Once you figure out what happened, the rest of the journey is much easier. Although I knew that I would face a fierce battle soon, it was at least much more comfortable than always being afraid of those who were traveling with me. At this point, there were less than two months left to go from the south coast of the Radiant Realm. One day, Chu Fanghua suddenly made a strange request to Xiao Tianhe and Ye Linglong.

"Ah, you say it again?" Xiao Tianhe was taken aback after hearing this.

"I want you to lock me in a box. Chu Fanghua repeated. Undoubtedly, she wanted to use this trick to hide from the sky and cross the sea, and landed on Yuanming Island without knowing it.

"Is this necessary?" Ye Linglong asked, "If you suppress your strength, you won't be exposed, right?" ”

"This kind of thing of 'suppressing power' will not work in front of a real master. As long as you are careful, you can detect flaws. Chu Fanghua explained.

Ye Linglong nodded first, and then persuaded: "It's still far away to the beach, you don't have to go into the box at this time, right? She always felt that it was too "cruel" to put a living person in a box and hold it for dozens of days.

"Nope. Chu Fanghua said, "In order to go to business and avoid the crackdown, the pirates are very well-informed, especially the guys like this group of people who have occupied the island for a long time and have not moved the land, and the coast must be full of ears and eyes." Our fleet is quite eye-catching, and if you want to do it early, you should do it early. Immediately, she smiled again, "Don't worry about me. I can meditate and retreat in the box, what is the point of a few dozen days?"

"That'...... All right. Ye Linglong had to agree.

Chu Fanghua clicked a few times on a large box, removed the magic circle, and opened the lid of the box, which turned out to be empty. Before entering the box, she told again: "After a while, I will bother Miss Ye to complete the magic circle on the box, so that they will not know that I am hiding in the box." ”

"However, the magic circle I set up can't be exactly the same as yours!"

"It doesn't have to be the same, just the similar. Anyway, I'm the one who sets it up, and no one else can see it except that I know the difference. Chu Fanghua propped up the edge of the box and turned in, "By the way, you have to remember which box I am in, otherwise they will have to open the box to see the goods, and it will be bad if they open the box I am in!"

According to her instructions, the two picked up some stones and put them in the box, and after closing the lid, Ye Linglong completed the magic circle. The two of them sat in the lead car and the other in the tail car, escorting the convoy all the way south.

It was a hot summer, and the sun was scorching every day. Due to the large number of water systems in the southern region, the humidity is high, and it is even more stuffy, and the two of them are smothered and sweaty every day. If you can settle in the town, then it is okay to say, if you sleep in the wilderness, you have to endure it. Ye Linglong once proposed to simply reverse the day and night, find a place to rest during the day, and hurry at night while it is cold. But Xiao Tianhe did not agree out of concern about his unfamiliarity. Either way, it's safer to stay in one place at night than to go in the dark.

That night, the convoy once again marched to a wilderness where there was no village in front of the village and no shop in the back, passing by a small forest, and Xiao Tianhe stopped. This is halfway up a slope, and the edge of the trees below is a good place to rest.

"It's really unbearable this day, you see, I'm tanned!" Ye Linglong complained to Xiao Tianhe. The sweat-soaked clothes are attached to the body, and if the sweat is dried with Meng Li, the residual salt will burn the skin, and it will be uncomfortable anyway.

"Bear with me, don't you want to think about Sister Chu? Isn't it more uncomfortable to be stuffy in an airtight environment? When the sun is exposed, I think the inside of the box must be as hot as a steamer, have you ever heard her complain?" Xiao Tianhe said with a smile.

"Think about it, too. Ye Linglong felt that when it was dark, there was even a stream of heat coming out of the ground, "Hey, how many days have this been in, and she hasn't said a word, should she ...... What's wrong? Why don't we open the box and see?"

Xiao Tianhe laughed: "How is it possible? If something really happens, it will be a big joke in the world! I guess she should be meditating, right? We have nothing to do, so don't bother her." ”

"That'...... All right. Ye Linglong jumped, jumped on a branch, leaned on the trunk, and used a hat fan to cool off. Xiao Tianhe closed his eyes under the tree to recuperate. What was supposed to be a peaceful night changed because of a sudden light wind.

The breeze brought a rare coolness, but also a small sound that was almost inaudible. This sound was still captured by Ye Linglong's ears: "That's ...... It's the sound of running water!" She immediately rose and looked into the distance, but all she could see was the dense woods under the bright moonlight.

