9. I wish Talan, Despair and Suspicion - add more to the Frostfang's Claw Brothers
The day after he was rescued, Anduin thought he could go out for some activity today. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He had dark circles on his face, this was because he slept late last night, Zhou Zhuo asked all kinds of strange questions, and at the end of the question, the little prince knew from Zhou Zhuo's eyes that this kind but cunning panda man wandering scholar already knew his identity.
But neither of them thought it would be a troublesome issue.
There is also good news that Lili and Swain have woken up, although Sven is avoiding him, Anduin is still happy to know that his good friend has woken up, Zhou Zhuo promised last night that they would take them to the Qinglong Temple today to meet the great Qinglong Yulong to ask for the opinion of this holy spirit.
But just as Anduin yawned and pushed open the door, he saw Zhou Zhuo and another panda man dressed strangely and exuding the cold aura of a warrior all over their bodies, sitting in the courtyard talking, with a rare serious expression on the face of the scholar.
When Anduin pushed the door open, Zhu Talan's eyes focused on this foreigner for the first time, he saw Anduin take a step back, this is normal, in the face of the warrior monks who practice the way of treading the wind, few ordinary people will not be afraid, although the momentum on their bodies will be controlled, but a guy like Zhu Talan, even if he controls himself, just the fierce aura in his eyes still makes him never disguise himself as a sheep.
"Foreigner, let me ask you, have you encountered any strange things on your way here, such as crazy people, such as guys who suddenly fall to their knees and cry?"
Zhu Talan spoke, his voice was very imposing, but it was as cold as a piece of ice, Anduin subconsciously held the hilt of the sword behind his back, but Zhou Zhuo took a step forward, frowned and said loudly,
"Okay, I wish you, you've scared my guests!"
Zhu Talan's eyes picked, but then he took a step back, the scholars have always been mysterious, and Zhou Zhuo is the best among them, even if it is the Shadow Trace Sect, they are not willing to offend these strange-tempered hermits, and they have a great reputation among the commoners, and it is a little impossible to destroy the relationship between the two sides for a foreigner.
You scholar beckoned to Anduin in a friendly manner, the latter hesitated, let go of the hilt of the sword, and walked to Zhou Zhuo's side, and then he heard Zhou Zhuo ask,
"Anduin, do you recall, before you set foot in Pandaria, did you encounter any strange things that Master Zhu said?"
Seeing that Anduin was still a little vigilant in his eyes when he looked at Zhu Talan, Zhou Zhuo opened his mouth to explain,
"This is the head of the Shadow Trace Sect, Zhu Talan, one of the strongest warrior monks in Pandaria, for thousands of years, the Shadow Trace Sect has guarded the peace of Pandaria, he is equivalent to... Well, in your words, the highest military commander in the area, you know, we panda people don't have an army. ā
Anduin nodded, and he didn't need to remember it at all, so he told General Taylor and those sailors, not that he didn't remember those soldiers, but the main thing was that he couldn't figure out the details of Zhou Zhuo yesterday, and he was born in the royal family, although Anduin may not like intrigues, but it doesn't mean that he won't be defensive.
After listening to the little prince's narration, Zhou Zhuo's eyes shone with a serious light, but Zhu Talan relaxed instead, he looked at You Scholar,
"It's just a slight leak, and outside the fog, it means that the demon hasn't broken through the seal yet, but You Scholar, I have to take these foreigners back to the Shadow Trace Zen Temple, it's too dangerous to let them walk on this land, you know, their emotions are not as stable as our people, once they cause some trouble..."
There was no room for Zhou Zhuo to refute in the words of the warrior monk, and the scholar was not a person who did not know the importance of it, he knew very well that Emperor Shaohao had sealed 6 kinds of demons composed of emotions under this land, but the sealing place was not clear, in fact, the optimistic and peaceful mood of the local panda people was forced out.
In order to prevent the demon from counterattacking, before Shao Hao turned into a fog, his last order was to disband all the military forces of Pandaria, leaving only the Shadow Sect to guard the Great Wall to deal with the once-in-a-millennium mantis demon invasion, and only the peaceful and optimistic panda people can survive under this fragile peace, and live well, if it is replaced by an emotional fierce orc living here, it is estimated that it may not even survive 10 years, and it will be wiped out by the demon.
So even if Zhou Zhuo was unwilling to let Zhu Talan take Anduin and his friends, there was no reason to refuse at the moment, but some scholars looked at Anduin's worried eyes and gritted their teeth,
"Yes, but I'm going with them!"
"Huh?"
Zhu Talan glanced at Zhou Zhuo in surprise, at this time, Zhu Talan seemed to have mortal emotions, and he even started joking,
"You don't think that the Shadow Trace Zen Monastery will use violence to torture them, right? With the impartial Snow Stream Master here, this situation will not happen!"
Zhou Zhuo smiled generously and shook off his wide robe,
"I know you're trying to say it's an old-fashioned old guy, and I think so... As for them, I just don't want these kids to feel like they're being bullied. ā
When the two of them spoke, they were in the dialect of the panda people, and Anduin couldn't understand it, but he guessed that Zhou Zhuo probably reached some kind of agreement with Zhu Talan, and finally Zhu Zhangmen glanced at Anduin and said to You Scholar,
"We're going to go to Zhujiabao, which guards the South China Sea border, and the tracer responds that something strange happened there two days ago. ā
Looking at Anduin's slightly frightened eyes, Zhu Talan withdrew his gaze and whispered to himself,
"Let's hope everything is okay there, too. ā
2 hours later, on the neck of the rice master, Anduin and Lili, who had just recovered from a serious illness, held one of the horns of the rice master, shouting and watching the dragon soar freely in the sky of Pandaria, at this time the rice master is no longer the small dragon with the length of the arm when he first saw it, but a monster with a body length of more than 50 meters, after being completely enlarged, the rice master no longer has that cute appearance, on the contrary, the majesty and nobility fill its whole body, just like the real spiritual object between heaven and earth.
