Chapter 18: Neither the injured nor the new friends can be lost



Ruan Ping kept calling him, but there was no sign of him. Ruan Xi couldn't tell the direction of his voice, as if the sound came from all directions. His voice became more and more urgent, which made Ruan Xi feel a headache.

"Stop! Big brother, don't shout first. Tell me what's around you and I'll come find you." The positioning on the personal terminal showed that his position and Ruan Ping's position were almost overlapping, which meant that the distance between the two people could not be very far, but he just couldn't see Ruan Ping.

That's strange.

Ruan Xi was thinking in his mind while searching for Ruan Ping. Suddenly, he looked up and saw Ruan Ping's back. He was about to speak, but the next moment, Ruan Ping's figure disappeared out of thin air.

Ruan Xi: "..." This is not a ghost, right? There are still ghosts in the interstellar age? Have ghosts also developed along with technology?

Ruan Xi has always been an atheist. Ghosts and gods can't scare him. They only arouse his curiosity.

At this moment, he was very curious about what had just happened.

But the strange thing was that he kept turning around in circles, but he never saw Ruan Ping again. It was like he had seen a ghost.

"Xiao Xi! Why haven't you come to find me yet! When I hear your voice, I feel like you are so close to me..." Ruan Ping had been looking for Ruan Xi in the mountains and forests for as long as he had been apart from her, but he couldn't find her. He was almost dying of anxiety. Now he finally heard her voice, but still couldn't see her. He was so anxious that he wanted to jump on the spot.

"An Jing, I know where you are." He could only hear the voice but could not see the person. This situation made Ruan Xi have to associate it with the restrictions of the mountains and forests. He stopped his tentative actions, activated the wood-type ability in his body, and followed the changes in the strength of the signal. Finally, he found Ruan Ping's location.

"...Xiao Xi, where did you come from!" Ruan Ping looked at Ruan Xi who suddenly appeared in front of him, his eyes widened, and he stood there not daring to move.

"Magic?"

Ruan Xi has roughly figured out the pattern of the restrictions in this forest. It is nothing more than stopping people who shouldn't enter. In this case, he is the one who should enter?

As Ruan Xi was thinking this, he grabbed Ruan Ping's hand, turned around and walked back. Then, not surprisingly, he found that Ruan Ping was blocked by an invisible barrier. Not only was he blocked, but because he pulled him too hard, he was bounced back and sat down on the ground, completely dazed.

Ruan Xi sighed and walked back to Ruan Ping, pulled him up, and said helplessly: "You see, this place is restricted. I can enter, but you can't."

Ruan Ping: "...Is this discrimination? Is it because I'm too stupid?"

Ruan Ping was quite self-aware and spoke with a look of grievance, which almost made Ruan Xi laugh.

"Of course not, maybe... it's because I know herbs." Ruan Xi certainly couldn't tell anyone about his superpowers, so he chose a compromise answer. Surprisingly, Ruan Ping was very receptive to this idea.

"In the final analysis, it's just that I'm stupid. But, Xiaoxi, I'm glad you're okay. I've been circling around the edge of the forest and couldn't find you. I was almost getting anxious." Ruan Ping didn't dwell on it. He muttered to himself for a while and finally relaxed a little.

Ruan Xi didn't respond to this conclusion, but shrugged helplessly. After comforting Ruan Ping, he said, "Brother, I have to go in again. Why don't you go back first? I'll be home as soon as I find the herbs." At this point, Ruan Xi deliberately paused and shook his right wrist with the personal terminal. "With this, I can always find a way out."

Most importantly, there's an unconscious patient inside waiting for his treatment! He also needs to test the medicinal value of the Tree of Life. Judging by the extent of his entrapment, the odds aren't very good. Perhaps the mutant vines have damaged its roots. Hopefully, it can slowly recover. Otherwise, it will be a hindrance to the growth of the Tree of Life.

"You still want to go in! Haven't we already collected a lot of herbs before?" Ruan Ping was not very happy. The most important thing was that he was worried about Ruan Xi's safety. After all, he was alone.

"Yes, the backpack containing the herbs was left inside." Ruan Ping took the initiative to give him an excuse, and Ruan Xi took it out and used it naturally.

Ruan Xi patted Ruan Ping's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine. I'm very familiar with this forest."

Don’t lose either the injured or your new friends!
