Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Strange Mission
The forest was full of fog, even the morning sun could not penetrate the dense fog, the leaves and grass were covered with dewdrops, and the humid air filled the nasal cavity, and Lin Jiang seemed to feel that he was about to mold, and there were sometimes wild beasts howling in the dense fog, which was particularly gloomy and terrifying.
After the teleportation ended, everyone opened their eyes and appeared in the white woods.
"Why does it smell musty?" Lin Jiang pinched his nose and patted his clothes vigorously, saying that the natural air is fresh?
"Is there one? It doesn't seem to be, it's not your mental effect. Saying that, Liu Jun sniffed vigorously.
"What about the mission?"
ββββ
"Main quest 1 has been triggered, arrive at Linjiang Village within a week, and reward 500 points." After a while, the system prompt finally came.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Huh? Wait, that's gone? What about feeders? Waited so long and it's gone? The strong man had an unexpected expression on his face.
"What's going on?"
Everyone wondered, "Is it the type that will trigger the next mission by completing this task?" But why wait so long to give a hint? Zhang Feng frowned and said.
"I've never encountered this genre before......"
"I don't know how difficult it is, I always feel that it is not easy."
"Let's try to get out of this forest first."
"Without any hints, the fog is still so big, God knows which way we're going."
"Take out the compass and try it."
The boy took out the compass from the ring and looked at it, "Made, it's really not working again, every time you want to use it, it's useless, and you have to bring it, bad luck!" β
"Forget it, I'll come," Zhang Feng said, took out a black rag, and muttered to himself.
Lin Jiang turned his head to look at several veterans who were discussing fiercely under the tree, and the fog behind them seemed to be thicker...... It seems to have faded again, maybe it's an illusion......
It didn't take long for the senior to discuss the result, saying that it was the direction given by magic, and they didn't know if it was reliable, but Lin Jiang and the others had no other choice, so they followed them on the road.
Lin Jiang approached the team of veterans and asked, "What was that rag just now?" β
"Rags? Hehe, the hair is long and the knowledge is short, that is the prophecy scroll that Brother Zhang obtained in the last mission, hehe, do you know the prophecy scroll, it is the kind that can know astronomy and geography. The student said with a smug face, as if the scroll was his.
"Don't blow it up, it's just a fragment of the page, far from the level of knowing astronomy and geography, I can only vaguely give some clues, just now it was the scroll prompt to let me go in this direction." Zhang Feng looked at Lin Jiang, and for some reason the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became, although he seemed to look quite ordinary - quite beautiful.
"Well, why didn't you notice it before......" Zhang Feng was puzzled, but he quickly forgot about it again.
But after a while, Lin Jiang had already found out the names of these people, the young woman in the tights was called Bai Jie, the strong man with the scar was called Feng Hu, the student was called Yu Jiasheng, and the sloppy middle-aged man was called Li Bing.
"This forest...... It seems that not a single insect can be seen, and there is no bird calling. Li Furong said to himself.
"You ...... Do you feel weird? Li Bing said hesitantly.
"Is there one? Isn't it just a little damp? What a fuss. Yu Jiasheng said disdainfully.
"I ......" Lin Jiang just felt that there was no such musty smell as he could, but now he felt even more intense, as if he had mildew spots all over his body, and kept slapping his clothes, wishing he could take out the fire and roast it directly on his body. I'll go! Am I not highly resistant? Why don't you use it at all? It's not normal.
Zhang Feng glanced at Lin Jiang, who was out of shape, strangely, and said, "You can't ignore this small detail, I guess this world may be supernatural, and smelling this musty smell may also be a sign." β
"A sign of death?" Yu Jiasheng whistled, and the whistle pierced through the thick fog and echoed in the forest for a long time.
"Shut up!" Zhang Feng glared at him.
Zhang ...... Brother Zhang, I was wrongβ"
"Stop! There seems to be a sound up ahead! Bai Jie, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped.
A few people stopped and listened carefully, and in front of them they could faintly hear the undulating voices of people, the sound was intermittent and loud, and seemed to have a rhythm, and the direction of the sound was on the left side of the forward route.
The veterans looked at each other.
"Let's go, go over and take a look, listen to the sound is not far from us, maybe it has something to do with the quest, if you can also ask for directions." Zhang Feng said
"Do you want to leave someone to guard it?" Zhao Hu looked around and asked.
"No need, let's go together, if it's a supernatural world, I'm afraid it's more dangerous to stay."
"What do you think?" After speaking, Zhang Feng looked at Liu Jun, the only one who seemed to be able to fight.
"Okay, let's go together." Liu Jun nodded.
"Okay."
ββββββ
Everyone walked in the direction from which the voice came, and the voice gradually became clearer, "It's the voice of a child......" Zhang Feng's expression became solemn.
"Wow, it can't be a ghost," Yu Jiasheng couldn't help but shudder.
Not far away, the sound of a group of children chanting pierced through the fog and came from far and near.
"At the beginning of man, nature is good. Sex is similar, Xi is far away.
If you don't teach, sex is migration. The way of teaching is to be specialized.
Xi Mengmu, choose a neighbor. If you don't learn, you will be cut off.
Dou Yanshan, there is a righteous side. Teach five sons, and be famous.
If you don't teach, it's your father's fault. If the teaching is not strict, the teacher is lazy.
If you don't learn, it's not appropriate. If you don't learn from the young, what is the ...... of the old?"
"Three Character Sutra?"
"That's really ......"
"What is the Three Character Sutra?"
"What kind of world are yours?"
"Yes, ancient children's enlightenment books."
"Is it" Zhang Feng looked at the dense fog that hadn't dispersed for most of the day, "Let's go!" It doesn't matter if he's a human or a ghost, even if it's a ghost, I've killed it! With that, Zhang Feng walked straight towards the source of the sound.
Everyone pierced through the fog and came to a private school, where a wooden sign was hung in front of the door, on which the word Anhetang was written in ink, and a fence nearly one person high was used to block it.
"Knock knock!" Zhang Feng took a deep breath, stretched out his right hand and gently patted the wooden door, the surface of the wooden door was damp, with a faint musty smell, it was cold to the touch, and he could feel that the inside had become rotten between the pats.
"The three talents, the heavens, the earth and the people. Three Lights, Sun and Moonβ" The recitation stopped abruptly, and there was no sound around for a while, only the breathing sound of Zhang Feng and the others outside the door could be heard clearly, and the mist seemed to change into a chill rushing towards them.
"Goo-du" Li Furong watched from the side and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"Knock knock! Knock knock! Zhang Feng slammed the gate again, and the old wooden gate creaked and crumbled.
Seeing that there was no reaction, Zhang Feng wanted to increase his strength again, and then the door began to read aloud again.
"The three outlines, the monarch and the minister. Father and son, husband and wife.
Spring and summer, autumn and winter. At these four times, the luck is endless......"
This time, in addition to the sound of reading, I could hear the sound of hurried footsteps coming to the back of the door...... Stopped.
