438: Departure
"I've forgiven you for the previous incident, you don't have to take it too seriously, you still don't have to go with it this time. "I am very firm in knowing the danger of this operation, knowing that it is dangerous, and letting Xiong Xiaoyun follow, I will only be more distracted.
"You don't have to say anything, go back. I waved her and motioned for her to go out.
Xiong Xiaoyun opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, probably because he saw that my attitude was very resolute, and finally he didn't say anything.
I was the only one left in the room, and I came to the window and looked at the bustling city, and my heart was indescribably heavy.
Looking at it, the pedestrians, cars, and roads in front of me began to slowly shrink, becoming only as big as a small dot, and these small dots were like twinkling stars in the night sky, densely packed.
At the same time, the appearance of the area outside the circle, which I had never seen before, now seems to be faintly visible. It's just that it's very vague and unclear, and it's hard to capture.
I tried to see, trying to make my gaze jump over the edge of the circle and reach beyond the edge.
Like, it's a black river, no, it seems to be a ribbon, it's not, it's like the sea......
I still couldn't see what it was, but I could hear the sound of the water rushing and see every drop of water converging into a rushing river.
They kept flowing in a certain direction, and they kept flowing, and I felt as if I had become one of these many droplets, flowing forward with them. I could see the droplets around me desperately and I could feel the jolting sensation as I flowed.
From the initial trepidation, slowly, I got used to it, and I actually liked the feeling a little.
I love the feeling of being able to wander around and not have to think about anything, nothing to think about, just push forward.
I also like the feeling that the road is unimpeded, and although there are bumps, they can't stop us.
It's wonderful, it's like a beast running wild on the grassland, just like a cow will be very happy when it sees the grassland in front of it, just like a child is the happiest when he plays in the playground.
It will make my heart calm and it will empty my mind of everything.
I couldn't see the expression on my face right now, but I could feel it definitely with a smile on my face.
I stood in front of the window for an unknown amount of time until I was woken up by the shrill sound of a car horn.
Actually, the sound of the car's horn is always there, but during my meditation, I automatically block out all the distractions from the outside world, so I can't hear anything, so that I can devote myself to meditation.
And just now, my mind was detached from meditation, and my shielded ears were opened, so that everything in the outside world could be heard again.
I took a long breath, and then I exhaled, and the air that came out of it shone like a star.
This can't help but surprise me, perhaps, the meditation just now, let me loosen the bottleneck period that I have been unable to break through for a long time?
I didn't expect that the bottleneck period, which had been untenable after spending so much effort before, would be loosened at such a time, but I was not happy at all.
If I seize the time to cultivate the Xingchen Jue at this time, it will definitely be of great help to break through, but now, I don't have the leisure to cultivate, I just want to find Ji Muqing as soon as possible and bring them back safely as soon as possible.
Outside the room was the sound of people talking, bustling, I had been here for so long, they had been waiting outside for so long. They are my friends, and they are willing to go to great lengths for me, and I can't let their worries and concerns be shut out because of my own affairs.
I opened the door and came out to see everyone sitting in the living room.
When they saw me come out, they all stood up.
Xiong Xiaoyun and Zhao Xiaoru were both there, my eyes directly bypassed them, and said to the others, "Everyone go back and pack up, let's gather with me tomorrow morning and set off." ”
"Good. "The voice was loud.
Everyone dispersed one after another, but Xiong Xiaoyun and Zhao Xiaoru stood there looking at me.
I ignored them and turned to leave, when Zhao Xiaoru ran in front of me and blocked my way with open arms, "We're going too." ”
"You can't go. "I don't want to explain too much, I've said everything I need to say.
Zhao Xiaoru snorted, "If you don't tell us to go, we won't go, let me tell you, I'm going to go." If you don't tell us to go, we'll secretly follow. Sister Xiaoyun, let's go, let's go home and pack our things. ”
Xiong Xiaoyun didn't speak, and left with Zhao Xiaoru.
I didn't speak, because at this time, it was useless to say anything.
Early the next morning, we gathered at the agreed place, Ah Bin, Lu Xiaofeng, Pei Xiaofei and He Xiaodong, a total of four people.
I opened the trunk of the car, and just as I did, an elongated car came over and stopped in front of us.
