"An Fei, we should be safe now, right?" Chris Ding said with a smile.
From dusk to the branches above the moon, everyone used the floating technique to travel dozens of miles in one go. They have truly entered the heart of the Kram Forest. If you want to find more than a dozen people in a place like this, you will undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack. Things are easier said than done!
At this moment, everyone fell on a huge old tree. It was hard to see how tall and thick the tree was under their feet in the dark night, but the crown of this tree was very strange, and its branches looked like an overturned umbrella. , neatly stretched out in all directions, leaving a small flat field in the middle. Compared with the trunk, the branches appear too small and uncoordinated. They must have been struck by lightning in the past, or lost most of their branches and leaves due to other reasons, and later relied on their tenacious vitality to regain their branches. A canopy grew.
Although the flat area on the canopy was not big, it was just enough for most people to squeeze together. An Fei insisted that everyone not go to the ground. This time, no one raised any objections. Everyone was consciously looking for their place.
"An Fei, why don't you speak? What are you thinking about?" Seeing that An Fei couldn't answer, Chris Ding asked curiously.
"Safe...maybe." An Fei smiled. As a leader, he can only bear all the pressure alone. He cannot express his worries, otherwise these people will be overwhelmed. When they first encountered the Knights of the Holy Flame Legion, an undead mage, a swordsman, and a magician suddenly took action and helped them out. An Fei didn't think this was a good thing. They appeared next to me without realizing it. So, where are they now? Are you still hiding in the dark
"An Fei, you should go and rest too. I'm on duty today." Chris Ding said.
"No, I'm not tired yet."
"That's okay! You haven't had any rest, so go ahead."
"My physical fitness is much stronger than yours. If I get tired, I will naturally rest. But you, on the other hand, should pay attention to your body."
"I'm not tired, and... can't sleep." Chris Ding looked around: "An Fei, let's go have a chat?"
"Okay." An Fei smiled, knowing that Chris Ding should have something to say.
Chris Ding took An Fei and floated to a nearby tree. An Fei leaned there with his back on a branch. Chris Ding sat next to An Fei, staring blankly at the dark forest. The low roars and roars of the beasts remind people that this is not a safe paradise, and there are also various threats here.
"What do you want to say?" An Fei said lightly.
"An Fei, I feel... you are a person who hides a lot of secrets, right?" Chris Ding said with a smile.
"Who doesn't have secrets? Isn't it the same with you?"
"Me? What secrets can I have? Haha..." Chris Ding smiled and shook his head.
"I heard from Zubin that you are also a commoner?"
"Well, what? Do you still care about my identity?"
"Do you still remember when you went home with me? A carriage passed in front of us, and you recognized the person in the carriage. He was the great swordsman Beeri. I can tell that you knew Beeri before. Here, and Bailey also knows you, his eyes are smiling at you." An Fei's expression was very dull, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing, without any pride in exposing other people's lies: "At that time, you It’s very strange, why did Beeri come back? You also said that Beeri is the leader of the Death Roar Legion and has a heavy responsibility. He will not come back unless there is something particularly important. Finally, you asked me to strictly observe I promised you this secret, and I did it. I never talked about it with anyone, not even Ernest."
"..." Chris Ding looked at An Fei blankly, not knowing what to say.
"Not only do you two know each other, but you also have a certain understanding, otherwise you wouldn't be so surprised, right?"
"An Fei... I... I don't even know what to say." Chris Ding smiled bitterly: "You are such a terrible person. You can tell so many things from this little thing."
"What? Did I guess wrong?" An Fei smiled.
"No, you guessed it right, I... do have a secret, but I'm sorry, I can't tell you." Chris Ding sighed.
"I didn't ask about your secret. What I mean is that everyone has the right to decide whether to reveal the secret. I won't force you, and I also hope you won't force me." An Fei smiled: " For example, Zubin also has secrets, but I have never asked. Maybe one day, when he regards me as a friend who shares life and death with me, he will tell me."
"An Fei, you are amazing, you choked me up." Chris Ding said with a smile.
"Haha...I'm a little curious. What do you want to know?"
"Will you answer me if I ask?"
"How can you know if I will answer if you don't ask?" An Fei asked.
