Bai Qingchen recovered his memories of his past life. A few hundred years had passed, so why had his current Dao companion become so cold?
The boy who used to chase after him, calling him ...
Chapter 16 Cat Earns Points
After walking for a while, Bai Qingchen stopped and observed the surrounding terrain.
This is a relatively open clearing in the woods with only a small stream flowing through it, and the view is good.
"This is too inefficient," he said.
"What should we do then?" Su Yue asked.
"Set a trap to lure the monster over here."
Bai Qingchen squatted down, picked up a branch, and quickly drew the outline of a complex and mysterious formation on the ground.
"We need a bait that can attract the monsters, and then set up a killing formation."
Lin Feng was completely confused.
Su Yue's eyes lit up and she squatted next to Bai Qingchen, as if she had discovered a new world.
"Wow! Brother Bai, your formation is so unique! I've never seen such a combination of formation patterns before. Which school is it from?"
Bai Qingchen paused while drawing and said calmly, "I just figured it out myself, there's no particular school of thought."
His tone was casual, but if those powerful people who had devoted their entire lives to studying formations heard these words, they would probably be so angry that they would vomit three liters of blood.
This was clearly a unique killing array he created in his previous life by combining array theory and spatial perception. He died early before he could pass it down to future generations.
"Did you figure it out yourself?" Su Yue's voice rose eight octaves, and she looked at Bai Qingchen as if he were a god.
"Brother Bai, you are so awesome. Teach me, I want to learn this!" She grabbed Bai Qingchen's arm and started shaking it.
Bai Qingchen was a little helpless after being shaken by her. He pulled back his arm and said, "Set up the formation first. The bait needs the wood element spiritual energy that contains vitality. Su Yue, you come. Lin Feng, be alert and be ready to deal with any fish that slip through the net or any tough ones at any time."
"Okay!" Lin Feng immediately stood on a high place with his sword on his shoulder to keep watch.
Su Yue excitedly followed Bai Qingchen's instructions and injected pure wood spiritual power into the center of the formation.
Bai Qingchen quickly carved array patterns on the ground and the surrounding trees. His movements were smooth and flowing, with an indescribable sense of rhythm.
Su Yue watched intently, trying to remember every detail, her little face full of curiosity.
While setting the trap, the three of them sat by the stream to rest.
Lin Feng was chewing on some dry food when he suddenly remembered something and said to Bai Qingchen, "Brother Bai, come to think of it, that little fox that followed you before, Shiliang, was so chubby and furry, so cute. Now that it's gone home, are you willing to let it go?"
Bai Qingchen was staring at the stream in a daze, and his eyes softened for a moment when he heard this.
She whispered, "It would be better for him to go home than to stay with me." There was a subtle worry in her tone.
When Su Yue heard the word "Maorongrong", she also became interested.
"Little fox? Is it cute? I once had a very clever little white cat! But unfortunately..."
Her face fell and her voice dropped. "It ran away on its own. We searched for it for a long time but couldn't find it."
She didn't notice that Bai Qingchen's body next to her stiffened slightly, and he lowered his head silently to drink some water.
Lost original body Bai Qingchen: "..."
Lin Feng comforted him carelessly, "When there's a chance in the future, I'll find you a cuter one!"
Su Yue didn't respond, and was still a little depressed.
She stood up and said, "I'm going to the stream to wash up." Then she walked upstream.
Lin Feng finished his rations, patted his butt and stood up: "I'll go wash up too, my face is covered in dust."
Without giving it a second thought, he walked towards Su Yue's direction.
Just as Bai Qingchen was about to speak up to stop her, he heard Su Yue's scream of shame and anger coming from upstream of the stream: "Ah!!!"
Then, "Plop!" and "Ouch!" were heard.
Lin Feng, covered in dust, was thrown out by some vines with tender leaves that suddenly emerged from the stream, and fell on his butt on the grass.
Lin Feng climbed up, covering his sore butt. He was completely confused and looked aggrieved and bewildered.
"We're all grown men, so what if we take a shower together? Do you really need to whip me with vines?"
