Chapter 173: Escape
The light of the sky poured through the dense foliage into the valley of the Nine Curves, and the birds flew out of their nests, their wings flapping through the trees. The sun shone on their wings, and every feather shone golden.
A ray of sunlight shone through the gap between the leaves, and landed right on Xia Ke's closed right eye. Xu felt the glare of the sun, Xia Ke frowned, and raised his hand to subconsciously block his face.
Without the glare of the sun, Xia Ke's brow furrowed slightly, and then, just a few seconds later, her left eye slowly opened, staring directly at the dazzling green leaves overhead.
That's it......
The corners of Xia Ke's mouth pulled a wry smile, it should be like this, because of the excessive use of power, it caused the body to be overconsumed and automatically fell into a state of sleep.
She was used to being sleepy.
However, she clearly remembered that she only used five times the Yuan Force, and although she would lose her strength at this level, she would definitely not fall asleep. But her current physical condition is too familiar to her, and it is clear that she has used ten times the yuan force, when was it? Why don't you have any memory at all......
"Are you awake?"
Yang Kaihe stood behind Xia Ke and looked down at Xia Ke. Xia Ke still maintained a flat lying position, looked up and followed the sound, only to see Yang Kaihe's eyes red, and the stubble on his face began to bubble out. The word exhaustion was written all over his body, as if something had happened overnight.
Xia Ke sat up with his body propped up, and after sitting up, after looking at his position, Xia Ke was a little speechless and supported his forehead. No wonder it feels so strange, sleeping on a tree trunk, it certainly doesn't feel normal. Turning around cautiously, Xia Ke smoothed the loose hair behind his ears with both hands, "How long have I been asleep?" ”
"Soon," Yang Kaihe looked at Xia Ke's face, why was this woman's face so calm now, had she forgotten what happened yesterday evening? "Just one night, did you feel anything strange yesterday?" After all, they still have to go out together, and if they don't ask clearly, if something goes wrong in the future, he doesn't even know how to deal with it.
"Strange place?" Xia Ke looked up, her hands still on top of her hair, her hairband didn't know where it had gone, only a hairpin remained. Now she didn't want to wear her hair loosely, so she had to find a way to use a hairpin to make a low-profile version of the ball head first.
While combing his hair with his fingers as a comb, he pondered what had happened yesterday.
Except for the sight of those gerbils, yesterday was still a normal day, pulling up his hair in one direction and asking rhetorically, "Is it what happened after I passed out yesterday?" You look worried. Also, why do we stay in the trees? ”
As soon as he heard Xia Ke ask, Yang Kaihe pursed his lips with an expression of 'I knew it would be like this'. After Xia Ke saw Yang Kaihe pouting, he asked in a somewhat anxious tone, "What's the matter, what do you say?" ”
Yang Kai and the station were stunned, staring at Xia Ke's eyes with two eyes, "You really don't remember?" ”
Being a little creepy by Yang Kaihe, Xia Ke reached out and patted Yang Kaihe's shoulder, and said deliberately scared: "It can't be that something big happened, right?" For example, yesterday you discovered the cause of the chaotic magnetic field in the forest? ”
“…… You're thinking too much! Yang Kai and Hui opened Xia Ke's hand, "This forest is strange, and your and my emotions have been affected since we arrived here yesterday." It's not clear what caused it, but be careful. ”
"So you spent the night with the birds in the trees?"
Xia Ke pointed to the bird's nest on another branch, she had just discovered it, the location of this bird's nest was really good, at least better than hers, the sunlight would not shine on her body.
Hearing the schadenfreude in Xia Ke's tone, Yang Kaihe didn't mean to be angry at all, but nodded and said, "The trees in here all look exactly the same," If he hadn't been forced to the tree by that strange movement, he wouldn't have been able to find this yet, "Just looking at the tree, there is no way to tell the direction, but the bird's nest in the tree can make you sure whether you have walked here or not." ”
Xia Ke sat up straight, and her gaze at the bird's nest became different, she would not forget that the most troublesome thing in this Jiuqu Ileum Valley was the bends and curves inside.
"Will you know your way?" Yang Kaihe stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Xia Ke, successfully attracting Xia Ke's gaze to his face.
Xia Ke shook his head, "No." As soon as the words fell, she saw Yang Kai and his entire expression froze, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in her heart, "You...... Would it, should? ”
Yang Kaihe was stunned for a moment, his eyes began to dodge, and he was a little embarrassed to turn his head away.
"Rub, you won't! You won't, why do you choose this Jiuqu Ileum Valley, is it fun to walk the maze? ”
"I didn't choose it, it was Brother Qiu who chose it," Yang Kaihe hung his shoulders weakly, he didn't recognize the way, but Brother Qiu recognized the way, as long as he followed Brother Qiu, he wouldn't go wrong.
