Chapter 25: Shaohua (17)
Mu Yangsheng came to the lake with the fruit, and there were several young men standing next to Ye Ying, as if begging him for something, Mu Yangsheng slowed down and approached, only to hear a monk plead: "Ye Gongzi, can you join us for the assessment task of Hanshui Lake tomorrow?"
Another monk chimed in and asked, "Yes, yes, you can come with us, you are alone, and the cold water lake will definitely not be able to pass." ”
This is with robbing people!
Mu Yangsheng squeezed over, stood in front of Ye Ying, looked at those people proudly, and said, "What kind of person, Ye Ying is with us! ”
A bold monk retorted: "Childe, there are already four of you there, Ye Gongzi didn't say that he was with you, we are here to discuss with him, how can you do this?"
"That's it!"
"Aren't we negotiating? ”
"Why don't you ask Ye Gongzi and see who he is willing to go with?"
The crowd was arguing, and Mu Yangsheng put the fruit in his arms on the stone, raised his hand to stop it, and said, "Okay! ”
After speaking, he turned around, the expression on his face instantly became gentle and amiable, and he had a flattering smile, "Ye Ying, how can you say that we were friends in trouble just now, Ah Xiao just saved your life, should you repay it?"
Ye Ying looked at him without waves, and said coldly: "She is in a group with you?"
Mu Yangsheng was stunned, although he wasn't sure, but let's get Ye Ying in hand first!
"That's right!" he said confidently, and pointed to the stone beach behind him, Ah Xiao was being wrapped around Luan Yiran's hands, "Look at it, how ~ and ~ harmonious~"
Ye Ying lowered his eyes and thought about it, this level of Hanshui Lake is indeed quite dangerous, if he is alone, it will definitely be difficult to pass, and besides, Ah Xiao did save his life just now, instead of taking risks with these people whose strength is not clear, it is better to conservatively choose the four Mu Yangsheng who have known strength.
"Hmm. Ye Ying nodded slightly.
Mu Yangsheng clapped his hands excitedly, turned around and looked at the people behind him, and said with a smug smile: "Okay, okay!
The crowd dispersed in disappointment, Ye Ying's strength was obvious to all last night, and he took the short knife that Ah Xiao flew out with his bare hands, and the light skill alone was very powerful.
Mu Yangsheng turned his head with a smile, picked up a few fruits placed on the stone and handed them to Ye Ying, "Ye Ying, this is the fruit I just picked in the woods, for you." ”
Ye Ying glanced down, frowned slightly, and said, "This fruit is poisonous." ”
"Ah, no" Mu Yangsheng was stunned, his face turned pale, he had just eaten more than ten of them!
Seeing that his expression was very shocked, Ye Ying closed his eyes and said, "But poison is not fatal, you may not be able to sleep tonight." ”
"Why ......" Mu Yangsheng looked at him with a puzzled expression, and just after asking, an abnormal pain suddenly came from his abdomen, his expression instantly became hideous and distorted, and he threw the fruit in his hand, bent over and ran into the woods.
Night gradually fell, everyone set up a bonfire on the stone beach in groups, Luan Yiran and Feiyang sat together to grill fish, Ah Xiao fell asleep on the grass behind her, and Ye Ying was still meditating motionless on the stone.
Poor Mu Yangsheng kept running to the woods, when he was picking fruits, he was greedy for a while, and ate more than ten red fruits at a time, and now he finally understood what Ye Ying's last words meant, tonight, he really couldn't sleep.
Luan Yiran carried the grilled fish to Ah Xiao's side, and gently poked her shoulder with her fingers, "Ah Xiao, do you want to eat fish? ”
Ah Xiao opened her eyes and looked at it, only to see that Luan Yiran was holding a black unknown object forked with a tree branch in her hand, if it wasn't shaped like a fish, she really couldn't see it.
"Not hungry. Coldly spit out two words, Ah Xiao closed her eyes, turned over and turned her back to Luan Yiran and continued to sleep.
Fei Yang smiled and looked at this side, and said, "I'm also baked this one." ”
Luan Yiran glanced at the fish in his hand, although it looked ugly, but it smelled fragrant, and it definitely didn't taste bad, since Ah Xiao didn't want to eat it, then ......
She stood up, ran towards the lake with broken steps, and shouted softly: "Ye Ying~ Do you eat fish?"
Ye Ying opened his eyes slightly, only to see Luan Yiran teleporting in front of him, handing the grilled fish with both hands, revealing a pure smile, and said, "Do you eat fish?"
"Thank you. Ye Ying thanked him, stretched out his hand and took it steadily, he wanted to eat it again for a while, but Luan Yiran looked at him expectantly, he was stunned, and took a bite gently.
This bite was full of bitterness, Ye Ying chewed two mouthfuls and spit it out, there was no light on the stone he was sitting on, originally from the afterglow of the fire in front of him, he could vaguely see that this was the appearance of a fish, and it smelled okay, but when he took his mouth, except for the mushy and bitter taste, he couldn't eat any fish taste at all.
Luan Yiran watched him spit out the fish in his mouth with a bitter face, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, the two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was suddenly a little embarrassing.
......
The night is quiet, the people on the stone stall have fallen asleep, there is no bright moon in the world in the mirror, the dark sky seems to be an endless black hole, there is not a single star dotted, there is no trace of light, the depths of the forest are flashing with dots of green light, from far to near, the fireflies with fluttering wings fly towards the stone beach in groups.
