87 Fragments of Spirit Orbs
Lin Shuang and Yan Zhi were extremely careful to pay attention to their surroundings along the way, for fear of stepping into some trap
Caitou still happily followed the crested falcon, with no intention of guarding against it at all
Yan Zhi frowned and whispered to Lin Shuang: "We are getting farther and farther away from the rest place of the team, and it is not a way to follow like this."
Lin Shuang turned his head sideways: "But if you don't understand the reason why this crested falcon can speak, I'm unwilling, besides, we've all followed here, do you want to give up halfway?" β
She glanced at the two crested falcons flying in front of them, and said, "Even if we go back now, Caitou will still sneak over next time, if we find out the situation this time, at least we will have an explanation for Caitou."
Yan Zhi naturally couldn't do anything about her, sighed, and stopped talking
In order to accommodate their speed, the crested falcon did not fly fast, and after more than half an hour, it stopped on a cliff halfway up a mountain peak and said to Lin Shuang and Yan Zhi: "You wait here"
After that, he got into a crack in the cliff, and Caitou just wanted to follow in, but Lin Shuang hurriedly stopped it: "Caitou, don't go in yet, just wait for it to come out."
Caitou looked at the crack, then at Lin Shuang, after all, he couldn't hold back the thought of wanting to know more about the crested falcon, and lowered his head and quickly got into it
"Jackpot! Jackpot! You come out for meγγγγ β
Lin Shuang was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, but unfortunately the color head had already disappeared behind the crack
Yan Zhi took a few steps forward and looked around, it was all smooth cliffs, even if they wanted to, they had no choice but to stand under the cliffs and wait
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the color head to drill out, and then rushed straight down and flew onto Lin Shuang's shoulder
The crested falcon followed, flew in front of Yan Zhi, and said, "Stretch out your hand"
Although Yan Zhi was full of doubts, he still stretched out his hand and spread his palm
The crested falcon flew above his palm, and as soon as its claws loosened, a crystal clear object fell into the palm of his hand
Lin Shuang was about to teach Cai Tou a lesson, when the corner of his eye swept to the shining thing in Yan Zhi's hand, and he leaned over curiously: "What is this?" β
Yan Zhi picked up the luminous object in his palm, looked at it carefully, and was a little unsure: "It looks like a fragment of the Spirit Storing Beadγγγγγ β
"Soul Beads? What is that? β
Lin Shuang became more and more curious, and took the thing in Yan Zhi's hand: "Transparent jade?" This kind of jade is rare."
Yan Zhi looked at the crested falcon and asked, "Where did you get this?" Is it just this little piece? Or is it a round sphere in itself, and you broke it? β
The crested falcon flapped its wings, and there was obvious confusion in its eyes: "This is a round thing that I accidentally picked up from the ground a long time ago, when I was still in the clan."
"And then? How did it crumble? β
Yan Zhi asked
"I don't know, I've been keeping it in my nest, and it's been fine, who knows, just a few months ago, when I went out to look for food, explosions sounded one after another around me, and this thing in my nest suddenly exploded, and killed a lot of young falcons in our group.
The crested falcon lowered its head sadly, and blamed itself: "I didn't know that this thing would kill so many companions, I just saw it shining in the sun, and I was curious, so I picked it up and put it in the nest to look good, if I had knownγγγγγ I... I... β
Yan Zhi and Lin Shuang glanced at each other and understood each other's thoughts, the earth movement a few months ago, could it be related to this thing?
Yan Zhi took the fragment in his hand, this is almost certainly the Soul Bead, but no one else should be able to make the Soul Bead except for our Constant Realm, but how could it appear here? And why did it explode?
"Don't be sad, I know you didn't mean to hurt your people, it's just that this thing, no one expected it to explode, right?γγγγ And then? What happened again? Or does this thing have anything to do with how you speak? β
Lin Shuang hadn't forgotten that the main purpose of their follow-up was to figure out why it was able to speak
"Soon after I brought this thing back to the nest, I felt that there was gradually a trace of warm air flow in my body, and then there were more and more air currents, and on the day of the earth movement, the air flow almost didn't blow my body, and I couldn't stand it anymore and rolled all over the ground, and after a few hours of pain, I found that I couldn't make a sound like a member of the group, but spoke the same words as the humans I had seen at the bottom of the mountain."
The crested falcon was very depressed: "The explosion of this ball I brought back was hated by the casualties caused by the clan, and later I found that I couldn't even scream, and I thought that I was an outlier in the crested falcon, they... So he threw me out, and when I was leaving, I brought this out to remind myself of what a sin I had committed. β
"You're not an anomaly, I'm just like you!"
Caitou wanted to comfort the crested falcon in a daze, but it didn't appreciate it at all: "You are different from me, you were raised by humans, I, I am, my parents don't want me anymore... β
Seeing this, Lin Shuang was very distressed, it was alone, could it live well?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but say softly: "You can follow us, just like Caitou, we will treat you as if you were a relative."
