Seeing Xue Chen sitting down, Ning Xuanxuan slowly sat aside and started breathing in and out. Soon, she felt something different.
She was obviously a little cold due to the autumn wind in the mountains just now, but now suddenly she didn't feel the chill at all. On the contrary, her whole body was still warm and comfortable, as if she was soaking in a hot spring pool, which made her unbearable.
I almost hummed softly. Naturally, I quickly became immersed in it.
The two people sat face to face in silence, as if they had become two sculptures, not moving again for a long time, in this inaccessible deep mountain forest.
When she opened her eyes again, Ning Xuanxuan couldn't help but exclaimed. Her eyes were full of shock. She couldn't believe that a night had passed. At this time, it was already early morning and the sun had not yet risen.
There was a layer of white mist floating in the forest, and it was very quiet.
She stayed for a while, and soon discovered that Xue Chen, who was sitting in front of her, was gone. The entire stone platform was empty, and she was the only one left. This made her panic immediately. If Xue Chen was gone,
It is very difficult for her to get down from this rock platform, and there is no way for a person to get out from the complex position of the Baiyun Mountains.
"Xue Chen!"
She couldn't help but stand up immediately and shouted around her. When she shouted for the third time, Xue Chen jumped up from under the rock platform.
"You didn't even tell me what you were doing. Just now...I was really...worried about you." She wanted to say that she was almost scared to death, but she felt that she had lost face.
How could Xue Chen not see her panic, he smiled, but did not expose it: "I saw you hadn't woken up just now, so I didn't call you. I went around and found some fruit."
He originally placed a lot of food in the Yutong space, but unfortunately they were all destroyed during the competition. After waking up early in the morning, he felt a little hungry and then realized it, so he walked around and found some good food.
What I eat are fruits that grow naturally in the mountains, including wild strawberries, mountain apples, and pears...
There is a whole bag of fruits, with colors ranging from red to green, which are not only beautiful to look at but also quite appetizing.
Women also like to eat fruits. After all, they are good for the skin. Ning Xuanxuan immediately took them and picked the fruits she liked.
"How do you feel?" Xue Chen asked with concern.
"What's going on?" Ning Xuanxuan looked up, looking confused.
Xue Chen was stunned for a moment: "You have absorbed the spiritual energy all night, don't you have any special feeling at all?"
"I'm teasing you, of course I feel it." Ning Xuanxuan softened her tone and said as if thinking, "How should I put it, my body seems to be much lighter, and my whole body is very comfortable. I have never felt so comfortable before. It seems like I have been sleeping overnight.
In this moment, even the fatigue in my bones was driven away..."
Ning Xuanxuan squinted her eyes, and there was a comfortable blush on her cheeks on both sides, as if shining with light, making her already stunning appearance even more outstanding. Standing on this high stone platform, she was covered by the light white
The mist surrounds me, like an elf goddess in the forest.
"Apart from these? Are there no other feelings?" Xue Chen asked eagerly.
"You... give me a hint?" Ning Xuanxuan blinked.
Xue Chen pointed to his lower abdomen and said, "It's right here. Don't you feel anything else?"
"Here?" Ning Xuanxuan lowered her head and glanced at her lower abdomen. Her face immediately became unnatural, and her blush became more obvious. She opened her mouth, but closed it again. Her body was indeed not in good shape these past two days.
It's comfortable. It's my menstrual period. Yesterday there was some slight pain, but it's gone today. But what can I say?
Seeing Sister Xuan hesitate to speak, Xue Chen was also a little confused. He naturally wanted to ask if the prototype of the spiritual energy cyclone had appeared. That would be considered as entry.
However, the two of them did not think of going together, nor did they continue to discuss this issue.
After eating some fruits together, the two discussed today's itinerary.
He had absorbed a lot of spiritual energy last night, which would take some time to digest, and Xue Chen did not have that much energy to immediately set up a large jade array.
Not only does the Jade Array cause physical fatigue, it will take at least a day and a night to recover. If you continue to set it up forcibly, you will feel upset and have a lower success rate.
"I heard that wild ginseng is also grown here. Someone gave my grandfather one a few years ago. I heard it was from the 1950s and is very precious. Why don't we go look for it? Maybe we can find one.
You will get rich." Ning Xuanxuan looked around and took a deep breath of relief.
Of course Xue Chen knew she was joking. Wild ginseng is indeed a good thing, but its value to him is almost zero. As for picking it and selling it for money, there is no need. Even if it can be sold for 1.8 million, for two people
Personally, it's nothing.
Ning Xuanxuan said again like a joke: "In a large deep mountainous forest like the Baiyun Mountains, do you think there will be monsters haunting it? It's like the black bear spirit and green snake monster that appeared in Journey to the West."
