Lord Tianshi, please take your seat

next morning

For the rushing people, they packed their things early and set off on the road.A chatterbox Mo Tianchen was added to the group, which made it extremely lively.

Ye Zhinan walked in front with heavy steps. Looking carefully, the road was still a little unstable.

Luo Qi was a little worried, and walked quickly to Ye Zhinan's side: "Zhinan, but you didn't rest well last night?"

Ye Zhinan rubbed her sleepy eyes and shook her head. She refused to admit that it was because of the ghost story Mo Tianchen told last night that she didn't sleep well.

But the instigator didn't have this self-awareness, he rushed forward and pierced Ye Zhinan.

"Ye Zhinan, Ye Zhinan, you can't be..."

"No, no!" Ye Zhinan categorically denied: "I am a majestic celestial master, how could I be so frightened that I can't sleep."

Mo Tianchen had the same expression as before: "Oh~ so that's the case, I was so scared by my ghost story that I couldn't sleep~"

Ye Zhinan expressed that he couldn't take it with the cheap tone, but at the moment he really wasn't in the mood to mess around with Mo Tianchen, so he rolled his eyes and walked forward quickly.

Behind them, Zhong Wanning was holding an umbrella and walking shoulder to shoulder with Xia Chuyu.

The soul and body have stabilized a lot. Because the two are very close, Xia Chuyu's shoulder always bumps into Zhong Wanning unconsciously.

She secretly looked up, because Xia Chuyu could only see Zhong Wanning's slender eyelashes clearly because of the backlight.

After accidentally bumping into Zhong Wanning again, Xia Chuyu silently moved her body aside.

Suddenly, her waist felt hot, and Xia Chuyu was brought under the umbrella by Zhong Wanning again, getting closer than before.

Xia Chuyu looked up, just in time to meet those brown eyes, she turned her face away in a panic, Xia Chuyu felt a burning sensation in her ears.

Zhong Wanning didn't say a word, just put the hand on Xia Chuyu's waist, but never moved it away.

Everyone was a little tired from the journey. Although it was late summer, the air was still a little stuffy.

Sensing that everyone was a little tired, Mo Tianchen held Qing Mingjian and said, "I know there is a shortcut near here, why don't we take the shortcut and go back to the mountain."

Hearing this, Ye Zhinan's eyes lit up: "Really, then you didn't say it earlier." Then he turned his head and asked Zhong Wanning behind him: "Senior Sister."

Mo Tianchen patted his head in embarrassment: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that this shortcut requires you to cross a forest, the terrain is muddy, and it's very difficult to walk."

Looking up, the sunlight above his head seemed to be getting bigger, glanced at Xia Chuyu beside him, Zhong Wanning nodded: "That's okay, there are many trees in the forest, so it can avoid the scorching sun."

Zhong Wanning also agreed, so Mo Tianchen led a group of people to take a shortcut.

Mo Tianchen seemed to be very familiar with the surrounding area, and led everyone to the vicinity of the forest soon.Looking at the scorching sun rising above his head, he unconsciously wiped the sweat off his head, turned his head and said to everyone: "By going through this forest, we can save a day."

The back of Baiqu Town is connected to the bridge capital, which is surrounded by waterways. It will take some time to bypass the waterway and return to the mountain. A lot of distance.

Xia Chuyu felt a little strange, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. Looking at Mo Tianchen standing in front of her, she covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Mr. Mo seems to be very familiar with this place, and it is connected to the little-known forest path. It's all so clear."

Hearing this, Mo Tianchen seemed to smile shyly, and waved his hands: "This dense forest was also mentioned by the people in Baiqu Town when I distributed the charms."

Ye Zhinan turned his head to look at Mo Tianchen: "Really, why haven't I heard of it?"

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Luo Sheng: "Brother, have you heard the people mention it?"

Luo Sheng shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."

"Oh, you two must be lazy." While talking, Mo Tianchen stood between the two of them and pulled them forward: "Come on, let's go, it won't be easy to tell when the sun goes down." direction."

"Mo Tianchen, you're pressing on my hair!" Ye Zhinan was in pain, the hair scattered behind his shoulders was a little painful due to the pressure of Mo Tianchen's arm.

Hearing this, Mo Tianchen took his arm off Ye Zhinan's shoulder, but still said unforgivingly: "You deserve it, who made you so short."

Hearing this, Ye Zhinan frowned: "Mo Tianchen, are you looking for death!"

