Chapter 37: Incident
Di Tian hurriedly shook his head and said, "Secret treasure or something, I never thought about it. But if you've been in it a few times, you should know how dangerous it is. The reason why I had to go in was because I had to go. Dexterity, can you help me with this? Just take us in, you don't have to go in with us. ”
I saw Dongfang Lingdexterity silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, and then said slowly: "Emperor Tian, are you because you don't worry about your father? I saw him here this morning, and I said a few words to him. Frankly speaking, in fact, I also know that the reason why our Oriental Family has gathered so many people this time to explore the true intention of this secret realm. Although I don't want to go, this is a matter decided by the clan after all, and I can't change anything by myself. However, this time, almost all of the top ten elders of our Dongfang family came, and with them and so many cultivators, it shouldn't be much of a problem. Emperor Tian, you don't have to be in such a hurry, it's really dangerous in that secret realm, I'm afraid even if you go in, you won't be able to help much. ”
However, Di Tian's expression was very firm, and he just said: "It doesn't matter if I can help or not, but my father is in danger, and as a son of man, I can't sit idly by." Even if I knew that it was Longtan Tiger Xue, I had to break in. Otherwise, if something really happened to my father, do you think I will have peace of mind in my life?"
Hearing that Emperor Tiandu had already said this, Dongfang Dexterity knew that no matter how much he dissuaded, it would be difficult to change Emperor Tian's mind. Even if he didn't help him, he would definitely find other ways to get in. If that's the case, I'm afraid things will get worse.
After thinking about it, Dongfang Lingqiao finally sighed lightly and said, "Emperor Tian, I may not be able to help you with this favor of yours." I'll tell you the truth, I actually wanted to go in with those people this morning, but the elders didn't agree. And they were afraid that I would run around alone, and they sent a few people to watch me all the time, so it was inconvenient for me to go anywhere now, and I was annoyed to death. ”
"That's ......"
Di Tian's expression couldn't help but show a slight disappointment, Dongfang Dexterity had no reason to lie to him, if things were really as she said, I am afraid that his plan to directly enter that secret realm with the help of Dongfang Dexterity's identity could only be declared in vain. There was really no way, so he had to wait for the opportunity.
And Dongfang Lingdextrous saw Di Tian's disappointed look, only to see his beautiful eyes roll, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a long while, I heard her whisper: "Emperor Tian, although I can't take you in like this, we can sneak in." At the moment, most of the elders have already entered the inside, and there are few particularly powerful people left outside, except for the few annoying flies that always follow me. If we want to sneak in, there are still some chances. ”
Di Tian was shocked when he heard this, and said, "Is this feasible?"
Dongfang said with a clever smile: "Of course it is possible, I just need to find a way to send away those guys who have been watching me later, and then take you over later." After all, I am familiar with this place, and even if someone accidentally finds out, as long as those guards see that it is me, they will not dare to do anything to me. ”
Di Tian was overjoyed in his heart and said, "Okay, if you are willing to help me, this is the best, thank you." ”
Looking at Di Tian's sincere expression, Dongfang Lingdexterity just smiled, and then said: "Then let's do this first, I'll go and find a way to get rid of those guys who are watching me now, they are not far away now, if I stay here and don't go out, when they see that I am gone, I am afraid that they will come to me everywhere, and it will not be good to find you at that time." ”
With that, Dongfang Dexterity turned around and prepared to go out.
Seeing this, Di Chonghai on the side hurriedly stepped forward, as if he wanted to stop him.
Di Tian hurriedly raised his hand to stop him and shook his head.
It wasn't until Dongfang Dexterous gradually walked away that Di Chonghai asked, "Xiaotian, really let her go out like this......?"
Di Tian waved his hand and interrupted him: "Second uncle, although this girl is a little naughty, she is still trustworthy, she will definitely not betray us." ”
Di Chonghai obviously disagreed, and said: "That's not necessarily, how can you say that she is also from the Dongfang family, we are now secretly breaking into their house, so will she still help us?" Xiaotian, I think we still have to be careful." ”
Hearing this, Di Tian couldn't help but think about it, and felt that what the second uncle said was not unreasonable, although he trusted Dongfang dexterity, but at this juncture, it is always right to be more careful. Then I only heard him say: "In this case, let's change places first, find a place where we can not only see here, but also observe the surrounding situation at any time, and hide at any time for us to get out." ”
......
The two of them changed their hiding places, and they kept an eye on the movement on the side of the rockery in secret. I don't know how long it took to finally see Dongfang's dexterous figure come to the rockery where the two of them had been hiding before. After looking there for a long time, Dongfang Dexterity failed to find the two Emperor Tian, and couldn't help but look around a little anxiously. The two Emperor Tian didn't rush out, they just paid attention to the movements around them, and only quietly appeared after they found that there was nothing wrong.
Walking not far from Dongfang Dexterity, Di Tian whispered hello and motioned for Dongfang Dexterity to come over.
