Mystery Journey (18)
Shi Jianxia's mind was in a mess after receiving a large amount of information at once. Without any evidence, he didn't dare to think any deeper, for fear of forming preconceived ideas.
She pursed her lips, looked at Shi Ting who was still asleep, and asked, "When can Mommy wake up?"
She needed to verify the facts instead of making random guesses without any basis. The truth was right before her eyes.
Seeing her expression change several times, and thinking back to the two words she had just muttered, Zhuo couldn't help but frown. "I'm not sure about this either."
Shi Ting's physical condition is indeed recovering, but when she will wake up depends on when her consciousness fully regains. After more than ten years of coma, she has taken a toll on her.
Shi Jianxia exhaled, suppressed those chaotic thoughts, and asked, "Where are my friends?"
She had wanted to ask this question before, but she couldn't figure out Zhou's thoughts, and she was also afraid that he was hostile to humans. If she accidentally got herself involved, her presence would be minimized.
Zhou glanced at her calmly, "How should I know?"
Shi Jianxia raised an eyebrow immediately: "What do you mean by that? Didn't you drag us into the water? You picked me up, so you wouldn't continue to throw them into the river, right?"
She is bolder now and dares to ask back.
Zhuo said with a half-smile, "That's hard to say."
After saying that, he raised his hand, and an invisible force lifted Shi Jianxia up from the rattan chair, and carried her out in her incredible eyes.
Seeing this, the little bee perched on her shoulder quickly flapped its wings and flew away.
It probably didn't know what was going on. Its antennae moved around and it circled around Shi Jianxia. The whole bee seemed very excited, as if it thought Shi Jianxia was playing a very interesting game with it and it wanted to join in.
Shi Jianxia glared at Zhou angrily, "Put me down now."
Zhou seemed to be deaf, not even lifting his eyelids, letting Shi Jianxia hang in the air and wave his limbs like a dog paddling.
The little bee was even happier. It imitated her and waved its short legs hanging down, almost knocking Shi Jianxiaqi over.
She turned around and poked the little bee's head in annoyance, making it tilt its head blankly, and then start doggy paddling with even more excitement.
Shi Jianxia was speechless.
She was carried out of the tree house by the power of day and thrown directly to the roots of the giant tree.
A passing high-level Zerg noticed the commotion here, curiously leaned over to glance at her, and then secretly glanced at the treetops above.
Perhaps out of fear of the king, they quickly looked away, flapped their wings and flew away, leaving Shi Jianxia sitting on the thick tree roots.
Shi Jianxia rubbed her sore butt, and while she was secretly complaining about Zhou's pettiness, she couldn't help but sigh, worried about Gongye Jiwang and others who had been separated from her.
A whole day had passed since everyone fell into the river. If she had been fished out by daytime, daytime would definitely know where Gongye Jiwang and the others were, but he didn't say anything, like a naughty little kid.
She thought bitterly: No wonder mom likes dad but doesn’t like him!
It was highly likely that he would not be able to learn the whereabouts of Gongye Jiwang and the others from Zhou. Shi Jianxia's eyes rolled and he waved to Little Bee, "Little guy, have you found the person I asked you to find?"
If Zhou can't be relied upon, she can still rely on the little bee. Her own cute cubs are definitely more caring than others'.
The little bee raised its antennae and pointed them toward the center, as if thinking.
Immediately afterwards, an invisible sound wave spread outward. Not long after, the sound waves came back. The little bee's eyes lit up slightly, and it shook its antennae to convey information to Shi Jianxia.
"Come...with...me..."
The three short words made Shi Jianxia smile. She immediately stood up from the tree roots and followed the little bee to the right side of the valley.
Along the way, she saw all kinds of advanced Zerg with different kinds of heads, moving through the dense jungle. Some carried bamboo baskets picking flowers and berries, while others tied leaf bags around their waists, diligently going out to hunt giant creatures and present high-level energy crystals to their king.
Putting aside other factors, Shi Jianxia felt that this kind of life was quite comfortable. If the Zerg could live such a peaceful and tranquil life under the rule of the day, countless families in the Federation would not be destroyed by the continuous insect plagues.
