do it."

After saying that, Wang Yao also followed Sun Shangxiang's appearance and pressed his index finger against the tragus on his left ear, and tried to connect to the communication with Sun Shangxiang.

"Hey, can you hear it?"

The whispering sound that seemed to be close to her ears, with a little hoarseness and a little magnetic, which made Sun Shangxiang's body, who was caught off guard, tremble slightly unnaturally. At that moment, she was at a loss for no reason, and her head was even blank.

"That's all?" On the other side, Wang Yao's voice had already sounded again.

"Yes...yes!" Sun Shangxiang, who came to her senses, turned around suddenly because she felt her cheeks suddenly become hot, so she could only pretend to be calm and shouted: "You...how hard do you think it's?"

Wang Yao, who finally understood the operation process, did not have the intention to notice Sun Shangxiang's strangeness. After all, they were considered "reconciliation". He didn't want to waste his time and energy anymore, so he said, "I understand, thank you."

In addition to thanking, Wang Yao actually had the element of seeing off guests. However, it was obvious that the young lady could not have such a high ability to comprehend.

"After that's it... why don't you take off that mask?" When Sun Shangxiang, who had quietly recovered, turned around again, she asked this question for no reason.

It is easy to invite God and it is difficult to send God. Wang Yao, who originally thought that things were over, could only reply: "It's good to wear it."

"What about when eating? Wear it?"

"......Won't."

"oh oh."

In Wang Yao's slightly puzzled eyes, as if he had obtained the desired answer. Sun Shangxiang nodded thoughtfully, and then sat on a seat next to Wang Yao with his legs crossed.

Wang Yao: "...will you not go back?"

"I'll leave later. You can have a meal, don't worry about me." Sun Shangxiang said, while supporting her elbows on her legs, pressing her palm against her chin, staring at Wang Yao with interest, without any intention of leaving.

"..." Wang Yao, who suddenly understood what Sun Shangxiang wanted to do, did not dare to force the expulsion order because he did not want to provoke the young lady.

but--

Feeling Sun Shangxiang's gaze as if it were, Wang Yao, who had no idea what was uncomfortable, stopped taking off his mask by chance: "By the way, how far is the communication distance between heroes?"

"You have a meal first, what do you want to ask?"

"I want to understand the actual distance exactly. After all, small details are often the key to winning or losing. I don't want to make such a low-level mistake when attacking Weidu."

Sun Shangxiang thought for a while and said, "It's about 300 miles. I tested it in the canyon when I was fine."

"300 miles?" As soon as Sun Shangxiang finished speaking, Wang Yao repeatedly confirmed in a very obvious questioning tone: "Isn't it wrong? You will occasionally be a little confused. Will there be any errors in it?"

"I'm confused?" The young lady was stunned for three seconds, and then she became angry. She couldn't stand other people's doubts since she was a child!

"If you don't believe me, I'll try to show you now!" As he spoke, the eldest lady forgot what she was about to do, stood up, bulged her cheeks slightly and walked straight outside the stone room.

Just like that, an hour passed...

"It's 100 miles, how about it? Can you hear it?" Sun Shangxiang's very serious voice came from his ears.

"Yeah." Wang Yao stretched out, and while making a perfunctory statement, he put on his mask again and began to clean up the desktop.

Another hour passed...

“200 miles, what about now?”

"......Um."

"How about 300 miles? Can you still hear it?"

"Well, it seems that your distance measurement is correct."

"Hmph, of course, don't underestimate me, I'm not confused at all!" Sun Shangxiang's very proud voice came from the other end of the voice.

As it turns out, she is indeed right. However, Wang Yao is indeed right, and this girl is a little confused...

"By the way, have you walked outside Wolonggang?" Wang Yao asked this while starting to sort out the documents.

"Yes." The latter has not yet reacted.
