Chapter 30: A Journey to the Jungle (1)
The more you go, the harder it is. There are more and more thick and slippery things on the ground. If you step on your feet, you don’t pay attention. If you stay for a while, your feet will be stuck. If you walk too fast, your feet will not stand firm and slide.
A group of six people, each holding a torch in his hand and walking silently.
Li Mei fought in the front, Ji Zheng pulled Wu Qi and followed him. Pan Yue walked behind Wu Qi, and the two servants carrying bags followed closely behind Pan Yue.
Several people walked, supported each other, and invisibly, they had a feeling of working together.
The surroundings became quieter and quieter. The fallen leaves under my feet stepped on them, but there was no sound I remembered.
The shade covering the sky was filled with moisture, and drops of dew dripped from top to bottom on the passers-by.
Li Mei doesn't like to touch this kind of dew. She always feels that dew touches her body, and always feels itchy somewhere in her body.
Wu Qi and Pan Yue insisted on following up the mountain. In order to ensure their safety, Li Mei had to walk ahead with great tension.
Ji Zhengze was guarding Wu Qi, holding a sword in his hand, and the blade showed a sinister murderous aura. Walking in this dense forest with green, it could even shine with orange light. Ji Zheng's sword emitted orange light, which could actually replace a torch to illuminate the surrounding environment.
Ji Zheng told Li Mei about the phenomenon of the treasure sword, and he thought this situation was strange.
Li Mei waved her sword a few times, except for the orange light. Li Mei shouted Huihui out and let it fly into the air to see if the route they were taking was correct. When Huihui fell on her shoulders, he nodded solemnly at her.
Li Mei returned the sword to Ji Zheng, and she said to Ji Zheng: "No matter what strange situation happens, there will always be two choices, moving forward or moving backward? I will definitely move forward."
Ji Zheng nodded. His meaning has always been very simple. Wherever Li Mei was going, wherever he followed him without any complaints.
"There are two choices to move forward, death and life. I choose to face it, whether it is ultimately life or death."
Ji Zheng nodded, and both of them looked at the four people behind him.
The two servants seemed to have taken their life and death very lightly. On this trip, Pan Yue had promised them that if they could come back alive, they would give them a free identity. They stayed in the slave camp all day long, and the mark of their past life was about to disappear. This trip was earned by them. Even if they died, they would be the same thing than repeating the same thing in the slave camp. Seeing unfair things happening in front of them, they were helpless and powerless. They thought about running away, but their family members were here. If they ran away, the punishments their families would be even more cruel. This time, their families got the easiest work arrangements, which was enough.
Wu Qi has always wanted to stay with Li Mei.
It turned out that he thought he liked such a woman very much, but after he had separated for many years, he saw him again, and was grabbed from the horse by her in a mess, and lay on Li Mei's arms. Before he could react, he was stuffed into Li Mei's mouth with half a pill of immortality. After that, he was the prince who was one of ten thousand people, and in full view of everyone, although the sealed carriage blocked everyone's sight... As long as he remembered, he hated Li Mei. Finally, he concluded that Li Mei was not the one he loved.
As for why I had to follow her, Wu Qi once considered this issue, but I still couldn't figure out why.
He once asked Pan Yue, and Pan Yue was as puzzled as him. Could it be that she was so magical that she attracted them to follow her and come here with her.
Li Mei couldn't get the answer, and looked at the trust in her eyes, Li Mei smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you, everyone. However, I can't tell you what happened here and where we can go, but! I have to go on, I want to know what is ahead."
Li Mei paused for a moment and looked at them again. It seemed that none of these people had a brain and did not realize the hidden dangers here.
"Do you still remember Luocheng?" Li Mei looked around the expressions of these people and sighed secretly. A few drops of water fell on her neck, icy, slid down her back, which made Li Mei very depressed.
"You have never seen the monsters in Luo City. You have never seen the ferocity of monsters when they eat people. This is your luck. I hope this luck will always be with you. I mean, if anything happens on the road, you cannot rush forward, protect yourself first."
The four of them nodded in a hurry, fearing that Li Mei would send them away.
While talking to them, Li Mei was silently making trouble with the falling water droplets.
What did she say and what were the key points? Li Mei kept recalling what she said. Li Mei shouldn't pay attention, or she didn't notice that Wu Qi and Pan Yue didn't listen to what she said. They both watched the fun and watched Li Mei with no good temper towards the water drop.
Li Mei used her hand to flick the falling water droplets to one side, frowned.
The dew was bounced to the side by her, and the water ball fell completely on the ground, splashing a small splash of water, silently.
The road will take a long time, and this is the only way to go. If possible, Li Mei hopes to walk alone.
If a man is shameless, he is really a unique means. Although he does not have the kind of woman who cry, make a fuss, or hangs her, he is also a naked threat.
"I sent soldiers to cut down the trees here to ensure that the road is unobstructed," Wu Qi said.
"Will it be a good time to burn it with fire? The plants here are so lush, so they must be good soil for planting," said Pan Yue.
"Queen, we bring a lot of wine in our carriage. When we use wine, the fire will be even stronger when it is burned." said a servant.
The other servant didn't say anything, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
When Wu Qi saw Li Mei without saying a word, he hurriedly said, "I can release the news, just say that there are countless treasures of the world, or immortal medicines hidden here. How many days can those capable people clean up this dense forest?"
"I am the best at delivering news." Pan Yue added another sentence.
The two servants who Li Mei never remembered their names also walked forward a few steps, with their eyes burning, afraid that Li Mei would put them outside.
Huihui checked the area of this dense forest in the air, and then rested in the dense forest. The birds living in the living learned that it has always been peaceful and no monsters have ever appeared. The reason why the dense forest is rarely visited is because the terrain in the woods is complex.
The time to pass was calculated, and it took seven days to walk.
Li Mei walked for a long time and saw no living creatures along the way, let alone fruits that could be eaten.
Her stomach was roaring, and there were still many blue lenses. Li Mei turned around and looked at the exhausted people behind her, not daring to stay any longer.
The things laid on the ground are getting stickier and more difficult to walk.
Some people fell down and some people helped them. Although these people had solemn faces, they did not retreat at all.
Concentrate your mind and look forward. The mind wanders in a fog and cannot touch the direction.
What they are about to encounter is the fog ahead.
If the spiritual consciousness does not distinguish the direction, how can you find the right path sometimes?
Li Mei looked up again and looked at the black one above her head. Drops of water dripped down from above, glowing with a faint orange light.
