Chapter 11 Departure for the Galaxy
To be honest, when he went to ask Ye Zhiqiu, Xinghe had no bottom, and he wasn't sure if he would agree to let them go to the big hunt with Rong Ruo. On the one hand, it is because he has been with Ye Zhiqiu for a short time, and he can't grasp the temperament of his uncle. On the other hand, it is because the Forest of Mists is really far away from the capital.
But fortunately, in the end, Ye Zhiqiu agreed. Xinghe was pleasantly surprised, not only him, but Lan Yue and Xiaoxin were all very excited. The places he and Anton have been to in their lives are the Elven River, Jiangcheng and the capital. As for Xiaoxin and Xiaorou, they haven't even been out of the capital. This time, everyone was excited to be able to go to such a legendary place as the Misty Forest at once.
Maowen is an extremely xenophobic race, and these large cats, which resemble felines, do not welcome any visitors, and except for officials sent by the Empire, the number of people who can enter the Heart of the Mist each year can be counted on almost one hand. This style of work has clothed this race, this forest with a veil of mystery, unlike cavemen, Mao Wen's reputation outside is not bad, which makes many people curious about the city in the center of the Misty Forest, and the galaxy is of course no exception.
In addition to the excitement, Xinghe did not forget to get down to business, and Rong Ruo didn't go to the hunt to have fun, he had to come up with a truly valuable research report, which was related to whether they could get the classroom he expected.
In addition to bringing what he thought was necessary, Fauber also added a dress to his salute. It's not just him, Anton, Lanyue and Shigego all have a set. Fauber said that the hunt was a very important event, and that they had to have a sufficiently dignified costume. Those dresses that perfectly fit their bodies could not have been taken temporarily, and Xinghe thought that these clothes might have been prepared for them as New Year's gifts, but Faber didn't explain anything.
In the early morning of the next day, Xinghe heard Rong Ruo's hearty voice while still in the bed, "Lazy worms, get up quickly, or I won't wait for you!"
He opened the door and saw Lan Yue next door also opening the door, the two looked at each other and smiled, each went back to the room to change clothes, and carried their luggage.
Downstairs, Rong Ruo was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a big grin, and when she saw the two of them coming down the stairs, she was dissatisfied: "Hurry up, our trip is very rushed!"
"Miss, the genius has just dawned. Xinghe pointed helplessly to the unlit sky outside the house.
"So what. Rong Ruo turned her head unreasonably, and suddenly, she noticed something, "How many other people are there?"
"Them. Xinghe looked back upstairs, "It's probably going to be a while." ”
"Damn, don't you know that time is very tight!" Rong Ruo glared at them angrily, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but rush up to the second floor.
Suddenly there was the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping upstairs, Xinghe and Lan Yue looked at each other with a wry smile, shook their heads, and walked into the restaurant. In the restaurant, Fu Bo had already prepared breakfast for them, and Ye Zhiqiu was sitting at the dining table, drinking tea and reading the newspaper.
Xinghe and Lanyue sat down beside him, "Uncle, good morning. ”
"Good morning. Ye Zhiqiu nodded and put down the newspaper in his hand, "Everything is ready, nothing has been left behind." ”
"It's all set. Galaxy replied.
Ye Zhiqiu nodded reassuringly, "Xinghe, I know that you are a very independent child and can take care of yourself, but I still have to be verbose and pay attention to safety." ”
While they were eating breakfast slowly, the sleepy-eyed and disheveled Anton and Shigego had been herded into the dining room like sheep by Rongruo. Xiaoxin and Xiaorou walked behind with their salutes, obviously having carefully taken care of their clothes, and they were not as miserable as the two of them.
Everyone was seated at the table, including Rong Ruo, although she had obviously had breakfast, but under her vicious gaze, Xinghe could be sure that Anton had not eaten a good breakfast.
Almost as if it was tormenting, everyone finished breakfast. Rong Ruo was finally able to pull and push everyone to the gate, and Ye Zhiqiu and Fu Bo also came up to see them off, it was probably the first time that they were so far away from home, Xiaoxin and Xiaorou couldn't help but have some red eyes.
Ye Zhiqiu touched their heads, "Have fun." ”
Rong Ruo couldn't stand this atmosphere at all, so she had already run to the carriage parked in the yard, poked her head out and shouted at everyone, "Hurry up!"
Everyone walked towards the carriage helplessly, and suddenly, Ye Zhiqiu grabbed Xinghe, who was walking behind, "Xinghe, the girls will ask you to take good care of everyone." ”
Xinghe looked at the people who had already walked to the carriage and nodded firmly, "I will." ”
Lan Yue didn't rush to get into the carriage, but waited for Xinghe and Ye Zhiqiu to finish talking. The two walked side by side towards the carriage. Xinghe took her salute from Lan Yue's hand to help carry it, and when he took the salute, he noticed that she was a little distracted, "What's wrong?"
