Chapter 138: Forced to do something
Many people seemed not to hear, still immersed in their own despair. Yun Xiang raised an eyebrow, did not urge him anymore, and packed his things.
Seeing this, Shi Qixuan also hurried to help. Although she was usually noisy, she was stronger than anyone else at the critical moment.
Yun Xiang was not surprised at all. After spending so many days together, they knew everything they needed to know. Otherwise, they would not have become friends.
Just in case, Yun wanted to put the blood of the strange beast in small porcelain bottles and give one to everyone.
Soon, more and more people joined in, and finally everyone was moving. The speed suddenly increased, and they left the camp in the dark.
At this moment, someone suddenly looked back. Apart from the dark shadow of the tree, there seemed to be nothing else, but it also seemed like there was something more.
After walking for a while, they suddenly realized that they had left their despair there. Looking up ahead, they saw a slender figure, scouting for the way, and everyone laughed.
Yun Xiang himself didn't have any thoughts. No matter how desperate he was, as long as he was still breathing, he had to keep going.
Death? That's a strenuous task, so save yourself the trouble.
Not long after they left, many roots sprouted out of the camp again. They were thin and soft, and seemed to be afraid of being discovered, so they only exposed a small part. They sucked the blood from the ground and then hid immediately.
The jungle is really not suitable for night travel, especially when you can't use a flashlight. Everyone stumbled along the way under the faint starlight, and strangely no one called for a stop.
"Look! What is that?" someone screamed.
I saw black shadows in the distance, sometimes condensing, sometimes dispersing, sometimes moving, sometimes stagnating; changing postures and stretching their bodies at will.
Sometimes it looks like a ferocious beast with bared fangs and claws, or a strange plant entwined with vines; sometimes it looks like a warrior wielding a sword, but the next moment, it turns into a quiet little girl...
"Is...is it Yi Cun Lian?" The girl held the small porcelain bottle tightly, ready to drink it immediately if she felt anything wrong.
No matter what the side effects are, we can’t see them now, so saving lives is the most important thing.
"Like a parasite!"
"Nonsense, it's a mutant beast!"
"They look like people. Are they the rescue team?"
"What a sweet dream! I guess people outside don't know what happened to us."
"..."What a truth.
Time passes in the jungle, while outside, chaos reigns. Contact with the Cang Qiong Star was lost half a month ago, and three days ago, it completely vanished from the galaxy. Despite numerous searches, there's still no trace of it.
"Uncle Dong, what do you think about this?" Xie Yu's brows were furrowed, his face solemn. Upon closer inspection, he saw redness at the corners of his eyes, and looked tired and haggard.
"Boy, you should rest!"
"I'm not sleepy. Tell me the situation."
"It's impossible for it to disappear. It's probably hidden by something."
“I think so too. Youyou played the call to me before, but she hung up before it rang. I discovered it when I came back from the mission.
She must have encountered something difficult, but she's unsure whether she can handle it for now. So the possibility of being trapped is relatively high, but the danger is not too serious.
But after a long time, there is no guarantee." Xie Yu rubbed his brows and forced himself to cheer up. He knew she was fine, but he couldn't help but worry.
"It won't be long, I promise." Qian Zedong looked at Xie Yu seriously, "Go to bed now!"
Seeing that he insisted, Xie Yu said, "Okay!"
He only slept for half an hour, then suddenly got up, as if he had thought of something, and drove away in his hover car.
"Ayu!" Zhu Xu ran for a long time but couldn't catch up, "Asshole!"
"Don't chase him, he must have something important to do." Jin Jiaren held Zhu Xu's shoulder.
"Is it dangerous?"
"He's not that reckless, don't worry!"
…
Everyone here was talking and guessing, and the more they guessed, the more excited they became. Suddenly, someone said, "Let's go over and take a look, and we'll know!"
Who dares? Go ahead!
Everyone turned around to refute, but found that Yun Xiang was looking at them calmly, looking around as if he had done nothing.
"Pfft..." Shi Qixuan couldn't help laughing.
Yun wanted to blink. Was she that scary? She was just kindly giving them some advice on how to solve the puzzle. She was definitely not joking.
"Captain Yun, what the hell is that?"
She didn’t want to be captain.
Everyone here is a senior, and if you pick one, their resume is terrifying. She has no experience, and she has little experience, so how can she lead them? Yun Xiang is very self-aware.
Of course, this is what she thought. In fact, Sheng Yulan immediately resigned from the position of captain after leaving the camp and recommended her.
Everyone voted unanimously in favor of the resolution immediately, very quickly, as if it had been discussed beforehand, and there was no room for her to refuse. If she resisted a little, everyone would immediately explain the situation to her and appeal to her emotions.
In short, we have to do things in a hurry, but we must not miss out on anything that needs to be done.
"It should be fog." Yun Xiang paused, "Just call me by my name."
"Fog? No way—" No, no, that's too direct. I should be more tactful. "It hasn't rained in the past two days."
"...Mist Hidden Tree, let's rest here tonight." Yun Xiang said, and walked ahead first.
There is a saying in the interstellar world, "Where there is a foggy tree, there is heaven." The reality is not that exaggerated, but it does not attract mosquitoes.
The ground beneath the tree is also very clean. Because it absorbs mist all year round, it is surrounded by clouds and mist, giving it a very fairy-like atmosphere.
This was the first time they had been so lucky after being trapped for so long. When everyone heard Yun Xiang's words, they felt relieved and ran over.
There was no danger in the Mist Hidden Forest, so Yun Xiang didn't remind everyone to be careful and defensive, letting them relax. A good balance between tension and relaxation would allow them to persevere longer.
Unfortunately, her good intentions were broken by a sharp shout.
Everyone was soundly asleep when they were woken up, but they didn't even open their eyes before drawing their weapons to protect themselves, "Bugs? Where are the bugs?"
"How could it be here? It's a one-inch lotus!"
"Oh, where, where!" Everyone rubbed their eyes and woke up.
Oh, no? What's wrong?
At this time, there were a few more people in Bian Qin's tent, including old acquaintances such as Qian Zexi. Yun Xiang was more confident this time. As the captain of Mercury College, he was also the captain of the Planting College.
A few teenagers in the crowd whispered to each other and walked towards the tent to eavesdrop.
Some people couldn't wait any longer and followed suit.
"What's going on?" Qian Zexi saw Sheng Yulan being escorted by Bian Qin's guards, with disheveled hair and looking in a miserable state.
"Ask her?" Bian Qin sneered.
Qian Zexi turned his gaze to Sheng Yulan. Sheng Yulan struggled a bit, and Bian Qin signaled the guards to let her go.
Sheng Yulan was free. She shook her arms, straightened her clothes and hair, and replied in a very straightforward manner, "I assassinated her."
"Wow!" Yun Xiang's face was full of black lines. Why did it feel like it was a joke?
Teacher Sheng, this is not something you, who are so calm and composed, would do.
Bian Qin was angry and indignant, but had no intention of killing.
Yun Xiang looked puzzled. Bian Qin didn't even try to kill Teacher Sheng directly. She thought that what happened last time was enough for her to do so.
Unless... Oh, it seems that Teacher Sheng has provoked Bian Qin more than once, but this time it is more serious.
Since you don't want her to die, then it's much easier to talk about it. She was also quite curious about why Bian Qin could tolerate Sheng Yulan.
