I pulled Yao Qianwen behind me.

The black shadow walked down slowly, and the footsteps sounded a little strange, not hurried or slow, but not calm. The owner of the footsteps was thoughtful.

It gradually became clear to him that it was Zuo Yuan.

We looked at him, and he was surprised, but not so surprised.

At that time, I had a thought in my heart, that the black sand, or the egg, shared sight or hearing. So he already knew what was going on down here.

"You're really out of my mind." He finally spoke, his gaze gradually moving to the egg in my hand, "That thing doesn't mean anything to you. ”

"Perhaps, but at least I need it for now. But I'm also a little curious, why are you only coming down now? ”

He probably didn't like me holding the egg like this at the moment, but since he knew it in advance, he didn't stop me, which is also a problem. Obviously, all this was by no means another trick of Zuo Yuan, otherwise, his expression should not be like this. What's more, such a plan within a plan is completely meaningless.

"Shared vision, right?" I spoke out of my previous guess.

He didn't respond, but I should have said that correctly.

"At first I noticed the problem, but, I have to admit, I can't handle the way you look when you spread your wings. I should have seen it, but I don't remember it so clearly. He also forgot a lot about what happened in the crypt of the church. Then, Zuo Yuan continued: "I thought that there was still a chance, that is, you were killed by the egg. But your evolution really doesn't give me comprehension. So I didn't dare to come down and stop it, what if you destroy that thing? Let you take it, maybe there is room for negotiation. ”

In fact, the style of his speech at the moment is no longer quite like the Zuo Yuan I know.

Tell me all my fears about the person who created my fears, and his expression is already admitted, waiting for me to make a condition.

There are two options, one, it's still a ruse.

Second, this egg is really very important to him, and he can do anything to prevent the egg from being destroyed.

As I said before, new tricks are almost impossible, and there is no need for such a superfluous scheme. Then there is only the second answer. But what is this thing? I've been in extremely close contact with it, and it's definitely not a bug.

It doesn't smell like a worm at all......

I don't feel the poison either.

So what's in it?

I'm curious, but it doesn't seem like this is the right time to focus on this. I turned the conversation straight to my ultimate goal, "I wasn't very interested in it, like I said at the beginning, the boy's grandfather, the route to Ugin Island, that's what I wanted." If you can give it to me as soon as possible, and confirm to me that it's true, I can always give it back to you. ”

I patted the egg in my hand, "So it's up to you to live or die." ”

"I promise you."

He gave me the answers I wanted, and it surprised me a little quickly.

But immediately after that, he reminded, "But you may not know what it is, but I must make one thing clear to you." If this thing is destroyed, no matter who you are or where you are hiding, even if it is the end of the earth, we will find you and make your life worse than death. ”

It seems like a very routine threat, but it is serious.

I believe that if I destroy this thing, the current Zuo Yuan, and behind him, there will be many beings who are extremely resentful of me.

So I responded, "Okay, I promise you." However, although your memory of me is not very comprehensive now, you can probably tell that I am not very afraid of trouble, and if I don't get what I want, I don't care about a few more enemies at all. ”

"You'd better keep it that way forever."

"Then you are a blessing to me."

The atmosphere of the chat was terrible, but the result was what I wanted. Zuo Yuan agreed to take me to the boy's grandfather, but told me in advance that it was a little far, and that I could not take normal transportation, and that I would need to travel through the mountains and forests, and that it was best for me to keep the egg during this time.

Then he began to make arrangements, and we set off together that morning.

It's just that at this time, in addition to me, Yao Qianwen, and Zuo Yuan and the boy, there is one more person. It's the boy's sister, and they're supposed to be brother and sister, so the grandfather is the same person. After getting off the boat before, the girl also saw Zuo Yuan, and like the boy, she was very close to Zuo Yuan, but maybe because of something, the girl left first, and when I chose one of the two, I chose to follow the boy who was closer to Zuo Yuan.

When the girl saw me, she was surprised, but not much fear. The boy was afraid of me, but he didn't know what was going on in the basement of the hut and why we reconciled, so he only explained to the girl that Zuo Yuan had promised to wait for us to meet his grandfather and get directions to Ugin Island.

Walking through the mountains and forests, we didn't have any words, and just like that, all the way to the evening, the low roar of wild beasts and the strange cries of birds came from the dim forest.

We paused for a moment to rest and ate our own food. What I didn't expect was that the girl came to me and Yao Qianwen with two drinks at this time, "Hey, that uncle? ”

This title is the same as Yao Qianwen.

