Chapter 662: Strange Peach Spring
I don't know if she is also a little nervous, he seems to be able to feel her body temperature, and the aroma is getting stronger and stronger.
No wonder to light candles.
Chitose's little hand hung over his shoulder, soft as boneless, but then he raised it and poked his face, and then pointed diagonally upward.
Yan Saburo understands very well that this gesture has only one meaning:
See.
So he looked up and looked up at the sky.
On the treetops in the forest, I don't know when a few tiny points of light flew in, blue and green, like fireflies in summer. They hovered and roamed around the neighborhood as if they were looking for something.
In a few moments, they flew closer.
Yan Saburo subconsciously lowered his eyes and no longer looked directly.
These points of light slowly circled around twice, as if they didn't notice him and Chitose at all, and even one of them landed on the branch next to Chitose.
In a short time, they floated away.
After a long while, Chitose lifted the big hate: "Get up." ”
Yan Saburo stood up straight, his height was almost the same as her: "What's that?"
"I don't know, it's like some kind of ......," Chitose still looked in the direction they were leaving, pondering appropriate words, "...... Spirits?"
"Like you during the day?"
Yan Saburo's words hit the nail on the head, Asura can not only appear as a spirit during the day. But her form at that time was smoke, which was different from this point of light.
Chitose sighed, but said again: "I'm not sure, this is something from the Hidden Kingdom after all." ”
The Hidden Country is a world of its own, and to them it is a different world. Different worlds have different rules and will spawn different species. She couldn't tell what they were.
"Threatened?"
"Yes!" she was sure this time, "I can sense that these things are full of malice." With them patrolling, it's no wonder that there are no guards in this place. ”
Since it is a forbidden place, it is necessary to strengthen the guards, otherwise there are many visitors on the Crystal Island now, and it is difficult to ensure that there are not one or two who break in by mistake.
But there was no figure here from beginning to end, and it looked completely undefended, which in itself was wrong.
The two moved on.
The stone road is straight and there are few turns, which shows that the purpose of the road is not to let people walk in the jungle, but to reach the destination.
Along the way, the two encountered three more spot patrols. Chitose's perceptual power is more sensitive than that of the other party, and he can cover Yan Saburo in advance when he returns, so that the breath of this big living person will not be detected by the other party.
Yan Saburo also knew that her inconspicuous light gray coat should be a treasure, which could cover the two of them. But she hadn't been used in any of her previous adventures.
Chitose seemed to understand what he was thinking, and said lightly: "This gray piece is made of the skin of the Hidden Soul Beast, and it can't blind the eyes of the living. ”
I see.
The stone road is very long, and Yan Saburo has not seen any living people along the way, so he can't help but be surprised: "Is this only patrolling by light points?" This should be the core area of Crystal Island, at least there should be some attendants coming and going, but now it is so quiet that only the wind and grass are heard.
"It seems so. The two climbed over a small hill, and Chitose suddenly pointed forward, "It's here." ”
The dense forest ends here, and the eyes suddenly open up.
There is a circle of round buildings in the valley in front, which looks like a copy of Zhu Xianlou, which is still exquisite, but it is a black wall and gold tile, which looks low and luxurious. The gold tiles that Yan Saburo had seen elsewhere had been made and stacked one by one, but this building was not. The gold paste on the tiles also spilled onto the wall, one after another, one after another, which looked a little rough, but the color of the gold itself already represented the ultimate wealth in the world.
I believe that the group has walked out of the dense forest. The guards bowed to him and walked back, only Tsunza walked along the stone path to the round tower.
Obviously, this place is not qualified for the guards to enter.
The round building is circular and hollow.
Walking here, Chitose extinguished the candle and climbed to the top of the big leaf banyan with Tsubame Saburo.
The banyan tree grew very tall, and the treetops were ten feet above the ground, and the two of them hid in the dense foliage and looked down.
"What's that?" Yan Saburo's voice was a little surprised.
When I climbed to a high place and looked, I found that there was a dead tree in the middle of the round building, which was charred black as charcoal.
With the eyes of the two of them, they could also see people walking around in the round building.
There's finally someone here.
And what Yan Saburo was referring to was the dead wood.
There are many reasons why trees dry up, such as insects and ants, damp rot, or strangled by vines. But the bare branches of the dead wood were as black as midnight, and there were no leaves or branches.
As soon as Tsubame Saburo saw it, he knew that it was burnt. It's not even dead wood anymore, it's dead wood.
It was supposed to burn in a forest fire.
But in the middle of the valley like a paradise, why leave a dead tree?
Yan Saburo wanted to get off the tree, but Chitose waved his hand: "Don't be rash." This place is dangerous. ”
There was nothing between the woodland and the round building, not a single tree, just green space. This kind of environment is not suitable for Xiao San to lurk in the past to find out information.
If only she could get farther away from the wooden bells, she could go alone.
It's a pity.
At this moment, dozens of light spots flew out of the surrounding woodland and headed straight for the round tower.
Almost at the same time, dozens of points of light also rose inside the round building, floating in all directions.
"They're changing shifts. Chitose whispered in Tsubazaburo's ear, "This is their home base." ”
The heat and aroma sprayed on his ears, and the boy was itchy, but he didn't dare to shake his head. Three feet away, a point of light had just flown over them.
When these things disappeared into the night, Chitose asked him, "What now?"
And so on. "The last thing Yan Saburo lacks is patience," he will come out sooner or later. ”
The boy has not forgotten the purpose of his trip. The round towers in the valley look strange, but they are not here to explore, but to learn the origin of the Cangwu Stone from the Faithful Cha.
Other than that, he can turn a blind eye. "It's only right to get into less trouble. ”
She snorted lowly, "I'm bored to death." ”
The mountain wind blows the banyan leaves like ocean waves. Chitose's ash covered the two of them, and she simply tilted it towards Yan Saburo: "It's so cold." ”
I don't know if there are four seasons on the island here, but the night breeze is so cold that she doesn't like it.
She's always loved the warmth of the sun.
The boy's body was as warm as a little sun.
Yan Saburo didn't squeak, just stared at the scorched wood in the middle of the round building.
Chitose poked him in the face and repeated, "It's so cold!"
These three words dragged on for a long time, and the aftermath trembled twice.
He glanced at her, "Will the Asura be afraid of the cold?"
"Yes. She puffed into her fingertips, "Aren't you cold?"
The island is cold at night, but he has real power to protect his body. Besides, as long as it wasn't snowing in Yicheng, he wouldn't feel how cold it was. But Chitose's fingertips are like ice strips.
