Chapter 162 Glowing
Nan Xiao landed in a very abstract position, headfirst, hands and feet exposed. She supported herself on the ground with both hands, and in an extremely unsightly position, finally freed her head from the pile of dry grass.
Then he randomly plucked two handfuls of dry grass, feathers and leaves from his head.
She looked around, looking for Lu Huai and the other man.
At this time, there was movement from the pile of dry grass not far away, and two people poked their heads out one in front and one behind.
The three of them looked at each other and saw that they were all there. That was good. After all, they had lived again.
Lu Huai used his hands and feet to climb out first, and Ye Wumian followed closely behind.
Lu Huai clenched his fist and stretched out his hand, saying excitedly, "Guess what I have in my hand?"
Ye Wumian half-believed and half-doubted, "Could it be a white jade pearl?"
Lu Huai exclaimed: "Third Brother, you have become smarter."
Ye Wumian: “…”
Junior brother, you are so presumptuous.
Lu Huai opened his palm, and a white, slightly transparent bead lay quietly in his palm.
Nan Xiao picked it up, took a look at it, and then put it back.
"Really? Where did you get it?"
Lu Huai pointed to the pile of dry grass below and said, "It's right here. When I fell in, I vaguely saw something glowing, so I reached out and picked it up."
Ye Wumian put his arm around Lu Huai's shoulders and praised him, "Junior brother, you're great."
Nan Xiao said, "Put it away first, and then see if there are any more around."
"Xiaoxiao, I'll put the beads here with you."
Nan Xiao waved his hand and refused: "No, you keep it and give it to the eldest brother when you find him."
She had offended many people before, and it was not ruled out that someone was deliberately trying to get her out of the game under the pretext of stealing the beads. It would be really unsafe for her if that happened to her.
Although both the third senior brother and Lu Huai are not very cunning, Lu Huai is better than the third senior brother. He is not easily deceived and runs faster. For now, it is safest to leave it with him.
"OK."
After saying that, Lu Huai wanted to put the beads into the storage ring, but found that he couldn't put them in at all. After trying many times without success, he began to wonder if there was something wrong with his storage ring.
"I wonder why it won't fit in."
Nan Xiao heard his voice, stopped exploring the surroundings, and asked, "What's the problem?"
Lu Huai said helplessly: "I don't know, I can't put this bead into the storage ring. It was clearly working fine when I put spiritual plants in it before."
Nan Xiao stretched out her hand: "Let me try."
"Give"
Nan Xiao took the bead and found that it couldn't fit into her storage ring, so she placed the bead in Ye Wumian's hand.
"Third Brother, you try it too."
After a while, Ye Wumian also shook his head: "No."
Nan Xiao pondered for a moment, squatted down, picked up a branch at random, and put it directly into the storage ring without any obstruction.
She chuckled and said to herself, "I see."
Ye Wumian asked, "Little Junior Sister, what do you know?"
Nan Xiao explained to the two of them, "It's nothing. There's nothing wrong with our storage ring. The problem is with this bead. Those old men must have tampered with it, so it can't be put into the storage ring."
Come to think of it, if it can be put into the storage ring, how can others grab it? You can't just erase everyone's mark, right? That would incur public anger.
She figured out the key point and said to Lu Huai, "Junior brother, just put the beads in your pocket."
"good."
Nan Xiao threw the stick in his hand, patted the dust off his hand and said, "This place looks like the lair of some monster. We have searched the surrounding area, but there is no second bead. We should leave quickly. If another Nascent Soul monster comes, it will be too exciting."
Sometimes life doesn't need to be so exciting.
Ye Wumian echoed, "Junior Sister is right. There are quite a few broken shells of monster eggs on this grass pile. It's possible that this monster has taken its young out to forage for food. They really can't stay here for long."
As the three of them talked, they started to walk out. Nan Xiao glanced around habitually, and finally his eyes fell on Lu Huai's waist.
She asked curiously, "What did you put here?"
Lu Huai replied: "Beads."
Ye Wumian also noticed the bright light on Lu Huai's waist at this time.
He said, "Wow, little brother, your waist is glowing."
Lu Huai looked down and said, "Oh, it's true."
Nan Xiao: “…”
I wonder what they are excited about?
She thought she understood.
As long as this bead is worn on the body, it will emit a light, which is equivalent to telling others, I have a bead, come and grab it from me.
Doesn’t this design force people to commit crimes?
Nan Xiao told the two of them about this so that they could be mentally prepared.
After listening to Nan Xiao, the two stopped laughing.
Ye Wumian was a little worried: "Junior brother, how about you give me the beads and leave them with me?"
Lu Huai refused: "It's okay, I run fast, most people can't catch me."
"Okay."
The few people had just left the pile of dry grass less than ten meters away.
The sky, which was originally clear and filled with floating white clouds, suddenly darkened.
The three of them looked up subconsciously.
They all said in unison: "What a big bird."
When its wings spread out, they covered at least half of the mountain.
Ye Wumian was the first to react. He grabbed one with each hand and ran desperately: "Damn, little brother, little sister, run quickly, this is a demon beast at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage..."
More powerful than that snake.
Nan Xiao: “…”
How lucky is she?
It starts on a cliff, then encounters a Nascent Soul snake demon, and now encounters a flying beast at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Is there any hope for survival?
If she was not sure that she had not had any contact with Shen Chaochao, she would have suspected that her luck had been stolen by Shen Chaochao.
So unlucky.
Even though Ye Wumian's legs were stretched out in a circle, he was still pitifully slow in the eyes of the monster.
The monster lunged forward, folded its wings, and grabbed three people with one claw.
Nan Xiao immediately took out his sword and started slashing at the monster's claws.
Master Nan, who had been busy for a while, tickled the monster. She simply put away her sword and pretended to be dead on its claws, letting it do whatever it wanted.
At worst, in eighteen years, I’ll be a hero again.
The three of them waited for a while and found that the monster didn't seem to want to kill them.
Could it be that they're storing food? Then they could find a chance to escape...
Just as they were lost in thought, the monster threw them back into their lair. They were upside down, eating a mouthful of dry grass. Just as they sat up, the monster folded its wings and lunged down again.
Ye Wumian's pupils dilated as he kept muttering, "It's over, it's over. Does this monster want to crush us to death?"
"Junior sister, junior brother, I will buy you some time, crush the jade token quickly..." Let's go.
Before he could finish his words, the scene before him made his mind freeze.
The monster did not crush them to death as Ye Wumian had expected. Instead, it retracted its claws and wings and nestled inside with a look of comfort and enjoyment.
Nan Xiao and the other two were circled by it with its wings, and it rubbed them affectionately with the soft hair on its face.
Three people: “…”
What is going on?
The three of them were on edge and waited for a long time, but the monster did not make any further move.
········
People outside were amused by what they saw.
"Hahaha, it's a matter of fate. No one can escape this fate. Nan Xiao is usually so arrogant, but now he has become food for the monster."
"Even in this situation, they still don't want to send the jade token. Are they really planning to wait for death?"
"Perhaps, he was frightened silly by the monster and forgot about the jade token."
“········”
