Chapter 298: The Situation in the Back Mountain
This whole night, Lan Yao was roasting meat, and at the same time worried about the situation on his mother's side, so he was absent-minded.
Mengxiao and a few people knew about Lan Yao's situation, and they also paid attention to the changes in the back mountain.
"Otherwise, I'll go to the back mountain to have a look." Meng Xiao saw that Lan Yao was really worried, so he spoke.
"Okay, then you can go and help me take a look." Lan Yao raised her eyes, looking at the worry on Mengxiao's face, and her heart softened a little.
She stretched out her hand and shook Mengxiao's hand, and earnestly advised, "You pay attention to safety." ”
"Hmm." Meng Xiao bowed his head, and left this place while everyone was not paying attention, and headed towards the back mountain.
"What are you doing with Mengxiao?" Emperor Yan was still wearing the fox mask, he was not familiar with the others, he had been leaning against the wall beside him, not eating anything, just quietly looking at Lan Yao, with his tender eyes.
So he was able to find out Mengxiao's movements for the first time, he walked a few steps quickly, came to Lan Yao's side, and asked softly.
"He's gone to the back mountain." Lan Yao didn't plan to hide it, and told the emperor directly.
"Sister, I'll go find him." After Di Yan finished speaking, he just wanted to take a step, but was grabbed by Lan Yao, he turned his head to look at Lan Yao's face, and he saw the worry in her eyes.
The cyan curling eyebrows were filled with sadness, "Don't go, Mengxiao alone and my mother are enough to deal with, it's rare for them to be so happy tonight, your sudden departure from the table will attract suspicion." ”
"Sister, I am originally from the underworld, and they will not care so much about my whereabouts." There was a smile in the emperor's tone, and his beautiful eyes were full of reflections.
"But if my mother and her see you, I'm afraid she will ······" Lan Yao's brows furrowed slightly, she was indeed afraid that her mother would be displeased when she saw the emperor.
When the time came, before he finished dealing with the situation in the back mountain, his own people pinched it first.
Regarding the emperor, she has not had time to tell her mother.
"It's okay, I have a mask~" After Di Yan finished speaking, he gently pulled Lan Yao's little hand away and followed the direction of Mengxiao's departure.
The departure of these two people did not set off too much turmoil, and everyone was smiling, completely unaware of the situation in the back mountain.
And Mo Bai has been closely following Lan Yao's side, silently accompaniing.
Lan Yao was worried, and he roasted all kinds of barbecued meat in a complicated mood, and finally everyone was satisfied, and in Lan Yao's words, he returned to his room.
Lan Yao brought his conscience back to his side room, coaxed him to sleep, and then pushed open the door of the side room and walked out.
Outside the door, the clear glow of the moonlight sprinkled the land, the shadows of the trees swayed, and butterflies shuttled between the flowers.
Under the moon, there was a man standing.
The man was dressed in a white robe, his long inky hair spread out like splashing ink, his eyes were warm, and his side face was delicate and moving.
"Mo Bai?" Lan Yao spoke up and called out the man's name.
Mo Bai was obviously waiting for her here, he heard Lan Yao's voice, and looked at her sideways, still with warmth in his eyes.
"Let's go." Mo Bai stretched out his hand and smiled softly at Lan Yao.
"Let's go?" Lan Yao raised his eyebrows and looked at Mo Bai's actions suspiciously.
"I know you're going to find them, and your temperament won't be able to sleep peacefully, so I'll go with you." There was tenderness in his inky white eyes, and he seemed to have seen everything.
"Okay." Lan Yao really wanted to wait for everyone to fall asleep at the beginning, so she went to the back mountain alone to see the situation, and now that Mo Bai found out about her movements, she naturally couldn't deny it.
In this way, Mo Bai and Lan Yao went to the back mountain together.
As they flew through the air, they found that the closer they got to the back mountain, the more silent they became.
On weekdays, there will always be some small animals or clansmen coming to pick grass in this back mountain, but today this back mountain seems to be completely blocked, and even the wind can't pass through.
"It's unexpected, it's smoky ahead, it's not easy for us to fly to observe the situation, let's go down first." Mo Bai approached Lan Yao's side and said to her softly.
"Hmm." Lan Yao took a closer look at the surrounding situation, and indeed the situation of the black smoke was very eye-catching, almost enveloping the entire back mountain, if they insisted on choosing to fly, they were afraid that they would get lost in the black smoke.
The two of them slowly flew down from mid-air, Lan Yao frowned, and was about to walk away, but Mo Bai grabbed her soft little hand, "I'm afraid that the black smoke will be big in a while, and we will be separated." ”
Lan Yao knew Mo Bai's intentions, so she also let her lead, and the two walked side by side.
She turned her face sideways to look at her inky white face, and countless images flew through her mind.
When they were still in the human world, half of Mo Bai's soul was incarnated as her senior brother Mo Rong, and the other half was the divine doctor Mo Bai, who took care of her in every way.
After these two halves of the soul merged into one, she found that the one in front of her was a little gentle, and at the same time had her own control, and had exquisite requirements for life, which was a real Mobai.
But she woke up from her slumber, and Mo Bai stopped calling her junior sister.
Maybe at first he called her junior sister, but it was just to emphasize to her what happened in the world, afraid that she would forget him, afraid that she would no longer love him.
Now that he knew she had him in her heart, he stopped calling her that.
