Chapter 22: The Eve of Departure
Everyone slept from the beginning of the morning to the sunset. Shangyuan was the first to wake up. He stretched, feeling indescribably comfortable.
He looked around, everyone was still sleeping, only the senior Jin Toad was not there. He didn't bother everyone, quietly got up and went to the lake.
From a distance, he saw a familiar figure on the stone by the lake, and when he looked over, it was indeed the predecessor of Jin Toad.
He walked over happily and saw that the senior Jin Toad was looking at the sky in a daze, he was embarrassed to go over and disturb, so he picked up a clean place by the lake and sat down. Looking at the golden toad from afar.
Today's weather is good, with a crooked crescent moon hanging in the sky. Occasionally, a few clouds drifted by, stealthily obscuring the moon.
The stars twinkle and twinkle, hiding behind the clouds, as if they were trying to hide and seek with someone.
After a while, Shangyuan's attention was drawn to the beautiful night sky.
In fact, far away, Jin Toad heard Shangyuan's footsteps. Unlike the heaviness of elephants, the lightness of earthworms, the clatter of the snake king, and the fluttering of doves flying over their wings.
But Jin Toad didn't say hello to Shang Yuan, because this beautiful moonlight couldn't be broken by this voice.
He noticed that Shang Yuan had been staring at him at first, but after a while, sure enough, this kid was also attracted by this beautiful moonlight.
Alas...... It's such a beautiful moon, I don't know if I'll have a chance to see it in the future.
Just as Jin Chan and Shangyuan were admiring the moon by the river, everyone woke up one after another.
The heavy duty of waking up was all attracted by this beautiful scenery and came to the lake one after another. This is the most pleasant moment after everyone decides to go to the Thorn Forest.
The breeze, the bright moon, the lake, and the mountains, it would be more perfect if there was a beautiful woman.
By the time the elephant approached with heavy steps, the crowd could no longer pay attention to the beautiful moonlight.
Because the sound of the elephant was so loud that the birds in the mountains and forests flew up.
The elephant was the last to wake up, and when he opened his eyes and saw that there was no one around, he thought he had been poisoned.
So he quickly got up and searched around, and he saw people in the distance. It's a beautiful picture.
A large snake coiled around the lake, and a dove perched above his head. To the left of the serpent sat a man with an earthworm standing on his shoulder. The serpent has a boulder, and a golden toad is perched on the boulder.
The cold moonlight sprinkled on everyone's body, plating everyone with a layer of gold. Everyone stared at the sky in a daze, and the picture seemed to be frozen.
The elephants couldn't help but be captivated by the stunning scenery and couldn't wait to join them. So he ran all the way, trying to become a scene in this scenery as soon as possible.
But when he came to the crowd, he saw that they were all looking at him with angry faces. He was a little overwhelmed.
He shrank in the direction of the golden toad, looked at everyone, and asked timidly: "What's wrong with you, continue to admire the moon, what do you want me to do?"
The crowd has scolded the elephant a thousand times in their hearts: "It's not you who disturb this beautiful scenery." But the crowd didn't blame the elephant, after all, the elephant itself didn't know how loud its feet were, just as we never thought we were talking loudly.
Maybe the elephant came quietly, but because of its huge body, the gentle voice of the elephant sounded like thunder to others.
Seeing that everyone withdrew their gaze from the night sky and looked at the elephant in unison, Jin Toad's predecessor was also helpless. The gap between this species is too big, and I can't help it.
However, Jin Toad's predecessors are old-timers in the end. He hurriedly played a round and said, "Elephant, we are all waiting for you by this lake, we have already woken up, and we have seen that you are sleeping soundly, so we have not called you." Now that you're awake, let's get down to business."
The elephant breathed a sigh of relief and thought, "It wasn't me who ruined everyone's interest, but it's okay." ”
After Jin Toad's reminder, everyone also woke up. Yes, time is pressing, but we are still here to admire the moon, and now is the time to get down to business.
Thinking of this, everyone hurriedly gathered together.
Because it was a senior, Jin Toad was the first to speak: "We have been trained to recognize poisonous weeds, and we have almost mastered all kinds of poisonous weeds. ”
"If you go to the Thorn Forest now, I believe everyone can be on their own. Let's talk about the next trip."
Saying that, he looked at the Snake King and asked, "Snake King, what is your opinion?"
Seeing that he was often asking for advice from himself, the snake king did not hold it. Immediately said: "Because we went to the Thorn Forest this time, it was completely according to everyone's ability to choose personnel, each of us is responsible for the part we are most familiar with and does not need to adapt and train, so I think it is better to start as soon as possible."
"Well, yes, I think so too, the more it drags on, I'm afraid it will wear down everyone's fighting spirit, I think, it's better for us to leave tomorrow morning, everyone see how it is"?
"I have no opinion, Shangyuan is the first to express his position." Then everyone also said that they had no opinion and listened to their predecessors.
"Okay, since everyone has no opinion, then we will leave tomorrow morning, everyone will go back tonight to prepare, and gather here tomorrow morning."
"Let's go to the Thorn Forest".
