Chapter 251: Danger Comes
Suddenly, everyone fell into deep thought, not knowing what to do. After all, what Elder Li Mu said was indeed right, if Jing Teng hadn't planned to pick the red fruit from the beginning, then he wouldn't have gone in that direction, but would have gone in other directions, so that they were really looking for a needle in a haystack.
In the end, it was Yang Xiaotian who interrupted everyone's thoughts and said firmly: "Brother Jing Teng, he will definitely go to the direction of Hongguo, he promised me that he will definitely complete the task and come back, isn't that task Hongguo?"
Elder Lan Ze thought for a moment, and also agreed: "Well, I agree, let's go there directly to find Jing Teng, and besides, except for this place where you can touch it, there is no way to find it in other directions." ”
Elder Li Mu nodded, this was exactly what he had planned, so he directly led the two of them towards there. Although it took some time now, it didn't affect them to intercept Jing Teng there.
Finally, under the leadership of Elder Li Mu, the three of them headed towards the depths of the mist.
In this way, Elder Li Mu was in front, Elder Lan Ze was behind, and Yang Xiaotian was in the middle, and when they couldn't see each other, they only relied on a rope to shuttle through the fog.
After walking a hundred meters, Elder Li Mu began to close his eyes to feel the direction, and at this time, closing his eyes to feel and listening to the call of his heart is often more accurate than direct judgment after seeing it.
Because of this, the speed at which the three of them walked was extremely slow, and it could even be described as turtle speed, and several people walked like this for three days and three nights.
"Lao Li, let's go like this, we won't be able to reach Shanshan until the Year of the Monkey!" Elder Lan Ze behind him revealed, a hint of redness appeared in his eyes, and he complained.
"This is the safest way. Elder Li Mu glanced at Lan Ze and said impatiently.
"But if it goes on like this, when we get to Shanshan, Jing Teng will have already left there. Elder Lan Ze had been following Li Mu all the time, stopping and stopping, he was a little resentful in his heart, with his straightforward character, how could he not say it, now seeing that Li Mu was still not in a hurry, the more he spoke, the more excited he became, he didn't expect that in his heart, Elder Li Mu, who had an upright personality and strong strength, would do things so cautiously, even to the point of being harsh.
Elder Li Mu also felt the resentment in Lan Ze's tone, and his heart was even more aggrieved, didn't you want to come in to save Jing Teng? I led the way, but now it's too slow, the more he thought about it, the more unbalanced he became, he turned around, glared at Lan Ze angrily, his eyes were full of blood red, and he roared excitedly: "Then can we go to Shanshan with our eyes closed and blindly walking forward?"
"Is this how it goes?" Lan Ze said angrily, still angry.
"You're too slow, you can go first. Elder Li Mu didn't show weakness and shouted.
"Let's go, let's go separately to save Jing Teng and see who rescues him first. Elder Lan Ze continued.
In an instant, the angry eyes of the two collided in the mist, and even a faint soul aura rose up on both of them.
"Two elders!"
Yang Xiaotian, who was beside him, had already noticed the abnormality of the two, the teacher Lan Ze and Elder Li Mu usually had a very good relationship between the two, and they had similar personalities, and they could often see the two walking together in the academy, because the teacher was older than Elder Li Mu, and he had been in Nancheng College for many years, so Elder Li Mu often treated the teacher as a brother, and he had never seen the two of them blush, what was the matter today, how could he feel like he was going to fight if he didn't say a word!
Yang Xiaotian felt a slight heat in the mist, as if he understood something, so his hands invaded the storage ring, and after a while, two cowhide pots appeared on his hands, and then, taking advantage of the two elders' unpreparedness, he splashed the water in the cowhide pot on the faces of the two people.
In an instant, like red iron entering cold water, it makes a "whoosh" sound.
Almost at the same time, the two of them let out a low roar, like waking up from a dream, but they clearly felt that they had just blamed each other, and they looked at each other with shame in their hearts.
Now, the eyes of the two of them are not as red as they were just now, but more apologies.
"Lao Li, I'm sorry! I'm too anxious. Elder Lan Ze was the first to apologize.
"I don't blame you, so do I!" Elder Li Mu also said.
Then, the two of them smiled knowingly.
"I don't know why, just now there was a fire in my heart, and I felt like I wanted to vent it when I saw anyone. Elder Lan Ze said with some confusion.
"Both
It's this damn fog that's causing the trouble!" Elder Li Mu pointed to the fog in front of him and said.
He had seen the fog powerful, at that time, when he was not saved, he shuttled through this fog, I don't know how many days later, he was almost on the verge of collapse, and even wanted to die to seek relief, fortunately someone rescued him at that time, otherwise, he would have died in this other world.
"This fog contains a wealth of hot and dry energy, and this hot and dry energy can enter the human body through breathing, and after a long time, it accumulates in the human body, and when it reaches a certain amount, it naturally explodes. It's like a volcano, it erupts every few hundred years, and that's why. Yang Xiaotian saw that the two elders had returned to normal, so he explained.