Rong Ruo looked back at Ye Zhiqiu, "Uncle seems to have something on his mind?"
Xinghe followed her gaze, and Ye Zhiqiu was looking at them with a normal expression.
"Probably my delusion. Lan Yue shook her head and got into the carriage first. Xinghe also followed with a salute.
On the carriage, Rong Ruo had already been waiting a little impatiently, and after Xinghe and Lan Yue got on the car, she couldn't wait to close the door, and at the same time said to a simplely dressed female demon spirit, "Let's go, Sister Sophia." ”
Sophia nodded and knocked on the small window of the carriage, "Martin, let's go." ”
Different from Ye Zhiqiu, the Hegu family seems to be more inclined to this traditional means of transportation, but Xinghe has to say that the space inside is much more than the outside, and Xinghe, who has already seen Valhalla's equipment in the camp outside Jiangcheng, will naturally not be surprised by this, but he didn't expect the Hegu family to be able to use this technology in the carriage, after all, he remembered that Ye Zhiqiu had told him that this technology was very costly.
After the carriage left the Ye family's old house, it galloped along the street, looking at the regressing street scene outside the window, Xiaoxin's emotions quickly adjusted, and the excitement overwhelmed the melancholy of parting, and several girls began to chat. Xinghe didn't join in, his gaze stayed on Sophia, he remembered the last time he went to Rong Ruo's house to see her, he remembered that she seemed to be the maid of the Hegu family.
Sophia noticed his gaze and met his gaze. Xinghe realized that he seemed to be a little rude, and Rong Ruo seemed to notice his embarrassment and opened her mouth to relieve the siege, "Sister Sophia will go with us on this big hunt." ”
"Hello, Miss Sophia, please take care of the rest of the journey. Xinghe followed Rong Ruo's words and said hello to the other party.
"Just call me Sophia. The other party didn't seem to be angry at his rudeness just now, but hugged Rong Ruo and said, "I should thank you for taking such good care of my family's trouble-loving young lady." ”
"Don't talk as if I'm useless. Rong Ruo huffed and took Sophia's hand away from her shoulder.
Xinghe smiled, not knowing how to talk, and suddenly he caught a glimpse of the street scene outside the window, "Hey, aren't we going to the dock?"
"Of course not. Rong Ruo grinned mysteriously.
"And where are we going?" Anton asked, turning his head.
"Guess. "Victory Square. Rong Ruo and Sophia's voices rang out at the same time.
There was a strange atmosphere in the carriage, and Rong Ruo looked at Sophia aggrievedly, who looked at her with a very innocent gaze. For a while, it wasn't just who started first, everyone couldn't help laughing.
After a short while, the carriage stopped. Martin opened the car door for everyone, and Rong Ruo carried her salute and jumped down first in a huff. Sophia smiled apologetically, then got out of the car, stood still by the door, and after everyone had gotten out of the car, she leaned into the car to make sure no one pulled anything down, then closed the door and went to tell the driver something.
At this time, there are not many pedestrians coming and going on Victory Square, and an obsidian obelisk stands quietly in the center of the square. Rong Ruo took the lead in running up with her own salute, and Xinghe led Lan Yue and them to follow.
"Aren't we going to the Misty Forest, why are we here?" Anton couldn't help but ask, not only him, but Xinghe was also curious.
It's just that Rong Ruo seems to have made up her mind to lose everyone's appetite, so she just refuses to say anything, but shouts in the direction of the carriage: "Sister Sophia, hurry up!"
Sophia trotted up and followed, while looking at Rong Ruo with disgust, and dusting her head with her little finger, "What are you doing so impatient?"
Rong Ruo stuck out her tongue and took out a colorful gem from her duffel bag, and shouted at the same time: "Hurry up!"
A dazzling rainbow light fell from the sky, and the galaxy was enveloped before he could react to anything, and the dazzling light made him subconsciously close his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was no longer on Victory Square, but on a high platform.
This change made Xinghe subconsciously start looking for Lan Yue's figure, but fortunately, everyone was standing by his side intact, and he was relieved. And the initiator of this matter still maintained the movement of holding the multicolored stone aloft, but Xinghe could clearly feel that the stone had become much darker.
"Don't mess around like this in the future. Sophia angrily flicked Rong Ruo's head with her hand again.
"Got it~" Rong Ruo covered her head and deliberately dragged the sound to the ground for a long time, looking at her appearance, Xinghe felt that she was definitely just talking casually.
Xiaoxin looked at the wooden platform around her and asked in an uncertain tone, "This is Hongqiao?"
"That's right!" Rong Ruo said with a grin, and at the same time turned to face Xinghe and Anton, "Of course we don't go to the dock, because what ship can be faster than Hongqiao?"
