Fang Shan had long been accustomed to the awkward atmosphere, and was ready to make the most of it in the extreme silence.
Liu Yue himself was a difficult person to get along with. His expression turned cold and he was about to speak, but a voice intervened before he could do so: "This girl is so innocent, why should Brother Liu care about her?"
Innocent? Wei Sushen raised his eyebrows.
brilliant? Liu Yue's eyes twitched.
Fang Shan looked shy and said: "Thank you, senior, for helping me out."
A senior's cry is so sweet that you can pinch honey out of it.
Liu Yue deeply felt that he did not want to have excessive contact with these people, for fear of falling into an incredible whirlpool.
After Zhao Tianchen finished speaking for Fang Shan, he walked out with a smile on his face and a suave look.
"Although the credits for this task are low, Brother Liu won't suffer any loss if he takes it." Zhao Tianchen seemed confident in persuading him.
The mission is to hunt the fire beast. The fire beast is one of the more violent beasts and often attacks and kills humans. Not very strong, but extremely cunning, it is not easy to truly hunt.
"I happen to have a friend who needs Fire Ganoderma." Zhao Tianchen said with a smile: "If you are lucky, you can find it around the Fire Spirit Beast's lair."
"What does it have to do with me?"
Zhao Tianchen: "What if this person is Li Yue?"
Liu Yue's steps stopped as he was walking forward.
Zhao Tianchen: "Li Yue's dream demon is a fire rat, and fire Ganoderma is of great benefit to her."
From Liu Yue's hesitation, it is not difficult to see that he may be interested in Li Yue.
Fang Shan whispered to Wei Sushen: "What's so good about the courtyard flower? Don't you see, a few of the people who liked her died in the mission, so it's better to be safe because I like her."
Wei Sushen looked at him seriously, his eyes very complicated.
When Fang Shan was about to praise himself lavishly, Liu Yue suddenly asked: "When will we set off?"
Zhao Tianchen first asked Fang Shan: "How about meeting at Xishan in half an hour?"
Fang Shan: "I have no problem."
"Don't worry too much," Zhao Tianchen said, "With Brother Liu here, I will definitely be able to complete your tasks before the division starts."
Fang Shan smiled and nodded.
Through a brief contact, one can probably judge the temperament of these two people.
Liu Yue is a taciturn activist, and Zhao Tianchen is smooth in dealing with things. For example, just now, he not only won his favor, but also praised Liu Yue's strength without leaving any trace.
Fang Shan coyly smiled: "Okay."
Wei Sushen suddenly began to miss the old witch-like giggle of the old system.
…
Only when you are truly above the clouds can you feel the grandeur of the Imperial Academy. There are mountains, rivers, and lakes in the east, west, south, and north. These magnificent scenery that cannot be explained by science bloom in every inconspicuous corner of the college.
When Wei Sushen and Fang Shan arrived, several others had not yet arrived.
Fang Shan used an exaggerated exclamation tone: "Look at that mountain and that water!"
Wei Sushen said expressionlessly: "Not even as beautiful as you."
One sentence blocked the infinite emotion that Fang Shan originally wanted to express.
After Gu Fang finished admiring herself, Fang Shan began to feel melancholy again. The host seemed to have mastered 80% of the ways to deal with him. It was not a good thing to continue to be conquered like this.
After Wei Sushen made sure that the system would no longer boast, he slowly said: "Li Yue did not participate, but it is good luck to get the remaining two people to work on a task at the same time."
As he was talking, there was noise coming from behind, mixed with a lot of complaints.
The fat man trotted over carrying a basket filled with food and some common daily necessities.
Fang Shan joked: "Are you going on a trip?"
The fat man turned his face away and said nothing.
Showing weakness from the beginning can easily make people look down on him. If one of Liu Yue or Zhao Tianchen really has a problem, he can be considered as sparing a hand.
Not long after, Zhao Tianchen and Liu Yue arrived one after another. Zhao Tianchen was very attentive to Fang Shan and specifically told him what he needed to pay attention to after entering the mountain.
Fang Shan responded with a smile and looked for an opportunity to say to Wei Su Shen: "There is nothing wrong with this world looking at faces, but this is the first time I have met someone who only looks at faces."
As a system, he is very self-aware and knows what kind of person he is, especially his current concave personality, which is so delicate and artificial that even Fang Shan himself can't stand it sometimes.
However, under this setting, Zhao Tianchen actually had a good impression of him. I have to say -
Love makes people blind!
There are differences between the two sides in their evaluation of Zhao Tianchen: Fang Shan thinks that he is smooth in dealing with things, while Wei Sushen sums it up with four words: talk sweetly, talk secretly, and speak swordsmanship.
Fang Shan: "Jealousy also blinds the host's eyes."
Wei Sushen refused to argue. Zhao Tianchen was very experienced and took out a map: "Xishan is considered less dangerous, but we cannot take it lightly."
As he spoke, he circled a few places on the map: "These are areas suitable for fire beasts to live."
Wei Su Shen: "Search separately, or form a team?"
Before Zhao Tianchen could give an answer, the fat man said anxiously: "We will survive as a group, but we will die as a lone ranger!"
At the fork in the road of life, he took his fear of death to the extreme.
