    "How are you? Do you feel better?" Aoba squatted down and asked Uesugi Maki, who was sitting under the tree, breathing and calming down.  "Fortunately, I feel much better." Uesugi Maki nodded and said.  "Sister Maki, are you afraid of heights?" Aoba continued to look at Uesugi Maki and suddenly said.  "Have been discovered? Yes, when I stand in a high place, I will be so scared that I can't stand it." Maki Uesugi may have felt embarrassed to admit this in front of her younger brother, so she said with a red face.  "Then Maki-san, please take a rest first. I'll go and see what's written on that board first." Aoba said to Uesugi Maki, then stood up and walked towards the board.  "Brother Aoba, be careful." Uesugi Maki couldn't help but tell her.  "It's okay, don't worry!" Qingye waved behind him and came to the board.  "Wait, I'll be with you." However, Uesugi Maki didn't know whether she was worried about Aoba or afraid of being alone, so she stood up immediately and chose to follow Aoba.  Aoye looked back at Uesugi Maki, smiled and said nothing, just like that, the two of them came to the board and saw what was written on the board.  "Welcome to the place of trial. Move forward as a legend and have no regrets in life or death. Stay behind the ordinary and spend the rest of your life in peace." "This means that if you want to become a legend, then keep moving forward, but you have to risk your life. And if  If you choose to retreat, can you live the rest of your life in an ordinary way?" Aoye said, half murmuring to himself and half to Uesugi Maki.  "Then do we want to go back?" Uesugi Maki hesitated.  "Sister Maki, actually when you got the shikigami, you were already destined to be extraordinary." Aoba looked at Uesugi Maki and said with a smile.  "Yes, I can no longer be ordinary." Uesugi Maki was stunned, and then said half-self-deprecatingly.  "Maki-sister, do you regret it?" Aoye turned to look at the stone steps ahead and said to Uesugi Maki beside him.  "Regret? No. I won't regret it. Instead of living a safe but numb life like before, I choose to move forward." Uesugi Maki said, her eyes gradually becoming serious.  "Well, let's go! Let's go and see what it's like to become a legend." Qingye said and took the lead to step forward.  And Uesugi Maki, who had recovered from her fear of heights, also followed Aoba closely.  "Brother Aoba." Uesugi Maki suddenly called Aoba.  "What's wrong? Sister Maki?" Aoba asked confused.  "Cross this rope bridge next time. I will walk by myself." Uesugi Maki said with courage.  "Okay, come on." Qingye replied loudly.  Just like that, the two of them walked forward along the path of the world, going down the mountain and up the mountain again, as if there was no end.  Gradually, Uesugi Maki, whose own physical strength was very problematic, even with Aoba's help.  I am also very tired.  "Brother Aoba, haven't you arrived yet?" Uesugi Maki asked in a loud voice.  "If nothing else happens, we are trapped." Qingye looked around at the scenery that seemed to have been repeated many times and said.  Although the scenery in the forest is the same, Qingye can still distinguish which part of the environment and which tree he has seen before.  "Trapped? What's going on?" Maki Uesugi gasped and leaned against a tree, asking while taking the opportunity to rest.  "This is a formation specifically designed to trap people. I didn't expect to see such a formation in this era." Qingye shook his head and said.  "Then what should we do?" Uesugi Maki said nervously.  "Let's go, I've found the exit. We're almost out, but I'm afraid there's still a small test before we go out." Qingye said and looked in a certain direction.  "Test? Is it the test of the trial place?" Uesugi Maki suddenly became nervous.  "No. No, the test in the trial ground cannot be of this level. This should be regarded as an appetizer before the official test! Sister Maki, please sit down and have a rest! Then we will rush out in one go."  Aoba also leaned against the big tree next to Uesugi Maki, pretending to take a break and said.  "Okay, let's take a rest." Uesugi Maki didn't show any politeness, but sat down.  Then he gasped for air, obviously really exhausted.  "Here, drink some water." As he said this, Aoba took out a bottle of water from the Qiankun bag and handed it to Uesugi Maki.  "Thank you." Maki Uesugi thanked her and took the water and drank it.  &nbsp"Brother Aoba, please drink some too." Uesugi Maki, who had drank half the bottle of water, handed the water to Aoba, not caring at all that it was the water she had just finished.  "Thank you." Aoba also thanked him, took the water bottle and drank heavily, also not caring that this was what Uesugi Maki had just drank.  As for indirect kissing or something like that, Maki Uesugi is not a child anymore and will not be shaken by this matter at all, not to mention that she is so tired now that she feels like she is going to die. She has no time to think about anything, and  Aoba will not be swayed even more.  In this way, the two of them drank the water, rested for a while, then got up and continued to set off.  It was Aoba who was still walking in front, and Uesugi Maki was walking closely behind Aoba.  But this time, Aoba, who was responsible for leading the way, did not continue to walk forward along the stone steps as before, but started walking back with Uesugi Maki.  "Brother Aoba, why do we have to go back?" Uesugi Maki asked puzzled.  "It's very simple, because this is the right direction." Aoba shrugged.  "Is this the right direction? But is this the path we took when we came here?" Uesugi Maki still didn't understand.  "Our senses have been blinded, or deceived by the changing forest." Aoba continued to explain.  ¡°I don¡¯t understand.¡± Uesugi Maki said she was confused about this.  So the next moment, a fork in the road appeared in front of the two walking people, and two separate roads, one to the left and one to the right, appeared in front of them.  "What's going on? Isn't this the direction we came from just now? When we just passed by, there was no fork in the road at all?" Uesugi Maki's eyes widened in surprise.  "So, this is the right direction, come with me!" Aoba said, taking Uesugi Maki's hand, looking for one direction of the fork in the road, and walked forward.  The two of them continued walking like this.  A moment later, a fork in the road appeared in front of him again, and this time there were three forks in the road.  Without saying a word, Aoba took Uesugi Maki on a side road.  "Then the two of them encountered several forks in the road, but it was Aoba's choice that kept them going.  Until there was no fork in the road in front of the two of them, and at the same time, a plain and the shadows of various buildings on the plain could be seen dimly in the distance.  This time seems to be the last.  As the buildings in the distance got closer and closer, Maki Uesugi's face became more and more relaxed.  Who knows that at this moment, Aoba grabbed Uesugi Maki's footsteps.  "What's wrong? Brother Aoba?" Uesugi Maki asked confused.  "Be careful, our little test is coming." Aoba said calmly.  So the next moment, the forest around the two people seemed to suddenly darken, and the whole atmosphere became gloomy.  At the same time, bursts of weird screams continued to sound around the two of them.  The two people seemed to be surrounded by something.  "W-what's going on?" Uesugi Maki immediately nervously squeezed Aoba's arm.  "This is the little test I said. Sister Maki, it's time to release the golden fox." Aoba reminded Uesugi Maki, and at the same time took out the bamboo tube containing the fox.  And at the same time, those who made strange screams also showed their true colors, but they were more than a dozen wolves that looked extremely ferocious with bared teeth.  Surrounded the two people.  "Is this the little test you were talking about?" Uesugi Maki looked at the dozen or so wolves surrounding her and stared at Aoba with panic on her face.  "Of course, this is naturally a small test, so I'll leave the rest to you. I'll defend the front." Aoba said with a relaxed shrug.  Immediately afterwards, before Uesugi Maki could answer, the spirit fox in the bamboo tube was released.  So Uesugi Maki also quickly released the golden fox.  The appearance of the golden fox and the spirit fox.  It seemed that the dozen wolves were also startled.  "However, facing the seemingly slender bodies of the Golden Fox and the Spirit Fox, the dozen or so wolves immediately became nonchalant and even narrowed the circle of encirclement, hoping to use this kind of oppression to make the prey lose its will to resist.  To win more easily.  Although this action of the wolf pack had no effect on Aoba, it shocked Uesugi Maki.  But compared to the frightened Uesugi Maki, the Golden Fox, who is Uesugi Maki's shikigami, became excited.  Jin Hu, who has not fought for who knows how many years, has an extremely aggressive temperament. At least compared to the steady spirit fox, Jin Hu is much more impulsive.  