Chapter 245 The Ghost Castle Hidden in the Darkness
Section 653
After walking a short distance, he came to a hill and a corner, Tan Yi looked left and right for a long time, "This place, there should be a cave, let's take a look separately"
"No, I don't know if the danger is in the past now, so we can't be too scattered," Xue Zhenjie objected. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"......" I sat down on the root of the old tree, cheek resting and ready to watch the two of them debate.
"It's almost dark, we can't delay too long, I think you should know the situation over there" Tan Yi made no secret of his worries.
"It's true that their situation is not dangerous, but if something happens to us, they will only be more dangerous," Xue Zhenjie said without backing down.
"I'm just afraid that after a long delay, even if I find a place to stay, I ......" Tan Yi anxiously spun around in place.
"No, we have to believe in the people who stay" Although Xue Zhenjie was also anxious, his long-term experience in the shopping mall made him unusually calm in the face of the crisis.
"Huh? What about Yin Ning? Tan Yi finally found that there was one person missing, and anxiously twisted his neck to look carefully, "I found out that this guy is here to make trouble, and he is missing at this time?" ”
I sat in the blind spot of their sight, that is, at their feet, quietly watching them, and had already greeted Tan Yi's family in my heart.
"Is it useful to say this now? Don't look for it quickly, it's very dangerous here" Xue Zhenjie's anxiety surprised me secretly, this person actually belongs to the type with a poisonous mouth and a wilted heart.
Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, I reluctantly said, "Hey, it's not a good behavior to say bad things about people behind my back."
Tan Yi's back stiffened, slowly turned his head, and lowered his head, "You have always been here?" ”
I nodded noncommittally, "Well, I don't know when your debate will end, so save your energy, but I didn't expect to hear ......"
"Uh......" Tan Yi looked at Xue Zhenjie, who turned his head away.
"Have you decided?" I stood up and patted the dirt off my body "By the way, I want to correct a little, I'm not here to make trouble, because I found the foothold before you"
"What?" Tan Yi had forgotten the embarrassing topic just now, and asked in disbelief, "When?" ”
"Just now, when your debate was in full swing," I smiled, "do you want to go and see it now?" ”
"Hmm" Xue Zhenjie ignored the ridicule in his tone and nodded.
Should the "......" be so concise? I glanced at my anxious blue eyes and smiled silently, 'What is safer than its lair?' ’
The entrance of the cave is very small, only for one person to enter and exit, but the space inside is very large, dry and warm, I don't know if there are other exits, the air quality here is very good, and there is a faint smell of grass, and there is a thick weed inside, soft and comfortable.
"This place doesn't look like it's vacant," Tan Yi frowned.
"It's so comfortable, it must be a guy who knows how to enjoy it" Xue Zhenjie suddenly wanted to laugh, he unknowingly anthropomorphized the animal.
"There's an owner here?" Tan Yi stared nervously at the entrance of the cave, "Will it be dangerous?" ”
"No," I shook my head, "judging by the size of the hole, it won't be a very threatening animal, it's a big deal that when it comes back, we'll drive it out, and it's okay to stay overnight."
"......" Both of them were silent, and secretly said in their hearts: This is forcible occupation!
"Isn't there a hurry?" I beckoned the two of them at the entrance of the cave, and by the way, I looked into the depths of the bushes, and the blue eyes were full of anger and helplessness, and finally shook my head and left angrily.
As soon as I walked out of the hole, I slipped under my feet, "Oops! "It was so dark that I 'inadvertently' stepped on the edge of a rock and slipped to the side, injuring my foot.
"What's wrong?" Tan Yi went up to help me up and asked.
"It seems that I have reached my feet, and the way back is so far......" I looked at the road I came, and said in embarrassment.
"In this way, I will stay, Zhenjie, and I will trouble you......"
"No, no" I hurriedly waved my hand "This cave entrance is small, the cave is very safe, I can do it alone, there are wild beasts infested along the way, two people are safer"
The two of them thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to implement the plan: they camouflaged the entrance to the cave, and I kept it quiet inside until they returned.
Tan Yi said a few more words before leaving under the urging of Xue Zhenjie, listening to the footsteps of the two of them in the distance, I leisurely leaned against the cave wall, squinting my eyes, "Come in!" ”

A small figure, pacing in slowly, blue eyes blinked, "You obviously saw my doppelganger gone, how could you still find me?" ”
"You're staying just to ask about this?" I leaned against the wall of the cave and looked at it with a funny expression, "Let us occupy your cave?" ”
"I can't beat you," the little guy was far-sighted and not ready to resist.
"Oh? Was it really you who was at the lake that day? I looked at it with a smirk.
"Why ask so many times?" The little guy was a little impatient "The lake is mine, you are not allowed to seal it" It has worked hard for so long, the delicious lake has been occupied by that idiot, it is already depressed enough, this out of thin air and a few more Cheng Jin, recklessly sealed the delicious lake, so how can it sit still?
"If I'm right, our people should all be circled, right?" I pretended to rub my ankle.
"For the time being, we will only besiege and not attack," a ripple rippled in the depths of the little guy's azure eyes, "How about it, how about we make a deal?" ”
"Say!" I smiled faintly.
"I'll let them go safely, and you break the seal," the little guy said a little swaggeringly.
"......" I looked at it in embarrassment, "you know, it's... Impossible"
"Okay, how about using the lives of the two people who just left, to buy a lesson?" A hint of cruelty flashed in the little guy's eyes.
"That's not good, the problem is the two of us, it's too much to implicate others, right?" I laughed and teased its jaw, sealing off the cave by the way.