The valley is covered with lush vegetation. Since the Zerg active here basically have wings, they can move directly between the vegetation. There are almost no roads on the ground. It will undoubtedly take a lot of effort for Shi Jianxia to walk through the dense bushes.
In order not to waste time, she took out the flying device, sat on it and followed the little bee forward.
The little bee circled the aircraft curiously, as if trying to confirm what kind of creature it was.
But the aircraft has no life and cannot speak, it can only obey the orders given by its master unconditionally. After looking at the aircraft for a while, it lost interest in it, flapped its transparent wings and flew to Shi Jianxia, shaking its antennae to transmit some intermittent content, all of which were things that happened after it followed its mother to leave the human universe and return to the Zerg universe.
Due to its limited ability to express itself, the little bee always spoke in a disjointed manner, speaking one word at a time. Shi Jianxia listened carefully and most of the time could understand what it wanted to convey and gave just the right amount of praise.
The bee cub was praised, and its wings vibrated faster, revealing joy all over its body. From time to time, it would come close to Shi Jianxia's cheek and cuddle with her, trying to be the most pampered and obedient cub.
The aircraft was very intelligent and would automatically avoid obstacles when it encountered them. Shi Jianxia didn't need to control it specifically. It took the man and the bee less than half an hour to cross the dense bushes and reach their destination.
What appeared before Shi Jianxia's eyes was an endless sea of flowers.
Just then, a breeze blew, and the petals of flowers of various colors swayed. The sweet fragrance of the flowers wafted on her face, making her take a deep breath unconsciously, and it seemed that a lot of the suppressed emotions were blown away.
Many fist-sized bees shuttled between flowers, diligently collecting nectar. When they noticed someone appearing, they would tilt their heads to take a look, but quickly retracted their gaze and concentrated on their work.
Shi Jianxia was wondering how the little bee brought him here, when he glanced away and was caught off guard by the sight of a person standing on a large pink flower with a disk more than one meter wide.
Looking closely, who else could it be but Gongye Jiwang?
His hands and feet were shackled with golden chains, and he was collecting nectar under the supervision of a bee.
He was in a very disheveled state at this moment. No one knew where his upper body clothes had gone, revealing his perfectly shaped chest and abdominal muscles. The muscles in his arms were slightly tense when he was collecting honey.
Perhaps because he had been working hard for quite some time, beads of sweat flowed from his neck to his collarbone, and his originally fair skin was coated with a layer of honey-colored glow under the sunlight.
The aura of the golden chain is very familiar, it is the power of day.
Not far from Gongye Jiwang, Lei Xin and the other two were also shackled with golden chains, collecting nectar with expressionless faces. The scene was both weird and funny. Perhaps these strong men had never thought that one day they would be treated as slaves.
Shi Jianxia took advantage of Gongye Jiwang not noticing her to take a few more glances at his neatly aligned abdominal muscles.
Perhaps her gaze was too materialistic, Gongye Jiwang looked over sharply, and coincidentally met her eyes, and was stunned for a moment.
Shi Jianxia saw him stand up suddenly, and his tense shoulders gradually relaxed as if two huge stones had been lifted off.
The bee in charge of supervision was startled by his action and quickly swung the whip in his hand, about to hit him.
Shi Jianxia immediately flew over with the little bee and stopped the whip that was about to fall without saying a word.
The supervisor bee looked at him unfriendly, and the other bees that were collecting honey also gathered around.
The little bee hurriedly shook its antennae to convey the message, but it was Zhou who gave the order to arrest Gongye Jiwang and others for collecting nectar. Without his permission, the little bee's words were useless.
Shi Jianxia looked at the bees that were gathering more and more, gnashing his teeth. Not caring whether Zhou, who was still in the tree house, could hear him, he shouted, "Zhu! Let my friend go!"
When the bees heard her calling the king's name directly, they were all stunned and then showed unfriendly expressions.
Another gust of wind blew, and the flowers were swayed left and right. The golden chains that bound Gongye Jiwang continued to circulate energy steadily, firmly suppressing his power.
The bees gathered closer and closer.
He won't cry until he sees the coffin.
Shi Jianxia used his trump card, "Zhu, don't play dead. I know you can sense what's happening here. If you don't let my friend go, when mom wakes up, I'll tell her you bullied me!"
The energy circulation of the golden chain stagnated.
