A Race to (Be) The Top

Chen Jiu came walking, and Dou Kou was targeted by him for a stress response during this time, and immediately became 100% alert: "What are you doing here again?"

Zhenjiu only asked Ling Xiaolu: "Little brother, what are you going to do?"

"We're going to compete with Dou Niwan to catch foxes, Zhenjiu, are you going?"

Zhenjiu glanced across Dou Kou's body meaningfully through the mask: "There are people from Dou Niwan, of course I miss it too much."

If it weren't for the prohibition of free massacres in the arena, how could the people in Dou Niwan survive to this day in safety.

"You—" Dou Kou was about to lose his temper. Thinking of the purpose of this trip, he could only swallow his anger, "Give me a face this time, and the strength in the wild will speak in the future."

"Hmm..." Zhenjiu deliberately pulled out a long tone.

"Can I ask you once?" Dou Kou shouted angrily, "I just want to catch a fox for my daughter!"

"Why don't you apologize?" Ling Xiaolu asked.

Dou Kou raised his neck: "Apologizing is impossible! But I can fight him upright!"

Ling Xiaolu has nothing to do with such a stubborn Dou Kou, and it seems that Dou Niwan's unlucky days will continue.

Zhenjiu put her hands in her pockets: "Little brother, I won't go to catch foxes, but if anyone competes unfairly, call me anytime."

"Okay!" Ling Xiaolu responded instantly.

"I'm going, I'm going," Chang Huanxi pulled Ling to join in, "I haven't caught a pet yet, so I'm going to open my eyes too."

"let's go!"

Nan Xun saw a group of them leaving from a distance, and asked curiously, "Sister Chuya, brother Lubi, where are they going?"

"I heard that they went to catch the baby."

"Catch the baby? I want to go too."

Chu Ya stopped her: "You can't go."

"why?"

"All the skills used to catch pets are effective for unbound fan names, not to mention that there are so many of them, do you want to be immobilized, or scared to run around?"

Nan Xun stuck out her little tongue in fright: "Then I'd better not join in the fun."

……

Yunhu haunts the highest snow-capped mountain in Beimang, which is filled with thick fog.It is said that the mountain peaks soar into the clouds, and the fog is essentially clouds, hence the name Yunhu.

Li Zheng found a spacious and open flat land, picked up his long sword, and drew a rectangular coordinate system with a curve on the snow with a few swords.

Ji Meng frowned slightly: "Li Zheng, we agreed to catch the fox, what do you draw the advanced function for?"

"The location of the cloud fox at different times is different. These are its dynamic coordinates, but the probability of it appearing at each coordinate point is only 5%. Whether you can find it or not depends on your luck."

Ling Xiaolu:? ? ?

Dou Kou was even more confused: "What are you talking about... What are you talking about... Can you speak human language?"

Ji Meng glanced at the function graph on the ground, pulled up Ling Xiaolu, turned around and left.

"Hey, where are you going? You know the coordinates just by looking at them?"

Li Zheng followed them without hesitation, and Chang Huanxi followed Ling without any doubts. Only the people in Dou Niwan stayed on the ground and looked at each other, not knowing whether to follow or stay to solve the problem.

"You guys!" Dou Kou pointed at the figure on the ground annoyed, "Doesn't anyone know what this means?"

The followers tried very hard: "Patriarch, how about we do a carpet search?"

"Is it necessary to find Li Zheng for the carpet search?!" Dou Kou felt that he had been fooled, and Li Zheng must have deliberately asked him to dismiss him. The people at Lutou had already known where the fox was, "I can't think of a better-looking one." People, the more scheming they are!

"You guys, go to the vicinity to search for traces of foxes! You guys, follow Ji Meng and the others with me, don't let them get ahead of you!"

There was only one person left, "Patriarch, what about me?"

Dou Kou hates iron for being weak: "Idiot! Take a photo of the picture and post it to the world, and ask if anyone can understand what this thing means!"

"Oh, good patriarch!"

Ji Meng and his party came to the fork in the road: "There are two possible directions. The three of you go that way, and I will go this way with the deer."

Chang Huanxi agreed and ran away with Ling, but Li Zheng followed Ling Xiaolu at every step.

"What are you doing here?" Ji Meng was not happy to see him, "The two of them have no experience, what if they beat the fox to death by mistake?"

Li Zheng was noncommittal: "I'll go this way, it's safer."

