16. Dark undercurrents

Anduin had a long dream in which he saw his mother, Queen Tiffine, the woman who had left only a few words and a vague impression in his life, and had disappeared into the flow of time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He dreamed of being embraced by her warm embrace, dreaming of himself playing in her arms, that peace of mind, that unspeakable attachment, but the moment he was about to open his eyes and see his mother's face, he opened them.

What came into view was a wall painted with various myths and stories, which seemed to be the stories that Zhou Zhuo had told him, the story of Shao Hao and the Monkey King looking for the power that could really save Pandaria, and there was a faint voice around him, which could probably be distinguished as Lili's voice, sharp and with a hint of joy.

Why is she so happy?

Oh, by the way, Lao Chen, Lao Chen should be rescued.

"Ahem... Ahem"

Anduin coughed hard, his throat was about to smoke, and the next moment, a warm embrace picked him up, the little prince couldn't turn back, his whole body hurt, but the scent, the gardenia-like scent, Swain, that timid night elf druid, was she picking herself up?

Anduin's heart beat fast again at the thought of the abrupt kiss from before, but when a glass of sweet water was poured down his throat, all the absurd thoughts vanished.

Sven gently put a pillow behind Anduin's back so that he could sit up, the night elf's arm was still wrapped in bandages, obviously, fighting the little demon is not an easy job, the little prince smiled at her, and then looked to the side, Lao Chen was lying on the bed next to him, this sturdy panda man was much worse than him, his whole body was almost covered with bandages, and his left hand was also tied with a long bandage, which hung softly on his chest, obviously, his arm was broken.

Zhou Zhuo is carefully helping the two patients boil the medicine, the panda people have their own set of treatment methods, they use herbs to regulate the body, Anduin in the previous trip, heard Lao Chen say that those medicines are very effective, but most of them are difficult to drink.

Lili also said that the more bitter the medicine is, the better it can make the sick body recover.

Lao Chen also saw the awakened Anduin, he turned his head, looked at the little prince, and said sincerely,

"Hi boy, I owe you my life. ”

Lili also turned her head, the red panda had bandages with the scent of herbs wrapped around her ears and shoulders, and it looked very funny, obviously, her fight was not easy, but she still said to Anduin,

"You're a good guy, even Lord Red is praising your bravery, you're back to being a real hero, if the panda people of Pandalia knew that you saved Lord Red Spirit, they would definitely thank you from the bottom of their hearts!"

Anduin smirked, he had doubted whether he could do these things before he stormed the temple, but now it turned out that he was braver than he thought, and of course, luckier.

But just as the two of them were talking, the pale-faced Zhu Talan walked into this slightly dilapidated room, and the expression of this panda man warrior monk, who was always indifferent, was now a little softer, probably because this group of people proved themselves in the battle, and they also saved Lord Chijing.

What if something happens to the red spirit who represents hope... Zhu Talan couldn't imagine what would happen.

But this panda man warrior monk was definitely not going around for nothing, in fact, when he spoke, everyone's attention was drawn to his side.

"Everyone, take a rest, in 2 hours, we will rush to the Shadow Trace Zen Temple, it is a long journey from the Red Spirit Perch to the Shadow Trace Meditation Temple, I hope you can hold on. ”

The others didn't know where the Trace Zen Temple was, only Zhou Zhuo, who was boiling medicine, raised his eyebrows and asked,

"Why are you in such a hurry? I don't think I will be able to get there until tomorrow afternoon, they are all patients, and they can't stand the long haul. ”

Zhu Talan sighed, this was the first time this warrior monk had made such a helpless expression, he sat on the chair, rubbing his wrists, and said,

"It's troublesome, I just asked the Crested Crane monk who escaped the catastrophe, and he told me that the Evil of Sorrow did not break the seal by himself, but someone broke it! ”

"What!"

Zhou Zhuo stood up all of a sudden, he looked at Zhu Talan in disbelief, and shouted indignantly,

"Who would do such a thing? Is he crazy? Who broke the circle? the buffalo people, or the lizardmen? or the madmen, the mantis demons?"

Zhu Talan's eyes turned to the others, to be precise, he looked at Anduin, which made the little prince a little overwhelmed, and then he heard the warrior monk say,

"According to the monk, it's a foreigner... Humans, Anduin, to be exact!"

"It can't be.. Ahh

Anduin jumped up from the bed in excitement, but before he could jump, he fell on the bed again because of the severe pain in his body, he didn't care about the pain, and said loudly,

"This can't be, Zhu Master, the crew of the Royal Mission are all in the fog, and in fact there is no one among them who can break the seal... Unless, unless it's those cultists, but they're dead, I'll kill them with my own hands!"

Valera, who was leaning against the door, also whispered,

"This kid is right, warrior monk, when we came, there were only about 20 people left in the crew, all of whom were placed in your village, and it was impossible for them to go around and go ashore on the same day to destroy the circle, it was just a group of rude sailors. ”

Zhu Talan said in a deep voice,

"I believe Anduin's words, but I also believe the monk's words, the monks of the Suzawa Monastery cannot lie, their oaths bind them, then the only explanation is that there were other people who landed from the south of Pandalia that day, besides you, according to the monk's words, a middle-aged man with a cat in his arms, gray hair, wearing a black robe, he came out of the forest, and entered the Suho Temple politely, he spoke Salas, and from his speech, it can be seen that he is a very learned man. ”

"He asked to see Lord Chijing, but after being politely refused, he was looking through the materials in the library of Zhuhe Temple, and less than half an hour after he left, the Devil of Sorrow broke through the seal, it is hard to say that this has nothing to do with the middle-aged man, and the most troublesome thing now is that we don't know where he went? So I have to rush back to the Trace Zen Monastery as soon as possible, mobilize the entire Pandalia Shadow Walkers, and find the culprit!"

