Volume 2 Relics of the Divine Throne Chapter 35 "Thieves" in the Night
Finally came out of that ancient building, Xia Mingchang breathed a sigh of relief, so that he would not have to be "hostaged" to walk.
"Today's thing. Xia Ming coughed, "Don't tell others." ”
Of course, Mu Linlin knew who the "others" he was talking about, but she just let out a meaningful "oh".
At this time, a figure moved under the corner of the two-meter-high wall, and the first thing that emerged from the darkness was a pair of ice-blue pupils, this time his beautiful golden hair was finally combed and opened, but how awkward it looked, this person had to be sloppy to have a taste.
The student council president, Qishan Pu Lei, dressed in an inky gown with a bunch of roses in his hand, walked up to them very gentlemanly, and he looked into Mu Linlin's eyes with a faint smile on his lips.
Rival!!!
Xia Ming was shocked, could it be that this person was the mastermind behind the scenes, seeing them walking together, he finally couldn't help but make a move!
Lin An and Yu Sheng's jaws trembled, "How can the old boss be here!
Qi Shan suddenly grabbed Xia Ming's hand and put the string of roses in the palm of his hand. "Beautiful ...... Forehead...... Please make friends with me!"
He glared at Mu Linlin fiercely, if you dare to rob me, I will fight with you.
He took Xia Ming's hand and left under the stunned gazes of Mu Linlin and the others. Mu Linlin stomped her foot hard, this damn man!
"Old ...... Top dog. Xia Ming's heart is beating fast now, like a "deer" crashing.
"Huh?" Qi Shan glanced at him and said, "Long time no see, Sanan and his party, I haven't thanked you yet." ”
Xia Ming breathed a sigh of relief, this tone didn't look like someone who was coming to take his life.
When they reached a fork in the road, they swished against the wall and looked out of the corner of the building with trepidation.
"I think this will definitely make their 'public intelligence headlines' tomorrow," Qi Shan said, "even if all the students will be evacuated from the academy tomorrow." ”
"Then why do you want to ...... And you roses, you shouldn't have given them to me. ”
"There's an old fox in the student union, and I don't want to see you fall for the old fox, which makes the old cow eat the grass. ”
Xia Ming said: "But isn't it difficult for you to do this?"
"Eh~ almost!" Qi Shan grabbed his combed hair, "I know their intentions, but there is also a possibility, but as a first-year you, you can't threaten anyone, can you understand what I mean?" means that you are too vegetable, even if the girl you like holds your hand, people will not take you to heart." ”
"Damn, I know I know, what do you do when you say it!" Xia Ming almost jumped.
"Since you know about their plans, it seems that you kid is also ......"
"If you don't use this method, what else can you do? ”
"Actually, you can think about it the other way around. Qi Shan got up from leaning against the wall and walked towards the intersection in front of him.
Xia Ming followed up and said, "What do you think the other way around?"
Qi Shan was actually just talking casually, he thought for a while and said, "Actually, that person saved that old fox probably because of you." ”
"Me?" Xia Ming's eyes widened, "How is it possible, they are here for me, I was protected by many experts at the time, and the security level is better than that of the currency depository." ”
"Oh, yes, maybe?"
Qi Shan scratched his head and said perfunctorily.
"Speaking of which, you're looking for me to talk about this. Xia Ming asked with some suspicion.
"Of course not, first of all, I want to thank you, after all, there are some things that can't be saved until tomorrow. Also, there is someone to thank you, but it's a little inappropriate for you to walk with the old fox. ”
Xia Ming had a bad feeling when he heard it, but he didn't think of what this feeling came from, he said, "Is it? Who else wants to thank me? I never do good deeds......
"Sanam, I entrusted you with the care of my two sisters, you helped them find enough expedition chests to fill a chest, and they want to thank you for calling you out. ”
"What?" Xia Ming exclaimed, "How is it possible, how can I have so much money?" He knew that the kind of expedition treasure chest, which was very large, with a square box curved lid (which did not conform to the structure of the current chest), could be found in a cave or at the bottom of a lake, and when "pie fell from the sky", it was called an expedition treasure chest, because most of these things happened in inaccessible or extremely dangerous areas.
"Have you forgotten that bag of gold coins? ”
"How can it be so little?" Xia Ming said, "I remember that in addition to the twelve gold coins, there are twenty-four Lu coins!"
"This ...... In short, that's what it looks like!" Qi Shan suddenly said loudly, "Two heroes, people have been brought." ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... Wait a minute. ”
"Handsome Mr. Ming Herrick, please be friends with us!" The two sisters, Lin and Yao, walked up to Xia Ming and respectfully presented a rose.
"This ...... I, this ......" Xia Ming tugged at Qi Shan's clothes and asked carefully, "What's the matter?"
"Ha, I've just brought that to you. Qi Shan laughed, then patted Xia Ming's shoulder and whispered to him, "Brother, take care, take care!"
Qi Shan ran away, this unrighteous elder.
"Two ...... Two little sisters, senior sisters......"
After mixing for so long, Xia Ming also knew the "identity background" of these two chicks, and Lin An told him. Before the accidental acquisition of the Snow Falcon Intelligence Department, they also mentioned in the letter that "life is going well", yes, as long as the pen in the hands of these two people is lightly hooked, it can determine whether they can "mix" the days in the following days.
