Chapter 0360: Honest Conversation
Except for a few people, most of them only know each other, not very familiar, and have never had this kind of cooperation, so it takes a certain amount of time to enhance understanding, and chatting is a very good way.
Xia Qingyang used to be a very lively person who could speak well, but now he is somewhat dull, but he will not be boring after really touching it.
Lan Shicheng is a full image of the second ancestor, he can insert a lever anywhere, originally he was the weakest in terms of his reputation, but after getting along in a short time, he was the most open in his team.
Xia Qingyang couldn't help but sigh that the dean and the others were so old-fashioned, originally Lan Shicheng's strength was not enough to enter this team, but for such a team that has been put together temporarily, in addition to a captain who can convince the public, there must also be a person who can play the role of a lubricant to coordinate and balance the relationship within the team, and this candidate is none other than Lan Shicheng.
Ning Changhe, Yin Mingyue and Lei Sheng are straightforward, have no shelves, and are very easy to talk, but after all, their identities are there, and it is not suitable to adjust the atmosphere in the team with their hippie smiles, and they can't do it.
In addition, Yaxuan is also very important, she is well-informed and assertive, she can give advice to Xia Qingyang very well, and she is also a woman, and she can also get closer to Jingfeng, and stabilize the two people in Ruolong Feng's team who are most likely to become unstable factors.
Xia Qingyang chatted with everyone while thinking in his heart, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that those old guys were meticulous and strategic, and they were indeed superior, and he even felt that even if this group of people could not complete the task, they would have a way to make amends.
Because it was from Ningzhou to the northern frontier, the team was still hundreds of miles away from the deep pit discovered by Xia Qingyang, in order to avoid people's eyes and ears as much as possible, everyone could only choose to rush at night, and they had to carefully avoid the demon beasts, so the speed of travel was really not fast.
In this case, the people in the team also felt the ability of Xia Qingyang, the captain, for the first time, although everyone has a map of this area, but the terrain of northern Xinjiang is complex and the territory of the beast clan, the map is not detailed, this kind of work of sneaking in the dark is really not something that everyone can do well.
Xia Qingyang is undoubtedly an expert in this area, he has a wealth of experience in mountain and jungle life that others do not have, he can always use all kinds of traces to avoid places where there may be monsters in advance, and can always choose the most convenient and safest path in complex terrain.
This point even Ning Changhe and Yin Mingyue, two people who live in the north of Kyushu all the year round, have to admire.
Even so, it took the group three days to reach their destination.
In the dense forest where Xia Qingyang and Jin Pang had taken refuge next to the deep pit, the group took a break and made final preparations.
Because everyone knows nothing about the situation under the deep pit, the situation that Xia Qingyang detected with the help of the demon beast in the Beast King Seal last time was basically useless, so he had to do all kinds of countermeasures.
In order to avoid arousing the resistance in the hearts of these children of the family, although Xia Qingyang is the captain, except for leading the team when marching, he hardly deliberately reflects the identity of a captain in other aspects.
But at this moment, he had to stand up and say a few words, because the next action was not only related to whether the task could be finally completed, but also related to the personal safety of this team.
"Ladies and gentlemen. Xia Qingyang was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, leaning on the tree behind him, trying to reduce the image of giving orders as much as possible: "I have a few questions I want to discuss with you before the action. ”
Lan Shicheng said seriously: "Captain, you can give the order." ”
Xia Qingyang glared at him angrily, but he was secretly grateful in his heart.
Ning Changhe suddenly smiled at this time: "Qingyang, when the dean asked me to join the team through my grandfather, I used the word invite, I invited to assist you, I agreed or not, I didn't even think about it, I agreed, firstly, as a member of the human race, secondly, as your brother, you really can't say it if you don't come to support." ”
As soon as the words fell, Yin Mingyue laughed: "Exactly, I don't have so much nonsense in the long river, I just think that Brother Xia, you are very pleasing to the eye, this trip is mainly based on you, you are welcome." ”
Xia Qingyang smiled and was about to speak, but he heard the thunder and said: "Brother Qingyang, I am younger than you, and my grandfather made a special confession before I came out, saying that I am not smart with his brain, and I must listen to you more." ”
When everyone heard this, not only Fu'er, but the patriarch of the Lei family, Lei Yutang, is indeed a straightforward person, but it is naturally a joke to say that the brain is not bright, if it is determined that the patriarch of the Lei family is not smart based on his external words and deeds, such a person is a bad brain.
Seeing that everyone had expressed their attitudes, Ruolong also said busily: "Brother Qingyang really doesn't have to be like this, we are all about the same age, although we have had few contacts before, but being able to be sent by the seniors to do this important thing is the fate of brothers, although you can arrange it." ”
Jingfeng said coquettishly: "I don't like to hear what you say, it's all the fate of brothers, forget me and Sister Yaxuan?"