"What's wrong?" asked Xiao Tianhe under the tree.

"I'll go into the woods. Ye Linglong jumped down from the tree.

"What are you going to see?" Xiao Tianhe was puzzled.

"I just heard the sound of running water, and I guess there must be a little river in the woods, and I want to go there...... Take a bath. ”

"How can you do it alone? I'll be with you...... Uh......" Xiao Tianhe shook his head, "Don't go." I'm not at ease if you go alone. ”

"It's okay, no one is here at all, I'll come back for you in a while, and you can go to the river for a dip." Ye Linglong was only thinking about the cool river water at this time.

Xiao Tianhe thought for a while: "That's it, let's let Yan'er and Xiaoxue accompany you." After the three demon girls came out of Meng Zhang's realm, they walked to the depths of the forest with Ye Linglong talking and laughing. With them protecting Ye Linglong, Xiao Tianhe was naturally a lot more relieved and continued to meditate.

Time passes slowly in peace. After a long time, Xiao Tianhe opened his eyes. The four girls have been gone for a long time, and it's time to come back. Restlessly, he climbed up the treetops and peered deeper into the woods. But the dense foliage kept everything out. Another half an hour passed in the wandering, and Xiao Tianhe couldn't sit still anymore. He summoned Ao Jianwei, Shi Haoming, and Lei Xiaoyan all out.

"You summoned Yan'er and the three of them just to accompany Miss Ye to take a bath...... I don't even know what to say about you. Shi Hao was obviously a little angry.

"Girls love to be clean...... I can't stop it, I can't let Linglong herself

Let's go?" Xiao Tianhe spread his hands helplessly, "There are few people here, and there are three of them to protect it, so it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any danger, but why haven't you come back after two hours?"

Lei Xiaoyan said: "Don't take it for granted. If you can see the 'danger' at a glance, then it can still be considered 'dangerous'? Why don't you tell me to follow them?"

"What are you doing with it? Want to peek at Sister Yan taking a bath?" Ao Jianxuan choked.

"We know each other quite well, do you think I look like that kind of person?" Lei Xiaoyan glanced at him.

"Like!" Ao nodded his head.

"Alright, stop bickering. Shi Haoming said, "Yan'er, Xiaoxue, and Xiaomei are not weak, and they shouldn't come back for so long." Besides, even if you meet some evil people, you can't ignore the sound of the fight, right?"

"I didn't hear that. Xiao Tianhe, "That's why I called you all out." One person was left here to watch the car, and the other two followed me to look for them. ”

"Just let the Jairus brothers stay. Lei Xiaoyan hurriedly said.

Shi Haoming said: "You also stay, and the two of you will take care of the car." I'll go with Tianhe. ”

"No, no, no, I have to go. Yan'er may be in danger, and letting me wait here is no different than a knife. Lei Xiaoyan looked at Xiao Tianhe eagerly.

"Alright, Haoming, I'll go with him. You and the Jairus brothers are secretly watching the car. Don't show up until you have to. "Xiao Tian Dao.

"That's good. Shi Haoming told Lei Xiaoyan, "Don't be reckless and ignore anything, remember, your main task is to protect Tianhe!"

"Okay!" Lei Xiaoyan took out the Overlord Hammer and carried it on his shoulder.

The two of them walked deep into the woods in the direction of the four girls.

"It's so hot outside!" "It didn't take long for Lei Xiaoyan to gasp.

"It's because of the heat that Linglong has to take a bath. If it's not hot, it's fine. ”

"However, I don't quite understand," Lei Xiaoyan scratched his head, "why don't you let her enter the Meng Zhang realm? ”

Indeed, in Meng Zhangjie, "the four seasons are like spring", or there is no such thing as "season" at all.

"I can't see anyone on the road, and when I arrive at Yuanming Island, I suddenly appear, and if I am discovered by the ears and eyes of the pirates, I must be suspicious. Xiao Tianhe shook his head.

"Who said she was allowed to stay in there all the time? I mean when she wanted to take a bath, she was put in Meng Zhangjie. After washing, let it out. Lei Xiaoyan said.

"Is there a river in Meng Zhang's realm?" Xiao Tianhe, as the lord of Meng Zhangpei, of course knew the situation in the realm.

