The green and black aerial roots of the banyan tree trembled slightly.
The light bugs lying on the aerial roots sucking tree sap flapped their wings uneasily, and some of them even flashed their bellies, looking like light bulbs with poor contact, but they did not make any sizzling noise.
Zheng Qing raised his head alertly and glanced above the Qi root.
A gray-skinned sparrow held a caterpillar in its mouth and was standing quietly on the upper part of its aerial root, jumping around and curiously looking at the strange figure below.
This reassured him a little.
"Swordsman, if the status adjustment is completed, you can do some preliminary exploration of the surroundings first," Zheng Qing looked at the hunters of the hunting team and warned again: "Keep a safe distance and prioritize the key points that the doctor just mentioned.
direction."
Holding the sword in his arms, Lan Que stood up silently, nodded slightly, stepped forward, and suddenly disappeared from the sight of several others. He did not speak from the beginning to the end, leaving only a few fallen leaves rolled up by the airflow...
"Oh... he ran too fast." The fat man suddenly remembered something and stamped his feet: "The mink is still in his hat! We only have this one hunting beast now!"
"It's because there is only one hunting beast left, so the sable has to follow him." Zheng Qing continued to lower his head to check the data recorded by Zhang Jixin, and explained smoothly: "After all, the two of them are the most familiar...and, one
Hunting animals won’t be of much help to our subsequent plans.”
"Actually, I don't mind if you call out the nose ring and earrings." Fatty interrupted at the right time: "I think if it is present, everyone may feel more at ease."
The nose ring and earrings are the names of Zheng Qing's two-headed Minotaur. I must admit that the fat man's proposal is very tempting. After all, in this dangerous environment, there is someone who can buff everyone at any time and act as a human shield.
The existence of the hunting team is very helpful in boosting the confidence of the hunting team.
Especially the tall and strong figure of the two-headed Minotaur, which looks very safe.
"If necessary." The captain of the Exoneration Hunting Team did not refuse, but he also did not immediately agree to Fatty's request.
"Although with the assistance of the Merlin Medal, any summoning magic will continue to consume the wizard's magic power. This safe moment is not the right time to summon the Minotaur." Xiao Xiao was writing and drawing with a notebook beside him, listening to
I saw the conversation between the two and explained it casually.
"Everyone knows this kind of thing." Fatty muttered, a rare expression of embarrassment appeared on his chubby face.
Perhaps in order to make up for his fallacy, he opened his mouth and kindly gave his own advice: "Do other hunting teams hunt animals? Will it cause us trouble? I have a stupid way... I prepared it before
I bought some bacon with croton juice on it, thinking that maybe some stupid hunting beast from some hunting party would eat it."
As he spoke, he quickly clicked on the storage watch on his wrist, revealing a black and red bacon strip that exuded an alluring aroma.
The air root next to it trembled again.
Zheng Qing raised his head and saw that the problem was still caused by sparrows - only this time there were a few more, which should be the companions of the previous sparrow. The swarms of light bugs lying on the aerial roots seemed to be getting more and more restless, and their abdomens flickered with frequency.
It has also become a bit more.
It seemed that the fat man himself felt that his method was stupid, and his voice became lower and lower involuntarily: "...Anyway, it will eventually bring them some trouble, won't it?"
"Sounds like a good idea." Zheng Qing did not deny it, but stretched out his fingers to wipe the surface of the bacon, then put it under his nose and smelled the yellow oil stains: "Is this purified croton juice? Smell it.
The concentration seems pretty good.”
"Eighteen times!" Finally getting the affirmation from others, Fatty immediately became elated: "I have been busy in the potions laboratory for a whole week, taking time to work out for a while every day... Professor Li said, such a small
A piece of meat can make an elephant lose weight!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his little finger and showed the size of his fingertip.
"You wouldn't really use such despicable methods to deal with the hunting animals of other hunting teams, would you!" Zhang Jixin finally reacted and looked at Zheng Qing with disbelief: "I remember you used to despise this kind of...
... Shameless means!"
"That was before." Zheng Qing waved his hand impatiently, as if he was driving away a group of annoying flies: "Soldiers, there are tricks. Our only goal now is to get out of the hunting ground alive... And, who said these things will definitely work?
Among the hunting animals? Hunters, demons, and even the sparrows above our heads... If necessary, I wouldn't even mind holding my nose and eating a pound of this bacon."
"This doesn't sound like your answer." Elder Zhang frowned, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions.
Xiao Xiao finally put down the notebook in his hand, raised his head, and took a serious look at Zheng Qing.
"Is the impact within the controllable range?" he asked inexplicably.
But Zheng Qing immediately understood what he meant - obviously, everyone noticed the significant change in his personality.
"It's controllable." The young public-funded student lowered his head and muttered: "At least, I should be grateful for this damn side effect before taking off this damn hunting ground."
"In that case," Xiao Xiao paused, took off his glasses, rubbed them with the corner of his robe, finally raised his head, and asked a question that surprised Zheng Qing: "I remember that after you drank the sleeping potion last night, you shouted
What did you say...do you remember?"
Zheng Qing immediately raised his eyebrows.
"Oh, I remember it too." The fat man hurriedly spoke and added: "I remember what he said about coming back and so on... he fell asleep before he finished speaking."
"It's just a small prophecy." Zheng Qing raised his head, stared at the sparrows jumping around, and waved his hands carelessly: "The little girl named Nan Jian from Elena's hunting team made this for me.
The prophecy - to be precise, it was made by Professor Yi, she just acted as an intermediary."
"Is it related to today's incident?" Xiao Xiao asked, but then added: "If it involves personal information, then don't say it... This is not a safe place."
"It doesn't matter, they are all clichés. You also know that sometimes if we don't care so much, these prophecies are actually no different from those in the mirror." Zheng Qing shrugged and repeated Nanjian's prophecy: "Those who leave will return soon, and they will fall asleep."
The world is about to wake up, red fills the world, and there is silence between heaven and earth... That's it."
Xiao Xiao grabbed the pen and quickly wrote down these few sentences in his notebook, then muttered them in a low voice and pondered over them again and again.
"It's really not easy to understand." He finally admitted and nodded.
"But it is a gift after all." Zheng Qing carefully took out the Dharma book from his arms, stared at the sparrows above his head, and said calmly: "Maybe I should give her a gift in return."
Xiao Xiao noticed his abnormality and tilted his head slightly without making a sound. However, there were always some careless guys in the hunting team.
"Give her a gift in return?" The fat man came over with interest: "She and Elena are in the same hunting team. It's not good for you to just give her a gift like this."
"It's just a small gift to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha... I remember Xiao Xiao had a paperweight made of a tortoise shell?" At this point, Zheng Qing suddenly slapped the Dharma book heavily and shouted softly: "Ge Zhi Tan Xi, give to this bird!"
"
Seven or eight slender vines, like poisonous snakes that were hunting, instantly shot out of the void, wrapping up and rolling down the few sparrows that had been staying above the heads of the Forgiveness Hunting Team.
