Chapter 46: Entering the Game
After Qi Daoyuan returned to the small courtyard, he informed everyone about the Li tribe and asked for everyone's opinions.
Zhu Zhixiang touched his chin, pondered for a moment and said, "According to Brother Qi, it seems that our experience this time is not as simple as it seems. ”
Qi Daoyuan nodded and said, "Yes, I originally thought that this secret realm was just for us to fight monsters and upgrade, but I didn't expect that there would be a Southern Xinjiang Five Clans, and there were so many strange things." ”
Xu Huai said: "Since the five clans have so many unresolved matters, then it is better for us not to get involved too much, as long as we kill the Ten Thousand Bat King, even if we have completed the task arranged by the master, the experience will be over." ”
Zhu Zhixiang also echoed: "What Senior Brother Xu said is not unreasonable, the affairs of the five clans are too strange, and we really don't need to wade into this troubled water." Since the Tanuki King is a demonic beast cultivated by the Li Clan's Holy Beast Neidan, presumably the Ten Thousand Bat King should be a demonic beast cultivated by the Fu Clan's Holy Beast Neidan, let's just hide in the shadows, and slowly cultivate while exploring his details. After the strength is refined, go straight to its lair, so that this trial can be regarded as a clean and smooth completion, isn't it beautiful?"
Qi Daoyuan frowned, shook his head and said, "I originally thought the same way, but after thinking about it on the way back, I'm afraid things won't be as simple as we thought." ”
Zhu Zhixiang asked, "How do you say this?" ”
"Actually, we've always overlooked a very important point, and the Tanuki King easily found us, don't you think it's a bit of a coincidence?"
After Qi Daoyuan finished speaking, everyone fell into a short silence, and after a while, Xu Huai said: "This matter is indeed a little strange, it is said that the place where we are is already remote, and there is a cloud smoke lock maze set up by Senior Sister Shen, even if the Tanuki King is a demonic beast of the Fake Dan Realm, it should be difficult to detect easily." ”
Zhu Zhixiang said: "The Tanuki King has been aware of our existence since a long distance, and it is theoretically impossible, so ......"
"Yes, so the most likely reason is that we were actually targeted by a certain being from the beginning, and then he revealed our location to the Tanuki King, and then there was a series of things that followed. ”
"Moreover, I was able to find the Li clan today, also because I met Hong Si who was bitten by a poisonous snake halfway, but the location where he appeared was too coincidental, and he was actually on the road I was traveling, which is really scary!"
After Qi Daoyuan said this, everyone suddenly felt a chill in their backs, if this was the case, then how powerful this existence must be to be able to arrange so many things unknowingly?
Shen Yunzhu asked uneasily: "Brother Qi, the existence behind this is so powerful, why didn't you capture us in the first place, why did you go through such a lot of trouble?"
Qi Daoyuan said with a wry smile: "In the eyes of this level of existence, killing may be just the lowest way to be pleasant, in comparison, they prefer to be chess players, by manipulating chess pieces to push events in the direction they want." ”
Zhu Zhixiang said: "Brother Qi, from your point of view, could this existence be someone in the Li clan, is there any suspicion between the Huaxi patriarch and Hong Si?"
Qi Daoyuan shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, Huaxi and Hong Si don't have this ability, and they don't have such a city, and I have explored the Li clan, and I haven't found anyone with such strength." Of course, with the cultivation of this kind of existence, it is also very possible to deliberately hide it without being discovered by others, but I always feel that this probability is not very high. ”
Zhu Zhixiang said: "In this case, wouldn't we be able to have more contact with the Li people first and obtain some useful information in case we need it?"
Qi Daoyuan touched his nose and said: "I did have this idea before, but I found out that the Huaxi Patriarch deliberately had something to hide from me, and it was probably not easy to find out the ins and outs of the matter from her." ”
Seeing that everyone was deep in thought again, Li Shuqiu finally couldn't help but interject and said: "Master once said that as long as we are strong, all enemies can be killed with one sword, in fact, as long as our strength can be improved quickly, these problems are not a problem!"
Li Shuqiu is not only sharp, but also simple and direct in speaking and doing things, but I have to admit that what she said does make some sense.
Qi Daoyuan temporarily dispelled the haze shrouded in his heart, as the captain, he must boost morale, the trial has just begun, and now is not the time to be discouraged.
"Senior Sister Killing Qiu is right, striking iron still needs its own hardness, and the most important thing at present is still to improve strength. As long as the strength is strong enough, any enemy is a chicken!"
"There should be a lot of strange beasts in the dense forest behind, let's hunt a few more together in the next two days, and use the goblins to improve the realm as soon as possible!"
Everyone nodded in agreement, but Zhu Zhixiang obviously wanted to say something.
Qi Daoyuan asked, "Does Senior Brother Zhu have anything to say?"
Zhu Zhixiang smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I was a little uncomfortable when I saw Brother Qi suddenly being so serious." ”
Qi Daoyuan asked a little strangely: "What, was I very unserious before?"
"Well, it's not serious!" replied in unison.
Qi Daoyuan's face changed slightly, and he said, "I think you may have misunderstood me and didn't really understand my heart and essence!"
Shen Yunzhu covered the corners of his mouth lightly and said with a smile: "Brother Qi, I've known you for so long, and today is the first time I've seen you so serious!"
Qi Daoyuan felt a heavy blow in his heart, could I really be so funny, didn't I?
"Give me three feet of red silk, let me hang myself here, and you will definitely see the snow in June!"
"Hahaha!"
......
After laughing and laughing, everyone's mood was much better, only Qi Daoyuan sighed in his heart, I don't know how long this free and happy time can last......
In the early morning of the next day, the five of them re-entered the dense forest, but at the end of the day, except for countless poisonous snakes and poisonous insects, they did not encounter a single strange beast.
Looking at the dense forest that seemed to have changed its appearance, everyone felt a faint uneasiness in their hearts, feeling that something bad was about to happen.
As the sun set, they returned to the nameless mountain with a little loss, and only halfway up the mountain, they suddenly heard someone shouting intermittently in the distance.
"Benefactor ......"
"Where are you ......?"
"Li nationality...... Need help ......"
"Benefactor ......"
"Where are you ......?"
"Li ......"
Qi Daoyuan listened attentively for a while, and said in surprise: "It sounds like Hong Si, how did he come here, I'll go over and take a look." ”
After saying that, he rushed to the place where the sound came from, and Zhu Zhixiang and the others glanced at each other, and they also followed.
Not long after, Qi Daoyuan saw Hong Si, who was tired and panting.
Hong Siben was standing and resting with his waist pinched, and when he saw that the person he was looking for was coming, he finally couldn't support his tired body and sat down.
"Benefactor...... You...... But even if I came, I walked for a day, and I called for a day...... I'm dying of exhaustion. I don't know why, today...... The physical strength is exceptional, so you have to put it on hold...... I've been exhausted for a long time. ”
Qi Daoyuan sent a spiritual energy into the air for Hong Si, and while helping him quickly recover his strength, he said, "Hong Si, don't worry, speak slowly." ”
The aura entered the body, Hong Si only felt refreshed, and his wheezing gradually calmed down, he suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Benefactor, the Li people are in trouble, you have to save us!"
Qi Daoyuan raised his eyebrows, and secretly said in his heart, he was really afraid of something, it seems that the mastermind behind this scene is determined to let them enter the game!