Su Yue came out from behind the tree beside the stream angrily, her face flushed and her hair a little wet. She pointed at Lin Feng and said, "You...you! Who wants to talk to a man like you?"
She stamped her feet, ran to Bai Qingchen, and sat down angrily.
Lin Feng scratched his head, looked at Bai Qingchen, then looked at Su Yue who was sulking with her back to him, and was completely puzzled.
"Brother Bai, is Su Yue particularly shy, or did I offend him in some way?"
Bai Qingchen looked at Lin Feng's completely honest and straightforward expression, then looked at Su Yue's ears that were red with anger, and the corners of his mouth twitched almost imperceptibly.
In the end, he just said lightly: "Maybe."
He didn't point it out, and some things should be left to Su Yue to handle on her own.
After some hard work by Bai Qingchen and Su Yue, the formation was finally completed.
At the center of the formation, the wood spiritual power injected by Su Yue exuded a gentle and attractive breath of vitality, which had a fatal attraction to the monsters in the forest.
The three of them were lying in ambush in the bushes outside the formation. Lin Feng gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
Su Yue excitedly and nervously clutched a few attack talismans and whispered, "Brother Bai, will this really work?"
Bai Qingchen didn't say anything, but just made a gesture to keep quiet.
Not long after, there was a slight vibration from the ground.
First, several low-level herbivorous monsters shaped like deer were attracted by the formation and stepped into the range of the formation cautiously.
They seemed to have sensed something and pawed their hooves restlessly, but ultimately they could not resist their instinctive desire and continued to move closer to the center of the formation.
The moment they stepped into the core area.
Buzz!
The pale golden array pattern carved on the ground suddenly lit up, and several sharp invisible wind blades appeared out of thin air, cutting through the air with a sharp sound, and instantly crossed each other.
Puff puff puff!
With a few muffled sounds, the low-level monsters didn't even have time to scream before their vital parts were precisely cut off and they fell dead on the spot.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!" The jade slips in the hands of the three people vibrated at the same time, and the points increased.
"It's done!" Su Yue almost jumped up with excitement, but was held down by Lin Feng.
"Don't be anxious, there are more powerful monsters approaching." Lin Feng lowered his voice and stared into the depths of the forest.
Sure enough, the smell of blood soon attracted more powerful predators.
A rock-armored pig at the peak of Qi Refining, covered in rock-like armor and with exposed fangs, rushed over grunting.
It is huge in size, with thick skin and flesh, and has amazing brute force.
The rock-armored pig rushed into the range of the formation, and the wind blade slashed on its thick rock armor, making a crisp sound of tinkling, leaving only a few white marks, which was not fatal at all.
It was enraged, its scarlet eyes locked onto the center of the formation, and it roared and accelerated as it rushed forward, causing the ground to shake.
"I'll do it!" Lin Feng shouted softly and jumped out like a cheetah.
The spiritual power of the middle stage of foundation building was injected into the long sword without reservation, and the sword body burst out with brilliant silver-blue lightning.
He did not choose to fight head-on, but instead used his physical advantage to slide sideways nimbly to avoid the head-on collision with the Rock Armored Pig.
The long sword in his hand was like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, carrying a dazzling flash of lightning, and pierced into the relatively fragile side of the rock-armored pig's neck with incredible precision.
"Ah--!" The rock-armored pig let out a shrill howl, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang. It twitched a few times and then became motionless.
"Ding!" The jade slip vibrated again, and the points increased by ten points.
"Beautiful!" Su Yue couldn't help but praise.
Lin Feng shook off the blood droplets on his sword in a cool manner and grinned: "No big deal!"
Next, this formation trap became a points harvester for the trio.
The low-level monsters that were attracted were basically automatically strangled by the formation.
Occasionally, a guy at the peak of Qi Refining or with thick skin and flesh would break in, and Lin Feng would deal with him cleanly and neatly.
Su Yue was not idle either. While learning Bai Qingchen's formation arrangement, he used talismans to harass and finish off the enemy, and their cooperation became more and more tacit.
The scores of the three of them kept rising, and the numbers on the jade slips were far ahead of those of other candidates.
