Garen narrowed his eyes slightly, his heart moved slightly, he activated Essek's Eye, and looked towards the black cloud again.
The black clouds were still rolling and flowing, but at a slightly faster speed. There was nothing unusual about it.
He withdrew his gaze and looked around. He didn't find anything suspicious.
Returning along the original path, after passing through several stone forests with huge stones, in front of you is a medium-sized oval hot spring pool.
A large amount of water vapor evaporated, and the air was hot and humid. Galen could faintly feel a sticky feeling on his skin.
He faintly heard bursts of laughter coming from the direction of the hot spring, which seemed to be a girl's voice.
There is a circle of tall stone pillars surrounding the hot spring pool, which is obviously a man-made shield.
Outside a stone pillar, Hong Umbrella and the old man were sitting cross-legged on the ground, chatting about something together. The child was writing and drawing on the surface of the stone pillar, looking like he was amusing himself.
Seeing Galen coming back, the old man raised the dried meat in his hand.
"We are planning to use the water here to make some broth to drink. Team leader, would you like some?"
"Have you found that little whitebait?" Garen asked casually, walking over and sitting cross-legged on the ground like them.
The old man shook his head, with a look of doubt on his face. "It's strange to say that I used to be able to catch a lot of small whitebait with just one net here, but now I can't see any of them. If there are any monsters lurking under the water, they will eat them."
It’s impossible to lose these little whitebait. We used totems to dive very deep before, and we didn’t find any trace of any living things until we reached the bottom of the water.”
"I didn't find anything around." Garen also shook his head and said, "It feels a little weird here. Let them leave as soon as possible after taking a bath. I don't like staying here."
"That's okay." The old man nodded.
"No, I still want to take a bath. I haven't taken a bath in three months," Hongsan wailed speechlessly.
"Three months" Garen and the old man were also speechless.
"Every time I think about taking a shower and going to bed, but every time I fall asleep first." Hong San was also a little embarrassed and laughed a few times.
"Let's take a rest first and take advantage of this time." Garen glanced at the child. There was nothing abnormal about the child who had some supernatural powers. Obviously, there shouldn't be any big problems here.
He took the lead in crossing his legs and closing his eyes, sitting on the stone ground and slowly relaxing.
I originally planned to search the surrounding area to see if there were any monsters that could provide potential points, but unfortunately I didn't see any monsters around.
After adjusting his condition, Gallon slowly immersed himself in the same state as when he was practicing secret martial arts in his previous life.
When practicing esoteric martial arts in this totem-dominated world, sometimes you always have the illusion of going back to the beginning.
After calming down and meditating, he concentrated on the core of Qi and blood in his body.
Different from the Divine Image Kung Fu, the Qi and blood routes of the Wanshui Biwang Kung Fu are very complicated, involving almost all blood vessels that can circulate, regardless of size, main blood vessels or capillaries.
This secret martial art is an ancient martial art passed down from the Sea King Fist. There are some routes where Garen knows what it does, but for most of the routes, Garen doesn't understand its purpose.
After practicing the Divine Idol Technique, his mastery of the body reached an unprecedented level, and he actually had blood circulation routes that he didn't understand.
Follow the Miwu instructions.
The first level of the Ten Thousand Waters and Blue King Kung Fu has the effect of controlling the flow of qi and blood within one meter of the surrounding area. This control covers both human and non-human beings, and any creature with blood flow will be affected.
The second level is to strengthen the scope, and the third level is to strengthen the power, which is the intensity of control.
It became unclear after that, because Celine had only practiced to the third level, and only the masters before the Sea King Fist had successfully practiced the fourth level. The specific abilities were unclear.
The entire Ten Thousand Waters Blue King Kung Fu is one of the more difficult main secret martial arts in the Neptune Fist Sect. It is said that no one has reached the highest level since the person who created the Kung Fu.
After Jia Long closed his eyes, he concentrated and mobilized the energy and blood in his body to start running along the route of the technique. There were too many blood vessels that needed to be run. Even if he had strong mental power, a large cycle would take two hours.
Moreover, this kind of operation is extremely difficult and difficult, as if the flow of qi and blood has a fixed speed, and every time it accelerates slightly, it will encounter extremely strong resistance.
Garen had the illusion that the nine-headed dragon that was about to become one with him seemed to be running this secret martial arts route together.
The sounds around him gradually faded away, and as time passed, he gradually fell into selflessness.
The old man and Red Umbrella sat next to Garen, one with his eyes closed and holding a black box in his hand, not knowing what he was listening to. The other was still the same as before, yawning constantly and feeling sleepy.
The child was lying on his back on the ground, not bothering with the heat of the ground, looking up at the white air above. From time to time he glanced at Garen who was doing his exercises cross-legged.
The sounds in the hot spring pool changed from excitement and comfort at first to whispers now, and there seemed to be the sound of water getting up. The kitten and the fox seemed to have had enough bathing in it and were ready to come out.
The old man who had been listening to the black box suddenly opened his eyes.
"Hongsan, do you have any plans after this mission?"
"Plans?" Hongsan covered her mouth and yawned, "I can't go back and sleep for a few days, I'm too sleepy."
"You don't want to do level-upgrading tasks when the team leader is here?" The old man raised his eyebrows.
"Aren't there still you guys?"
The old man was speechless and looked at the child aside.
"Kid, this mission is over, do you have any plans?"
"Go back to the farm." The child's clear voice was calm.