"You can't make a river out without a river? You are the master of the Mengzhang realm, the mountains, rivers and mountains, aren't they all at your disposal? You make a sea of turquoise grass, and then make a clear lotus pond, let Miss Ye wash as long as she likes in it, it is clean, comfortable, and safe. Doesn't the girl's house love to be clean? If you want me to say it's not hot, you should do the same. You, don't use such a simple method, why bother to come to the woods to find Xiaohe when she can't stand it anymore!" Lei Xiaoyan rarely babbled so many words at one time, and Xiao Tianhe couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"I didn't expect it!" Xiao Tianhe was extremely helpless, "No wonder Haoming was a little angry just now." Blame me for this, blame me. ”

"Let me tell you, don't think that our seven demon clans are your strongest protection, in fact, Meng Zhangpei is. Lei Xiaoyan said again.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I don't know. This is what Shi Haoming said. Ask him for yourself later. ”

"Hmm...... Hey, listen!"

The two of them listened closely, and there was an extremely slight sound in the distance.

"It's the sound of running water!" Xiao Tianhe was very sure, "This should be the voice that Linglong heard before!"

"Then they should be in front!" Lei Xiaoyan had just taken a big stride when he heard a "pop" sound, like the sound of something falling into the water.

"Did you hear that?" Lei Xiaoyan asked in surprise.

Xiao Tianhe's face was gloomy: "I don't feel good, hurry up and take a look!" Judging from the sound of "poof", the thing falling into the water should not be light, but there is not even a fist-sized stone in this forest. What could it be? Xiao Tianhe could feel that Li Cuiyan and the three of them were in front of him. "If it weren't for the sound of them jumping into the river themselves, someone would have ...... it" The more Xiao Tianhe thought about it, the more scared he became, and fifteen buckets of water in his heart - seven up and eight down.

Not long after the two of them ran, they saw several figures lying on the ground in front of them.

"It's them!" Lei Xiaoyan rushed over, Xiao Tianhe just wanted to follow, but a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, he hurriedly stopped and hid behind a big tree.

When Lei Xiaoyan arrived beside Li Cuiyan and the others, his movements suddenly became strange, his speed slowed down, and he staggered as if he was drunk.

Xiao Tianhe was shocked, and speculated in his heart in every possible way, was it poison, was it a magic circle, and for the sake of safety, he held his breath first. In fact, he hid behind a tree because he was worried about being attacked by the wicked hidden in the dark, but he didn't expect even a good player like Lei Xiaoyan to be put down so quickly. "They are not ......dead," Xiao Tianhe could feel that several demon clans were just unconscious, "The poison that can make a big man like Lei Xiaoyan stunned in an instant is inevitable, and it spreads when the wind blew just now, so I should feel a little uncomfortable...... So that shouldn't be poison. Is that a circle? But I've never heard of a circle like this......" he guessed, keeping a wary eye on his surroundings.

In a state of nervous tension, every moment is long. But after a long time, the wicked man still did not appear. This is strange, if the wicked man knew that Lei Xiaoyan had a companion, then he should have made a move on Xiao Tianhe at this time, and if he didn't know, the wicked man should also show up and continue the next move. Xiao Tianhe had already counted the figures that had fallen to the ground, and Lei Xiaoyan was exactly five, so what was the "poof" sound before? Also, it stands to reason

It should be very close to the river, but neither sight nor hearing shows any sign of a river nearby.

Xiao Tianhe forcibly suppressed his flustered mood and guessed the intentions of the wicked. There is no river nearby, which means that the sound of flowing water is fake, and the wicked are really so "like gods", knowing that Ye Linglong will definitely come to take a bath when he hears the "sound of water"? Xiao Tianhe thought, "Since it wasn't deliberately aimed at us, and the wicked people didn't directly take the lives of a few of them, maybe things aren't as bad as I just imagined...... Well, I'm going to see what you want to do. Xiao Tianhe decided to be patient with that "wicked man".

After a while, suddenly, a light lit up in the grass in the distance caught Xiao Tianhe's attention. The light was blue and faint, like the light of a fairy sword or a magic knife. At the same time, the "sound of water flowing" came clearly again! "It will glow, and it will make the sound of water flowing, what is that?" Xiao Tianhe suddenly remembered a kind of snake that he had heard of in the Great Red Realm, that kind of snake is highly venomous, and when it molts, it will leave the old skin of its tail, and when it shakes its tail, the cavity between the old skin and the new skin will emit a sound similar to the sound of running water, tricking the thirsty prey to "come to the door" in order to attack. "Could it be that hiding in the grass is a big poisonous snake with blue eyes that glows blue, first bite a few people's ankles, and then come out and devour them after they are poisoned to death?"

