Chapter 62: Encounter

"Not far ahead, there should be an area where criminals are active. Xiao Lin squatted behind a bush, showing half of his head and looking at the scene ahead, it was night, and his vision was a little blocked.

Linglong turned her back to him behind Xiao Lin, always paying attention to the movements from the blind corner of Xiao Lin's vision.

There are only two of them who want to take care of danger from all sides at the same time, which will be more difficult and draining than the other squads.

After Xiao Lin and the others left the stone gang, they were lucky not to encounter any more crises, neither the green fire wolves, nor some criminals who walked out of the specified area, so there has been no movement in the points of their team.

"Anyway, how should we find criminals, this area looks not small, where can I find points?" Xiao Lin looked at the map on the compass of the general theory and asked Linglong in a low voice.

"It's all a matter of luck. Linglong said without looking back.

"This ......" Xiao Lin was stunned and didn't know what to say, luck is an ethereal thing, it is really unpredictable, and good luck is very good, often bad luck is the majority.

Xiao Lin thought that it was very possible, they couldn't find a criminal for a long time, but they met a group of criminals as soon as they touched them.

"Then let's walk slowly, and go into the area first. Xiao Lin whispered.

Linglong nodded, and then reacted that Xiao Lin couldn't see her nodding, and opened her mouth to answer.

Xiao Lin and the others continued to hurry, rubbing the dense bushes forward, and the sound of rustling was heard along the way.

"Wait a minute. Xiao Lin suddenly said a warning, staring at the ground not far in front of him without blinking.

"What's wrong?" asked Linglong softly.

"I'll take a look first. Xiao Lin squatted down carefully and slowly, stretched out his hand and gently brushed away the dense branches and leaves of the bushes in front of him, only to see a pitch-black silk thread across the bushes in front of him, hidden in the shadows of the earth, with a bell tied to the left and right sides.

"There is someone not far ahead, most likely a student from the Black Court. Xiao Lin explained the situation to Linglong softly, "Someone has laid a cordon here. ”

Linglong turned around slightly and leaned over to Xiao Lin's side, looking at the silk thread and the darkly colored bell: "Do you want to go up and have a look?" ”

Xiao Lin nodded: "You can find out, but it doesn't have to be a student, and the possibility of a criminal is also very high." ”

Immediately afterward, the two of them carefully crossed the pitch-black cordon and continued to walk forward.

A crisp sound of "jingle bell" came out, and Xiao Lin's face changed: "What's the matter?"

He looked down and found that there were three cordons hidden in the bushes, and ordinary people often avoided the first one, and the second one would relax their vigilance, and if someone could really avoid the second one, it would be difficult to avoid the third one.

"It was put on the table. Linglong's face was solemn, she didn't expect that someone would set up three cordons here, and there was no doubt that they were careless after crossing the first one.

"Who!" a low shout came from not far away.

"Is it a criminal?" another voice sounded, sounding like a girl.

Xiao Lin and Linglong looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, fortunately, they met a student from the Black Court, if it was a criminal, it was really enough for them.

This is also one of the disadvantages of their small team, they can't face too many criminals at the same time, they can only pick and choose a single shot, if they can't think of fighting a large group of criminals, they will definitely die a miserable death.

"Be careful. The male student who was the first to speak said, and soon two figures jumped out from the shadows in the distance, each with a sword with a cold light in their hands, staring at Xiao Lin and the others sternly.

"Identity?" the man began.

"You don't know us?" Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and looked at the two students in front of him a little strangely, everyone has been practicing together for such a long time, even if they can't name each other, they should already be familiar with each other, it shouldn't be this kind of reaction.

Linglong's eyes swept over the faces of the two students, and there was an inexplicable light beating in his eyes, and he slowly narrowed his eyes.

"When you get here, even if you know each other, you have to check your identity. The male student explained, "We don't know if you are a criminal in disguise and want to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak up on us, after all, no one knows the methods of criminals. ”

Xiao Lin nodded, if the analysis is indeed reasonable, and it is not only the criminal, but what is even more terrifying is the ability of the ghost to change, it is simply impossible to distinguish the true from the false.

Xiao Lin and Linglong glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of vigilance in each other's eyes, the current situation was a little weird, which made their hearts a little heavy.

"What do you call it?" Linglong took the initiative to speak to the others for the first time, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart, as if she was testing the reality of the other party.

"Please report to your home first. The male trainee's expression was a little cold, with a cold look on his face.

A dark flame flashed in Xiao Lin's eyes and quickly disappeared, and he said softly: "Xiao Lin." ”

"Linglong. Linglong squinted her eyes slightly, carefully looking at the man and woman in front of her.

