Chapter 36: Lin Xinquan
The night was peaceful, and I don't know if even the insects in this mountain forest are extinct or Xiao Ming's powder is too effective, everyone except Qu Junyan slept very well this night, and even the mosquitoes were not disturbed.
Qu Junyan cooked breakfast for everyone as usual, and I am afraid that there is no time to rest this morning.
"Teacher Qu, where did you go last night?" During this period, Tian Tian sat silently beside Qu Junyan and asked in a low voice. The words were full of worry.
Qu Junyan's hand paused slightly, and he quietly observed everyone's reactions. Except for Lin Mingsheng, Yin Zhihao and Jennard all faintly cast inquiring glances here, but they tacitly did not ask.
Apparently, the men had found out that she had slipped out of the camp.
It is worthy of being the person who can get the "strongest player...... Qu Junyan secretly sighed in his heart that he was careless. After settling down, Qu Junyan replied in a low voice as usual: I can't sleep, wander around.
The water source was more than three kilometers away from the camp, and Qu Junyan used the blessing of spiritual power to rush back within an hour, but such an abnormal thing could not be humane, so he simply made up an ambiguous reason to get through.
Tian Tian nodded thoughtfully, but the doubts in his eyes were not eliminated. But since Mr. Qu is reluctant to say it, there must be something important to do!
After the meal, under Qu Junyan's hint, everyone accelerated the process and finally arrived at Lin Xinquan before noon.
"What Xiao Ming said is indeed right, this Zhixi grass is indeed born by the water. I've seen more than dozens of them! Haha, we've won this time! "The appearance of Zhixi grass is very recognizable, and Jennard can see it at a glance. It seems that this time the task is much simpler than in previous years.
"Shhhhh......hhhhhhhhh ”
Following her gaze, Jennard was surprised to find that the water in Lin Xinquan showed an unnatural white, and the mist lingering on the water surface was even more durable, which was very weird.
"How so! This Lin Xin Spring is not a place of water source in the mountains! The downstream is still clear, how can this upstream be so turbid? Jennard's surprised eyes revealed his bewilderment. Because of the distance, it is not clear that the full picture of the spring is not clear.
"There's something in the spring." Qu Junyan retracted his gaze and paused and said, his eyes full of coldness. She didn't expect that there would be ...... in this spring
Yin Zhihao noticed the change in Qu Junyan's face, and asked cautiously, "Teacher Qu, what have you discovered?" ”
"Let's go! When you get to the spring, you will know. His voice dropped a few degrees suddenly, and he raised his feet and took the lead towards the spring. Several people had already noticed the anger in Qu Junyan's eyes, and without saying anything, they followed Qu Junyan's figure and walked towards the spring.
"This ...... How could all these animals sink into the spring! Isn't this spring water eating people......" Even Jenald, who prides himself on being bold, can't help but take a few steps back when he sees the scene of corpses everywhere now. There was a chill in their hearts, and the water they had eaten in the past few days was a tributary of Lin Xinquan......
A huge mouthful of Lin Xin Spring, the spring water is full of white-bellied animal carcasses as far as the eye can see, all kinds of corpses add up densely, covering the surface of the spring, and the scalp of people who look at it is numb.
"What the hell is going on with this spring! How did it come to this! Why did these animals die in vain?! Yin Zhihao's eyes were full of anger after reacting, such a large-scale death is definitely no less than a massacre that has been planned for a long time.
All things have spirits, and human beings are the heads of all spirits, but there are always people who do not take the names of others as their names. Then this kind of person will be punished by everyone.
The corners of Qu Junyan's mouth revealed the forbearance in her heart, she was not interested in small animals, but when she saw someone desecrating living beings like this, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. A speculation was buried in Qu Junyan's heart, and everything that happened here may have something to do with the person who followed them. The animals of the whole mountain were slaughtered! Very good!
The cold light in the corners of his eyes was so strange, like a dagger. Jennard couldn't help but shudder, at this moment, he felt that Qu Junyan was strange and terrifying, as if he had never really known her.
"Fetch grass."
The light voice blew with the wind and dispersed, sweeping like a feather in people's hearts. But no one in the audience dared to ignore the weight of this order, the kind of deterrent power that shrouded people, and the hairs of the people stood on end. Qu Junyan's face obviously had her familiar smile, but the smile didn't reach her eyes at all. In the black eyes, I don't know if it was everyone's illusion or what, it faintly revealed a touch of gold!
Jennard opened his mouth, originally wanting to remind Qu Junyan to pay attention to the color of his eyes, but for some reason, when he saw the coldness in her eyes, he couldn't say anything anyway.