Yan Zhi held the fragment of the Soul Bead in his hand, it was very likely that it had something to do with the ground movement in the Constant Realm, and they had to rush back to the resting place as soon as possible to inform Lu Yan
ββββ
"How's it going, it's all right in the east, right?"
After Qi Ning'an and the others dealt with those hairy apes, they returned to the place where they had just gathered, and when they saw that Lu Kongkong and the others had already returned, they spoke
Lu Kongkong paid attention to it, but didn't find any injuries in Qi Ning'an, and nodded and said, "It's okay, it's all solved."
Hou Mingshi frowned: "The boundary guard said that two wild boars were found at the beginning, but when the clouded leopard retreated, they didn't appear again, here, will there be a problem?" β
"It's okay, let's rest and recuperate, and set off in two hours, take a look around first, and get rid of those threatening creatures first, so that the Zelin realm should not be infested for the time being."
After Lu Kongkong finished speaking, he thought about it again, and a rare look of hesitation appeared on his face
Just when he was hesitating, Qi Ning'an suddenly said to Hou Mingshi: "Uncle Hou, now that there are so few people in the Zelin Realm, I have a proposal, can you see if it is feasible?" β
"You say"
"Hengjie because of the ground movement, all the ground has been cracked, and the terrain is very unstable, we are looking for a suitable place to live, and Zelin Realm in the ground movement, many people have lost their relatives and friends, I think, it is better to let some people in Hengjie move to Zelin Realm, which can not only help Zelin Realm increase some popularity, but also allow them to support each other, and get out of the grief of losing their relatives faster, what do you think?"
Qi Ning'an said what he thought in his heart in one breath, and Lu Kongkong looked at her in surprise, he was also thinking about this matter just now, and he was afraid that if he brought it up, Hou Mingshi would disagree, so he was a little hesitant
It seemed that Ning An was thinking of going with him, Lu Kongkong's cold and hard face softened, and Qi Ning'an's eyes softened
After listening to Qi Ning'an's words, Hou Mingshi agreed: "That's naturally a good thing, I warmly welcome the people of the Heng Realm to move over, as long as they don't dislike it, I believe that our Zelin Realm will soon regain its former vitality."
Lin Le and the others showed a smile of joy, there was a ready-made small world for the clansmen to live in, which was really great news for them
"Then without further ado, I'll let Ah Bai bring the news back to the Heng Realm, Ah Bai, huh? What about Bai? β
Qi Ning'an shouted a few more times, but never saw Ah Bai respond, everyone looked around, but Ah Bai was still nowhere to be seen
"Oh no, I didn't see Ah Bai when I was fighting just now, could it have been hurt by those creatures?"
Qi Ning'an screamed in fear: "It won't be captured by those creatures, right?" β
"Probably not, when we were just about to end the battle, I saw it in the trees on the periphery, I don't know what it was looking at"
One of the walkers said, "Could it be that it found something interesting and forgot to come back?" β
Lin Le interjected, which attracted Qi Ning'an's attention: "It's possible, I have to go find it, it's not necessarily safe outside."
Lu Kongkong saw that Qi Ning'an was about to go west with his feet raised, and hurriedly grabbed her: "I'll go with you"
"Uncle Hou, please make some room for our people to rest, and Ning An and I will go and find Ah Bai"
Hou Mingshi happily agreed, and asked with concern: "Do you want me to ask the realm guards to help you find it too?" They are familiar with their surroundings and easy to find"
"That's the best, thank you Uncle Hou"
Qi Ning'an said gratefully, Hou Mingshi blew a whistle, summoned a boundary guard, and gave it a few orders, and the boundary guard passed on the order to find Ah Bai
"Let's go, I'll go to the west with you."
Lu Kongkong knew that Qi Ning'an attached great importance to Ah Bai, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he picked up Qi Ning'an and left
Walking to the place where the battle had just ended, although the body of the hairy ape had already been disposed of by the boundary guards, the smell of blood in the air still made the two of them frown subconsciously
Lu Kongkong clenched Qi Ning'an's hand, turned around and said: "Next time there is such a battle, you must follow me, otherwise I will not worry."
"What's not to worry about, my current strength may not be inferior to yours, besides, I still have a spirit array, this is a lethality that you can't match, follow you, I won't be able to exercise"
Qi Ningan pouted and protested dissatisfiedly
Lu Kongkong stretched out his hand and flicked it on her forehead: "Is it wrong for me to care about you?" β
"It's right to care, if you underestimate me, you're wrong"
Qi Ning'an shook his arm: "Don't worry so much, you see that along the way, which battle did I not protect myself well?" On the contrary, it is you who only care about killing the enemy, and do not care about your own safety."
Lu Kongkong's ears moved, he lowered his head towards her, and whispered: "There are creatures in ambush in front of you, be careful"
