C37 (1/2)

I ran in front and shouted without looking back, ”Of course it's a disaster, but we have to survive if we want to.”

I led the way up the hill, into the dense forest. The fog was thick again, and I couldn't see my fingers in front of me. When the temperature dropped below freezing, my feet became colder and colder.

With a crunching sound, I stepped to the side and broke a bone. I looked down and saw that the bone was calcified, and the weathering was severe. A few years ago, Iron Head had walked around in a circle. ”More than one person died here.”

I turned my head and said, ”Let's leave quickly!” ”Huang Li is more familiar with the terrain here than we are. If we let her plot things, it would be very troublesome.”

Ding Lan Xin came to my side. ”Is there really an immortal plant in this world? What was the purpose of Huang Li using so much effort? If you are looking for a scapegoat, why are you looking for trouble? ”

I smiled and analyzed her words. ”I've thought about this before. The experience we've gone through doesn't require us at all. The only explanation is that she underestimated us.”

”What do you mean?”

I replied, ”He didn't think that Sun Cheng would ask me to protect him, much less that I was a descendant of the Spirit Channeling Sect. I also didn't think that the trouble caused by her would be resolved one by one.

Ding Lan Xin looked at the item at my waist. ”What is this thing? Is it very important?” More important than being immortal? ”

”Will not come for eternity?” Haha, how can you believe that! ” I laughed. ”Can you live forever? ”I don't know, but after she finishes eating that piece of Chan Yuji Grass, she'll definitely become a monster that doesn't look human or ghost.”

Ding Lan looked at him contemptuously. She cast a glance at the conch plate and asked, ”Hey, can you locate this round plate and help us get out of here?”

I shook my head. I held the conch plate with both hands and turned it left and right, making creaking sounds that sounded like a clock. ”This thing can't be located. It can only freeze a ghost.”

”Stop researching and think of a way to get out of here, or are you both going to starve to death here?”

Ding Lan Xin and I laughed. Ding Lan put her hand on Tie Tou's shoulder and pouted at me. She proudly said, ”What a blockhead. The Yellow Springs is no longer the Yellow Springs of the past. With him here, are you still afraid of starving to death in the forest?”

Tie Tou looked at me with a questioning expression, then looked at Ding Lan Xin.

When the sky turns dark, we have finally figured it out. Overall, we have completed the mission. Although there are some flaws, we have still achieved our goal. However …

In the evening, I sat on my bed in the hotel room, spinning the conch tray in my hand. There were twelve words clockwise (ugly and ugly), five words counterclockwise (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth), and two against five.

When the hour and the five elements were transferred to the opposite positions, I immediately felt dizzy and unable to control my thoughts and gaze. I immediately disordered the plate and only then did I feel a little better.

After taking two deep breaths and rubbing his temples, his mind went into a daze. His fingers slowly rotated. When the five elements interacted, there was no change at all. Could it be …

I was still thinking when I heard a sharp knock on the door and opened it. I saw Ding Lan Xin and Tie Tou standing there in panic, Ding Lan's heart was even more anxious. They were in their pajamas, and they didn't even have their slippers on.

I blinked. ”What happened to you? Is there a meeting? ”

Ding Lan shook her head woodenly. Iron Head took a deep breath, ”Huang Quan, why don't we leave? I think it's not safe here. The earthquake just now, didn't you feel it? ”

”Earthquake?”

The duo nodded their heads simultaneously.

I looked doubtfully at the two of them. I turned my head to look at the conch plate on the bed and let the two of them in. They were sitting on chairs and seemed uneasy.

I sat cross-legged on the bed, feeling relieved for them. ”Huang Li? She … ”I don't dare to come. If her ability really is above mine, then after we obtain Chan Yuji, we won't be able to leave so easily.”

”Is she also a Daoist?” Ding Lan asked with raised eyebrows.

”He's not qualified!” With a cursory reply, I shifted the position of the conch plate to form a counterpoint. The dizziness immediately struck me, but this time, I was prepared. I wasn't as strong as before. I raised my head and saw blood spurting out of both of their noses like mercury from the ground.

I endured the dizziness and adjusted the direction of the needle. Iron Head pointed towards the conch plate in my hand. His mouth opened and fell limply to the ground. Ding Lan's heart did the same.
