Chapter 41: Tell the Truth
As if an hour had passed, she looked at Mu Ningjiu again and said firmly: "Okay, I promise you." I didn't make it clear last time, and this time, I'm sure you won't break your word. ”
"Someone asked me to stop Shang Jin from entering Ice City, as for who it is and why, I can't say." When Mu Ningjiu heard the person's name, he raised his eyebrows in anticipation: The few people in the same group all wanted to obtain resources from the Ice City, and they couldn't threaten anyone. Only Shang Jin went to save his mother. There must be some connection between his mother and Bingcheng...... She snapped her fingers and said to Shen Wan with a smile: "Interesting! As for Shang Jin's dance, wait a few days, and you won't be disappointed when the time comes. ”
Seeing Mu Ningjiu and Shen Wanyou walking over with a smile, Beigong Han stopped talking with everyone and raised his eyebrows: This Mu Ningjiu is really not simple! Shen Wan's temper is so stubborn, she was so happy to be coaxed by her all of a sudden. Seeing that Beigong Han didn't speak, everyone also looked at him as far as he could see.
"Ning Ning, what are you doing? We're all ready to go. Mu Changfeng called out to her.
"Secret!" Mu Ningjiu winked at him, and Mu Changfeng pouted unhappily when he heard this: What a secret, even he won't tell him......
Wei Chi walked in front and waved to everyone. Seeing this, Beigong Han shouted, "Let's go!" "Be the first to catch up.
Mu Ningjiu turned his head and looked at Shang Jin. Shang Jin looked at her eyes as deep as a whirlpool, willing to fall into them. The undisguised smile at the corner of his mouth, Mu Ningjiu easily captured it, but he was stunned by its straightforwardness and simplicity, and he didn't need any mind to guess. She replied with a light smile from last night, the same mood, the same straightforwardness. Shang Jin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
......
"Ah, Shen Wan, you pony looks very interesting, borrow me to play for a few days." Mu Changfeng saw the Green she had summoned, and his heart was full of fun.
"You're wrong, it's the Green Elf! It's not a horse. Shen Wan corrected.
"Good, good, green elves! So, lend me a few days to play? Mu Changfeng looked at the little guy curiously. The little one blinked and looked him up and down.
"It's not up to me. Green has a spirit, and if you want to play with it, you have to see it right. ”
Mu Changfeng looked at the layer of fluff on its head, slowly swaying in the breeze, and couldn't help but touch it with his hand. The moment they just met, the green elf's gentle eyes suddenly became fierce, and he raised his front hooves and kicked at him. Mu Changfeng hurriedly withdrew his hand, and the strong wind swept across the back of his hand, leaving countless goosebumps.
"Looks like it doesn't like you very much." Shen Wan smiled at Mu Changfeng and beckoned the green elf to walk forward. Mu Changfeng turned around depressedly, and suddenly asked Mu Ningjiu behind him:
"Ning Ning, do you like me?" Mu Ningjiu turned his head and saw a pair of clear blue eyes, flashing with a trace of nervous expectation. She smiled and hooked her lips, rubbed the golden retriever on the back of Mu Changfeng's head, and said, "I like it." "You are handsome, and your mind is very simple, why don't you like it, she added in her heart. When Mu Changfeng heard this, his blue eyes were like stars crossing the night sky, becoming more and more bright. He grimaced at Shang Jin behind him in a demonstrative manner, and then rushed to the front of the group with a bounce. Mu Ningjiu shook her head helplessly, and was stunned when she found that Shang Jin had been side by side with her.
"Shen Wan told me just now that the person she tried to obstruct in every possible way was you. She shouldn't be doing anything, but you're keeping an eye on yourself. ”
"Along the way, although there are naturally many dangers, I haven't found any people who are secretly causing trouble. In this way, it is normal. He hooked the corners of his mouth, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Little fox, are you worried about me?" Mu Ningjiu's heart jumped suddenly, as if she felt that she was at a disadvantage when she looked up at him, she jumped on a big rock, looked down on him, re-repaired her smile, and said slowly:
"She provided this information, and I promised her that you would give her a dance."
"......" Shang Jin's face was like an overturned palette, colorful, and the smile on Mu Ningjiu's face was even greater.
"Hmm, what should I do then," Shang Jin suddenly approached, and by the height of the rock, he happened to come to Mu Ningjiu's ear and whispered;
"I just want to jump to show you."
Mu Ningjiu was stunned for a second, and a bewitching smile appeared on her lips. She hooked Shang Jin's chin with her white index finger, her starry eyes were shining, and she said word by word:
"It's an honor."
Eyes meet, colliding with beautiful sparks.
......
"This is the end." Wei Chi raised his head, looked at the two-zhang high stone wall, and said slowly.
Mu Ningjiu walked back and forth in front of the stone wall, using his spiritual power to search for this piece of obstruction. After going back and forth twice, I finally saw the one that was slightly recessed than the surrounding stone wall. "Brush-" A rhythm flew away, accompanied by two blue and red lights flying from different directions. In the middle of the stone wall, a transparent round hole with uneven density appeared. Mu Ningjiu glanced at Shen Wan: The red light just now...... She and Mu Mu look similar, and they both use spells, so they should come from the same place.
