Two side missions, Chen Baiqi was stunned for a while and thought to himself.

According to the current situation, Chen Baiqi will undoubtedly choose the latter of the two tasks of "finding Feng Xuan to fight with swords and defeating him to establish his position as the number one favorite around Lord Mengchang" and "safely escorting Mount Peinan out of the tunnel".

.

Let's not talk about whether she knows swordsmanship or not. With her weak hands, even if Feng Xuan is a scumbag in swordsmanship, she may not be able to defeat a tall adult man. What's more, she can't be sure.

Feng Xuan, who carried a broken sword with him everywhere he went, had several kilograms and taels of it in his hands, but it was a pity that he had never used it.

"I choose side task (1)." She opened the next task list to view the details.

Mission name: Reward side mission (1)

Mission description: Side mission (1) - Safely escort Mount Penan out of the tunnel. (Cannot refuse)

Mission reward: Kirin Witch Doctor Robe (blue outfit).

Blue, blue outfit?!

When Chen Baiqi saw that the mission reward was a piece of blue equipment, his eyes immediately turned green.

As expected of a reward-based side mission, this piece of blue equipment was sold at a sky-high price in the "System Mall". Before, she had to think twice before she even wanted to buy green equipment before she could get enough money.

Different from the counselor profession, the price of the witch doctor's professional equipment has jumped ten times that of the counselor and is very rare. It is not something you can buy if you want to buy it. For example, she wants to find one in the "Mall" or "Meritory Mall"

Unfortunately, I have never been able to find the weapons that are suitable for the "Witch Doctor" profession. There are only a few pieces of protective equipment that are occasionally refreshed - shoes and armor, but they are ordinary styles that can be used by all professionals, just like this. After the price

The number of 0s marked is also hard to look at.

So since her rebirth, she has still been wearing the same white military robe and (green) leather hiking boots.

If you can't afford it, it's no use longing for it until your heart aches.

The mission reward has not been received yet, so it is impossible to identify the properties of this equipment, but Chen Baiqi believes it is definitely good.

Chen Baiqi's ears were buzzing from the noise from the people around her. Her vision was like a torch, ready to capture the leader of Mount Penan behind the crowd.

Peinan Mountain is a place of tranquility and tranquility. Although it talks a lot, it is often indifferent to others and does not exaggerate in the lively crowd.

Now that her main mission to Caocheng has been completed, the side mission has been triggered, and this time it is estimated that she does not need to do anything special. She only needs to send these characters to Caocheng one by one, and the mission can be successfully completed.

.

"Chief Peinan, do you have any insights?" Chen Baiqi suddenly asked loudly.

Everyone fell silent, and then they remembered that there was a wise man named Pei Nanshan in the team.

Yuelu's disciples and Feng Chen no longer talked about each other. Instead, they all humbly asked him for advice as if they felt guilty for neglecting him just now.

Mengchangjun always liked to use problems to trouble others. When he saw Chen Baiqi "naughty" throwing it to the head of Peinan Mountain, he smiled and squeezed Chen Baiqi's soft and boneless hand, and gently traced her palm with his fingers.

He was teasing and trying to persuade both sides, but he also looked like he was waiting for the news.

This tunnel is narrow. At most, two people can stand side by side without crowding. It is less than two meters wide. The chief of Peinan Mountain is behind Mengchangjun and others, about ten meters away. Looking over his shoulder, there are seven of Mengchangjun's personal guards blocking the middle.

Eight people.

Chief Peinan was protected by Wei Xi and Zhang Yi. Among them, Mo Jing came and went in a hurry. He only stayed with Chief Peinan for about a day and then left, so he was not in the team this time.

Chen Baiqi could probably guess where Mo Jing suddenly left. He probably went to pick up the rescue team. She had asked Xiaobai to monitor the Yuelu convoy, so she knew some of their plans.

The secret passage is very dark, long and terrifying. There are two or three in the team holding torches. Half of Peinan Mountain is shadowed and half is painted with gold. The body is as long as jade, with the head lowered. The shoulders and body seem to be covered with the coolness and cold birds of the tunnel. The whole person is alone.

Pretty and rugged.

His state is a bit strange...

Wei Xi glared at Chen Baiqi with cold eyes, and Zhang Yi also had a very forbearing expression.

Chen Baiqi frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the faint voice of Peinan Mountain Chief, like clear snow water flowing through a clear pool: "Since the time to smuggle people out of Caocheng was tight, I'm afraid there won't be much time.

Set up a trap, but the terrain may be complicated."

He speaks the essence as soon as he opens his mouth. He doesn't explain in detail, but only explains the key points.

He slowly stretched out a pale and elegant hand from under his hanging robe, pointing to the ground: "Everyone looks at the ground. The red mud is soft. Not many people have walked on it in these years, so the red mud left behind

The footprints are quite clear, so as long as we follow them, we should probably make no mistakes." Chief Pei Nanshan's voice was very calm, but with a slight breath, and his face, which was hiding from others, was vaguely green.

After hearing the words, the others looked at the ground by the firelight, and they all showed sudden joy, praising the wise guidance of Chief Peinan, but only Chen Baiqi's eyes tightened.

In other words, Lord Mengchang and Feng Chen also noticed something was wrong.

Suddenly, an anxious and nervous voice rang out in the tunnel.

"Shan Zhang, what's wrong with you?!"

Almost in an instant, Chief Peinan, who had just stood up and spoke, fell to the ground in Wei Xi's arms. Wei Xi squatted half on the ground, supporting Chief Peinan with one hand to prevent him from completely falling to the ground, while the other hand was nervously unable to rest.

Zhang Yi also squatted down, her lips pursed into a straight line, serious and cold, and her eyes clenched with indescribable worry.

