Chapter 40: Helpless
Chen Jingjing looked at the other end of the white cloth flying in front of him, and hurriedly grabbed the other end of the white cloth, and then Yichen saw Chen Jingjing flying out of his side, Yichen also grabbed Chen Jingjing's feet in a panic, Chen Jingjing stopped in mid-air, and the white cloth also slowed down.
After landing, Chen Jingjing didn't know whether to laugh helplessly, or to be happy after being rescued, so she squatted down and tied the other end. Without looking at Yichen, he jumped on the white cloth, and with a few taps of his feet, he arrived at the opposite bank.
Chen Jingjing turned to look at Yichen, if she usually pretended to leave, but now she was not in the mood to joke at all. Turning his head to find a big tree, a dagger appeared in his palm, the dagger shook twice, Chen Jingjing stood the dagger in front of him and held it hard, the dagger suddenly emitted a long white light, the length of the white light was half a person tall Chen Jingjing, and the moment the white light touched the surface of the tree, a deep mark was left on the tree. Chen Jingjing brandished a glowing dagger, cut off a large piece of bark, held the bark and stepped on the white cloth to jump back to the stone pile, handed the bark to Yichen, and said, "Tie the white cloth to yourself in a while, lie on the bark and I'll pull you over." ”
Without waiting for Yichen to understand, he turned around and jumped over the swamp again.
After that, Yichen did as Chen Jingjing said, crawling on the bark and watching Chen Jingjing pull the white cloth one by one, his limbs drawing a shallow ripple on the swamp.
Yichen went ashore, Chen Jingjing clapped her hands, looked around, and said, "It's better to wait for dawn before leaving, in the ghost place of the barren mountains and mountains, who knows what you will bump into." ”
Yichen didn't reply, Chen Jingjing was in a hurry to leave than him, she naturally had her reason for saying this, Yichen tied the white cloth tied to his body and put it in his clothes.
Chen Jingjing looked at Yichen's actions and wondered, "What are you still doing with that rag." ”
Yichen glared at Chen Jingjing and said, "I heard that this kind of cloth is silk and is very valuable. ”
Chen Jingjing was slightly stunned, turned around and shook her head and chuckled.
From time to time there was a sound of knowledge in the bushes, Yichen sat by the fire, grabbed it back, pulled up a few weeds, and threw them into the fire, the fire was like a hungry beast, and the moment the weeds were about to fall into the fire, the flames were all over the place.
Termites explore back and forth under the fire candle.
Chen Jingjing woke up from her sleep, slowly opened her eyes, and felt a trace of warmth on her face, Chen Jingjing deliberately turned her head to prevent Yichen from seeing, a line of fluorescent tears flowed through her earlobes to her hair, she lost her sister, and wandered in front of the Nine Shades Gate for a day, the moment she woke up, it seemed that she had a dream, and her mind gradually became clear, but how could she accept all this.
Chen Jingjing slowly sat up, looked at her right foot and reached out to touch it, Yichen noticed the sound, turned his head to look at Chen Jingjing, and said in a low voice: "You are awake.."
Chen Jingjing snorted, stretched out her hand and touched her face twice, at this time, the bright light of the east swept the entire land, but she couldn't even see a corner of the sun.
Chen Jingjing looked at Yichen beside her, and said lightly: "Why did you run out to save my sister?"
Yichen lowered his head and said, "I was the one who caused her to be arrested." ”
Chen Jingjing turned her gaze, and her expression seemed to have no interest in this, but she let out a faint sigh.
"Where are you going now?" Chen Jingjing asked as she grabbed a piece of dry wood and threw it into the fire, and the fire made a crackling sound.
Yichen's face was flat, and he said after half a sound: "I'm going to find a friend, and I don't know if he's dead or alive yet."
In the distance, a white horse barked, and they both turned their heads to look at each other.
A trace of warmth flashed across Chen Jingjing's face, and she waved her hand at the white horse.
The white horse stopped beside Chen Jingjing and looked down at the weeds in these places.
