Chapter 113 The Star Lady is Cowardly and Teasy (6)
Wen Shiyun appeared directly in the air in a wasteland area and landed in a barrel covered with rust stains.
With a thud, she was also stunned.
"Ah--" I was threatened with being marked by a bad dog the previous second, and the next second I fell into this damn place. I don't know whether it is good or bad.
Wen Shiyun was drowsy, her eyelids were too heavy to open, and she was so exhausted that she fell asleep leaning against the dirty iron barrel.
When she woke up again, she found that there was a circle of people around her, looking at her as if she were a stranger.
Each of them was wearing an old leather suit, which was worn and stained with oil and black stains.
His skin looked a little sallow, as if covered with oil.
Sallow skin, rough and wrinkled.
Among these people, her fair and translucent appearance, even though she looked a little disheveled, still stood out with its beauty.
"Who... who are you? Why are you surrounding me?"
Her voice was trembling, but she was forcing herself to be proud and calm.
The roughly dressed men pointed at her and spoke a language she could not understand.
She climbed out of the iron barrel. Her white guide uniform was stained black and her hair was messy and stuck to her cheeks. She looked embarrassed and pitiful, like a helpless kitten.
The men in the crowd had eager eyes, as if they wanted to go up and pull her.
Wen Shiyun frowned and couldn't help but took a few steps back.
"Do not touch me!"
At the moment when several people wanted to reach out and touch her, their space seemed to be completely solidified, and all their movements stopped in the air.
A suspended mechanical locomotive came to her like a blue meteor.
The man with his black leather jacket open had his long legs supporting the ground. He was wearing a tight-fitting dark brown combat uniform underneath. He was bent over, and the clothes fit tightly around his waist and abdomen, faintly revealing the beautiful lines of his lower abdominal muscles.
His long, bony knuckles tapped the button on the helmet on his forehead, revealing a pair of cold brown eyes.
These eyes... look so familiar.
"What are you standing there for? Get in the car."
He handed her a white helmet in a gentlemanly manner, his voice cold but polite.
Wen Shiyun didn't have time to think about it anymore, and now she could only choose to follow this man.
She took the helmet from the man's hand, put it on, and naturally straddled the car, sitting in front of the man.
The man was slightly stunned, then raised his eyebrows. His voice was low and mellow, and his warm breath was like the humming of a guitar string.
"Your place is behind me, Miss."
Wen Shiyun: “…”
No, this tone, this address, this voice...
She immediately reacted, turned around and whispered, "What... Void Realm."
"Yes, Miss, I'm honored that you still remember me." Shi Xuyu lowered his eyebrows and looked at her.
The woman's curled eyelashes and nose tip seemed to be coated with a layer of light in the dim light.
The stray kitten is still delicate, like a wild rose.
She's becoming more and more...beautiful.
Shi Xuyu's eyes were dark. He glanced at the people who paused over there, and moved his knuckles slightly. In an instant, the solidified space began to flow again, and those people started to move again. However, those who wanted to touch her were hit by some force and fell heavily with bruises on their faces.
Shi Xuyu didn't even give the person over there a second of a glance. He focused on the embarrassed and delicate little cat in front of him, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
"Since you like to sit like this, then do it, Miss. Sit down."
The man's mechanical car drove surprisingly steadily, and she didn't feel any bumps at all.

Unlike the ice and snow in Hei Xu, the temperature here is more suitable for ordinary people.
The golden light broke through the thick clouds and poured down on the two of them. It was slightly warm but not scorching, and it was an extremely comfortable temperature.
Only then did Wen Shiyun have time to observe this place.
The entire area here is filled with scrap steel, like a dumping ground for all discarded scrap.
It looked shabby, like a recycling plant, and the air was thick with the smell of rust and other bio-engineered things.
Copper rust and iron rust are exposed on the surface, and the operation of all machines seems slow and difficult.
Lubricated by the remaining gasoline from long ago, it now gradually began to make a squeaking sound of metal colliding, which made people frown.
The sound of springs, clockwork, and the collision of mechanical parts as people moved them seemed to play a piece of metal wind music.
-
"Where...is this place?"
It doesn't look dim, and even the warm-toned areas don't make people feel warm at all. The atmosphere is even more depressing than the ice and snow city in Hei Xu.
"Wasteland City, a lower-class galaxy. They survive by transporting mechanical parts in exchange for items from the upper galaxies."
While answering her question, the man stopped in front of a dilapidated iron house built with mechanical parts.
"Let's go, we're here."
He got out of the car neatly and swiftly. His body looked well-proportioned and strong under his wide uniform, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His long legs took precise and graceful steps, like a gentleman who had been measured, strong and elegant.
Wen Shiyun took off her helmet and followed him. The rust stains on her body made her look very messy.
She sniffed the smell on her body, pursed her lips, and said coquettishly,
"I want to wash up."
Perhaps it was because the man gave her the impression of being too gentlemanly and peaceful, and she had a very bad memory and forgot that he had mocked her for being weak that day, and subconsciously made a request to him.
Someone inside the iron house seemed to have heard their conversation. A woman in a light blue guide uniform cautiously poked her head out. Upon seeing Shi Xuyu, she pushed the door open and came out, her eyes full of excitement.
"You're back!"
She rushed out and wanted to hold the man's hand intimately, but he pushed her away with a distant and faint smile.
"Yes, Miss Linquan, this is your companion, Wen Shiyun."
Lin Quan paused awkwardly, glanced at her, frowned slightly, as if recognizing her.
"You are... the D-class guide?"
There was an unconcealable surprise and hostility in her tone.
"Didn't we agree that one Guide would be paired with one Sentinel? Why is this happening? Is there a mistake?!"
She is an A-level guide after all. What's the matter with assigning another guide here? Are they looking down on her?
The matter was too complicated, and Wen Shiyun was too lazy to explain.
She half closed her eyes and tugged at the hem of Shixuyu's coat in a coquettish manner.
"I'm tired."
Lin Quan bit her lower lip and looked at her angrily. She couldn't stand her hands pulling at the man's clothes, so she gritted her teeth and said,
"Since you're tired, why don't I take you inside to rest? Don't bother Shixuyu."
She seemed to be holding her hand in a natural and intimate manner, but in fact she seemed to unintentionally pull down her hand that was pulling the man's clothes.
Wen Shiyun raised her eyes to see the man's expression. Shi Xuyu curled his lips at her, with a playful smile in his eyes, as if waiting to see how she would respond.
The look in his eyes clearly showed that he saw through everything.
He's so bad. He just wants to watch others snatch his things away.
None of these men are good. They are either white and black, or black and black.
Among these sentinels, the only one who looks righteous is Winter.
Before she could think about it or complain any more, she heard some crying and panicking from a crowd not far away.
Shi Xuyu's expression was slightly tense.
"You guys, stay inside, I'll go take a look."
Lin Quan dragged her into the dilapidated iron house very skillfully and locked the door neatly, which made her a little stunned.
Oh no, she was still snatching it just a second ago. This action is... too decisive.