Liu Yue actually preferred to act alone, but he did not show it directly. After all, they were all part of the academy. He had little experience in the remaining two tasks, so it was unjustifiable to ignore them completely.
Seeing that he had no intention of expressing his thoughts, Zhao Tianchen smiled and said, "Then let's act together."
Before actually entering Xishan, Fang Shan tugged on Zhao Tianchen's sleeve: "You must protect me when the time comes."
Zhao Tianchen spoke righteously: "Defend the goddess!"
Fang Shan walked behind him with a smile on his face, but communicated with Wei Su Shen with his eyes... This man's preferences were a bit scary.
Wei Sushen glanced at Zhao Tianchen, who was leading the way, and then at Liu Yue, who was too silent. He narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering what he was thinking.
Essentially, both Wei Sushen and Liu Yue don't like to talk. If they were doing tasks alone, they would only have conversations under two circumstances:
First, shout for help,
Second, if something happens to a teammate, say it’s a good journey.
Although the fat man was greedy for life and afraid of death, he played a very good role in adjusting the situation at this time. With him chattering non-stop, the atmosphere was always in a relatively active state.
There are a lot of dead branches and leaves on the ground, which will make a creaking sound when stepped on. It is very interesting, but it is definitely not a good thing in the vast woods. Sudden noises can easily lead to potential dangers.
Liu Yue suddenly stopped and looked around with alert eyes: "It's too quiet."
After walking such a long way, I didn't even encounter a venomous snake, which was very unusual.
The fat man couldn't help but summon the dream demon to guard beside him. The other two also did the same thing.
However, Fang Shan disappeared directly, and only the lingering voice echoed in the air: "Let me hide."
Liu Yue couldn't help but said: "If the Dream Demon is not used for fighting, it has no meaning in its existence."
Wei Sushen said calmly: "He has."
At the moment when Liu Yue frowned, Wei Sushen said calmly: "It's enough that he is responsible for beauty."
“…”
After walking a little further, it was still calm. Fang Shan was restless and soon appeared again. He changed his clothes again, more luxurious than before.
Such a palace-style skirt makes it difficult for ordinary people to walk, and it is difficult to imagine what the scene would be like in battle.
Zhao Tianchen greeted him from time to time, during which the fat man reminded Fang Shan in a low voice: Zhao Tianchen is a famous playboy.
They were heading north now. Wei Sushen winked at Fang Shan and looked to the west. The latter understood and suddenly jumped up and caught a small coiled snake from the tree.
The little snake's yellow eyes revealed a hint of confusion... It was not prepared to attack at all, so why was it treated unfairly
"Hiss." The sound came not from the snake's mouth, but from Fang Shan's throat.
The little snake spit out the snake tongue and hissed twice.
Fang Shan uttered a series of hissing syllables, and the little snake's tail curled around his fingers.
The fat man was shocked: "Are you talking to a snake?"
Wei Sushen made a quiet gesture: "Communicating with animals is one of his powers."
At this time, even Liu Yue was surprised. It turned out that this dream demon was not as useless as imagined.
Fang Shan threw the snake back into the tree and his eyes became solemn: "It said it would be dangerous to go further and advised us to go east."
The fat man recalled it for a while and said promptly: "There are also several fire beast lairs there on the map, why not change the route."
He cherishes his life, but he doesn't want to have an accident happen just after the summoning is successful.
Zhao Tianchen disagreed: "The poisonous snake is cunning, and what it says may be lies."
Fang Shan said at the right time: "I'm not sure about the north. There may be fraud in the east, so go to the west."
This proposal seems to be the safest at present, and no one has any objections.
Fang Shan and Wei Sushen deliberately slowed down their pace and walked at the end of the team.
"What's to the west?" Fang Shan smiled half-heartedly, causing him to make up such a ridiculous lie.
Wei Sushen: "Zhao Tianchen seems to be deliberately leading us to one place."
According to the map, there are several rapid rivers in the north and a canyon in the middle. It is not a good choice for first timers.
Regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, Liu Yue was also very strange. From the beginning to the end, there was a faint hint of hostility on his body.
Wei Sushen was just testing it out. At present, it seems that Zhao Tianchen does not see much fluctuation in the sudden change of direction.
The fat man had a keen sense and noticed that the atmosphere was a little different, so he spoke much less often than before.
In the woods, any disturbance deserves attention.
The fat man's pupils dilated slightly: "There is..."
Before he could finish his words, Liu Yue's ears twitched, he pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed into the bushes as fast as lightning. A wild boar roared. Liu Yue didn't know what he was thinking. He pulled out the blade that was about to penetrate deeply without killing the wild boar. He took it back and came to Fang Shan: "Try to see if you can get any useful information out of its mouth."
Fang Shan was shocked. Talking to animals was just a skill made up to help Wei Su Shen achieve his goal. He actually took this weird thing to heart.
However, his face was very calm, and he pretended to squat in front of the ferocious and ugly wild boar, and he grunted like a pig.
The boar howled.
Fang Shan continued to hum.
As time passed, Liu Yue couldn't help but interrupt their communication: "What did it say?"
Fang Shan: "It said to me, 'You are so beautiful.'"
Liu Yue's expression solidified: "Be serious."
Fang Shan stood up and spread his hands helplessly: "I told the truth."