Chen Jingjing stood up, patted her clothes, and said, "It's already dark, do you need me to give you a ride?"
Yichen looked at the horses beside Chen Jingjing, a look of envy appeared on his face, he shook his head, and said, "No need." ”
Chen Jingjing rode on the horse and said, "Then I wish you and your friends good luck, we are destined to meet again." ”
"That's right!"
Chen Jingjing grabbed the horse and turned her head to look at Yichen suspiciously, Yichen took out a book from his arms, and continued: "This was picked up in the deep cave, is it yours." ”
Chen Jingjing looked deeply at the four big characters 'Cultivation Strength Formula' on the book in Yichen's hand, then turned her gaze to Yichen, smiled bitterly, turned her head and said softly: "Drive.." The horses strode briskly ahead.
"Brother Tsubasa.. You're guts, but unfortunately you don't have much ability. ”
Halfway through hearing the words, the change in Yichen's complexion could no longer be suppressed, and every time Chen Jingjing said a word, Yichen's complexion sank a little, as if he had returned to the person who was extremely disgusted with this kind of person.
Chen Jingjing waved the horse rope without looking back, she couldn't guess Yichen's expression, the horse rope was gently tightened, and the horse slowed down.
"Whew..." Chen Jingjing let out a breath, eased her emotions, and said in a loud voice: "This book is a perfect match for your temperament, so I will give it to you, read it carefully, and sooner or later you will be able to call for wind and rain like us after the official eunuchs are rich and noble." Chen Jingjing shook the horse rope again and galloped away.
Yichen's angry expression was stunned for a moment, looking at the back that had gone away, the joy that welled up in his heart had burned to his face, but he could think that this book must be some kind of martial arts secret, looking at Chen Jingjing's back that gradually disappeared. Then he turned around, and by the sunlight in front of him, a dark shadow was reflected behind him, and the shadow of the book kept flipping and moving forward.
The horses galloped in the jungle with Chen Jingjing, the pace of the horses slowed down again, Chen Jingjing's face was a little desolate, looked up at the untouchable sunlight, and said lightly: "After the eunuch.........."
In the swamp rubble, a stone suddenly sank, and then a fox with a snow-white body, the size of a palm, blue eyes, and a few blue hairs on its forehead came out of the crack in the stone, it shook off the dust on its body, looked around, and reunited with its long-lost freedom, it ignored the danger of the swamp, and ran happily on the swamp, and the ripples spread with the fox in circles.
The fox ran two laps through the swamp and came to the land, and then the white dot disappeared into the jungle.
At noon, Yichen sat next to the tree, his whole body trembled, his nails dug into the flesh, staring at the scene in front of him, the wood hiding Wan Zhongding's body was shattered into powder, and there was a faint black gas lying in the broken wood, the surrounding trees were scorched, the ground was scratched innumerably, blood was splashed, and it was obvious that he had experienced a fierce battle, and Wan Zhongding's body had disappeared.
Yichen had already searched around, and there were still a few traces of a fight, which was similar to the previous situation, but he couldn't find a single figure.
Yichen knew that no matter whether Lu Yu was safe or not, he would not return here, after all, five days had passed, and he had to bury the corpses of thousands of predecessors.
Yichen sat blankly by the tree, and after half a sound he stood up, looked into the distance, then looked around, and then sat down again.
Yichen rummaged through his pocketbag with a hint of luck, but it was still as empty as he had seen on the third day in the deep cave.
He didn't know what he should do next, where to go, except for Lu You, all he could think of was Zhang Qi, but if he went to find Zhang Qi, it would undoubtedly cause Zhang Qi a lot of trouble, and he would even be implicated.
Yichen's body twitched, this feeling was even more uncomfortable than when he was holding on to the rocks, where should he go?
Yichen began to miss his mother again, if she was there, Yichen would at least not feel so powerless, in this world, he was really the only one left. His heart moved, and he suddenly remembered that he had promised a girl that he would go back to her.