"Where are you two hiding, I haven't seen anyone after looking for a long time?" Dongfang Lingdex said with some complaints.
Di Tian smiled and said, "It's not far from here, by the way, has the situation been handled over there?"
Dongfang nodded dexterously and said, "I told those guys that I was going to take a bath and let them all go farther away, and then I got a puppet trick and sneaked out like this." But those guys are very good, I'm afraid my puppet skills won't be able to hide from them for long, we have to hurry over, or we'll be exposed later. ”
Di Tian nodded hurriedly, and was about to follow Dongfang Dexterous towards the direction of the secret realm. At this time, Dongfang Lingdexterity was leading the way in front, while looking at Di Chonghai who was following behind Di Tian, and couldn't help asking: "I forgot to ask just now, Di Tian, who is this uncle following behind you?"
Uncle?
Being called such a clever by Dongfang Ling, Di Chonghai couldn't help but be dumbfounded, although nominally he was indeed Di Tian's second uncle, but in fact he was not a few years older than Di Tian, and he was not yet thirty. In the past, when he and Di Tian went out, others would always mistake them for brothers. But at this time, the word uncle suddenly came out of the mouth of Dongfang Lingqiao, which made Di Chonghai suddenly feel as if he was very old.
Di Chonghai protested in a low voice: "I said that the little girl of the Dongfang family, I am not an uncle, I am a ......"
Before he finished speaking, he heard Di Tian on the side interrupt: "Second uncle, this guy is my second uncle." ”
Dongfang Dexterity couldn't help but suddenly: "I said, last time Emperor Tian was followed by a big brother, how could he suddenly change to an old man this time." It's your second uncle? Is he your own uncle? Why doesn't it look like it?"
"Old, old man?" Dongfang's dexterous words once again struck Di Chonghai's lifeline, making his body tremble suddenly.
"Little girl, am I that old? Which eye do you see that I am old? Still an old man? Don't look at me as Xiaotian's second uncle in name, but I am still a young man, right? Di Chonghai whispered beside him.
"Cut. It's really not shy to call other people's little girls again and again, and they don't admit that they are old men. Dongfang Dexterity was also not to be outdone.
Di Tian only felt a headache when he heard this, although his second uncle, although he seems to be a few years older than him now, but in fact, sometimes he is always a little childish, like a child who has not grown up. After all, Di Tian is a human being in two lives, so his heart is far calmer than his actual age now. Therefore, when the two are usually together, they don't show much as uncle and nephew, but like two brothers of the same age. It's just that the role that often plays the elder brother is Di Tian.
And at this time, Di Chonghai, who was already a little out of tune, met a girl with such a lively personality as Dongfang Dexterity, which was tantamount to a needle tip to a thorn, it was really a casual word, and it could spark.
"Okay, second uncle, dexterity, don't quarrel between the two of you. Don't be discovered. ”
Di Tian persuaded helplessly, and when he looked up and saw that there seemed to be a few sparks in the eyes of the two of them, he couldn't help but smile dumbly. It seems that he really has two troubles around him, and I just hope that there won't be any trouble.
Taking advantage of the night, the three of Di Tian marched quickly in the darkness. With the oriental dexterity in front, the group was familiar with the road, successfully avoided the sight of the guards one by one, and finally came to a small forest.
At this time, Dongfang Lingqiao suddenly stopped and said to the two behind him: "In the small forest in front of you is the entrance to the secret realm. However, there are a few masters of our clan guarding there, and if we want to sneak in, I'm afraid it won't be so easy. I'll figure out a way to lure them away later, and then you two will quickly go to a small bamboo grove to the north and wait for me. ”
Saying that, Dongfang was about to act, but when he saw Di Tianyi raise his hand, he stopped her and said, "Slow, it seems that something is wrong." ”
"What's wrong?" the two beside him looked at him strangely.
"Don't you feel it? There seems to be a strange smell in the air. Di Tian said.
Hearing this, Di Chonghai couldn't help but sniff it with his nose, only to feel confused: "No, where did it come from?"
Dongfang Dexterous suddenly pinched his playful little nose, looked at Di Chonghai beside him with disdain, and said with some suspicion: "Old man, did you fart?"
Di Chonghai couldn't help but be angry when he heard this, and almost jumped to his feet and scolded: "You little girl, you just farted." Less there. ”
Dongfang Dexterous smiled harmlessly, shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you don't put it, you don't let it go, why are you so excited." said that you are an old man, and you are also the second uncle of Ditian, but in this case, you feel worse than Ditian. Alas, I really don't know who is the uncle and who is the nephew. ”
Di Tian saw that Dongfang Dexterous was deliberately teasing Di Chonghai to play, when this girl first got to know herself, she didn't want to make fun of herself, but she didn't let her get her wish at that time. Now that I finally bumped into such a wronged uncle as the second uncle, the same childishness, and the same love of-for-tat, wouldn't that suit her taste?
