Chapter Seventy-Two: Looking for Someone
The deer's hooves trampled on the ground, and the dead branches and fallen leaves made a crisp sound.
Shen Xiaoxiao rode on the back of the deer and chased for a long time before she saw the figures of Mo Yan and the others from a distance, and their group had already bypassed the main tree and walked to the other side of the forest, where they were sitting around a clearing to rest.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, she didn't drag her feet on the side, Mo Yan's speed was too fast......
If she only walks by herself, it is estimated that she will not be able to catch up with Mo Yan and them for a while.
"Just send me here." Shen Xiaoxiao saw that Mo Yan and they were not far away, so she asked the little sapling to stop the deer.
"My lord, there is still some distance, so let's send you there." The little sapling said.
"It's okay, it's close, I'll just walk over by myself." Shen Xiaoxiao said softly.
They didn't know how many days they would have to delay in the forest, lest someone with a heart would see the deer and want to catch it as a reserve.
"Yes, my lord." The little sapling thought for a moment and replied.
Then, he commanded the deer to stop at the bushes in front of him and put Shen Xiaoxiao down, in fact, it didn't really want to get close to those humans.
If those people weren't Shen Xiaoxiao's companions, it would definitely not appear so close to those humans.
"Well, thank you guys." Shen Xiaoxiao rubbed the head of the little sapling and the deer.
After saying goodbye to the two little things that sent her, Shen Xiaoxiao took Gu Gu to meet Mo Yan, and just after walking two steps, she saw Mo Yan walking out of the bushes.
“?” Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Mo Yan suspiciously, not understanding why he came over.
"I'll pick you up." Mo Yan said.
He saw Shen Xiaoxiao's figure from a distance, flashing behind the bushes in the distance, but he didn't see her coming for a long time, and he was a little worried about whether she had encountered something, so he came over alone to check the situation.
"Well, you're just in time."
Shen Xiaoxiao told Mo Yan about the conversation she had just had with the Lord Tree, as well as Gu Gu's words about knowing the Lord of the Swamp, as well as her thoughts.
Speaking of the owner of the swamp, they may not be welcomed, and when there are many people on the periphery, Shen Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh, this is too difficult.
I don't know what grudges Mo Lin and the people from the trade unions on the periphery have, as for killing them like this?
"Mo Yan, don't worry, I also know which swamp master, maybe he will let us into the swamp for the sake of me and Xiaoxiao's face."
Gu Gu was lying on Shen Xiaoxiao's shoulder, and when he saw Mo Yan listening to what Shen Xiaoxiao said, his brows furrowed more and more tightly, so he comforted him.
"Well, let's go to the swamp first, if the owner doesn't welcome us, I'm thinking of another way to get out of here." Mo Yan thought for a while and said.
"Well, let's try!" Gu Gu echoed the road.
"Do you want to talk to Mo Lin and them?" Shen Xiaoxiao asked.
"No, they've already sent someone to reconnoiter the periphery." Mo Yan said.
Shen Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Let's go, meet up with Mo Lin and the others first, and see what news they can bring back from the people who went out to check." ”
Mo Yan: "Hmm. ”
Back in the team, Shen Xiaoxiao saw that there were a few more wounded in Molin's team, the injuries were mild and serious, and his teammates were cleaning and bandaging their wounds.
These injured people should be the ones who went to the periphery to check, and they were unlucky enough to meet the people who surrounded the periphery.
Shen Xiaoxiao just glanced at it, then found a random place and sat and rested, anyway, it was impossible for them to set off for a while.
Mo Yan asked Mo Lin in the past, and they went to the periphery to check the situation, although he had already learned the specific situation of the periphery from Shen Xiaoxiao.
Mo Lin sighed and told Mo Yan about the situation.
They had just sent six fast men to different directions to reconnoiter the situation on the periphery.
Unfortunately, I met the people who surrounded them on the periphery, and as soon as those people saw their people, they couldn't help but launch attacks, and they wanted to kill them.
Those people are no longer in order to ask for the fruit of the Lord of the Forest, but they are crazy to want their lives.
Now there are still two people who have not returned to the team, so Mo Lin is ready to lead the team with Li Yu, and the soldiers are divided into two ways to find the two teammates who have not yet returned, while Wang Ling stays in command.
After listening to Mo Yan, he was worried that Mo Lin might encounter danger when he went to find someone, and wanted to go with him, but Mo Lin refused in the name of danger, and the two brothers argued.
"You and Li Yu are in a team, go in this direction to find it, and Mo Lin and I will go in the other direction." Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke, interrupting the quarrel between the two brothers.
After speaking, she directly pulled Mo Yan and prepared to leave.
After she heard Mo Lin's words, she asked Gu Gu to call the surrounding plants to help find the location of the two who had not yet returned to the team, and the situation of the two of them was not very optimistic, and they were more seriously injured than the few here.
If it weren't for the fact that those people outside didn't dare to chase too deeply, those two would probably be gone.
"Xiaoxiao, it's too dangerous outside, you and Mo Yan should stay here and rest." Mo Lin said.
Actually, what he said was not right, when it came to danger, this place was hundreds of times more dangerous than the outside, after all, it was the territory of the lord of the forest.
But it's safer here than on the periphery, because the Lord of the Forest doesn't seem to want to attack them.
"Don't go too outside, keep an eye on the ground." Shen Xiaoxiao left this sentence, and then pulled Mo Yan and left.
Mo Lin still wanted to grab Shen Xiaoxiao's hand, but after a few words of persuasion, he was stopped by Wang Ling.
"You just do what she says." Wang Ling said.
"Why did you suddenly change sex? Listen to Xiaoxiao's words like this? Do you know ......?"
"Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with the two directions she was pointing?" Wang Ling interrupted Mo Lin's words.
"The two directions she is pointing to, aren't they millet and qiangzi, the ...... of reconnaissance" Wang Ling said halfway through his words, suddenly paused, looked at Wang Ling in shock, and said, "Xiaoxiao, do you know where they are?" ”
"I don't know, but my gut tells me she's not easy." Wang Ling said.
The group of them, from the first time they entered this forest and stepped into the territory of the Lord of the Forest, they were attacked by it every time.
Even if they were fighting against other teams, the Lord of the Forest would not just watch from the sidelines, but would attack several people at the same time each time.
This time, the first moment was no exception, but this time, the Lord of the Forest actually stopped his abnormal attack halfway, and after Mo Yan appeared, he helped Mo Lin solve the sneak attack.
He only thought it was a coincidence at the time, but after that, they were in the forest again, and after such a long delay, the lord of the forest not only did not attack them, but also intervened and protected them.
He believed that none of this was a coincidence, nor that the Lord of the Forest was in a good mood, but that it was at the behest of one of them, or rather that it was protecting one of them.