"How about staying with us in the Imperial Capital?"
"Why?" the child asked doubtfully.
"It's not a problem for you to stay outside alone. The situation is almost stable now. Most of the danger levels of monster lairs in various places have been determined, and clear activity areas have been drawn on the map. As long as we don't intrude, we can
There will be no major danger. The situation in all countries has stabilized and the defense lines have been consolidated. Without external crises, the next step is to establish a new social order. The improvement of this order is still being explored. In this case, as a force, we
As part of the agency force, the benefits of staying in the imperial capital are much greater than usual. Unlike during the turmoil, the force agency has the highest casualty rate."
The old man paused.
"We in Kuwaitan, Zenia, and Enite jointly established the West Farm Law Defense Line. Then there are the three major regions. And some small and medium-sized groups that live in the security gap. In this era, you can't survive without strength, so
It will be of great benefit to force controllers like us."
"Old man, are you trying to recruit talents for the eldest princess? I remember that you joined the eldest princess's staff last year?" Hong Umbrella pointed out lazily.
"Since you know it clearly, I also made it clear." The old man nodded, "I do work for the eldest princess. Although His Majesty Avic is talented and powerful, he is in a situation where many princes are decadent and have done nothing.
Your Majesty, the eldest princess is naturally the best choice. My family has received a lot of care after taking refuge with Her Highness the eldest princess, so it is natural for me to do these things."
"That's your business. I don't want to work under anyone. It's great to work in a secret agency. It has good benefits, good treatment, high status, and is relaxed." Hong San put his hands behind his head and smiled.
"What about you? Child?" The old man looked at the little guy aside.
The child also looked a little bored.
"I'll follow the team leader."
"What if the team leader also joins the eldest princess?" The old man suddenly laughed.
"I will follow the team leader." The child nodded affirmatively.
"Well, you see, the team leader will definitely choose to join us." The old man smiled and touched the child's head.
Soon, the fox and the kitten, who had changed their clothes again, walked out of the hot spring. They changed into white clothes of a different color, which looked like close-fitting swordsman uniforms, but there was a short cloak on the back, making it look like
Extremely cool. Revealing two pairs of beautiful white legs.
But what was a pity was that each of the four people present actually looked at them one more time.
The child didn't understand anything, but the old man had more experience and was calm and collected. The red umbrella was busy dozing off.
The remaining team leader, Garen, who is a normal man, is resting with his eyes closed, seeming to be recuperating.
The kitten curled her lips with regret, glanced at the fox, and felt more and more whether staying in this group was a wrong choice.
The fox still covered his face, and the expression on his face could not be seen.
The old man told the team leader what he meant, and the kitten and the fox expressed their understanding.
Garen slowly opened his eyes at this time.
I glanced at the sky and saw that the dark clouds above were still the same.
After hesitating for a moment, he also considered that he hadn't taken a shower in a long time.
Although being a totem master can prevent his body from being contaminated with dust, the excretion of his own sweat is unavoidable. He has the secret weapon to control himself, and even the secretion of sweat can be expelled from the body in other ways. But other people do not have this ability.
Seeing the pleading expressions on the children and Hongsan's faces, he felt that he was being a little cruel. He let a person who hadn't bathed for three months pass through the hot spring without entering.
"Forget it, since we're here, let's all go take a shower." Garen sighed. "By the way, I'll take a bath too."
"We are guarding the gate!" the kitten shouted immediately.
"Team Leader Yingming!!" Red Umbrella was the first to jump up and ran towards the white rhinoceros not far away. He quickly found four towels, all black towels, one for each of the four men. Then there was a small bottle of shower gel.
, there seemed to be dark red petals floating inside. They were filament-like red petals.
Each of the Gallons took a towel and walked into the artificial hot spring stone forest.
There was an oval-shaped pool inside that was filled with hot steam. It was surrounded by tall stone pillars of different heights, all in a circle, with only one entrance.
The four of them took off their coats one after another, revealing their hidden figures underneath.
Although he couldn't see clearly through the white mist, Garen could still see the appearance of the other three people.
The old man is a kind-faced little old man. He is wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses and is wiping the lenses with a piece of white cloth. If you meet him in a library or other places, you will probably think of him as a scholar.
A great scholar. But I heard that he was indeed a great scholar.
Hong San has short red hair, slanted eyebrows, and an unusually handsome appearance. Moreover, his eyes are also red and his skin is fair. He is a pampered aristocratic son.
The child took off his clothes and was skinny and without any flesh. His skin was dry and he was completely stunted. He also had deep-set eye sockets, messy dark brown hair, and a few freckles on the tip of his nose.
But these are not the key points. The most bizarre thing is that the child's skin does not have any color at all. It is extremely pale.
Garen couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Then he took off his clothes and threw them on the stone platform by the pool.
Garen walked into the water, sat down, and let his blond hair float on the water. His whole body sank into the water, with only the part above the chin exposed.
The water temperature is just right, almost forty degrees.
Garen closed his eyes and completely relaxed the nerves that had been tense for a long time.
In such a wilderness, you just can't completely relax your nerves. You must always be on guard against something weird happening somewhere, or a powerful monster appearing to attack you.
But here you have your own team members guarding the door, and there are other people taking a bath together, so you don’t have to worry too much about safety issues.
Unknowingly, Garen seemed to have fallen into a state of half-asleep and half-awake.
The scene that had happened before when the Ten Thousand Waters Blue King was improving seems to have happened again. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
