Chapter Ninety-Five—The Hidden Rift
Guihai Luoxue and Lin Mumu, who were hidden behind the corner of the corridor, heard all this clearly, and the two of them quietly slipped back to their room after Sha Xiaoliang ran back to their room.
After the two closed the door, they looked at each other and snickered, hurriedly got into the quilt, and began to whisper to count the times when Sha Xiaoliang was courteous to the sea over the years, but was rejected many times, and did not sleep peacefully until late at night.
And Guihai Shiruo, who lived next door to them, didn't fall asleep for a long time after Sha Xiaoliang ran away, and his mind repeatedly recalled the laughter and joy of Chi Mudie and Canglan when they got along, and then Sha Xiaoling's words echoed in his heart again.
"Brother Shiruo, you only have her in your heart, but does she really care about you?"
Thinking back to this, Ruo suddenly felt a blockage in his chest when he returned to the sea, immediately sat up from the bed, took a few deep breaths, got out of bed and walked to the window, stretched out his hand to push open the wooden window, and wanted the cool night breeze to blow the nameless anger in his chest. The fluttering eyes looked at the distant starry sky, but in the next moment, a frowning and low sigh appeared again.
"That's not the marriage you should have. ”
When returning to the sea, Ruo stood by the window and sighed, carefully took out a small fish woven from reed leaves from his arms, put it in his palm with love, looked at this long-dried little fish with lonely eyes, and whispered to himself with a wry smile: "When you were a child, after hearing the legend of birds and swimming fish, you said to me with a firm face, you must be my bird...... But now, you have really become a bird, and the fate of this man tells me that your swimming fish is someone else...... You, who have always been sensible, if you knew the truth, what kind of decision would you make?"
--
Chi Mudie and Cang Lan, who were speeding all the way in the dazzling morning light, rushed back to Phantom Wing City as fast as they could, but within a hundred miles of them from Phantom Wing City, Cang Lan's Ice Spirit Tiger let out an uneasy low howl, and then the silent sound goose under Chi Mudie's seat also began to turn around and hover in place, refusing to continue to fly forward.
Just as the two of them were wondering, they saw that in the Phantom Wing City not far away, a large group of snow-headed falcons wearing battle armor suddenly flew vertically, rushing towards the two of them with a low roar, lightning struck them, and the two of them were instantly surrounded by these snow-headed falcons.
At this moment, the armor of the snow falcons around them suddenly spewed out various colors of smoke, and these smoke quickly hit the two people trapped in the middle with the strong wind when the snow head falcon's wings waved, Cang Lan and Chi Mudie reacted instantly, and at the same time jumped high from their mounts, respectively used a strong iron chain to lasso the two galloping snow head falcons, and then threw the other end of the chain to the other party, and instantly pulled the iron chain, and the two snow head falcons that were trapped were taken by a fierce force in the opposite direction, instantly lost their balance, and slammed towards their companions in formation。
The remaining snow-headed falcons gave up their original formation in order to avoid their companions who were tied up and fell, but Chi Mudie and Cang Lan just took advantage of this gap to break through the encirclement, Chi Mudie rushed out first, and shouted to Cang Lan: "Follow me, let's get rid of them first!"
Phantom Wing Island is a floating island composed of giant tree forests, and when the water demons tore apart the continent a hundred years ago, they were unable to tear apart the entangled root system between these ancient trees that had grown for thousands of years, and the entire forest was torn off as a whole. Most of the towns in this forest are located on the canopy of various giant trees, and the main city of Phantom Wing City is located among the dense branches and leaves of one of the largest 10,000-year-old giant trees, so it has become a new continent that has been shattered and restored the fastest after the formation of a new floating island.
Chi Mudie swooped down quickly along the main trunk of the 10,000-year-old giant tree with the silent sound goose, quickly staggered and shuttled under the dim canopy of the giant tree forest, and after a while, all those snow-headed falcons were thrown away.
When Chi Mudie frowned and thought about whether to return the same way to find Cang Lan, she suddenly found that many crystal clear ice crystals were falling above her head, and when she looked up, she found that above her, Cang Lan, who was riding an ice tiger, was also looking down at herself.
"We seem to have gotten rid of those falcons. However, since they flew out of Phantom Wing City to attack us, it means that the current Phantom Wing City has been occupied by others, so let's contact Shangchi Muyan first to understand the details before making the next step. ”
Cang Lan frowned slightly, and told Chi Mudie her guesses and plans, and then looked at her reaction, but found that she was looking at herself with curious eyes, so she asked a little puzzled: "Hmm, what's wrong?"
Chi Mudie shook her head and exclaimed: "I thought you were lost, and I was wondering if I should go back to look for you! The trunks of the trees under the canopy of these giant trees on Phantom Wing Island are almost exactly the same, outsiders and spirit beasts are easy to get lost, have you ever been to Phantom Wing Island before?"
