Chapter 217: True Courage
Gong Yuling simply gave Guan Yasheng medicine, and the group flew all the way back to the camp.
"How's it going, nothing happened, right?" Cheng Lingsu greeted him from afar and looked at Gong Yuling worriedly.
She didn't sleep all night, and stayed in front of Guan Wenfei's bed to take care of them, waiting for them to come back.
Guan Yasheng got off the plane behind Gong Yuling, and when he saw the dark circles under her eyes, he was very moved, and then looked at her worried, and couldn't help but tease: "What's wrong?" Didn't they go to save me? Cheng Lingsu, why are you so eccentric? ”
Hearing her voice, Cheng Lingsu's eyes dodged, and he coughed lightly and looked over there.
"Don't worry, I've heard what they said, you're just as smart without your abilities, if it weren't for you, I might have died."
Guan Yasheng smiled gratefully and walked into Guan Wenfei's room with everyone.
Guan Wenfei was injured for her, and Cheng Yuan didn't have any affection when he started, I don't know what happened now.
In the room, Guan Wenfei leaned on the head of the bed with a book, and when he saw Guan Yasheng, he closed the book.
"Brother, are you okay?" Sekiya walked over quickly.
Guan Wenfei looked her up and down, and stopped when he saw the bruise on her neck, with a faint anger between his eyebrows.
"You don't have to worry about me, my ability is still there, I can't die. It's you, what's wrong with your neck? Did Cheng Yuan do it? ”
Along the way, her neck has been noticed.
Guan Yasheng subconsciously raised his hand and touched the sore place on his neck, and said, "It's okay, Gu Xingpei won't let me have an accident." ”
"You dare to mention him! He's already done it to you that night! ”
Guan Wenfei wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Cheng Lingsu's raised voice.
"Wen Fei!"
Cheng Lingsu glanced at him, motioned him not to continue, turned his head to look at everyone, and changed the topic: "The top priority now is to get the map before Cheng Yuan." ”
"Yayoi, how many doors did you take him to?" Gong Yuling took the opportunity to ask.
"The tenth way." Guan Yasheng replied, "Gong Yuling's previous words are a great deterrent to him, he doesn't dare to risk Gu Xingpei's ability, he will definitely spend time thinking of other methods." ”
Cheng Yuan would be in such a hurry to transform Gu Xingpei, then Gu Xingpei must have a different meaning to him, he would not let Gu Xingpei risk opening the door.
Speaking of this, Guan Yasheng looked at Gong Yuling seriously, "Thank you." ”
Gong Yuling smiled: "Thank you, if I don't lie to him, he can take Gu Xingpei to break in tonight, and I will also buy time for us." ”
Sekiya nodded, and said, "Also, I think I should know how to open the door in the back." ”
Hearing this, everyone looked at it together.
Guan Yasheng will be kidnapped by Cheng Yuan, and there are many reasons why she will open the door.
"We've opened sixteen doors, and two more. No one had ever opened those two doors, but the patriarch had given us enough hints. Sekiya said slowly, his gaze wandering between the people.
"The patriarch said that most of the people in the clan were timid and did not dare to break into the forbidden land, but when we went that day, I noticed that the patriarch was very skilled when opening the mechanism, which shows that there are not a few people in the clan who are curious and trying to break through, but no one has the courage to open the seventeen doors that no one has touched."
"I speculate that the seventeenth gate needs a man of courage."
Everyone listened very attentively, and when they heard this, some people showed puzzled looks.
"You mean, the patriarch is secretly helping us get the map, so what's in it for him?"
According to Sekiyama, the patriarch would even help the curious people in the clan to enter the forbidden land, and now even outsiders of unknown origin can let them in without asking for a reason.
What is the patriarch's picture?
"I don't know about that, but he did give us a hint and we can only try it." Sekiya looked at the few people in front of him, "What do you think?" ”
"What else, if we hesitate any longer, Cheng Yuan may have already thought of a way, if he gets the map, the consequences will be unimaginable." Arbor was noncommittal.
For a moment, there was silence in the room.
It is unknown whether the patriarch's hint is true or not, and if he just said it casually, then they might have died in vain.
But if they can't even grasp this bit of hope, what will they do to fight with Cheng Yuan.
"Okay, don't you just have courage? I'll go, I can't die anyway. After a while, Guan Wenfei said in a deep voice, "I believe in Yayoi." ”
The silence was broken, and when everyone heard this, they subconsciously looked at each other.
Does that mean courage? Just not afraid of death? If this is really the case, there are many people in the clan who are not afraid of death.
"Why, you don't believe me?" Guan Wenfei noticed their hesitation and asked with a twisted eyebrow.
"Is there a better candidate but me? I am immortal, if I open the door and there is danger, I can still come out alive, what about you, if something goes wrong, who can afford the consequences? ”
Several people looked at each other, and had to admit that what Guan Wenfei said made some sense.
His ability gave him enough confidence to be the first to try.
