On the top floor of the castle tower, in Rose's room.

"Rose!" Luo Qingyun sat next to Rose and asked, "How are you feeling now?"

Rose shook her head: "No, it's all up to Sister Qingyun to take care of me by my side." ”

"Where!" Luo Qingyun blushed a little, scratched his head and said, "Actually, I didn't do anything, I just walked around here in the morning, and I was in a hurry." ”

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and Chen Fan and Yue Wuya rushed in.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Luo Qingyun immediately apologized to Chen Fan.

"Why are you apologizing to me?" Chen Fan asked puzzled.

"I saw that you seemed to be angry, so I apologized first. ”

"Alas...... Should I say you're useless or should I say you're cowardly?" Chen Fan said helplessly: "I'm not here to find you this time, I'm here to find Rose." ”

"Looking for me?"

"Yes!" Chen Fan said: "After my deep thought, I need your help to save people in the Mira Forest, are you willing to go with me?"

"Need Rose to save people?" Luo Qingyun exclaimed, "But to go to such a dangerous place......

"Sister Qingyun!" Rose made a stopping gesture and said, "I'm not afraid, Brother Chen Fan, if you need me to go, I will definitely go to help." ”

Chen Fan said: "But your brother doesn't seem to let you go, so I'll ask your opinion, if you want to go, then everything will be easy." “

At this moment, Rod also rushed in, and he shouted at him, "Brother Chen......"

"Brother!" Before Rod could finish speaking, Rose interrupted Rode: "You don't have to say any more. I am willing to go to Mira Forest with Brother Chen Fan. ”

"No, Rose, I'm not here to stop you from going!" Rhodes said, "Brother Chen, can you take me with you without letting Miss Luo go?" I hope you can ......."

"No!" Chen Fan refused sharply. said: "Luo Qingyun is much more suitable than you, and he is superior to you in terms of both support and combat power." ”

"But as a sixteen-year-old girl, I still couldn't rest assured. ”

"Otherwise!" Chen Fan proposed: "You have a duel with Luo Qingyun, whoever wins, I will choose whoever goes with you, what do you think?"

"Huh?" Luo Qingyun exclaimed, "Chen Fan, do you want me to fight against Rhodes?"

"Brother Chen. You want me to bully a little girl?"

Chen Fan said: "It's still uncertain who bullied whom, do you agree?"

Rod pondered for a moment and replied resolutely: "If you can go if you win, then okay, I agree!"

"Uh!" Luo Qingyun shouted, "What kind of rotten plot is this?"

"Wait a minute......"

"Wait a minute!" was when Rose was about to say something. Luo Qingyun immediately shouted first.

Everyone immediately stared at Luo Qingyun.

Chen Fan asked coldly, "What do you want?"

Luo Qingyun said solemnly: "I don't agree with this competition!"

"Why?" Chen Fan was puzzled.

"Miss Luo, do you mean that I will definitely lose?" Rod said indignantly: "Although I lost to the patriarch of the underworld, I asked myself that I would not be so weak that I couldn't even win against a little girl. ”

"Don't you think it's too strange?" Luo Qingyun asked rhetorically, "Why didn't we fight the enemy, but we actually fought ourselves? Isn't it too strange for you to lose your cool like this? Don't you think this competition is ridiculous?"

"That's it, big brother!" Rose also persuaded, "You have always been calm, why are you so impatient now?"

"Because ......" Seeing his sister's worried look, Rod quickly explained: "Because it's all about protecting your safety!"

"Brother is lying!" Rose said with tears in her eyes.

"I ......"

"Actually, my brother doesn't want Brother Chen Fan to look down on you, right? Do you think that you are the patriarch of the Mengshi clan after all, how can you not be as good as a sixteen-year-old girl. And to say that they want to protect me is just to make excuses for this vanity!"

"I ...... Actually......"

"Such a brother, Rose hates it the most!"

