There is a piece of grass on the edge of the rift, and there is only one old crooked neck tree found around the surrounding area. There are not many woods that can be used as fuel for campfires.
So the fire in the camp tonight was not big, and the fire flickered on and off, shining on the faces of the three hunters who were still awake at this time.
He Yongchang's thick eyebrows were frowned, and the expression on his face was uncertain.
This person is open-minded and capable.
Before such a big matter in Shennongjia, he was brave and resourceful in handling it.
He judged the situation correctly at the first time, and came to Lin Shuo early. And it was Shennongjia and his party that made Lin Shuo confirm this person's ability and pushed him to the first place in the succession sequence of the leader of Liemen.
Now that the two of them have been confiding in each other for a while, Lin Shuo is very clear about Lao He's temperament.
"Mount Tai collapsed before, but the color remains unchanged", Lao He deserves this comment.
Tonight, this person who changes color at every turn is not like his past style, but Lin Shuo also understands.
Because "worry about the world first", Lao He deserves this comment.
As a hunter who has experienced ten years in the Great Rift Valley of East Africa, Lao He is one of the people in the world who has the deepest understanding of this alien disaster in the world.
He has been hunting in the Great Rift Valley of East Africa for ten years, and he has achieved a lot. Unfortunately, East Africa was still captured by alien species that poured out continuously.
He Yongchang never mentioned this failure to anyone after returning to China, but Lin Shuo knew that it was a thorn in Lao He's heart.
Now, after the appearance of the Queen Mother of the West, another rift valley has been formed. Judging from the current trend, this place has the potential to become the second Great Rift Valley in East Africa.
With the lessons learned from East Africa, Lao He's mood at this time does not seem to be peaceful.
In addition, Lin Shuo's words just now also made this great practitioner who was one step away from reaching the end of his cultivation in the world feel a sense of powerlessness.
It's just this matter, Lin Shuo can't do anything about it.
When things come to an end, what should be broken still needs to be broken.
In the positions of Lin Shuo and He Yongchang, the leaders of the Nine Liemen naturally have greater responsibilities on their shoulders than others.
Lin Shuo reached into his pocket and took out a cigarette, and gave Lao He one, and the two brothers lit it.
Su Dongdong obviously didn't like the smell of smoke. At the same time, she seemed to have great trust in Lin Shuo's ability. After all this was said, she still thought that Lin Shuo was confident, so she climbed into the tent and went to sleep.
Not long after Su Dongdong climbed into the tent, a person crawled out from the other tent.
Archdruid, Graham.
The brown-haired young man had been preoccupied these past few days, and obviously couldn't sleep at the moment, so he sat down in front of Lin Shuo and He Yongchang, and sighed there.
Among the three young practitioners in the Holy See in Europe, this person is the strongest, so Lin Shuo regards him as more important.
Seeing the young man with his head down, Lin Shuo gave He Yongchang a wink, which meant persuasion.
He Yongchang couldn't help laughing, thinking that I just said that you were full of worries, so it's fine if you don't give me peace of mind, and pointing at me to give others peace of mind.
He just thought so in his heart, and of course he couldn't say that out of his mouth, so He Yongchang looked at Graham and began to think about how to speak.
Old He can speak English. After all, there are many colonies of the former British Empire in East Africa, and English is the official language.
It's just that it's really hard for Lao He to say this.
Everyone in the camp knew why Greenham was so virtuous, it was because of Miao Xiaoxian.
Based on the past few days, He Yongchang secretly nodded for Miao Xiaoxian and Graingham to get along well.
Give a certain amount of attention, while keeping a certain distance, the fire is just right, and the little girl handles it very maturely.
It's just that Greenham is a weird person, and unrequited love has gone mad.
This matter really needs to be persuaded, He Yongchang is not helpless, it is nothing more than a trick.
How should a little girl be chased? He Yongchang asked himself that he was better than Lin Shuo in this kind of thing, because Lin Shuo was chased by others, but he had never pursued women before and had no experience.
But this trick, He Yongchang can't do it yet, because Miao Xiaoxian is Zhang Jin's girlfriend.
Lin, Zhang, and He have been friends for generations, and He Yongchang and Zhang Jin have a strong relationship.
Since he couldn't make a move, no matter what he said at the moment, he was just pouring salt on someone's wound.
So He Yongchang glanced at Lin Shuo, shook his head and kicked the ball back.
Lin Shuo also shook his head, too lazy to waste words.
And just when the scene gradually became silent and slightly awkward, both Lin Shuo and Greenham were shocked almost at the same time, and then looked in the same direction.
That's the southwest direction from here.
He Yongchang also faintly sensed that something was wrong, and asked:
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"I'm not very good at cultivating spirits, and I don't have a strong sense of borrowing material and gossip." Lin Shuo said, "With such a long distance, I can't detect any violent natural force fluctuations. Now I can detect them. Come on, something must have happened over there."
"Where?" He Yongchang then asked.
"To the southwest, more than two hundred kilometers away." As Lin Shuo spoke, he reached into his bosom, took out the map he was carrying, and spread it out in front of He Yongchang and Graingham.
Lin Shuo and He Yongchang spoke Chinese before, and Greenham obviously couldn't understand, but now seeing the map, he quickly pointed to a place.
"Bialowieza." Lin Shuo looked at where Greenham pointed and said in English, "This is not a small forest area."
Greenham said: "There are two people fighting, and the strength of their thoughts is incredible. Since the two are at this level, I can guess one of them."
