But before the words fell, a fragrant wind drifted around me, making my nose twitch inadvertently.

When I opened my eyes, I found that Lianxin's thin and cool lips were close to my mouth, but they only gently brushed the corners of my lips and left me like lightning.

"Aren't you coming with me?" asked Lianxin softly.

I tugged at the hoop on my collarbone and said, "Do I have a choice?"

Lianxin took my hand, and then the two of us ran briskly towards the bamboo forest at the back of the villa.

"Isn't there only one road to this bamboo grove villa?" I asked.

"Outsiders only know that there is one way. But Lu Yufei told me that there is also an improvised bridge floating on the water in the rear. The location is very secluded, but I have only heard about it and have never walked it. Lianxin took my hand and said.

"That means you're not sure. ”

"Of course. If you are 100% sure of everything, then what is the meaning of life?" said Lianxin.

Then the two of us tiptoed past the secret whistle in the bamboo villa. On a dangerous beach at the edge of the bamboo forest, he stopped.

"Where do you think the improvised bridge is?" I asked, confused.

"Uh... I've only heard about it. Lianxin said with some embarrassment.

"Why don't we go through the front door generously. ”

Hearing this, Lianxin pulled the chain and said sharply, "No!"

I glanced at the rushing river and said, "Shall we go fishing here?"

Lotus Heart gave me a blank look and walked to the edge of the bamboo forest. Then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he poked out his right palm slightly towards the bamboo forest in front of him, and the strange snake tattoo on his left arm rotated at high speed, and one of the white snakes broke free from the restraints and happily jumped into the wrist of his right arm.

"Purgatory Ripples!"

With a low sound, an invisible aura, centered on the feet of the lotus heart, spread to the surroundings like ripples on the surface of the water!

"Awesome. ”

"Do you want to learn? I can teach you. Lianxin withdrew her jade hand and said.

"Really? Tell me about it. ”

Hearing this, Lianxin stretched out her left hand to me and made a request.

"What do you need?" I asked, confused.

"Give me the silver hairpin. ”

I paused, but did so. Lotus Heart pointed to the two lines of inscription on the silver hairpin and said, "This is the practice of 'Purgatory Ripples'." ”

I looked at the small print on it, and I basically couldn't read a word.

As if to see my distress, Lianxin grabbed my wrist, held up the silver hairpin and said, "I know you can't read it, so I'll translate it for you." ”

"Y-What are you going to do?"

"Engraved on your arm, of course. ”

The words fell, and I didn't wait for me to react. The silver hairpin in Lianxin's hand began to circulate rapidly, and two lines of big characters were engraved on my arm.

I grinned in pain, looked at my bloody arm and said, "This word, you don't need to engrave it so big, right?"

"It's small, what should you do if you can't see clearly?" said Lianxin casually threw the "silver hairpin" to me.

Take a closer look, "Purgatory Ripples" is a kind of exercise to improve the strength of the feet, practice to the fullest, you can fly the eaves and walk on the wall, treading water.

Seeing that I was puzzled, Lian Xinyu raised her hand lightly and explained, "Although I was waving my hand just now, the 'Purgatory Ripple' relies on the soles of my feet to exert force, and my hands are just a trick to cover my eyes. ”

I looked at the mess in front of me and asked, "That's good, but will you expose our whereabouts by doing this?"

"It's fine. I use very little force. Lianxin said.

"Then why are you interrupting those bamboos?"

"Tie up the bamboo raft. Lotus Heart said with a small waist.

"This river is so urgent. Isn't it dangerous to ride on a bamboo raft?"

"Have you forgotten what I said? Lianxin said in a deep voice.

I paused, "You're ruthless." ”

After that, I tied the broken bamboos together with straw rope and made them into a simple bamboo raft with all my might.

"Your Majesty, please come aboard. I picked up a bamboo pole and gasped.

But the words of "Lotus Heart" almost didn't make me angry!

"No, I've found the improvised pontoon. ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I just saw it, too. Pointing to the water, Lotus Heart said,

In the direction of her finger, a plank of wood that was about to be bound by a rope loomed beneath the rushing water. From a distance, it looks like a giant snake winding underwater, stretching all the way to the river bank in the distance.

What kind of bridge is this? It's just a "float" floating on the river..."

"Let's go. It's less than 200 meters from the riverbank, so run with me. Lianxin said.

"No, I can't. It's too dangerous. Compared to the crumbling float on the water, my bamboo raft is many times better than it. I stopped.

Hearing this, the lotus heart jade hand waved, and a few wisps of black and white flames instantly burned the bamboo raft I had worked so hard to make into ashes...

"You..."

"What's wrong with me?" said the latter, innocently spreading his hands.

