Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.
The strange thing is that the footsteps seem to be walking in place, neither going far nor getting closer.
It happened that at this time, a gust of cool wind blew, and the surrounding atmosphere instantly became gloomy, and Situ Yu subconsciously leaned towards Nalan Weiran next to him.
Ye Feiran looked around and then said, "Xiao Zhuzi, go and have a look."
The bamboo spirit was hesitating whether to refuse, when Ye Feiran said again, "A spiritual stone."
"I'll go right away."
The sound fell, and the bamboo spirit had disappeared.
The corners of Ye Feiran's lips were slightly raised, and she looked easy to deceive. I wonder if she would be deceived immediately after leaving here?
"Everyone, please be careful and don't deliberately take precautions." Yan Zheng said while drinking.
After a while, the bamboo spirit still hadn't come back. Ye Feiran couldn't help but feel a little worried. After thinking about it, he said to Yan Zheng and Hua Moli, "Teacher Yan, Elder Hua, let me go and have a look."
Yan Zheng nodded without thinking, "Go! Be careful."
"Little Ye Zi, I'll go with you." Jiang Yinghan immediately came over and said.
Ye Feiran smiled and shook his head, "No, I can do it alone."
Jiang Yinghan frowned slightly, not quite agreeing, but when she saw Ye Feiran's smiling eyes, she could only nod reluctantly, "Then be careful."
"I know, housekeeper."
After saying that, Ye Feiran's figure quickly swept forward.
Jiang Yinghan looked at her back, subconsciously put his hands on his hips, and muttered, "I'm not a housekeeper. Is there a housekeeper as young and beautiful as me?"
Jiang Yinghan could never say the word "beautiful" because she was thin-skinned and easily shy.
Soon, Ye Feiran discovered that as she moved, the footsteps seemed to move too, because no matter where she stopped, the footsteps she heard were the same.
Is it an illusion?
At this time, the bamboo spirit also came back panting. When he saw Ye Feiran, his eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted happily, "Human, human!"
Ye Feiran stretched out a hand, and the bamboo essence naturally fell on her hand.
"So happy, did you find anything?" Ye Feiran asked with a smile.
The bamboo spirit calmed down for a while before replying, "No, I walked around the bamboo forest and didn't see anyone. However, the poisonous mist in front of me has dispersed, and those people before have also left the bamboo forest."
Hearing this, Ye Feiran raised his eyebrows slightly. There was no one there. Could it really be an illusion?
Thinking that Qianxue Sect and Fengyun Second Team had left, Ye Feiran suddenly thought of a question and his face became solemn.
The next moment, she went back as quickly as possible.
"Xiao Zhuzi, has this situation ever happened before?"
"No, I've been a spirit for so long, and this is only the second time I've seen human beings. The first time I've seen those human beings die in the bamboo forest." The bamboo spirit replied truthfully.
"The poisonous mist dispersed..."
Before Ye Feiran finished speaking, the bamboo spirit interrupted her hastily, "Yes, yes, humans, please leave quickly. It takes a certain amount of time for the poisonous mist to disperse. If you don't leave when it disperses, what will happen if you don't leave?"
It's going to be a long wait.
Although there are still treasures in the bamboo forest, they are definitely not as many as you have got, so I think you should leave as soon as possible!"
Hearing this, Ye Feiran nodded heavily, and it was exactly what she had guessed.
They have spent a lot of time in the bamboo forest, and the most important thing is to leave as soon as possible and go to the next new place.
After Ye Feiran returned, he immediately told the story.
Before she could finish speaking, Yunchen and the others were already scrambling to put away all the things they had just set up camp.
Regarding this, Yan Zheng and Hua Moli looked at each other, with a smile flashing in their eyes, obviously very satisfied.
"Let's go faster!" Hua Moli waved her hand.
At this time, no one cared about the constant sound of footsteps.
Ye Feiran glanced at the bamboo spirit and walked forward quickly.
Seeing this, the bamboo spirit suddenly became anxious and chased Ye Feiran, "Humans, you can't keep your word! Where is the spirit stone you promised me?"
Ye Feiran immediately threw a spiritual stone to it, but the speed of his feet remained unchanged.
The bamboo spirit looked at the spiritual stone, and the whole bamboo was stunned. One...
"Human, why is it one? You can't lie to me."
"When did I lie to you? Anyway, you won't miss a single spiritual stone, but I won't give it all to you at once." Ye Feiran said with a smile.
After hearing this, the bamboo spirit flew in front of Ye Feiran, "No, human, you are ready to leave. If you don't give me the spirit stone now, when will you give it to me?"
"It depends on my mood. Anyway, as long as you follow me, I won't miss you a single spiritual stone. If you don't plan to follow me, then you don't have to worry about the remaining spiritual stones."
Ye Feiran stopped teasing Zhu Jing and spoke directly from his heart.
Bamboo Spirit's eyes widened suddenly and he even forgot to move.
When it came back to its senses, Ye Feiran was already far, far ahead, and only a figure from behind could be seen.
Seeing this, the bamboo spirit immediately chased after him. It took a lot of effort to get the spirit stone. How could it give up so easily?
"Human, you can't do this. I trust you so much, how could you do this to me?" The bamboo spirit's tone became more and more aggrieved.
Ye Feiran glanced at it and said seductively, "Little Zhuzi, do you want to stay in this bamboo forest all your life? The secret realm on the other side is only opened once every twenty years. If you want to see humans again, it will take twenty years!"
"I don't want to see humans." The bamboo spirit muttered. Humans are so cunning, and it doesn't want to be deceived again.
"Don't you want to see the world outside the bamboo forest and the secret realm? Follow me and you will not only get the spiritual stones you deserve, but I tell you, there are many spiritual stones out there, both in quality and grade, that are higher than what I have in my hand.
Don’t you want it?” Ye Feiran continued to seduce.
Hearing this, Zhuzi Jing looked at Ye Feiran and began to hesitate.
At this time, Ye Feiran had almost arrived outside the bamboo forest.
"You should think about it seriously, I'll wait for you outside."
Ye Feiran didn't wait too long. The bamboo spirit already had an idea, "Human, I need to think about it again, but I can follow you during this period."
Ye Feiran did not force Zhuzi Jing to make an immediate decision, and nodded lightly, "Okay!"
The next moment, the bamboo spirit happily landed on Ye Feiran's shoulder. Its green eyes looked at Ye Feiran's side face, and there was a hint of cunning in his eyes. During this time, it must get all the spiritual stones it deserves.
.
Ye Feiran naturally felt the eyes of the bamboo spirit, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, let's see who wins in the end.
Jiang Yinghan and the others looked at the bamboo spirit with a little sympathy. It would be difficult to escape what little leaf wants in the end.
However, they were all a little curious as to why Ye Feiran accepted the Bamboo Essence. What on earth was this Bamboo Essence capable of?
Not long after they left the bamboo forest, the bamboo forest began to be filled with poison again, but no one paid attention to this and discussed where to go next.
"Teacher Yan, there are footprints on this road."
"Elder Hua, there are also footprints on this road."
"That should be Qianxue Sect and Fengyun Second Team. Then which way should we go?"
Yan took a serious look, coughed slightly and said, "I saw a river in front of me. It's getting late. Let's camp here tonight and set off tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked up to the sky. Although the scorching sun was not high in the sky, it was not setting in the west, so why was it late?
