Chapter 332: Interaction in Exploration
Walking in the dense forest by the lake, after a short time, I came to a stream.
The boy put me down, and I glanced ahead in a daze, and asked him, "How far is this from where we just stayed?" ”
When I came out of the mountain temple, my mind was on walking, and I was really depressed to know the road conditions in the dense forest, and the heavy rain that had fallen at night.
So, how far we've come so far, I've ignored.
"Xiaoling, it's not too far, but the road here is more difficult to walk, and I think it's been a little longer."
The boy thought for a moment and gave me a brief answer.
Watching the people around him walk under the tree to the side to investigate, the young man lowered his head, and his long eyelashes flashed under the hood, hiding his expression.
It's muddy on a rainy day, and the dense forest is silent, but I always feel that even if I walk like this, I have an indescribable taste in my heart, and it is really difficult to describe the subtle feeling.
The boy quietly wondered when he had been, and the skinny guy next to him seemed to be gradually becoming like a friend he had known for many years.
From the moment the boat jumped up the cliff, the few days in the mountains were more than a normal year.
The days of wealth and comfort in South Zealand are much more prosaic in comparison!
However, I had no idea what that guy was going to do at the moment, and in my eyes he was just silent again!
I felt a sulk in my heart, and I actually wanted to complain to him.
Big brother, you also know that wow, the road is difficult to walk - you say it lightly. That's a great idea!
On second thought, I also wanted to follow along to take a look, but the difficulty of the road was beyond my expectations. It just makes me feel bad, and I can't put all the blame on the teenager.
I suppressed the depression in my heart and walked around him.
When we saw the stream in front of us, it seemed to be the same waterfall we saw in the deep mountains, with a large drop in the waterfall.
"Is the water flowing out of the lake?" I asked the teenager.
After a moment of silence, he nodded and whispered, "That's right, but I'll look ahead." There should be a bigger waterfall, or "
At this point, the boy suddenly paused. He looked at me and said, "Xiaoling, I'll take you to see it." ”
This guy still refuses to say it, I was speechless for a while, looked at him and said in my heart Since I don't want to say it, don't ask. I settled down before answering, "Good! ”
The boy heard my answer. This time, as he had done at the beginning, he grabbed my arm and walked forward.
But his pace was much slower, and it no longer made me feel as awkward as dragging luggage by him so much.
I feel like he's still paying attention to my unpleasant emotions before, and he may be taking care of me now.
The boy led me a short distance, and suddenly grabbed me and jumped up.
I was taken aback by his actions, and as soon as I landed, I asked him, "What's wrong?" ”
The boy didn't answer. I turned around and found a stone from the side, and threw it with a few points of force at the place we had just passed.
Suddenly. A deep pit appeared in the ground.
It turned out that the top was covered with floating soil and fallen leaves, which meant that the bottom was a trap dug by Orion.
Traps to catch beasts! "Wow, that's dangerous! It's dangerous! “
I patted myself a little scared, took a deep breath and said to him, "Hey, you really can, fortunately you reacted quickly, otherwise the two of us would have been treated as prey." "In such a remote place, maybe those hunters will come to check it out for days," I said with a cool back, "and if you fall, you will either starve to death or starve to death." “
"It's too dangerous!!"
Hearing this, the young man glanced at me lightly, patted me on the shoulder, and laughed in a low voice, "Surprised." "I was scared just now, who told you to catch me without warning me that it was a trap," I said, "all of a sudden, everyone is afraid." "Okay, it's my fault, I'll tell you next time." The young man's face changed, and then he coughed and replied in a gentle tone.
I can't react a little, how can the eldest young master become more and more talkative recently, is this guy having convulsions again? "Okay, you've all walked here, you've seen it, and there are still a lot of traps ahead."
I pondered for a moment, and my eyes swept over the dense forest in front of me, there was no road at all, just through the forest, and the bottom was full of fallen leaves and weeds.
