Chapter 392: Bright Flowers

"Miss Yunying, why don't we just rush to the cornfield overnight?"

Cloud Shadow's previous act of killing the goblin sentry made Jilie a little worried about what to do if something happened in the Night Wasteland.

"Alas, Wangshan runs a dead horse, who knows how much we have to rush, not to mention that my horse is already a little out of strength - everyone is on alert tonight, and will hurry again tomorrow morning."

Yun Ying was not unaware of Ji Lie's concerns, but at this time, the horse's bloodline advantage was revealed, and her "BMW" endurance was obviously worse than that of Ji Lie and Feike's "Elaine" and "Xiao Fang".

"Okay, then let's continue camping tonight, I think as long as the three of us take turns keeping vigil, we should be able to detect the danger in time."

As he spoke, Feiko skillfully lit a fire on a bare earth, and the night was peaceful—the light of the fire that danced throughout the night seemed to bring enough good luck to Cloud Shadow and his party.

The next morning, continuing on their way, the explorers, who hadn't had a hot soup for a week or so, were already missing the chef at Boulenc Manor.

"Ah, we're finally on the familiar cornfield again."

At 1:30 p.m., Feiko was the first to ride through the well-planned cornfields, and God knows how nervous he was when he camped out on unfamiliar wasteland every night.

"yes, I'll be back at Borunc Manor by tomorrow night at the latest."

Ji Lie controlled "Elaine" and walked on the wide ridge with a relaxed expression, he finally did not have to worry about encountering scavenging rats that eat people and do not spit out bones.

"Phew—it's a pity I didn't find my goal."

Although Yunying had some vague clues in her mind, she had no way to confirm it, and perhaps she should go back to Boulunc Manor to talk to the strange portrait.

"Miss Yunying, don't be discouraged, we can come back in the future."

Ji Lie's firm and simple words made Yun Ying smile slightly, this brave mercenary man was already planning his next expedition.

"Actually, I'm more worried about someone than I'm looking for a certain goal......"

That's right, these days, she has been guessing Yin Feng's current situation in her mind all the time, and she even has to ask Louisville several times a day if she feels Yin Feng coming back. But the ending is cruel - Cloud Shadow is afraid that it won't be long before she is driven to hysteria by the emptiness in her heart.

"Well, you see, what's that?"

Feike, who was walking in the front, suddenly spoke out vigilantly, and Yun Ying's thoughts were instantly pulled back, and he looked at the former's fingers - there was a sound in a cornfield!

"Scavenging rats?!"

In this situation where he couldn't see the other party's figure again, Ji Lie pulled out his waist knife and thought about the danger in the wasteland again.

"Probably not, only a small piece of corn stalk is shaking now, but I can't tell that it's a working civilian, Jilie, Feike - take your weapons, let's still outflank the three of us like a goblin sentry."

After Cloud Shadow whispered instructions, the three of them dismounted softly and walked quickly from three directions to the place where the movement occurred.

"Phew!"

When the position of the movement was about the same, Jilie slashed at the shaking corn stalk with a fierce force.

"Ahh

When the corn stalks were all broken, a frightened voice suddenly erupted from beneath it—it seemed familiar. Cloud Shadow leaned in and took a look: "Philips? ”

"O goddess of nature, brother! Miss Cloud Shadow? ”

Philips, who was originally squatting on the ground, suddenly straightened up in a panic, and his face looked very ...... Afraid.

"Philips. How did you end up here? You didn't eat with your mother? ”

Ji Lie put away his waist knife and frowned, he obviously noticed his brother's abnormality as well.

"Well, I'm going to like to run around in a few days - I've already told my mom."

Philips rubbed his foot against the ground, paused and continued without words: "I didn't expect to meet Big Brother and Miss Yunying here, are you here to see the scenery?" If you want to say that the corn here is growing really well, it wasn't ripe last time I visited......"

"What's under your feet isn't covered."

"Huh?!"

Listening to Philips's chatter, thinking of him saying that he would come around in a few days, Yunying felt more and more abnormal. So she decided to lie to Philips, but the latter jumped up and looked at the ground beneath her feet - there was something down there.

"Philips, get out of the way!"

Ji Yeol, who also saw the clues, was a little angry.

"Brother, don't!"

Philips, who has always admired his eldest brother, did not listen to Jilie this time.

"I said get out of the way, you have two ways - one is to get out of the way yourself and explain to us, and the other is to knock you out and pull away."

"Big Brother ......"

Hearing Ji Li's tough words, Philips turned pale and pleaded. But the former has no intention of making the slightest concession.

“…… Okay big brother, I hope you can let me take you down. ”

After hesitating for a long time, Philips finally compromised. He bent down and used a corn stalk to cut the dirt under his feet, and after three or five minutes, a one-meter-square wooden board cover appeared in front of Yunying and the others.

"Hey, is it authentic? How long will no one find out? ”

To Yunying's question, Ji Lie quickly answered: "This is my family's cornfield, and Philips is usually taking care of it. ”

"I see."

Seeing Philips silently open the lid of the plank and slip down a rope, Cloud Shadow pondered for a moment before nodding to the other two, and the second jumped down.

"Hey, good guys. This tunnel is a big project. ”

As soon as he slipped down the hemp rope to the bottom of the cave at a depth of three meters, Yunying was deeply shocked by the scene in front of him - it was a long corridor that was one meter five high and two people wide, and there was a magic lamp with simple workmanship every four or five meters on the polished and smooth earthen wall around it.

"Philips. I guess you should explain something. ”

When Jilie and Feike also went down to the cave, Yunying asked Philips, who had not spoken since just now, for answers, but unfortunately people did not bird her.

"Philips, do you want our family to be evicted from the Bouron estate because of your connection?"

is still the power of his brother, and Ji Lie's words made Philips's body tremble three times.

"Philips, tell us the truth of the matter, only then can we help you, you should know very well - it is not allowed to endanger the existence of Boulunck Manor, and you don't want your old mother to be displaced in the future!"

Feike also joined the ranks of persuading Philips, and his last words undoubtedly made all Philips's resistance collapse in an instant.

"No, don't think things so badly, this tunnel will never endanger Boulenc Manor, they just want a peaceful life."

They? Philips' flustered words made Yunying raise an eyebrow - she had a hunch that the purpose of her trip was in front of her.