The warrior monk waved his fist, bringing up the whirring wind,

"That bastard killed at least 300 people!

Everyone was digesting this shocking news, and finally Lao Chen spoke,

"That's... Where is the Shadow Zen Monastery? We made an appointment with Dick to wait for him at a place called Mid-Mountain. ”

Zhou Zhuo replied,

"The Shadow Trace Monastery is one of the supreme colleges of all the warrior monks in Pandaria, and it is also the base camp of the Shadow Trace Sect, it is located in the most mysterious valley of Kunlai Mountain, that place is in the northernmost part of Pandaria, and the halfway point is in the center of the Valley of the Four Winds, but don't worry, we will pass by Mid-Mountain, where you can find your friends. ”

Zhou Zhuo pursed his lips and said to Zhu Talan,

"Anduin, they don't have to follow us to the Shadow Zen Temple, do they?"

Zhu Talan thought for a moment and nodded, his eyes as he looked at Anduin and his party were full of some kind of trust,

"No need, they have already proven their position, and you, Chen, you are an excellent warrior monk, you should join the Shadow Trace Sect and contribute to your hometown. ”

Lao Chen smiled,

"I'll think about it, Zhu Chief, I want to go back to the clan land first, worship the ancestors, and then find a way to send the news of Pandaria to the relatives on the Lost Island, after that, if you still need me, I will join." ”

Lili also waved her little fist and screamed,

"Zhu Zhangmen, you are also very powerful, you are the first panda man I have ever seen who can beat my Uncle Chen!"

"Hahaha, the elders of Sunny Sun Peak will be happy to see the secret technique of the Storm Spirit reappear in Pandaria, the ancestor of the Storm Spirit is a powerful warrior monk of the highest rank. ”

Zhu Talan laughed twice, and then said to everyone,

"The good news is that Lord Akami will be on a journey with us, and you will be able to cross Pandaria on the back of the gods, you are the first lucky ones ever. ”

Just as Lao Chen and his group were about to set off, in the middle of the mountain, their destination, this bustling panda town, a guest with a cat in his arms was savoring the fish soup in front of him with a spoon, and his cat was lying on the table, eating delicious fish meat in another small plate, and meowing contentedly from time to time.

"Ah, what a rare delicacy, I've never tasted such a delicacy. ”

Kel'thugad finished the last spoonful of the fish soup and put the spoon on the plate contentedly, he arrived in the middle of the mountain this morning, and he sat here and ordered two dishes, and he has been eating until now, the service of these top panda chefs is excellent, and there is a small stove under the fish soup, constantly heating the delicious soup to prevent it from colding.

Seeing that Kel'thugad picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, the chubby pandaman waiter came over and asked in a low voice,

"Guest, do you need anything else?"

Kel'thugad waved his hand, took out a few gold coins from his bosom and handed them to the waiter, who was in a trance for a moment, and subconsciously said,

"That's too much, guest, just half a piece. ”

"Uh, it's okay, you can help me fill 5 small fish cakes, Mr. Bigworth likes that kind of food, but he can't let this little cutie eat more, that thing is too greasy, by the way, I heard that you have a creature here called the Mantis Demon, they believe in evil gods, right?"

The panda man nodded stunned, his eyes were a little dull, and he subconsciously said,

"Yes, the mantis demons live on the Praying Mantis Plateau outside the Great Wall, and the Fear Wasteland, they will attack every hundred years, for thousands of years, the evil god they believe in is said to have seven eyes, the head and horns of the black goat, and the breath are all the actual evil of fear, simply hundreds of thousands of years ago, the evil was destroyed, this is what those traveling scholars said, I think it should be true, and only that kind of evil god can create such a terrifying demon race. ”

Hearing the seven eyes, the head of the black goat, and the curved horns, Kel'thugad's eyes flashed, he knocked lightly on the table, and the panda man's eyes immediately cleared, he looked at Kel'thugad, and asked respectfully,

"Guest, do you need anything?"

"Ah, I want to ask, where is the place where the deepest wisdom is hidden?"

The pandaman man laughed, as if he had heard a stupid question, and he very diligently cleaned up the table, and said to Kel'thugad,

"Of course it's the Qinglong Temple, the Qinglong Temple in the Emerald Forest, where the Qinglong that represents wisdom is located! The wisdom of the Heavenly Temple should not be underestimated, after all, it used to be a royal temple, but ordinary people can't go there. ”

A few minutes later, the chubby pandaman man brought the small fish cake in it, and Kel'thugad reached out to take it, sat on his magic carpet, and floated all the way down the path towards the Great Wall in the westernmost part of the Valley of the Four Winds, in the process, all the busy panda chefs did not pay much attention to this stranger.

Or, in their eyes, it's just an ordinary panda person.

"Ahh Yashaji, Qinglong, Four Saints... Do you know, Mr. Bigworth, I am more and more grateful to the little prince, how much joy he has brought me!"

"Meow~Meow~"

"Well, let's go see the mantis demon first, and then we'll come back and drink fish soup, okay?"

"Meow~"
