Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

"What abnormal reaction?" Qin Xiao turned his head with an unfriendly look.

"According to what we have learned, the treasure is not a specific thing, but is to be integrated with the person. Although we don't know whether it is with the soul or something else, it is after all a combination of foreign matter and the body, so there will definitely be an immune reaction." Feng Yaoshan said, "So--"

"Feng Yaoshan!" The woman suddenly raised her eyebrows and glared at him, giving him a warning look, "You said too much."

Feng Yaoshan had no choice but to shut up.

After the woman finished speaking, she looked at Qin Xiao and said, "You don't need to know so much. You just need to know that we believe what you say."

Qin Xiao didn't say anything. He looked at her coldly and then looked at Qin Yun'an.

Qin Yun'an finally recovered and returned to his usual unreliable self.

"So we can go now, right?" Qin Yun'an ran up to the woman with a smile.

“No.” The woman glanced at him and said, “We need to go through several more detectors before we can get out.”

"What's the purpose of you going through so much trouble?" Qin Yun'an crossed his arms in confusion. "Didn't they say that whoever took the treasure would own it? Now you're checking this and that..."

"You can't be too poor to afford the fun, right? You gathered all the kids here, saying it was for some treasure, and now someone has got it and you want to check it again. You can't be planning to use that person to bring it out and then embezzle it, right?" Qin Yun'an smiled and got very close.

"What did you say?!" The woman was furious, and a sharp whip instantly appeared in her hand.

Qin Yun'an looked at the whip swinging towards him, his eyes full of coldness.

"Oh my, we're finally here."

In a flash, a black shadow flashed by, flew into the air and paused, then smashed towards the woman uncontrollably.

"Hey hey hey, get out of the way!"

The woman snorted coldly and swung the whip towards the black shadow, but she didn't expect that the figure that was clearly out of control before actually dodged sideways and fell straight to the ground.

"Ouch..." The black shadow sat up from the ground covered in dust, touched his head, and looked around blankly.

"It's you?!" The moment Mo Hanyu saw the man's face clearly, the cold air suddenly dissipated, and the air around him suddenly dropped to freezing point, making people feel cold all over.

The man looked up, and after seeing Mo Hanyu clearly, he smiled at him and waved: "Hey, long time no see."

Yin Xihui was stunned when he saw the man's face clearly.

Qin Xiao didn't understand what was going on. He glanced at Mo Hanyu, who was shivering all over, and asked, "Do you know him?"

Hearing this, the man turned to look at Qin Xiao and waved again: "Hello, we have met before."

Qin Xiao:?

Qin Xiao was thinking when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw another person coming out.

The man had a cold expression, his hair covering one of his eyes, which seemed to be wrapped in a bandage. He noticed the movement here, his black pupils turned slightly, and he was stunned when he saw Qin Xiao.

"And you?!" Mo Hanyu's expression became even uglier.

Qin Xiao was still very confused.

Yin Xihui understood what was going on and held his chin helplessly.

"Oh, don't be like this. We had no choice at that time. Now that we're out of here, let's just let it go. What do you think?" The boy sitting on the ground grinned and negotiated with Mo Hanyu.

Mo Hanyu's eyes were cold and he said nothing.

"You guys finally decided to come out?" Dong Muqi suddenly spoke up, and after seeing the two of them, he breathed a sigh of relief. "How could this happen? With your strength, you should have come out a long time ago—"

“Teacher—” The boy who came out first sighed, “You have to know that there are always people better than you. We almost died here several times.”

"He lost his ring, so he came out late." The boy with a cold expression said quietly.

Sitting on the ground: ...

After the boy who covered his eyes finished speaking, he looked at Qin Xiao and nodded at him as a greeting.

Qin Xiao looked at him steadily, and finally realized: "Oh, it's you."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at Mo Hanyu: "Aren't these the two who forced you to jump off the cliff--"

"Can you use your brain before you speak?" Mo Hanyu was simply incredulous. "Do you have to speak like this in front of so many people?"

Qin Xiao: ...

Qin Yun'an couldn't help but burst out laughing. When he saw Mo Hanyu turned his head away, he immediately stopped laughing, coughed twice and became serious.

The Taotie hiding in Qiu Puryue's hair couldn't help but laugh.

"...Ah, sorry." Qin Xiao was stunned by what Mo Hanyu said. After that, he turned his head and stopped talking.

When Mo Hanyu saw this, his anger immediately subsided, but his heart started beating again.

Was he too fierce just now?

The boy sitting on the ground watched the show with a smile, patted his butt, stood up, and turned to look at Dong Muqi: "Teacher, it should be fine if I just say it out, right?"

“No.” The woman said coldly, “You still need to go through inspection.”

"examine?"

