The infatuation and longing in Qingluan's eyes were so obvious; it was the first time Fang Qingdai had ever seen her show such intense interest in something.
but……
"Qingluan, the Immortal Burial Oasis is fraught with danger. Not only are there densely packed mutated plants, but more importantly, there is something that can create illusions. We do not have the ability to enter at the moment."
Fang Qingdai thought of the little vine in her space. It grew in the space, so it was connected to her mind. Fang Qingdai could use the little vine to disguise herself as a wood-type ability user.
Compared to the eye-catching identity of a level 5 spatial ability user, Xiao Teng could at most pretend to be a level 1 or 2 ability user, and hardly attracted any attention from anyone.
If only we could get some seeds of those powerful mutated plants from the Immortal Burial Ground...
Fang Qingdai was getting excited just thinking about it. That way, even if Jing Yi left, her martial arts skills would be greatly improved!
Unfortunately, the pressure from the Immortal Burial Oasis was too great for Fang Qingdai; the previous insect swarm and the environment still haunted her.
Fortunately, Qingluan was sensible. Although she was a little disappointed, she still nodded obediently and said, "I understand, sister. We'll come back to collect these treasures when we become stronger!"
Fang Qingdai nodded with relief, but the next second, she heard Jing Yi say, "If it's really necessary, perhaps we can enter the space and then sneak into the oasis?"
Like Fang Qingdai sneaking into a high-radiation zone to rescue him.
Fang Qingdai was stunned for a moment, then said blankly, "Oh, right!"
How could I forget about the space!
If you can avoid high radiation, you should also be able to avoid the things in the Immortal Burial Oasis, right?
If she were alone, Fang Qingdai would have rushed forward immediately.
A place that even the base's official authorities cannot touch, where countless treasures lie dormant!
But this time, I happened to bring Qingluan with me.
Fang Qingdai looked at Qingluan, hesitated for a moment, and tentatively asked, "Qingluan, can you stay with Brother Jingyi..."
"I don't want to!"
For the first time, Qingluan decisively and vehemently rejected Fang Qingdai's proposal!
For some unknown reason, a hint of fear appeared in her eyes, and the little girl immediately hugged Fang Qingdai's leg tightly, her dark eyes filled with pleading.
"Sister, don't abandon Qingluan!"
Her eyes were a little red, but her tone was firm: "Sister, let's not go. Let's wait until we're stronger before we go in to find the treasure, okay?"
Jing Yi frowned deeply.
Like Fang Qingdai, he is a man of action. If he comes up with an idea that is reasonably feasible, he will definitely go back and put it into practice.
So he didn't think much about it before suggesting that they sneak in from the hidden space.
Since he had left the base earlier, he had been staying in Fang Qingdai's space. When Qingluan had a problem before, Fang Qingdai had brought him into the space in an emergency, so this time she did not isolate him in the black area.
Looking at the thriving scene in Fang Qingdai's space, Jing Yi marveled countless times that this strange space was a perfect tool for survival in the wasteland.
Because of their excessive adoration of the fairy-tale-like space, they forgot that the owner of the space was just a flesh-and-blood girl with a fragile life.
Jing Yi then spoke up: "Then let's not take the risk. There's plenty of time in the future, no need to rush."
After saying that, he looked at Qingluan and said, "Qingluan, you want those mutated plants in the Immortal Burial Oasis, right? I promise you, I will collect more mutated plant specimens and give them to you next time we meet!"
Before Qingluan could speak, Fang Qingdai spoke first: "Then you can collect some seeds while you're at it, I need them!"
Hearing her matter-of-fact tone, Jing Yi subtly curled the corners of his lips: "I know."
Fang Qingdai glanced at the oasis with some regret, but gradually calmed down.
The terrifying thing lurking in the oasis is capable of creating illusions.
Illusions are different from radiation. Illusions attack the human brain, and Fang Qingdai wasn't sure if space could isolate that thing.
If you venture in alone, and the space is not isolated, you'll be trapped inside the oasis and truly have no one to turn to for help.
Since she wasn't going to enter the Immortal Burial Oasis, Fang Qingdai didn't linger any longer.
"Good luck with your development, and keep it up!" After saying goodbye in a carefree manner, Fang Qingdai carried Qingluan onto the sand vehicle that had been prepared for her.
The two sisters had gone far away, becoming just a small black dot in the vast wilderness, but Jingyi still stood there, staring blankly at that black dot.
It wasn't until the tall third brother asked in confusion, "Boss, what are you looking at?"
The short fourth brother quickly tugged at the third brother, winking and pulling him away: "What are you doing? Can't you see that the eldest brother is reluctant to part with those two sisters? Just let him look at them a little longer!"
After receiving supplies from Fang Qingdai, Lao Liu, who had been in poor condition, felt somewhat better. Upon hearing the gossip, he quickly propped himself up and sat up.
"Third brother, fourth brother, who does the eldest brother miss? Is the eldest brother planning to find a partner?"
The fourth brother grinned, his eyebrows flying, and exclaimed excitedly, "Definitely! I've never seen the eldest brother so absent-minded!"
"And you didn't see it just now, the boss was so gentle when she spoke to those two sisters~"
"What gentleness?" Jing Yi's voice suddenly rang out, startling the gossip trio so much that their hair almost stood on end!
"Big brother, big brother, big brother..." the fourth brother called out timidly with a bitter face.
Jing Yi frowned and stared at the group. He was always serious and stern in front of his subordinates, with an almost rigid demeanor. His imposing presence was irresistible to ordinary people.
Jing Yi only spoke after the three of them had turned pale and were covered in sweat: "You have suffered during this time."
Jing Yi had no interest in finding out what the others were gossiping about. He only looked at his three brothers, who were once full of vigor, but now looked pale and thin, with messy hair, dark circles under their eyes, and cracked, dry lips.
It was obvious that the group hadn't had a proper rest in a long time. They were in the wilderness, many of them were injured, and they had very few survival supplies. No wonder they were living in such a miserable state.
Even Jing Yi felt a pang of sympathy. He patted the three of them on the shoulder, his tone unusually gentle: "Go to the vehicle and get the supplies. Everyone, eat and drink your fill first. If you're injured, get your wounds bandaged up, and then get in the vehicle to rest."
"Get a good night's sleep. I'll stay here with you. Everything will be alright."
"Boss!" The youngest member, the sixth brother, couldn't hold back any longer.
Like a stray dog that had been wandering for a long time finally seeing its owner again, the young man cried with tears streaming down his face, but managed to get up and rush to Jing Yi's side for a big hug!
Jing Yi frowned, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to push him away.
He sighed, raised his hand and patted the sixth brother's back reassuringly, before looking at the stunned third and fourth brothers.
"What are you standing there for? Quickly help Lao Liu to get bandaged and repaired!"
"Oh, oh, oh!" The third and fourth brothers finally reacted, helped the sixth brother off Jing Yi, and the three of them walked towards the sand truck together.
"Hey, it's great that the boss found a partner. Look how gentle he is now, he's so gentle with us!"
"Yeah, yeah, but is that person really the boss's partner? Partners don't live separately."