Ling Xiaolu misunderstood the meaning of "safety" in Li Zheng's mouth: "Master, do you mean that Yunhu is dangerous and hard to catch?"

Li Zheng stared at him who didn't know about his situation, and said with a pun: "Yes, it's very dangerous."

Ji Meng also explained to him: "The wild cloud fox has a confusing skill, which can make people enter hallucinations. If you see it, you can't chase it too deep alone."

"Understood! Will you beat people indiscriminately if you enter the hallucination? This skill is worthy of being a vixen!"

Ji Meng came to a raised rock and reached out to touch the snow on it.

"If the calculation is correct, the haunting point of Yunhu is near here at this time."

"Then let's go look around here."

Ling Xiaolu was about to leave, but was stopped by Ji Meng.

"No, you can let it come to us by itself."

After finishing speaking, Ji Meng took out the ecstasy powder from his luggage.

Ling Xiaolu: ...why always do this trick!

"You can't use Ecstasy Powder." Li Zheng's voice came from diagonally behind.

"That's right!" Ling Xiaolu immediately echoed loudly.

Ji Meng didn't understand, so he asked, "Why can't it be used?"

"Because...because..." Ling Xiaolu racked his brains to think of a reason, "Because Yunhu is underage! Ecstasy powder is useless to it!"

Ji Meng looked very disbelieving: "Yunhu is also considered a minor? Are you sure?"

Ling Xiaolu gestured with his hand: "Have you never seen my master's one? It's just a big dumpling..."

Li Zheng couldn't stand it anymore: "In addition to Yunhu, there are other raptors and beasts here. If you attract them, Yunhu won't dare to show up."

This reason sounds much more plausible than Ling Xiaolu's, and Ji Meng half-believed and dismissed the ecstasy: "Then let's walk to the next coordinate point, maybe we can meet."

The three of them went deeper into the forest, and the further they went, the thicker the snow.Not to mention the white fox here, the limited breath of life only comes from the snow-covered coniferous trees.

"Li Zheng, are you sure you didn't make a mistake in drawing it?" Ji Meng didn't suspect that he had made a mistake in his calculation at all.

Li Zheng didn't make a sound, but Ling Xiaolu jumped up: "There are footprints over there!"

There are footprints, which means that Yunhu has been around not long ago.

Ling Xiaolu was full of admiration for Ji Meng: "How did you manage to calculate the coordinates all at once? You must not be a math genius!"

Ji Meng was a little embarrassed by his praise: "It's so simple, anyone can see it!"

"Who said it? I can't see it." Ling Xiaolu didn't expect to find the fox's trace so soon, and he was very excited, "Let's follow the footprints to catch up!"

Li Zheng called out the Beast Radar. Although it was not possible to lock the location for the time being, there was already a reaction, which proved that Yunhu was in the area.

His luck was so good that even he himself spent more than a week to get it in his pocket.

"Don't worry," Ji Meng wasn't as bluffing as Ling Xiaolu, "If you chase after him rashly, it's easy to scare him away."

"What should I do?"

Ji Meng's palms hanging on both sides suddenly exerted force: "Fixing curse!"

The powerful air blast exploded and spread, stretching for several miles, the sky was full of floating snow, and the pine trees turned green again.

"It can't escape for the time being." Ji Meng withdrew confidently.

Ling Xiaolu: ...I love you!Uncle, well!Want to have sex with dogs!

Ji Meng took a step forward, but found that Ling Xiaolu hadn't followed, he turned around puzzled, "Where's you?"

Li Zheng stepped between the two of them first, put his left hand on Ling Xiaolu's shoulder, and leaned slightly: "Tuer, what's wrong with you? Is it too cold and frozen? Didn't I tell you that in Beiman Don't turn on the ambient sensor too high?"

"..." For a moment, Ling Xiaolu didn't know which was more chilling - Ji Meng's sudden fixing spell, or Li Zheng's sudden concern?

Ji Meng turned his head in a big stride: "Are you stupid? Can you forget to adjust the environment sensor?"

Li Zheng's radar issued a small "Di Di" notification sound, and Ji Meng paused, of course he knew what the sound meant.

"Locked to Yunhu's position?"

Li Zheng casually glanced at the radar: "27 degrees southwest, 160 meters."

Ji Meng called out his radar, and it was exactly what Li Zheng said.

Li Zheng's long sleeves covered most of Ling Xiaolu's body, as if he was warming him.

"You go first, we will arrive later."

