Chapter 4: The Man in the Forest
Bai Xingzhi raised his chin and signaled her to be restless: "The future has its own certainty, and there is no way to avoid it, besides, I must go this way." ”
Bai Cisheng didn't dare to refute anymore, so he had to whisper to Cheng Weixi: "You, it's best to stay away from Snake Lake, if you don't get close, there will be no danger." ”
Cheng Weixi was happy: "According to what you say, I should find a hole to hide in the safest." Okay, don't worry about me, I don't know how many dangers I will encounter along the way, even if I stay in Chouhua Mountain, it may not be safe. I'm afraid of this and that, I'd better not live. ”
Bai Cisheng was dumbfounded: "I know why the art of divination requires a state of mind." His eyes looked at Bai Suan with pity.
Bai Suan, but he holds his head high, his waist straight, and he has a posture of "I can bear it, I can calculate my pride".
Elder Qingwu couldn't help but praise Bai Suan: "Yes, the mentality is adjusted so quickly, and he can do it at such a young age, he is a malleable talent." ”
Bai Xingzhi also praised: "Yes, this time I will send you to Senior Brother Qianzhou to apprentice." ”
was appreciated by the two seniors, and there was joy in Bai Shu's eyes, but he held it on his face, trying not to be pampered.
Elder Qingwu frowned: "Zheng Qianzhou, isn't he ......?"
Bai Xingzhi's face was expressionless: "Yes, he is in a hurry to find a good apprentice, so I took the initiative to send one to the door, with the talent of vain calculation, it is cheap for him." ”
Elder Qingwu's brows jumped, and the beating old heart in his chest was somewhat relieved.
Bai Xingzhi has always been upright, and only when talking about Zheng Qianzhou, who has been friends for thousands of years, will there be this kind of narrow-minded and ridiculous tone.
Elder Qingwu said: "Our Huashan has always had a talent for divination, and it is also his creation to have this opportunity. Following Zheng Qianzhou, when I return from my studies in the future, I will be able to contribute to our great cause. ”
Bai Suansuan walked silently, but his ears were pricked up to listen to the conversation between the two, and the more he listened, the straighter his waist straightened, and the more serious the expression on his face became.
But this kind of uprightness didn't last more than half a second, and the gurgling sound in the stomach made everything ruined.
When the half-grown child was growing up, he went down the mountain, waited for a while, and walked forward for a while, and digested the few bowls of vegetarian porridge he ate in the morning.
Bai Suansuan hung his head, his face was flushed, and he was ashamed and embarrassed.
Elder Qingwu stroked his messy beard and laughed: "Yo, your stomach is empty, Cheng girl, are you hungry too?"
Cheng Weixi looked at the sun overhead, it was almost noon. Get up early in the morning to catch a late meeting, talking about how she feels now, she will get up before dawn tomorrow, and it is already noon when she procrastination has just walked out, no wonder she also feels empty in her stomach.
Speaking of which, among the group, only Cheng Weixi and Bai Shuan were dragging oil bottles, they needed to eat, but they couldn't resist the damage of moving quickly, which not only slowed down everyone's pace, but also had to stop from time to time to pay tribute to the Five Organs Temple.
Cheng Weixi didn't expect any restaurants on the road, so he automatically and spontaneously took out small bread, ham sausages and other things from the Qiankun ring.
I don't know if my inventory is enough to consume along the way.
Bai Cisheng stopped her movements and smiled quite proudly: "I, I have long guessed that there will be a shortage of food along the way, so in the past five days, I have prepared a lot of food. ”
As she spoke, a large plate of cut sauce and meat appeared in her left hand, and a plate of emerald green vegetables appeared in her right hand, all of which were placed in Cheng Weixi's hand, and then a large pot of soup was brought out, all of which were hot and freshly cooked, and the aroma was fragrant.
Cheng Weixi was extremely impressed: "You can't always put the cook in the void realm, right?"
Bai Cisheng shook his head: "How come?" When I asked Bai to make the Ice Talisman in the past, I also asked him to make a bunch of Time Talismans, as the name suggests, the Time Talisman can freeze time, save dishes and the like. ”
Bai Xinian's temples jumped. The most common use of the condensing talisman on weekdays is mostly when refining magic weapons or pills, which are used to preserve some rare medicinal materials that are easy to denature, but now they are used by Bai Cisheng to preserve dishes, which is really embarrassing.
Cheng Weixi was very curious about how much food Bai Cisheng had brought.
Bai Cisheng fiddled with his fingers: "I've calculated, it will take about fifteen days to walk west from our Chouhua Mountain to reach the village that can supply food, so I have enough dishes to eat for half a month." However, I didn't expect that we would go to Wuqianye first, which is about ten days away from Chouhua Mountain, so ah, you can eat every meal, no problem. ”
Cheng Weixi hurriedly put away his inventory and looked around for a place to have a picnic.
Not far away there was a large wood, as far as the eye could see, and just at the entrance of the forest there was a stout tree, casting a huge shadow, and under the tree there was a flat boulder, just enough to be used as a table.
A few people walked under the tree, Cheng Weixi and Bai Susuan were sitting and eating, and the others were standing and watching.
On the contrary, the treatment of the oil bottle has become the highest.
Cheng Weixi gulped down the meat, looked sideways into the forest, and coincidentally saw that fifty meters away, several figures were hiding behind trees to watch them, looking greedy, staring directly at the piece of meat in her hand.
Catching up with Cheng Weixi's gaze, several people ran quickly towards the depths of the forest like frightened beasts.
Jiang Huaiyin, who had been a transparent person all morning, leaned over silently and suddenly blocked Cheng Weixi's sight.
Cheng Weixi didn't raise his head: "A good dog doesn't get in the way!"
Jiang Huaiyin looked down at the top of Cheng Weixi's head and whispered, "Don't look, they are all wearing clothes!"
And what's going on?
Cheng Weixi had been sitting, and there was dense grass in the forest, and from her point of view, she really didn't see whether those people were running naked.
She reached out and pushed Jiang Huaiyin's leg and leaned out to look.
Where is there a figure in the woods?
She complained dissatisfiedly: "Who wants you to be troublesome!"
Jiang Huaiyin didn't refute, and moved his body slightly, but he didn't leave too far. sighed in my heart: Now is not the time to sell miserably, only the dead skin is on the face, so as not to respond to all changes.
Cheng Weixi looked at Bai Xingzhi: "Those people really don't have any clothes? Could it be that there are wild people in this forest? Are they attracted by the smell of meat?"
Bai Xingzhi narrowed his eyes: "Some divine beasts with poor talent are not allowed by the family, so they will leave and survive in sparsely populated places. ”
Cheng Weixi remembered that those who were thrown out since childhood naturally had nowhere to learn the habit of dressing.
She pursed her lips and did not comment on this law of natural selection and survival of the fittest.
Putting the last piece of meat in his mouth, Cheng Weixi wiped his mouth casually and stood up. A few people organized the team and walked into this endless forest.
The forest is overgrown with weeds, and it is quite uninhabited.
The trees in the forest are somewhat pine-like, but the leaves are wider than the pine needles and are flattened. These leaves do not block sunlight and do not form standing water, so the forest is not humid and it is easy to walk.
Bai Cisheng jumped up and down along the way, sometimes found flying squirrels on the trunks of trees, and sometimes found fungi in the grass, and kept making noise.
From time to time, Elder Qingwu dug up a strange-shaped plant with a bright eye, chattering about the medicinal value of roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits. There is this old and young, and the group seems to have come out for a hike.