"Oh, the tigress is beating someone~" With a long and mean tone, Mo Tianchen really deserves a beating.

The two ran towards the depths of the forest in a fight.

Luo Sheng, who was behind him, shook his head helplessly, and looked back at Zhong Wanning and Xia Chuyu: "Senior Sister and Miss Ah Chu, hurry up and follow."

After saying that, he raised his foot to catch up with the two who were making a fuss in front of him.

The noon sun began to become dazzling, Zhong Wanning lowered the umbrella in his hand a little: "Follow me closely."

These words were a bit light, and Xia Chuyu had already melted into the noon sun before she could hear them clearly.

After entering the forest, because of the dense forest, the heat around the body dissipated a lot.

Ye Zhinan and Mo Tianchen were a little tired from chasing, so they stopped fighting.Raising his hand to fan the wind, Luo Sheng passed the water bottle in his hand in a timely manner.

The weather was already hot, and with the running just now, Ye Zhinan didn't care about Sanqi 21, and just took a few big gulps.

Wiping the corners of his mouth, he handed the water bottle back to Luo Sheng: "Thank you, brother."

Luo Sheng shook his head helplessly: "For the time being, there is no inn nearby, so don't stay here anymore, save some energy, and don't just cause trouble for senior sister."

Speaking of Senior Sister, Ye Zhinan looked behind him, Zhong Wanning and Xia Chuyu were still walking side by side slowly, without the travel and dust that people on the road should have.

The plain oiled paper umbrella is painted with the unique spells of Tianshi Mansion, but it complements the umbrella surface perfectly.One tall and one short, both of them were wearing plain robes, their eyes were looking up...

Ye Zhinan couldn't help smacking his lips, feeling a little regretful, because Zhong Wanning's umbrella was a little low, and he could only see the jaw line, but because Xia Chuyu was shorter, he could see it instead.

Seeing the hand holding the umbrella handle, Ye Zhinan thought, Senior Sister's fingers are enough to see, they are really a pair of slender fingers, not just romantic.

Seeing Ye Zhinan's sudden quiet look, Luo Sheng knew what she was thinking, and lightly tapped her forehead with his index finger: "Zhinan, don't be rude."

She curled her lips and said oh.The two obediently waited for the picturesque two to come forward, and called out obediently: "Senior Sister."

Zhong Wanning nodded and responded, "Hurry up and get out of this forest before sunset."

The two nodded and started to move forward.

There was a sudden silence in the ear, and Ye Zhinan realized that there was one person missing: "That guy Mo Tianchen, why didn't he see anyone?"

Luo Sheng also reflected at this moment: "Isn't Mr. Mo in front?"

The two looked at each other, Luo Sheng looked back at Zhong Wanning and said, "Senior Sister, let's go ahead to find the way first."

Ye Zhinan echoed: "I don't know where Mo Tianchen has gone, so my senior brother and I will go and have a look first."

With dark eyes, Zhong Wanning moved closer to Xia Chuyu again: "Okay, be careful."

The two walked away, only Zhong and Xia were left in the same place.

After walking this distance, Xia Chuyu felt more and more that something was wrong. What...is it missing?

"Let's go."

The familiar voice brought back Xia Chuyu's mind, looked up, Xia Chuyu nodded quietly.

Jingle bell, jingle bell...

The soul-calling bell on Zhong Wanning's waist began to ring faintly, and there was a sudden breeze in the forest, and the hair brushed against Xia Chuyu's cheek was a little itchy.

The two tacitly understood each other, and they continued to move forward slowly.

The bell still made a regular and crisp sound. If I didn't know it, I thought it was Zhong Wanning's walking movement that caused the bell to ring.

But at this moment, the two of them knew that the summoning bell would not ring at all on weekdays.

Ye Zhinan and Luo Sheng, who were going to explore the way ahead, were nowhere to be seen. In the huge forest, there seemed to be only two people left, feeling a little lonely.

Zhong Wanning only felt that her feet were cool, she lowered her head, and at some point, it started to fog up.

The speed of the fog rising was much faster than expected, and after a while, the vision in front of him began to blur.

The white cloth wrapping the money sword on the back seemed to be loose, and a corner of the cloth was leaking and swaying with the breeze.

With the index finger and middle finger together, and with a wave of the arm, the golden light blade cuts forward like a sharp sword, but the fog seems to be able to swallow everything, and the golden light disappears in the thick fog without a sound.
