Lin Xin was lying on the side, sleeping around the fire like the others around him, but he could hear the others whispering secretly.
He didn't know the identities of these people, but it sounded like they had other plans, and they didn't really follow this team to cross the border and go to the underworld.
Judging from the words of these people, it seems that they plan to leave the team now, and before leaving, they will try to trick the leader of the team.
The target seems to be the kind little girl Ma Qiuqiu. According to the opinions of several people, it seems that they want to attack that little girl.
Lin Xin turned over and heard a few people quietly getting up and walking out of the mushroom tree house. Not long after, there was a faint sound of footsteps stepping into the snow outside.
He turned over and thought about it before following.
In the middle of the night, when I left the small house, there was a snowstorm outside, and I could only see a vast expanse of white everywhere.
Those people's footprints did not deliberately erase them, but just headed away from the tree house.
Lin Xin followed him, followed the footprints, and soon came to a mushroom tree, where several vague figures were already standing.
Because of the difference in physical fitness, he can see the other person, but the other person cannot see him.
After finding a place to hide, he waited quietly for these people to see what their purpose was.
Anyway, we had nothing to do, and the little girl was quite cute and kind. It would be a pity if she was tricked like this, so I simply followed her out to see what was going on.
Not long after, as expected, several people came out of the snow, both men and women, and they were all dressed up to look like they were trying to stay away.
"Have you brought anything?"
"I got it, take advantage of the team that came out this time to cover it up, pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other. If it's missing, don't blame the bosses for being rude."
Several men who came out earlier said hey.
"What do you mean you are not welcome? We worked hard to bring it out intact." Another group of people also said coldly, "If the money is missing, don't blame the brothers for not recognizing their friendship."
"Stop talking nonsense and inspect the goods first."
Then the two groups of people began to hand over something.
Lin Xin frowned. He originally thought he was simply going out to save people. But he didn't expect to encounter such a situation.
I don’t know what they handed over, but it sounded very precious.
The group of people here whispered the transaction. It ended quickly, and then several people who were in the same room with Lin Xin planned to leave.
Then I heard another rustling sound in the snow, and it seemed like someone was coming again.
"Brother Feng, are you there? I've brought something for you." The voice of a cute little girl came along the wind and snow, which was a little hazy, but she could still hear it clearly.
Hearing the sound, several people who were originally a little wary burst into laughter of unknown meaning.
"Feng Yongsheng, please move quickly. Just kidnap someone and leave, but you will be delayed."
"Don't worry. If I do it, there will still be a lot of trouble. I thought it would be enough for a few people to secretly protect this little girl, but I didn't expect that I still have such means."
"He was arrested and taken away."
A shadow ran straight towards the direction where the girl's voice came from, as light as nothing. It showed extraordinary lightness skills.
Lin Xin's heart moved, and he followed him out. Also quietly, with his understanding and skill-based effect, any technique in his hands can reach the level of comprehension and breakthrough as quickly as possible. As long as he succeeds once, he can quickly
After grasping the principle and practicing Qing Gong for so many years, he has naturally reached the pinnacle. He is much better than this person.
Although the Shining Body Technique cannot be used due to the limitation of spiritual energy, the body can still lift weights with ease just by relying on the strength of the legs and muscles.
I followed the man running dozens of meters through the snow. I saw a little girl in front of me, wrapped in a thick plush white coat, walking towards here carrying something.
"Don't be afraid, Qiuqiu. Big brother will be able to take you home and make you my wife soon." Feng laughed lewdly and slowed down to hug the girl.
Ma Qiuqiu seemed to realize something was wrong. Her expression changed, she turned around, dropped her things and ran back. She opened her mouth and was about to shout.
Snap.
A sound of wind came through the air, and it seemed to be some kind of small stone, which hit her waist, tore her clothes, and scratched some wounds on the skin of her waist.
Suddenly a numb and helpless feeling came over my heart.
Ma Qiuqiu fell forward and fell down. She could no longer move, and she couldn't even shout. She could only make a small sound of babbling.
The man named Feng chuckled. He walked up impatiently and reached out to hug Ma Qiuqiu.
"Stop." Suddenly a cold female voice came from not far away.
"Who?" The man named Feng was immediately surprised.
Even Lin Xin, who was ready to take action, stopped and looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a brown shadow suddenly flashing in front of the man in the snow.
It was a well-dressed woman wearing a yellow leather hat, but one of her sleeves was empty, with nothing on it, and her arm was obviously broken. Her face was ordinary, she had a machete on her back, and her body was somewhat strong.
.And it’s not like ordinary women who wear any kind of decoration.
"Who are you?" The man surnamed Feng suddenly became alert, "I have never seen you in the team."
"I'm just a passerby. I passed by this place and I couldn't bear to see you so I showed up." The woman said casually. She took off the machete from her back with her backhand and showed a hint of impatience on her not-so-pretty face.
