Misty forest.
Qin Shu and her group arrived before dark and camped at the edge of the forest, preparing to go in and hunt monsters tomorrow.
"Sister! Let's go in with Brother Yan to investigate the situation, and hunt monsters for toothpicks!"
A handsome disciple walked up to Qin Shu and reported in a reserved manner.
Qin Shu, who was in deep thought, came back to her senses and gave the boy a gentle smile.
"Okay, be careful."
The junior brother stared at Qin Shu's gentle smile and couldn't help blushing.
"knew!"
The junior brother was like a young boy having a love dream. He was too embarrassed to face the girl he loved and ran away.
This scene fell into Xie Lanzhi's eyes, and a playful smile appeared on his noble face, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"No matter where Ah Shu is, there are always so many peach blossoms."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the sour smell of vinegar filled the air.
Qin Shu glanced at the man and said, "No matter how many peach blossoms there are, they are not as good as you. The female disciples of Linglong Dan Pavilion can't wait to stick their eyes on you."
Xie Lanzhi tilted his head and asked in confusion: "Really? I didn't pay much attention."
Qin Shu looked at the man's innocent expression and knew that he really didn't notice that the female disciples of Dan Pavilion were distracted by him.
Qin Shu's mood inexplicably improved a lot, and she became jealous. She suddenly moved closer to Xie Lanzhi.
"We will go into the Misty Forest tonight and see if we can find a barrier teleportation formation."
In Xie Lanzhi's ears, his golden eyes sank slightly, and he nodded: "Okay——"
night.
Qin Shu, Xie Lanzhi, Yan Xishan, Xue Chen, Fan Cang, Hua Qingxuan and others were sitting in front of the fire roasting meat. The other disciples of Linglong Dan Pavilion gathered around them and roasted monster meat in front of their own fires.
Fan Cang was a little strange tonight and kept looking at Qin Shu and Xie Lanzhi.
Xue Chen saw this and asked in a low voice with ill intent, "What? You haven't given up on Qin Shu yet?"
Fan Cang rolled his eyes and stared at him like he was a fool: "Is your brain filled with water?"
Xue Chen was unhappy and sneered: "Ha! You stared at Qin Shu in front of her Taoist companions, and you were almost dying of longing. I advise you to put away your shameful thoughts and be careful not to be swallowed by the evil dragon."
The evil dragon Xie Lanzhi's ears moved slightly, and he glanced at the two of them inconspicuously.
The corners of Fan Cang's lips twitched, his face full of speechlessness and ridicule - at this moment, Xue Chen was just a big fool in his eyes.
"Ahem—" Hua Qingxuan coughed softly: "What are you guys whispering about?"
She kept winking at the two men, signaling them to restrain themselves.
Xue Chen's angry face instantly blossomed into a brilliant smile. He held Hua Qingxuan's hand and said, "I am comforting the lovelorn Fan Daoist. This guy has slept with countless women. I didn't expect that there is such a thing as true love. It's really eye-opening."
Fan Cang seemed not to have heard Xue Chen's sarcasm, and stared at Qin Shu and Xie Lanzhi with a hidden look.
Seeing that he was so stubborn, Xue Chen felt angry and annoyed, with worry in his eyes.
He suddenly stood up and pulled Fan Cang up by his sleeve.
"Come with me! I have something to tell you!"
Under the puzzled gazes of several people, Xue Chen dragged Fan Cang away.
Qin Shu and Xie Lanzhi looked at each other and whispered to each other.
"Brother Lan, I suspect Fan Cang has discovered something."
Xie Lanzhi tore the roasted monster meat into strips and put them to Qin Shu's mouth.
He was calm and spoke in a cold voice: "Well, it's okay--"
Qin Shu enjoyed being fed by the man, her eyes following the backs of Xue Chen and Fan Cang.
Xue Chen pulled the man under an ancient tree and said through gritted teeth: "Fan Cang! Are you crazy? Or do you really want to die?!"
Fan Cang rolled his eyes up to the sky and said with disdain, "Look at you, you're so stupid. Stay away from me. I'm afraid of being infected!"
Xue Chen was so angry that his soul almost left his body. He shouted angrily: "You bastard, I was afraid that you would lose your life, but you are so cruel! If we were not from Lingyun Country, do you think I would care about your death?"
The angry look on his face was unlike his usual jokes. His handsome face was slightly red with anger.
Fan Cang knew that he had teased the man too much, so he raised his hand and pinched the root of his nose, and said in a tired voice: "Didn't you notice that something was wrong with Qin Shu and Xie Lanzhi? From the time Qin Shu came out of retreat to the time we came to the Misty Forest, in the past half month, the two of them seemed too quiet. It always felt like they were holding back some big move."
After he said this, Xue Chen couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and his face became serious.
Qin Shu and Xie Lanzhi seemed really quiet, as if they were deliberately keeping a low profile.
Xue Chen's face turned stern, and he asked in a deep voice, "What did you find?"
Fan Cang shook his head: "I haven't found anything yet, I just think they are secretly preparing to do something big."
His intuition was always accurate, and this time it was particularly strong.
Xue Chen suddenly stared into the depths of the misty forest. He didn't know what was going on in his mind. He took a deep breath and asked tentatively, "Are they trying to kill me to silence me?"
"..." Fan Cang's train of thought was unable to catch up for a moment: "Who should be killed and whose mouth should be silenced?"
Xue Chen said with a pale face: "We, how did we offend her?"
Fan Cang took a deep breath: "...Are you mentally ill?"
He turned and left, fearing that he would be infected by Xue Chen's stupidity.
Xue Chen grabbed the man's sleeve and said with a smile, "Alright, I'm just teasing you. We can't stop Qin Shu from doing anything. Besides, she has a pure-blooded golden dragon Taoist partner as her backer. Why should we worry about it? Just do your own thing in an orderly manner."
Fan Cang frowned and said worriedly, "I have a bad feeling. Qin Shu has given me a very dangerous feeling these past few days. It's like the calm before the storm. Do you understand that feeling? I feel so nervous."
"I understand, I understand. After all, Qin Shu has a troublesome physique. No matter where she goes, people will pick on her for no reason. To be honest, she has been too quiet in the past half month, which makes me a little uneasy.
But we just need to remember one thing, no matter what Qin Shu wants to do, we are on the same side with her, so let it go."
Fan Cang took these words to heart and nodded: "Got it, let's go back——"
If they stay out for too long, they might be suspected.
late at night.
The leaves rustled in the wind, and light footsteps sounded at the edge of the dense forest.
The crescent moon in the night sky shone brightly and coldly, illuminating the two walking figures, and a cold wind blew through the air.
“It’s so cold—”
Qin Shu couldn't help but shiver, and her thin and slender body rubbed against Xie Lanzhi.
"My body temperature is high, so I won't feel cold if you hold me."
Xie Lanzhi took Qin Shu into his arms and walked into the depths of the silent forest.
The two of them did not act secretly, but went to the Misty Forest openly and without any concealment.
Qin Shu looked back at the camp behind her. Several disciples from Linglong Dan Pavilion were standing guard with swords in their arms. They glanced around vigilantly, and no one asked them where they were doing.
