Time seemed to pass continuously, but in fact it was very slow. From the time Xu Yourong carried him to the forest to the end of this dangerous battle, it didn't take too long. The morning sun in Zhou Garden was still not far above the horizon. The morning light fell into the forest together, and was cut into pieces of various shapes, slowly rolling the fallen leaves on the ground, making rustling noises, and emitting various lights.
Chen Changsheng looked into the distance and remained silent.
He didn't have Zhexiu's natural sensitivity to danger, and he didn't have Xu Yourong's ability to use his life astrolabe to deduce the danger ahead. He didn't see any figures in the distant morning light, nor did he perceive any danger, let alone any enemies. But he just felt that it was too quiet over there, and yeah, quiet wasn't a good enough reason, but he didn't feel right.
There are three thousand roads, and he only cultivates one door to suit his heart. That pair of demon beauties and strong men must still be chasing and killing him in the Zhou Garden, and he may also meet a ghastly human practitioner like that old monster, and he has no ability to protect himself now, he can only trust his own feelings , I believe that the only way I have practiced for more than ten years.
So without any hesitation, he turned around and walked towards the other side of the woods. His expression was a little hurried, but his footsteps could not be hasty, because he was seriously injured at this time, and he still had to carry the girl in white on his back. The more important reason was that his current The body is much colder than normal, breathing and heartbeat are at least one-third slower than usual, the snow and frost on the eyebrows and temples reappear, and the dew on the clothes has formed countless small snow particles, which are blown behind by the morning wind They condensed quickly again, and then were blown down by the morning wind, one after another falling behind him, leaving a clear trace in the forest.
Not long after he left the woods, Nan Ke and the old man playing the piano came here with a slightly cold breath. Her eyes followed the remaining snow and frost on the surface of the fallen leaves, and moved to the distance. Her eyes were so sharp, and she got enough information from those snow and frost footprints just by looking casually. Fleeing with Xu Yourong on his back, his injuries were obviously not healed, and his steps seemed a little sluggish.
A hint of confusion appeared between her slightly wide-set eyes. According to her two maids, Chen Changsheng was seriously injured last night and was on the verge of death. How could he recover in such a short time? At the same time, her consciousness sensed the existence of Bai Hai's corpse in the cliff cave, but at this moment, she didn't have time to pay attention to what happened before, so she directly stretched her two arms into the air beside her.
The two demon beauties turned into two clear lights and disappeared without a trace. A pair of green wings appeared behind her, accompanied by a gust of wind, she disappeared in the forest. The old man playing the piano looked in the direction outside the forest and confirmed that the mysterious and dangerous grassland was not far away. He couldn't help frowning slightly, guessing what might happen next, but he had no other choice but to follow.
…
…
The forest is the shore, and before the shore is a lake of water. The blue reeds occupy all the sight lines, as if they are going to spread to the sky, but in fact, beyond the reeds is the grassland. That cold breath helped Chen Changsheng to suppress his injuries, and at the same time, it also caused his metabolism to drop sharply. At this time, his heartbeat and breathing were too slow, and he naturally walked very slowly. It took a long time to get here. .
He didn't know that not long ago, Xu Yourong carried him out of the reeds on the opposite side. He only knew that if he continued to move forward, he might stray into that terrible grassland. However, he had no other choice but to follow along. With my own mind, I walked back to the wetland along the way I came here, and my body walked in the water, bringing out some thin ice.
He had just walked into the reeds, and before he had time to think about whether to venture forward or turn around, the wind from the shore told him not to think any more.
A cold breeze appeared, and the green light took away all the colors of the reeds and trees.
A little girl with an indifferent expression appeared on the shore, looking at him expressionlessly, like looking at an ant.
Looking at her disheveled hair and blood-stained clothes, especially her eyebrows and eyes, Chen Changsheng was startled, as if he was a little surprised by what he saw. In addition, he didn't hold the hilt of the short sword, because he knew that there was too much difference in strength between himself and this demon powerhouse, and the battle was meaningless, so he remained silent and appeared calm.
He has always been very calm and composed, no matter what kind of major event he encounters, he will never be depressed or panic. This kind of character traits gives him an aura far beyond his age, and at the same time, it often surprises people. Xu Yourong is like this, The same was true for Nan Ke at this time. She did not expect that this was the rumored young man who was favored by the Pope, and asked, "Are you Chen Changsheng?"
