Chapter 28 Passers-by
The strange forest, periphery.
During the day, Xin'er hurried on without saying a word, not sad or sad, but every evening and sunset, Xin'er would sit under a tree, gnawing dry food, and letting tears run down her cheeks, soaking the dry food.
After swallowing it in one mouthful, until night fell, Xin'er's eyebrows flashed with a milky white halo, prompting Xin'er to fall into a deep sleep and then wrapped Xin'er in the halo to protect her from the attacks of spiritual beasts. Days repeated like this
It lasted for three days, and Xin'er gave her strength to the light and her fragility to the darkness.
Running all the way, I came to a plain without realizing it. I encountered many low-level spirit beasts along the way, and they were all killed by Xin'er mercilessly. Although the spirit beasts died, they took away Xin'er's warmth and compassion. The cold ground was cold.
The corpse seemed to be telling a sad story to passers-by.
Suddenly, three figures appeared in front of Xin'er's eyes. Xin'er, who finally saw the same kind of people, couldn't help but feel a little excited. The desire for a group made Xin'er want to walk in the direction of someone, but her self-protection mechanism made Xin'er want to hide.
.However, there was no hiding place in such an open grassland. Xin'er was at a loss for a moment and stood there motionless.
The three people walking towards them naturally saw Xin'er appearing in the plain. The leader could not help but become alert when he saw such a breathtakingly beautiful girl suddenly appearing, and motioned to the other two to slow down. At this time, the person next to him suddenly appeared.
A short man with a vulgar expression said to the leader: "Hey, Lin Chuan, have you seen the little beauty in front of you? Go over and catch her quickly. I haven't tasted such tender and exquisite goods for a long time.
.”
Lin Chuan looked at the man with contempt and said: "Shen Jiazheng, have your head been bitten by sperm? If a girl with such a top-notch appearance appears out of thin air in such a ghost place, there must be some deceit in it. Do you dare to do anything wrong?"
If you think about it, you will definitely die miserably. Hurry up and put away your evil thoughts. Maybe he is older than the three of us combined."
Shen Jiazheng still refused to give up and said to the man next to him wearing a black robe with scars on his face: "Young Master Cai, how about we find an opportunity to get rid of this girl and give you a new collection?
Just lend it to me from time to time."
Mr. Cai said coldly: "I'm not as stupid as you."
Seeing that both of them were so timid, Shen Jiazheng stopped talking, but his eyes were still staring at Xin'er like a wolf in heat.
The three of them came to Xin'er, and Lin Chuan said to Xin'er: "Girl, may I ask why you are here alone? Are you accompanied by relatives and friends?"
Talking to a stranger alone for the first time, Xin'er looked a little nervous. She clutched her clothes and said, "I, I'm lost. Can you take me home?"
Seeing Xin'er looking so fragile, Shen Jiazheng's lower body was about to burst into flames. He looked directly at Xin'er with a pair of lustful eyes, which made Xin'er very uncomfortable. Lin Chuan looked at Xin'er carefully.
Realizing that he could not see through Xin'er's cultivation, Lin Chuan became even more cautious and said, "May I ask where the lady lives?"
When she first entered the world, Xin'er didn't forget Wuming's teaching - when she was away from home, she only spoke a few words to everyone she met. Although she was still a little nervous, Xin'er still said: "I live in Luohua City."
Lin Chuan said somewhat differently: "That's a coincidence. We just took a mission from Luohua City a few days ago. If the girl doesn't mind, you can come with us. We can go back together after completing the mission."
Finally getting rid of the situation of being alone and having someone to accompany her, Xin'er was a little excited in her heart. But she still said calmly: "Then I'll help some uncles."
Lin Chuan waved his hand and said: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it. The so-called meeting is fate. It seems that we are destined for each other. My name is Lin Chuan, a 39th-level earth attribute magician. This dwarf's name is Shen Jiazheng, a third-level warrior, wearing a black robe.
My name is Cai Jianyu, a level 38 ice magician. You can call us whatever you want. May I ask the girl what her name is?"
The mutated properties of ice and water are less flexible and more solid, just like Mr. Cai himself, less enthusiastic and more indifferent.
Xin'er said to the three of them: "My name is Tian Xin'er. Just call me Xin'er. Please give me some advice."
Lin Chuan narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his eyebrows and said, "Please give me more advice, Miss Xin'er."
Shen Jiazheng couldn't help but stepped forward, greedily breathed the air around Xin'er, rubbed against Xin'er vaguely, and said: "Xin'er, you are so beautiful, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, you
How old is it? What spices did you use? Why does it smell so fragrant?"
Xin'er was a little uncomfortable with this kind of special approach, and just said lightly: "Senior Shen Jiazheng, you are so enthusiastic."
Shen Jiazheng was about to say something more, but Lin Chuan tugged his sleeve. Seeing Lin Chuan shaking his head at him, Shen Jiazheng had no choice but to give up, clasped his fists at Xin'er and said, "Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously, I was a bit presumptuous just now, please Xin'er."
My dear, please forgive me."
