Chapter 46 Chapter 46 Chapter 46 (Updated)...

Cheng Yunshao certainly had his reasons.

"My thinking was correct. Look, now they're not against you joining the team."

After discovering that Wen Hu saved Lu Qiujin, Luo Shizhen really looked at him with admiration.

He thanked them sincerely: "Thank you."

Wen Hu opened his mouth to speak, but Cheng Yunshao smiled and said:

"You're welcome. We're all classmates, and it's only natural for us to help each other."

Lu Qiujin: “…”

Qin Yinian: "..."

Only Luo Shi really believed this, but as long as he believed it, it would be fine.

Cheng Yunshao did not directly say that he wanted to join Luo Shizhen and his team. Instead, he looked at the ground with a serious expression. It was pitch black and he could not see anything.

"It looks like this is the lair of that weird creature. The giant python just now was at least a level three weird creature. After all, we're not guardians yet. If we go down alone, we probably won't be able to defeat it. We all have the same goal, so why don't we cooperate for now and go down together to explore?"

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Luo Shizhen was the first to think that it made sense. Even Lu Qiujin and Qin Yinian nodded after considering it.

Let’s not talk about what happens normally. The enemy is right in front of them, and the two of them are not stupid. They still want to come up with a scenario of dying alone at this time.

Wen Hu was about to speak, but Cheng Yunshao stopped him.

Now that he had finally joined Luo Shizhen's team, he instantly felt relieved.

Cheng Yunshao is still quite capable.

Wen Hu was clearly in human form, but he seemed to be swinging a non-existent thick tail and went to Luo Shizhen to show his courtesy.

"Shi Zhen, don't go down yet. I'll go down and explore first. I'm tough in my beast form. Even if I'm attacked, I won't die for a while."

Luo Shizhen was confused: "But weren't you attacked by a poisonous insect just now? And you have no way to deal with it?"

Wen Hu: “…”

Luo Shi was really embarrassed and said, "Besides, we don't plan to go down first. Lu Qiujin will first give birth to a vine and go down."

Wen Hu: “…”

This time it seemed that he was being a bit too reckless in his intention to go down in person and show Luo Shizhen his majestic tiger form.

He did not get discouraged, but instead turned to verbal praise: "This is a great idea, was it you who came up with it, Shi Zhen?"

Luo Shizhen gently pulled Lu Qiujin aside and said, "No, it was Lu Qiujin who came up with it. He's very smart, isn't he?"

Wen Hu: “…”

Lu Qiujin glanced at Wen Hu and really appreciated Luo Shizhen's compliment.

When Luo Shizhen praises others, he always does so directly and seriously, using straightforward words, but his tone and eyes show sincerity.

Lu Qiujin had never encountered such a way of praising people before. Now, every time she was praised, she didn't show it on her face, but she felt very comfortable in her heart.

"Shi Zhen, please stand aside. I'll check it out now."

He had just used up a lot of Qi in the battle and had not yet fully recovered. He held a vine seed in his hand and began to focus on nurturing it.

The effort required to grow a seed and attach one's Qi to it is more than that required to lengthen a tree. In particular, the length of the vine depends on the depth of the pit.

Long vines with bright green leaves seemed to come alive as they wound their way down to the bottom of the pit.

Time passed minute by minute, Lu Qiujin's expression remained unchanged, but beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Seeing this, Wen Hu felt that the opportunity had come.

This is clearly a sign that Lu Qiujin's ability is about to be exhausted. Being exhausted means that Lu Qiujin does not have enough energy left, which means that Lu Qiujin is not strong enough!

"Shi Zhen, you see he's dying, why don't you just let me go?"

Cheng Yunshao held his forehead in his hand, thinking that when the atavistic awakened people had no brains, it would be impossible to save them.

Sure enough, Luo Shizhen not only did not think that Lu Qiujin was too incompetent, but he carefully took out a tissue and gently wiped his sweat.

"Lu Qiujin, how are you? Are you okay? Do you want to stop and rest for a while?"

Lu Qiujin's face turned pale, but she felt that Luo Shi was really taking good care of her, so she said, "No problem, we're almost there."

Luo Shizhen took out another water bottle: "Would you like some water?"

Lu Qiujin: "Yes, thank you."

So, Luo Shizhen took the water bottle and carefully fed Lu Qiujin a few sips of water.

Wen Hu: “…”

Qin Yinian chuckled at the side: "Wen Hu, if you don't know how to speak, you can just shut up."

Wen Hu: “…”

He turned around to look at Cheng Yunshao.

Cheng Yunshao mouthed: Be friendly.

It goes without saying who you are friendly to.

Wen Hu was very reluctant.

But thinking about how he had just saved Lu Qiujin, Luo Shizhen really agreed to let him join the team, and felt that it was not impossible.

What's wrong with trying to please your rival a little in order to win his mate?

Wen Hu didn't bring any tissues, but he did bring a piece of beef jerky snack, which he stuffed into Lu Qiujin's mouth:

"Lu Qiujin, you're almost exhausted. Eat some beef jerky to replenish your energy."

"Come, I'll feed you."

Lu Qiujin: “…”

Qin Yinian almost died of laughter:

"Yeah, Lu Qiujin, don't use up all your energy before the fight even starts. I have some bananas here, would you like one?"

Lu Qiujin couldn't bear it any longer, so she increased her speed and let the vines touch the bottom:

"We've hit the bottom. There is indeed a basement at the bottom, about seventy meters."