Xiao Lin was also a little strange in his heart, as far as he knew, among all the students, only he and Linglong were in a two-person team, and the rest were almost all in a team of five, excluding the students who were seriously injured and could not participate in the trial, the number of people was just right.

Why are there only two people in front of him, where did the other three go? Xiao Lin didn't dare to relax at all, and his body tensed all the time.

"My name is Zhang Lin. The male student spoke lightly, not taking Xiao Lin and the others in his eyes at all.

The female students left without saying a word, leaving behind an arrogant back.

Xiao Lin felt a fire in his heart, this was simply too much for him, what was the matter with this high-minded appearance? Everyone was a student, and there was no respect at all for putting up a shelf in front of him for no reason.

At the same time, he also had some doubts in his heart, he had seen these two people during the joint practice, although he had not spoken, but he didn't look like such a stinky tempered person, why did he suddenly change his abnormality at the beginning of the trial? He was about to open his mouth, but he was stopped by Linglong on the side.

Xiao Lin turned his head and looked at Linglong inquiringly, Linglong didn't say anything but shook his head imperceptibly, as if telling Xiao Lin not to stir up trouble at this time, and wait a while to see.

Although they set off early, they were delayed for some time in the rocky hill after all, and they fell behind in the process.

At this time, I met two students, although they had a very bad temper and bad character, but as soon as they arrived in the area where the criminals were active, they must have some useful information in their hands, and it was not appropriate to turn their faces at this time.

Zhang Lin and the others didn't mean to greet Xiao Lin and Linglong at all, the two sat by the bonfire and ate compressed biscuits together, without saying a word the whole time, and the atmosphere was eerily quiet.

Xiao Lin and Linglong sat not far away, also holding dry food in their hands, and their eyes swept over Zhang Lin and the others not far away from time to time.

"These two people always make me feel a little weird. Xiao Lin said softly.

Linglong nodded sympathetically: "The behavior is a little strange, and where did the other three team members go?"

"Could it be that there really is a two-person squad besides us? Xiao Lin said with some uncertainty, and shook his head after speaking.

Linglong groaned and said, "It's unlikely, we should be the only ones on the previous list as a two-person team." ”

"So there is still a list?" Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand, "Don't don't, I was wrong." ”

He found that Linglong's face was ugly again, and he quickly apologized.

Linglong glared at him: "Anyway, be careful." ”

At this time, Zhang Lin and the woman walked over, and Xiao Lin and the others hurriedly stood up and looked at the two who were walking slowly.

"Something?" Xiao Lin asked lightly, although his face looked very casual, his body was already ready for the other party's sudden move.

"We have a request for help from both of you. Zhang Lin still had a non-salty expression.

Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, put on a face for him, and now asked him for help? What's the matter with this person? Where did this kind of attitude of calling and drinking to make people frightened cultivate, and the anger in his heart began to rush up again.

Linglong pulled Xiao Lin's cuffs to calm him down: "What's the matter?"

Zhang Lin showed a trace of unnatural expression on his face: "That's it, the other three members of our team were trapped by criminals, and it took a lot of effort for the two of us to escape. ”

"However, our team members are still there, and the two of us are too weak to rescue them, and I hope to get your help. The woman beside Zhang Lin spoke softly, in a very soft but lofty tone.

Xiao Lin took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "This is your attitude of asking for help?"

Zhang Lin and the female student's faces changed, Zhang Lin's expression was a little embarrassed, but the female student's eyes showed a trace of disgust, although they quickly reined in, they were still noticed by Xiao Lin.

"Where is the location, how many criminals are there?" Linglong grabbed Xiao Lin and stopped him with her eyes, don't talk nonsense anymore.

Zhang Lin hurriedly spoke, as if he also realized that his previous attitude was a little bad: "It's about half a day's journey, and there should be three or four people in terms of numbers, because the scene was a little chaotic at that time, and it was impossible to make an accurate judgment." ”

Linglong nodded: "Then let's go now." ”

"It's late at night, it's not convenient to travel at night, so wait for dawn. Zhang Lin said.

Xiao Lin's eyes flashed with a gleam, this Zhang Lin was so calm, he didn't even care about the safety of his teammates, you must know that time is life at this time, who knows what those criminals will do, and the possibility of death will be greatly increased if you slow down, not to mention that it will take nearly half a day to rush over.

But Xiao Lin didn't say anything in the end, just nodded and waved Zhang Lin to let them leave, but his eyes kept watching them slowly walk away.

Linglong also stared at the two departing figures, her eyes flickering, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Zhang Lin and the female student returned to the campfire, and turned around and looked at Xiao Lin and Linglong, but the smile was all cold and emotionless, which made people stand upside down.