I turned my head to look at her, "Something?" ”

She came to my side and sat down on a half-cut stump beside her, "Ah...... This one is up to you. ”

I took the juice and looked at her with some curiosity: "I don't quite understand this." ”

She squeezed out a smile at me, "I heard that it seems that you are not very pleasant, you and your brother, and Uncle Zuo Yuan." However, I don't think you're a bad person, uncle, although I didn't know what was going on on the ship before, but you saved us, I know this......"

I didn't respond, just looked at her.

"So, yes, so I'm actually just here to say thank you." She continued.

She stammered like a shy little girl.

"You're welcome." I responded.

"My name is Anna!" She took the initiative to say her name.

"Hmmm......"

"Then, then I'll go over to eat first, uncle, you can call me if you have something." With that, she left, glancing at the black cloth in my arms before leaving. It was wrapped in an egg, and although it was still an egg, it was also alive, and it could not be allowed to be beaten by the wind and rain, so it was temporarily covered.

Yao Qianwen leaned into my ear at this time and whispered, "Hey, uncle, why did that little girl show favor to you?" ”

"You ask her to go."

"It looks pretty simple...... Don't be cold to people. ”

"Then you went over to marry her Jinlan?"

"You're so annoying, people talk to you well, you seem to have eaten gunpowder, phew! ......"Yao Qianwen glared at me, and then stopped paying attention.

As for Yao Qianwen's "chat with me well", I can only smile coldly at her.

After resting for a while, we continued to hurry, and then Du Youlan switched identities and became a lot quieter. At about ten o'clock in the evening, we stopped to rest and prepare to start our journey again tomorrow morning. Although I was parasitized by the king worm, I was also tired, I didn't sleep for a day and a night, and now I am extremely sleepy. Zuo Yuan is a scheming person, even if he temporarily agrees to cooperate, he must always be on guard, especially at night. Fortunately, Du Youlan switched her body and didn't need to rest, so she just kept a vigil for me.

So, I held the egg and gradually fell asleep.

But the sleep was not very good, and soon I fell into strange dreams. In the dream, I was enclosed in a round ball, and my mind was not clear in the dream, and I didn't understand what it was at first, but as time went on, I gradually realized that it was an egg, and I probably got into that egg in the dream.

Speaking of which, I'm curious about it, what exactly is in this egg that absorbs human nutrient stocks?

So I wandered around in my dreams, inside the egg. As I walked, it got bigger and bigger, and I gradually couldn't see the edge. You can only see a blank white from front to back, up and down.

But a certain sound gradually entered my ears at this time.

Boom!

Knock knock!

Knock Knock......

That's, a heartbeat-like sound!

I walked step by step in the direction from which the sound came, getting closer and closer to it, and in the white mist, I faintly saw a shadow, tall and strong, prostrate on the ground, with a body like a reptile. This thing is familiar, I feel like I've seen it somewhere.

After a long time of confusion in the dream, I finally remembered that this was a worm.

It's very similar to the king worm, the seven-person king worm, and very much like Mina, the alienated Mina.

But it didn't smell like a worm, and I couldn't see the subtle venom through my sensitive eyes.

As I got closer, its body gradually became rounded, its edges and corners smoothed, and its insect-like body gradually shrunk until it finally took on a humanoid form.

It was a woman's body.

She lay on her stomach.

I walked up to her and instinctively reached out, "You, do you need help?" ”

She slowly raised her hand, her fingers touching mine, the coolness penetrated into my body, and my hand was grabbed by her, "Liar." ”

Mina's voice suddenly drilled into my ears.

Make my mind buzz!

I stared at the man, and when she looked up, she had Mina's face! Then he quickly turned into a seven-person king worm, knocked me down, and gnawed at my body......

"Uh......"

"Smack!" Then I felt a slap in the face.

I opened my eyes in a daze and saw the moonlight, as well as Yao Qianwen's face under the moonlight, and Du Youlan's eyes, "Nightmare is nightmare, humming and chirping are very annoying." She looked at me with some curiosity in her eyes, "What kind of nightmare will you be frightened by now?" ”

"Huh......" subconsciously exhaled, I realized that I seemed to be really scared, looking at Du Youlan, I responded: "I dreamed of Mina." ”

"Isn't that a sweet dream?"

"It's not beautiful at all." I shook my head and sat up, but I was stunned. I was surprised to find that the egg that was very light in my arms and should have existed was missing at the moment!!

Stolen?

No way, I trust Du Youlan very much, with her, that thing won't be stolen.

At least it won't disappear because of Zuo Yuan over there.

Where did it go?

"Found out?" Du Youlan looked at me with a smile.

She knows!

I wanted to question, but because Zuo Yuan was nearby, I swallowed back the words I was about to blurt out, and changed my words: "You woke me up, not just because of a nightmare, right?" ”
