Chapter 233: Hiding and Hiding Before Crossing the Lake
Just when Liu Qingyi was about to hold back and couldn't help but raise her head to enter the alert state, Shao Yang's sudden inquiry voice made her face appear surprised. However, she was stunned at first, and then stared at it, only to find that Shao Yang was still buried in the black beads in her palm.
Gradually coming back to her senses, Liu Qingyi's beautiful eyes drooped slightly, as if she was recalling the scene when she had a few simple fights and conversations with Yan San before, and couldn't help muttering: "Is his weakness or something to fear......?"
The moon is in the sky, the stars are twinkling, and the sky is quiet tonight, like a peaceful and peaceful environment. However, in Santa Fe Urban Forest Park, there is an undercurrent.
As the night deepened, the sky became darker and darker, and the light of the stars and moon gradually became brighter. Since the park is closed to visitors at night, there are almost no street lights on the entire island in the middle of the lake. Only occasionally in the depths of the grass will there be a small light curtain refracted by a reflector, but the mosquitoes and moths on it will almost only disturb the vision, even if you look at it.
Yan San, Luo Qi, and the three or five black-clothed subordinates who followed closely behind them were walking vigorously through the dense forest in the center of the island at this moment, looking at the corner of the lake not far ahead.
Not only did a vague figure emerge there, but even the subtle whispers could be heard more and more clearly, which couldn't help but make a cold smile appear on the corners of their mouths: "Have you finally found you?" โ
"Whoaโ"
Yan San's body was strange, and in a few flashes he had already appeared on the edge of the shallow lake. However, the two figures he had vaguely seen here a moment ago had disappeared at this moment, and only the slightly messy green grass under his feet with flattened marks proved that there were indeed people here.
His brows furrowed slightly, Yan San's eyes were gloomy, and he slowly squatted down and touched the flattened blade of grass, on which there was still a faint residue of warmth. Obviously, the picture he saw just now was definitely not an illusion!
"Poofโ"
"Huh? What's going on? โ
The sudden sound of falling water made Yan San, whose expression had slowed down, become solemn again between his eyebrows. He stood up almost reflexively, stepped lightly on the grass, and in a violent manner came to the place where the lake had fallen into the water.
However, it stopped a few feet from the lake, and only moved forward a little further when it was clear that it was shallow water.
Yan San's pupils obviously had a hint of doubt in his eyes, and he looked at the ripples on the surface of the lake with a somewhat depressed gaze, but his palms and fists were suddenly clenched.
This time, even he didn't know if he should believe that the sound of falling water just now was caused by the other two diving.
"Luo Qi!"
"Whew, whew, three...... Third master, what's wrong? Yan San's burst of cheers came, and Luo Qifang, who was still quite tired behind him, stepped forward quickly and asked respectfully.
"You take the remaining few subordinates of the Disha Mansion who don't have much physical exertion, and call Fei Shi, who is guarding the stone bridge, to turn back to the land from the bridge to investigate. I'm worried that Nalan Yunxiao's kid has fled this island. โ
Luo Qi's eyes couldn't help but flicker when he heard this: "Third Master, do you mean that they have already secretly crossed that kid across the lake while we are not paying attention?" However, that kid fought with us just now, didn't he have no physical strength for a long time? โ
"I'm just skeptical now. But for the sake of vigilance, do as I tell you at once! โ
"Okay." Seeing that he finally didn't have to follow Yan San to make him work hard, Luo Qi was naturally relieved.
Although he was still a little jealous of Liu Qingyi's strength, if he still had a few subordinates behind him, it made him feel a lot more confident. Moreover, their purpose this time was originally Nalan Yunxiao, who had obviously been injured a lot before, and it should be much easier to deal with it again.
As soon as he thought of this, after Luo Qi nodded in response, he immediately waved his hand and took all the subordinates behind him away. Yan San's kung fu was extremely clear to him, even if he was left alone on the island, there would be no problem.
Watching Luo Qi rush to the land on the other side with all his subordinates, Yan San's worry that had been hanging in his heart slowly put it down.
I don't know why, he always had a doubt: if Nalan Yunxiao is still hiding on this island, how can that pretty girl and four-eyed boy be relieved to leave him alone. Could it be that there is any place on this island where people can hide and escape the search of all of them?
"So, he must have been secretly sent off the island by the four-eyed boy and the pretty girl before I knew it...... Damn it! โ
However, just when Yan San was angrily scolding in his heart that he had been teased by the other side many times today, two figures suddenly rushed through the dense forest not far from him.
The tips of Yan San's ears trembled slightly for a moment, and then he turned his head suddenly, looking at the two familiar figures that gradually disappeared into the night, his teeth couldn't help but clench, and then his steps suddenly poked out, and his figure immediately chased after him like an arrow.
"Looks like he's been fooled. Let's hurry up, quietly follow Luo Qi and them, and by the way, see how they set up the stone bridge trap. โ
"Well, but do you still have the stamina?"
"I'm fine, let's go. In case he catches up with those two lights and shadows and sees through the illusion, it will be troublesome......"