But who would have thought that Brother Qiu would be separated from them?
If he hadn't sat on the tree, Xia Ke would have jumped to his feet in a hurry.
I don't know the way, and I'm looking for some chaotic magnetic field!
"Neither of us knows the way, so why don't we open any door now, let's go back first?" Xia Ke smiled and asked Yang Kaihe in a consultative tone, while visually measuring the distance from the branches to the ground.
Glancing down, Xia Ke couldn't laugh or cry. How did Yang Kaihe carry her, a ninety-five-pound living person, to such a high tree? She remembered that his Yuan Force was to control the sand rather than increase his strength or agility......
"Nope." Yang Kaihe stood up from the tree, because the movement was too big, so that the entire branch shook with him, and Xia Ke immediately fell down and hugged the branch under him with both hands.
If you can't do it, you can't do it, it's exciting!
Xia Ke continued to hold the branch in fear of death, lowered his head and complained, "Then what do you say?" Two road obsessives walking around in the labyrinth forest, do you think we have too much dry food or do you think we have nine lives? ”
"......"
"What a thing!" Xia Ke tilted his head, "You said that this forest is wrong, and the danger factor is unknown, why do you think we can find that thing in such an unknown and strange place?" With your Yuan Force suppressed by the chaotic magnetic field, or with my unstable Yuan Force? ”
Xia Ke's tone was not good, she was unwilling to wade into this troubled water, and now that she can go out, of course she has to leave quickly. Besides, she still cares a lot about what happened yesterday, it's so unusual, she didn't reach the limit, but she really fainted.
Maybe this situation is the ghost of the very strange thing that Yang Kaihe said, and if you continue to stay here, it will only become more and more dangerous, so the sooner you go, the better.
"Brother Yang," Xia Ke licked her lips that were a little dry, her water bottle was in her bag, and the backpack was placed behind Yang Kaihe, "Let's leave first, if we still want to come in, we just need to open any door......"
"Can't go," Yang Kaihe saw that Xia Ke's eyes fell on the backpack behind him, and he reached out and took the backpack and put it in front of Xia Ke. The reason why the backpack was placed behind him was because it allowed Xia Ke to lie on a branch.
Xia Ke looked at the backpack in front of him, and also understood that he was a little villain. They weren't going to coerce her with such a small amount of supplies, but who would want to threaten someone who can come home at any time with a few bottles of water and a few compressed biscuits?
Blinking his eyes in embarrassment, Xia Ke let go of the branch and sat upright, couldn't wait to open his backpack and take out the water bottle, and unscrewed the cap to take a big sip. However, after only one sip, Xia Ke put the lid on the water bottle again.
"Why? Brother Yang, if you want me to stay, you have to tell me the reason for staying. Or rather, what do you want me to do? ”
As he spoke, Xia Ke pulled out a compressed biscuit from his backpack. He tore open the package of compressed biscuits and ate them leisurely, without the slightest intention of sharing them with Yang Kaihe.
There are some things, it's not that she can't see it, but she doesn't want to say it.
This task was none of her business, and she was not interested in any appointment letter or punishment hall master's position. Rather than wasting time here, she would rather go and find Liang Zhousheng, whose whereabouts are now unknown.
Speaking of Liang Zhousheng, Xia Ke's already not very good appetite is even worse.
Her mouth began to dry again as she chewed on the compressed biscuits, and a smell of scallion oil mixed with plastic lingered on the tip of her nose.
Looking down at the compressed biscuits in his hand, Xia Ke folded the biscuit package and stuffed it into his pocket with some tediousness.
I can't eat it now, maybe I'll be hungry after a while, so I'd better keep it.
After solving his humble breakfast, Xia Ke looked at the ground with the nerves of his whole body, and after making sure that he would not lie down if he jumped down, he put his backpack on his back.
She glanced sideways at Yang Kaihe, who was still depressed, and shook her head with a smile.
Sister Duan said that no one will be good to you for no reason, all good has a source. If it is light, it will be rich, and if it is heavy, it will be ...... Kill you.
It is impossible to make money and color, so there is only one thing left to seek your life.
It's not enough to seek your life, but if you think about it, it's not far from ten.
Xia Ke bit her lip a little bitterly, in fact, she still believed in Brother Qiu and Brother Yang, after all, everyone is countdown, isn't it?
Why bother counting down? Isn't it good to help each other? I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out......
Shaking his head, Xia Ke jumped from one branch to another on his tiptoes. And just when Xia Ke landed on another branch, Yang Kaihe's body suddenly moved.
