Chapter 18: Father Su's Worries
Following the direction of his finger, a crimson light flickered not far away. Su Yun pulled Xiao Lan to the front and found that it was a crystal clear tree fruit. The fruit hung high in the tops of an ancient tree, constantly radiating strange magical powers.
Lu shouted happily: "It is worthy of Uncle Ben, I found such a precious spiritual treasure at a glance." Then he jumped on the branch of the tree to pick the fruit. Unexpectedly, as soon as it reached out its hand, it fell down with a strange scream as if it had been shocked, but fortunately, Neil changed form in time and summoned several tree vines to catch it.
He grinned in pain and crawled out of the vines with a curse. "His grandmother's, what the hell is this. A broken fruit, he dared to sneak attack Uncle Ben. ”
Su Yun glanced at it, and secretly said You swaggered over to pick people's houses, and even said that it sneaked attack, so you want to be ashamed. He held his chin and looked at the tree fruit, and after a while, he said his judgment: "This should be a spirit fruit with its own innate magic circle, which is extraordinary." You should have just made a rash move and touched this defensive circle before you were attacked. ”
He rubbed his sore buttocks, and said disapprerovingly: "Mr. Su, are you kidding? A broken tree fruit can still produce a magic circle, and those array mages must not be ashamed to commit suicide." ”
Xiao Lan took Su Yun's hand and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, I heard Captain Ji Ning say that there is indeed such a natural formation, which is usually formed by a special terrain environment. And in the process of generation, some powerful spiritual creatures will also form formations due to changing the surrounding magic fluctuations. ”
Su Yun nodded and looked up at the spirit fruit: "Yes, the environment around here is no different from other places, so the only explanation is that this spirit fruit contains an extremely large amount of power, so it has formed a natural magic circle." He paused, looking back at the spirit bird's corpse, "And I suspect that the inexplicably large and aggressive Chillfeather Sparrow was born because of its influence. ”
Lu touched the skull of his head and said stupidly: "Having said so much, how should we take this good thing down" can't be cut down with the tree. ”
Su Yun looked at it with a playful look in his eyes. He was stared at uncomfortably, and asked blankly, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"Should I say you're smart, or stupid?" Su Yun looked at the mung bean cake elf with a smile on his face, "Call you stupid, you thought of the best way; ”
His eyes widened, and he screamed: "First of all, in this dangerous environment, it is very irrational to spend energy and time to crack the magic circle, not to mention the painstaking efforts, if one is accidentally injured by this, it will be a great gain outweighs the loss." Secondly, each natural circle is unique and has extremely high research value, and the circle itself is very valuable. So we don't have to destroy it at all, and we can take the whole tree back and plan for it, which is generally considered the best way to deal with it. ”
As a scholar, Su Yun is naturally familiar with this kind of theoretical knowledge, and when he talks about it, he is the truth, and Xiao Lan and Rong were stunned when they heard it, especially Xiao Lan, who looked at his man's eyes with a sparkle of light, and his face was full of admiration and admiration.
After making a plan, the two pets began to cut down the tree. Under the joint force, within a few minutes, the towering ancient tree was cut down and fell down with a bang. Su Yun stepped forward to check the spirit fruit and the magic circle, and after making sure that there was no problem, he turned to Xiao Lan and said, "I have no place for my storage space, how about putting this thing with you?"
Xiao Lan was stunned for a moment, and then her heart was sweet. She feigned composure and replied, "Well, I have enough space here." After speaking, he raised his hand and put the ancient tree into his storage space, walked to Su Yun's side, and gently hugged him: "This natural magic circle is placed in the storage magic circle, there will be no problem, right?"
Su Yun smiled dumbly, stretched out his finger and scratched her Qiong's nose: "Fool, the formed magic circle has a high stability, unless it receives a strong magic strike, it will not be damaged, don't worry about this." ”
Xiao Lan smiled and threw herself into her lover's arms. Looking at these two goods showing affection, he helplessly sighed to Neil on the side: "Yes, we are redundant again." ”
The lovers got tired of it for a while, and then remembered that they had to rush back as soon as possible, and hurriedly called Neil and Rong on the road. He was very dissatisfied with this, and kept chattering along the way.
Soon after they left, a slender black shadow rushed to the stump of the felled tree like an arrow from a string, and circled around the place several times, as if looking for something. After a long time of fruitless searching, the black shadow flew again
Withdrawn, followed by a hoarse roar from the depths of the forest.
In Saiyan Town, in Su Yun's home, the warm and peaceful atmosphere of weekdays has completely disappeared, replaced by heaviness and depression. Father Su looked at his daughter, Su Lin, who was sitting in front of him with a look of regret and panic at this time, wanted to get angry, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed and let out a long sigh. Seeing him like this, Su's mother put her hand on the back of his hand and asked, "Son and his father, is this matter so serious?"
Father Su shook his head: "The Zhao family has been in business for generations, and his family's auction house and shops are not only open in Saiyan Town, but also expand to a large area around it, and even reach as far as the royal capital. If it's just that his Zhao family is powerful, I'm not afraid. But the problem is that Zhao Zhiguang now worships Sun Chengwen as his teacher - he is a very famous professional in the vicinity, and with him behind him, Zhao Zhiguang can do anything. He sighed heavily again and continued, "Actually, this matter is not what I am most worried about at the moment, no matter how strong Zhao Zhiguang is, it is a big deal to let Xiaoyun not participate in the competition, at most he will end up with a laughing stock." But now, I'm worried about his life!"
Su Mu and Su Lin were shocked when they heard this, Su Mu's hands instantly clenched, and asked cautiously: "Although Xiaoyun is usually a little naughty, she never causes trouble, how can she worry about her life." ”
Father Su sighed again: "I just received a notice today that in the near future, I will strictly guard all roads leading to the secluded forest, and it is forbidden to go to the secluded forest to carry out any activities. The notice to the masses will be visible tomorrow morning. His eyes were filled with worry, "I asked the mayor that this is an order from the star, and it is a death order, and it is extremely prohibitive. The mayor said that he didn't know exactly what was going on, but the general situation was that a very ferocious and terrifying spirit beast had broken into the forest. Xiaoyun hasn't seen anyone for two days in a row, and the day before yesterday he personally said that he was going to practice for the big competition in the courtyard, I'm afraid... His face was heavy, and he gritted his teeth, not daring to continue.
"No!" Su Mu and Su Lin shouted in unison, and the latter was so anxious that he stood up from his seat. "Brother will be fine, he has never been a reckless person, even if he goes to the secluded forest, he will definitely not go deeper, and he will not meet that spirit beast. ”
Father Su shook his head and slowly stood up. His head hung slightly, and there was no half of the gleam in his eyes: "I hope so." I'm going to get up early tomorrow to make rounds and go to bed first. Then he shuffled back to the room with heavy steps.
Su Lin and her mother looked around speechlessly, and could only show bitter smiles.
