Under the 'escort' of Nikita's army, there was no resistance in the search for Xiao Xiao's entry passage. The monsters or beasts wandering in the wilderness were like snow in midsummer, melting away completely in front of this army.
The young wizards didn't even need to walk. They shared a few big spiders and it was as easy as an outing.
Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao sat on the back of the largest spider, the caretaker Nikita.
Because he still has many questions that he needs to consult Dr. Xiao Da:
"Why would Hastur help us?"
"What?" Xiao Xiao was looking at the sparkling water of the Skye River with squinted eyes and did not understand Zheng Qing's question.
"You said before that Hastur and the Siren King are cousins. Why would he help the school instead of helping his cousin?"
"I'm not an alien god, how can I know what He thinks?" Xiao Xiao finally understood Zheng Qing's question, shook his head and adjusted his glasses:
"But I can make a simple inference based on common sense. The blood connection is the most precious, but also the cheapest connection in the wizarding world. Magic can easily destroy this connection. Maybe it's a battle of avenues, maybe a battle of will, maybe just because of restraint.
Sulu doesn’t like Hastur’s resemblance to him... We don’t need to guess the big shot’s story, we just need to know the outcome.”
"How do you know these things?"
"What things?" Xiao Xiao asked patiently.
"The Siren King is Cthulhu, the relationship between Hastur and Cthulhu, etc.," Zheng Qing recalled the information he had searched, always thinking that he had overlooked a certain corner in the library: "School Books
Is there any information on this in the library?”
"Of course not... these are private information." As he spoke, Xiao Xiao suddenly raised his hand to stop the team from moving forward. Then he jumped off the back of the purple spider and carefully looked at the scene in the Skye River in front of him. After a moment, he straightened up.
Body, continued: "If you have any other questions, we can discuss them slowly after returning to school... Now, it is time to go home."
Zheng Qing gestured with his gun and jumped off the purple spider's back with Nikita.
At this moment, they were standing in a small river valley, with the broad River Skye right in front of them. The water flow was gentle, like a bright mirror. The river banks were surrounded by hills covered with shrubs and small plots of farmland. The river water was clear and blue, with a flower frozen in it.
A white wave.
It's like someone cut off the sky and threw it into the river.
Standing at the mouth of the river valley, you can see the city wall of Usa not far away on the other side. The dark shadow of the small city lies in the wilderness, like a lazy wild cat.
"No wonder you chose to go to Usa City." Zheng Qing gestured to the distance between the river bank and the small city, and nodded repeatedly: "Indeed, you didn't have many choices at the time... Did you emerge from this river?
?”
The young wizard's eyes roamed the river, trying to find the entrance to a certain cave. But as far as he could see, there were only calm river surfaces and messy river beaches, and he could not see any place where a 'passage' might be hidden.
Unlike Zheng Qing, Xiao Xiao did not look around stupidly on the shore. He put a 'Head Soaking Curse' on his head, jumped straight into the water, and then plunged into the depths of the river amidst everyone's exclamations.
Every passage that wizards enter into the dreamland has some mysterious connection with them. It didn't take much effort for Xiao Xiao to find an invisible whirlpool under the calm water. The end of the whirlpool is connected to another world.
.
That's a water eye.
It's just that this water eye is a little different from what Xiao Xiao expected. After a brief moment of sensing, he realized the biggest problem: this water eye is too small.
Not to mention Nikita's sizable army, even the five-man hunting team of Xun Sin could not pass through it at one time. According to Xiao Xiao's induction, this water eye could only pass through two people at one time.
And one of them has to be him.
Because he is the 'key' to this passage.
This means that those huge Guge giants and the Shattuck birds cannot be brought back to the school - this is a rich trophy, and it would be a pity to throw it away.
But what is even more head-scratching is not the loss of the trophies, but the 'disposal risk' of these trophies. If they are thrown directly on the shore, the young wizards of the Exoneration Hunting Team will pat their butts and leave, and the out-of-control monsters will
Xiao Xiao could think of something to do in the small town within sight.
Even if they have the patience to 'safely disband' this army, they still need to consider the selection and order of people who pass through the water eye each time. Without Zheng Qing's intimidation, Xiao Xiao doesn't have much confidence in dealing with that cunning banshee.
With these messy thoughts and dragging his heavy robe that was soaked by the water, Xiao Xiao fluttered and struggled to climb out of the water. The 'bubble' covering his head exploded into a mist the moment he came out of the water.
The little wizard shuddered.
Immediately, several gusts of warm wind enveloped him. This was when his teammates were casting the spell of 'Blow out the sun and enjoy the valley breeze'. In just a moment, Xiao Xiao's robe was dry again.
But his expression could not be smoothed out like a dry robe, and was still wrinkled.
The young wizards who had forgiven their sins quickly learned the details of this passage from Xiao Xiao.
"Sounds a bit like the problem of crossing the river." Zheng Qing held the rune gun, stared at Nikita's figure, and nodded thoughtfully.
"The problem of crossing the river?" Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows. There were few things that Zheng Qing knew that he didn't know, but it was indeed the first time he had heard of this problem.
Zheng Qing immediately became interested: "It's just a little story. One day, in a certain place, a farmer crossed the river with a big bad wolf, a little goat and a basket of cabbage..."
"Why did the farmer bring a big bad wolf?" Zhu Si raised his hand first and questioned the logic of this question: "The big bad wolf can eat people!"
"Maybe that farmer is a werewolf, so he keeps a big bad wolf as a pet." The little banshee next to Nikita added the setting in a serious manner.
"Yes, that's right, a werewolf, the farmer is a werewolf." Zheng Qing waved his hands impatiently: "That's not the point... The point is, they have to cross the river, but the boat is too small, and the farmer can only bring one thing across at a time.
.But if the farmer is not around, the big bad wolf will eat the kid, and the goat will eat the basket of cabbage...This is the classic river-crossing problem."
"I am the big bad wolf." Nikita was very self-aware, pointed at himself, and looked at the young wizards with a smile.
"Then who is Xiao Baicai?"
"Her." Jiang Yu silently pointed at the little banshee: "If you weren't around, I doubt I would be able to strangle it to death."
"It's difficult for us to kill a demon with our hands... It's a good choice to give it to the school." Zheng Qing gave his opinion carefully, then looked at everyone again: "So? What are your good suggestions?
