Chapter 30: He's a Weirdo
It was daytime now, but the forest was very dark, only a little sunlight shone on the ground through the sky tree overhead, Tang Jing took off the bow and crossbow and held it in his hand, stepping on the dead leaves under his feet to make a rustling sound, and walked towards the depths of the forest in all directions.
After stopping for an hour, Tang Jing called up the current map, her location was almost close to the center of the Moonlight Forest, and she wanted to open the teleportation point first.
This is a habit, every time you step on a map, you must first open a waypoint, which is also a habit that many people have, and no one wants to waste time on the road next time they come back.
Suddenly, with a bang, a rattan grazed her cheek and threw it over, Tang Jing was shocked, and took a few steps back, she looked in the direction of the rattan, only to know that she had stepped into the territory of the tree spirit.
This monster is good at camouflage, and no player wants to patronize it, because it can use many of its own rattans as attack weapons at the same time, and it is useless to compete with it.
As soon as the blow missed, another rattan whipped over, and she turned sideways slightly, and the rattan snapped directly to the ground, bringing up a dead leaf.
Tang Jing didn't want to waste time here, she bounced on the spot and stepped on the trunk of the tree in front of her, trying to use these branches as cover to avoid these annoying rattans.
The rattans stretched and stretched as freely as eyes, and since they went around the trunk of the tree and wrapped around her calves, the tiny barbs instantly pierced the skin and pierced into the flesh.
In an instant, black bubbles began to bubble up on her body, which was a sign of poisoning.
Tang Jing endured the pain and poured a bottle of Jiuhua Yulu Pill that she had bought in Qixiangju into her mouth, and the poisoned DBUFF on her body was only removed, she pulled out the dagger, and the knife in her hand was about to hit the rattan on her leg.
At this moment, there were three "sighs", and three rattans came from different directions at a very fast speed, wrapping around Tang Jing's waist and her left and right wrists respectively.
“……”
It's over...
The four rattans that were wrapped around her suddenly tightened, and the four tree spirits began to pull in their direction, Tang Jing's whole face was hanging in the air in large characters, and she watched her blood bar slowly fall, at this moment, she also experienced the mood of those characters who were about to be divided by five horses in the costume TV series.
Although Datang's system does not allow for a limb separation death, she was poisoned by 4 layers of poison, just like being cut open by someone to cut an artery and bled out, and after a few minutes, she would turn into a pile of graves.
Tang Jing had given up struggling, at this moment, she hoped that the tree spirit could give her a happy death, this trend of watching her blood bar slowly decline was really grinding.
Just as she closed her eyes and waited for death, suddenly, there were several fierce sword qi in the wind, "Boom..."
Bang...
The sound of the heavy object falling to the ground, Tang Jing was slammed to the ground, which originally made the tree spirit consume two-thirds of the blood bar, and this time it went straight to the bottom, she hurriedly poured a few bottles of red potion into her mouth, and finally pulled herself back from the brink of death.
She raised her eyes and saw that there was a person standing in front of her with a long sword in his hand, a blue and white pure yang, the other party was standing in the backlight, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he remembered the name, Lao Lin...
Ranked seventh on the personal list, the unparalleled elder in the world, Xuanyuan Wudao's friend, and the old forest who had eaten supper together in the Drunken Immortal Building.
Although the person in front of him barely opened his mouth that night, his powerful aura was difficult for people to ignore him.
Tang Jing got up and walked to a stop only three steps away from him, a smile on his lips, "Thank you!" ”
She didn't know if the other party still remembered herself, but she still politely stretched out her right hand, "I'm as quiet as water." ”
Lao Lin moved his gaze from her face to the fair-skinned slender hand, paused, and then slowly stretched out his hand and shook it gently, "Lao Lin." ”
The man in front of him has clear water chestnut features, and under the sword eyebrows, those dark and deep eyes are like a deep water, which can suck people in.
Tang Jing looked away and asked casually, "Why are you here?" She also didn't expect the other person to answer herself, because the man was notoriously silent and golden.
"Dig up herbs..."
It seems that the rumors of "......" cannot be fully believed.
Tang Jing pointed to the north, "I'm going to open the teleportation point first, goodbye!" ”
"Don't go."
"Huh?" Tang Jing looked back at him suspiciously.
Lao Lin's gaze looked past her in the direction of the teleportation point, and slowly spoke, "There is an ambush..."
Even if he doesn't read the forum, he knows what has been going on in the past few days, there are more than a dozen people at the teleportation point who are looking for plum blossoms, and their professions are all Mingjiao and Tangmen, who are good at assassination.
Tang Jing smacked his mouth, this person cherishes words like gold, and even speaks with a big pant, he is really a strange person.
Those who were ambushed, they didn't have to think about it to know that it was arranged by the Supreme Treasure, and the beam between them should have been formed by the robbery of the Black Mist Swamp BOSS that time, since the teleportation point can't go, then they can only find someone first.
"I'm looking for someone, what about you?" In the face of such ice cubes, she always had an awkward feeling.
"Who?"
Lao Lin's way of speaking is still as concise and clear as ever.
"An NPC named White Wind."
"White Wind," he lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "you come with me." ”
"You've seen it?" Tang Jing was overjoyed, she was considered to have gone out to meet a nobleman, right?
Lao Lin didn't speak, and walked to the southwest by himself.
Tang Jing was bored with herself, and closed her mouth in reality.
Neither of them is a person who talks a lot, and they get along well along the way, and no one cares about anyone.
Tang Jing followed behind quietly, curious in his heart that since the ice cube in front of him was so familiar with this place, where there were monsters and poisonous plants, he knew it, and he could safely take himself to avoid it.
