The next second, the picture on the screen disappeared—Zuo Xingping made the decision to end the video.
Jiang Mian silently put down her phone. She was in a different place from Tianshi Dad. Even though she was anxious, she had nothing to do. The only thing she could do was to calmly wait for Tianshi Dad to call.
She didn't want to take a bath at the moment, so she packed up in a hurry and sat on the sofa waiting for Tianshi's father's call.
Unexpectedly, the doorbell suddenly rang. Jiang Mian frowned, stood up and walked to the door. Before she could open the door, the little paper man running from the wall kicked off his feet, jumped on the doorknob, twisted his body, and opened the door for her.
Xiaobai's strength seemed to be much stronger.
The thought flashed just before, and there was a huge boom in flames, followed by the sound of a silver fox beating: "My master, please accept my love for you."
Silver Fox moved away the red rose, revealed his face, and smiled coquettishly and charmingly at Jiang Mian.
Jiang Mian: "..."
"Master, don't you like it?" Silver Fox raised his eyebrows slightly, "Women like men to send flowers the most, especially such a big bouquet of roses, it is very romantic."
Jiang Mian's lips curled up: "Are you a man?"
Silver Fox: "..."
"Master, I bought it especially for you." The man's handsome face was filled with grievances.
Jiang Mian stared at him expressionlessly, and Yinhu had no choice but to take away the expression on his face and let himself become normal.
Just as he was about to speak, there was a "ding" and the elevator door opened. Silver Fox subconsciously turned his head and met a pair of dark eyes.
Qi Yanshu's eyes passed over the rose in Yinhu's hand. The latter felt that his eyes were as cold as a knife. He couldn't help but tighten his hand holding the flower, trying to suppress the fear of this man.
"Mianmian." Noticing that Jiang Mian's face looked strange, Qi Yanshu frowned slightly, "What happened?"
Qi Yanshu did not live in Tianjingyuan during this period, but in Lanyuan. Jiang Mian checked out from Tingyuge and the manager informed him.
He was silent for a while and chose to return to Tianjingyuan.
"Nothing." Jiang Mian said.
Qi Yanshu looked at her without saying anything. Under his gaze, Jiang Mian felt a little uncomfortable, as if she was being unfilial by hiding from him.
Wait... No, unfilial
Who knows where this idea came from. Jiang Mian rubbed his eyebrows and saw that Yin Hu's eyes were filled with fear of Qi Yanshu. After thinking about it, he said to Yin Hu, "You should leave first."
Silver Fox couldn't wait to put the rose into Jiang Mian's hand, turned around and left quickly.
Qi Yanshu frowned, paused for a second, and said indifferently: "You are too indulgent to him."
Jiang Mian was slightly surprised. It was normal for Qi Yanshu to know that Yinhu was the fox who had been with her before, but the meaning of his words was that he seemed to know that Yinhu was controlled by her.
Before Jiang Mian could speak, Qi Yanshu had already taken the rose from her hand, threw it in the aisle, took Jiang Mian's hand and entered the room, then closed the door.
A series of movements were performed smoothly, and by the time Jiang Mian reacted, Qi Yanshu had already pulled her and stood in the living room: "You don't look good, what's wrong?"
Jiang Mian opened her lips and wanted to shake her head, but gave up after a moment and whispered: "Dad is trapped."
Qi Yanshu asked calmly: "Which father?"
"Uh..." Jiang Mian said, "Dad Zuo."
She told Qi Yanshu everything she knew, and finally lowered her eyes: "I don't know which mountain he is on, and I don't know if he can..."
She only glanced at the snake. Although she didn't take a closer look, she guessed from the size of the snake's head that the snake was at least thirty meters long, or even longer.
This is not an ordinary beast, it should be called a monster. Logically speaking, this kind of monster should not exist in this world, but it is common in the world of immortal cultivation.
But this world lacks spiritual energy, and the giant python can only grow so big and live for an unknown number of years.
In her previous life, she could kill a monster of this level with just a wave of her hand, but now that she encountered one, she had no choice but to run away.
Tianshi Dad is only good at Taoism, but his fighting ability is not strong. When he encounters a giant python...
Jiang Mian began to wonder what kind of world this was and where Tianshi's father had gone.
Her irritability overflowed from her eyes. Qi Yanshu looked at her and sighed, holding her shoulders and sitting on the sofa. His voice was calm and convincing: "Senior Brother Wuzhen is not low in strength, and he is also Zhaoruo." Master Xuanji of the temple cannot be defeated, so there is no problem in escaping."
He paused.
Jiang Mian noticed his expression and thought: "Uncle Qi, do you know where dad is?"
Seeing that her face was full of worry for Zuo Xingping, Qi Yanshu's eyes dimmed slightly and he said, "If I guessed correctly, they entered the forbidden area by mistake and were trapped inside and couldn't get out."
Jiang Mian: "?"
Qi Yanshu raised his fingertips and touched the end of his eyes: "My curse comes uncontrollably."
This was equivalent to admitting that he knew where Zuo Xingping was.
Qi Yanshu entered the forbidden area and came out alive. Although he was cursed, he was freed from the inevitable death at the age of thirty.
It can be seen that although this forbidden area is full of dangers, it also has high rewards.
Jiang Mian was thoughtful.
At this moment, Tianshi's father called, but he didn't make a video call.
Jiang Mian's heart sank.
As soon as the call was connected, Zuo Xingping's angry voice came over: "Mianmian, I'm fine."
At the most dangerous moment, the little paper figures came into play. They were strung together into a rope and struggled to wrap the python's mouth, giving Zuo Xingping and Xuanji time to react.