Everyone laughed again when they heard this, Yaxuan moved over, took Jingfeng's hand and said, "Let them call them brothers, let's join forces, can we still lose to them?"
When Jingfeng was nodding with a smile, Lan Shicheng said with a narrow smile: "I'm afraid you won't be able to get your wish with this sister-in-law, Jingfeng's sister and Ruolong's brother are not separated from each other when they eat and sleep, where can they join forces with you?"
This remark immediately caused a startled phoenix to press his head and beat him violently, Lan Shicheng hurriedly begged for mercy in a low voice: "Sister, spare your life, don't alarm the demon beast." ”
The frightened phoenix just stopped, but her little face was still red.
After this joke, the atmosphere suddenly became lively, Xia Qingyang felt warm and happy in his heart, and said: "Since you brothers, oh, and the Jingfeng girl is so generous, Qingyang is no longer pretentious, so I will talk about our action plan." ”
"As you know, the fog beneath the valley is very corrosive, but it's not a big problem for us, I'm worried about something outside of it. Xia Qingyang said.
Lan Shicheng frowned and interjected: "I have a different opinion, according to what you said, this fog is getting thicker and thicker, and it is becoming more and more corrosive, and it was far from the end at that time, no one knows how thick the fog will be if it continues to fall, and it may not be able to resist it with our realm." ”
Yaxuan also said: "Qingyang, we would rather be overly cautious than careless, I also think this fog is strange, we need to be careful." ”
Xia Qingyang was silent when he heard this.
The atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and Ning Changhe hurriedly said: "Qingyang has a star escape, when the time comes, let's hide in the star escape, and we don't have to be afraid of any fog." ”
Lan Shicheng also smiled: "What I said is, I forgot about this stubble." ”
Xia Qingyang suddenly shook his head and sighed: "No, you are right, this fog does need to be dealt with carefully, fortunately, Brother Fang Cai Shicheng reminded me of one thing, when I was trapped in the underground of the Mythology Academy, I had encountered a similar fog, and it was also a step-by-step crisis for the Perfect Soul Master to go deep into it." ”
"Is there such a thing?" Xia Qingyang rarely mentioned the matter of the Exiled Land, so it was the first time Yaxuan had heard of it.
Xia Qingyang nodded, as if he had thought of something in his heart, but he couldn't grasp that key node, so he simply shook his head to clear up his complicated thoughts, returned to the action in front of him, and said: "It's best not to use the star escape as a last resort, otherwise even if you are safe, it will not be convenient to set up the formation, so you still have to adapt to the situation at that time, if it is really necessary, I will sacrifice the star escape as soon as possible." ”
Everyone thought so, the purpose of everyone came to arrange the Jiuyang Sealing Array, and naturally there was no way to set up the formation in the Star Escape.
Xia Qingyang continued: "Actually, I want to use your means to have a way to protect yourself in even the most dangerous situation, so what I want to say is not this, I want to ask you, if there is a conflict between the formation and self-protection, what choice should I make?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone finally understood that Xia Qingyang's babbling was actually for this, and they couldn't help but bow their heads and ponder, no one shouted that they would complete the formation as soon as they came up, not even Yin Mingyue.
Bold words are easy to say, but many times they have no meaning, and when they are really faced with the choice of life and death, there are not many people who can calmly abandon life and death.
To everyone's surprise, it was Ruolong who was the first to speak: "You all know the special situation of me and Jingfeng, no matter what the truth is, the dean has a great favor to the two of us, if we can complete the formation, we can take any risk." ”
Jingfeng didn't speak, but just held Ruolong's hand tightly.
Mortal Moon was the second to speak: "I can't promise that I will give up my life for the sake of setting up the formation, but I certainly won't be the first to retreat, no matter what danger I encounter. ”
"Me too. Ning Changhe's third statement was simple and powerful.
Lei Sheng continued: "I listen to Brother Qingyang. ”
Lan Shicheng said with a smile: "I am the worst here in strength, and I am the first to die, I can only promise not to hold everyone back." ”
Yaxuan naturally doesn't need to make a statement.
Xia Qingyang sighed: "I already know your intentions, judging from the attitudes of several seniors, it must be very important to arrange this Jiuyang Sealing Array, I personally owe them a lot, so I will not back down until I have to." ”
"Everyone, hurry up and adjust your condition, and we'll set off in half an hour. Xia Qingyang gave an order.
In fact, there is nothing to adjust, just simply sort out the materials that may be used, and then familiarize yourself with the formation method of the Jiuyang Sealing Great Array.
When the time came, everyone got up with Xia Qingyang, each sacrificed a flying Horcrux, and came to the top of the pit.
The fog here is not too thick, and with the eyes of these people, you can see a depth of several hundred meters below.
Xia Qingyang asked Jin Fat to send a few demon beasts to lead the way below, and everyone gathered in a circle, no more than a few meters away from each other, and at the same time began to slowly fall.
