Chapter 199
She had been lying in the tent all afternoon, the boy had not come in, and Shen Xinghe didn't know if he had been lying outside, but she herself did wake up from time to time, and she was basically not awake during the whole process.
It was the first time she had spent such a leisurely afternoon in this world, and her body seemed to have become lazy, and when she came out of the tent again at five o'clock, she saw that He Ningzhou was still lying there, with her eyes closed, and she slept so sweetly.
Obviously, I haven't slept before, but now I sleep again, and if I continue like this, I will sleep like a little pig!
Although Shen Xinghe thought so, she still didn't bother He Ningzhou, she just enlarged the map and found the closest "buried treasure" location so far, planning to see what she could dig up.
The nearest was less than five meters ahead, and she walked over to see the small red dot that showed her location moving slowly, and when she reached the target spot, she began to dig.
She didn't use any tools, just used her hands, digging little by little, and soon saw a round ball of the same color as the surrounding sand, about the size of her own hands.
She dug out the ball bit by bit, but for a moment she really didn't know how to open it.
She thought of the process of opening the spherical fruit in the previous place, so she also tried to twist it on this sphere, and sure enough, it was successfully opened, and the upper third of the sphere opened its mouth, and the thing inside appeared in front of Shen Xinghe's eyes, and it turned out to be a large piece of beef!
And it smells like a very fragrant grilled steak.
After eating so many "flower meat", "leaf meat", and grass blades before, and now it is the first time to see the real thing, Shen Xinghe almost burst into tears, walked over and patted the boy's face, "Get up, there is something to eat." ”
She thought that the boy would not react when he was sleeping, but the boy turned over, grabbed her hand quite accurately and put it back on his face, and opened his eyes to look at her and raised his eyebrows, "I dreamed of you when I slept." ”
After a week like this, when the two of them were still training that morning, they saw the desert fox pop up again and said to them, "How are you practicing now?" Can I go on a mission? ”
He Ningzhou said: "If you have something, you can say it, but whether you do it or not depends on my mood." ”
"Okay, I say, you must remember." Then the fox continued almost all the time, "You can look at your mobile phone, you will receive a location, you are going to set off to the location of the location, a total of three hundred kilometers away from here, be careful not to use any aircraft, you can only walk down-to-earth." When you reach your destination, you start digging the ground, you will see the steps that lead to the bottom, and then you will come to an underground palace, where you will find a treasure, and you will be guided by a guide on what to do. ”
After the fox said this, he disappeared in front of their eyes in an instant.
Shen Xinghe blinked and looked at the boy, "Do you remember?" ”
"Of course," the boy took a deep breath, "remember, it's not difficult, you can see if your phone has received the location first." ”
Shen Xinghe opened it and saw that there was, and it was indeed three hundred kilometers away from their current location.
"300 kilometers, even if we can walk 100 meters in a minute, we can't walk for two days without stopping for a moment, which means that we must be prepared to walk for three days, and what will we encounter on the road, whether there are unidentified creatures attacking, whether there are sandstorms and so on. But then again," the boy smiled as he looked at her, "and the fox doesn't have any rules on how long it will take, so we don't have to rush at all." ”
Shen Xinghe sighed lightly, "Then it's better to try to be as fast as possible, I'll go pack my things now, let's go, okay?" ”
"Okay."
The first thing they need to do when walking in the desert is the water source, which they get here in the same way as everything else, from the spheres dug out of the ground. Shen Xinghe's luck is not bad, he has saved a lot of water in the past few days, which should be enough for them to drink on the road.
What's more, they can also dig up things to replenish resources at any time along the way, and this task really has no time limit, and they can stop and rest at any time.
Shen Xinghe quickly sorted out all his things, put the tent in his backpack, and walked towards the destination with the boy.
Obviously, there are ready-made flying machines, and the boys themselves can fly, but they just want them to go on foot, saying that they don't believe it, but Shen Xinghe doesn't bother to complain, so he thinks he is here to experience life.
They set off not too late, at ten o'clock in the morning, the first two hours felt more like a desert trip, and they didn't feel how hard it was to walk on the desert, probably after so many days of getting used to it?
At twelve o'clock she asked the boy if he was hungry and if he wanted something to eat.
"Let's eat," said Heningzhou, "and we'll take out our tents and rest for a while." ”
Shen Xinghe resisted the urge to hold his forehead, aren't they really here for a vacation......
After the two of them finished eating, they took out the tent, and after waking up, they continued on the road, Shen Xinghe felt more and more that the time of their advance and their daily training almost coincided, and if they went on like this, they would be able to reach their destination in about sixty kilometers a day, that is, it would take them five days to reach their destination.
After this day, they continued to walk except for dinner, and at ten o'clock, Shen Xinghe also felt a little tired, but he still insisted on walking for nearly an hour, and at eleven o'clock they went to bed on time.
