C106 (1/2)
The journey was smooth, the car had already reached the highway near the Yutu Mountains. Due to the oil problem on the road, it was delayed for a long time, otherwise, it would have taken them only to arrive in the evening. However, if one wanted to enter, one had to walk.
All the way I wondered, how on earth could I change back into something like this? Right now, it's really too sad, I don't know anyone, and I don't even know what would happen if I were to meet Xue Ke, I have to first think of how to prove my identity.
”Wait, Big Brother Lin.” Lin Meng'er suddenly called out to me.
”Hmm? ”What's wrong?” I was leading the way in front, conveniently thinking of how to prove my identity after meeting Xue Ke. Hearing Lin Meng'er's call, I stopped and turned to ask.
Lin Meng'er raised her head and looked at the sky. She raised her hand high into the air, and a large amount of dazzling light gathered in her hand. Then, Lin Meng'er waved her arm in my direction, and the light shot towards my body! Instantly, a rippling light barrier formed around my body.
”Meng Er, this?”
”Hur hur. ”Okay, let's go.” I smiled. He turned around and prepared to continue walking. However, my pupils suddenly contracted. There was actually an additional figure in front of me! ”It's Xue Ke!”
Lin Meng'er also noticed the sudden appearance of the figure. The light beam that gathered in her hand had not dissipated yet, and immediately condensed again, covering the entire area, and even Xue Ke was covered, but Xue Ke did not make a move. Instead, they looked me in the eye.
”Xue, Xue Ke, you know me?” I was stunned for a moment because all the introductory remarks I had prepared and the words to prove my identity were useless.
”Of course I do. The smell of a person can't be changed.” Xue Ke said indifferently.
”Big Brother Lin, is she a cat demon?” Lin Meng'er asked.
”Meng'er, be polite. Her name is Xue Ke. Alright, stop being so alert, Xue Ke will not hurt me. ” Then, he turned to look at Xue Ke. ”Right? Xue Ke? ”
Xue Ke made a sound of acknowledgement, then said: ”Just now, when I sensed some energy fluctuations over here, I came over to take a look. Why did you come to my place? ”
Xue Ke, I have been cursed, all the energy in my body has been lost, and I am still unable to recover. At that time, I already killed the caster, but this curse has not been broken yet. That's why I came to you to help me. ”
”Oh? A permanent curse? ”Come with me and take a look.” With that, Xue Ke turned and walked back.
Lin Meng'er grabbed my arm and shook her head slightly. I smiled and patted Lin Meng'er's head. ”It's fine. Let's go.”
Then he followed. Lin Meng'er also followed along, but she still maintained a cautious posture, making it convenient for her to take action at any time. I didn't really care about it either. Although Meng'er's strength is pretty good now, compared to Xue Ke, it's completely incomparable. It had only been a few days since I parted ways with Xue Ke before I came over to ask for help. My face was also a little hot, but Xue Ke didn't seem to mind helping me, not to mention that it was free.
As Xue Ke and I walked deeper into the mountains, I was also narrating the details of what happened the last time we split up, as well as the process of getting hit by the curse.
The surrounding trees grew increasingly messy and thick, as if they had entered a primitive forest. The trees here have not been cut down? How strange.
As we went deeper and deeper, I could faintly hear faint roars coming from deep within the mountains.
”Hai.” Xue Ke sighed lightly, and said: ”You'll know when we get there.”
Is there some other secret here? From the sound of that roar, it seemed to be that of a woman's, and there was a sharp edge to it.