Beigong Han put the little rice balls on the grass and said, "Tang Yuan, I'm here, thank you for guiding me all the way, just that..." What do you mean? Not leaving?
"You want to come with me?" He lifted the soft body of the soup balls and held them in his arms to smooth the hair. The sword eyebrows were slightly raised, and the ink eyes flashed with joy. Tang Yuan licked Beigong Han's thumb with a pink tongue and nodded.
"Don't go back!" Beigong Han lifted it above his head, looked at its little claws kicking in the air due to uneasiness, laughed, and walked through the white hole.
As far as the eye can see, there is a white and vast scene. A bare gravel path stretches underfoot. Looking around, there is hardly a trace of greenery to be seen. Shang Jin looked back, and the expected high stone wall was gone. What is left behind is the white clouds on the horizon. They were stepping on the edge of a cliff, looking down, but they couldn't see the bottom.
"Psychedelic Forest... This? Shang Jin was puzzled, suspecting that he was dreaming. When everyone heard this, they looked back, and they were all stunned. There are thousands of cliffs under your feet, and the cold wind is blowing, but there is no shadow of the psychedelic forest. So where did they come from? Mu Ningjiu touched the location of the white hole with his hand, but only caught a piece of void. She withdrew her hand, stunned.
With mixed feelings, everyone walked downhill along the gravel road, wondering about this desolate scene. I don't know how long it took, but the descent gradually flattened. A trace of cooking smoke filled the air, and twenty or thirty houses were scattered in pieces, but after all, they were embellished with the original monotonous white.
Wei Chi and his entourage walked into the village, and the villagers all put down their work and looked at them with a strange eye.
"Auntie, we want to stay here for a day, I wonder if you have any extra room?" Beigong Han stopped an old man with half-white hair and asked.
The eldest lady was startled, carefully looked at the man in front of her, and muttered: "For decades, no outsiders have come to our village. Why did you come in two or three batches this month......"
"Auntie, where are the other two groups of people you mentioned now?" Shang Jin asked. The eldest lady was about to answer, when she heard an excited shout: "Childe! ”
"Eleven?!" Shang Jin was surprised, and before his body moved, he was pounced.
"You... You've been there for so long, and I've been waiting for it all day, it's so painful...... If it weren't for Master Zhiyin saying that you would be safe, I would have been..."Liu Shiyi's muffled voice came through his clothes, "Isn't this a dream?" It's really Childe! I'm worried about you, although you don't treat me well on weekdays, but ...... It's okay, it's okay......"
"Eleven, you're not too young, and you're still crying, aren't you ashamed?" Shang Jin scolded with a smile, patted Liu Shiyi's back, and reached out to flick his forehead: "Also, where am I treating you badly?" Well? ”
"Huh-" He felt pain, touched his head, and looked at Shang Jin stupidly. Although I haven't seen him for a few days, Childe's beard is a lot heavier and haggard, but he is still so good-looking, and he has a charming temperament that he didn't have before......
"Amitabha, the old man recites the scriptures every day and prays for the benefactor, which can be regarded as a safe return." Master Zhiyin folded his hands and bowed slightly.
Beigong Han patted the shoulder of Ying Shi, who came with him, and asked:
"How's Little Five?"
"Hui Gongzi, my subordinates gave him medicine according to your orders, barely maintaining his life, but other than that, there are no good signs or abnormalities."
"This condition, I look like I have been poisoned, I don't know if Bingcheng has a similar disease. This time I went to Bingcheng, the return date is undecided, you still help me take care of Xiao Wu, I will ask what treatment there is. ”
"Yes, Childe."
"A few sons and girls, the room has been prepared, please don't dislike it."
"I'm in trouble." Wei Chi bowed slightly to the eldest lady and said.
......
The ink is empty, deep and expansive, mysterious and unique.
Out of the village, there is a white sand beach. The vast expanse of the sea makes people feel awe out of thin air.
Next to a bonfire lit in the dark night, Mu Ningjiu and his party sat around, the sea breeze blew, and the sound of "whirring" was endless.
"This is the last place on the map." Shang Jin took advantage of the light and spread out the map and pointed to the location drawn with cinnabar circles on it.
"There is the sea all around here, and there are no other towns except this small village, where does the ice city come from." Beigong Han squinted, lying on the sand on all fours, asking as he poured wine into his mouth.
"Since there are so many blind ways to appear in the psychedelic forest, will there be an entrance to the ice city as well? Just we can't see it? Mu Ningjiu put forward a conjecture.
"Well, it's possible. Didn't the first piece of black black wood write 'Full Moon, Illusionist, End of the World'? The full moon should refer to time. The moon on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar is the roundest, and if you count the days, it will be tomorrow. At the end of the world, these four tokens are used. What about illusionists? Yu Chixuan turned his head sideways and looked at Shen Wan and Mu Changfeng.