There must be very few people in this area, so the mountain people will set traps.
If there was a road, they would avoid it and set it up in the corner.
I have to say that the boy is very agile and has good skills, I know that the residual poison in his body is still there, but his own skill is extremely high, so he is temporarily suppressed, and his actions are not affected.
However, there are many traps set by Orion in the mountains, and he may not be able to avoid them accurately.
Even if he could, it would be physically exhausting to do this, and I really don't think I should put my energy on it. "Where are you going?" I glanced at the boy and said, "Maybe the last group of people who stopped at the mountain temple also happened to be passing by, and the problem you said doesn't exist at all?" “
I was a little skeptical in my heart, and I always felt that there might be something wrong with those people.
But taking a step back, how much does it have to do with me, with the teenager, and with the two people who pass by by chance?
Like a teenager, I have curiosity, but it doesn't mean that I have to sacrifice safety for my curiosity, and that's not worth it!
On second thought, I think it's better to be cautious.
Isn't there a saying before the crossing, if you don't do it, you won't do anything, sometimes the trouble is self-inflicted!
I thought about it in my heart, looked at the young man and said, "Let's go back!" “
With that, I reached out and tugged at his sleeve.
The young man's body stiffened, and he looked down at my hand for a few seconds, and then said in an affirmative tone: "Xiaoling, go a little further!" ”
The boy was afraid that I would retreat. Not only grabbed me with his backhand, but also added: "Xiaoling, if you can't walk." Or come up, I'll carry you. ”
Hey, forget it, he's so insistent!
I didn't come to Suzhou, I was a companion with him, and I didn't want to go my own way.
"You don't have to carry it, I promise you." I sighed, my eyes darkened, and said, "But I have a word first." You can't just go on and on, just go a little further, and go back if you find nothing. "We're done." "It's decided, Xiaoling."
I breathed a sigh of relief. I had no intention of following him until dawn.
Besides, the coachman is still lying in the mountain temple. Before leaving, the boy tried to put him to sleep.
It's okay to say at night, but when it gets dawn, if other people pass by and stay at the mountain temple, will there be any extraneous branches?
I don't know the bottom of my heart.
Fortunately, the boy is still reasonable, and his kind words have finalized the rules, since this is the case, it is easy to accompany him to explore the road again!
The discussion is over. I walked forward one step faster than the boy, and I didn't take two steps before he grabbed me back: "Xiaoling." Whoever told you to go ahead, follow me. “
The boy's tone was heavy, and he couldn't help but break up and grabbed my arm.
Okay, okay, I have to listen to him, don't get into trouble with him, so as not to hurt the harmony of his companion, lest he cancel the agreement they had agreed.
I glanced sideways at the boy and muttered in a barely audible voice, "It's stubborn." “
Before he could hear it, the boy stopped and looked at me, a scrutinizing gaze, as if to say, "Do you have any grievances?" "Okay, okay, listen to you, I won't say anything."
I hurriedly lowered my head and complained in my heart, for fear that if I was not careful, the Tang Seng mode would be turned on again.
This guy doesn't even have a little warning every time he opens it, and he can't stand it anymore because he has seen so many battles like me!
I'm more and more curious about how the people under him, the unlucky guy in Suzhou City now, put up with this eldest young master.
Probably not, it's a person with bad ears!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help myself, and laughed!
The boy stopped again, looking at me with his usual inquiring gaze.
After a while, he reached out and knocked on the door of my head and said, "Xiaoling, you kid is weird, you don't know what you've been thinking all day?!" "Talk as you talk, do whatever you do!" I yelled at him. "Look at you, like a hedgehog, fried!" The boy dropped his sentence, took a few steps, turned around and dragged me over, returning to drag my luggage mode.
It's so noisy, and it's been a long way.
The sight suddenly opened up, and I actually walked to a cliff.
I watched the waterfall of the lake cascade down the cliff, and as I took a few steps closer, I was suddenly stunned.
