Chapter 141: Apprentice vs. Immortal (18)
"Let's go, and don't touch me this time."
"Besides, you just reminded me that I still have to memorize the Encyclopedia of Poisonous Plants."
Xu Jinxiao's voice was lazy and full of laughter, his fox eyes were slightly curved, and his smile was unusually brilliant.
This time, everyone was silent. They were shocked by the scene just now. They didn't expect that a seemingly ordinary leaf could kill them.
Most of them came here for training for the first time. Previously, they had overcome all obstacles and entered the Wumian Sect to practice Taoism. They considered themselves to be the best and were very proud of themselves.
Now that they have left the sect, they did not expect the danger to be so sudden and unexpected. The outside world is too dangerous, which refreshed their cognition.
If they are ignorant, any insignificant thing can take their lives.
No wonder the senior brother always asked them to memorize a lot of books. If they hadn’t come out, they would never have experienced it personally.
The air fell into silence. Xu Jinxiao threw the leaves away and said, "Let's go."
Everyone immediately responded in unison: "Yes, Big Brother."
Xu Jinxiao walked in front this time, and Yu Ying followed beside him, talking to him from time to time.
Time passed quickly and it was soon evening. On the way, they encountered several small monsters and killed them together.
Gusts of cold wind blew through the pitch-black woods, and the biting cold wind kept passing through. With the help of the moisture below, the cold wind penetrated into the bone marrow and was so cold that it was incomparable.
Everyone quickly built a fire, and the blazing flames dispelled some of the cold.
They all sat around the fire, and Song Mu added some branches and hay from time to time to keep the flames going.
Xu Jinxiao and Yu Yingze sat on the branches and did not compete with other disciples for the fire.
The two of them mobilized their spiritual energy to keep their bodies warm, but only people with enormous spiritual power could do that.
The people below sat together and discussed in a low voice the situation of keeping watch for tonight. They were monks and although it didn't matter if they didn't sleep for one night, it would affect tomorrow's training. In the end, they decided that one person would keep watch in the first half of the night and one in the second half.
As the night deepened, Xu Jinxiao leaned his head against the tree trunk and closed his eyes. Yu Ying beside him had already gone to play chess with Zhou Gong.
When everything was quiet, a thick fog suddenly spread in the forest. The thick white color filled the surroundings, and it was impossible to see clearly beyond a few steps.
Xu Jinxiao noticed it keenly. He suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp gaze fell on the thick fog not far away, and he frowned tightly.
What the hell is this? I've never seen it before!
He immediately pushed Yu Ying beside him awake. Yu Ying was pushed so hard that he almost fell off the tree. He quickly woke up and said, "What's wrong? Senior Brother."
"Look."
Xu Jinxiao raised her chin towards him, motioning him to look over.
Yu Ying quickly turned his head and saw a thick fog not far away, which seemed to be coming over with its fangs and claws to devour them.
Yu Ying's eyes widened immediately, and he shuddered as he yelled, "What the hell is this?!"
Everyone below was awakened and scrambled to their feet. "What's wrong, Second Brother? What happened?"
Xu Jinxiao lowered his head and thought about it, and decided to take them away and away from this strange fog.
"Look behind you, there's a strange fog."
Yu Ying pointed in the direction of the fog, his tone cautious.
"Um?"
The people on the ground looked carefully and discovered the blurry white fog. It was normal that the night watchman didn't notice it, after all, he was standing high and could see far.
"Let's get out of here first, this white fog isn't normal."
Xu Jinxiao jumped down from the tree lightly, landed gracefully on the ground, and came in front of them.
"yes."
Xu Jinxiao led them in the opposite direction. Just as they walked a distance, white fog suddenly rose up around them and swept towards them from all directions. Everyone was enveloped in it without any warning.
Xu Jinxiao was stunned at the moment, and then cursed inwardly that the disciple had no martial ethics. With a "bang", a disciple fell to the ground, followed by the sound of many more falling to the ground.
Xu Jinxiao gritted his teeth to stay awake. At the last moment, a powerful barrier was cast around them, blocking out a large amount of white fog, but he still inhaled a small amount of fog and fell into a coma.
There were more than a dozen figures lying in a disorderly manner within the light blue barrier, and thick white mist was drifting slowly around the barrier.
The monster that was secretly coveting them sneaked in and wanted to go in and devour everyone.
"Sizzle"
Unexpectedly, the moment it touched the barrier, it was quickly burned into ashes.
This move made the eyes that were watching secretly retreat quietly.
Xu Jinxiao was walking in a chaos, his eyes blank and aimless, with panic and vigilance clearly visible in his eyes.
He walked in confusion, his dark eyes turning from time to time. He felt as if he had forgotten something very important, but he couldn't remember it.
As I walked, the surrounding scene suddenly changed.
The surroundings gradually turned into a fiery red, and the sounds of gongs and drums could be heard faintly.
The scene gradually became clear. He was standing in the middle of the hall. In front of him sat a middle-aged couple, wearing festive red clothes. They sat on the high seats, one on his left and one on his right, looking at him with satisfaction.
Xu Jinxiao turned around and looked around. The place was full of people, all dressed in festive red clothes, chatting and laughing with each other.
Xu Jinxiao felt that he was still holding something in his hand. He looked down and saw that it was red silk used for weddings in ancient times, with a big red flower in the middle.
Xu Jinxiao was immediately stunned. What was going on? He was going to get married?
The surroundings were bustling with activity, but he stood in the middle of it all, lost and bewildered.
Suddenly, a lot of memories flooded into his mind. It turned out that he had a childhood sweetheart. They had been together for a long time and were finally getting married today.
Xu Jinxiao's heart was extremely calm, without any joy of getting married. He frowned in confusion but did not think deeply about it.
"The bride has arrived."
A sharp sound suddenly rang out, like a needle piercing the ear.
Xu Jinxiao couldn't help but frown again when he heard it, and then a fragrance came from behind him. He tilted his head slightly, and a blood-red skirt appeared in his sight.
Just as he was stunned, a pale and slender hand reached out, which contrasted sharply with the wide bright red sleeves and looked weird.
Xu Jinxiao instantly understood her thoughts, stroked the red silk, and hesitantly handed the other end of the silk to her.
"Bow to heaven and earth."
When the sharp voice sounded, Xu Jinxiao and the person beside him bent down deeply.
"Bow to your parents twice."
The sharp voice sounded again. Xu Jinxiao looked at the two people in front of him, hesitated, and then bent down.
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
A strange feeling flashed through Xu Jinxiao's mind, and he soon found that he couldn't bend down no matter what he did. He was extremely resistant psychologically and couldn't bend at all.
He blinked blankly. This was what they both wanted, right? Why was he resisting?
I have a feeling that something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on what.
