8. Involvement (medium)
Guessing alone what happened to the Zhang family in Shuzhou in the past, Zhang Longqian's eyes fell on Danyuan in front of him, and gradually became a little distracted, and when she suddenly woke up, Danyuan was already close in front of her, and she didn't know when she had run to the position where Danyuan was within reach.
It was as if something unseen had pulled her silently.
Blinking at the colorful colors in front of him, Zhang Longqian suddenly let out an exclamation.
“…… Wow! ”
The body immediately floated backwards, and Zhang Longqian looked at the slow-moving Danyuan with a shocked expression.
Zhang Longqian remembered very clearly that when she went out from here two days ago, Feng Xing had told her very seriously that in order to delay the recovery time of the Five Elements Sword, she must contact Danyuan as little as possible, once her mind - that is, her consciousness - touched Danyuan, then Danyuan would automatically speed up, which was equivalent to starting cultivation, and the recovery of the Five Elements Sword would also be accelerated.
To put it simply, Zhang Longqian's death will be closer.
Although she acted indifferent in front of Fengxing, Zhang Longqian still cherished her life very much, so in the past two days, for the sake of insurance, she never sank into the sea of consciousness once, and it was not until she was in a low mood just now that she briefly forgot about this stubble and ran in to find Fengxing.
Finally remembering these life-threatening things, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but sigh.
"When I was in a trance, I was drawn to it...... It's a dangerous thing......"
Glancing at Danyuan running quietly again, Zhang Longqian's eyes flashed with shallow longing, and then she shook her head lightly and said to herself: "Forget it, the eldest brother is not here, I'd better go out." ”
After saying that, she closed her eyes as if she wanted to force herself not to look, and then withdrew from the sea of consciousness.
As soon as he opened his eyes, what greeted Zhang Longqian's vision was Bai Lu's enlarged face, and his head was about to touch Zhang Longqian, and his big eyes were unblinking, staring straight at her.
"Awake?"
Zhang Longqian was taken aback, and his body subconsciously leaned back before he smiled: "Xiaolu? You've found the Spirit Snake Bead so quickly? It's not been a day, has it? ”
Bai Lu stood up straight and wrinkled her nose slightly: "One day? It's only been a little over an hour! Long Qian, didn't you sleep well yesterday? He looked sleepier than me. ”
Seeing Bai Lu's confused face, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but smile lightly, but he wasn't ready to explain anything. Raising his eyes and looking at the lounge, he found that no one except Bai Lu was there, so he asked, "It's only been more than an hour, which means that you haven't entered the Demon Slaying Forest yet, right?" So what are you doing when you come back? What about the others? ”
"We're ready to leave, everyone else is waiting for you next to the ban that Hanyang Zhenren is going to open, I'm coming back to pick you up." As she spoke, Bai Lu dragged Zhang Longqian up from the chair.
"Pick me up? If I don't go, why pick me up? ”
Bai Lu puffed out her cheeks, her small mouth pursed slightly, and she looked at Zhang Longqian with an aggrieved expression: "Don't you want to say goodbye to everyone?" We may be able to come back today, but we may not see each other for a few days......"
After being stunned for a moment, Zhang Longqian reacted a little hindsightly, she hurriedly apologized to Bai Lu, who was about to cry, and followed her out while comforting her softly.
Under the leadership of Bai Lu, Zhang Long sneaked into a strange place composed of many stone pillars like a teleportation array, and before he could stand firmly, he saw a flash of white light, and then the surrounding environment completely changed, and there were several people standing not far away, with Zhang Hanguang as the center, what kind of formation was formed, everyone had a faint red light in their hands, and the four of Cangyan were standing next to those people, and behind them was a deep and dense forest. I don't know if it's because of the preconceived psychology after listening to Nangong Piao's explanation, Zhang Longqian always felt that the forest was a little dark and terrifying, exuding a cold atmosphere.
Seeing Zhang Longqian and Bai Lu coming, Nangong Piao smiled and waved his hand, "Long Qian, you are finally here!" ”
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting for me." Smiling apologetically, Zhang Longqian walked over quickly, only to notice that everyone was carrying a bag that was not too big behind them, the same style as the one behind Bai Lu. Compared to the petite Bai Lu and Zhou Miao, the small size backpack is just right, but for the other three men, even if they carry it in their hands, it seems too incompatible.
Especially Cangyan.
Cang Yan didn't carry the backpack in his hand like Nangong Piao and Zuo Ling, but carried it behind him very honestly, his face was still full of indifference, and he didn't have any opinion on this backpack that didn't match him, and that indifferent attitude would even make people mistakenly think that he was carrying a tactical backpack that matched him very well. But no matter how much Cang Yan didn't care, he couldn't change the fact that the bag didn't match him at all, Zhang Longqian always felt like a cold and handsome killer carrying a child's schoolbag, how strange it was, she couldn't help but smile and asked: "Is that bag your necessities in it?" ”
Nodding his head slightly, Nangong Piao glanced at the backpack in his hand, and his face seemed to be a little embarrassed because of this object that was not suitable for boys: "This is only a part, the most important thing is in the bracelet on Teacher Zuo Ling's wrist, these are prepared for us when we disperse." ”
"Bracelets?"
Zhang Longqian looked at Zuo Ling suspiciously, and saw Zuo Ling pull up the sleeve of his left hand a little, revealing an emerald green bracelet one finger wide, and smiled: "This is it." What Hanyang Zhenren just gave me is a kind of space storage tool, and it can also be used to send us out of the forest when the time comes, otherwise we won't be able to get out of the big array inside. ”
Zhang Longqian nodded, glanced at the backpack that everyone had, and asked, "Aren't you acting collectively?" Are you going to go your separate ways? ”
"It's just prevention. Because if you don't say what accidents you will encounter, it's always good to be prepared. Saying that, Zhou Miao raised a palm-sized thing in his hand to Zhang Long, and said lightly, "This is the detector and communicator that came out of the rush just now, which can be used for us to communicate with each other - don't ask about mobile phones, there is no signal in the Demon Slaying Forest, so you can't use mobile phones." There is also an electronic map inside, everyone is not you, and you will not be so stupid as to look at the map and go the wrong way. ”
was blushing by Zhou Miao's merciless words, Zhang Longqian pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and quickly changed the topic: "How many have you done?" ”
"One for each person." Zhou Miao said lightly, followed the topic and looked at the other four people, and said to them calmly: "The materials are not counted, the manual fee is three hundred per person, remember to pay it off after you come out." ”
didn't expect Zhou Miao to say such a thing, Zuo Ling and Nangong Piao couldn't help but be stunned, and Bai Lu immediately called softly: "Huh? Do I want it too? ”
"Of course."
"Please, Xiao Miao, I'm not an outsider, aren't you?"
"Everyone is equal before money." Lifting his glasses, Zhou Miao replied plainly and crisply.
“…… Xiao Miao, you miser. ”