"Don't worry, my sixth cousin's invention is not that dish. And you also take advantage of his weakness, which makes it harder for him to spot. Just don't be too reluctant, let's go. โ
Just after Yan San's figure also left this place for a few breaths, somewhere in the bamboo forest by the lakeside, a subtle whisper finally came out. The familiar timbre of a man and a woman was that after tinkering with the shadow beads, they hid Shao Yang and Liu Qingyi in the nearby forest.
The wind and leaves are fluttering, the sound and shadow are chaotic, and under the originally quiet and quiet night view of the lake, there is still a solemn and dull atmosphere at this moment.
The night sky in autumn is the deepest and most impermanent, and sometimes the blue sky with bright stars and moon may become dark as ink in the blink of an eye. At this moment, the stars in the sky are gradually beginning to be shrouded in flowing clouds and thick fog, which also makes the vision of the naked eye more and more limited.
In front of a bluestone clearing on the east side of the island in the middle of the lake, a marble bridge winds across the lake. The stone bridge is narrow, only about a meter wide, and the twisted design makes the bridge nearly 300 meters long on the lake path, which was originally only 100 meters wide.
Such a winding distance, coupled with its sinuous and staggered bridge deck structure, even if someone ran at a fast speed, it would take tens of seconds.
"What to do, we're already at the bridgehead? Do you need me to just rush out and knock them out? โ
Located in a dense bush on the shore of the lake here, Liu Qingyi's light and thin voice suddenly came. Her gaze seemed more and more different from her previous normal self. This made Shao Yang, who was beside her, feel more and more mysterious about the girl who whispered in her ear.
However, although Shao Yang was quite curious about Liu Qingyi's family background, he naturally understood the priorities at this moment. The most important thing at the moment is obviously to escape from this place and make sure that Yunxiao, who is on the other side of the lake, has left safely.
And for Liu Qingyi, he is also full of gratitude in his heart. Although the latter was not the first girl in his life to fall in love with, he was the first friend who was willing to risk his life and return alone to save him......
"Liu Qingyi, this true feeling of going through hardships together, I Shao Yang will definitely remember it in my heart."
Shao Yang's eyes peeked at Liu Qingyi, who was staring at the front with a solemn face, the corners of his lips rose slightly, and he said to himself in his heart, and then slowly frowned and shook his head.
"Before you are completely sure that you can ask them where the stone bridge trap is, let's wait and see for a while."
On the side of the marble bridge, the grass is overgrown and the algae is luxuriant, making it difficult to see the depth of the water nearby. However, judging from the fluctuations in the wind direction of the lake, there seems to be something hidden underwater. And it is precisely because of the presence of those things that disturbs the otherwise calm wind ripples on the surface of the lake.
"You see the shimmering waves above the pods, the circular ripples, and the slightly muddy bodies of water around them. Apparently, they must have buried something underwater near the piers. โ
Shao Yang's body leaned slightly to Liu Qingyi's side, feeling the softness from his arms and the elegant and quiet female body fragrance in his nose, his slightly tired nerves seemed to be stimulated, and with the natural secretion of male hormones in his body, his thinking was instantly clearer.
Liu Qingyi's beautiful eyes wandered, her eyes swept over the bridge that Shao Yang said, Qiong let out a light snort between her noses, and immediately asked in a low voice: "Hmm." But how do we know what they're hiding underwater? โ
"There's no hurry. Let's see how they're going to get through. โ
Because he was stimulated by the faint woman's body fragrance emanating from Liu Qingyi's body just now, Shao Yang's thinking, which was originally a little tired because of the shadow beads, quietly regained a little consciousness. He raised his hand and slightly pushed the frame on the bridge of his nose, his eyes firmly staring at Luo Qishu not far ahead, his expression was quite focused.
Liu Qingyi looked at the young man beside him with a bit of appreciation on his face, his red lips gently raised a touching arc, and the nervousness in his heart that was originally a little nervous because of being in danger began to gradually calm down.
In addition to Nalan Yunxiao and Mo Qingfeng, Liu Qingyi found that in this world, there are still other good men who are worthy of their friendship......
High in the sky, the dense fog is like a tired and curled up lazy cat, always entrenched between the clouds, blocking the light of the stars and the moon, making the environment of this area look dim and abnormal. Only by the lights of thousands of homes reflected in the bustling streets and buildings in the distance outside the park can I barely see the silhouette of a figure, but it is still difficult to distinguish who it is from the vague figure.
Shao Yang's thick eyebrows were always furrowed, and he stared at the bridge not far ahead. The black-clothed figures were squirming by the stone bridge, but due to the remoteness, Shao Yang couldn't hear what they were saying for a while.
Seeing this, Liu Qingyi on the side looked at Shao Yang's clearly anxious look, a touch of helplessness flashed over his pretty face, and he immediately pricked up his ears and tried to listen to the content of the conversation exchanged by the other party.
"Let's take the guard off the bridge first, the Star Envoy is chasing the Four-Eyed Boy and the pretty girl on the island. As for Nalan Yunxiao, the Star Envoy suspects that he has escaped, so let's go directly to the land on the other side of the island to find him. Let's go! โ