Chen Changsheng had never met the other party before, and he didn't know that this little girl was the most beloved daughter of the Demon Lord, but yesterday at the lakeside, he heard Zhe Xiu mention that name, and from Zhe Xiu's expression at that time, he was very sure about this little girl It's scary. Similarly, he didn't know that the other party's target was the girl in white on his back. He thought that the other party was coming to chase and kill him. While being vigilant, he was also a little childishly happy. , has grown to be regarded as a real target by the terrifying bigwigs of the Demon Race. Thinking so, he asked back, "Are you Nanke?"
This is the first time Chen Changsheng met Nanke, and it was also the first time Nanke saw him. In the years to come, they will represent humans and demons to meet on many different battlefields, and then fight, and some conflicts will occur. Not funny, just tiresome story. Nanke had thought of the morning when he first met him more than once, and every time he would have faint regrets, thinking that if he had been more decisive at that time and not listened to the nonsense he said, or it was really possible to kill him at that time. Kill, then there will be no follow-up stories and troubles.
Time always moves in a single arrow, Nan Ke cannot know what will happen in the future, her attention is naturally still on Xu Yourong, even if the other party is obviously unconscious at this time, as for Chen Changsheng, she is just the person she is talking to : "You put her down, and I will spare you."
When she said this, Nanke's expression was still indifferent, but the two maids beside her were a little surprised, wondering what's wrong with the master, who would actually negotiate with humans, and if he let Chen Changsheng go like this Leaving, they fought desperately by the lake yesterday, wouldn't it be meaningless.
The reason for this is because they didn't know that Nanke was also seriously injured in the battle at the top of Muyu Peak last night. More importantly, Nanke could see clearly that Chen Changsheng was standing in the reeds, It is possible to jump into the lake at any time, and in the seemingly clear lake water, there is actually a dividing line, and the grassland is at the other end of the line.
Nanke didn't want Chen Changsheng to feel that he had reached a dead end and jump into the lake, because even she had a lot of fears about that vast and mysterious grassland.
Hearing Nanke's words, Chen Changsheng was a little surprised, and only then did he realize that the other party's goal was not him, but of course he couldn't keep Xu Yourong and run for his own life—he didn't know that the girl in white on his back was Xu Yourong , unlike Xu Yourong, he was used to carrying a lot of things on his back when he was young. He just promised her that he would not leave her behind.
"I can't do it." He looked at Nanke and said honestly, then looked at the other person's eyebrows and eyes, hesitant to speak.
Nanke's dull and indifferent eyes were full of puzzlement. She didn't understand where Chen Changsheng's strange expression came from, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said, "You are sick."
Hearing this, Nanke raised his eyebrows suddenly, like a little girl who went to the mountains to harvest a large basket of pigweed hard in the morning and was snatched away by the drunk next door. She was very angry, and her voice suddenly rose: "You are the only one who is sick, your whole family is sick, everyone in the Orthodox Academy is sick!"
The cry of the childish but very cold and extremely angry little girl echoed around the quiet reeds.
The two maids remained silent, wondering why the master suddenly became so angry and why he reacted so strongly to Chen Changsheng's words.
Hearing the constant shouting and cursing from the shore, Chen Changsheng felt a little helpless, thinking that if you hadn't insisted on asking, how would I have said it.
However, anger and sensitivity mean that his judgment is true. Chen Changsheng suddenly thought that maybe he could use this matter in exchange for the possibility of leaving. After Nanke's angry and sharp voice gradually died down, he said seriously: "I I don’t know if your Mozu spies in the capital have grasped the background of my teacher, if you know, then you should understand that my medical skills are good.”
The look in Nan Ke's eyes was extremely indifferent, looking at him was like looking at a dead person, and said, "I don't know what you are talking about."
Chen Changsheng organized the vocabulary silently in his heart to ensure that the other party, even a demon, could understand him, and continued: "Your blood has a problem, if you don't treat it as soon as possible, in the future, after the second awakening of the soul in your body, it may be If there is a phenomenon of backlash, even if you can save your life, it may become a dementia."
Nan Ke's face was a little pale. It's not known whether it was the remnants of last night's battle or because of what he said, but her voice was still indifferent and calm: "I don't know what you are talking about."
As Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Demon Race and the only disciple in the black robe, even if Zhou Yuan was shattered in front of her eyes, it would probably not be able to change her expression a little bit, but she was still young after all, and she thought that she hid her true emotions very well. Unbeknownst to him, Chen Changsheng, his maid and the old man playing the piano all heard something wrong.
If what Chen Changsheng said had no effect on her, why would she repeat the same words twice? Is Her Royal Highness sick? And it looks like a troublesome disease? The faces of the two maids turned extremely pale in an instant, thinking what would happen to them if they knew this secret? The face of the old man playing the piano also became a little ugly.
