When I woke up, I found myself lying in a pile of hay, looking around, surrounded by dense woods, the forest is mostly green pine, redwood and different varieties of plane trees, the branches and leaves above the head are crisscrossed, covering the sky and the sun, the night light through the gaps in the branches sprinkled down, vaguely discernible the weeds around and to the knees, when the wind is waving, like waves rolling, gratuitously giving people a heavy sense of depression.

I rolled over and got up, only to feel that the wind was silent, and there was a little pain on my face, the field was not better than the city, the temperature was obviously several degrees lower, I reached out and tightened the coat on my body, thinking to myself that I don't know what's going on recently, first, I am a little sleepy, and secondly, I will be unconscious for no reason, the previous purple pill has long been discontinued, Ling Kai also said that the rat venom in my body has long been removed, why is it still so?

Another gust of wind blew, and I shivered with cold, but fortunately I checked the weather forecast here before setting off and brought a few extra coats, otherwise it would have been difficult to survive such a cold night.

I turned my head and saw that a hundred meters away from the rear, four army green tents had been set up, enclosing a small square courtyard, and a looming blue light surrounded the tent, which should be the barrier line arranged by Ling Kai to call the police.

I looked at the empty tent area and walked over in surprise.

When it approached and raised its legs to step over the blue light, it hummed, and the blue light curtain rose into the sky, reflecting a bright light in a radius of hundreds of miles, but it disappeared into invisibility in an instant.

It didn't take long for the sound of hurried footsteps to sound from three directions at the same time, and I turned my head to look at Ling Kai, Qin Rui and Li Hongxun who were rushing over, all of them holding a bunch of dry branches and green pine grass in their hands, knowing that my actions had disturbed them who were collecting firewood, and hurriedly smiled dryly, "I'm sorry, I don't know why I fainted." ”

Qin Rui shrugged his shoulders and didn't speak, stepped over the blue light and walked to the middle of the tent, piling the dry firewood in his hand in the grass.

"It's okay, you're just too tired from traveling overnight, and the humidity here is too heavy, and you won't be able to stand it for a while before you fall into a coma. It's windy here, let's go in," Li Hongxun smiled at me, holding the branch grass in his hand and gently placing it beside Qin Rui, who didn't raise his head, as if he hadn't heard her footsteps, and had such a cold attitude as if he was treating a stranger.

I didn't think about whether what she said was right, and I didn't think about whether I really fell into a coma because I was overtired, but I saw that Li Hongxun's face turned slightly pale, and I felt that I was not worth it for her, so I couldn't help but cross the blue line and asked, "Qin Rui, Hongxun and we are companions, can you not be so indifferent?" ”

He glanced up at me, rolled his eyelids and didn't speak, but took the branches handed by Ling Kai with his backhand, and then scooped up the branches beside him and piled them together, took out a lighter and lit the pine grass mixed in the middle of the branches, and then stuffed them into the middle of the branches that were piled up like a hill.

When I saw that he ignored my words and frowned and wanted to persuade me again, Li Hongxun had already grabbed my wrist and said, "Let's go, let's go pack up and take some ingredients to prepare dinner by the way." ”

I glanced at her, but I saw her smile sadly at me, shook my head and signaled me not to embarrass Qin Rui anymore, I could only stomp my feet, and each went back to the tent to pack up briefly. When I came out of the tent, she had already fiddled with the small folding table, pots and pans she had brought with her, and when she saw her lifting the small iron bucket to find a water source, Ling Kai came out of her tent and said, "No need to get water." ”

We all looked at him in amazement and saw him striding towards me with a fluffy blanket in his hand.

I was angry and didn't want to pay attention to him, but he handed me the blanket and said, "It's windy at night, and you're afraid of the cold, so cover more so as not to catch a cold." His heart was soft, obviously still angry with him, but his arm took the blanket uncontrollably, his cold face bloomed slightly, like the cold ice in winter quietly dissolved a gap, although the smile was not obvious, but like a spring breeze blowing through my heart, all the unhappiness was purified, and the body and mind felt warm.

When I realized that I was standing there stunned, Ling Kai had already taken out a piece of rune paper, the aura in his hand was slightly rippling, and he threw the rune paper with a slight golden light into the bucket, with a bang, the clear water source instantly filled the iron bucket, and I asked very curiously, "What is this?" ”

"Water Spirit Talisman," Li Hongxun explained with a calm expression, obviously knowing the origin and purpose of this thing.

"Oh, how did you get it?"

"It must be a monk born with a water spirit root to make it."

I immediately asked curiously, "Then is there any way to test the spiritual root?" "I've read a lot of cultivation books, but I didn't expect this kind of fantasy thing to appear around me, so naturally it was extremely unexpected.

As if to see what I was thinking, Ling Kai replied to me, "You are different from us, you are a spirit girl of the Wu Clan, and you rely on absorbing the natural power of heaven and earth to transform it into your own spiritual power, so you have both five elements. ”

"Really?" My eyes lit up and I hurriedly asked, "Then I can make these talismans too?" ”

The corners of Ling Kai's lips hooked slightly, and he couldn't help but nod with a smile, "Yes, but these things consume spiritual power but are useless, waste spiritual power, don't learn it." ”

He is also right, I make water spirit runes, fire spirit runes, etc., and I can't use them to get rid of demons and subdue demons, can't I use them for viewing or selling? I immediately felt ridiculous at my naivety, smiled awkwardly, turned back to the tent, put down the blanket, and went out to help Li Hongxun prepare dinner.

Soon after I threw the vacuum-packed organic vegetables, noodles, and beef cubes into the pot and boiled them, the aroma immediately filled the sky, and I was satisfied to be able to enjoy such a meal in the wild.

After the meal, while I was cleaning up the dishes with Li Hongxun, I remembered the huge black statue I saw before, raised my head, and looked at the sky through the gap between the branches and leaves, there was nothing but darkness there, and after waiting for a long time, there was still no black shadow flashing, and I couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "The stone statue I saw before is missing again, could it be that we are in the wrong direction?" ”

As she was washing the dishes, she smiled and said, "Since you are a god who guards the tomb, how can you show your face so easily?" Rest assured, we are not ordinary people, even if we don't know the exact location of the canyon, but we are not too far away, it should be in front of us. ”

"Is that idol real or an illusory illusion?"

Seeing that I was curious, Li Hongxun explained to me for a long time, "Naturally, it is a stone sculpture, but it can only have simple thoughts when it is endowed with mana, but their thoughts only stay at preventing outsiders from entering the tomb and preventing the ancestors buried in the tomb from being harassed." ”

"Will it be difficult to deal with?"

"If it is an ordinary tomb, I am afraid it will not be very powerful, but the Wu clan has always been mysterious, and if the canyon is really the holy place of eternal resting of the patriarchs of the Wu clan, I am afraid that the gods guarding the town will not be very easy to deal with!"
