Chapter Twenty-Three: The Quiet Qinglian Lake

South of Luoyin City, on Health Avenue.

A black off-road car driving in the wind and rain, followed by a giant transporter, looks rather eerie.

At this time, there were three young men sitting in the off-road vehicle, all about thirty years old, wearing black trench coats.

Among the three, the two people sitting in the front row looked a little solemn, looking ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

The man sitting in the back looked much more relaxed, still eating in his mouth.

I saw that he suddenly looked at the person sitting in front of the co-pilot, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, tell me about you, the tasks have been released, since we Qingyun City have taken it, we will handle it, you still have to come in person, and you sent Lao Liu away, just to save that little reward?" ”

The man known as Brother Zhao had a slightly rough figure, and when he heard this, he hummed: "As for the surname Li, our Luoyin City is not as big as your Qingyun City, and we don't have so many idle resources.

And I already stated when I released the task, I only need one martial artist at the peak of the third grade, what do you mean by two of you, deliberately showing the strength of your Qingyun City in front of me? ”

Brother Zhao's name is Zhao Wu, and he is the leader of the special investigation team in Luoyin City.

The person in the back seat was Li Nanxing, a member of the special investigation team of Qingyun City, which is adjacent to Luoyin City.

This person, like him, is also the strength of the peak of the three grades.

Because of the limited strength of Luoyin City, he recently released the task of Qinglian Lake, and was picked up by Qingyun City.

Li Nanxing is here to deal with Qinglian Lake with him today.

To be honest, it takes a lot of resources to invite a martial artist who is at the peak of the third grade, and Zhao Wu is still distressed.

If it weren't for the fact that he wasn't sure to solve the two guys in Qinglian Lake by himself, he would have wanted to go on it alone.

Li Nanxing couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.

"Brother Zhao, you think too much, I have worked with Lao Liu for many years, and we are familiar with each other, but I just think that the two of us will work together to complete the task more easily, and there is absolutely no other meaning."

Zhao Wu pouted and said, "What, do you think my strength is not as good as his Liu Datou?" Or a competition? ”

Li Nanxing hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, this is not necessary, there will be a big battle later, and you have to save some strength." ”

In terms of strength, he and Liu Datou are really not Zhao Wu's opponents.

"Humph!" Zhao Wu snorted coldly and ignored him no longer.

The vehicle quickly drove to the edge of Qinglian Lake, and the three of them got out of the car.

Zhao Wu looked at the calm surface of the lake, and said to the other person beside him: "You watch from the shore, and when the fight starts for a while, pay attention to controlling the restless low-level demon beasts." ”

The man nodded.

"What do you say, go straight down?" At this time, Li Nanxing on the side looked at him.

Zhao Wu gave him a blank look, then took down a box from the car and opened it in front of everyone.

Li Nanxing looked inside, and there was a grass with seven leaves, all blue and purple, and there were pale gold stripes on the veins.

His eyes froze: "Cordata cordata!" ”

Zhao Wu said with a smile: "It's the cordata grass, it's too dangerous to go directly into the water, with it, those two demon beasts will naturally come over by themselves." ”

Li Nanxing nodded, this is true, the cordata has a fatal temptation to the demon beasts in the water, even the third-level demon beasts can't resist its temptation.

Placing the cordata close to the shore of the lake, the two began to stand by and wait for the rabbit to get up.

……

Time passed slowly.

Ten minutes later, the two were motionless and patient.

……

Half an hour later, Zhao Wu's expression changed slightly.

For such a long time, the aura of the cordata has been enough to spread to most of Qinglian Lake, and it shouldn't be without a reaction.

Wait?

……

An hour later, there was still no movement.

Zhao Wu couldn't figure it out at all.

This is a cordata grass, even if it doesn't attract those two third-level demon beasts, it shouldn't even attract an ordinary fish and shrimp.

Something must have gone wrong.

His brow furrowed.

At this time, Li Nanxing on the side yawned and looked at him with strange eyes.