"My vines can only detect a radius of five meters around me. There's no danger within five meters. Should I go down?"

He asked this question to Luo Shizhen, and his tone was very gentle, just like every husband who listens to his wife.

Luo Shizhen was surprised: "Let me decide?"

From childhood to adulthood, those of his age who were entrusted with decision-making responsibilities were all good at studying and had more extroverted personalities.

It was the first time that Luo Shizhen had received such an honor, and he subconsciously became nervous.

"Of course it's you, Shitou." Qin Yinian said from the side: "You are a Purifier. No matter which team you are placed in, you should be the center."

Luo Shizhen was nervous, a little uneasy, and a little excited.

He thought about it seriously and said, "This is the first time I've encountered such a situation. I can't make a decision. How about we all vote?"

Those who agree to go stand on the left, and those who disagree stand on the right.

Everyone stood on the left.

For the young awakeners who can't wait to fight eighty battles a day, once they find the enemy, they will go up and kill him even if their legs are broken.

Lu Qiujin and Cheng Yunshao stood on the left, not only for this reason, but also because they knew that this mission was to fight and capture this monster. If they didn't get rid of it, the mission would never be completed.

If they can't handle it, the teacher who is responsible for protection behind the scenes will definitely come.

Before going down, several people arranged their positions.

Luo Shizhen was unanimously agreed upon by everyone to be placed in the middle position.

In this way, when encountering an attack in front, Wenhu can transform into a beast and act as a meat shield to block damage for teammates behind.

When they encountered danger later, Qin Yinian used fire to block the danger.

Lu Qiujin had just spent a lot of energy releasing the vines and was temporarily placed in the second to last position.

Cheng Yunshao is in the second position from the positive number. When Wen Hu acts as a meat shield, his puppetry can attack.

Luo Shizhen is in the middle. Once he notices the pollution, he can take action in time no matter whether his teammates are in front or behind.

Cheng Yunshao asked Luo Shizhen: "Have you learned how to purify the pollution of the attack now?"

This is also one of the reasons why purifiers can play a big role in battle. Some purifiers can not only help teammates purify pollution, but also take the initiative to purify when they sense that polluted Qi is approaching teammates.

Luo Shizhen shook his head honestly: "This is my first time participating in a battle, and I don't know if I can do it."

He was a little nervous: "How about not putting me in the middle? I've never tried it before. What if I can't achieve this kind of purification? Wouldn't that be a bummer for you guys?"

Cheng Yunshao laughed and said, "What a pitfall! Advancing to the Purifier level is difficult to begin with. It's all learned bit by bit in battle. It's because you haven't learned it yet that you should step in and learn slowly now."

"Don't worry about it. Even if you don't succeed this time, you might be able to gain something when you review it after you return. Just treat us as guinea pigs. We have thick skin, so even if we get a little contaminated, it won't be a big deal."

Luo Shizhen smelled the familiar scent of a top student on Cheng Yunshao.

The look he gave Cheng Yunshao suddenly became much more intimate than before.

"Thank you. I will do my best."

He looked serious and pursed his lips slightly, like a good student who listened to his teacher.

Cheng Yunshao was just talking about tactics out of habit, but he didn't expect Luo Shizhen to be actually willing to listen. He even acted as if he took his words as the truth, and his expression unconsciously softened.

He didn't expect Luo Shizhen's attitude to be so rigorous and serious.

I originally thought that as a purifier, Luo Shizhen would be able to become the center of the team without much effort, at least it shouldn't be like this now.

Luo Shizhen and Cheng Yunshao had different ideas from before. How to put it, it was a bit... clumsy?

Cheng Yunshao had seen stupid people before, but his impression of them was that they were stupid but unaware of it, and they kept making the same mistakes over and over, which made people feel anxious.

But Luo Shi is really different. He seems to know that he is stupid, so he will be more cautious when doing things. Like a sponge, he absorbs as much knowledge as possible. He will not boast about what he can't do, but will lower his head embarrassedly and say "Sorry, I can't do it."

Although stupid, he is not annoying.

On the contrary, his clumsy and hard-working sincerity made him look rather endearing.

Cheng Yunshao did not feel that he was slapped in the face. He knew very well that in one's life, one will always encounter all kinds of things and all kinds of people, and the views between people will also change because of all kinds of things.

Now, his opinion of Luo Shizhen has simply changed in a very reasonable and natural way.

When you are taken seriously, most people can't help but have some good feelings towards the other person, right?

Cheng Yunshao was also an ordinary person and could not avoid this kind of mentality, so he felt at ease and walked forward while holding Luo Shizhen's hand behind him.

Wen Hu looked back and saw this scene, and immediately frowned: "What are you doing pulling Shi Zhen's hand?"

Cheng Yunshao felt that he had nothing to hide, so he answered with confidence and also warned others:

"There's a lot of underground gangs out there, so everyone should keep in touch and don't get separated."

Wen Hu still felt something was wrong: "I was ahead of you, why didn't you pull me over?"

Cheng Yunshao: "Okay, I'm here to pull it."

Wen Hu immediately retracted his hand: "Forget it, forget it. It's disgusting just thinking about it."

He is not used to being touched by anyone except Shi Zhen.

Luo Shizhen had already reached his other hand behind him.

"Lu Qiujin, hold me."

Lu Qiujin gently held Luo Shizhen's hand and said, "Hold on."

Cheng Yunshao raised his glasses and took out a rope from his waist:

"I just found a rope. Let's hold on to it together."

"No need to hold hands, it's inconvenient."
