Chapter 34: The Scabbard
Obviously, he came to look for the sword, but now that the scabbard is gone, Lu Jiarin is so panicked, Mu Han is a little puzzled, and he is puzzled, so he asks.
"Isn't it just a scabbard, what are you looking for it?"
"Without a scabbard, what's the use of the Ripple Cloud Sword?"
Listening to Lu Jialin's words, Mu Han looked down at the dimly lit Lianyun, and the corners of his mouth pulled an embarrassed smile, thinking that this was really ruthless.
However, ruthlessness is ruthless, since Lu Jialin's goal has been transferred, the goal of this trip must have changed, if you want to get out of this dangerous place as soon as possible, you still have to find the scabbard.
But then again, there is another hint for finding a sword, how to find a scabbard?
"The Lianyun Sword was originally in a scabbard when it fell, even if it is separated now, I believe that it will not be too far apart, just look for it nearby. ”
Listening to Lu Jiarin's words, Mu Han nodded, and looked at him again, and above was the 'sun' that exuded cold air.
"You're ......"
"This is my star map. Lu Jialin said, "This willow tree is very weird, I'm just temporarily suppressing it, you act quickly." ”
Although he really wanted to ask Lu Jiarin how he could still get rid of Willow's uniform in that situation, since he said that time was pressing, he didn't have a chance to ask.
Mu Han began to look around, but the branch was so big, he looked at it after two or three eyes, and he didn't see anything, that is, it was not here.
Lu Jialin said that the sword fell down with the scabbard, and it should be nearby, but there is also a certain range nearby, so she can't be allowed to look for all this piece, right? Maybe before she can find much, the willow tree will start moving again.
However, she still tried to climb down and look for it carefully, and let Lu Jiarin see that she had tried so hard and would still fail, so she just gave up.
I have to say that in the face of the tasks assigned by Lu Jialin one after another, Mu Han was really a little annoyed.
The willow tree was very tall, and one branch was so wide and so high, that she had a lot of effort to get down.
Buckling some ravines and vertical and horizontal bark, Mu Han's right hand hurt a little, and he felt as if the scabs on it would be rubbed off.
As a young man in the 21st century, even if there is no actual injury, but because of the pain, because of the sense of pulling, it makes her deeply uncomfortable, and even a little diaphragm.
Mu Han once again had the idea of why he wanted to come to this troubled water, obviously he could sit on the chair properly, tinkering with his resume, and usually brushing the dishes, and occasionally making a cameo appearance as a takeaway brother.
Is it because Lu Jialin said that he might die before the age of forty?
It doesn't seem to be because of this.
The last time he went back, he didn't really believe Lu Jiarin's statement, and it wasn't until she inadvertently burned the willow tree to ashes that she felt that Lu Jialin might not really lie to her.
But in any case, such a life is much more tiring than when I was on Earth, and let alone forty years old, I may not even live to be thirty years old if I continue like this.
Thinking vaguely about the reason why he was here, Mu Han's feet finally stepped on the willow branch a little lower, and when he looked up, he couldn't see anything.
Mu Han glanced at Lu Jialin, who was now above her, and he didn't move, he was stabilizing the cold sun, but judging from the tone of his voice at that moment, he couldn't hold on for long.
"Lianyun, where is the scabbard?" Mu Han said to the two swords pinned to his waist.
The faint light of the Ripple Cloud Sword flickered, but there was no response.
Mu Han sighed, how could this sword feel so like an oil lamp.
Lianyun Sword can't be counted on, Lianqing Sword doesn't know where the scabbard is, and now all she can rely on is her own eyes.
Fortunately, the cold sun that Lu Jiarin made was not only cold, but also very bright, even if he couldn't find it, he could at least see the surroundings clearly.
This willow tree is so big that if you use the upper and lower branches to layer it, you have to have ten or twenty layers, and the distance between each layer must be at least two or three meters high.
That's how it counts, it's a 20-story residential building.
Of course, in terms of the height of the building, it is actually not very high, but it is just a tree, or a moving tree, and the difficulty of climbing must be added to a little fear that Mu Han has always had in his heart.
After going around the branch, Mu Han climbed down again, although he was already very careful about the scabs on his hands, he would always accidentally touch them a few times, which made her more irritable in addition to pain, and almost forcibly tore off those scabs on impulse.
Thankfully, the pain of reason or tearing off the scab stopped her from doing so, and she honestly climbed down.
Speaking of which, because the tree is big, the ravine on the bark is very deep, and she doesn't think it's too difficult to climb, but blindly listening to Lu Jiarin's command makes her a little bored.
Why should I listen to him?
It's simply unreasonable to think like this, thinking that she didn't listen to her parents' orders at the beginning, but now she will risk her life to listen to the words of a person she has known for a long time to do things.