Dong Muqi explained to them: "Didn't you feel it? The treasure has been taken by someone. Now we need to find out who took it. We need to check one by one... Anyway, as of now, you can get out even if you don't have the ring."

"Ah?" The boy showed a disappointed look, "If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have bothered with so much effort for so many days."

"How to check?" asked the boy who had been silent all the time.

"We don't know the details." Before Dong Muqi could say anything, the woman said, "Number 9, No. 27, congratulations on coming out, but you have to be screened with them."

Number 9 was the boy who covered his eyes. After hearing this, he glanced at the woman calmly and said nothing more.

"Dong Muling, they just came out and you are so fierce. Isn't this not good?" Feng Yaoshan smiled.

"Do I need you to teach me how to speak?" The woman frowned and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

Feng Yaoshan smiled, his eyes were particularly cold.

"Hey, hey, hey, alright, alright." Dong Muqi stepped in between the two of them in time, blocking one with one hand, "Stop arguing, stop arguing—you guys just find a place to rest, we'll leave after the successor comes."

The man who had been lying on the ground finally came to his senses. Seeing such a complicated scene, he said nothing and followed Dong Muqi's instructions and obediently walked to the tree next to him and sat down.

Qin Xiao and his companions looked at each other and found an empty space to sit down.

"...Oh, it's finally out." Qiu Puryue breathed a sigh of relief and lay directly on the ground, completely forgetting about the Taotie lying behind her head.

Taotie didn't move at all. As soon as Qiu Puryue lay down, she felt something soft under her head. She reacted immediately and hurriedly reached out to pull Taotie out.

"I'm sorry... I forgot." Qiu Puryue scratched his head embarrassedly.

Taotie glanced at her lazily and didn't bother with her.

"You were forced to jump off a cliff by those two? Hahaha..." Qiongqi emerged from Qin Xiao's collar, looked at Mo Hanyu excitedly, and laughed at him mercilessly, "Oh hahaha..."

Mo Hanyu: ...

Mo Hanyu clenched his fists.

"Those two are quite strong." Yin Xihui glanced at the young man swinging on a tree in the distance and said softly.

No. 27 wrapped several weeks of silk thread around his ankles and tied the other end of the thread to a tall tree trunk. He swung back and forth like a "hanged man", swinging higher and higher.

Mo Hanyu was speechless when he saw him like this.

No. 9 sat under the tree, crossed his legs quietly, closed his eyes and began to practice, completely different from those impetuous people who had just come out.

Qiongqi glanced at him and suddenly frowned.

Taotie seemed to sense something as well. He raised his head and sniffed the air, then turned to look at No. 9 and frowned.

"What's wrong?" Qiu Puryue asked in a low voice.

Taotie and Qiongqi looked at each other, shook their heads and said nothing.

The upside-down boy looked at them consciously. He had a head full of tangled hair, which was scattered in the air, revealing his thin eyebrows.

As No. 27 was swinging, he seemed to have thought of something. He exerted force and fell straight down from the highest point. His heels hooked on the branch and he sat down on it.

"Hey, where are you from?" No. 27 winked at Qin Xiao with a smile.

Qin Xiao glanced at him: "Yuhua."

"Wow, that's very close to here." 27 raised his eyebrows and smiled playfully.

"Where are you from?" Yin Xihui looked up and asked with a smile.

"Me? I'm from Xingchen." 27 looked calm and had no intention of lying. "He's from Wangqiu."

As he spoke, he pointed to number 9 under the tree.

"Xingchen?" Tian Miao raised his head, looked at him, and smiled at him without any malice, "...I am also from Xingchen."

27 As if by surprise, he blinked and slid down the tree trunk. The silk thread on his ankle disappeared without a trace.

"Then we are from the same hometown... What's your name?" 27 ran up to Tian Miao in a familiar manner and put his arm on his shoulder.

Mo Hanyu frowned and moved to the side unconsciously, clenching his fingers slightly, looking at him vigilantly.

"Tian Miao." Tian Miao simply felt that this person didn't seem to have any ill intentions, so he replied honestly.

"Really? Haha, I'm from the Tian family too. We have a strong affinity." 27 laughed.

From? Isn't his last name Tian?

Qin Xiao glanced at him.

27 While talking and laughing, he saw Taotie lying in Qiu Puryue's arms out of the corner of his eye and blinked in surprise.

"Can you still bring it out?"

"Ah..." Qiu Puryue was stunned and didn't know how to answer.

"It should be fine. When we found it, its mother had already died, leaving only the cub. We felt it couldn't survive, so we brought it out." Yin Xihui said, and suddenly felt a pain in his hand. He looked down and found that Taotie had bitten his hand, and blood flowed out instantly.