I haven't seen her fight between the two, but I heard that in the temporary execution team last time, those who could be called "executors" were beaten and lay down in the infirmary.
Xia Ming was respectful, and he heard that they had some problems with their heads, so they didn't dare to act rashly.
"Please, you must keep our flowers, which we have stolen with great difficulty from Mrs. Max's garden. ”
Is this really the case, are all their flowers stolen? But this big truth made Xia Ming feel a chill down his spine and his eyelids jumped.
Lin and Yao didn't dress up like last time to look like they were in the limelight, they were also wearing black women's dresses, and the slim dresses made them look thin and slender.
With ice-blue pupils like Qi Shan's glittering tears, they may have remembered someone very important again.
Xia Ming was afraid that they would really cry, so he hurriedly accepted their flowers, Xia Ming patted the head of Lin or Yao, who didn't know if it was Lin or Yao, and said, "It's okay to be moved, but don't be too moved, if you feel unhappy, you can go back to Qi Shan to vent your anger." ”
Then he hurried away, what was it called? He received three roses, two of them from two men, one of which was given by two girls together. When he received the roses, Xia Ming's eyelids began to jump, as if he was indicating something.
Suddenly, Xia Ming, who was pierced by the mirror reflection of his glasses, couldn't open his eyes, what was going on?
"Academy Xia Ming!"
"Mai...... Professor Max!"
"It turns out that the flowers I planted were cut by you, come with me!"
“......”
Hanging Gardens. Few people know that there is a hanging garden at the top of the center of the new greenhouse house. Tucked away behind a high-class building, it is the Promethean Retreat, which is usually not allowed to be accessed at will.
Under his feet was a huge piece of glass, and Xia Ming couldn't believe that he was standing on the second floor, seven or eight meters in the air. Not only was the thing called the floor beneath his feet made of a single piece of glass, but he found that, along with the staircase and the closed wall, they were all joints without gaps, like a work of art made of ice. But in the end, he still has a little backbone, and he is not so frightened that his legs are weak and he can't take a step.
As far as the eye could see, there were clusters of red, and a dozen tungsten lamps emitted a slightly unstable light.
"Just help me look at them, don't touch the flower, which has been cultivated with special moisture, and its spines carry trace amounts of anesthetic toxins. Professor Max said to him.
Xia Ming nodded, anesthesia and toxin are different, anesthetic toxin can not only anesthetize some nerves but also kill people, sure enough, the more dangerous things are, the more beautiful they look.
"I didn't do it. He pointed to the flowers in his pocket, the thorns on their branches had been removed.
"I know you didn't do it, so I asked you to help me guard this garden. It's true, it happens at this time of year. She nagged and left.
Professor Max's understanding is simple, if it was Xia Ming who stole the flowers, he should be treated in the hospital now.
Somehow became a garden caretaker? This development is really a bit strange.
Xia Ming simply wandered around the garden, and there were other strange plants, such as leaves covered with sharp "teeth" that opened like mouths, such as long spherical thorns, and funnel-shaped flowers that clinged to the barbed wire and emitted a faint fragrance under the moon......
Xia Ming followed Professor Max's words, no matter what kind of flowers he didn't touch, these flowers cultivated in the greenhouse room, especially the flowers cultivated by the Hunter Academy and especially Professor Max, would appear in some unconventional states.
When he walked to the last light, Xia Ming suddenly stopped, this is also the end of this place, but what really stopped him was the plant with a straight flower path, two simple green leaves supported on the waist, and a dense circle of thin claw-like blood-red petals around the pale yellow flower disk.
This is the Flower of Death, which is not supposed to exist in the novel, and it is rumored that it grows from the heads of some of the dead, and is grown from the puppet seeds of the Charlatans, and these deceased people with the Flower of Death will obey the instructions of the one who sowed the seed.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Xia Ming thought that Professor Max was back, and when he looked back, his jaw almost fell to the ground.
I saw a man in a black cloak walking happily through the aisle between two vertical space planting shelves, holding a large cluster of brilliant red !!
This......
The man stopped suddenly, the eyes hidden in the cloak and hat seemed to glow with surprise, and Xia Ming also seemed to be able to see the eyes hidden in the darkness, "You ......" As soon as he raised his hand, the man ran away directly.
"Stop!" Xia Ming didn't know where he got the courage, so he chased him out directly.
This was the end of the day, and Professor Max told him to guard the garden so that some "unscrupulous people" would come in and steal things, and this guy was a good one, carefully picking and cutting a dozen branches while he didn't see it, and then left happily humming a little song.
How can he explain this!
"Stop!"
Xia Ming chased after him, only to see that the man jumped directly from the edge of the sky garden seven or eight meters high, and continued to run forward after turning over on the top floor of a neighboring building three meters away. Xia Ming rushed over, and when he was about to run to the edge, he hesitated to stop, he returned to the house to get more space to run, he accelerated out, and jumped onto the opposite building before the figure of the man was about to disappear.
/ Novel effect, don't imitate!/
This is too hard, Xia Ming thought to himself, isn't it just stealing a flower.
When he landed, he also took advantage of the momentum to roll around, and continued to chase after dissipating part of the impact.
