Chapter 402: Venture Away
After a while, the sun was not as hot as it was at noon, but the heat was still a little high.
Under the scorching sun, the two quickly left the Yong'an City Gate.
Time was pressing, and Nan Fengling and Qiao Shuyu discussed hurrying for several days.
When I couldn't find an inn at night, I slept in the wilderness and ate dry food bought on the road.
Rushing for days, plus he had been injured before, along the way, even if Nanfeng Ling was very hungry, he couldn't eat much.
But for Xiao Ying's sake, she said nothing and swallowed everything back into her stomach.
Waiting for Qiao Shuyu at night, she would get up and run to a corner to spit sour water.
In the past few days, she has only drunk a small amount of water and dry food, and her lips have been chapped to the point of breaking skin.
Nan Fengling wiped the bitter water from the corner of his mouth and sat on the ground with his back against the trunk of the tree.
"You're stronger than I thought you would." Qiao Shuyu, who was asleep, didn't know when he had gotten up, and suddenly stood in front of Nanfeng Ling.
Nan Fengling panicked and cleaned up his embarrassed appearance and stood up from the ground, "Why are you up?" ”
Her voice couldn't hide her tiredness.
"I've always slept lightly, and I have to keep an eye on any movement to ensure your safety."
"You deserve a good rest."
"Eat it, and you won't be so bad." Qiao Shuyu conjured a pill from his hand and handed it to Nanfeng Ling.
Nanfeng Ling was stunned, reached out to take it, and put it in his mouth, "Thank you." ”
"You didn't even ask me what it was, aren't you afraid it's poison?"
"Do you want me dead? For Lin Wan's revenge? Do you think I owe her? ”
"Do you think you owe Lin Wan?"
"I don't owe her anything, it was an accident to know Xiao Ying."
"If I say, you only have ten days left, are you afraid?"
"Can we get back to Yong'an in ten days?" Nan Fengling grabbed Qiao Shuyu's sleeve.
"Silly girl, that's just a sedative, not a poison."
The sky was full of stars.
Nan Fengling gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "It's good that it's not poison." ”
"Xiao Ying is not the only good man in the world."
"You don't understand."
"I don't understand? What do I not understand? Qiao Shuyu was angry, and before Nan Fengling could reply, he turned around and returned to the trunk of the tree where he had been resting and continued to close his eyes and rest.
Seeing that Qiao Shuyu was unwilling to deal with her.
Nanfeng Ling also found a tree trunk and sat down.
But she couldn't sleep, she raised her eyes and looked at the bright moon in the sky, and her thoughts drifted a little away.
In this silent night, everyone has their own thoughts.
In the early morning of the next day, Nanfeng Ling woke up Qiao Shuyu and held a bunch of wild fruits in his hand.
"Early in the morning, where are you going? There are many wild beasts in the barren mountains and mountains here, if you let the beasts eat them, Xiao Ying will not let me go. ”
"I'll pick wild fruits to quench your thirst."
"I have wine, and I don't scarce your wild fruits."
"Still angry about what happened last night?"
Qiao Shuyu snorted lightly and did not reply.
The morning sun sprinkled through the dense branches and leaves, and the mottled shadows of the trees were printed on Qiao Shuyu's tightened eyebrows.
Nan Fengling looked at Qiao Shuyu apologetically, he really didn't know what to do.
"Don't be angry, go back to Yong'an, I will definitely repay you well."
Qiao Shuyu glanced at Nan Fengling, "I've heard this sentence no less than ten times. ”
"Just listen to it again, and I won't hide from you again."
"You mean what you say."
"Of course."
"Do you still want to eat this wild fruit?"
"Eat."
Qiao Shuyu reached out and took a few.
After eating wild fruits, the two continued on their way.
The two hurried for days and nearly half a month to reach Nishizawa.
Before entering the mountain, Qiao Shuyu wanted to find a local man to lead the way for them.
But when every man he found heard that they were going to Chifeng Mountain, they shook their heads and waved their hands to refuse.
There is a small village at the foot of Chifeng Mountain.
Since no one was willing to lead the way for them, Qiao Shuyu had to go to this village first to inquire about some news about Yuexian Grass and check the reality of this Chifeng Mountain.
After several twists and turns, Qiao Shuyu finally bought a detailed mountain distribution map of Chifeng Mountain in the hands of an old man.
Those who come to the village to inquire about the news have always come to ask about Yuexiancao.
Xu saw that Qiao Shuyu was generous, and the old man also told him another news about Yuexian grass.
Everyone knows that the moon grass is in Chifeng Mountain, but they don't know that the moon grass only appears at night when the bright moon appears.
Under the bright moon illumination, the moon grass will emit a bright white light, and it only grows on the edge of the cliff.
The old man's clear information provided Qiao Shuyu with a lot of use to find the moon grass.
As soon as he left the village, he went to prepare ropes and torches.
When everything was ready, he went back to find Nanfeng Ling, and waited until it was completely dark, and then he entered the mountain together according to the distribution map.
Night is the time of wild beasts, and it is even more poisonous and miasma-blind.
So before entering the mountain, they took a special antidote pill.
Walking in the mountains and forests at night is a dangerous place that cannot be estimated.
The environment is special, and he didn't dare to play torches, but fortunately, Qiao Shuyu brought the night pearl.
Qiao Shuyu tied Nanfeng Ling's wrist with a thin red rope to prevent her from getting lost.
Xu is the reason why people often go to Chifeng Mountain to look for the moon and grass, and Chifeng Mountain is overgrown and barren without imagination.
Qiao Shuyu walked at the forefront, and Nan Fengling followed behind him.
On a quiet night, the dark mountain road was only the sound of the footsteps of two people.
The further you go into the mountains, the wider your view becomes.
Each of the trees seems to have a history of 100 years.
Qiao Shuyu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
The Nanfeng Spirit who was following behind him also stood vigilantly.
There was no sound of footsteps, and only the sound of heartbeats was left in this quiet surrounding.
Qiao Shuyu stood and took a closer look, and found that not far in front of them, a little firefly was flying.
"What's that?" Nan Fengling asked Qiao Shuyu.
"It's a little bit further to see what it is." Qiao Shuyu stepped forward and continued to walk forward.
The two of them walked to the little firefly and found that it was a firefly flying.
"It smells so good." Standing in the fireflies, Nanfeng Ling suddenly spoke.
The grass and trees have a little fragrance of flowers, and they smell very good anyway.
"There's still light over there." Nan Fengling pointed to the white light behind him, and suddenly rushed towards the white light over there.
"South Wind Spirit." Qiao Shuyu wanted to call her to stop, but Nan Fengling had already torn off the red rope and ran away alone.
Seeing Nan Fengling disappear into the night, Qiao Shuyu followed with a anxious expression.
Nanfeng Ling followed the white light and ran forward.
Qiao Shuyu shouted after her, his heart had already risen to his throat, "Nanfeng Ling, don't run so fast." ”
Listening to Qiao Shuyu, the moon grass will shine under the moonlight, and Nanfeng Ling has no time to take care of anything else at this moment.
Getting closer and closer to that white light, Nanfeng Ling's footsteps finally slowed down.
Nanfeng Ling brought the Night Pearl closer to the glowing grass, only to find that in front of the grass was a cliff.
The cliff was dark and bottomless, and the frightened south wind spirit retreated again and again.
The one in front of him may be the Yuexian grass that can save Xiao Ying, Nanfeng Ling suppressed his fear and took a few steps forward.
"South Wind Spirit." Qiao Shuyu caught up and shouted softly.
