Chapter 99 Chapter 99
The five men slipped away without telling any of the villagers.
It was not until dinner time that Lan Shahai and the others sent someone to call Lan Yi and his companions, as Lan Yi had not yet arrived.
"No manners at all! Still waiting to be invited!"
Several elders who were a little older were very dissatisfied. They didn't want to experience what happened on New Year's Eve again, so this time they would not let Lan Yi see the Lan Ling Bird no matter what.
The Lan family all have white hair, and this color is not very good, otherwise it will make them look old. It is suitable for the elders of this age, and they have more elder demeanor, but middle-aged people like Lan Shahai look like they are of the same generation as the elders.
Lan Shahai waved his hand, "Who cares? Let them do whatever they want. Elders, please eat first."
I guess Lan Yi didn't regard them as elders who needed respect, but it didn't matter.
He will regret it sooner or later.
It was Lan San who went to call Lan Yi.
He knocked on the door for a long time. At first he thought Lan Yi didn't want to see them, but soon he found that there was no movement from inside.
The door was not locked, so he bravely pushed it open and went in.
There was no trace of Lan Yi and his companions in this room.
Lan San immediately guessed that they were out looking for the Lan Ling Bird. After all, it was not the first day that Lan Yi went out.
He first went to a place where there were people nearby and asked them if they had seen where Lan Yi had gone.
"He ran out again? I didn't see it."
"I didn't go down the mountain. I just came back from that road."
“No.”
In the past, when Lan Yi went down the mountain, someone had discovered him, but this time there was no movement at all.
Lan San felt a little uneasy, but he comforted himself that it had happened before and it would be no problem. He would go back and tell the village chief about it. He also wanted to go home and rest.
Lan Shahai's reaction was not much different from what Lan San thought, and he didn't take the three people seriously.
"No matter where they went, as long as we have the Lanling Bird, he will come back sooner or later."
The Lan clan believed in the snow leopard, a sacred beast that lived on the Jinye Mountain. This tradition has always been passed down from males to males, not females. The Lan Ling Bird was born with snow leopard ears and a tail, which violated taboos. They should have been killed on the spot. However, the sacred beast, which had not appeared for a long time, showed up and bit to death the former village chief, Lan Shahai's father, who was about to punish the village with a stick.
So the Lanling Bird survived.
It is definitely not the divine beast's fault if it appears and bites someone to death. At this critical juncture, no one dares to mention the matter of the Lan Ling Bird, for fear that the snow leopard will appear again and bite someone. So the only thing to do is to put the blame on the village chief's father.
Said he had forgotten his birth and betrayed his beliefs.
Later, they placed high hopes on Lan Yi's appearance.
If the sister with an ominous sign could win favor, then the brother must be extremely talented.
But Lan Yi's special ability has nothing to do with inheritance.
Lan Shahai already held a grudge against this family because of his father's affairs, and now he doesn't have to worry about what the villagers think.
Since Lan Yi has no inheritance, Lan Lingniao must be a bad person. He was the one who secretly instigated the expulsion of the two.
Who knew that Lan Yi's supernatural power would awaken a second time.
The last person who inherited the legacy died when the village chief Lan Shahai was still young and ignorant. It has been forty or fifty years since then.
For the sake of the clan's inheritance, Lan Yi must stay!!!
Even though Lan Shahai was itching with hatred.
Then why was he the one to receive the inheritance!!!
The village chief became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, but he was used to keeping his emotions under control, and the elders who were drinking with him at the same table did not notice.

After the sun goes down, the temperature gets even colder.
Not to mention that the altitude here is close to 4,000 meters, and the temperature on the top of the mountains is below zero degrees.
In order to facilitate movement, they don't wear thick clothes, so they need to use their special abilities to keep their bodies warm.
"My nose hurts because of the cold." Li Ke covered his nose with his hands to warm it up, and finally felt better.
It is easy to suffer from altitude sickness when the altitude is high. People like Lan Yi and his sister, who grew up here, will not suffer from it, but those who have never been to high altitudes may get into trouble.
Fortunately, they are all psychics and have good physical fitness.
"If you feel altitude sickness, don't try to hold on, tell us right away." Xi Siling wanted everyone to return safely.
This was what they had agreed upon when they formed the team in the first grade. The mission could fail, but everyone had to return safely.
But, probably everyone thinks that the mission is still important, as long as the friends can return safely.
Li Ke hurried to explain.
"It's just too cold! I don't have altitude sickness!"
He certainly hasn't had any symptoms like headache, dizziness, nausea or vomiting, and even if he did, he wouldn't admit it.
It's almost the end. If he really collapses, someone will have to take care of him and take him away. Li Ke doesn't want to be a drag on the team.
Liuhuaci can judge some basic information through a person's breathing. Li Ke did not lie. He was indeed just complaining because of the cold.
They were almost at the top of the mountain and the surrounding area. The five of them stopped to rest for a while, waiting for Liu Huaqi and Lin Zhipei to use their special powers to find some direction before making any plans.
Xi Siling began to distribute the food that had been prepared long ago to everyone. Lan Yi hadn't eaten for the whole day. He couldn't eat at all because of his sister's matter, and he didn't want to give a good face to the villagers. Now he was really hungry.
