Chapter 132: Searching for the Weeping Fruit
Every young girl has ever imagined the most romantic thing. It has been said that there is nothing more romantic than leaning on a solid shoulder, flying with him, letting the gentle wind blow on his face, and letting his supple hair gently disturb his throbbing heart.
Once, Nangong Xue longed for this, but with this experience, she could completely guess - the idiot who said this definitely didn't have the experience of sharing a bird with people!
It's just a flight of incense time, and our poor Miss Xue is powerless to complain. As soon as she opened her mouth, the "gentle wind" would pour madly into her mouth. Nangong Xue was sure that if she had kept her mouth open while riding the bird, it wouldn't be long before her cute cherry mouth would turn into a bloody mouthβpropped up by the wind.
As for hair, Ethwell's Humans, Elves, and Blood and Wing males generally have long hair, and Kester was originally the same. However, in the mercenary career, too long hair can easily cause exposure or mobility difficulties, so a long time ago, Kester was ruthless and cut most of the long black hair that was about to reach the waist, leaving only a barely shoulder-length length.
Nangong Xue was glad in her heart that Kester's hair was not long, in fact, even if it was not long, it tickled her face. At this moment, it is not an exaggeration to describe Kester's hair as "maggot with bones", no matter what direction Nangong Xue hid, the disturbing hair could touch her slightly immature little face.
In contrast, the Sea Clan youth was much luckier, at least he didn't have a clump of hair in front of him that wanted to get into his nose all the time, but there was another trick here......
"Oh mom, slow down, I can't sit still!" The young man of the Sea Clan didn't have Kester's waist to fix his body, so he had to hug Bai Yu's neck: "Oh, don't fall down like this, I'm going to be scared to death sooner or later." β
"You can't scream so much...... Kester pursed his lips and glanced at the young man of the Sea Clan: "I won't really fall down, I'll get used to it after sitting for a long time." β
"Brother Ye, Brother Ye, Brother Ye, Uncle Ye, you better let me go." The young man of the Sea Clan said in an almost pleading tone: "I can't get used to such an exciting thing for a long time, and it will also cause a chronic disease - heart disease!" β
"Ah...... Ahh Nangong Xue finally couldn't help but let out a big sneeze, she hugged Kester's waist tightly while saying, "Yes, Brother Lingyun, this wind is really scary, let's go down." As she spoke, another big breath of wind poured into her mouth, not to mention how uncomfortable it felt.
"Hey, okay!" Seeing that he was also above the rainforest, Kester whistled and sent the White Feather Silver Wings to land. Although they are far from the middle of the rainforest, looking at this posture, I am afraid that Nangong Xue and the others will not be able to hold it there.
"Wow, ahhhh White Feather and Silver Wing swooped down towards the ground, which completely scared the Sea Clan youth stupid. The wind continued to pour into the mouth of the sea clan youth, and he exclaimed loudly, hugging Bai Yu's neck tightly.
Nangong Xue was pale, she hugged Kester's waist tightly and pressed her face against Kester's back.
With a "thud", the young man of the Sea Clan only felt that the white feather body under him was stunned, and a huge rebound force came from his hips, squeezing the gas in his lungs out, and making an "ah" sound.
"Alright, landing!" Kester looked at the furry hare that had been startled by the Sea Clan youth, and yawned for a long time.
As soon as he heard the word "landing", the young man of the Sea Clan instantly opened his eyes, and he didn't wait for Bai Yu to stand firm, so he jumped down in a hurry: "Huh, the sea god blesses, I'm still alive, the feeling of landing is really beautiful!" Oh no, God the Father is above, and for the first time I feel that the land is more intimate than the sea! β
"Hey, can you not hold so tightly?" Kester patted Nangong Xue's pale little hand: "We have landed." β
"Woo, I know, but I'm still so scared......" Nangong Xue muttered, and instead of letting go of her hands, she hugged her tighter.
"Aren't you looking for the Weeping Fruit?" Kester reluctantly reminded, "We need to move quickly." β
"Ah, yes!" Nangong Xue seemed to return to her soul in an instant: "It's important to save my sister." With that, she let go of Kester and jumped to the ground.
