The warm light of the stove appeared around the temporary tent, and the dim yellow light also illuminated the scene of countless messy items piled up in it, and the woman who felt the sense of chaos and temporary slowly sat up, but the low groan she wanted to let out was interrupted by a sudden pain in the back of her head: "Woo-"

"This, where is this?"

Subconsciously asked this question, the woman's eyes that looked like jewels were also closed because of the pain, and the hand raised to cover the wound also stopped in mid-air in the next moment, stopping in front of the gauze and bandage: "I ......"

"Are you awake?" An indifferent voice then appeared in her ears, and the voice and calm tone of the same woman also made the panicked mood of the woman who was like a frightened bird a little: "Don't move, it's safe here for the time being." ”

Hurriedly turning her head, the woman caught the source of the sound with hesitant eyes, but the white figure had already left the place with her arms folded, and flashed beyond the curtain of the tent door that she could not see. The sound of the curtain breaking in the air and the faint sound of conversation from outside also sounded in her ears for a moment, making the doubts and uneasiness in her heart become slightly sluggish, and she vaguely observed the heavy blanket and felt cloth she was holding between her hands, and the imperceptible dazed consciousness was also broken by the man's voice inserted into it again for a moment: "Hello." ”

"It's Miss Nahia, isn't it?"

The door curtain was lifted and lowered again, and the figure belonging to Duan Qing also appeared in the center of the intertwined light formed by the dim light and the piles of debris, and he didn't know what he was holding in his hands, and then he also cleared his throat, trying to find the beginning of this conversation: "I am the Linyuan Broken Water of the Qingling Adventure Group, and my companions and I are currently temporarily stored in the territory of the Hulun Clan, we have no malicious intentions, but we have received a task to find it...... ......"

Looking at the woman in front of him pulling the blanket vigorously and looking at his reaction vigilantly, Duan Qing took back all the polite words that had been to be introduced, and he didn't know how it should be good, and then he coughed again to hide his expression, trying to find other ways to break through the embarrassing situation in front of him: "That, this, uh...... That's right. ”

The gray-robed magician with his hands stained with oil wiped his face indiscriminately, and then placed a plate of roasted meat that had just been roasted and that had been conjured out of nowhere at this time and emitted a golden glow in front of the other party: "I don't know if it's appropriate to ask this question at this time, but ...... Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something first? ”

"I, I'm ......" The eyes were still dodging, and the body of the woman who was called Nahia still wanted to refuse then made a gurgling sound because of the lure of the aroma of food, and the slender face that was originally a little pale also rose a flush at this time, and disappeared between the constantly shaking dim light with the movement of her lower head: "Thank you, thank you." ”

"It doesn't matter, the hunting results of the rising sun today are indeed very rich."

Nodding his head, Duan Qing looked at the silhouette of the woman who began to enjoy his fruits and delicious meals with satisfaction, and the movements that were originally a little cringe because of weakness and caution became more and more rapid with the passage of time, and the beautiful face with condensed skin and like a fairy far away from the world also began to be stained with the unique oiliness of the world's fireworks: "-Woo woo woo!" ”

"Water." A kettle then appeared next to her face that suddenly became painful, and Duan Qing was trying his best to hold back a smile: "Don't panic, just eat slowly." ”

"Thank you." A long sigh of thanks rose again after the watering, and the woman known as Nahia shrank her slightly embarrassed face behind the kettle she was holding in both hands, and her body, which was also curled up under the blanket and felt cloth, seemed to have just reacted, and carefully dodged into the corner of the tent: "You, how are you—"

"It may seem cruel and unacceptable to say, but now is not the time to care." Sitting across from Nahia with a dusty face, Duan Qing replied with a smile, "You just need to understand: it's good that you have been abandoned by the Bageren family now, and then picked up by us." ”

"Yes." Sighing and saying these two words, the face of the woman with black hair who was quite disheveled behind the kettle also became lost: "Sure enough, they still don't want to accept my words......"

"That's what my companions and I want to ask you." Nodding his head, Duan Qing tried his best to make his tone sound friendly enough: "It seems that something very tragic has happened to you, this kind of routine of being stuffed with a stick and a sack will generally only appear in people who are extremely hateful." ”

"You're right, in their eyes, I'm a sinner now." Curled up and hiding her whole body under the blanket, Naxia's revealed pair of cut eyes were full of lost feelings: "I said things they would never believe, and did things they would never forgive, so they won't let me go." ”

"Maybe it's just the times." I don't know if I understood the woman's words, Duan Qing said in a low voice and replied: "There is nothing in this world that is never forever, and it is extremely difficult for logically infinite possibilities to happen in reality, just like the task we have now - if they really want to kill you, they should not use this kind of secret and obscure missing person notice to arrest you." ”

"According to our adventure group's previous guesses, this matter is mostly related to some important secret of the entire Hulun clan." His voice paused slightly, and his tone sounded again with a deeper tinge, "You may be a key figure now, Lady Nahia." ”

“……”

Without answering Duan Qing's words, the woman holding her knees looked at the front of the tent in a daze, and the dim light reflected on the scattered black hair seemed to have become extremely obscure at this time, and she couldn't reflect any perceptible luster at all: "I know what they want, but-"

"It's for the Stone of Calm, right?" Suddenly saying this term, Duan Qing successfully used his own voice to pull up the woman's seemingly depressed mood again: "What is that?" ”