Di Tian felt angry and funny, these two guys are simply a pair of living treasures, and they can always make the originally serious atmosphere feel like a family.
"Okay, second uncle, dexterity, don't be poor for the two of you. The situation around here really doesn't seem right, it seems to smell of blood, so we have to be extra careful. By the way, dexterity, you said that there are people from your Dongfang family in this forest, what is their strength? If we sneak in like this, will we definitely be discovered?" Di Tian said with a straight face.
I saw Dongfang Dexterous shook his head and said, "I'm not sure about this, the people who are guarding here are all arranged by the elders, and the strength will not be much worse if you think about it." But what do you mean by the smell of blood? Why didn't I feel anything?"
Di Tian just frowned and didn't explain too much. The reason why he said this was entirely out of his own feeling, a feeling that was difficult to put into words, not that he really smelled something. Rather, it's a kind of perceptive sense of danger, like those beasts. What Di Tian just felt was the smell of blood left after a battle that had occurred in the vicinity. Therefore, at this time, he had to be vigilant.
At this time, Di Chonghai suddenly said: "Let's go over and see the situation first, let's try our best to hide our breath and be careful." ”
Hearing this, Emperor Tian and Dongfang Dexterity both nodded.
Without saying much at the moment, the three of them hid the aura on their bodies and slowly walked towards the forest.
This forest is not very large, it was originally carved out for people to enjoy, but because no one took care of it for some time, some of the weeds in this forest have grown. The three of Di Tian held their breath and moved forward step by step. After a while, they saw a small bamboo forest in the distance, and it was impressively in front of them.
"After passing the bamboo forest, we will reach the entrance of the secret realm. Dongfang Dexterous said suddenly.
Di Tian frowned and asked in a low voice, "Lingqiao, didn't you say that there are your people sent in this forest? Why haven't you even seen a single figure until now?"
Dongfang Lingqiao also looked puzzled, shook his head and said: "I don't know, they should be at the edge of the forest on weekdays, and there is a guard in front of this bamboo forest." Now that I don't even see a ghost, could it be that I deserted?"
Hearing this, Di Chonghai on the side couldn't help but smile and said, "You dignified guards of the Dongfang family, will you still desert at such a time? I said that you little girl is really good at thinking." ”
Dongfang Dexterity couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and glared at Di Chonghai and said, "Then you old man should tell me, why didn't we see those guards all the way?"
Di Chonghai smiled and said, "Didn't Xiao Tian say just now that he felt a smell of blood? Perhaps, those guards arranged here by your Dongfang family may not be able to come to see your eldest lady now." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Dongfang Dexterous said angrily.
"What do you mean? Didn't I understand enough?" Di Chonghai still looked bored and bored, and said, "I said that they may have been infiltrated by someone, and it is not necessary that they have been killed." ”
I saw Dongfang Dexterity resolutely shook his head and said, "That's impossible." ”
"Why is it impossible?" Di Chonghai asked with a smile.
"The people who are assigned to guard here are all elite masters selected by several elders of the clan, and the strength of each one does not know how much higher than that of an old man like you. Do you think it's possible that they'll be killed so easily, and that they're still silent, and they don't show up at all?" said Dongfang Ling.
"Alright. Di Tian suddenly spoke up and interrupted the conversation between the two.
Then he said, "Whatever happens, let's go and see." However, the situation is unclear now, so everyone should be a little more careful. ”
With that, the three of them continued to walk forward.
When I entered the small bamboo forest, I still didn't see any guards, and there was a dead silence in this forest, giving people an extremely strange atmosphere. The three of them walked all the way to a small bamboo hut, but they still didn't feel anyone's voice, and they couldn't help but be puzzled.
Could it be true that the old man was right? What really happened to them?
Dongfang dexterous face turned slightly pale, and his heart became a little uneasy.
At this time, I saw that Di Chonghai had been staring at the small bamboo house, and after a long while, he turned his head to look at Di Tian on the side and said, "Xiao Tian, you are right, there is indeed a smell of blood here." ”
Di Tian nodded, he felt the smell of blood getting heavier and heavier all the way over, and the source seemed to come from the small bamboo house in front of him. Come to think of it, it should be those people from the Dongfang family who are guarding here have encountered some terrible enemy that has infiltrated them, and most of them have been killed now.
"What are you talking about?" Dongfang Lingdexterity frowned, looked at Di Tian, and then at Di Chonghai, with a puzzled expression.
What did it smell like? Why didn't she feel it at all?
At this time, I only heard Di Chonghai say: "Little girl, you know at a glance that you have never experienced that cruel life and death scene since you were a child. So you don't feel it, and it's not surprising. I'm not afraid that you girl will be unhappy, I'm afraid that all the guards you arranged here have been killed by someone now. If you don't believe me, you can go inside the little bamboo hut and have a look......"