Sitting on the back of the dragon, Sven took care of the newly awakened Lex, this druid was very painfully transformed by those cultists, his body was always like a flame, but the master himself was proficient in fire magic, so he was not afraid of the flames on Lex.
"Where is that? Zhou Zhuo, it's so beautiful there!"
Anduin's long golden hair was blown by the wind, and he turned his head and pointed to the steppe beneath him, which was almost completely covered with green, and the neatly laid out terraces, and the scattered farms, and finally a beautiful and intoxicating lake in the distance.
"It's the Valley of the Four Winds, child, the most beautiful and peaceful place in all of Pandaria, and the best beer, and where the real chefs gather, Mid-Levels, if I have time, I can take you to Mid-Levels to taste the real deliciousness, by the way, Lili, if I'm not mistaken, your ancestors lived here. ā
Hearing Zhou Zhuo's words, the red panda, whose face was still a little pale, turned his head, looked at the scholar in surprise, and asked in a sharp voice,
"Really?"
Zhou Zhuo nodded and pointed in the direction of the southwest with his finger, "There, there is the ancestral brewery of the Storm Spirits family, it is said that the people there are all surnamed Storm Spirits, and in the whole of Pandaria, only there matches your surname." ā
Lili's eyes widened, looking at the same building as the little ant in the distance, her mood was inexplicably a little low,
"If Uncle Chen and Dad knew, they would die of joy, they had spent their lives looking for the land of Storm Spirits, and Master Shangxi... Oh my God, I'm starting to think about them, why did I run out on my own?"
Anduin saw Lili's sadness, and couldn't help but whisper to comfort the runaway red panda, Zhou Zhuo seemed to look down on everything, he shook his head, and turned his gaze to the front, there was a towering cliff, the height difference was hundreds of meters, under that cliff, was the area south of Pandalia by the sea, the Kasanlang jungle, a place full of mysterious lost monuments, and all kinds of dangerous creatures.
Even Zhu Talan, who was sitting on the back of a mighty black dragon next to him, turned serious, the Kasanlang Jungle was not a good place, not for anyone.
Few panda people will set foot there, and only the most powerful warrior monk families and the monks who guard the Zhuhe Temple will settle there, and when Zhou Zhuo traveled here, if it wasn't for the protection of Mi Shi, he would have become the mouth of those savage lizardmen bandits.
However, just ten minutes later, when they landed on the ground, Zhu Talan's eyes suddenly widened, in fact, it was not just him, even Zhou Zhuo and Sven, who was holding Lex behind, couldn't help but grow their mouths.
"Here... What's going on here?"
Anduin and Lili were in the end, the little prince and the little panda couldn't help but hold their weapons when they saw this scene in front of them, and Lili also hummed her little pig and released it from the magic reins given by Master Shangxi, as a result, as soon as the little pig landed, they roared loudly in the direction of Zhujiabao in front of them.
Obviously, the thin demigod blood in this little pig's body is warning that there is danger ahead!
It's not that the big town in front of you is full of death, in fact everyone is alive and well, but they are in a strange state.
The neatly dressed warrior monk sat on the ground with a halberd, talking to himself and not knowing what he was talking about, farther away, most of the people were sitting or lying in place, looking loveless, the only few guys walking around the town looked abnormal, everyone didn't communicate with others, and even Zhu Talan was very suspicious that they didn't see the guys around them.
"Hey, Yimo, what are you doing here? What's going on? Why don't you go on patrol?"
Zhu Talan quickly found the leader of the warrior monks in Zhujiabao, but this fierce warrior monk who was over half a hundred years old only raised his eyelids and glanced at him in the face of Zhu Talan's questioning, and said lazily,
"Ah, it's Zhu Zhang, we're fine!"
Yi Mo tugged at his mouth, "We just suddenly feel depressed, I don't know why, we feel like everything we've done is meaningless." ā
"But you're on the job of guarding Kasanlang! Bastard, get up for me!"
Zhu Talan stepped forward, and was about to call these unknown warrior monks, but was stopped by Zhou Zhuo, You Scholar walked up, and communicated with Yi Mo, to everyone's surprise, the people here clearly preserved their will, and even their memories were clear, and they knew that their state was wrong, but they just couldn't change it!
But just when Zhu Talan and Zhou Zhuo were busy figuring out what was going on here, Anduin looked at the panda people around him in a daze, like walking corpses, he felt that this scene was a little inexplicably familiar, until Lili stabbed him with the warrior monk stick in her hand, and he woke him up.
"What are you thinking? Anduin? Scared? Don't worry, these slackers are just trying to be lazy, I've seen those monkeys in Lost Isles, that's how they were when they wanted to be lazy. ā
Facing Lili's very confident explanation, Anduin smiled with difficulty, then stepped forward, took Zhou Zhuo's arm, and whispered,
"Zhou Zhuo, the panda people here are not depressed! they are despair, they are shrouded in despair!"
"What? despair?"
You Scholar and Zhu Talan looked at the little prince for the first time, and the latter organized the language and said quickly,
"Yes, I've heard my father say that after the defeat of the orcs, they were taken to shelters all over the Eastern Continent, and those orcs who broke down and were desperate were like that, the walking dead, you panda people may never really despair, so you don't know what this means, but their appearance, and those orcs that my father described, are almost... It's exactly the same!"
At this time, Lili suddenly shouted,
"Anduin, Anduin, your sword is glowing!"
The little prince suddenly pulled out the oath practitioner behind him, and sure enough, the white fluorescent light danced on the blade of the sword, as if to sign... Sort of ominous.