So before Uesugi Maki could give any orders, Golden Fox had already taken action.   I saw the Golden Fox's originally golden body, and the whole body instantly shone with a golden halo, and then the Golden Fox rushed towards the wolves that Uesugi Maki was facing.  The golden fox first aimed at the largest one among them. When the wolf saw the golden fox rushing over and opened its mouth to come towards the golden fox fiercely, the golden fox was completely indifferent.  So the next moment the wolf asked the golden fox to bite it into its mouth.  But before Uesugi Maki screamed after watching this scene, the golden halo on the golden fox's body was like a layer of flame. Following the mouth of the wolf and the golden fox, it shot towards the whole body of the wolf.  Spread away.  Immediately, the wolf that had just bitten the golden fox let out a scream and fell backwards, but the golden halo was like a lingering flame, following the wolf's mouth and instantly igniting the entire wolf.  In just a moment, the screaming wolf lost its voice, and at the same time, the entire wolf body turned into pieces of pitch black and disappeared.  "Ah, what's going on?" Uesugi Maki witnessed the process of a wolf turning into black fragments with her own eyes, and she was suddenly surprised.  "It's normal. I said this is just a small test, or do you really think that in this era, we can still find such wolves appearing in groups in the mountains?" Qingye explained with a smile.  "What are these wolves?" Uesugi Maki asked puzzled.  "They can be regarded as another form of shikigami, but they are part of this formation and are not controlled by someone." Aoba explained.  And just when Aoba was explaining the origin of these wolves to Uesugi Maki, the group started to attack.  Obviously, what happened to a wolf just now still failed to deter the wolves, but instead aroused the ferocity of the wolves. Suddenly, the wolves seemed to be hunting prey on the prairie, one by one, waiting for the opportunity to move toward Aoye and Uesugi.  Maki pounced.  "It's just that with the protection of the golden fox and the spirit fox, the wolves can't do anything to Aoba and Uesugi Maki.  Golden Fox and Linghu didn't even use any other means, they just covered themselves with a golden halo. In this state, as long as they came into contact with wolves, those wolves were like flammable objects ignited by flames, instantly  was burned.  In this way, the number of wolves decreased rapidly, and Uesugi Maki, who was still very scared at first, finally let go of her worries after seeing how powerful her golden fox was.  "Come on, little golden fox, little golden fox is so powerful." Uesugi Maki, no longer worried, even started to cheer for her shikigami.  Seeing Uesugi Maki yelling like a child who got a fun toy, Aoba could only shrug and said he had nothing to say.  However, as the shikigami of Uesugi Maki, Golden Fox is obviously very satisfied with his master's praise of his behavior. The head raised high shows that Golden Fox is in a good mood now.  At this moment, the golden fox even has an increased affection for Uesugi Maki, who is his master. For the first time, he feels that being Uesugi Maki's shikigami is actually a good thing.  Just like this, with Uesugi Maki's cheering, Golden Fox fought bravely like a gun. At first, Spirit Fox managed to kill a few wolves, but later, under Golden Fox's attack, almost most of the wolves were killed.  They were all taken care of by Jin Hu. In the end, Linghu simply stopped taking action and just floated next to Qingye and watched quietly. Anyway, compared to Jin Hu's activeness, Linghu prefers to be quiet, so he can be like this.  If you don't take action, Linghu will have no dissatisfaction.  In this way, with the efforts of Golden Fox, more than a dozen wolves finally turned into black fragments and disappeared.  And just after more than a dozen wolves disappeared, the gloomy surroundings disappeared in an instant. The forest that originally seemed a little gloomy also returned to its normal appearance, and even the plains that seemed to be some distance away before and the patches of grass on them  Buildings suddenly appeared in front of us. Just a few steps ahead, we could walk out of the forest and see the groups of buildings.  Aoba and Uesugi Maki finally successfully arrived at the trial site.  It¡¯s just that at this moment, only Aoba noticed this, while Uesugi Maki¡¯s attention was all on his shikigami, and he didn¡¯t notice the changes around him at all.  (To be continued.)