As if hearing the sound of wings fluttering, Ah Xiao opened her eyes suddenly, because she was facing the forest to fall asleep, and when she opened her eyes, she could see glowing green fireflies, flying in the direction of the crowd in groups, all the creatures in this forest are very dangerous, these insects must have bad intentions coming so mightily.
Ah Xiao hurriedly got up and stood up, strode to Luan Yiran's side and woke her up, "Luan Yiran, wake up, it's dangerous." ”
"Uh-huh. Luan Yiran hummed, but her body was motionless, and she even hugged Ah Xiao's arm and continued to fall asleep.
Ah Xiao sighed, watching the insect swarm gradually fly in, the situation was urgent, she directly lifted Luan Yiran up with her other hand, and said angrily: "Wake up!
The stone beach was originally located by the fountain, and behind him was a deep and confined wood, Ah Xiao's shout, the echo instantly resounded all around, most of the people were woken up, and a few were about to open their mouths to scold, inadvertently glimpsed the green worm flying from the forest, anger and sleepiness were instantly gone, and hurriedly woke up the companion.
Luan Yiran opened her eyes in a daze, the direction of her gaze was exactly the direction where the green light was flying, her eyes instantly opened wide, as if she had seen something terrible, and her lips were trembling.
Ah Xiao asked, "What is this? Do you know it?"
"I've forgotten my name, but this thing eats people, and they're like black dead spiders, immortal and immortal, so what can I do!" Luan Yiran shouted.
"What should I do then?"
"We're not going to die here!"
"I don't want to die, what now!"
As soon as her words came out, the echo reached everyone's ears in the next second, and the crowd instantly made an uproar, and Mu Yangsheng, who had not fully woken up, was sleeping on Feiyang's shoulder, and when he heard Luan Yiran's words, he suddenly opened his eyes with an expression of disbelief.
Ah Xiao turned her head to look around, her eyes fell on the clear lake, generally insects are afraid of water, I hope her conjecture is useful!
"Get out into the water. Ah Xiao shouted calmly, and when her words fell, she pulled Luan Yiran and ran to the lake, Mu Yangsheng, who was half a beat slower, watched them run away, and hurriedly hugged Feiyang's arm to chase over.
"Wait for us!"
The crowd on the rocky beach jumped into the lake one after another, and Ah Xiao was not good at water, so he kept his head exposed on the surface of the lake and did not sink for a long time, only to see a dark blue figure standing on the shore, he turned his back to the lake, and did not seem to plan to jump down.
"You want to be eaten by worms?" asked Ah Xiao in a slow tone.
She didn't want to care about the life or death of this person, but because Ye Ying blocked the black death spider for her just now, he could be regarded as her benefactor, and she couldn't watch him die because of his recklessness, otherwise, she couldn't repay the favor she owed him.
Ye Ying ignored her, and still stood dumbfounded, looking at the flying swarm of fireflies with eyes as determined as a dead soldier, but due to the mask obscuration, Ah Xiao couldn't see his death-defying expression from the side.
The firefly passed through the barrier and came to the edge of the stone beach, and quickly approached Ye Ying, Ah Xiao frowned, is this guy really going to die?
Suddenly there was a sound of a sword coming out of its sheath on the shore, and Ah Xiao looked up, Ye Ying was standing upright with a sword in his hand, as if he was preparing to face the flying insect swarm head-on.
Under the firelight, his back looked stronger and stronger, the biting cold wind hit, the dark blue robe fluttered lightly in the wind, at this moment, he was like a soldier who was determined to fight to the death with the enemy, which was admirable.
"You're really going to die. Ah Xiao asked in a calm tone, looking at this guy's appearance, his temper should be quite stubborn, she didn't want to care about him, but she really couldn't watch her benefactor die here.
Ye Ying turned his head to look at her, and said in a deep voice: "You go down first, I'll deal with them." ”
Ah Xiao said: "But they can't be killed!"
Ye Ying didn't speak, his eyes looked firmly at the approaching insect swarm, he jumped into the air on his knees, and then quickly turned around and swung his sword, the yellow sword qi flew towards the insect swarm like a whirlwind, just hitting it, flashing a yellow light, instantly illuminating the huge stone beach.
Just as he turned over and was about to jump forward, suddenly a force wrapped around his waist, and before he could check, Ye Ying's whole person was pulled back by this force, as if he felt that he was about to fall into the lake, he took a deep breath and held his breath, closing his eyes tightly.
Ah Xiao didn't want to care about him, if it weren't for the kindness he had for herself, she wouldn't be nosy.
The lake is not very deep, almost the height of two men, Ah Xiao pinched the back of Ye Ying's neck and pressed him down to prevent him from showing his head.
Above the lake, there was a sudden sound of torrential rain lapping on the water, Ah Xiao looked up from under the water, and the thousands of fireflies were hovering above the lake, never daring to approach, sure enough, the insects were still afraid of water.
Ye Ying's eyes widened, his cheeks bulged like a well-fed squirrel, Ah Xiao looked at his hands and feet constantly struggling, as if he was full of fear of the environment he was in, she raised her eyebrows and was stunned, and a thought suddenly responded in her mind: Could this guy be afraid of water?
Under the lake, a monk couldn't hold his breath, and he didn't hold back and wanted to go out to take a breath, but as soon as his head poked out, the insects swarmed quickly, and with the piercing screams on the lake, the monk's eyes were gone.
