Chapter 14: The Rope Boat
Ye Qingli followed behind the team and glanced at the girl secretly, but she didn't expect that she seemed to sense Ye Qingli's gaze, and turned around to show a meaningful smile, Ye Qingli didn't know if she had seen through her thoughts, so she could only quickly shift her gaze as if nothing happened.
After walking a short distance, Ye Qingli and the others met another team, but that team was not Han Yunzhu and Gu Nu, but three fresh faces. A taciturn beard, an older young woman in a black jacket, and a fat man with short hair. Since the fat man had just shouted on the other side of the stream to remind everyone, Ye Qingli and the others had a good first impression of the three of them, so they greeted each other very politely.
Normally speaking, since it is likely to act in unison next, the two teams of strangers must understand each other at this time, although they will not be heart-to-heart, but the names of each other must be understood, otherwise they can only shout "Hey" and "who is that".
The fat man's name is Dong Ju, and his nickname is Dong Sifang. is a very talkative person, and he can't stop chattering with one mouth, the older young woman is called Cheng Fengmei, and the taciturn bearded man is called Lei Di.
Shu Jun and the others also briefly introduced the names of the members here, but as Ye Qingli expected, that girl was the only one who did not take the initiative to introduce herself, and everyone never took the initiative to talk to her, and no one found it unreasonable, as if there was no such person in front of them.
Sure enough, did I guess it? Ye Qingli was more sure of his thoughts in his heart, he looked calm on the surface, but he was anxious in his heart, who knew if he would be in a hurry with a time bomb next to him.
"Fatty, are you also from the Youqing Soul Domain today? Why haven't I seen you before? Shu Jun did not miss any opportunity to get more information.
"Why, don't you know? The Netherlight Soul Domain opens once a month, and there are a total of twelve entrances at a time, and the number of people at each entrance ranges from tens to hundreds. "We are the same Electors, but we have come in through different entrances. ”
"What did you just say that kind of flower is called 'Huangquan Soul Turning Flower', do you know it very well?" Shu Jun asked again.
"Well, we've heard from that 'extraditer' that the Yellow Spring Soul Turning Flower is one of the top ten threats in the Ghost Path of the Abyss. Born in the pile of bones under the Yellow Spring, if you find a living person passing by, you will break through the ground to absorb the nutrients of the living, and grow a bright red soul turning flower. ”
"It was so thrilling just now, we actually walked into the 'garden', and so many came out at once, and we were almost wiped out." The doctor still had palpitations at the thought of that scene.
"Actually, there is only one Soul Turning Flower that attacked you." The fat man smiled and explained proudly: "The Soul Turning Flower is like the same tree, all the vines actually have only one common huge root system underground, and each Soul Turning Flower has an area limit, and there will be no second Yellow Spring Soul Turning Flower within a certain distance." ”
"How do you know so well?" Xin Yi asked curiously.
"Looking at the way you don't know anything, I guess you have been cheated by the 'extraditerr'. Ha ha. The fat man and Cheng Fengmei looked at each other and smiled, "The extraditer's only answers one question for each person, if you don't find this rule at first, you will really be killed by him." Luckily, there was a genius on our side who discovered the existence of the 'extradide' rule at the beginning, so he arranged for us to make good use of everyone's opportunity to ask questions, and asked almost all the important questions, and we asked sixty valid questions, and the 'extradilist' was so depressed that he almost told us the color of her underwear. Hahaha......"
"Don't say it, we also have a genius here, and he really asked the color of the 'extraditionist' underwear." Shu Jun smiled and patted Ye Qingli's shoulder.
The fat man looked adoring when he heard this: "It turns out that Brother Ye is the great god!" ”
The people walked along the stream, the people went to the higher places, the water flowed to the lower places, and gradually, the stream became wider and deeper, and after more than an hour, a large lake appeared in front of everyone's eyes. It turned out that the small stream was overflowing from the shallow depression on the shore of the lake. The lake is irregular in shape, a kilometer wide from the narrowest point of the opposite bank, and in the middle of the lake is a chain bridge, hanging above the lake, rickety and rusty, like a terminally ill and lingering old man.
"My God, at this moment, I was moved by this chain bridge and wept bitterly, older than my grandfather and came out as a trap, this Nimado should be old and strong!" Dong Fat Man shouted, "With my tonnage, as soon as I go up, I will become the last fat man who crushes the iron bridge!" ”
"However, if we want to get around the lake from the side, I guess we'll have to walk another day." Shu Jun has long been accustomed to the funny demeanor of this fat man, "It's hard to say what will happen halfway." ”
"Oh, look, there's a boat on the lake!" Suddenly, Xin Yi pointed to the lake in surprise and said.
Everyone saw that there was really one, because the lake was too big, if it weren't for Xin Yi's sharp eyes, everyone really couldn't find it. So, the fat man and the others hurriedly shouted loudly, and the people on the small boat also found them and slowly rowed the boat over.
"Do you want a boat?" On board was a young man with dyed yellow hair.
This person didn't know anyone, neither Ye Qingli nor his group, nor the fat man's group.
"Dude, I'm so interested, and I'm in the mood to go boating on the West Lake." The fat man asked first.
When the young man heard this, he smiled and said, "I have been separated from my companions, and I finally found a small boat here, and it just so happens that I have learned rowing, so I am waiting here to see if anyone comes, and I don't dare to run to the shore to wander around, it is purely looking for death."
"Well, can this boat sit?" Shu Jun asked the fat man quietly.
"I really don't know about this, the 'extraditerr' didn't say it." The fat man replied in a whisper.
"Don't worry, this ship is very strong, and if there is danger, I myself would have died a long time ago." Huang Mao saw that everyone seemed to have doubts, so he explained with a smile, "I sent you to the other side, and you let me go with me, how about it?" Otherwise, you'll have to climb the chain bridge. ”
The doctor and the others discussed it, and felt that it was more reliable to take a boat than to climb the bridge, so they cautiously got on the yellow-haired boat, which was a classical wooden boat, and rowing required people to shake the oars. After getting on the boat, Ye Qingli breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then he remembered that there was still a "shrapnel" on his body that he hadn't taken out.
"Doctor, see if you can help me get this out." Ye Qingli said as he tore open the mountaineering jacket on his chest, revealing the place where he was "hit" by the Soul Turning Flower.
Hearing this, the doctor squeezed over and looked at it, and said: "Fortunately, the wound is not deep, this seed is not completely penetrated, you can endure the pain, I will just help you pull it out, but such a wound seems to bleed too little, it's really strange." ”