Cang Lan smiled and nodded: "When I came here before, your brother also said the same thing to me, and introduced me to the tree species of each different forest, and I memorized them all in my mind with the unique smell of each tree. ”
Cang Lan said as she let the Ice Spirit Tiger approach a giant tree with relatively smooth bark and a slight greenish glow, "Just like this lesson, although the appearance is extremely similar to the beast horn green tree, the smell is even more bitter. ”
Chi Mudie also leaned over curiously, put her nose close to the trunk of the tree and sniffed it carefully, and looked at Cang Lan with an incredible look, "Wow! You are so amazing, I grew up here, and I can't distinguish the smell of these trees at all!"
Cang Lan smiled and pointed to her nose, looking at Chi Mudie with her deep blue eyes, "Just as you can distinguish the direction by the difference in the subtle friction sound between leaves, I can also use my sense of smell to remember objects, so as to perceive the direction and determine the direction." ”
Chi Mudie listened to Canglan's explanation, nodded a little confused, and suddenly raised her head and asked strangely: "Hmm, how do you know that I use my voice to discern the direction?"
Cang Lan's fingers that were sending a spiritual message to Chi Muyan suddenly froze, and she smiled a little weakly: "Uh...... Your brother told me. Now I'll send him a spiritual letter first, and after confirming his location, let's go to him again, he has so many ghost ideas, even if he is caught, there should be no danger. ”
Ji Mudie suddenly showed a wicked smile, looked at Cang Lan and whispered, "Hehe, I can finally understand the excitement of Tsukimi and the president when Hatsubai was locked up that time." ”
Cang Lan also listened to her tell her about this incident, and then put down the spiritual letter that was about to be sent, touched her chin and smiled lightly: "After you said this, I am really interested in seeing how Chi Muyan was caught." ”
After that, he looked at Chi Mudie and asked with a light smile, "Eh, Fluttershy, do you have a way to find him?"
Chi Mudie sat on the back of the silent sound goose and thought for a while, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and patted the back of the silent sound goose, "That's right! I have a way! The wild goose roared a few times, so that the feather whistle on my brother's body sounded." ”
After receiving the order, the silent goose craned her neck and raised her head to make a few long noises, but strangely did not make any sound. After a few long chirps from the silent sound geese, Chi Mudie closed her eyes, listened carefully for a while, opened her eyes excitedly, smiled at Cang Lan and whispered: "Cang Lan, don't you say that I forgot, I gave my brother a feather whistle made of the feathers of the silent sound goose last time, and now as long as my silent sound goose makes a long call, the feather whistle will also make the same sound, so that as long as you follow this sound all the way to the past, you can find my brother's location." ”
"Your method is very good, the sound of the silent sound goose, it is difficult for ordinary people to hear, it is a very small volume, but it can be heard far away, I think I will also tame a silent sound next time, and make a few more feather whistles for my two brothers and sisters who are running around. ”
Cang Lan said and remembered his two unconscious younger siblings, bowed his head and showed a helpless smile, Chi Mudie also saw the two naughty little guys with his own eyes when he went to Yingzhou Island last time, and also smiled and said: "Although Xiaoyun and Xiuxiu are naughty, they are also very likable, the last time I went to Yingzhou Island, they also enthusiastically pulled me around to play!"
Speaking of this, Chi Mudie suddenly thought of something again, and asked curiously: "By the way, Cang Lan, can you also hear the cry of the silent sound goose?"
Cang Lan nodded, and took out the two small bone bells that she had shown her, "Actually, the cry of the silent sound goose is similar to the bone bell of our blue wolf clan, and it is that unique sound that can be heard from a long distance. ”
Chi Mudie looked at Cang Lan's serious expression when she said these words, her heart tightened, and that inexplicable sense of familiarity surged out again, but at this moment, a soft sigh of a familiar woman sounded in her ears, and at the same time, Chi Mudie suddenly felt a sharp pain in her skull, and then she felt that her body suddenly lightened, and her eyes fainted.
However, the moment before Chi Mudie fell into a coma, Cang Lan had already noticed her abnormality, and jumped from the back of the Ice Spirit Tiger to the body of the silent sound goose before her body was tilted to one side, and took her into her arms first.
The moment before Chi Mudie lost consciousness, she saw Cang Lan frowning, anxiously calling her name, subconsciously, she wanted to reach out to smooth his frowning eyebrows, and wanted to tell him that she was okay to reassure him, but her arms were so heavy that she couldn't lift them at all, and her eyes drooped heavily.
When Chi Mudie woke up from a long dream, she opened her eyes in a daze, but was frightened by the bright starry sky that came into her eyes, and Cang Lan, who was guarding the side, was also startled by her actions, and quickly picked up the staff and used a calming spell to help her regulate her emotions, while softly comforting and asking:
"Don't be afraid, Fluttershy, we're in the canopy of a tree in the forest next to the Giant Tree Grotto. What's wrong with you, is there anything wrong with you right now?"
Chi Mudie looked at Cang Lan with misty eyes, and now he felt that his deep blue eyes full of concern seemed familiar, so he shook his head a little suddenly.
"I thought I had a long dream, but when I woke up, I couldn't remember the contents of the dream at all. Maybe I've been in a hurry to find the whereabouts of Tsukimi these days.,There's no rest.,Okay.,It seems to be okay now.。 ”
