Chapter Twenty-Nine: Old Acquaintances
The next day, it was still hazy and there was a cacophony of voices in the camp. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Optimus was cleaning up the clutter at the camp, he woke up early, or maybe he hadn't slept at all. Although the border of Dragon Valley was not dangerous enough to require someone to be on duty at night to sleep, he still felt the need to do so, because there were some things that could not be gambled, such as life.
After last night's madness, the small camp was already in chaos, and the drunk Qingkong and Jin Fat Man and others actually slept directly on the ground, and the bodies of several people were on top of each other.
"Uh......" Maybe he was woken up by the noise, Qingkong was the first to wake up, rubbing his slightly aching forehead, he saw Qingtian's constantly busy body, even he didn't expect to suddenly say, "What are you doing?"
Optimus froze when he heard his greeting, but then his face remained unfazed, and he replied calmly, "Put out the bonfire, and then clean it up to avoid leaving the fire source and causing disaster." ”
Perhaps the answer was too formal, but he paused and continued, "You drank too much yesterday, and your head hurts, right?" I found a stream just now, not far from the west side of the forest, so you can go wash and sober up." ”
After letting out an "oh", he moved the thick legs of the fat golden man on his body, and dragged his somewhat tired body to the west.
Qingtian watched as Sky's back disappeared into the forest before he looked away and began to clean up the camp again.
Entering the forest on the left, Optimus followed the direction Optimus had told him for a long distance before he heard the sound of rushing water.
"You're flying here......, aren't you?" he grumbled, but he didn't know he had taken the wrong path, so much so that he had taken a detour.
Sky quickened his pace, and finally saw the stream, which was located below a steep slope in the forest.
He was about to go down and wash his face, but suddenly he heard a soft song mixed with the rushing stream. Despite the noise of the stream, the language in which Qingkong could still hear the singing was not the common language spoken by their Terrans, but a language that he seemed to have heard somewhere.
"Are there any foreigners here?" Qingkong was shocked, and his nerves immediately tensed.
He slowly slid down the steep slope until he could see everything about the stream, and then he stopped and hid behind a tree that grew diagonally on the slope.
The song sounded again, and Qingkong immediately looked in the direction where the song came from, and saw that in the middle of the stream, there was actually a figure treading water and bathing.
This person was facing Qingkong on his side, and most of his body was soaked in the stream, revealing only his slender jade shoulders and not long yellow hair, and he could conclude that the person taking the bath should be a woman, and he should not be very old, because the small breasts that loomed were not particularly turbulent.
"Could it be the original inhabitants of Dragon Valley?" Sky guessed.
"Don't bother them......" Qingkong was not particularly interested in the little girl who was taking a bath, and was about to turn away, when the girl who was suddenly taking a bath turned around and faced the direction where Qingkong was, and when Qingkong saw the girl's face, his heart trembled suddenly, and the hand holding the leaning tree suddenly became stronger somehow.
"Squeak ......" The not thin trunk was directly pinched off by Qingkong.
In an instant, there was nothing to grasp in the sky, the soles of his feet slipped, and his body fell straight down the slope.
"Ah......h
"Ahh
Two different voices suddenly resounded near the stream, startling all kinds of birds.
Qingkong, who had fallen into the water, struggled vigorously because he couldn't swim yet.
"Grandma Di, how can I say that he is also a strong man now, and he will not drown in the stream. Huh?...... Creek" After scolding in his heart, Qing Kong suddenly realized that it was a small stream, so he stopped struggling and slowly reached the bottom of the stream with his feet.
Sure enough, after stepping on the bottom, Qingkong slowly stood up, only to find that the stream had only reached his chest.
After a few breaths of relief, Qingkong remembered the girl just now, so he hurriedly turned around. But he searched around but couldn't find her, perhaps frightened and ran away.
"Still so good at ......running," he remembered the same blue eyes as himself just now, and said with a wry smile.
Seeing that the sky was completely light, Qingkong washed his face in the stream, then slowly fluttered to the shore, shook off the water on his body, and walked into the woods towards the camp.
After Qingkong's figure completely disappeared into the forest, a delicate face appeared behind a rock on the other side of the stream, and a pair of emerald eyes stared at the direction where Qingkong disappeared, and murmured with a little joy: "It's really him......"
When Sky returned to their small camp, he found that everyone had already packed up, as if they were waiting for him alone.
"I said, boss, you've been washing your face for a long time," the fat golden man saw Qingkong from a long distance, and when he got closer, he found that he was wet, "uh...... You're taking another shower?"
Seeing everyone's puzzled eyes, Qingkong smiled awkwardly and said, "That...... The creek was so slippery that I slipped without paying attention. ”
"It's good to be back, go change into clean clothes, and we'll go right away. Seeing that Qingkong hadn't come back for so long, he was going to look for him, but when he saw him come back safely, he was relieved, and he didn't care why he got wet.