"You, how do you know-" The mouth that was about to open just now lowered again, and Nahia's expression then became relieved: "Ah, I see, they can't hide it now." ”

"The Stone of the Wind Suppression is a treasure of the Hulun clan, and it is also their passport to enter the Central Grassland." She was silent for a while, and finally finally told Duan Qing what she wanted to know: "The Central Grassland is the closest place to the Divine Mountain, and it is also the closest place for all powerful tribes to listen to the voice of the gods. ”

"The Stone of the Wind is the best ticket to pass this test." The woman hugged her knees and looked straight ahead without looking at Duan Qing again: "But now they don't." ”

"Is it because of the relationship you stole from you?" Duan Qing asked this question as a matter of course: "Is the Wind Suppression Stone still in your hands?" ”

"No, it's no longer in this world." Shaking her head, Nahia replied emotionlessly, "I've destroyed the stone, and they don't want to find it again." ”

"......" didn't say his next sentence for a long time, Duan Qing raised his eyebrows: "Really?" But they've been looking for you. ”

"Of course they didn't know about it, otherwise they wouldn't have wasted so much energy on me." The smile on the corner of her mouth quickly disappeared, and Naxia's gaze shifted a little towards Duan Qing's position: "I won't let them continue to move forward a bit, if you have extra energy to vent, then just put it on me." ”

"If you'd tell that to that Bagren, he probably wouldn't have chosen to knock you out and throw you outside our camp." Duan Qing, who was relieved, sighed leisurely: "Why do you want to tell us? ”

"Because you don't seem to be from the Hulun tribe, you shouldn't waste your lives for some nonsense reasons such as strange ancestral beliefs." Raising his chin, the woman's eyes hidden under the scattered black hair fell a little in front of Duan Qing's eyes: "If I tell you about this now, you shouldn't hand me over for money, after all, they have nothing to recover back, right?" ”

"What a smart guy." Involuntarily clapped his palms twice, Duan Qing replied with a pleasant face: "It's completely different from those people of the Hulun tribe - you shouldn't be from your own tribe either, right?" ”

“……”

It seemed to lead the topic into a direction that she didn't want to mention, Naxia, who lowered her head, completely lost her voice, and Duan Qing, who was watching all this, then ignored the topic in front of her without paying attention, slapped her legs and slowly stood up: "Okay, we really won't hand you over, and we will try our best to ensure your safety until we confirm what kind of influence your existence has on the entire Hulun clan." ”

"Of course, please also think about your own life and try your best to cooperate with our actions." He pointed to the left and right of the tent, and a smile appeared again in the corner of his eye: "Baglon must have the same idea when he threw you here in this way, we temporary passers-by who followed the Sue to this place are simply a match for your current situation." ”

"What about the Sioux?" Finally, after hearing some other information from the other party's mouth, Nahia suddenly raised her head: "You are the 'King of the North' Nasu tribe?" Why are you here? ”

"It seems that if there is a chance, I should have a good exchange with that guy in Surtu, and let him brag about his previous stories of this 'famous' tribe." Shaking his head with a wry smile, Duan Qing turned around and walked towards the outside of the tent: "Don't worry, the Su clan is no longer the king of the northern realm, we have been here with the Wabu clan, and now-"

"Now I'm probably just like you, just a flock of caged birds."

********************************

"What was the result of the contact?"

The time came to the early morning of the next day, and it was the beginning of another day of clear sky accompanied by countless grassland winds, Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was preparing to set off again with a sword and shield, while sorting out his equipment, asked in a low voice to Duan Qing, who was working the side, "Have you talked to that woman?" How does it feel? ”

"It's beautiful, and if it weren't for a series of events and the ending of the exile, she would have been able to show us that she is like Venus." Guarding in front of the tent and constantly busy with something, Duan Qing replied without raising his head: "I even have some doubts, how did the people of the Hulun tribe keep this woman all over her body until now, is their patriarch a monk with a pure heart and few desires?" ”

"Get down to business." Holding back the idea that she wanted to beat the other party fat, Xue Lingphantom Bing pursed her mouth and continued to ask, "Have you asked everything you want to ask?" ”

"Of course, it's pretty much the same as we guessed." Duan Qing replied in a deep voice: "Except for some details that have not yet been confirmed, the woman we picked up should have robbed the Hulun clan of their best hope to move forward in her own way, so she has become what she is now." ”

"If the storm was the biggest obstacle to getting to the central area, it should no longer be there." Pointing to the clear blue sky above the two people's heads, Xue Lingphantom Ice asked with a strange expression, "Hasn't the storm stopped because of the eruption of the leylines?" Just follow this primitive air duct and continue forward. ”

"We haven't seen the mountain before, and we don't know what the situation is like there." Lowering his head and sorting out something, Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "It is very likely that the Su clan and the Hulun clan are both people who have seen that scene before, and most of them also know what kind of qualifications they need to enter the Divine Mountain, so they are so busy now." ”

"So what do we choose?" Tightening the bandage on his wrist, Xue Ling's Phantom Ice's steps as he prepared to set off paused for a last moment: "Continue to exchange for the trust of the Hulun clan?" ”

"I haven't finished what I said just now - this Nahia is obviously also the one who knows the secrets of the mountain." Duan Qing replied without raising his head, "So although the risk is high, I personally recommend keeping her." ”

"You guys go out and do the mission first, and I'll be responsible for staying here today."