The man surnamed Feng seemed to feel that the other party was in danger, and he was about to say something more, but he didn't expect that a sudden flash of a knife flashed in the snow, and large swaths of wind and snow were picked up by the other party and hit him head and face.
He drew his sword and blocked it in front of him, then retreated quickly, but he was still a step too slow.
Blood flowers flashed, and bright red blood splashed all over the snow. A human head rolled to the ground.
The one-armed woman sheathed her knife and glanced at Ma Qiuqiu lying on the ground.
"Just take care of yourself."
She turned around and was about to leave.
"Sister, please stay." Ma Qiuqiu suddenly stood up and shouted.
"You're not poisoned." The one-armed woman was also shocked.
"I was hit, but it was only for a short time. I have a special constitution." Ma Qiuqiu was a little puzzled, and then hurriedly said, "Sister, you saved me, I haven't thanked you yet."
For a moment, both of them were speechless.
"So I'm meddling in other people's business." The one-armed woman shook her head and turned to leave. However, Ma Qiuqiu grabbed her from behind.
"Sister, you saved my life and you are a strong martial artist. Why don't you join the team with me and act together. Isn't it safer to go on such a long journey?"
Seeing this, Lin Xin also burst into laughter. The little girl Ma Qiuqiu looked kind. But she was not without scheming. She obviously had some means of self-protection. And the one-armed woman who appeared later also clearly wanted to join the team and act together. But
But due to the embarrassment of face, it was difficult to say it out loud. Otherwise, the little girl wouldn't have held my hand so easily.
With her movement skills just now, it was easy to avoid it.
Shaking his head, he turned around and retreated quietly. This night was just like that, no danger but no danger.
More than a month passed in the blink of an eye.
"Uncle Hong, I'm here to see you again."
Lin Xin was sitting in his room reading a book when he heard the little girl jumping up and running and knocking on the door.
Feeling a little helpless, he stood up and opened the door.
Ma Qiuqiu entered the door innocently.
"Uncle, can you tell me another story today? You have read so many mythology books, and there are always endless good things to tell. You are better than my father and grandfather."
Lin Xin returned to his seat, and he was speechless for Ma Qiuqiu, who was only a teenager.
More than a month ago, ever since she pulled the one-armed woman into the team, she seemed to no longer worry about herself. Not only did she not learn her lesson, but she even got worse. She ran into the team following her all day long.
The team changed to some big ox carts half a month ago. They are said to be ox carts, but they are actually huge white oxen that are more than three meters high and seven or eight meters long. They are used to pull spindle-shaped long houses.
.
The house was like a train, divided into many singing compartments. More than a dozen big oxen pulled it down, and not only loaded all the people in the team, but also took the rest of the people who were migrating with them, but each person was collected again.
some money.
Lin Xin is staying in his room reading a book at the moment.
Niula's house is very big, with three floors from bottom to top and five sections from front to back. The place where he lives now is the last section of the room at the back.
"What story do you want to hear this time?"
Over the past month or so, Lin Xin has also become familiar with this little girl. Rather than being familiar with her, it is better to say that she is familiar with her.
This little girl has a sweet mouth. She is good at talking, sensible, and kind-hearted. When she is bored, she will run to the back to find someone to chat with.
One day when Lin Xin was talking to her, he mentioned a short fable, and the little guy was attracted to it. From then on, he kept bringing things over and begging him to tell stories.
"Don't always run here alone, otherwise your father will be worried and angry again."
Lin Xin smiled and sat down again.
"But the team is actually very boring. I just want to hear fairy magic, magical stories, how those masters who know how to practice can fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and are omnipotent."
The little girl had a look of longing in her eyes.
"Immortals are just immortals in the eyes of ordinary people. In fact, they are not as powerful as you think." Lin Xin smiled and shook his head. "I have seen immortals before. They can be imagined as enhanced versions of ordinary warriors. There is not much qualitative change.
"
"But they know magic. They can shoot out flames, water, and ice cubes from their fingers. They can recite spells to control various flying swords and magic weapons, and they can control weapons to fly." The little girl's eyes were bright.
"If you want to become an immortal, the conditions are very strict." Lin Xin shook his head.
"What are the conditions?" Ma Qiuqiu asked curiously.
"Qualification, hard work, luck, courage, and intelligence may all have to reach a certain level." Lin Xin also expressed some emotion.
"Legend has it that qi practitioners swallowed clouds and mist, collected the essence of heaven and earth, and used weapons to kill enemies thousands of miles away." Ma Qiuqiu sat down and said longingly, "It would be great if I could become an immortal one day."
"Maybe one day I can't say for sure." Lin Xin said with a smile. "Okay, today I will tell you a story about the colossus returning elixirs."
He randomly picked an allusion that he had read before and told it in detail. Although the story was just a story, it contained some philosophical truths and could help the little girl understand many things.
While he was telling the little guy a story, he seemed to have forgotten everything that had happened and the hallucinations of the underworld. He seemed to be just an ordinary passerby. To be continued.