An Fei's rhetorical question, which was like a meditation machine, once again choked Chris Ding. Poor Chris Ding rolled his eyes: "So... An Fei, if you don't blame me for being too reckless, I will ask."
"You can ask, but I have the right to answer or refuse to answer."
"It's up to you." Chris Ding smiled bitterly and shook his head: "An Fei, you are a swordsman. I am very surprised. Why do you want to be the teacher's student? Your swordsmanship...how to say, I have never seen it before Have you ever had a swordsmanship as terrifying as yours, um... ferocious! Yes, your swordsmanship is so ferocious! If you are willing to learn fighting spirit from Mr. Ernest, you will definitely become a very great great swordsman! I am very surprised. , Why are you willing to learn magic? You must know that there has never been a peak powerhouse among those who cultivate both magic and martial arts in the Pan-Continent."
"I can answer this question." An Fei smiled and said, "I like it."
"..." Chris Ding was stunned for a moment: "Is it that simple?"
"Isn't this enough? Because I like it, that's why I learn magic from Mr. Sol. Don't think too much, Chris Ding, I have no other intentions."
"An Fei, it's not that I think too much, it's that you misunderstood me. I just feel sorry for you. Don't you want to become a peak powerhouse?"
"The peak expert..." An Fei smiled and shook his head: "I'm too tired." This is An Fei's truth. When he first started practicing martial arts, he never expected to become the best master in the world. He just hoped that he could become the best master in the world. His skills are demonstrated with perfect technique.
"If it were someone else who said this, I would definitely say that he is a person with no ambitions, but you... don't look like that. At least you are much better than me." Chris Ding looked at An Fei curiously: "You really Never thought about it?"
"I didn't expect it." An Fei replied: "What? Do you want to become a peak powerhouse?"
"I think, when I was very young, I hoped that one day, I would become the most powerful person in the Pancontinent." Chris Ding nodded: "Someone said to me, people must be ambitious, ambition can It gives people upward motivation, but as a person, you must control your ambitions and clearly distinguish what should be done and what should not be done. If the ambition is out of control, he will become a crazy person!"
An Fei was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "The person who said these words is a respected wise man."
"Yes, I respect him very much." Chris Ding smiled.
"Do you meet this wise man often?" An Fei asked seemingly unintentionally.
Chris Ding glanced at An Fei sideways, and a smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth: "Well, An Fei, you are tempting me again. Chatting with you is really dangerous! Last time, I just met Bailey and accidentally said a word, and you can guess so many things. If you continue to ask me like this, you will find out all my secrets!"
"You are overthinking it. I was just asking casually." Of course An Fei would not admit it.
"Ha...do you think I will believe it?"
"Believe it or not, I said at the beginning that I will not explore your secrets, and you should not explore mine." An Fei argued.
"Okay, okay, let's change the topic." Chris Ding smiled.
"Niya looks very pitiful now." An Fei said suddenly.
Chris Ding looked back and saw that Niya was sitting alone on a branch under the moonlight. She was a girl, so it was naturally impossible for her to be crowded together with everyone. The night was very cold. Although she was protected by a magic shield, The magic shield could not block the desolation in her mood. Niya took out a few pieces of clothing from the package and put them on her body. In this way, she still shrank into a ball and looked very pitiful. .
"Actually... Niya is a good girl, but her personality is a bit tricky." Chris Ding said.
"I didn't say she was a bad girl." An Fei smiled and said, "Chris Ding, how many years have you lived in the teacher's house?"
"About ten years."
"Growing up with Niya? Oh..." An Fei lengthened his voice.
"What are you thinking about?" Chris Ding couldn't help but rolled her eyes at An Fei: "An Fei, don't think about it. I have regarded Niya as my sister since I was a child, and it is the same now."
"Ha... do you think I will believe it?" An Fei imitated Chris Ding's tone and said: "Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a man who buried three hundred silver coins in the ground, but he He was afraid that others would discover his private collection, so he put a sign on the ground that read: There are no three hundred silver coins in this place. Do you know the name of the story? It is called There is no three hundred taels of silver in this place!"
"Haha... How could there be such a stupid person! I... OK, are you mocking me?" Chris Ding finally realized.