Even if I don't have to look at it, I know that the people in the car must be Xiong Xiaoyun and Zhao Xiaoru.
This scene can't help but remind me of the scene when I went to see Mr. Wei, and many past events came to my mind little by little, and there was a different feeling.
Xiong Xiaoyun and Zhao Xiaoru are both dressed in mountaineering suits, but this still can't hide their heroic appearance.
"I can seat more than a dozen people in this car, especially when I am climbing the mountain, I have a lot of energy, and the car is equipped with enough food and water, are you sure you don't want this car?"
Zhao Xiaoru also echoed, "There are still many unexpected surprises, someone, you'd better think about it before you speak." ”
Someone in her mouth is naturally referring to me.
I had expected that they would not give up, and I also thought that Xiong Xiaoyun would do this, which is very much in line with her style of doing things.
I smiled, didn't speak, and closed the trunk of my car so that everyone knew what I meant.
We got into Xiong Xiaoyun's car, this car is indeed very spacious, the line of sight is good, the strength is very strong, the trunk is full of supplies, I have a rough look, food and water account for a part, and part of it is outdoor products, such as tents, insect repellent and so on.
Xiong Xiaoyun has experience in surviving in the wild, and she has considered everything she should and should not prepare. Having such a person in the team can indeed save a lot of worry.
As for Zhao Xiaoru, she is the living treasure in the team, and the atmosphere along the way depends on her being active.
The car drove slowly on the wide road, slowly driving out of Rongcheng, out of the place where I had stayed for three years. Watching the scenery along the way flash by, the feeling of being in the sea as if you were a drop of water appeared again, but it was only a fleeting thought, and it was very short-lived.
I don't talk much because my mind is a bit chaotic, thinking about this and that.
Probably because of my silence, everyone mistakenly thought that I was worried, Lu Xiaofeng sat next to me, "Master, Master Niang Jiren has his own natural appearance, don't worry." ”
Looking at the others, they all looked at me with a worried look, and I realized how much worry my silence along the way had brought to everyone.
I straightened up, threw the messy thoughts out of my head, and squeezed out a smile to show that I was strong and not as fragile as everyone seemed on the surface.
"Don't worry about me, I don't talk because I'm thinking about something else. Come, all of you, sit down, and I'll tell you about the Phantoms. ”
It was Xiong Xiaoyun who was driving, and other people gathered around.
I briefly introduced the Phantom Gang, and more importantly, there must be a thorough plan for this operation.
So far, there has been no new progress on the cold smoke and snow side, and there is no news on the melanin side, which has caused a lot of variables in our plans.
First, where Ji Muqing's specific location is, it is impossible to determine now; second, it is unknown whether we have been targeted by such a wide range of activities of the Phantom Gang; third, how to accurately find Ji Muqing's location, this is particularly important.
My current plan is to go to the Phantom Gang's base first, and if there is a new situation on the cold smoke and snow side and the melanin side along the way, I am making specific plans.
We are now a total of eight people and can be divided into groups.
If there is no news of Coldsmoke and Melanin before we reach our destination, then we will all go to the base of the Phantom Gang, and if they have any other news, we can divide several of us into groups and act separately.
"That's what my current plan is, what do you think, and is there anything else you would like to add?" I said, and then asked for everyone's opinions.
They don't have any opinions, everything is up to me.
We traveled overnight and arrived at Xiahai that evening.
I contacted Miao Zheng in advance and asked him to arrange a ship for me.
From the ferry to the sea, I can shorten the distance and save a lot of time, and now every minute and every second is so urgent, I have to hurry.
After meeting Miao Zheng, he kept chasing me and asked, "What happened, is it Xiaoqing's accident, why are you talking?" ”
I grabbed Miao Zheng's arm, "Xiaoqing was probably captured by the Phantom Gang, I'm going to look for them now." ”
"I'll go with you. "I expected that as long as I told the truth, Miao Zheng would definitely follow.
I stopped him, "I know I can't stop you, but I want to warn you, I'm not sure if Xiaoqing and them are on the other side of the base now, if he is not there, then I won't even have a chance to fight back." So, you have to stay. ”
Miao Zheng looked at me steadily, and after a long time, he finally nodded, "Go ahead." ”
Our group did not rest, but got on the ship and hurried all night.
