Chapter 307: The Southern Forest (Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation)
The dark night was like a huge curtain, covering the originally blue sky. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking down at these towering trees, the sky is wider than during the day.
Perhaps it's because of its deep and invisible darkness that it gives rise to this strange sense of illusion.
The night was silent, except for a faint "crackling" sound that seemed to echo through the forest like a slight crackling sound.
Other than that, the rest seemed to fall into a deep sleep, following the invisible rhythm of the night's breathing, into the illusory dreamland.
The campfire burned silently, and the light of the fire was already a little dim.
Bai Ye took a twig and casually turned the bonfire that seemed to be about to burn out, and added a little firewood to it, keeping it in a state that seemed to be extinguished, but would not be extinguished.
Turning his head and looking at the petite figure lying on the side who was sleeping soundly, Bai Ye couldn't help but smile faintly.
The continuous rush in the past few days must have exhausted her......
Even though they only use some animal skins as mats to spread on the ground, and put their coats on their bodies as items to protect them from the cold.
Under such humble conditions, Nina still fell asleep very comfortably and comfortably.
In Bai Ye's opinion, this may be caused by mental fatigue from traveling for several days in a row.
It's just that, in fact, for Nina, who has been sleeping like this all these nights, this is already the best "bed" she has slept in since she remembered her mother's death.
Therefore, when surrounded by a small sense of pleasure and happiness, it is natural that even in such an environment that the white night thinks is rough, you can sleep soundly.
It's been three days since I first came here and took Nina away from the village.
According to the information obtained from the head of the village where Nina lived, there seemed to be only a few small settlements in the vicinity of that village.
Moreover, this information was obtained through traveling merchants, and it was not particularly accurate.
Therefore, Bai Ye didn't go to other villages to find out some information like this now.
For example, where the four dragons are..... For example, there is information about the sudden appearance of humans with great powers.
For the time being, he decided to go to the forest to the south as the village chief had spoken, and to find the sage of the so-called forest.
Treat everything equally, and also adopt a lot of "tragedies" like Nina, born from a mixture of humans and dragons.......
Although the other party also said that it was just a rumor, it was necessary to confirm it.
Because, since he brought this child out, then he needs to be responsible for it, this is his principle.
Moreover, what did the village chief say before......
"Silver-gray swordsman..... I don't know, it's the person I'm looking for......"
Bai Ye muttered to himself, slightly lost in thought.
I don't know if it was because his own murmuring woke up another person who was sleeping, and a slight movement came, and Nina's somewhat confused voice sounded.
"Hmm..... Big brother.. Haven't slept yet......"
Obviously, both eyes have been opened and closed, obviously in a state of full sleep, but because of this sudden awakening, he found that Bai Ye had not fallen asleep, and he still revealed a concerned tone, which made Bai Ye smile.
"Sorry to wake you up, Nina."
"Go to sleep in peace, big brother, I usually don't need to rest for that long, so don't worry about me."
Maybe it's because Bai Ye's words have a soft breath that makes people feel hypnotic.
Nina rarely continued to persuade Bai Ye to fall asleep, so after agreeing, she fell asleep again.
Looking at the little guy who fell asleep so quickly, Bai Ye also smiled bitterly.
After that, you can't talk to yourself anymore, or it won't be good to wake up the child.......
Shaking his head, Bai Ye always felt that this inexplicable concern for Nina was as if he was getting old.
I'm only about 20 years old, so why do I have this wonderful feeling of being a parent?
It can only be said that this child is too pitiful......
No longer letting his thoughts fly, Bai Ye continued to quietly fiddle with the bonfire, and began his own vigilant work again.
The night was still as silent.
―――――――――――――――
"Is this the area where the so-called sages of the forest live? It doesn't feel like a normal forest......"
Faced with the scene that seemed to be still the same forest as usual, Bai Ye was a little puzzled.
I don't think I'm looking for the wrong place.....
"What's wrong, big brother?"
Holding Bai Ye's warm jade-like hand, Nina tilted her head and looked at Bai Ye who suddenly frowned slightly.
"No, it's nothing, let's go check it out, Nina."
Bai Ye smiled and signaled that there was nothing wrong, and Nina nodded equally obediently.
Along the way, she seemed to have understood that it was impossible for Bai Ye to take care of her all the time.
Because, the big brother always occasionally stares at the sky in the distance, and, in the corner, sighs.
Presumably, there is something that has to be done, but I am worried about myself.
In addition, Nina also knew from Bai Ye's mouth that this time she came so far to find a place for herself.
In this way, it seems that she wants to be separated from Bai Ye, but she doesn't want to haunt Bai Ye with her life.
Because of the arrival of the white night, her original gray life has changed color.
Then, on top of this, she shouldn't make trouble for Bai Ye anymore, so no matter what happens after that, she will obey Bai Ye's arrangement.
Such an idea and unreasonable maturity, if Bai Ye knows, I am afraid that it will be distressing for a while.
However, this is also a helpless thing......
Holding Nina's hand, he walked towards the interior of the forest, and vaguely, Bai Ye finally found a strange place.
Here, no, it should be said that there seems to be an invisible force in this area, blocking the entry of foreign creatures.
Enchantment..... Looks like you're not in the wrong place......
The corners of Bai Ye's mouth were slightly hooked, if the so-called rumors were really in line with the facts, then this time, he would not come in vain.
He was about to step forward and lead Nina into the enchantment that was still a little clumsy for him.
Suddenly, a strange feeling welled up in Bai Ye's heart.
Subconsciously, Nina was protected behind him, and in the hands of Bai Ye, the flaming sword had already taken shape.
"I don't know why you're here, but I hope you can stop."
"This is not the place where a person with that special power like Your Excellency should come."
"So, I'm sorry."
A calm and magnetic apology sounded, but it made people feel a little depressed.
It's like a strange feeling that someone who has rarely spoken has said a lot at once.
And the guy in front of him, presumably, is the kind of existence that is usually silent.
With silver-gray hair and a resolute face, he held a large sword and wore silver armor, making a slight defensive gesture towards himself.
His face was filled with stubborn apology and perseverance, like an ascetic walking on a certain "path of justice".
That kind of existence that gives people a feeling of holding on to some kind of justice.
"You.... Who is it? ”
The words of inquiry spat out, echoing faintly through the forest.
For the man with a peculiar temperament in front of him, Bai Ye's eyebrows couldn't help but raise.
This guy is not an ordinary person......