The two of them knew that the centipede last time was a child compared to the giant python. If they couldn't defeat such a big guy with thick skin and flesh, they would of course run away.
They ran quickly in the jungle until they were sure that the python was not chasing them. Then they found a towering tree and climbed up.
The crisis was over, Zuo Xingping quickly called Jiang Mian to report that he was safe.
Don't let your baby girl worry.
Without the firelight, only sporadic moonlight shone through the gaps between the trees. Even if he made a video call, he couldn't see clearly, so Zuo Xingping just made a phone call.
"The monk and I stayed in a big tree, which was very safe."
Tianshi's father was not good at lying, and judging from his voice, it didn't look like he was injured, which made Jiang Mian feel at ease.
Zuo Xingping didn't dare to say anything more and ended the call in a hurry after reporting that he was safe.
Firstly, the battery of the mobile phone is low, and secondly, I am afraid that the sound will attract other things. There is everything in this dense forest.
Where they rested before, Zuo Xingping set up a formation around them, but the giant python quietly broke through the formation, which was very clever.
Jiang Mian put down her phone. Although nothing happened to Tianshi's father, the news brought by Qi Yanshu was not good.
They entered a forbidden area by mistake. As long as it is a forbidden area, it is not that easy to break into - this is the experience Jiang Mian gained in his previous life.
Qi Yanshu came out of the forbidden area, indicating that he knew how to leave. Jiang Mian raised his head and instantly met Qi Yanshu's eyes.
He kept looking at himself, and his eyes were different from the gentle kindness before. There seemed to be something more... Jiang Mian frowned slightly.
She didn't say anything, and neither did Qi Yanshu. The two looked at each other, and the air became quiet.
In the cat's nest, the fat cat was so frightened by the little paper man that he huddled up and dared not move. He opened his green eyes and looked here without blinking.
After a while, when Jiang Mian decided to speak, she heard Qi Yanshu sigh and say, "I will go to the forbidden area to bring Senior Brother Wuzhen out."
"Uncle Qi, I didn't..."
"I know." Qi Yanshu stared at her, as if he wanted to see into her heart, "You want me to tell you the location of the forbidden area and how to leave it, and then go to the forbidden area yourself, right?"
Jiang Mian was silent, she did think so.
Qi Yanshu stood up: "Your strength is low. Going to the forbidden area will not help you, and it will easily delay you. I will just do this."
Jiang Mian: "..."
She had no rebuttal.
In this world, Jiang Mian's strength is strong enough compared to ordinary people, but compared to those who have been cultivating Taoism since childhood, it is not comparable.
Firstly, there is a lack of spiritual energy in the world, and secondly, she has poor qualifications. Jiang Mian's cultivation relies on what she has accumulated in her previous life, but due to physical limitations, it is difficult to improve even if she wants to.
She had quietly checked the spiritual roots of Master Tianshi and Qi Yanshu before, and they both had a single spiritual root.
If they hadn't already laid the foundation and the cultivation system was different from the world of cultivating immortals, she almost couldn't help but want to pass on the skills from her previous life to Master Tian.
"But..." Jiang Mian also stood up, how could she let Qi Yanshu take risks.
As soon as the words came out, he was interrupted by Qi Yanshu: "Your father is also my senior brother."
Jiang Mian had no choice but to say something else: "Are you going to rush there right away?"
"Yeah." Qi Yanshu nodded lightly.
Jiang Mian: "Where are you?"
Qi Yanshu did not answer.
Jiang Mian pursed her lips. She actually disliked owing favors. Favors represent cause and effect. Favors can be returned, but cause and effect are difficult to understand.
She knew very well that the main reason why Qi Yanshu went to the forbidden area was because of her.
Moreover, Qi Yanshu still has a curse on him.
Her eyebrows knitted together little by little.
"What do you need to bring, can I have someone prepare it, such as weapons?" She couldn't find the right words, so she had to say it dryly.
Qi Yanshu shook his head, with a little smile in his eyes: "Have some confidence in me."
He stretched out his slightly cold fingertips, brushed between Jiang Mian's brows, and smoothed the slight wrinkles for her: "Mianmian, I hope you can call me 'Dad' when I come back."
Jiang Mian blinked: "Okay."
Since he wanted to be her father so much, the worst he could do was have another father.
Thinking of something, Jiang Mian picked up her bag and handed the laser gun and silver wire to Qi Yanshu: "Maybe it will be helpful."
Qi Yanshu didn't refuse. He looked at Jiang Mian restrainedly and left immediately.
He didn't even go back to his home opposite, but took the elevator downstairs. When he came out of the unit building, he saw the silver fox squatting by the flower bed, holding a branch in his hand to tease the ants.
When a group of ants moved, he used branches to either block their path or disperse them, causing them to circle around in a hurry.
Jiang Mian gave him an order not to kill any living being without reason, including humans and animals.
Therefore, he can only "funny".
The hairs behind his ears suddenly stood up. Silver Hu looked back, forced himself not to move, and looked at Qi Yanshu warily.
He glanced around with his peripheral vision, looking for an escape route.
"Why did you give her a rose?" The faint voice brought overwhelming pressure.
Silver Fox moved his hands. He swore that if he said one wrong word, the man in front of him would attack him.
Sweat dripped from his forehead, and Yin Hu held back two words: "... good-looking."
The murderous intention faded away.
Qi Yanshu was noncommittal: "Come with me."
"My master is not you."
Qi Yanshu suddenly stretched out his fingertips and touched his chest. The silver fox's expression changed, and the next second, a silver fox with beautiful fur appeared on the spot.
"Follow up."
Silver Fox: "..."
There is a saying XXX that I don’t know whether to say or not.
