Chapter 180: Gelton Manor 30
The snow in the dense forest was very deep, and Su Qingyun had a hard time walking, taking one deep step and one shallow step.
She felt that she had to recalculate the distance, because at her speed, it would be difficult to cover the one-kilometer radius of the manor.
After walking one kilometer, Su Qingyun saw that there was no one around, so she stopped and leaned against a tree trunk. She turned on the kettle while panting and prepared to drink some hot water.
At this moment, she saw a figure swaying behind a tree.
She quickly tightened the kettle and hid.
The figure flashed twice and came out. It was a huge brown bear.
How could there be a bear? Shouldn’t it be hibernating in this cold winter?
Su Qingyun took out the stun gun from her bag, but then she changed her mind and realized that this concept product from Xu Xinghe's company could only play a defensive role and had no lethality. For a bear this big, shocking it would be no different from scratching it.
She put away the stun gun and took out the knife that Xu Xinghe had given her before she left.
The knife is three inches long and has no cuts. It can be used to cut fruit, but it can also be used to kill a bear... Xu Xinghe is too kind. If it were Ye Jian, he might help her get a machete.
But it’s better to have it than not to have it.
Su Qingyun held the knife handle and hid behind a tree, watching the situation.
Of course she wouldn't take the initiative to attack, she's not crazy.
Now she just hopes the hungry bear will go away on its own.
But the bear seemed to have smelled her scent. It raised its head and sniffed the air first, then stood up and looked in the direction of Su Qingyun.
Su Qingyun quickly covered her face with a scarf.
The bear came toward her, slowly but confidently.
Sweat broke out on Su Qingyun's forehead, and she was trying hard to find a way to deal with the blind bear in her mind.
I heard that bears don't eat carrion, so if you encounter a bear in the wild, you can pretend to be dead.
However, pretending to be dead also requires courage. When a ferocious beast that can tear people apart comes, who dares to lie there motionless?
Climb a tree?
It seems that bears cannot climb trees, but Su Qingyun cannot climb trees either.
She was wearing so many clothes and the tree was so thick, she would probably fall down before climbing two meters.
Su Qingyun began to reflect on herself again. She had been in the dungeon for such a long time but she still hadn't learned any escape skills.
The only reason she didn't die was because Qin Shu burned a bunch of offering cards for her.
The bear slowly approached her. Su Qingyun reached into her bag again. She wanted to take out the summoning card and try again.
Although the system prompts that skill cards cannot be used in the next copy, what if there is a loophole?
Xu Xinghe also suspected that this copy was a test version.
Su Qingyun took out the summoning card, but before she threw it into the air, a figure dropped from the sky. He then carried her on his back and ran forward quickly.
All this happened in the blink of an eye, and by the time Su Qingyun reacted, she was already on the other person's back.
What's going on?
Su Qingyun tilted her head to look, it was the black gold contract god that Ye Jian had summoned.
She summoned the sutra?
Jing Huan ran forward with Su Qingyun on his back, and the bear started chasing him.
Kumamoto is a jungle animal. Although it is bulky, it runs very fast.
But Jing Huan ran faster, and Su Qingyun felt that the trees around him fell back at lightning speed. After more than ten minutes, he had distanced himself from the bear.
After running for another ten minutes, the bear completely disappeared.
"Okay, we've escaped."
Jing Huan put Su Qingyun down.
Su Qingyun put away her knife and skill card. She asked Jing Huan, "How did you get summoned?"
"I am the Black Gold Contract God, and I am not controlled by the system."
Oh my god, Ye Jian’s Soul-Devouring Sword is not controlled by the system, and his Contracted God is not controlled by the system. Does that mean that he as a whole is not controlled by the system?
Su Qingyun asked another question, "Then how did you get summoned by me?"
Jing Huan glanced at Su Qingyun. His eyes were the same as his master Ye Jian's, arrogant and conceited.
He said, "I will only protect you for four hours. Tell me if you have something to say."
A four-hour contract is also fine.
Su Qingyun asked Jing Huan to carry it on his back and continued running forward.
"Is it possible?"
He called her but she ignored him, so he threw her onto his back like a chicken and ran away again.
Su Qingyun didn’t know what Ye Jian’s predecessor as the Contracted God did, but he was definitely good at long-distance running.
He ran for another ten minutes in one breath. During this time, Su Qingyun kept revising his position with the GPS locator.
"I've been called. Run to the right."
"Jinghuan, go through the front of the big tree."
"The Sutra calls..."
In the past, Su Qingyun felt sorry for Ye Yi when he ran with her on his back, but when she summoned this contracted god of Ye Jian, Su Qingyun didn't feel sorry at all.
Even though it was snowing heavily, he was shirtless.
After running for another ten minutes, Su Qingyun suddenly called for a stop because she saw a house.
A house she had seen in Qinggang Town, with a pointed roof, colored glass, and standard Gothic architecture.
At this time, the building stood alone on the snow.
Su Qingyun got down from Jing Huan, straightened her clothes, went up the stairs and knocked on the door of the house.
After a while, a middle-aged woman who looked like a maid opened the door.
"Who are you looking for?" she asked Su Qingyun with her neck stiff.
"I'm looking for Miss Yu Shan."
"Who are you?"
"I'm a maid at Gelton Manor. Our Miss Du Xiaoyue wants to invite Miss Yu Shan to the ball tonight."
"Is there a dance?" A voice came from the inner room. It should be Miss Yu Shan asking.
"Yes, Miss, the maid at Gordon Manor said that Miss Du Xiaoyue wants to invite you to their home for a dance."
"What kind of ball?" Following the voice, a young woman of about twenty-four or twenty-five came out. She was wearing a gorgeous long dress and stood upright like an actress in a musical, and asked Su Qingyun.
It didn't mention what kind of dance system it was, but since they were looking for skirts and necklaces, it must be a social dance.
Su Qingyun used her imagination and said, "Miss Du Xiaoyue has some friends coming from Jiangcheng, and she wants to introduce them to you."
"Oh, how many people are there?"
"Six."
Su Qingyun could only say six because she was a maid now.
"All girls?"
"No, there are four other handsome men."
Yu Shan immediately shouted, "Auntie Wang, Sister Gao, hurry up and dress me up! I need to go to the dance."
Then he went upstairs.
The maid came over and asked Su Qingyun to go back first, "Our Miss Yu Shan will go."
"Okay." Su Qingyun looked at the time. There were still more than four hours until the ball was ready to end, so she said, "The ball will start in five hours. Miss Yu Shan, please come as soon as possible."
The maid nodded and closed the door.
Su Qingyun went down the stairs and asked Jing Huan to carry her back.
Jing Huan disagreed, "I'm here to protect you, not to carry you."
"But you just recited it."
"Just now was just now, and now is now."
Su Qingyun, "..." Why is Ye Jian's contracted god just like Ye Jian, always touching people for three seconds, and then making people hate him after three seconds.