I smiled wryly and shook my head, "Nothing. ”

Lianxin threw her high heels at me, then tugged at the bracelet and said, "I'll show you the way ahead." Just use the mental method on the silver hairpin just now, and try to run with me. ”

When the words fell, Lianxin's little feet stepped lightly on the ground, and invisible ripples spread out under his feet. Like a flying seabird, stepping on a plank floating on the water, it quickly skimmed to the opposite shore.

I hung the latter's high heels around my neck with straw ropes. Then I took a few deep breaths, tried to run the exercises, and followed closely behind the plank.

Compared with the graceful lotus step of the lotus heart, the image of me running wild is completely running for my life...

But despite all my might, there was still no invisible ripple of air under my feet. As you can imagine, halfway through the run, I fell off the swinging plank into the river!

I couldn't swim, and when I fell into the river, I had to hold on to the floating plank, but I couldn't climb up on my own.

"How can this work?"

Just as I was panicking, a red shadow suddenly appeared above my head. Standing tall and calm above the water. It was as if it was not a floating plank, but a solid foundation.

"You like to see me embarrassed, don't you?" I said, wiping the water stains off my head.

The latter lifted his little foot and gently stepped my head into the water, "No! I like to see you dying and struggling." ”

Sinking into the river in an instant, oxygen began to become precious. As the air in my lungs dwindled, I began to swim desperately towards the water. But no matter how hard I tried, I would be pushed back into the water by a merciless hand.

The lack of oxygen made my consciousness blurry. The arm that grabbed the plank also began to gradually detach.

Then I felt my body sink and slowly fall into the dark water! At this time, in the dark space, it was as if countless giant hands stretched out, dragging me into the abyss of death!

But just as I closed my eyes, the iron ring on my chest suddenly moved. Then a huge force instantly dragged me out of the water.

I greedily breathed the oxygen in the air, and the things that were usually colorless and odorless became as sweet as honey at this moment.

After taking a breath, I found myself stuck in the gap between two planks. And the lotus heart was just above the top of my head.

I looked up at the top of my head and looked at my jade-like legs and said, "Are you satisfied?"

Lianxin stepped my head on the wooden board with her feet, "I'll read that exercise once." Why are you so stupid?"

I grabbed the plank and said angrily, "What are you so proud of? I'm going out to lunch with you, not practicing with you, and using you to count me down here." ”

"Yo, are you still angry?"

When the words fell, Lianxin pressed the soles of his feet, and directly stepped on the wooden board of the cushion through my head!

"I'll tell you. I'm teaching you life-saving things. Imagine that you were going to run for your life from here today, but if I weren't here, you would have sunk to the bottom and drowned!"

Hearing this, I paused, and looked at Lianxin's eyes, and there was a little more warmth.

"Can you give me a hand?" I said, holding out my hand.

Hearing this, Lianxin just coldly threw out a sentence and turned away. "No one can save you, come up by yourself. ”

Looking at her back, I carefully studied the exercises on my arm again, and then slowly closed my eyes in the rushing river.

But I was too stupid, so I could only settle for the next best. Grabbing the planks on the float, he climbed to the other side little by little.

Faced with Lianxin's contempt, I could only smile awkwardly.

"How did I forget, you can still crawl over?" said Lianxin, standing above me.

I was exhausted, lying on the beach panting for breath and trying to explain, only to find myself speechless.

"Kung Fu is not learned in a day, and it will only backfire if you pull out the seedlings like this. I said cheekily.

Lianxin lifted her little foot, stepped on the wound on my collarbone and said, "Opportunistic people can't achieve much power." ”

I grinned in pain and put the high heels around my neck on the latter. "With this step, I hurt my foot. ”

But before I could finish speaking, the sharp heel of my shoe immediately stepped on my neck.

"I will not show mercy to those who do not seek progress. The breath is almost even, and now drag the 'grinding plate' with me. Lianxin pointed to a small "stone mill" on the bank of the river and said.

"That broken stone is at least 100 pounds, why am I dragging it?"

Hearing this, Lianxin's eyes instantly turned blood-red, and the strength under her feet became a little stronger, "Whatever I tell you to do, you can do it!"

Seeing this, I hurriedly patted the latter's ankle and said - submissive - submissive.

Then there was a strange scene on the bank of the river. A woman as noble as an empress slowly led the way. And on the metal chain of her wrist, there is also a man who is laboriously dragging a stone mill.

"Your Majesty, I said could you slow down?" I gasped.

"It's you walking too slowly. ”

I dragged the stone mill up a hill and said, "Okay, let's go for lunch." Look where you've taken me? In the wilderness, you let me drink the northwest wind?"

"It's almost there. Lianxin pointed to a small hill in the distance.

"What's coming? At least 1 km away!"

"One kilometer is one kilometer. I'll fix the hoop for you in the middle of the night. I still struggled to extract your teeth early in the morning, what's wrong with you helping me drag a 'grinding plate' for 1 kilometer?"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be speechless. You almost didn't kill me, and I still have to be grateful to Dade?
