Chapter XVII: A Sudden Crisis
The green grassland stretches as far as the eye can see, and at a glance, it looks as if the green carpet under your feet has spread out to the sky. You You and his party have been walking for a day, and they can't see the edge of the grassland at all. Although the grass is still cool, the scorching sun above the head is like a fire, and the sun is extremely hot.
You You didn't feel anything, her teammates were obviously tired, she looked up at the sun overhead, squinted by the dazzling sunlight, and was about to ask how far away, but a cool shadow suddenly covered her head, blocking all the heat waves.
She was stunned for a moment, and when she looked back, Xun Rong walked to her side at some point, still holding an oil-paper umbrella in her hand, and gently moved it to the top of her head, carefully blocking the sun.
Seeing her turn around, she also showed a smile like a dumping being, and said in a slow voice with concern, "In the scorching summer sun, Miss You is careful of heat stroke." As she spoke, she moved the umbrella in her direction again, as if trying to block out all the sun.
"Thank you!" You You habitually smiled back at him, glanced at his thin figure, and couldn't help asking, "Why did you come down? Don't you take the carriage? You're not in good health, it's okay to walk like this, right?"
Xun Rong, who smiled gently, seemed to think of something, froze for a moment, immediately adjusted again, and coughed lightly a few times, "Ahem...... Don't worry about it, Miss You, don't worry. After sitting in the carriage for a long time, coming down and moving around will help to relax my muscles and activate my nerves, which is more beneficial to my body. ”
"Really?" Although exercise was indeed good for the body, he coughed like that before, and she couldn't help but reconfirm, "You really can?"
"Yes!" Xun Rong nodded.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!" he nodded again.
"Why don't you sit back?"
"Nope. ”
"Okay......"
He took a step closer and smiled more gently, "Thank you girl for caring so much......
Before he finished speaking, You You suddenly turned around and shouted to the crowd with a happy face, "Brothers, who else is injured? There is an empty seat in the carriage now!"
Xun Rong: "......"
Only...... It's heart-wrenching!
( ̄△ ̄;)
Xun Rong's face was distorted for a moment, and he was just about to say something, but Lin Feng, who was walking in the forefront, suddenly stopped.
"Stop!" Lin Feng motioned for everyone to stop, frowned and looked at this grassland that seemed to never end, walked a few steps quickly and squatted down to check the shallow footsteps on the official road, and opened his eyes violently, "This is ......"
"What's wrong, boss?" Liu Qing couldn't help but ask.
"These footprints are the ones we left before. Lin Feng's face suddenly sank, and he said with a solemn face, "You can't go any further, we've been going in circles!"
"What?!" Not only Liu Qing, but everyone else was surprised, "How is it possible, haven't we been walking along the official road all the time?"
"The grassland outside the border city is not big, and it is impossible not to go out for a day, maybe this is not the so-called official road. Lin Feng's face sank even more.
As soon as his voice fell, everyone's faces changed, and they couldn't help but clench their weapons one after another.
"Huh, it seems to be foggy ahead!" a teammate suddenly pointed to the front.
"With such a big sun and no rain, how can it still fog?" Liu Qing said subconsciously.
Lin Feng thought of something, his face changed, and he reminded loudly, "There is a problem with this grassland, everyone should be vigilant." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud rumbling sound, and there was a shaking of the ground, and it became more and more violent, as if the whole grass was about to be opened.
"It's the ground moving!" everyone was startled, and subconsciously wanted to protect You You in the middle, "You girl!"
The ground shook even more violently, and even cracked in an instant with a few rumbling sounds, shaking out huge cracks. You You was okay, although she was startled, but she had always moved fast enough, and it was no problem to leave here, and she was just about to jump backwards, away from the range of the rift.
Behind him, there was a sudden sinking, something pressed down on the top of her head, and Xun Yang, who was still helping her with the umbrella, couldn't dodge the umbrella and pressed it down instantly, and was about to fall down with her, "Ahh......h
Before he finished speaking, You You's eyes were quick, and he reached out and grabbed it, not only stabilizing himself, but also catching people.
“......”
"Miss You!" Yin Fan, who was closest to him, was the first to find out about the situation of the two, and was startled, and rushed over to help regardless of it.
As soon as You You exerted his strength, he was about to lift the person out of the rift, when suddenly something cool poured out of the ground and rushed to his face at an extremely fast speed. The white mist in the eyes instantly spread, like an eye patch covering everyone's eyes, and the vision was suddenly blocked, followed by a wave of earth-shaking movements.
Trough!
You You, who was still stable, only felt that her feet sank, and accidentally the whole person fell, and in the boundless white mist, she could faintly see some dazzling light lit up, and she closed her eyes reflexively.
The next moment, her feet stepped on the ground, and what was even more amazing was that she didn't feel like she was falling from a height.
What's the situation?
When I opened my eyes again, not to mention the dazzling light, even the white mist that suddenly appeared was gone, and there was only darkness in front of me. Xu suddenly opened the bright place to the dark place, his eyes were a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't see anything.
She closed her eyes and slowed down, and it took a while to faintly see something clearly, but a familiar voice came from the side, "Miss You......"
"Xun Rong!" You You was overjoyed, subconsciously touched to the side, and sure enough, he grabbed a warm hand, "Are you okay?"
Her grip seemed to stiffen, and she paused for a moment before responding, "I...... It's okay!"
"What about the others?" she was a little anxious, looked around, and shouted, "Boss Lin, Liu Qing, are you there?"
However, there was no response, and there was silence all around, only her echo.
"I don't think they fell off, or fell somewhere else. Xun Rong spoke slowly, his voice full of guilt, "I'm sorry, I'm going to trouble the girl." ”
"It's none of your business. It was just an accident, she rubbed her eyes, trying to see what was going on around her, "Let's see if there are anyone else first." ”
Xun Rong also looked around, sighed, and said in a more guilty voice, "I see that this place is empty, I can see it all at a glance, it should be only you and I who have fallen into this ......."
"Miss You!" Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise, and a figure emerged from the mound behind him, and before the voice could reach the voice, he shouted first, "Miss You, where are you, don't scare me!"
"Boss Yin!" It was actually Yin Fan, You You was overjoyed, let go of Xun Rong, and immediately turned around and walked over.
Xun Rong's eyes sank, tightened the hand that was released, and bent his fingertips to pinch the cuffs.
Yin Fan should have been hit by the mud that also collapsed when he fell, and the whole person was buried in the mud, so he didn't see it before.
"Boss Yin, are you okay?"
"Miss You, how are you? Did you fall? Are you injured? Is it serious?" he let out a series of questions as if he had fired a cannon.
"I don't have anything, okay. ”
"Oh...... That's good, it's okay if you're okay!" He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm okay too, I'm covered in mud!" He patted the dirt on his head, supported the ground with both hands, and suddenly his face turned dark, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he said weakly in a deep voice, "That...... Wandering girl!"
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Can you pull me, I seem to pull ...... Can't pull it out!" This mud is too thick!
You You: "......"
Xun Rong: "......"