Shen Xinghe slept very soundly, originally thought that he could sleep until dawn when his body was so tired, but he didn't expect that it would take long before he felt the young man in his arms break away from her arm.
"What's wrong?" Shen Xinghe said in a daze, "Do you feel that the demon clan is coming again?" ”
As he spoke, he felt as if he had heard something moving as well, and it seemed as if more than one person was talking outside.
He Ningzhou took a deep breath, "Go out and have a look, it's noisy!" ”
Shen Xinghe still followed him out, it was pitch black outside, only a little hazy moonlight, they concentrated their spiritual power to their eyes, and it was easy to see that there was a group of animals gathering not very far away from them.
"Do you want to hear what they're saying?" The boy asked.
"Do you really want to hear it?" Shen Xinghe blinked, isn't it snooping on other people's privacy?
"Afraid of what?" He Ningzhou said unhappily, "If they didn't want us to know, they wouldn't be here at all, and now they clearly want us to know, so what's polite?" ”
Shen Xinghe had nothing to say, and he really wanted to know what happened to those animals that needed to be discussed in the desert at night, so he dropped his spiritual power to his ears and listened carefully.
The boy even pulled her to sit down, snuggled up in her arms, and closed his eyes.
Shen Xinghe had seen that half of those animals were desert foxes, and the other half had a head bigger than a fox, which looked a little like a wolf, Shen Xinghe listened to what they said, it seemed that the general meaning was that the demon clan had robbed them of a treasure, and now they planned to grab it back, and that treasure could not be used immediately, it needed to be refined for a few days, and this time was also used to retrieve the treasure.
Fortunately, the "main quest" did not stipulate a time, so that they had time to do some "private work", so after walking for a while, the young man asked: "We can only walk to the castle of the demon clan?" ”
Shen Xinghe thought back to the words of the demon clan, and said with some tears and laughter: "It seems to be so." ”
Then he hurriedly comforted He Ningzhou, "Maybe I'm afraid that we will miss a lot of demon patrols if we fly over, and then we will lose the opportunity to know the clues of the demon leader, I also think this clue is much more important than rushing to the castle as soon as possible." ”
"Demon patrols?" The boy's face showed a trace of disdain, "It won't be worse than the fight between the demon brothers who came to us with the leader to compete before, so if you don't kill immediately, you can only stop fighting, or let you go to practice?" ”
Shen Xinghe again: "......"
She took a deep breath, "Okay, let me practice, but I kind of want to use you to practice now, what should I do?" ”
"You come," He Ningzhou really "didn't change his face", "If even you can beat me to death, we won't need to carry out this task." ”
Shen Xinghe was so angry that a ball of light smashed towards his head, and then, he didn't even see the slightest effect.
"Humph!"
She turned her face away from the boy.
The time they set off was eight o'clock in the morning, and the feeling of changing directions was no different, and they didn't see the demon castle that the fox said, and it was estimated that they would have to walk for a while.
After more than half an hour like this, Shen Xinghe sent a ball of light to the boy from time to time, although she didn't even make the other party frown, but she still felt very happy, and then heard the boy say: "Wait a minute, there is a demon coming." ”
"Where?" Shen Xinghe's ball of light was already in his hand, and he looked around when he heard the words.
Suddenly, a demon with a weapon appeared in front of them, and when he saw the two of them, he immediately said, "What people! ”
Shen Xinghe raised his hand and aimed the ball of light at him, and the demon clan immediately dodged, and the ball of light still hit his left shoulder fiercely!
"Humph!" Shen Xinghe clapped his hands happily and immediately held up the next ball of light, "Tell us where your leader is!" ”
The demon clan did not answer, but forcibly endured the pain in his arm and raised the gun in his hand to attack them, Shen Xinghe immediately sent out a ball of light, this time hitting his left leg, "Tell me where your leader is!" ”
The demon clan fell to the ground, but he still didn't answer, but forced himself to stand up, and this time Shen Xinghe's ball of light hit his arm again, "Where is your leader!" ”
This "torture" lasted for several minutes, and Shen Xinghe didn't count how many times he had beaten the demon clan, in short, he didn't tell the whereabouts of the leader until he disappeared.
Even Shen Xinghe couldn't help but feel a little "respectful", "Hero." ”
"Heroes what," the boy laughed, "is that clearly set up not to tell us okay?" ”
Shen Xinghe glared at him, "Do you think I don't know?" The current stinky boy is really annoying to talk about, not at all like when he was a child! ”
After speaking, she raised her feet and left, only to find after a while that the boy had not followed, she stopped and looked back, He Ningzhou was standing in place and looking at her, she couldn't help frowning, "What are you doing there, hurry up!" ”
The young man's expression was very calm, and he looked at her steadily, "Do you really like me when I was a child?" Would you still like to see him? ”
"......" Shen Xinghe almost blurted out, "Yes!" But she didn't say it, for some reason she just thought that the boy would do something after saying this, just like he had once cut his hand with a short sword because of one of his words.