Xin'er just nodded and asked Lin Chuan: "Senior Lin Chuan, what mission are you taking?"
"Hunt the fourth-level two-level tiger to obtain its spiritual core. This is a tiger with fire and earth attributes. It looks ferocious, fights bravely, and is extremely difficult to deal with. But it is said that the two-level tiger is full of treasures and its skin can be made.
Armor, flesh can strengthen the body, bones can cast tools, and blood can mold the body. Unfortunately, the dual-attribute tiger is extremely cunning. Once it feels that it is certain to die, it will ignite itself and self-destruct. Only one spiritual core is left, but even if there is only one dual-attribute spirit
Cores are also very precious." Lin Chuan explained
Xin'er thought for a while and said: "I have the spiritual core of the fourth-order binary tiger."
The three of them stopped and looked at Xin'er with surprise. They saw Xin'er take out a red and yellow spiritual core from her arms, which was the fourth-order binary tiger spiritual core!
The red and yellow light shone on the surprised faces of the three people. Behind this surprise, there was also a hint of greed.
Lin Chuan was the first to come to his senses, took a deep breath and said, "May I ask Miss Xin'er where her spiritual core came from?"
Xin'er didn't want to reveal too much, so she just said casually: "I picked it up on the road."
This reason was obviously unconvincing, but Lin Chuan still said respectfully: "Miss Xin'er is so lucky."
Xin'er said: "This spiritual core will be given to you. Now you should be able to set off back to Luohua City. After all, it is still risky to kill the fourth-order binary tiger with the strength of the three of you."
"What Miss Xin'er said is absolutely true. In this case, let's return." After saying that, Lin Chuan planned to reach out for the spirit core.
Xin'er put the spirit core away and said, "Let me help you put this spirit core away first, and I will give it to you when we get to Luohua City."
Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Then Miss Lao Xiner will help save it."
The four of them started their return journey. Along the way, the three of them were very respectful to Xin'er. Even Shen Jiazheng did not dare to do anything inappropriate. The four of them remained silent and walked forward with their heads bowed. This made the twelve-year-old
The 19-year-old Xiner is somewhat uncomfortable with it. On the one hand, she hopes that her generosity will be exchanged for frank enthusiasm rather than cautious awe. On the other hand, she does not want to expose too much and let others see her weak side. She longs for it.
Communicate, but are unwilling to take the initiative to speak; long to talk, but are unwilling to reveal their true feelings; long for recognition, but dare not express themselves. All kinds of contradictions are intertwined, and all kinds of desires cannot be satisfied, making Xin'er more and more unwilling to tell the truth, and the more she wants to hide herself
, it becomes more and more annoying to me, but there is nothing I can do about it.
Of course, the three of them didn't know Xin'er's conflicting mood. They just felt that the seemingly young girl in front of them might not be easy to mess with, and the power behind her might not be simple. After thinking about it, Lin Chuansi could not remember which wealthy family in Luohua City had a daughter.
He had such an amazing daughter. While thinking, Lin Chuan was calculating the possibility of killing and stealing goods and various pros and cons. After all, once the seeds of greed are planted, if there is no restraint by authority, they will be nourished by desire.
It spreads infinitely in the heart, and once the heart cannot bear it, it will pop up and swallow up the source of greed.
Fortunately, the seeds of greed have not spread yet. The three of them are still a little unsure about Xin'er and have not dared to do anything unusual. The four of them headed towards Luohua City and came to a jungle again, with Xin'er following closely.
, the four of them were silent, and only the eyes of Lin Chuan and the three of them communicated.
Until dusk and sunset, the red glow slanted through the dense branches into the jungle, forming pillars of light that supported the jungle and printed mottled tree shadows on the ground. Lin Chuan stopped and said: "Today we are here
Let's rest now and continue our journey tomorrow. Shen Jiazheng is setting up the tent. Cai Shaohuo is relying on you. I'll go find some food."
Xin'er asked, "Well, what should I do?" Lin Chuan said, "Miss Xin'er, just wait here. Don't get lost again."
Xin'er had no choice but to look around and find a place to sit, wondering what she was thinking.
The three of them are indeed veterans of outdoor life. In a short time, four tents, a pile of bonfires, and a pot of stew were ready. In the wild, simplicity and practicality are the only rules. Four simple tents, a pile of warm bonfires,
A pot of stew is enough to drive away the fatigue of a day's running. You can spend the dark night with peace of mind and welcome the new day with better energy.
Lin Chuan waved to Xin'er to sit down by the fire, handed a bowl of random stew to Xin'er and said: "You can't make anything good in the wild. If Miss Xin'er doesn't dislike it, try it and it will fill your stomach tomorrow."
Only then can I have the strength to go on my way."
Xin'er took the bowl and said thank you, then picked up the chopsticks and tasted it. Although it was not as delicious as Wuming's, it was still hot and made by hand. Xin'er had eaten all Wumingliu these days.
I have long been tired of eating the dry food. Now eating food cooked by another person makes Xin'er feel somewhat comfortable.
