Chapter 53: The Secret of Linhu Village 24
Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe did not turn back directly, but moved forward into the forest.
This was the suggestion made by Xu Xinghe. He said that it would be a waste of time to go back to the edge of the pond. They only had four days, and a vertical insertion might better trigger a new plot.
Su Qingyun agreed.
But after walking for a whole day, they didn't touch anything except blisters on their feet.
In the evening, the two men set up camp beside an open rock.
After the tent was set up, Su Qingyun joked with Xu Xinghe while he was cooking soup, asking him if he had anything like a balance bike in his space.
"With our current strength, it would take seven days to walk and we wouldn't know if we could make it through the customs. Our legs would probably be crippled."
She ordered a few packets of foot bath powder from the APP and also bought some ointments and other things.
Before Xu Xinghe cooked the soup, Su Qingyun boiled a pot of hot water and soaked her feet in a simple foot bath.
Xu Xinghe smiled and did not respond to Su Qingyun's joke. He took out a map from his backpack and began to study it.
Su Qingyun stretched his neck to look, and saw five big words written on the map: Skeleton Swamp Map.
Su Qingyun frowned slightly and asked Xu Xinghe, "Why didn't you show me this picture earlier?"
"I can't get it out earlier."
"What? Time-limited delivery, and this is the new technology developed by your Starry Group?"
Xu Xinghe smiled again.
Xu Xinghe often smiles, but smiling does not mean that he is friendly. On the contrary, Su Qingyun feels that his smile is just a means for him to refuse to communicate with others. There is no emotion, it is all technique.
Su Qingyun wiped her feet, put on clean shoes and socks, and walked behind Xu Xinghe, staring at his map. She said sarcastically, "Mr. Xu, you're a strange person. We've been walking for a whole day and you didn't even take out the map. Now that we've set up camp, you're only thinking of studying it. Do you think we haven't walked enough?"
"No." Xu Xinghe denied, "This picture cannot be taken out before."
"Why, are you afraid of attracting ghosts?"
"That's about right. I stole this map from Chui Ling Temple and haven't completely left the temple. If I take it out, I'm afraid the system will judge me as violating the rules."
"Steal?" Su Qingyun squatted next to Xu Xinghe. She didn't expect Xu Xinghe to use this word to describe his behavior.
In the bamboo forest dungeon, when he chopped off the snake's head and then dug out a county annals from the snake's blood, wasn't that considered stealing?
Xu Xinghe seemed to have understood Su Qingyun's thoughts again. He glanced at her sideways and explained, "The bamboo forest is a public area, but Chui Ling Temple is not."
"Oh, then where did you steal it from?" Su Qingyun made a grabbing gesture.
"Below the square platform where the sutras are chanted in the main hall."
"Under the host's nose."
"Except for what's happening right under your nose, monks always close their eyes when they chant."
Su Qingyun, "..." Xu Xinghe is a bit humorous, but not much.
"So, Mr. Xu's suggestion that we cross the woods vertically is based on facts?"
Xu Xinghe smiled again, but this smile still showed that he didn't want to answer this stupid question.
Su Qingyun stood up, handed him the foot bath powder, and suggested that he soak his feet before going to bed to relieve fatigue.
"Today is the same as last night. After dinner, I will watch the first half of the night, and you will watch the second half."
"No, I looked at the map and the area we are in is safe."
"Oh!" Su Qingyun stretched his neck to look at the map again, and sure enough, there was an area of green on the map.
However, there is a red area not far from the green.
"Then... what does this red area next to it represent? The polluted area?" Su Qingyun pointed to the red area on the map.
Xu Xinghe closed the map and said, "The area we are going to tomorrow."
"ah!"
"Eat quickly and go to bed early after eating. We have a tough battle tomorrow." Xu Xinghe began to serve the soup.
Although Xu Xinghe said this, Su Qingyun felt that he did not look like someone who was ready for a tough battle. He was not nervous, but rather seemed to be looking forward to something.
This person is indeed very strong.
The two of them quickly finished dinner and were getting ready for bed when Su Qingyun felt something was wrong.
How can two people sleep in just one tent?
Although Su Qingyun was 23 years old and had been in a relationship with a scumbag, she and Qin Shu had never kissed or slept together.
Sleeping in a tent with a man she had only known for three days was a bit too much for Su Qingyun.
But she couldn't be shy.
Entering a strange world and completing a level is like entering a martial arts world to fight. Sometimes the situation does not allow for pretentiousness.
Su Qingyun fell asleep, sitting cross-legged in her usual meditation posture.
This made Xu Xinghe, who came in later, a little confused.
"Can you sleep like this?"
"I'm used to it."
"Has it been like this since childhood?"
How is it possible? Anyone who sleeps like this since childhood is a monster, but Su Qingyun didn't say that. Thinking of Xu Xinghe's rejection with a smile, she used an indifferent tone.
"When entering a dungeon, you need to be prepared at all times. I don't sleep like this even if the system requires it. I'm used to it."
When saying these words, Su Qingyun still had his eyes closed, like a highly respected elder.
snort.
Xu Xinghe responded with this.
Su Qingyun clenched her fists. How could Xu Xinghe, who was thirty-six degrees, let out such a cold laugh?
Su Qingyun held the black rattan stick in her arms. She swore that if Xu Xinghe dared to sneer like that again, she would stick the black rattan stick into his nose.
But Xu Xinghe fell asleep and turned off the lights in the tent.
It was dark all around, and Su Qingyun missed Ye Yi again.
It would be great if Ye Yi was here. He is a little cold but he won’t smile heartlessly. I feel safe enough under his cold wings.
I wonder if Ye Yi misses her as her master when she is in the offering card...
Su Qingyun fell asleep unknowingly, and she had a dream in which she met the man who had been in her heart again by the lake.
The man leaned over and pinched her chin with a smile. She felt his warmth and the faint fragrance of peaches.
This feeling was very happy. When Su Qingyun woke up, she found that the corners of her mouth were smiling, but the next second she could no longer smile.
Because she was sleeping in Xu Xinghe's arms, with her hands around his waist.
Xu Xinghe was a very gentleman. He lay on his back in his sleeping bag with his hands on his chest.
Su Qingyun quickly sat up and maintained her meditation posture.
Xu Xinghe slowly woke up.
"Isn't it too late to sleep like this?"
Su Qingyun, "..." He woke up early?
But Su Qingyun did not respond to his words. As long as she didn't admit it, there would be no embarrassment.
She continued to close her eyes and rest.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xinghe asked again, "What is your relationship with Ye Jian?"
Su Qingyun couldn't pretend anymore, she suddenly opened her eyes.