"I also guessed one of them." Lin Shuo said in a deep voice, "He is the only one who can drive the force of nature so violently. My aunt is not in this style."
"Who is it?" He Yongchang asked.
"Saint John the Blessed Knight."
"My father-in-law is Miao Guangqi."
…
That night, the battle in Bialowieza Forest Park lasted for more than 30 seconds.
In the long history of human civilization, thirty seconds is an extremely short time, so short that it can almost be ignored.
But the thirty seconds at midnight in Bialowieza are enough to be recorded in the annals of history in the equally long history of human practice.
The two people who fought against each other were not young anymore, one was eighty-six and the other was fifty-four.
After the fight between the two old men, almost half of the 1,000-square-kilometer Bialowieza Forest was lost.
Thirty seconds later, Miao Guangqi pinched St. John's throat with two fingers.
After the indiscriminate bombardment of the four natural forces of yang, bagua, wind, water, mountain, and lake, the inch of time under the full openness of yin, bagua and eight gates finally subdued the dying old man in front of him.
After one move was successful, Miao Guangqi looked at St. John in front of him, neither sad nor happy, and could not see any expression.
On the other hand, St. John had a look of hope, excitedly wanting to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he found himself speechless.
His throat was pinched, and his vocal cords were stuck.
Miao Guangqi loosened his hand slightly, and then he heard St. John say: "How is it? Did you see it?"
Miao Guangqi cleared his throat, and spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on God Blessed Knight's face: "Do you still have the guts to ask this?"
The Blessed Knight was not angry, he raised his sleeve and wiped his face: "I know that this life is hopeless, I just want you to see it, and then tell me."
Miao Guangqi finally couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, he completely let go of the God Blessed Knight's throat and said with a sigh: "This is really a beautiful woman from ancient times like a good general, and the world is not allowed to see gray hair.
You are aging too much, and the current you are at most 60% of what you were back then.
With your current level, how could you let me see that path? "
"Didn't you see it?" The God Blessed Knight was stunned and murmured.
Miao Guangqi said with a sullen face: "You really don't know how to live or die, you dared to show me your words just now, trying to induce me to attack with all your strength.
Old man, I'm not one of your religious baboons, I'm a scientist.
What happens to people when they get old, I know much better than you.
I thought that you have the inheritance of the Holy See, so you should have a different way to refine the gods, but now that you have learned it, it is nothing more than that.
If I had done my best just now, you would be ashes now, and it would take a lot of effort to collect the corpse. What else do you want to hear from me? "
"I'm now... am I so far behind?" God Blessed Knight lowered his head and asked.
"It's far behind, now Lin Shuo is more handsome than you." Miao Guangqi waved his hand.
"Oh..." God Blessed Knight was obviously a little distracted at the moment, standing there at a loss.
Miao Guangqi raised his eyes to look at him, and said in a relaxed tone, "Old man, I know you are a good person.
Back then, you were considered a noble hand to me, but later on Su Dongdong was also taken care of secretly by you, so that you can have a place in Assassin's Creed.
You are old, and now the four giants of the European Holy See, although you have the highest prestige, but the least real power, speaking is actually useless.
I, Miao Guangqi, am not an ungrateful person. You spared my life back then, and I will spare yours this time.
You go back and take care of your old age, sleep more girls at night, and don't get involved in the affairs of the Holy See in the future.
By the way, let me ask you something. "
St. John has no temper at the moment, old and weak and not skilled, and there is nothing to say.
Twenty years ago, he was in his sixties, his peak had passed, and his cultivation had begun to decline.
At that time, he saw that Miao Guangqi was only in his thirties, and he already had this ability. If he gave him a few more years, he might be able to break through that door with him.
Only then did he cherish his talents, let Miao Guangqi go, and at the same time took good care of Su Dongdong.
Otherwise, Su Dongdong's departure from the Eastern Bishop's Sect would be enough to kill him ten times.
It's a pity that time has passed. When Miao Guangqi stood at the height he once was, he was already too old.
The two of them ebbed and flowed, and now they were able to fight for 30 seconds, which was the result of Miao Guangqi's weighing.
If it is not a contest of the same level, naturally there will be no sparks, and it will be impossible to spy on the avenue of truth.
He actually knew this truth in his heart, so he pretended to be full of confidence when he first came here, thinking that at least the moment when Miao Guangqi did his best under heavy pressure, there was hope for a glimpse of the great truth.
At his age, many things have been seen through, and his mind is far beyond comparison.
As a result, although the mind is broad, it is a pity that the ability is not enough.
The reality is cruel, this crucial step to the sky is obviously not so easy to take.
At least with his current strength, he has lost the qualification to be a stepping stone for Miao Guangqi.
Those thirty seconds just now were the last masterpiece of my life. Although I didn't succeed, it was the only way to go.
Let's continue to live, the hidden injuries on his body are not too serious, and he should still be able to survive for a few years. Let's see how high these young people can reach before they die.
The old man was in a good state of mind, and now he had let go of his worries, and said, "Just ask, I'll tell you everything."
Miao Guangqi asked, "Are you the strongest in Europe now?"
"Definitely not." God Blessed Knight shook his head, "The other three guys are younger than me, and they are not weaker than me now, but they can't be too much stronger after all, they are not your opponents."
When Miao Guangqi heard this answer, he suddenly became a little less interested, and sighed:
"Hey, it seems that this road will not work."
