Chapter 62: The Mountain Road
The 'rectification' lasted for more than ten minutes, and the group finally locked the door and left the hotel.
Out of the door of the hotel, go to "Qiu Island Garden", it is led by Cheng Hu. Cheng Hu strode in front, Dong Ting was still arguing with Xu Laifu about the previous "unpleasantness", and Lin Ziye and I walked last.
This kind of walking "formation" still echoes Xu Laifu's previous combat plan.
Originally, Lin Ziye and I appeared as "substitutes", walking at the end of the team, also out of strategic considerations, Cheng Hu was the only one who knew the marching route of "Qiu Daoyuan", and it was only appropriate for him to lead the way.
The remaining two happened to be entangled together because of the conflict, which was really better than a coincidence.
In this case, Lin Ziye and I can talk quietly.
"Master, how do you feel?" I whispered to Lin Ziye.
Lin Ziye frowned, and said to me in the same tone: "Don't call me master outside, it's not good to be heard......"
Just when I thought that Lin Ziye was afraid that the word "master" would expose her identity, Lin Ziye said something that made me cry and laugh.
"If they hear it, they think how old I will be!" Lin Ziye said to me seriously with a pout.
As I said, what I am most afraid of is her seriousness, which sometimes makes people laugh, but this time it was a little different, and her words made me feel like I was being spewed blood.
"Then I don't call you master, what is that called?" I asked with interest.
"Just call me 'Midnight' according to the kind you call in front of everyone!" Lin Ziye whispered with his face turned to the side.
"Midnight!" I tried to scream.
I didn't expect her to like me to call her "Midnight" than to call her "Master", which made me feel a little confused about Lin Ziye, isn't she very domineering?
"Hmm......" Lin Ziye lowered his head in response.
Well, since you asked me to call it, then I'm welcome, don't say it's me making my own decisions!
"Midnight, what do you think?" I asked the question again, meaning of course to know how her relationship with Dong Ting was, and whether there was something called "friendship" between them.
"Well, it's okay, Sister Tingting takes good care of me!" Lin Ziye is who she is, she can still hear my voiceover some times, besides, we haven't known each other for more than a day or two, but for a month or two.
Hearing Lin Ziye call Dong Ting "Sister Tingting", I naturally knew that their relationship was getting better, and they naturally got along very well.
"Oh? That's good, I saw that you didn't say a word in front of everyone, and I thought you didn't want to talk, but I'm afraid it's because you don't know Laifu and Cheng Hu very well...... In fact, they are much easier to get along with than Dong Ting, and you will get used to it slowly in the middle of the night!" I said with a smile.
Lin Ziye said angrily: "It's not!"
A flush appeared on her face, and she laughed.
"Tiger, how long will it take to arrive?" Xu Laifu shouted to Cheng Hu in front of him.
"It's only less than half the way, and it's almost fifteen minutes away!" Cheng Hu said without looking back.
"Ah...... It's only half...... It's so tiring...... It hurts!"
That's right, this complaint came from Dong Ting's mouth.
However, Dong Ting's complaint is completely her own fault, who told her to be reckless!
Except for Dong Ting, who walked on "crutches", everyone walked silently, only Xu Laifu teased Dong Ting from time to time, or Dong Ting would turn around and beat him up from time to time.
In fact, an interesting thing happened before.
There is a distance of about five kilometers from Beiguan Town to "Qiu Dao Garden", and if you use it, it will take at least half an hour to get there.
I had left the town five minutes earlier, and after less than a kilometer, the street lights were completely gone, and the road ahead was no longer a straight road, but a slightly rough slope.
At this time, Xu Laifu took out three flashlights from his shoulder bag, one was handed to Cheng Hu, who was at the front of the team, one was given to me, and one was kept for himself.
"Everyone be careful, this slope is not easy to walk, work in pairs, use a flashlight to move on!" Xu Laifu ordered.
This Xu Laifu is worthy of being a military advisor in our Ability Club, and he has long thought of the possibility of not having street lights, and he has already prepared a flashlight when he was in the hotel.
But it seems to be a little less, if only there were two more, one person does not need to rob.
I took the flashlight given by Xu Laifu and thought about partnering with Lin Ziye, but I didn't know that the one who didn't need a flashlight in this team was Lin Ziye.
Lin Ziye shook his head with a smile, indicating that he didn't need it.
Later I learned that Lin Ziye's vision was more useful at night than during the day, which reminded me of some kind of animal.
In the dark night, the dark clouds and the moon, two dark green gloom lights flashed on the steep mountain cliffs, vigorous and fast. The clouds dissipated, the bright moonlight poured down, and the figure with his head high, looking at the full moon, "whined......" sounded, resounding in the sky.
Is it the same as the night vision of a yokai like an animal?, I thought to myself.
But there was unhappiness ahead.
Presumably everyone can guess that it is Dong Ting and Xu Laifu.
Xu Laifu was ready to be in a group with Dong Ting out of strategic considerations, but Dong Ting was stubborn because of Xu Laifu's ridicule before, claiming not to be in a group with him.