So Xi Siling gave him a lot more points.
Lin Zhipei took it with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Si Ling! But plants are rare here, I have to look for them."
"Thank you for your hard work." Xi Siling patted Lin Zipei on the shoulder, and then gave Liuhua some more.
Liu Huaqi was searching so seriously that he didn't even notice Xi Siling walking towards him.
Although he didn't say it, his concern for the Lan Ling Bird was the greatest besides Lan Yi.
It's not just because of Si Ling, nor is it just because I want to stay in the complete 618.
——
"Sister, why are you leaning so far away?"
"What, was I wrong? Classmate Aqi won."
Lan Lingniao replied with confidence, and Lan Yi could only shut up feeling aggrieved.
She is three years older than Lan Yi. Although she is Lan Yi's older sister, she acts more like Lan Yi's mother most of the time.
Maybe it’s because the elder sister is like a mother, the two of them depended on each other after leaving Jinye Mountain, and Lan Lingniao was always worried about Lan Yi’s affairs.
Fortunately, Lan Yi knew his sister's hard work since he was a child and never acted naughty.
She was very happy about Lan Yi's growth, and even happier that Lan Yi was able to make close friends.
Lan Lingniao had observed that Xi Siling was steady and reliable, and was the "center" of the children, so she felt relieved to hand Lan Yi over to him.
Li Ke is lively, kind, and outgoing, and has more in common with Lan Yi.
A Qi, who just moved into the dormitory this semester, is a good kid who loves to laugh. Although he doesn't often express his opinions, he is attentive to everything. When eating at the buffet, he brings back ice cream for everyone, and all of them are everyone's favorite flavors.
Including her, probably because I saw her preference when eating fruits before.
Therefore, Lan Lingniao also treated Liu Huaqi as his own brother and cared about him.
"Student Aqi, have you gotten used to living in their dormitory for half a year? Has Ayi bullied you?"
"No, Senior Lan Yi is very good, and the seniors are all very nice to me."
"That's good. If you have the chance, come to our house with Si Ling and A Ke. I will cook a lot of delicious food for you. Remember to tell A Yi in advance if you have any preferences."
"...Thanks."
Liu Huaqi was very surprised that the Lan Lingniao would take the initiative to care about him.
Except for Li Ke who has a normal family, everyone else in their dormitory has some problems to a greater or lesser extent. Lan Lingniao's concern is more sincere and kind than that of Liu Huaqi's parents.
Senior Lan Yi cares a lot about his sister.
Liuhuaci can empathize with Siling. If something happened to Siling...
He knew too well the pain of losing someone important, so he would never allow such pain to happen to the people he cared about.
We must find Sister Spirit Bird and bring her back safely!
The fog spread as far as possible as before, capturing all kinds of information from the flowing air.
He had seen the Lan Ling Bird, so he could naturally identify the Lan Ling Bird's aura.
Nothing was found halfway up the mountain, but here the fog finally caught a clue.
"Found it. About three kilometers ahead, there is a cave with fresh footprints!"
Lan Yi was very excited. After so many days, he finally got news about his sister.
"Very good!"
But there is no road here. How did those people get here with the Lanling Bird?
Xi Siling mentioned this out of caution, and Liu Huaqi frowned slightly.
"There are people with special abilities, and there are also wild animals roaming around. I'm afraid this is why Sister Spirit Bird can't run away."
Liuhuaqi did not notice the formed road, which meant that those people, like them, had passed through by using the psychic method of 'jumping up and down'.
After all, the Lan family has a "faith inheritance". Even if others do not inherit it, there will be powerful people with special abilities.
Lan Yi's heart was in a knot again. Although he knew that because of him, they would not hurt his sister for the time being, he would not feel at ease until his sister came back.
"Have you sensed the presence of a superpower?"
Liu Huaqi nodded affirmatively, "I can't sense any information from further away, but there were at least six people who passed by recently."
After all, this place is not suitable for living, and no one will live here permanently.
They must be waiting for Lan Yi to compromise, and life will definitely not be easy for them.
"After we finish eating, we will move closer. I guess the villagers know we have left. We have to be more cautious from now on. I don't know if the people on this mountain will know about us."
Xi Siling made arrangements quickly to calm Lan Yi's anxious mood.
At times like this, he needs to lead Lan Yi to prevent him from making wrong decisions because of his bad emotions.
Lan Yi looked at Xi Siling with gratitude. He couldn't keep thanking her on his lips at a time like this.
Li Ke also patted Lan Yi on the shoulder, as if to say:
We are all here.
Lin Zhipei also took the time to eat. Fine gray moss is a kind of plant that can grow at an altitude of 4,000 meters in Jinye Mountain. Although it is not everywhere, it is almost everywhere.
However, it looks more like a pattern on bare stone than a plant, and is really hard to spot.
The fine gray moss that Lin Zhipei talked to did not have any useful information, but it said it would ask its brothers, sisters, cousins, and uncles, and asked him to wait a moment.
He was taking a break at the time, and 77 also had a clue, so he rested and waited with peace of mind.
"I found it~ I found it~" the fine gray moss shouted loudly, "I found it~"
Lin Zhipei quickly swallowed the food in her mouth, "That's amazing! What did you find~"