Yin Xihui was still smiling, and he lifted up Taotie with his hand, seemingly not feeling any pain at all: "Speaking of which, there are many magical beasts here that I have never seen before."

27 glanced hesitantly at his bloody hand, then looked at his expressionless smile, and said perfunctorily: "Yeah, these two don't look that big either, they look like they were born only a few days ago."

In order to hide better, Qiongqi and Taotie deliberately transformed themselves into the size of a palm.

Qiongqi looked up. In 27's eyes, it was a furry black ball that stretched its head out and glanced at him with its round eyes.

so cute……

27 I felt emotional.

"Are you familiar with that person?"

The next second, a powerful bass voice emanated from that petite and cute body.

27: ...

27's thoughts paused for a moment.

Qiongqi saw that he looked like he was struck by lightning, and stared at him blankly, frowning.

"what happened?"

Weren't you quite smart just now?

Yin Xihui could understand his reaction very well. He glanced at the Taotie that was still biting him, and finally couldn't help but apologize in a low voice: "Wrong, wrong, let go, or it will break if you don't let go."

Yin Xihui was not exaggerating. The Taotie bit his hand bone with just one bite. He could clearly feel the tender-looking fangs piercing his flesh and biting his hand bone. The Taotie only needed to apply a little more force to bite off half of his hand.

Taotie raised his eyelids lazily and saw that there was no pain on his face and he even had a smile on his face.

The eyes in Taotie's armpits blinked, then released his hand and dropped it to where his legs were folded.

Yin Xihui immediately covered the wound with his tattered clothes and tore off the cloth strip from his waist and tried to wrap it up.

Tian Miao glanced at him and gently stretched out his hand. A ball of soft aqua blue light flickered, wrapping around Yin Xihui's hand like a ball of water and seeping into his palm. In a moment, the tooth marks that were deep into the bone were completely healed.

Yin Xihui smiled and thanked him. Tian Miao waved his hand quickly, indicating that it was nothing.

Taotie glanced at Yin Xihui again, wondering what he was thinking. He ignored Qiu Puyue's anxious look beside him and lay down between Yin Xihui's legs, still looking like he hadn't woken up yet.

27 Although he was a little dazed, he came back to his senses when he saw Tian Miao's move. He looked at Tian Miao in surprise and then turned his gaze to Qiongqi: "The relationship is okay, what's wrong?"

Qiongqi stared at him, not knowing what he was thinking. He shook his head but stopped asking questions.

Qiu Puryue looked at Yin Xihui's bloody hand with some worry. Even though the wound had healed now, she still couldn't help but worry.

"...Doesn't it hurt?" Qiu Puryue asked softly.

Yin Xihui was wiping the blood off his hands. Hearing this, he paused, then smiled and said, "It's okay. Isn't it better now?"

Qiu Puyue glanced at the Taotie, who seemed to pose no threat, and felt a little depressed.

Perhaps it was because Taotie had always been in this lazy attitude during the time they had been together, which made her relax her attitude towards him.

Qin Xiao once told her that Taotie was a very ferocious beast, not much different from Qiongqi, but she subconsciously distinguished the two because of their daily behaviors. After all, Taotie had never shown a ferocious look in front of her, nor had it turned into a human, and had never been angry at her manipulation, so she always looked at Taotie as if he were a kitten or a puppy.

Qiu Puyue was totally unprepared for the sudden bite from the Taotie just now. Looking at Yin Xihui's bloody hand, a chill finally crawled up her spine.

She didn't see clearly what Taotie did just now, and didn't even realize when he disappeared from her arms. When she reacted, she found that he had bitten Yin Xihui's hand.

What if he didn't bite his hand?

What if he bit the neck?

Taotie didn't bite off Yin Xihui's hand in one bite, not because he couldn't do it, but because he didn't want to. What if... he thought about it one day?

What if one day he suddenly gets tired of them and wants to eat them?

Yin Xihui wiped the blood off his hands. Seeing Qiu Puyue still frowning in a daze, he smiled and waved his hands in front of her: "I've told you... Look, everything is fine now, right?"

Qiu Puryue finally came back to her senses. She looked at Yin Xihui's relaxed smile without saying anything. She reached out and held his hand. She looked at it carefully again and squeezed it gently: "Does it hurt?"

Yin Xihui laughed: "It's all healed, of course it doesn't hurt."

After hearing their words, Taotie finally raised his eyelids and looked at Qiu Puryue in confusion.

He took a light bite. Why did this kid have that expression?

He even tried to control the strength he used, but the child's hands were so tender that he managed to bite through it even though he was clearly holding it with enough strength.

But there's no way he would apologize. It's just a bite. Kid, don't be so petty.

Taotie thought about it and glanced at Qiu Puryue again.

So why did the kid look so frightened? He didn't do anything.