"Chief, wake up! Chief! Do you hear me? Chief!"

"Chief Shan——"

"What's going on, Chief Shan?"

"Did you get injured when you went into the tunnel just now?"

Yuelu's disciples quickly gathered around, but unfortunately the tunnel was too narrow, so they could only overlap and squeeze into a pile. Those behind could not see the situation, and could only speculate around. It was obvious that their backbone was like this.

He fell to the ground weakly, causing them to panic for a moment.

No way, just when she thought that choosing the side mission (1) to safely escort Peinan Mountain out of the tunnel was not a thrilling thing, he suddenly gave her such a big surprise?!

Chen Baiqi reflexively broke away from Meng Changjun's hand and rushed into the crowd.

Mengchang Jun obviously did not expect that Chen Baiqi would break away from him for an unknown Yuelu Mountain Chief. He was startled for a moment, and after clenching his fists, his expression became so gloomy that it was terrifying.

Feng Xuan didn't care what happened to Peinan, so he soon discovered that Mengchang Jun was not worried. He squinted his eyes, and a trace of cunning and malice slipped through his eyes. He said: "My lord, the chief of Peinan Mountain was just fine.

I thought the sudden attack and falling to the ground could mean... there is someone suspicious in our team? And this Chen Rong, she is very concerned about someone she doesn't know."

Feng Chen's words had some meaning, but he did not directly point out the suspicion of Chen Rong's ulterior motives.

Mengchangjun looked at him and smiled, but his eyes were cold: "Who do you think is suspicious? Chen Rong?"

Feng Xuan's expression paused. Under the gaze of Meng Changjun's dark and deep eyes, a chill ran down his spine. He pretended not to care and said, "If the Lord believes in him, my subordinates will believe in him."

Mengchang Jun withdrew his gaze. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the amber ring on his thumb in circles. He lowered his head slightly, but his gaze went straight past the numerous figures and focused on the male and female young man. His thin eyelashes fell down. Under the shadow, his dark peach blossom eyes became more and more captivating. The smile on his lips was gentle, but there was an overbearing and unfamiliar look that could not be ignored.

Seeing his posture, Feng Chen's eyes trembled, and he was speechless.

Wei Yan has never been able to talk to Meng Changjun and Feng Chen, so most of the time he just stands aside quietly and honestly, only following orders and not interrupting. (Wei Yan: If you want to interrupt, I have to be able to hear you. You only need to understand what the Lord and Mr. Feng are talking about.)

On the other side, Chen Baiqi was anxious. She didn't know whether Commander Pei Nan was injured or poisoned. She pulled away from the crowd, not caring that others were dissatisfied and scolded her for pushing her, and just squeezed in to check.

There were people around, blocking most of the light. Chen Baiqi looked to his left, took a torch from a soldier, and sent the firelight in front of Chief Penan.

Because Chen Baiqi's movements were vigorous and swift, many times she had to finish everything before others could react.

Wei Xi's eyes were dazzled by the sudden light, and he raised his head impatiently and shouted angrily at Chen Baiqi: "What are you doing! Get away!"

Zhang Yi frowned and said dissatisfiedly to Wei Xi: "Speak lower -" He looked at Chen Baiqi again: "This matter has nothing to do with you..."

"What's more important, my matter or the mountain chief's, hurry up and find out what's going on!" Chen Baiqi interrupted with a tight expression on his face.

This was the first time that Zhang Yi and Wei Xi saw her with such a stern attitude. They were stunned for a moment, but both looked ugly. However, they both had to agree with what she said. Now is indeed not the time to argue with her. The most important thing is The most important thing is to see what happened to Shan Chang.

By the light of the fire, Zhang Yi began to check on Captain Peinan, who was shaking and clammy as if he had been fished out of ice water. His condition was very bad.

"Master Zhang, what happened to the mountain leader? Is there any old illness that has returned, or is he poisoned and injured?" Wei Xi also felt that the mountain leader's whole body was as cold as ice.

Zhang Yi knew both torture and simple medical skills. Unfortunately, it was clear that with such a little knowledge, he could not cure the emergency situation of Chief Panan.

His face was covered with sweat. While talking to Chief Penan, he looked at him, but he still couldn't figure out the reason.

There are no wounds, nor is there any relapse of an old illness.

Chen Baiqi held the torch, bent down, and also looked at Pei Nanshan's symptoms.

She observed that he had been sweating coldly, his face was wet, his lips were white, his eyes seemed to have lost focus, but he was forcing himself to stay awake. He was mumbling incomprehensibly, and his expression did not change much, and he was as stiff as a dummy. He was breathing, but his breathing was constantly intertwined, urgent and hasty.

His behavior...seemed like he was scared?

Fear?

What are you afraid of?

Chen Baiqi knew that he was not poisoned, and it didn't look like he was injured. She paused, then casually handed the torch in her hand to someone next to her, and said to Wei Xi and Zhang Yi: "Let me take a look, I know a little bit about medical skills."

After saying that, she sighed in her heart. She finally knew why the system allowed her to take Chief Peinan out of the tunnel "safely". Looking at his appearance now, he was ready to die for her in a minute.

"What did you say——?!" Wei Xi thought he heard wrongly. He held Chief Panan in one hand and raised his head. Bingpo's calm features were tinged with coldness, and his other hand grabbed him like a vicious pliers.

Chen Baiqi's arm: "What are you capable of -"

Chen Baiqi never knew that her senior brother, who had always been calm and self-possessed, would be so impulsive and violent when encountering the mountain leader. She endured the pain and looked back at him calmly: "I can help him, no, I mean, I can try

Please help him, but only if you step back."

There seemed to be a magical power in her eyes, which gradually calmed Wei Xi's inner worry and impatience.

He thought in a daze that he used to like this look very much.