So he came to Lin Ziye's side and said, "Sister Midnight, we are a group, ignore them!"
Lin Ziye grinned at Dong Ting.
I sighed and prepared to hand the flashlight to Dong Ting.
Dong Ting treated me with the same attitude as Xu Laifu, and did not appreciate it, and said: "The moonlight is very good, don't worry about us not being able to see the mountain road clearly!"
Moonlight?Where does the moonlight come from, oh, do you mean the waning moon?The faint light on the ground is probably not clear to anyone except the forest night?!
After that, Dong Ting completely regarded me as transparent, and talked and laughed with Lin Ziye by herself, but the good times didn't last long, Dong Ting accidentally stepped on a small pebble, and sprained her left foot, "Alas" screamed.
Xu Laifu and Cheng Hu stopped when they heard the voice, hurriedly turned their heads, and when they saw that it was Dong Ting, Xu Laifu laughed.
"You deserve it, you asked for it, who told you not to be in a group with me, look, you will be punished!" Xu Laifu said with a smile to Dong Ting, who was sitting on the ground rubbing her feet.
Hmph! Dong Ting glared at him with disdain......
Dong Ting walked with Lin Ziye, neither of them had the 'protection' of a flashlight, and Lin Ziye relied on his excellent genes and excellent eyesight to see the mountain road clearly and not fall. And Dong Ting is different, although she is also a supernatural, it doesn't matter what her eyes do, the harder she looks at the ground, the more she is 'tricked' by the stones in front of her to fall.
At the moment when Dong Ting fell, Lin Ziye saw it, but he was careless, he couldn't react in time, and his outstretched hand couldn't hold Dong Ting, Lin Ziye said in his heart, if it was faster, this would not have happened.
In fact, even if Lin Ziye activated his vines in an instant, it would be too late to entangle Dong Ting, and Lin Ziye had no need to blame himself for this matter.
"Sister Tingting, are you okay? It's all my fault for not being able to hold you up......" Even so, Lin Ziye apologized to Dong Ting.
"Midnight sister, help me up......" Dong Ting moaned 'ouch ouch'.
Lin Ziye nodded, stretched out his hand, and picked Dong Ting up.
"How can I blame Sister Midnight? If I want to blame the people who made me angry, they are all very bad, if I wasn't angry, I wouldn't have paid attention to this kind of little stone!" Dong Ting became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and kicked the small stone just now, but she was too careless, and actually used her sprained left foot.
"Ouch......" Dong Ting moaned again, but this time the moan was a little worse than the previous moan.
"Hmph, your feet are not a little restrained? Fortunately, this is not in the hotel, otherwise, the hotel staff will settle accounts with you!" Xu Laifu said to Dong Ting with a look of irrelevance.
"You ......" Dong Ting recalled that when she knocked on the door with her foot at that time, she was seen by the staff, but the scene of her hurried apology was for Xu Laifu and me to see.
It's just that I'm not good at exposing people's shortcomings in front of everyone, and Xu Laifu is different, borrowing this bridge, he can be divided into several chapters, a few subsections, N paragraphs, and keep telling everyone back and forth.
The strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, what he is talking about is Dong Ting and Xu Laifu, in this territory, Xu Laifu still has the final say.
Dong Ting, who was red-faced and red-eared by Xu Laifu, finally stopped talking.
At this time, Lin Ziye whispered to Dong Ting.
"Sister Tingting, sit down first, I'll take a look at your injuries!" Lin Ziye whispered.
"Hey, Sister Midnight, are you still going to see a doctor?" Dong Ting said, found a clean stone on the side of the road, and sat down.
"Oh......" Lin Ziye became alert, his eyes turned, and he said, "I learned the 'muscle and bone repair' technique with a neighbor's old uncle for a few days before, and I can get by!"
Lin Ziye said, pulling the edge of Dong Ting's left trousers, and without a flashlight, his excellent eyes played a role, and he immediately found the place where he was injured.
Dong Ting's ankle part was bruised, Lin Ziye touched it, the bones were slightly staggered, and with a little force, the bones made a slight 'Kara' sound, and they were connected.
The sound of "ah......" came from Dong Ting's mouth, but there was no more moaning, it seemed that Dong Ting was holding back the pain when she was grafted.
Dong Ting sweated a little and said, "Sister Midnight, are you okay?"
"Well, it's almost, as long as you don't move your left foot anymore, you'll be able to walk almost normally tomorrow!" Lin Ziye responded.
"Ahh......h What about that task?!" Dong Ting looked anxious.
"It's okay, I have a way!" Lin Ziye smiled.
As she spoke, Lin Ziye stretched out her hand, and there was an extra cane woven of vines in her hand.
Dong Ting was stunned and said, "This ......"
"Sister Tingting, this is my strange ability, I can grow vines from my body since I was a child......"
Naturally, this set of words that Lin Ziye said was taught to her by me in advance, and I said that if I used my own abilities in front of my own people, I would say so according to the words.
After that, Dong Ting walked on the mountain road with the cane made of vines......