Ever since Qu Junyan woke up from that slumber, several of them had realized how unusual Qu Junyan was, and he still didn't know anyone who could have such pure golden eyes.
It's just that Qu Junyan didn't say it, so they didn't ask. In any case, they know Qu Junyan, regardless of appearance. The friendship of life and death together will not be broken by such trivial things, not to mention, since this period of time, have they experienced less unbelievable things?
Jennard smiled bitterly in his heart, no matter what, what Qu Junyan decided to do, he would definitely accompany him to the end! He believes that those friends will do the same.
He believed that one day, Qu Junyan would tell them everything.
…… ……
Zhixi grass has arrived, and they are unwilling to stay longer in this devastated land of right and wrong, so they get up and return home. Along the way, no one was in the mood to speak, and Lin Xinquan's tragic scene became a thorn in the coffin, which made them linger for a long time.
There has always been cruel things in this world, but they are not in front of them, and no one knows how shocking they will be. In the hearts of every young man who is in the middle of blood, there is a heart to hoe the strong and help the weak, protect the young and love the living beings, this is what they think is right in their bones, and the chivalrous way of the Chinese children in their bones and blood makes them unbearable to look at the cruel face of the world.
The spirit of Chinese culture, dominated by Confucian benevolence and righteousness, has been inherited on the bright side, and the chivalrous thought of the Mohists is integrated into the hearts of every Chinese person from the inside. Confucianism is in officialdom, chivalry is in the people, and Confucianism and Mohist thought have influenced the descendants of Yan and Huang both brightly and darkly.
Europeans revere chivalry, Japanese revere samurai spirit, and Chinese seem to behave like chivalrous spirit. This land has witnessed too many people who do good deeds and don't want to leave their names, and they don't intend to ask for anything in return and glory, they are just doing what they think is right. Those warriors who go to the front line without hesitation in the face of danger are like chivalrous warriors, free and just.
The great man of chivalry is for the country and the people; The little one of chivalry is chivalrous and righteous.
Seeing the injustice, the road draws a knife to help, one day it will no longer be just a lyric, the evil in this world needs their generation to fight. In the hearts of several teenagers, a thought pushed them to firmly fight against the "evil" in this world at every step of the way in the future.
Perhaps years later, in retrospect, they remember a moment when they wished that their strength could help those who were weak.
The eyes are shining, and the bottom of the eyes is rippling with a pure heart.
…… ……
The sun was setting in the west, and the group returned to the place where they had set up camp last night.
Suddenly, Qu Junyan felt that gaze again, she turned her head to follow that feeling, and suddenly saw a black figure flashing through the woods not far away.
The shadow flickered too fast, and the light in the forest was dim, even if Qu Junyan had excellent eyesight now, he couldn't see clearly.
"What's wrong?" Yoon Ji-ho asked back.
Qu Junyan narrowed his eyes, not sensing a dangerous aura, "Something is watching us." ”
The speed of the black shadow that flashed was very fast, and if it weren't for the fact that her five senses were different from ordinary people, she might not have noticed it.
"Maybe it's a small animal, it's not far from the stream branch here, most of the surviving animals in the misty forest still need to drink water, let's block here, it is estimated that the roots of many animal teeth are itchy around." Perhaps trying to adjust the atmosphere, Jennard laughed wickedly.
Qu Junyan didn't answer, still staring at somewhere in the forest.
"Nader, have you seen any animals since we entered the forest?" Tian Tian's faint voice was no longer shy, serious and solemn, and the abnormal situation in the forest made her tense the strings on her body.
Jennard was stunned for a moment, then shrugged his shoulders again.
After entering the forest, I never saw a living animal, and even the most chirping birds in the trees were gone. This has never been done before, even if it is poisoned, it will not make everything in the forest die so completely, right?
It shouldn't have been poison, they had drunk the water from the spring, but nothing unusual happened. He had seen those animals up close when he was fetching Zhixi grass, and all of them were floating on the water, and there were not half of them on the shore. At first glance, it looks like a spring eating people!
The villagers of Zechuan Town have always protected Cangjie Mountain very well, and the animals in the misty forest are not disturbed by the outside world, and there are many kinds and huge quantities, and they have been like this for many years. Apart from poisoning, what else can make so many animals die?
"Maybe the teachers who are secretly keeping our training safe......" Jennard scratched his head, unable to think of the cause of the animal's death or who else would be here.
"There." Qu Junyan suddenly moved, her figure shook, and she walked in the direction of her fingers, and before everyone could react, her figure had disappeared into the dense forest.
"Hey! Wait for us ......" However, there was no trace of Qu Junyan in front of him.