Thinking about it, Mu Han sighed, feeling that this was probably fate, he deserved to make waves in his ordinary life, and maybe he could be a hero.
But this idea was rejected by her as soon as it came to her head, a hero or something, may live in her life, but it must not be herself.
It's definitely not presumptuous, she just realizes that most of the heroes in movies and novels have a tragic ending.
And she only has occasional feelings, and when her brain is pumped out, she has taken on a responsibility that she shouldn't have shouldered, and in the face of a very miserable ending, she will not have a little consciousness.
There was nothing suspicious about the floor below, at least not at least from her general glance. But she didn't know what the scabbard looked like, so she had to look more seriously, and in the serious search, time passed.
Lu Jialin frowned, this time the frown was completely because he found that he couldn't hold the situation a little, the cold sun in the sky felt much smaller with the naked eye, and some of the roots of the huge willow tree had even moved.
"Didn't find it?" Lu Jialin's voice sounded a little urgent.
But this did not affect Mu Han's progress in finding the scabbard, and after vaguely hearing Lu Jiarin's words, she shook her head and replied no, and then glanced at Lu Jialin above.
What caught my eye was the much smaller cold sun.
Then Mu Han's nerves tightened, and she realized a very tragic and urgent fact, her time may be running out.
immediately turned around and continued to look for the scabbard, but because the much smaller cold sun had been seen by her, her movements couldn't help but be a little flustered, and it was estimated that it was not as efficient as when she was slacking off at work before.
One floor, two floors.
Mu Han climbed down a little more, and the scab on his hand was finally pulled up to a corner, revealing the skin that had not yet fully grown inside.
didn't have time to glance at his hand, Mu Han's gaze continued to spread around, but he was still very careful, for fear of missing something.
So in the entanglement of a group of branches, I saw a little light.
Mu Han's eyes also lit up, and he took two quick steps, almost tripping over the ravine in the bark. But she didn't care, and came to the light and carefully brushed aside the tiny branches and leaves in front of her, and a quaint scabbard with a dim light appeared in front of her.
Looking for a needle in a haystack, I really caught it!
Mu Han thought that this metaphor might be exaggerated, but it best reflected his current mood, he was very happy, and he had the urge to thank his parents, thank CCTV, etc.
But first, she had to tell Lu Jialin about it.
Looking up, there was already a long distance between the two, and the distance was very high. But since the neighborhood was quiet, and there was not even the wind, Mu Han shouted Lu Jiarin up and could still be easily heard.
"Hey, the scabbard has been found!"
As soon as the words came out, Mu Han saw that the cold sun was half smaller, and he was immediately startled, almost sitting there, and hurriedly continued to shout, let Lu Jiarin stabilize, if the cold sun is extinguished, they may be wiped out here.
Needless to say than Mu Han, Lu Jialin naturally knew the current situation, but he didn't have any good way, just frowned, looked down lightly, and glanced at Mu Han.
"You get out of here with your sword and scabbard first, and I'll be there in a moment. ”
Lu Jialin said very calmly, but Mu Han is not a fool, how could she not know Lu Jiarin's current situation? It is difficult to maintain such a small cold sun, not to mention that it will be even more difficult to move around and hold on until she leaves.
From his own point of view, Mu Han is quite willing to be a fool now, as if he doesn't know anything, he turns around and leaves.
Judging from the plot, she should stay here now, and then just like those bloody TVs, shouting that if you don't go, I won't leave, be a serious vase heroine.
However, after her brain moved, she didn't want to do either, so she could only look up and ask again.
"Are you sure you can do it?"
"Absolutely. ”
Lu Jialin is as confident as ever, but it seems to be a little more talkative, if it was before, it must be one word - OK.
However, Mu Han didn't pay attention to this, all she wanted was an answer from Lu Jialin, since he was still so confident, Mu Han turned around and left.
Of course, after taking two steps, she still has to climb down.
When he came, he was directly taken away by Lianqing Sword, and when he returned, he had to take it step by step, such a big contrast made Mu Han very emotional, and at the same time, he didn't forget to look at the scabs on his hands.
There was no more bloodshed, and Mu Han was really satisfied.
Although this tree is tall, if you don't care about anything, it just goes straight down, Mu Han's current physical fitness is completely supportive, and he will soon return to the ground.
Of course, this ground refers to the layer of soil that has been raised by willow trees.
Looking at the dim Lianyun Sword and scabbard in his hand, and then touching the Lianqing Sword pinned to his waist, Mu Han somehow pulled out the Lianqing Sword and inserted it into the scabbard.
As the sword entered the scabbard, the last bit of light also dissipated, and only the hilt of the Lianqing sword and the quaint scabbard came into view.