"Nope. No!" Hearing that his heart was revealed by Rose, Rod knelt down in front of Rose as if he had lost his strength and said, "I...... I ......"

"Brother Rod!" Luo Qingyun stepped forward and reassured: "Actually, I can't blame you for this, I believe that you did this step to protect Rose, it's just that you used the wrong method." ”

"Miss Luo. Rod looked at Luo Qingyun blankly, not knowing what to say for a while.

Rose also knelt in front of Rhodes and said, "Brother." I know you wanted to go with me out of concern at first, but my brother only twisted this mind until the end. ”

"Rose. I...... I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Rod bowed to Rose on the ground. He said excitedly, probably because he felt remorseful, so his voice kept shaking.

"Brother!" Rose helped Rod up and said, "I didn't blame my brother, and I didn't really mind what my brother said just now, so my brother doesn't have to blame himself, just stand up first." ”

"Rose!" Rod slowly stood up with Rose's support.

"Rod!" Luo Qingyun said: "As the patriarch, you must preside over the overall affairs of the clan, if you leave, if there is any sudden incident in your life, and there are no dragons in the Dora clan, what do you say about this?"

“......”

"I don't think Chen Fan made such an arrangement because your strength was weaker than Luo Qingyun, but because he considered that the clan could not be without a king for a day!" Luo Qingyun glanced at Chen Fan and said, "Are you right, Chen Fan?"

In fact, Luo Qingyun knew that with Chen Fan's character, how could he think about other people's affairs, this team member's choice must only be chosen out of the needs of the task, and Luo Qingyun said this just to think that Rod should not be so persistent.

"This ......" Chen Fan saw Luo Qingyun's eyes, and immediately understood, and replied reluctantly: "That's it, that's what I think." In Chen Fan's opinion. She didn't want to do any competition before she went, just now because Rod forced herself too hard, so she made this decision, but she knew that Luo Qingyun was now solving the siege for everyone, so she also cooperated.

"But do you really want Miss Luo to go with you?" Rod was puzzled, "Miss Luo is just a little girl. Are you really going to take her to such a dangerous place?"

"Rod!" Yue Wuya put his arm on Rod's shoulder and said, "I said you really underestimate this girl, don't look at her like this, this girl is actually very powerful!"

When Rod heard Yue Wuya say this, he immediately looked at Luo Qingyun carefully with puzzled eyes, and still asked puzzledly: "What is so powerful about Miss Luo, forgive me for being shallow." Can't see one or two. ”

Chen Fan suddenly said coldly: "Qingyun, you are to blame for all this." ”

"Blame, blame me, why?"

"Didn't I tell you not to pretend to be a child?

Luo Qingyun said indignantly: "Eh, this is determined by my personality and appearance, if I want to be as petty and despicable, damn and cruel as Brother Chen Fan." I can't do it!"

Chen Fan pulled Luo Qingyun's face hard and said, "If you don't say these eight adjectives, you will be uncomfortable, right?"

"Hmm...... It hurts, it hurts, it's harder than the previous ones. Luo Qingyun poked his red face and complained in a low voice.

"Miss Luo!" Rod said: "Sister Luo Qingyun is just a little girl no matter how she looks, you say that she is very capable, it is really a little unbelievable. ”

"Brother Rhodes!" Luo Qingyun said, "Do you remember the last time I fought Sora?"

Rod thought for a moment and said, "Of course I remember!"

"That's good! So, in a crisis. I have a lot of potential!"

"I see!" Rhodes nodded: "Since that's the case, then I'm relieved." ”

Chen Fan asked, "That means, do you agree with my decision?"

Rod nodded. said: "Then everything will be handed over to Brother Chen." ”

The next day, the sky was overcast, and the sword made of sunlight could not penetrate the shield formed by the clouds, so the sky was gray today, and the cold wind brought a chill to the earth, and it seemed that the messenger of winter would soon descend on the world.

According to the original plan. Chen Fan, Luo Qingyun, Yue Wuya and Rose went out today to rescue the trapped people in the Mira Forest. This is the city gate to the east of Star City.

