Chapter XVII: Continuing the Mission
"Why do you have so many questions?" Wang Wei looked at Mu Jin and complained.
"I picked it by the way, I don't know where I was caught, the vines sent me back." After Shen Xiaoxiao answered Mu Jin's question, she said, "Let's go back to the cave first, and then go to the task when it is dawn." ”
"Get out of here first, and we'll talk about the mission later." After Mo Yan put away the dagger, he reached out and took the lotus pod in Shen Xiaoxiao's hand, and pulled her out.
"Why?" Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Mo Yan puzzled.
"This place is not safe, the fog season is inexplicably many months early, maybe there will be other dangers in a while." It was Mu Jin who answered Shen Xiaoxiao.
"Is there any danger here other than a batch of mutated mushrooms?" Shen Xiaoxiao asked puzzled.
The big willow tree only said that the mushrooms here had undergone a mutation, and when frightened, they would spew out white mist spores, but he did not say that there was any other danger.
"Well, something happened here, let's send you back to ...... first" Wang Wei was talking to Shen Xiaoxiao with his head down, he didn't notice the person in front of him at all, stopped his steps, and bumped into it directly.
Mo Yan: "Mutant mushrooms? ”
Ning Di: "How do you know?" ”
Mo Yan and Ning Diyi asked at the same time.
"Well, there are a batch of mushrooms here, and if you are frightened, you will touch the white mist gas, which is poisonous, just bypass it." Shen Xiaoxiao answered Mo Yan's question first, and then looked at Ning Di and said, "As for how I know, I'll tell you later." ”
Ning Di nodded.
He saw that Shen Xiaoxiao didn't want to say anything, and he didn't continue to ask, after all, they hadn't known each other for long, and Shen Xiaoxiao had reservations about them, which was normal.
"Mysterious." Mu Jin nodded Shen Xiaoxiao's head.
"Well, girls must have a little secret." Shen Xiaoxiao and Mu Jin quipped.
Actually, she didn't want to be mysterious, after getting along for the past few days, Shen Xiaoxiao also got to know them a little, they were all very good to her, and she was slowly integrating into them.
It's just that her abilities are a little special, and she's not sure if she can tell them.
"Shall we stay and continue the mission, or will we leave first as planned?" Wang Wei asked.
He had just heard Shen Xiaoxiao say that the Misty Forest had an extra batch of mutated mushrooms, which would spew out spores similar to white mist, and the Eight Achievements of the Misty during the day were made by those mushrooms.
Mo Yan looked at Shen Xiaoxiao, was silent for a while, and said, "Xiaoxiao, can you take us around the mutant mushrooms?" ”
Shen Xiaoxiao: "Yes." ”
Mo Yan: "Continue the mission, let's go back to the cave first, wait for dawn, and let Xiaoxiao lead the way." ”
Ning Di and Wang Wei nodded: "Yes." ”
Mu Jin: "Then let's go back to the cave, Xiaoxiao, go this way." ”
After speaking, Mu Jin didn't stop, and pulled Shen Xiaoxiao to the cave, for fear that she was being captured by plants, and Mo Yan, Wang Wei, and Ning Di also followed closely.
The group returned to the cave, piled up the wood picked up on the road at the entrance of the cave, and saw Shen Xiaoxiao's head full of black lines, it rained for a day, and the firewood was wet, can you light it?
Mo Yan squatted on the ground and tinkered for a while, and a pile of flames rose from the entrance of the cave.
"Can wet firewood be lit?" Shen Xiaoxiao said.
"Little meaning, Lao Mo has dried it, can't you order it?" Mu Jin replied in front of Mo Yan.
"Can you still dry it?" Shen Xiaoxiao was shocked.
Mo Yan actually has a drying function? On the rainy day after that, can you ask Mo Yan to help dry your clothes?
"Hmm." Mu Jin nodded, and said randomly: "It's a pity that Lao Mo is not very good at controlling it now, and it is easy to burn things directly to ashes." ”
As soon as the words fell, Shen Xiaoxiao saw that Mo Yan had lost his hand and burned a piece of wood, and the wood was ashes......
Forget it, there are only four of her clothes in total, and her financial situation is not very good, if Mo Yan misses and burns one or two, she can't afford that loss.
After all, everything in the last days is extremely expensive, and she has so much money in total, she really can't stand her at all......
After eating and drinking, Mu Jin proposed that the five of them take turns to keep vigil, so as not to have any emergencies and kill them by surprise, while Shen Xiaoxiao told them to be brave and guard the first shift.
During the day, she had rested at the big willow tree, and now she was still full of energy, Mo Yan and the four of them. Because she was worried all day, she didn't have a good rest.
After waiting for the four of them to go, Shen Xiaoxiao sat by the fire alone in a daze, and added some firewood to the fire from time to time, so as not to extinguish the fire.
One one
"Wake up." Mo Yan patted Mu Jin, who was still lying asleep on the ground.
"Huh?" Mu Jin opened his eyes in a daze.
"Eat." Mo Yan handed a piece of jerky to Mu Jin.
"Hmm." Mu Jin took the jerky, put it in his mouth, and fell asleep in a daze.
Mo Yan saw that he had fallen asleep again, and he didn't bother to continue calling him, anyway, they were still a while away from leaving.
"Xiaoxiao." Mo Yan turned his head to look at Shen Xiaoxiao.
"Hmm." Shen Xiaoxiao looked up at Mo Yan when she heard the sound.
"We'll do Mu Jin's mission first, his mission is closest to us......" Mo Yan said as he simply drew a map of the monster forest and told her about the tasks of several people.
Shen Xiaoxiao stopped the movement in her hand, and stuffed the unpeeled lotus seeds in her hand into her bag one by one, which she asked the big willow tree for yesterday, and they were all unmutated lotus flowers.
She plans to go back and plant it in the yard, anyway, their yard is empty, not only does it look good, but it can also add a dish to herself.
After putting the things away, Shen Xiaoxiao sat next to Mo Yan, Wang Wei and Ning Di also came around, and the three of them listened attentively, interjecting from time to time.
When the four of them had almost discussed, Mo Yan went to ask Mu Jin to get up again, and when he saw that he had opened his eyes, he said, "Let's go." ”
"Huh?" Mu Jin is still confused.
"You're too gentle, let me come, make sure to wake him up immediately." Saying that, Wang Wei walked to Mu Jin's side, grabbed his shoulder and shook it desperately, and shouted in his mouth: "Lao Mu, set off to do the task, wake up quickly, if you don't wake up, we will leave you here, leave you alone!" ”
"Don't shake it...... Don't shake, wake up, wake up. Mu Jin said weakly, and the dried meat in his mouth fell down.
Mo Yan quickly caught the jerky, and then stepped aside.
"Hurry!" When Wang Wei saw that he was awake, he let go of his hand.
As soon as Wang Wei let go, Mu Jin lay back on his backpack, took a few deep breaths before opening his eyes, sitting up, waiting for a few seconds, picking up his backpack, and saying, "Let's go." ”
After he got up, Mo Yan handed him the jerky again and briefly told him the task.
Mu Jin didn't dislike it, he took the jerky and started eating, after eating, someone handed him other food and water, he was not polite at all, like an uncle.