When Qingkong changed his clothes, everyone got up and walked to the entrance of the forest in front of them and stopped, facing the intricate path inside, everyone did not know which way to go.
Optimus, who was walking in front, took out a small map from his arms, it was a map made of magic, and it had a domineering name, Blood Map. The reason why it is called a blood map is because by dripping the blood of a person of the same blood on the map, it is possible to show their location and footprints on the blood map.
In addition to the blood map, Optimus also took out a transparent vial from his bosom, which contained a few drops of red liquid. He then found a hidden spot at the entrance to the forest and buried it in.
After all this, Qingtian said to a few people behind him: "I buried my blood here, this vial has a special texture that can ensure that the blood is fresh for a month, so that when we come back, we can find the way we came from on the blood map." ”
After speaking, Qing Tian carefully glanced at the route on the blood map, pointed to a forest path in front of him, and said, "Take this road, everyone follow closely, pay attention to the surrounding movements, any evil creature may appear here." Then he was the first to go into the dense jungle.
After seeing Optimus enter, everyone walked into the unknown forest one by one.
The light in the forest was dim, and the sunlight was blocked by the leafy ancient trees, only a few rays of light penetrated, and unknown cries sounded everywhere around, making everyone walk cautiously.
Qingkong, who was walking behind, looked at the fat man who was following him, with a hesitant look on his face.
He didn't know whether to tell him what had just happened, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided not to tell him, because even if he did, he might not believe it, not to mention that he suspected that he was dazzled.
But after walking for a few hours, it was getting late, and Qingkong still stopped Jin Ming.
"Fat man...... Where do you think the little slave of the Phantom Clan, who suddenly disappeared a few days ago, is now? Qingkong asked the fat man on the side.
"What little slave of the Phantom Clan?" the fat golden man picked a fruit from an unknown tree next to him, bright red, and wiped it with his clothes.
"It's the deer that can transform into a deer. Qingkong reminded again.
"Click. The fat golden man put the fruit in his mouth and took a hard bite to make a crisp sound.
Qingkong leaned slightly closer to the golden fat man, and said in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them, "I saw her by the stream when I washed my face in the morning." ”
Qingkong's words came into Jin Ming's ears like thunder, and the fruit in his mouth instantly fell to the ground, and after being stunned for a long time, he hurriedly grabbed Qingkong and asked in a low voice, "Is it really fake?"
Seeing the people in front of him gradually walking away, Qingkong flashed his green eyes and said, "Definitely not kidding, but it's not really her, I'm not sure." ”
The golden fat man looked at Qingkong suspiciously, "If it's really that slave, then it's an evil gate, don't you say that the entrance to this Dragon Valley is the one behind us?" When we came in, we all saw that it was heavily guarded, and even a bird didn't want to enter the passage." How did this little slave get in?"
"I mean, this is the only entrance I know, but this Dragon Valley spans the entire continent, and who knows if there are other places to enter. Qingkong replied.
Hearing Qingkong's analysis, the golden fat man thought about it and made sense, nodded and said, "If you really guessed it, this little slave of the phantom clan came in through another entrance, then...... Then why did he come to Dragon Valley? The world is so big, but he came to Dragon Valley, the forbidden land of the human race in Longtan Tiger's Den?"
Qingkong shook his head, he didn't have the cleverness of the golden fat man, where would he think so much, he just wanted to know why her eyes and himself were the same color, and what did this mean?
"Do you want to tell Young Master Qingtian about this?" the golden fat man asked tentatively when he saw Qingkong's hesitant expression.
"Don't! Don't tell anyone, it's our secret. Qingkong said very resolutely. If this matter is told to Qingtian, it will be serious, Dragon Valley has always been the territory of the human race, and if a foreign tribe breaks in, he will definitely die if he is caught.
The golden fat man only nodded when he saw Qingkong's resolute attitude, he also knew that Qingkong had a special affection for that little slave, and he could see some clues in the slave market that day.
"Let's do this first, let's go, we won't be able to catch up with them for a while. Qingkong whispered.
Just as the two of them were about to chase after the few people in front of them, suddenly a huge beast roar sounded from the forest in front of them, and both of them were shocked.
Qingkong's face was nervous, because the source of the roar was in the direction of Qingtian in front of them, so he said to the golden fat man behind him: "You find a safe place here to stay still, if I don't come back, you will return to Qingyun City the same way!"
After saying that, he ran deep into the forest in front of him.
The golden fat man obviously didn't react, but he didn't find a safe place to hide as Qingkong intended, but gritted his teeth and chased after him as fast as he could, stepping on the fruit he had just thrown and splashing some red juice.
"Xiaokong, don't you know why I came to Dragon Valley? No one can put you in danger! No one can put you in danger!"