Ji Meng felt that something was wrong and was still hesitating, Ling Xiaolu struggled to speak: "My husband... hurry... don't let... run away..."

What an irresistible tone.

"Hurry up!" Ji Meng said, and quickly disappeared in the southwest direction.

Ling Xiaolu's immobilization state entered a countdown, 3, 2, 1, lifted, and finally healed.

"Master, we..." As soon as he grabbed Li Zheng's sleeve, his body could not move again.

The people in Dou Niwan cheered and ran past: "I found it! Yunhu is here!"

"Radar signal!"

Dou Kou shouted anxiously while running: "Don't mess up the formation! Everyone forms a circle and faces inward, and don't break the body chain!"

Ling Xiaolu scolded "I love you" a thousand times in his heart.

Fortunately, their attention was all on Yunhu, and no one cared about Ling Xiaolu and Li Zheng who were standing still.

Li Zheng quickly looked around, confirmed that there was no one there, and jumped onto a tree near Ling Xiaolu.

Continue to stay on the ground, the target is too obvious, maybe they will find it when they chase it.

The sound of people yelling came from the wind, and it seemed that the capture was not as smooth as expected.

Relying on Li Zheng's strong support, Ling Xiaolu was able to keep from falling from the tree trunk. He thought back when the two met for the first time, they seemed to be in the same situation.

Li Zheng's cold and inorganic voice sounded in the wind and snow: "If it's not good to wait, go offline."

Ling Xiaolu was glad he couldn't speak at the moment, if not, he didn't know what to say.

The white shadow under his feet flashed past, it was Yunhu!

Even though more than a dozen people in front joined together to encircle and suppress, this clever little guy escaped from the encirclement.

The people from Dou Niwan followed behind noisily.

"Fix the body! Hurry up and freeze it!"

"Patriarch, the holding spell is cooling down!"

"What about intimidation? And deterrence! I don't care what you use, you must not let it go away!"

Ling Xiaolu on the tree wobbled unsteadily, and was grabbed by Li Zheng forcefully. Beads of sweat visible to the naked eye oozed from his forehead, ran down his cheeks, and flowed to the tip of his chin, hanging there reluctantly.

Yunhu was controlled by the shock, lying on the ground, whining, and Ling Xiaolu, who was weighing on the top, suddenly felt sorry for it.

The people in Dou Niwan carefully surrounded Yunhu again: "Patriarch, I still have Ecstasy Powder here, do you want to use it?"

Ling Xiaolu tried his best to lift his eyelids wet with sweat, and vaguely recognized Li Zheng mouthing to him: Offline!

If he had known this would happen earlier, Ling Xiaolu would never have come!It's easy to go offline, but you have to make up a reason to Ji Meng to explain why you suddenly went offline, and you might have to face the prince's anger again. Why do you think this person has such a temper?

Resigned to his fate, Ling Xiaolu began to recite "emergency offline".

"Stop it! Stop it!" There was a commotion below.

Yunhu broke free from the shackles of the shock, passed between Dou Kou's legs with a "swoosh", and ran into the forest again.

Dou Kou jumped up anxiously: "They are all trash! Chase me!"

All the clattering people disappeared again, and Ling Xiaolu had experienced ups and downs.

Li Zheng's arm tightened suddenly, Ling Xiaolu saw Ji Meng riding a shadow deer running from a distance, looking around.

"Rerby? Ruby!"

This guy, instead of catching the fox, looked for him everywhere. God knows how dangerous he is hiding here!

Ji Meng searched the scene anxiously and angrily, but he didn't find that Ling Xiaolu was looking at him weakly from the tree above his head.

Where have people gone!Li Zheng also disappeared, the prince was very angry!

He set off to look for it, and the sweat bead lingering on Ling Xiaolu's chin finally couldn't escape the call of the earth, and fell vertically, hitting the snow where Ji Meng stayed impartially.

Li Zheng supported Ling Xiaolu and jumped back to the ground: "I'll take you back first."

Ling Xiaolu's speech is not very fluent yet, his tongue is stiff: "I'm going back... Dongye, it's easier to explain when I turn back like this."

Not only did Ji Meng need to make up excuses, but more importantly, he didn't know what to say if he was left alone with Li Zheng.

Li Zheng stared at him vaguely for a moment: "Okay."

Ling Xiaolu didn't dare to look at him, and lowered his head to read the article.