But the truth is that he guessed wrong. The grass not far away shook a few times, and a figure emerged from it. The man knelt on the ground, hunched over, fiddling with something in the grass. With a slight abnormal sound, the blue light disappeared, and the sound of running water disappeared. The man put a cloak over his body and stood up. Xiao Tianhe visually measured that he was about nine feet tall, tall and thin, like a long bamboo pole.

After putting on the cloak, the man turned his head to look at the five people who had fallen to the ground nearby, shook his head, and sighed softly. When Xiao Tianhe heard this, he was even more surprised in his heart, it turned out that it was a woman! It is already rare for a man to grow to nine feet, let alone a woman! Judging from that sigh, the woman did not seem to have malicious intent. I saw her walk to someone's side, squatted down and picked it up horizontally, and walked in the direction of Xiao Tianhe.

Xiao Tianhe hid in the tree and did not move, holding his breath as she passed under the tree. She hugged Ye Linglong more than ten feet away from the big tree and gently put it down, returned to the original place and began to hug the second person, and then the third. Except for Lei Xiaoyan, who couldn't hold it and dragged it away, she was quite gentle with the movements of the four girls.

Xiao Tianhe noticed that the position where the woman put down the few people was exactly the same as the relationship between the positions where they originally fell to the ground, who should lie next to whom and who to lie next to. After doing this, the woman hurried away. To be on the safe side, Xiao Tianhe hid in the tree for another half an hour, and then gently descended from the tree. The five people on the ground were still not awake, and he planned to go to the grass that the mysterious woman had come out of to find out.

But who knew that as soon as he walked to the place where Lei Xiaoyan fainted before, Xiao Tianhe suddenly felt a strong sense of dizziness coming, only to feel that the sky was spinning, and his eyes were blurry. He didn't even have time to think of "bad" before he lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

......

I don't know how long it took, Xiao Tianhe woke up groggily, and the first thing that caught his eye was Ye Linglong's worried face.

"Ah, you're awake!" Ye Linglong said happily. Several demon clans in the Meng Zhang realm also came over.

"I'm ...... Where is it?" Xiao Tianhe sat up from Ye Linglong's arms.

"You fainted like us, but it took a lot of effort for us to bring you two back!" Ye Linglong said, "Lei Xiaoyan woke up half an hour ago, and you are the last one to wake up." ”

"Not really, because I'm the last in a coma!" Xiao Tianhe felt a pain in his head and shook it slightly. Judging from the sky, it should be the next day.

"Tianhe, what's going on?" Shi Haoming came over and asked. When he heard Xiao Tianhe say "coma is the latest", he guessed that Xiao Tianhe must have seen something.

Xiao Tianhe told all the strange things that happened the night before.

"Let's go over and take a look! maybe the master has hidden some treasure there!" Lei Xiaoyan was very excited. In his mind, what can shine must not be mundane.

Shi Haoming glared at him: "You are not satisfied when you come back with a life?" I tell you not to be reckless, you are still so reckless, if that master has evil intentions, you will be all finished!"

"Hey, don't I also want to save people's hearts! Fortunately, Tianhe is clever enough to not rush over with me!"

Shi Haoming analyzed: "According to what Tianhe said, that master should not have discovered him. But...... It shouldn't be, he can even set up a magic circle that can make people stunned in an instant, how could he not find the Tianhe on the tree?"

"I'm afraid it was a momentary oversight. Xiao Tianhe sighed, "Actually, I was also negligent, she carried a few of you away from the circle area, which means that she didn't remove the circle, but I still stepped into it stupidly." ”

Shi Haoming suddenly asked eagerly, "After you woke up, where did you see Tianhe lying there? Besides, who touched Tianhe first?"

"I went first. Then Xiaoxue and Xiaomei also passed. Tianhe was lying in the place he had just mentioned, about twenty zhang away from us. Ye Linglong replied.

"That'...... You three didn't faint again?" Shi Haoming asked to the point.

All three shook their heads.

Shi Haoming hugged his arms, as if saying to himself: "Hmm...... According to the woman's way of acting, if she saw Tianhe fainting in the circle, she should also carry him away from the circle. And Tianhe has been lying in the same place, which shows that the woman did not go and returned. However, the three of you didn't fall into a coma again when you passed, and that's 'funny'......"

Things have fallen into a wonderful contradiction: if the mysterious woman removed the magic circle when she left, then Xiao Tianhe should not be unconscious, and if the magic circle was not removed, then Ye Linglong and the three of them should be unconscious again.