"Here we are." Lao Lin suddenly stopped.
Tang Jing behind him didn't brake the car, and directly hit the tall back.
“……”
Tang Jing rubbed his nose, walked around the flesh wall in front of him, and looked around, there was only a small hill two people high, and there was nothing special about it.
Tang Jing looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Lao Lin didn't explain, but directly drew his long sword and walked to the hill to cut down those branches that were in the way, and then reached out and touched the stone wall, pressing a raised stone.
Boom, a crack slowly cracked in the stone wall, and the gap grew larger and larger, until it was enough for the three of them to walk side by side.
Tang Jing stared blankly at the change in front of him, this... High-tech!
Lao Lin still had a cold face, took out a torch from the package and lit it and walked to the entrance of the cave, then looked back at Tang Jing, and motioned for her to follow with his eyes.
Tang Jing retracted his thoughts and followed, and the two entered the cave.
The torch in Lao Lin's hand dispelled the darkness, and in the passage, Tang Jing began to look around, in fact, she could see clearly without a torch, because the desert giant scorpion's head had a 60% increase in night vision.
It seems to have been carved out by hand, not naturally, and some places are covered with moss, and many water droplets oozed from the moss, and these water droplets drip down the moss to the ground, making a ticking sound, "How did you find here?" ”
"Digging medicine..."
After getting along for a long time, Tang Jing can also find out the way the other party speaks, which should have been discovered when he was digging medicine.
"It's here!"
This time Tang Jing stopped in time, she didn't hit it, she poked her head out, it was a water curtain formed by a small waterfall, and a faint circle of light emanated around the water curtain, as mentioned before, this kind of aperture is the enchantment between the two maps, commonly known as the teleportation point.
There's a lot of stuff inside!
Tang Jing sighed, and then walked up and followed Lao Lin into the aperture.
As soon as the picture turned, you were greeted by a lush green field, with a stone path leading to a bamboo house in the distance, and flower beds on both sides of the path, and strangely enough, not a single flower bloomed in the flower beds.
Walking all the way, the surroundings were very quiet, there were no insects and birds, and not even a trace of wind could be felt, Tang Jing slowly frowned, she looked at the scene in front of her, it was as quiet as an oil painting that was frozen...
After a while, the two of them stood still in front of the bamboo house, the fence wall had collapsed in half, Tang Jing walked through the decadent courtyard, stretched out her hand and gently pushed open the bamboo door, with a long creak, the bamboo door was slowly pushed open, a gust of cold wind came to the face, and the dust accumulated for many years was also sucked into Tang Jing's nose with this wind, and she coughed several times.
Tang Jing covered her nose and looked here, the furniture was very complete, but it had not been popular for a long time, and it was all covered with a thick layer of dust, she reached out and wiped the dust off the bamboo row hanging on the wall, and the word "Baiju" was engraved on it, this should be the old residence of Bai Feng she was looking for.
It's a pity that there are no useful clues in the house.
Tang Jing walked out of the bamboo house, walked around the periphery, and finally found a small earthen bag in the flower garden in the backyard, she walked over a few steps, squatted down to check, and wondered if it would be the clothed mound that the shopkeeper Yan said, an ethereal sigh floated into her ears.
Tang Jing's hand pulling the dirt bag paused, and was about to turn around, but he remembered the soft sigh behind him, this time it was clearer than before.
Tang Jing had a bad premonition in her heart, and she stiffened herself to maintain this half-squatting posture, because she found that this sound was not made by the ice cube face!
"Who are you?"
“……”
The voice came from behind Tang Jing.
The exposed skin has goosebumps, there are obviously only two people here, she and Lao Lin, how can there be a third person's voice?
What the hell is that behind you? If the player follows them in, it is impossible for them not to find out, unless the opponent's strength is far superior to them!
Tang Jing's hand holding the bow and crossbow tightened, she stiffened her neck and turned around suddenly, and at the same time, a stainless steel arrow shot out with a "boom".
The arrow passed through the man's body and plunged into the flower garden in the distance, and unexpectedly, the amount of damage that the system should have prompted did not sound at this time.
Lao Lin over there heard the noise, walked over in three steps and asked, "What?" ”
Tang Jing ignored him, just frowned and looked at the woman in front of her, dressed in white, with long hair that was windless, her feet were half a foot off the ground floating in the air, and her body was still translucent.
This is... Soul NPCs?
Tang Jing stared at this woman with wide eyes, the dirt bag behind her, could it be the soul body in front of her? opened his mouth, "You..."
"Can you see me?" The Soul NPC interrupted her and suddenly floated forward.
The sudden movement of the soul body, Tang Jing was frightened and took a few steps back, although she was just data, but her pale face was still a little crazy...
Lao Lin on the side saw Tang Jing's strange movements, and said with some puzzlement, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Tang Jing's eyes swayed back and forth between the soul body and Lao Lin, such a big hanging soul body was next to him, since he was expressionless, could it be, "You can't see her?" ”
"See what?" Lao Lin opened his mouth suspiciously.
Tang Jing thought, maybe only the person who received the relevant task could see this soul body, she stretched out her finger and pointed, "There is a soul NPC here..."
“……”
Lao Lin looked in the direction she pointed, it was empty, there was nothing, but Datang was known as the second world, what strange things would be there, he was not an eventful person, and he didn't ask, "I'm leaving." ”
She's been looking for something, and there's no need for her to stay here.
Tang Jing opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know how to speak, and finally only said, "Thank you!" ”
Lao Lin nodded, turned around and strode away.