"Not really." Just when everyone hesitated, Sekiya opened his mouth to break the deadlock.
For a moment, everyone's eyes gathered.
"Not being afraid of death can't mean anything, I don't mean anything else, but brother, you are definitely not the one who can open the seventeenth door."
Guan Yasheng suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Qiao Mu and Su Lime.
Facing her gaze, Qiao Mu smiled with relief: "It's time for us to contribute, I haven't done anything along the way, and I feel quite embarrassed." ”
He had always had a hunch that he would need him this time, but he didn't expect it to be here, to be honest, Qiao Mu didn't think he was a person with courage.
"I'm thinking the same as Yayoi." Cheng Lingsu, as an existence like a military advisor, spoke at the right time, "Everyone knows how Qiao Mu and Su Qinglime have come over for so many years, they can almost foresee the future, and they can still face danger when they foresee it, who can do this?" ”
What's more, over the years, Qiao Mu and Su Qinglime have not been less regarded by others, and if they were other people, they couldn't bear to choose a different path, but they could still support each other to get to the present.
"I'm sorry." Guan Yasheng lowered his eyes, a little apologetic.
However, the person concerned didn't feel it at all, but comforted people with a big grin.
"What apologies? Who of the seven of us can not pay this way? Since you agree with both of us, you have to trust us! Qiao Mu looked at Su Lime with a smile, "Besides, according to what Lime can see, we will die together." ”
Su Qinglime didn't speak, just nodded silently in agreement.
The cracker of the seventeenth gate was thus decided, and what was behind the door was still unknown, and they did not even know how to open it.
"Okay, the eighteenth door, Yayoi, how do you open it." Gong Yuling broke the somewhat sad atmosphere and pushed the conversation to the next stage.
Guan Yasheng was stunned for a moment, and shook his head hesitantly: "Don't open it yet." ”
Everyone's concerns are not unreasonable, it is best to try the seventeenth gate first, and if there is no problem, then see how the eighteenth gate should be opened.
Gong Yuling liked her for so long, and saw her concerns at a glance, and was silent for a while, without opening her mouth to hit morale.
At the same time, Cheng Yuan's rare emotions on the isolated island leaked out.
"Let her run? How did they find here! ”
Gu Xingpei naturally didn't answer his words, just stood aside expressionlessly, his eyes unfocused.
"Heh, they forced me, I wanted to get the map in a more modest way." Cheng Yuan's face was gloomy, he suddenly turned around and walked towards the sea, and raised his voice to order Gu Xingpei behind him, "Keep up, without Guan Yayoi, I can get the map as well." ”
Walking all the way to the boat, Cheng Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at a place in the corner of the boat.
As far as he could see, a small red dot kept flickering.
"What is this?" He clenched his fingers as the glowing red machine jerked away from the ship and flew into his hands.
"Locator." Hit carefully
After measuring it, Cheng Yuan tightened his fingers, and the machine instantly turned into ashes, "Good Cheng Lingsu, use what I taught to deal with me." ”
After staring at the ship for a long time, Cheng Yuan turned around unhappily and changed his course.
Admittedly, he wasn't capable enough to accurately detect an inanimate thing.
Taking the spare boat to the edge of the forbidden land, Cheng Yuan took Gu Xingpei and walked in the opposite direction, not far from them, was the tribe's village.
……
"Gong Yuling! Oh no! We've been fenced off by tribesmen! ”
They were recuperating in their rooms when suddenly a child from the scientific research team rushed to Gong Yuling's door.
One sentence disturbed a group of people, and everyone opened the door to see.
As he said, around their dormitory, there was already a bustling circle of people, all of them filled with righteous indignation.
"Outlander! Give back my son! ”
"Give back my daughter!"
"What about my child? Don't you even spare your children! ”
……
A group of people questioned them in a tongue-in-cheek manner, and they were confused.
What does it have to do with the fact that their children are lost?
"Calm down, everyone, talk slowly!"
Guan Yasheng wanted to come out, but was protected by Gong Yuling, and at the same time asked them about their intentions.
"Less nonsense! We're living well on the island, but after you came, all sorts of strange things started to happen, get out of our tribe! ”
A young man from the tribe squeezed in from behind and expressed his opinion simply and clearly - let the scientific research team leave the tribe as a whole.
He knew that the outsiders could not understand their language, so he deliberately slowed down his speech, but the dissatisfaction between the words did not diminish in the slightest.
After staying here for so many days, which of the seven sons is not a genius figure, simple communication has long been no problem.
"I'm sorry, but I can assure you that what you're talking about has nothing to do with us, and if you need help, I think we'll be happy to help." Gong Yuling twisted his eyebrows and refused.
I haven't gotten the map yet, so what's the matter with just leaving.
"Help? Are there any outsiders on this island but you? Our clan lives well, will it still be the clansmen who kill each other? "The young people were clearly their representatives, and they repeatedly conveyed their message to the people.