"It's not impossible."
Ning Xuanxuan was just joking, but Xue Chen's answer was serious, which directly scared Ning Xuanxuan.
"Are you talking about it for fun?" Ning Xuanxuan's tone was a little weak, and her eyes flickered.
"It's not a joke." Xue Chen shook his head. A few days ago, he would never have believed that there really were so-called goblins and monsters in the world. However, there were two or three places related to goblins in the information passed down from generation to generation in Prince Qi's Mansion.
Records related to monsters.
The earliest record of it was in the late Ming Dynasty. It was a time of war. Suddenly, there were rumors of goblins eating people in a certain place. It happened that a practitioner from the Qi Prince's inheritance passed by there, so he went to check and found it at night.
He killed a man-eating goblin and fought a great battle, and eradicated the monster even though he was injured.
At that time, when he saw this information, he did not take it seriously. He only thought that the practitioner of the inheritance from Prince Qi's Mansion made up such a story in order to show his noble character. This is not uncommon in many historical talks. After all, in ancient times, people
He is still in a state of ignorance and has a lot of belief in goblins and eccentricities. Such rumors can make Prince Qi's palace even more famous.
However, later on, he saw two other bits of information about goblins and monsters, from the early Qing Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty. Although there were only a few strokes, they clearly recorded the existence of goblins and monsters.
After listening to Xue Chen's words, the expression on Ning Xuanxuan's face became a little unnatural, and she sighed faintly: "I found that the longer I stay with you, the more I will come into contact with some strange things.
Weird thing, now you actually tell me that there are really goblins and monsters in this world. From now on, I might not be able to sleep well at night. What do you think I should do?"
Seeing Sister Xuan's scared look, Xue Chen couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry, even if there are monsters and monsters, they won't harm you. Didn't you see in Journey to the West, those monsters also like beautiful women?
At most, I can take you away and treat you as the wife of the village, and your life will be safe."
"You...are you trying to comfort me?" Ning Xuanxuan rolled her eyes, not knowing whether to be angry or happy.
After almost eating all the wild fruits they picked, Xue Chen and Ning Xuanxuan jumped off the rock platform and decided to go to the county seat of Huanan County to rest for a day and then go into the mountains tomorrow to continue gathering spiritual energy to absorb.
His approach is rare in those inheritances. No one would arrange the spirit gathering array to absorb spiritual energy every day. The big reason is that the territory of each inheritance is certain, and once it is used, it takes ten
It takes years to recover, which is a very long time.
Today, there are four inheritances in Yunzhou Province, which almost equally divides the entire Yunzhou Province. Except for the Baiyun Mountains, although the area is very large, except for the inheritance of Prince Qi's Mansion, the other three inheritances will use those untapped spiritual resources very sparingly.
Land, because once it is used up, people in the entire inheritance will be faced with no source of spiritual energy. This is a very serious problem. It is better to not have enough to eat every day than to have nothing to eat. What is important is continuity and circulation.
Xue Chen doesn't care about this problem. First of all, the Baiyun Mountains belong to a special zone. Although he has told several inheritors in Yunzhou Province that he wants this place to be his territory, will Yulong Cave agree? Definitely not.
Yes, if you know this, something will definitely happen.
Also, he has no so-called inheritance, he is just a lonely person. As the saying goes, if one person has enough food and the whole family is not hungry, he does not need to think so much. He has only one goal, which is to improve his realm as quickly as possible and achieve it through various channels.
It would be nice to have more powerful spells.
Just like going up the mountain yesterday, Xue Chen still hugged Sister Xuan's waist, shrank to the ground, and walked very quickly. He waited until he met some herbal collectors or travel companions before slowing down and walking.
while chatting.
"Xu Ming made a phone call to me before he left. It seems that he has a deep grudge against you. I wonder if he will come to settle the score with you after he really comes from outside to practice advanced practice." Ning Xuanxuan curled her lips.
Jiao, said lazily.
Xue Chen glanced at it and said with some helplessness: "Why do I feel that you are gloating about your misfortune? Don't forget, I met Xu Ming and had a conflict for the first time, but it was all because of you. If it weren't for you
, how do I have the opportunity to meet him, the eldest son of the Ning family?"
"So, you..."
Ning Xuanxuan closed her mouth mid-sentence because she and Xue Chen both heard the sound of quarreling and shouting not far away.
"It seems like something happened over there? Should we go over and have a look?" Ning Xuanxuan glanced at the direction from which the sound came.
Xue Chen had already looked over with clairvoyance and eagle eyes, and his eyes moved slightly: "He seems to be an acquaintance, let's go and have a look." (To be continued)
