Chapter 131: Bird Riding Is Scary
Ask what women in the world love the most, I'm afraid that there are different opinions, from Ruyi Langjun to all kinds of cosmetics, there are seven or eight hundred answers. But if you ask what women in the world are most afraid of, the decision is to grow old and no longer be beautiful.
In this way, this curse of aging is probably the most vicious curse Eswell has on women. This curse originated from the mutilated forbidden spell of the Shadow Church, but it has evolved over the years of Dark Mages and Necromancers to become a full-fledged magical curse.
If the strength of the caster is higher than that of the caster, the curse will bounce back, causing the caster to suffer the consequences of the magic, and if the strength is lower than that of the caster, it will wither from head to toe in the next year, and finally turn into a mummy-like corpse.
Although Mitchell also has a good talent for magic, it is clear that her strength is far inferior to that of the black-robed mage. As a result, the Curse of Aging soon revealed its terrifying nature. Her hair turned completely white the next day!
"I also have a part in the matter, I must help my sister find the herb!" Nangong Xue clenched her little fists tightly.
"I've heard before that the antidote to the curse of aging requires Ice Spirit Silkworm Chrysalis and Bilian Grass as the main prescriptions, but their origins are not here, and those dozens of ingredients shouldn't be able to do it for you, right?" Kester wondered.
Nangong Xue said seriously: "Half a year ago, it was like this, after the Battle of the Heavenly Kingdom, many herbs produced by the Wing Clan have become extinct, so we have to search everywhere for the same. The Lida family doesn't want to make a name for themselves, so it's not very efficient. Everyone knows that curses like the Curse of Aging end as soon as possible, so of course I'm going to act as soon as possible. This time, we came to the rainforest to find one of the rare herbs called 'Bird's Vine' and a magic plant called 'Crying Fruit'. Our family has a relatively detailed record of the bird language vine, so it is not particularly difficult to find. ”
Hearing the "Battle of the Heavenly Kingdom", Kester's expression darkened, but Nangong Xue, who was talking energetically, didn't notice it, and she continued: "When I found the Bird Vine, there happened to be a nameless demon insect that was gnawing at the roots, and we drove the demon worm away, but the horned bear suddenly came out from the side, scared me to death." Speaking of this, Nangong Xue patted her breasts, which were not yet fully developed, obviously frightened.
"What's the matter, Ye Lingyun, you don't seem to be very happy..."The dwarf with the short stick was the first to notice the strangeness of Kester.
"It's fine." Kester shook his head, half a year later, he remembered the tragedy of Sky City again, and his heart still ached faintly. However, in the past six months, Kester's mental growth has not been a little bit, although he can't laugh at it, but he won't indulge in sadness again: "Then what are you going to do next?" ”
"Find the last herb 'Crying Fruit' again, and then go back to Locksell to bring the medicine to Sister Mitchell!" Nangong Xue was also slightly immature, and her face was full of determination.
"Mitchell, she's in Locksell?" Kester asked casually, "The headquarters of the Leda family shouldn't be here." ”
"My sister is practicing magic at the top of the dragon." Nangong Xue blinked her big eyes.
"Oh, that's what I thought." Kester smiled slightly awkwardly.
At this time, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the voice of the leader of the Amethyst Goose squad came: "Brother Ye, you have arrived in the city, let's come down and rest first." ”
"Well, good!"
**********
After dinner, the Sea Clan youth found the leader of the Amethyst Goose Squad.
"I know you have something to do now, but can you give us a chance to hire your group?" The young man of the Sea Clan took the lead in explaining his intention: "We are going back to the rainforest to find a medicinal herb, but now our people are a little seriously injured and urgently need help......
"I'm sorry." The team leader didn't give the other party a chance to finish: "Our trip has been delayed for a while, we need to hurry back to Locksell to report on our work, and we will not obey our fate." ”
"Why don't you hire the other mercenaries in the city?" Kester whispered.
The young man of the Sea Clan showed an embarrassed expression: "I'm just afraid that there will be a lot of people......" He didn't continue, but Kester's heart suddenly brightened: If there are more people hired, I'm afraid that Nangong Xue and his party will show their feet sooner or later. When the time comes, the curse in Mitchell, which is still a secret, will become a recognized secret of Acewell.
"Miss Xue, why don't we go back......" the young man of the Sea Clan said with an embarrassed face.
"No, I swear I'll find all the medicinal materials here and go back!" Although Nangong Xue is not very old, she is determined to persevere.
"Don't talk about going back to the rainforest like this, it's a question of whether you can return to Locksell safely without an escort!" Kester couldn't help but persuade.
"Hmm, is it really not good......" Nangong Xue lowered her head, and when she raised her face again, her eyes actually had tear stains: "Sister, she, is suffering from inhuman suffering all the time, but I, who is a sister, can only stand stupidly, woo, I don't want to ...... like this"
Nangong Xue actually cried on the spot, Kester looked at the team leader embarrassedly, but also saw the same embarrassing look in the other party's eyes.
