Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Deep Valley
Chen Hu is second only to the leader in the team, in the previous outings, he has repeatedly rescued everyone in danger, and he also takes a lot of care of everyone during the usual training, so everyone is also very convinced of him.
Dong Rui was not dissatisfied when he heard that Chen Hu had let him return to his position, and obediently left Chen Lingqian's side and began to carry out his own vigilance task, and Chen Lingqian was also relieved, no longer had to deal with those clingy men, and began to concentrate on pranayama.
Since not long ago, she felt that something seemed to be wrong with her body, in fact, she couldn't say what was wrong, but she felt very depressed physically and mentally, and the gathering of magical energy began to be a little slow and laborious, and it stands to reason that although they were on the border of the magical wasteland, they were still not within their range.
She had entered the depths of the wasteland several times before, and there had never been a similar situation, which made her vigilant.
Chen Lingqian's speed gradually slowed down, and before she knew it, she was at the end of the team, she glanced around, saw that no one noticed her side, took out a chestnut clay bottle from her waist, pulled out the Shenzhi cork, and sprinkled the purple-black powder in the bottle into the soil, as soon as the powder touched the ground, it quickly melted, as if it had never appeared, the powder kept falling, and constantly melting, but in a moment, the bottle was half empty.
It wasn't until a gully that stretched in front of them that there was no end in sight, that Chen Lingqian put away the pottery bottle.
In fact, as early as half a quarter of an hour ago, someone found that there was something abnormal ahead, but it was almost dusk, if you turned back, you would definitely encounter a large number of demon beast attacks, which was tantamount to throwing yourself into a net, it was better to continue to move forward, maybe there was a glimmer of life, therefore, everyone couldn't take care of too much, and went straight to the present.
"Ahh , how did the team leader get over" At this moment, Dong Rui looked at this bottomless gully and felt a little weak, and couldn't help but ask first.
In fact, it's not just a newcomer like Dong Rui who is weak, even veteran players like Chen Hu and the dark-skinned man are also worried when they see it, it turns out that it's not just a deep valley.
At first glance, it seems that the ground is only two or three zhang wide, but in fact it is just an illusion, as long as you test a little, you will know that the distance between the two sides of the valley mouth is at least four or five zhang, if it is only a long distance, there may be a way to overcome it, and what is even more disturbing is that from the bottom of the valley there are gusts of gloomy wind, and occasionally a little black smoke will drift from the ground.
"It's also the first time for me to see this situation, half a month ago, this deep valley didn't appear here" The blue-robed leader looked at the whimpering deep stream with a solemn expression, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
"I don't think it's surprising, the magic wasteland doesn't change one day, it's just that we happened to bump into it this time, I think, let's discuss how to get past it," a man said at this time, squinting his eyes and a face full of indifference. I saw that he was lean, no taller than the chest of an adult man, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, sparse yellow hair, and a rickety back.
In fact, he felt that some people in the team loved to make a fuss a long time, like a group of hillbillies who had never seen the world, if it weren't for the news that someone who had returned to the city brought news that a new mine had been discovered near Tianya Cave recently, and a large amount of demon-suppressing silver had been mined, he would not have teamed up with this group of croppers who were looking ahead, but looking back, this is just right, when the time comes, maybe they can make more money, I just hope they don't drag their feet at that time.
"The surname Sun, don't say cool words, if you can pass, you can try!"
"I don't think we can get over, so let's go home. ”
"I'm afraid it's too late to go back, or it won't be long before it's getting dark. ”
"yes, if we are attacked by monsters halfway through, we can't resist, so why don't we rush over and give it a try, maybe we can do it. ”
"Then how do you say how to get over, you should see for yourself, I'm afraid that I will go to half a life before I get close. ”
At this time, the team members were arguing with each other, and no one could convince anyone for a while, let alone act rashly. The man surnamed Sun with an indifferent face also frowned and poked his head into the deep valley at this time, but he never moved a step forward.
Even Chen Hu and the captain looked at each other and couldn't make up their minds for a while, after all, this was about twelve lives, and they couldn't be believed.
As the argument continued, the sky became darker and darker, the afterglow of the setting sun gradually fell below the horizon, the stars were about to break through the sky, and the night was approaching, and everyone was still at a loss.
The initial uneasiness was amplified and spread through the crowd with faintly audible roars and long howls around them.
......
Different from everyone's hurry, in the corner where she was not noticed, Chen Lingqian at this moment sometimes listened attentively, sometimes looked up to feel, sometimes frowned and closed her eyes in contemplation, and sometimes squatted down and rubbed the soil under her feet.
The blue-robed team leader and Chen Hu also lowered their heads and whispered about something, and after a while, they both gritted their teeth and clenched their fists, as if they had made some difficult decisions.
The two were just about to walk out of the team, and at this moment, to some surprise, Chen Lingqian walked out of the team one step ahead of them, came to a steep slope less than a foot away from the deep valley, stopped, and then turned to face everyone.
In fact, she didn't want to be this bird, and she didn't think she was more powerful and witty than some people in the team, but the crisis in front of her was imminent, and she couldn't afford the slightest hesitation, so she could only bear it hard.
Since she has come out, she has left any psychological burden behind and no longer has reservations, because she has a deep understanding of the laws of this world, and she can either hide herself or use her strength to deter everyone, not to mention that in the face of this crisis at this time, there are still hesitations and concealments, which is tantamount to digging her own grave.
After thinking about everything, his eyes scanned everyone firmly, and everyone seemed to be waiting for the woman in front of him to say her own answer and lead the team to break through the danger in one fell swoop.
However, to their disappointment, Chen Lingqian didn't say anything, nor did she make any movements, she just closed her eyes quietly, nothing changed except for even breathing, and she didn't say a word quietly, as if she had entered meditation.
In a moment, there were several people who couldn't hold back the restlessness and anger in their hearts, and this situation was standing here and wasting it, didn't it delay everyone's time?
They finally shouted at the woman in front of them, "Hey, you can't do it!", "Yes, if you can't, you go down!"
"Now that you've stepped up, let's try it first, don't worry, we'll all take care of you. The man surnamed Sun was hunched on his back and had a smile on his face.
Chen Lingqian didn't pay attention to the attitude of any of them, it was still the same, but Dong Ruixian couldn't help but take a step forward and turned around in front of her, pointing to the hunchbacked man who was not familiar with him, but laughed so disgustingly, and said sarcastically, "Why don't you try it, I will also pay attention to it for you." ”
"Oh, Brother Dong, you see what you said, if Miss Chen is unwilling, do we still have the reason to be forced, Sun Mou thinks that he doesn't have Miss Chen's ability, he fights eight battles at a time, and he is still at ease, so he naturally won't be in a hurry to send him to death. The man surnamed Sun didn't want to make trouble for no reason, he came here to ask for money, so naturally he wouldn't argue with others, and retreated to the side with his hands in fists.
Dong Rui saw that the other party was interested, and then looked at the other guys who were still aggressive just now, and said aggressively, "And you, what's wrong with her standing here, what's wrong with you? If you want to leave and want to stay, no one will stop you." ”
This is a great opportunity for his own performance, but he can't waste it like this, Dong Rui thought to himself, everyone also looked at each other, this kid is usually honest, smiling in front of the big brother and shouting after the big brother, this beautiful girl becomes so fast, it is purely dog-faced.
"Don't make noise!" A majestic scolding sound came from the other side of the crowd, and everyone looked sideways for the sound, only to see Chen Hu and the team leader standing with their hands in hand, and also learning from Chen Lingqian's appearance on the steep slope, closing their eyes and concentrating.