"Young, although you look at me, I'm very happy, but the situation is critical at the moment, you better pay attention to the situation around you first." Mo Bai said with a blushing face and a heartbeat, he always knew that Lan Yao's gaze lingered on his body, and his mood was a little happier.
Lan Yao's face turned red when Mo Bai said this, and he hurriedly began to check the surrounding situation.
The whole back mountain was completely enveloped in black smoke, and this smoke was not as aggressive as Lan Yao had encountered in the forest before, they walked in it without hindrance, breathing freely, and there was nothing wrong with it.
There is no case of corrosion of the herbs in the back mountain.
The only difference is that it is quiet, very quiet.
"Mengxiao, Emperor, Mother, Third Uncle, Third Aunt." Lan Yao tried to call them, but there was no response.
It was so strange that Lan Yao couldn't even feel their breath.
"I'm afraid that this black smoke can isolate everything, and we don't think we can get out now, so we have to find a way to find them." Mo Bai looked at the black smoke billowing out, he just sensed the way back, and found that the black smoke behind him was blocked by those black smokes, and the road that should have been very clear could no longer be found.
And all around them there was only fog.
All you can see is the land beneath your feet.
"I'll try to split the smoke with aura." Lan Yao injected aura into her other hand, and the aura gradually converged into a ball of light, which she threw out.
This ball of light mixed with divine power was like a squib, and it was caught up in the smoke without setting off a single wave.
A hint of surprise crossed Lan Yao's eyes, she had never seen the current situation.
These black gases do not actively attack people, they just surround the surroundings, so that they can't see the situation around them clearly, and they can't hear any sound.
"It doesn't seem like so." Seeing this situation, Mo Bai no longer planned to use immortal power, and now the best way is to preserve the spiritual power in his body sufficiently, but he is afraid that when he encounters an emergency, he will be caught off guard.
"It looks like I'm going to have to walk on my legs." Lan Yao took his hand back and spoke.
"See if your space-time rift works." Mo Bai suddenly turned his face sideways, looked at Lan Yao gently, and asked such a question.
"Temporal rift?" Lan Yao raised his eyebrows with a hint of puzzlement, but he still listened to Mo Bai's words, and his fingers swiped in the air.
Her slender fingers streaked a beautiful trail in the air, and the rift in time and space that belonged to her stored everything seemed to be out of order, and there was no movement at all.
"Do you mean ······?" Lan Yao's pupils dilated slightly.
"That's right, in this thick smoke, I'm afraid that we can't use any medium, including the space-time rift, the acceptance of rings, and the summoning of spirit beasts hidden in the body." Mo Bai is just a short period of time, and he can see the doorway.
"So what is this smoke?" Lan Yao fell into deep thought.
"I don't know." Mo Bai also didn't know anything about it.
The two fell silent, holding hands and walking side by side, aimlessly, and they didn't know when they would meet them.
An hour later, Lan Yao and the others still did not meet Mengxiao and the others, they couldn't see the surrounding scenery clearly, as if they were standing still.
Lan Yao opened his mouth: "Could it be, we've been going around in circles all the time, right?" ”
Mo Bai chuckled, his fingers brushed his long hair that was a little messy, his steps were brisk, as expensive as usual, "No, look at the herbs under your feet, I'm afraid that we are now halfway up the back mountain." ”
Lan Yao listened to Mo Bai's suggestion and lowered his eyes and looked down.
That's right, the place where they entered the mountain just now were some ordinary ancient trees and grasses, etc., but the closer they got to the mountain, the more advanced the medicinal herbs became.
Generally, those that grow in the middle of the mountain are slightly advanced medicinal materials such as Ganoderma lucidum and butterfly fairy grass.
"Where do you think Mengxiao will be?" Lan Yaoyanbo turned slightly, and she asked.
"What do you think?" Mo Bai threw this question to Lan Yao, and there was a hint of banter in his eyes, as if he wanted to see Lan Yao make a fool of himself.
Lan Yao's cold eyes turned to the front, and her lips opened lightly: "I don't know about the others, but Mengxiao must be on the top of the mountain." ”
"Why are you so sure?" Mo Bai lowered his eyes, and suddenly saw that the snow-white boots were stained with some dirt, his brows furrowed slightly, and then with a flick of his palm, a ray of light poured into his boots, taking away the dirty dirt.
His boots were as white as new again.
"Because Mengxiao is naturally smart, I'm afraid that I will find the doorway like you, and now the best way is for everyone to get together, which is better than coming alone, and the top of the mountain is smaller, which is the last place to meet." The head of Lan Yao's analysis is Dao, and Mo Bai can't refute this at all.
That's right, if he was trapped inside, he would also choose to wait on the top of the mountain.
"Let's hurry, then." Mo Bai knew that this matter was not suitable for jokes, so he opened his mouth and said, "By the way, is the emperor also here?" ”
"yes, he's in, too." Lan Yao responded.
"I'm afraid that this emperor will be the key for us to leave this place." Mo Bai expected that in the forest, the emperor would be able to force the smoke back, and at this moment, the entire back mountain was surrounded by thick smoke, even if the emperor could not repel it in one fell swoop, his perception must be a little more sensitive than all of them.
After all, this black gas was similar to the underworld, and he must be able to detect things that they couldn't perceive, at least find the source of this black gas.
As long as the source is found, everything is easy to do.