Rhodes, Good, the elders, and some soldiers and civilians also came to see him off.

"Brother Chen!" Rhodes said, "Are you sure their lair is in the east and not in the north?"

Chen Fan smiled confidently: "Although I don't know why they committed crimes in the north, if all the people of the Forest Detection Team 6 are captured by the enemy." The deranged soldier escaped, and you found him in the east, that is, the enemy's lair in the east. ”

Rod frowned and said, "We also discussed this last night, and I think it makes sense for you to say that." ”

"Rod, don't worry!" Chen Fan said: "Even if we guess wrong, there is still Rose, and you can know the enemy's location by using mind reading, so you don't have to worry about this matter." ”

Rod nodded and said to Rose: "Rose, you have to be careful in everything, if you don't think it's okay, don't force yourself, you must come back safely." ”

"Brother, I know, you can rest assured, with Sister Qingyun, Brother Chen Fan and Brother Wuya protecting me, I won't be in any danger. ”

Luo Qingyun said: "Don't worry, Rod, we will definitely protect Rose and won't let her have a little scar." ”

Rod nodded and replied, "Miss Luo, Brother Chen, then I'll leave everything to you." ”

Chen Fan nodded and said, "Don't worry!"

After speaking, the three of them finally left Xingyao City under the gaze of the Mengshi clan.

In late autumn, the leaves of the trees are supposed to wither, and even if they don't, they will turn yellow and crumbling, but the forest of Mira is very peculiar, still lush and green, and you don't feel the change of seasons at all.

Chen Fan and the four of them left Xingyao City, continued to the east, and after half an hour's journey, they walked through a forest surrounded by yellow leaves, and finally came to the border of the Mira Forest.

Everyone was shocked when they came here, because the two regions are closely bordered, and there is no obvious geographical difference, but the scenery of the previous step and the next step is completely different. At the edge of this Mira Forest, all four of you can see a large green atmosphere in front of the forest surrounded by yellow, as if you have only taken a step forward and gone to another world. It feels very strange and special.

"Mira Forest ahead?" Luo Qingyun looked at the eight big characters on the big stone monument in the middle of the road, "Mira Forest, do not enter in danger", and asked nervously, although they came here along the road, but because this road may have been abandoned for a long time, it is now overgrown with weeds and covered with leaves. The way it used to be is gone.

Rose nodded and said, "Yes, there is the Mira Forest in front, which is where we are going." ”

Moon Wuya looked at the Mira Forest in front of him. He asked in amazement, "Isn't it autumn, and why are the trees of the Mira Forest still so green?"

Rose explained: "I don't know much about this, but it can be God's arrangement. ”

Chen Fan glanced ahead and said, "Okay, there is Mira Forest in front, I think it should be very dangerous, you had better be prepared to face it at any time." ”

Hearing Chen Fan say this, Luo Qingyun and the others couldn't help but touch the hilt of the nameless sword, thinking: Since you are here this time. You have to get people back!

Chen Fan glanced at the expressions of the three people behind him with his eyes, and knew that they had made up their minds, so he smiled. said, "Then let's go in now!"

"Yes!" the three of them crossed the yellow-green border without hesitation and stepped into the forest of Mira.

The four of them walked in the Mira Forest and found that the plants here were really surprisingly large, the grass growing on the ground was at least three meters high, which could completely cover the whole person, and some small yellow flowers that were originally small on the outside. It's the size of the palm of your hand. And the most exaggerated is the towering giant trees overhead, each with a radius of at least ten meters. The height cannot be estimated, and the top is simply not visible from the bottom up. Moreover, the branches and foliage were so dense that they could not get a drop of water, so even if Chen Fan and the others set off in the morning and came to the Mira Forest, the surrounding environment was as if it was night, and the concept of time was gone.

Because the environment here is dark, and if you light a torch, you are worried about being seen by monsters, so all four of them wear special glasses, which are similar in function to night vision goggles, and they are all used to see dark things clearly.