Said faintly: "You can't be fake and shoddy this day, right?" ”

Of course, he was just joking, and with the eyesight of the two, they couldn't tell the truth of the greengrass that day.

But the blame is here, the cordata is real this day, but why is there no monster or even ordinary fish approaching?

"Could it be that all the creatures in Qinglian Lake are dead?" Li Nanxing said tentatively.

Zhao Wu couldn't help but roll his eyes.

After thinking about it, he said: "I can't wait, while the rain is still falling, there are no ordinary people nearby, we must solve them as soon as possible, otherwise when the rain stops, someone will pass by, and it will inevitably hurt the innocent." ”

He immediately put away the cordata grass, took out a silver-white long sword from the trunk of the car, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go, get into the water." ”

He jumped straight into the water.

Li Nanxing followed suit and jumped down.

At the bottom of Qinglian Lake, the two of them were wrapped in an invisible air cover, draining the water and moving quickly.

But half an hour later, they were confused again.

What's the situation?

The two stopped in front of a fountain that was emitting a faint aura, and their eyes looked at each other, and they both saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

Along the way, not only did they not see a single demon beast, but they also didn't even see an ordinary fish and shrimp.

The creatures in Qinglian Lake seemed to have disappeared in an instant.

Even this fountain that exudes spiritual energy does not have a single demon beast in front of it, which is too abnormal.

After the two explored again for half an hour, they still found nothing, and finally had no choice but to go ashore.

Zhao Wu and the two of them didn't move for more than an hour, and the person waiting on the shore was already a little anxious, so he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and asked, "Team leader, how is it?" ”

Zhao Wu shook his head, his face depressed.

"It's really weird, such a big Qinglian Lake, I haven't seen a single fish, it's too abnormal."

Li Nanxing was also a little puzzled.

"Brother Zhao, you have no problem with your intelligence, right? I'm sure there's a monster in there. ”

Zhao Wu said angrily: "Nonsense, I came to investigate in person yesterday, and I can't be wrong." ”

"What about this ......"

Li Nanxing spread his hands, not knowing what to say.

Zhao Wu sighed, "Forget it, let's go back first, it's not a way to continue to wait here now." ”

When Li Nanxing heard this, he thought about it, and said hesitantly: "That...... Brother Zhao, you see, although we haven't encountered a third-level demon beast, we ......"

"Don't think about it." Zhao Wu naturally knew what he was thinking, and directly interrupted him.

But this time, after all, others spent a lot of time exploring Qinglian Lake with him.

His tone was much more polite, and he said with a smile: "Lao Li, you also know that my Luoyin City is poor, and I am poor and will soon rely on your Qingyun City to live, you have to be considerate of me." ”

When the words fell, he patted his chest again and said: "In this way, I will invite you and Lao Liu to have a big dinner tonight, even if you compensate for this trip, you can choose the place, and you can order the wine and food, how about it, it's interesting enough." ”

"You're still an iron rooster." Li Nanxing looked at his face, shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

"Okay, that's it." Zhao Wu clapped his hands and said with a smile.

The two tugged and tugged, and soon left the place in a car.

The surroundings were quiet again.

About half an hour later, in the center of Qinglian Lake, a cyan head slowly surfaced, looking at the direction where Zhao Wu and the others left, his pupils shimmered.

It was the green python that had just been married.

When Zhao Wu and the others appeared near Qinglian Lake, the green python sensed it.

It still remembered Lin Chen's order, and in order not to clash with these two people, it simply drove away all the creatures around it.

But unexpectedly, these two people actually took out something like the cordata cordata, but fortunately, its cultivation is advanced and can resist the temptation of the cordata cordata.

and secretly suppressed the aura of the cordata again, which did not cause the demon beast to be restless.

But after that, these two people had to inch in, and they actually went into the water again, which really made them angry enough, and they all wanted to go up and kill Ya.

However, it still held back, and with a higher realm than the two, it once again controlled the water creatures to avoid the two.

In this way, the two were finally sent away.

It was now finally at ease, and then slowly dived again, disappearing into the lake.

Qinglian Lake regained its calm.