"How do you know?" Lan Ze looked at Yang Xiaotian suspiciously, feeling that he seemed to be right, but even he, the teacher, didn't know this, how did Xiaotian know.
Elder Li Mu suddenly noticed that Yang Xiaotian didn't seem to be reacting, so he looked at Yang Xiaotian like a monster and asked, "Yes, why are you okay?"
After all, the two elders of them were both in the realm of the Soul Master Realm, and they couldn't resist this hot and dry qi, so how could Xiao Tian and him, a student of the Soul Master Realm, resist!
This series of questions made Yang Xiaotian not know how to answer, so he explained the reason he knew: "Maybe it's because of my identity as a refiner, I need to be next to the refining furnace for a long time, and I often feel this hot and dry air!"
The two elders nodded and understood.
Indeed, Xiao Tian is a refiner, and after dealing with the refining furnace for a long time, he can naturally detect a faint hot and dry qi in the mist! In this way, it is not surprising that he knows that the hot and dry qi attacks people, and in the same way, he has a certain immunity to the hot and dry qi, so it is naturally not surprising!
In this way, in order to prevent what happened just now, every period of time, Yang Xiaotian poured some cold water on the two elders to cool down.
In the end, after walking for another three days and three nights, the three of them came to the foot of Sugiyama without danger, although the fog blocked everyone's sight, but the familiar smell of Sugiyama had already flown into Elder Li Mu's nose, and it was getting stronger and stronger.
"Today, let's rest for the night, recuperate our spirits, and go into the mountains tomorrow. Elder Li Mu stopped, let out a long breath, and said.
Lan Ze also agreed, now they are in this fog, walking for six days and six nights in a row, physically and mentally exhausted, and the reason why they didn't stop to rest before is because there has always been a belief that supports them, that is, to save people, and now they are about to reach their destination, if they don't rest, when the time comes, step into the Shanshan, even if they find Jing Teng, as long as they encounter a little danger, they don't have the soul to resist at all.
"Okay, the two of us take shifts to rest. Elder Lan Ze patted Li Mu's shoulder, this was a familiar way for the two of them.
Elder Li Mu felt Lan Ze's comfort, and instantly felt a lot more relaxed, so he squeezed out a smile and responded to Elder Lan Ze.
"You've worked so hard! I'll take turns with you. Yang Xiaotian looked at the two elders, his heart was full of gratitude, his eyes were a little blurred, and he said.
The two elders looked at each other and smiled. Then, Elder Lan Ze patted Yang Xiaotian's hair and said with a smile, "You go to sleep first!"
"But ......" Yang Xiaotian still wants to fight.
"I know your filial piety, it's just that you, a student of the Soul Elder Realm, lack the ability to perceive soul energy, and you can't feel the danger in the distance at all, you really have to wait for you to feel it, the danger has already come to you, and you can't stop a few breaths!" Elder Lan Ze still said with a smile.
At this time, Elder Li Mu also walked over, his eyes full of smiles, and said, "Go to sleep!"
Helpless, Yang Xiaotian could only sleep on the ground, while the two elders took turns to wait for everyone.
During this time, the three of them were indeed too tired, not only physically exhausted, but also anxious in their hearts, their nerves were always in a state of high tension, always on guard against the invasion of the enemy, so when they were just lying on the grass, they had already fallen asleep. Because considering that in the past six days, it had been Elder Li Mu who had been exploring the way in front, so Elder Lan Ze took the initiative to stand at the post in the middle of the night and let them sleep first, while he stood and observed everywhere to prevent danger from happening.
Just as Yang Xiaotian began to fall asleep, suddenly
There was a shouting from the side.
"Hurry up!"
Yang Xiaotian stood up suddenly, his originally confused eyes suddenly focused together, staring at the fog in front of him, his whole nerves were tense, the first battle in the other world was coming, all kinds of fear, nervousness, and curiosity filled his heart.
At this time, the mind had already invaded the storage ring, and a long sword appeared in his hand, flashing with cold light.
Elder Li Mu bowed his body slightly, staring at the front with his eyes like torches, as if he was ready to fight at any time.
Although they couldn't see anything, they could clearly feel that the entire air was already filled with danger, and there were faint sounds in their ears, as if the battle was about to break out.
Li Mu, the only one of the three who had fought with a stranger, reminded him with his experience: "Everyone be careful! They are arranging their troops. ”
"Xiaotian, you come among us!" Elder Lan Ze shouted as he unleashed his Horcrux and pointed straight ahead.
I saw Elder Lan Ze and Elder Li Mu one after the other, back to back, holding Horcruxes, the flickering rays of the weapons facing the opposite direction, while Yang Xiaotian was among them, also holding the Ling'er Long Sword.
He knew that even if there were two elders to protect him, there were many enemies, and as the saying goes, two fists were hard to beat four hands, and it would be difficult for them to take care of themselves when the time came, so he had to arm himself first.