The four of them marched in a row, the formation had actually been discussed from the beginning, Yue Wuya was good at searching in a large area, so he knew where the swamp was, where the flat land was, and he could also find out where the enemy was hidden and then avoid it, so it was only appropriate for Yue Wuya to take the lead.

Luo Qingyun ranked second, because Luo Qingyun reacted relatively quickly, and if he knew that Yue Wuya was in danger, he could immediately detect it, and then notify his teammates in the rear.

Rose walked in the third place in the team, and Rose was placed here not because Rose had any special role, but because Rose was relatively weak, so it had to be protected by Chen Fan personally.

Chen Fan is behind the palace, because in this way, he can see which of the team members in front of him is in danger at the first time, and he can come forward to rescue in time, and at the same time, he is not afraid of the enemy sneaking up from behind.

Since they don't know where the so-called prison cell is, they can only keep going inside, because since there is a prison cell, there must be buildings, and they are groping their way forward in the forest with this kind of luck psychology, and Chen Fan has made marks on the trees along the road so as not to get lost, which is the basic common sense of entering the forest.

It's about two o'clock in the afternoon, and they've been walking for more than four hours, although it's rumored that there are many monsters in Mira Forest, but along the way, except for one or two so-called monsters that were like pigs and were messed with by Chen Fan in two or three clicks, they didn't encounter anything else.

In fact, they want to encounter monsters more than they don't encounter monsters, not because they want to add much excitement to this adventure, but if they meet those orcs, they can capture one or two alive, and use Rose's mind-reading skills to inquire about information, so they don't have to look around aimlessly like this.

Although they were anxious to rescue people, it seemed unrealistic to search for people like this aimlessly, and when it was almost evening, everyone still had no clue after a day of searching in the forest.

"I can't imagine that this forest is so big!" Luo Qingyun said: "After looking for a day, I can't find any clues, damn it!"

"Miss Luo!" Yue Wuya said, "You can try it with your unique crystal energy perception! if you know the location of crystal energy, you may be able to know the enemy's lair." ”

"No, I've tried this method a long time ago!" Luo Qingyun said, "Because there are energy fluctuations of crystal energy all over here, it is difficult for me to grasp where these energies are coming from. ”

Chen Fan didn't pay attention to Luo Qingyun's conversation, looked around, and said, "I think it's really strange here. ”

Luo Qingyun said: "I also feel strange!"

"Do you feel it too?" Chen Fan was also stunned when he heard Luo Qingyun say this.

"Of course, isn't it strange that the trees here are so big?"

"Stupid, I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about why is there the power of crystal energy everywhere here?"

"What's so strange about power everywhere? ”

"No!" Yue Wuya continued: "Indeed, where there is crystal energy, there will indeed be the power of crystal energy, but crystal energy should only be 'a little', even if it is the power of scattered areas, there will always be a place where it is stronger." ”

"That's right!" Chen Fan added: "But the strength here seems to be very even, and I can't feel where it is strong or where it is weak!"

Luo Qingyun asked, "That's why we can't detect the location of the crystal energy?"

"Exactly!"

"Brother Chen Fan!" Rose suddenly said, "Are we constantly spinning in place?"

"Spinning in place?" Chen Fan smiled confidently and said with a smile: "How is it possible, I have made marks on the trees along the way, and if I don't see the markers, it proves that we are not spinning in place." ”

"Is that really the case?" said Rose, puzzled, "Is it my own psychological effect?"

"Rose, what do you mean?"

"We Dora have the ability to perceive trees, and when we see each tree as if we were recognizing people, we can remember it at once, so that we can live in the forest and not get lost. "But I thought it was strange from the beginning, but I thought it was a delusion, so I didn't say it, but now it's different, and I'm sure I've seen the trees here at least five times," Rose explained. ”

"What!" everyone was shocked when they heard this. (To be continued)