"It's useless for you to do this, my connection with them is not by spiritual power, but by the traction of the heart, I am their king!" The little one smiled disdainfully.
"But I underestimated you, what do you call it?" My eyes sank, and I asked quietly.
The little guy "Bai Qiong" raised his neck, obviously waiting for appreciation.
"Xiaobai!"
...... "Bai Qiong will never fall!" Bai Qiong, my name is Bai Qiong, Bai Qiong, what a little white! ”
"Affectionate, don't you think so, okay?" I smiled and touched its head, looking doting.
Bai Qiong was angry, and as soon as she turned around, she immediately returned to the size of a house, almost filling the entire cave, and her huge head lowered her sky-blue eyes, looking at me quietly, "Small?" ”
"Well, no one told you that the name has nothing to do with the size of the body? Xiaobai! I smiled and nodded at its huge nose, stretched out its legs, and said, "Enough of the majesty, let's get down to business, okay?" I think Lan Linfeng's endurance is almost at the limit, and I don't want your subordinates to lose their lives in vain, so we might as well try to sit down and talk."
Bai Qiong's nose spewed out a scorching gas, with a faint scent of grass, and then Bai Qiong's body curled up, and she returned to the size of a domestic cat, "What are you talking about?" Don't forget, you still have two lonely humans."
"You know, I don't care about that, just a few human lives can't influence my decision" I looked at it fixedly, waiting for it to consider.
After a long time, Bai Qiong sighed dejectedly, "What do you want to talk about?" This time, its tone was a bit compromised.
"Why do you want that lake?" I asked knowingly.
"Because it's full of delicious flavors, and it has undoubtedly helped me," Bai Qiong sat on the ground, looking at me in pairs.
"It doesn't belong to the human world, so we sealed it, and you ......" At this point, I stopped.
"Aren't you going to keep me either?" Bai Qiong's voice did not have a trace of surprise, it seemed to have expected this result a long time ago.
"No, I think... We can make a deal," I said, half-squinting.
"Deal? I don't think it's a good proposition, because your face looks like a fox more than I am! Bai Qiong looked at me cautiously.
"......" I rubbed my cheek and yawned "sorry, I can't keep my eyes open"
Bai Qiong "......"
Section 655
"Let's just say it, what deal?" It was the one who had just proposed the deal, and now it was completely reversed.
"I want to... Please, be my pet! I smiled harmlessly, not caring what kind of face I had under the white hair.
Bai Qiong "......"
"I promise, by my side, there are much more benefits than by the broken lake, what? Thinking about it? I tilted my head and smiled and said.
Bai Qiong raised her furry head, and her sky-blue eyes showed a thoughtful look, "Why do I think that you look like a liar waiting for an idiot to fall into the pit?" ”
"In a way, yes!" I don't bother to hide it, anyway, every word is true, but this kind of benefit also needs to be exchanged at an equivalent price.
"What do you need me to do?" Bai Qiong is also not a fuel-efficient lamp.
I thought about it for a moment and smiled slightly, "It's not a big deal, my family needs a caretaker, I need a decent pet, you need a place to stay, everyone takes what they need"
The corners of Bai Qiong's mouth twitched imperceptibly, "Pets? The fur on its face shook slightly, "You... Want me to be your pet? ”
"It's an external reason, don't pay too much attention to the title, you just need to know that I am a friend of you, and it will be," I reassured.
"Can I refuse?" Bai Qiong took a step back quietly.
"What do you say?" I tied up my long hair at the back of my head, my eyes gradually faded to black, and my pupils were immediately dyed a silvery white, and the invisible pressure made Bai Qiong have to crawl on the ground, hanging its always proud head, almost pressed into the ground, this kind of pressure, it has never tasted.
"You... There's no choice left for me! Bai Qiong's heart was scared to death, but her mouth was stiff to fight for the last glimmer of hope for herself.
"That's what you can't understand, I'm just asking for your own opinion" I smiled, and my spiritual power surged out, immediately suppressing Bai Qiong's reluctant head.
Bai Qiong used all the swear words that could be used in her heart, word for word, and said unhappily, "Ask my opinion, do you have the attitude of asking?" Or do you think I'm funny like that? ”
"I've just suppressed them for too long, let them out to play" I tapped the mountain wall and looked at it lightly, "Since you were discovered by Lan Linfeng, there is no place for you here, do you have a better place to go?" Maybe... Do you have a way to get them to give up on obliterating you? What is off the trajectory is destined to be erased"
"I know, there are many of my kind, and I have joined them, and I can ...... too" Bai Qiong lay on the ground, her eyes full of dissatisfaction.
"But... They all have imprints, and you are an outlier, it is the lake that has made you, without the constraints of the imprint, he will not accept you" I thought of the elder's wrinkled face, and my heart was blocked for a while, that everything follows the trajectory of fate, everything requires a board at a glance, and everything must not be taken off the line of the rigid look, and the heart is a burst of powerlessness, the power of fate, really can't be shaken? Being a marionette is always not what I want, perhaps...... I can try to break this unwritten rule.
Bai Qiong was silent, it had thought about these words a long time ago, if it weren't for this, it wouldn't have dragged on until now, it was just nesting in this small place, fighting for that little bit of spiritual energy, and it might be ......
"Just looking after the home?" Bai Qiong asked in disbelief, "There are no other requirements"
I tilted my head to look at the figure still lying on the ground, "I don't think, you have any other use"
Bai Qiong "......"
"Oh yes, let them come, it's getting late" I squinted "I'm hungry"
Bai Qiong found that she could move, and after it could move, the first thing she did was to be silent "......"
"By the way, and the rabbit, bring it back with you."
Bai Qiong continues to "......"