The three of them were now on a relatively empty flat land not far from a small river, and Kester roughly recognized the direction, and then said, "I have seen a small number of records about the Weeping Fruit in books, and I also know roughly what is special about this magic plant. β
Kester paused: "The Crying Fruit is not comparable to herbs like the Bird's Vine, it makes a special sound when it feels threatened, which is similar to the cry of a child, so we call it the 'Crying Fruit'." The cry of the weeping fruit has a certain spiritual deterrent effect, which can interfere with the magician's chanting spell and cause a magic backlash, so Nangong Xue, you have to be careful. β
Nangong Xue obediently said "um", and then she lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
Kester continued, "There are indications that the cry of the Weeping Fruit can also interfere with the casting of divine magic, but none of you have practiced divine magic, so this can be ignored. But there's a big problem: its cry is able to attract the approach of the monster. The exact reason for this is unknown, but the longer you stay in the same place, the stronger the Crying Fruit may attract. If it cried for a stick of incense, it might even attract a ninth-order demonic beast! Although I haven't encountered a high-level magical beast in the rainforest, I can't guarantee that it won't come out of any corner. β
"And there's such a thing!" The young man of the Sea Clan was shocked: "What if we let it cry and attract the holy beast?" β
"That's impossible." Kester smiled: "I estimate that the Ninth Order Peak Demonic Beast is already the limit of the Weeping Fruit. After all, there is only a seventh-order demon plant, and no matter how powerful it is, it is impossible to affect the behavior of the holy beast. β
"It's okay, we've got storage gear." Nangong Xue raised her head suddenly, she flashed the bracelet on her wrist a little proudly, with a look of expectant praise on her face.
"Miss Snow's bracelet is indeed a good storage gear." The Sea Clan youth nodded. At this moment, he couldn't afford to stop Nangong Xue from penetrating the bottom, and he hugged him anyway (Kester: uh...... How can I have! If everything today is known to the Viscount, the matter of the bracelet will not be revealed, and the ending of the young people of the Sea Clan will be the same tragedy.
"A little blow to you, the Weeping Fruit can't be put in storage gear, it's alive." Kester reminded, "Unlike the previous herb bird vine, the magic plant cannot be put into storage equipment except for dormant seeds. "Storage equipment does not accept living animals, this is the common knowledge that everyone in Acewell has known for 10,000 years.
"Then we'll wrap it in a wrap......" the Sea Clan youth proposed.
"At most, this can only isolate mental interference, and it can't affect the attraction of high-level demonic beasts." Kester shook his head: "Otherwise, the Weeping Fruit would not be listed as a seventh-order demon plant, you know, even if the man-eating flower is an extremely aggressive and highly damaging demon plant, it is only a fifth-order." β
"So what do we do?" Nangong Xue showed a worried look.
"Run with it, of course! As long as we get the Weeping Fruit and leave as soon as we get it, there should be no danger. β
"Huh? I'm going to fly away! Nangong Xue's pretty face wrinkled into a bitter melon.
"You know what? Before I became a mercenary, a senior told me a truth. Kester said lightly.
"Huh? What the? Nangong Xue showed a curious look.
Kester's eyes showed a look of remembrance: "He told me: 'If a mercenary is about to be eaten by a monster, he will still be addicted to drugs; When you are dying of thirst, you don't care about the taste of water; If he starves to death and cares about the hygiene of food, then he will still die. ββ
Hearing this, the Sea Clan youth's eyes when he looked at Kester suddenly became different, while Nangong Xue lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
Kester smiled slightly: "This principle is just right here, after all, living safely is more important than anything else!" β
"Brother Ye, can I call you that?" The Sea Clan youth took a deep breath: "Thank you for teaching me such a lesson!" β
Keiget nodded, didn't say anything, just turned his head to look at Nangong Xue.
One second, two seconds, Nangong Xue suddenly raised her head, and countless little stars seemed to burst out in her eyes: "Wow, Brother Lingyun, you were so handsome when you said that just now!" β
Kester: "Uh......"
There was already too much gossip, and Kester wanted to use Bai Yu and Silver Wing's vision advantage to search in a large area, but Nangong Xue stopped him. She took out a small alchemy device from the storage bracelet, only to see Nangong Xue stretch out her snow-white fingers, gently press it on the equipment a few times, and then lay it flat on the ground. After a while, the alchemy equipment screamed a few times, and a pointer with a number popped out in the direction of the river.
"This is a medicinal herb sensor, and the cost is not cheap." Nangong Xue carefully took back the alchemy equipment and put it back into the storage bracelet: "We can find the Bird Whispering Vine, and a lot of it is due to it!" β
Kester nodded silently, who is Nangong Xue? One of the richest families in the continent, a member of the Nangong family of the Southern Chamber of Commerce! Although her identity is not as good as that of a family heir like Nangong Ying, it is absolutely impossible to be short of money. It can make her feel that it is expensive, and the price of this medicinal material sensor is definitely worthy of its anti-heaven function of remote sensing medicinal materials!
"Let's go, then!" Kester took the lead in the direction of the river: "White feather and silver wings, explore the way in the air!" β
"Woohoo!"
Nangong Xue and the young man of the Sea Clan immediately followed Kester's footsteps, and according to the instructions of the medicinal herb sensor, the approximate location of the Weeping Fruit was about three kilometers ahead.