I stared at it in disbelief without saying a word for a while, and after a while, I walked to the edge of the cliff and was even more stunned when I saw the situation below!
The young man was by my side, and he watched quietly with me for a while, and suddenly said, "Xiaoling, this is the reason to come to check, I think it's the right one!" “
In the house in the east of Suzhou City, the guards sent one of them to the next door to set it up.
The movement next door has always been not small, and today it seems that the place that sells calligraphy and paintings in the city has come to deliver the goods, and the things pulled by horse-drawn carts have been moved in.
There was more than one car, and there were also people who came to deliver ingredients, and strangely, it was actually the car of a very large restaurant in the city.
Because there's a mark on it.
The food is sent, not the food.
It's hard for those who don't know to figure it out, but those who know will understand.
The largest restaurant in the city, there are special managers for purchasing, covering the surrounding neighboring towns, and the freshest and best raw materials can be obtained with one hand.
And the best ingredients they can get are for the guests in the private room.
Therefore, if you borrow what you can buy, you can naturally pick out the best among them, and it will save a lot of time and effort.
When he returned, the guard knocked on his head as if he had a headache.
Is this stimulated by the gods?
In the blink of an eye, he entered the door, and several guards who had remained in the courtyard and waited immediately gathered around.
Everyone can do these things to ask them to fight, spy on intelligence, and interrogate prisoners, but to decorate the house, and to prepare for a girl, they have no idea at all.
Many of them, even if they have seen women, to be honest, they are also from Hualou, and many times they go for official business.
Receiving this task is even more difficult than issuing an assassination order for them to carry out!
Seeing the escort who inquired about the news come back at this moment is like seeing a savior.
A few people sat in the gazebo, listening carefully to the report of the guy who had returned.
Listening to this, the eldest of the guards whispered: "Who is the person living next door, look at the use of this person, it can be compared with our lord." "Is there still such a character in Suzhou City?" The guards were stunned, and everyone was confused. "Has the young master of that family arrived? Have you ever seen it? The guards turned their heads to stare at the one who had gone to find out. No, I heard that it was supposed to arrive a long time ago, but there was a delay on the way, so it had to be delayed for a few days," the guard who heard the news paused and then continued with a not very good face, "Everyone below is very happy. ”
As soon as these words came out, several guards were stunned, and the expressions on their faces were inexplicable.
Anyway, the people next door don't like to see their master so much?!
It seems that the master who is still on the road is of very poor character!
"They said that they could prepare well for the grace time, for fear that in a hurry, the young master would not be satisfied." "You didn't see it," said the guard who went to inquire with an exaggerated expression, "the furnishings in the house are all picked anyway." ”
"I heard that even the water to drink has to be transported from a designated spring on the mountain outside Suzhou City." "I also arranged for a small man to deliver water." The guard in charge of the investigation added. "Don't do anything else, just deliver water, not only for tea, but also for cooking." "You said that spring on the mountain?" "That's right!"
The guards secretly said that it was all water, and it was understandable to make tea, but how much difference can it make when cooking?!
After hearing the words, the guards looked at each other.
The youngest of them couldn't help but speak, "Why do I think that young master is more particular than our master!" "That's a long insight!" Several people sighed in unison.
Although I didn't see the legendary young master, the listeners gave him a definition in their hearts, and it was not a good definition - too luxurious!
At this time, they didn't expect the intersection between the eldest young master who had delayed his arrival and their lives from now on.
I couldn't imagine that the person who was taken away by the eldest young master was the one who their lord was waiting for the arrival in his heart - the little junior sister!
The sound of discussion outside reached the ears of Tianfang, who was close and recuperated in the study.
He frowned and said to himself, "It's like this, it's like"
The chatter outside continued, and the guards said that this trip was the right one!
No matter who the young master next door is, at least he has opened his eyes, and in a small place like Suzhou, he has seen Jin Guiren! (To be continued......)