"Otherwise, I'll go with them......" Kester sighed, "Captain, I have white feathers and silver wings, and I can catch up with you." ”
I don't know if it was because of his trust in Kester, or because Nangong Xue's crying played a role, the team leader nodded after a little entanglement: "It's okay, anyway, we have Lord Gray here, and Brother Ye doesn't have to worry." ”
"Really? Brother Lingyun, you are so good! Nangong Xue suddenly burst into tears and laughed.
The young man of the Sea Clan also breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that he would not be able to pull Nangong Xue, and in the end, the group all died in the rainforest. Although Kester alone is far inferior to the Amethyst Goose with Gray in charge, for Nangong Xue and his party, this is already a great help.
Anyway, there are no particularly powerful magical beasts in this rainforest, and the horned bear is already one of the first-class existences. According to the previous female mad giant, Kester killed a horned bear as if it were fun, and it must be enough to protect them.
If they stick to their original idea and hire some mercenaries without revealing the news, the safety of this is questionable, and if they are unlucky, they will be too late to cry.
"Then leave tomorrow morning, go back quickly, and I'll follow them to Locksell to report on work."
"Good!"
**********
Early the next morning, outside the nameless town.
The morning sun shines through the mist of the rainforest at the city gates, and the mist in the sun looks golden.
"Captain, I'll leave with them first, and if it's fast, I'll try to meet you before you get to Locksell." Kester clenched his fists.
"Okay, Brother Ye, take care!"
"Well, if Grandpa Gray asks, please tell me about it."
"No problem!"
"So, let's go!" Kester turned his head and said to Nangong Xue and the young man of the Sea Clan.
"Good! But...... How to go? ”
"Bai Yu, you carry him!" Kester pointed to the Sea Clan youth and shouted to White Feather.
"Woohoo!" Bai Yu glanced at Kester suspiciously.
Kester knocked Bai Yu's head: "No matter how heavy he is, he is lighter than the two of us combined, if you want to change it, Silver Wing will probably be happy." (The dwarves and giants have recovered from their wounds)
"Whew!" Bai Yu screamed sharply and rushed towards the young man of the Sea Clan.
"Uh, this, how do I take it?" The young people of the Sea Tribes were at a loss. As a sea clan, he has ridden dolphins, sharks, turtles, and all kinds of aquatic products, but the birds ...... I really haven't ridden it.
"It's okay, Bai Yu will cooperate with you, just sit on its back." Kester encouraged. Immediately, he turned his head to Nangong Xue and said, "Let's also get on the back of Silver Wing." ”
"Huh? How do I get on? Nangong Xue was favored by her family when she was a child, and her parents didn't even dare to let her get close to the horse, so how could she be exposed to such a dangerous thing as riding birds?
"It's very simple, I'll go first, you sit behind me and hold my waist."
"Uh...... Yes? Nangong Xue was a little overwhelmed, although she hated those messy lady tutorials, but after all, she was also a lady. If you think about it, our Miss Xue has grown up, uh, well, hasn't grown up yet, and she hasn't been in close contact with other men since she was a child.
"What's wrong? Come on! "If he had changed Kester before, he would have felt that something was wrong, but after the War of Heaven, the life of wandering everywhere made him completely let go of the complicated and useless etiquette constraints of the past.
"Isn't it just hugging your waist? I'm on! Nangong Xue cheered herself up in her heart and stepped on Yinyi's back: "And it's Brother Lingyun who is holding it anyway...... Ah, he won't have a good impression of me, so he ......" Thinking of this, Nangong Xue only felt that her heart suddenly fluttered and jumped wildly, and her little face turned red without anger. Fortunately, Kester was facing away from her and didn't see her expression.
In fact, the emotions in this world are simple things, Kester rescued Nangong Xue and his party when they were in a desperate situation, and it was easy to gain the favor of the other party. Nangong Xue is like this, what about the young man of the Sea Clan and the other two? If it were a normal time, even if they were given 10,000 guts, they would not dare to let Miss Xue ride a bird with a strange man.
"Oh my god!" Just when Nangong Xue was thinking about it, an exclamation came, startling a large number of birds and sparrows around, and they scattered in all directions, which made the already empty city gate even more empty.
It turned out that Bai Yu saw that the young man of the Sea Clan had not been able to sit still, so he became impatient. It jumped on the spot twice, turning the body of the Sea Clan youth upside down, but it scared the Sea Clan youth into a cold sweat.
"Whew, that's scary." Looking at the lark that flew overhead, the young man of the Sea Clan rarely burst into a foul mouth, and he secretly swore in his heart: "I will never ride a bird again, never again!" After returning to the Sea Clan, I must raise a turtle and ride it every day! ”
"So, let's go!"
"No, I'm not ready!" "Huh? Brother Lingyun, don't you let me get used to it first? ”
"Walk you!"
"Oh my god!" "OMG!"
For a while, the endless screams in the sky were so shocking that birds and beasts scattered everywhere they went.