The shouting sound came again, Ling Xiaolu panicked, and the transmission reading was interrupted.

"Apprentice."

Li Zheng wanted to catch him, but Ling Xiaolu subconsciously turned backwards: "I'm going!"

Li Zheng didn't expect him to run away, and he was a step late in tracking down the tree species. Ling Xiaolu's figure disappeared into the snow-covered forest.

"Tu'er!" Li Zheng's voice was drowned in the noisy voices from far and near.

Dou Kou rode a white tiger and stopped beside him: "Beauty, have you seen the fox?"

Li Zheng turned his head sharply, with anger in his eyes, Dou Kou subconsciously manipulated the white tiger to take two steps back.

Li Zheng flicked his long sleeves, fanned the gust of wind, and flew into the forest, missing his back a few times.

Dou Kou had lingering fears: "I didn't expect Li Zheng to be so scary when he got angry." He thought again, "But it's still very beautiful."

He raised his voice: "Give me a carpet search! Don't miss a single place!"

Ling Xiaolu fled to the deepest part of the forest alone, where it was extremely quiet, covered in snow and shrouded in clouds and mist, presumably no one would come again.

The ambient music here is also extremely moving, illusory, weeping, like a snow elf singing in the ear, every word and every beat comes from a dream.If it weren't for this tense situation, Ling Xiaolu might still be able to sit down and listen intoxicated.

Ling Xiaolu wiped his eyes against a fluffy mass in front of him, for fear of misreading it.

"... Yunhu?"

The snow-white Yunhu sat obediently under the big tree in front of him, staring at him with black eyes.Maybe they are "the same kind", the existence of Ling Xiaolu can't pose a threat, and it has no intention of running away.

Ling Xiaolu's heart is full of contradictions, the goal is in front of him, but he doesn't have any skills to tame pets.

He thought and thought, although he can't catch pets, he can "catch" pets, as long as he catches them, let Li Zheng come over and tame them.

He felt that this idea was good, and approached on tiptoe: "Little baby, don't run, come to brother."

Ling Xiaolu flew into the air, and Yunhu was wagging his big tail not far from him, as if deliberately annoyed him.

"...You are not good." Ling Xiaolu got up and wanted to chase again, but Yunhu suddenly jumped up and turned around in the air.

The scene in front of Ling Xiaolu was distorted. He looked around in a panic, but his vision became more and more blurred...

Li Zheng finally found Ling Xiaolu in the depths of the forest, but he looked very strange, standing there blankly, and didn't even respond to approaching him.

"Disciple?" Li Zheng tentatively called him, then shook his hand in front of him, Ling Xiaolu didn't blink his eyes.

It turned out that he was hit by Yunhu's illusion, Li Zheng heaved a sigh of relief.He picked up the sword formula, and was about to apply the method of undoing it, but Ling Xiaolu opened his mouth without warning.

"Master..."

Li Zheng's movements stopped.

Ling Xiaolu stared forward with a dull expression, maybe in his hallucination, there is also the existence of Li Zheng.

His voice was calm, slow, without too many ups and downs.

"Master, I have been avoiding you on purpose, not because you are too fierce to me, nor because you let me plant the land, feed pets, and repair the yard...

"I avoid you because you are too smart, I can't seem to keep any secrets from you.

"In my eyes, you are not only smart, but also good-looking and powerful. You are the kind of great god I fantasized to be before playing games. You are perfect in every aspect. And I always think that your perfection, Your strength is taken for granted.

"If you didn't say that sentence, that you also practiced from a novice, I would never have thought that you also grew up from my stage, and you also had a period when you were ignorant of the game. You were not born So powerful, you also had a master.

"I'm a bit envious of your master, because she has seen Li Zheng in the novice period, and maybe she has seen you make the low-level mistakes that a novice would make. She taught you the common sense of the game that you taught me, and showed you the world... …These are things that I could never have imagined when I saw you and me at our peak for the first time.

"I think she should be as important to you as you are to me. In the game, I know your name is Li Zheng, and I know what you look like. But after leaving the game, we are strangers in the vast sea of ​​people. You don't know each other. Me, I can't recognize you either. If one day, you suddenly leave here without making a sound, I will desperately want to ask, why did you leave?

"Even if this reason doesn't change the ending of your departure, it won't bring you back here. But I still want to know what made you make such a decision, what made you cut off the relationship between us. The only link between the two is what causes you to no longer feel nostalgic for this world."

A tear fell silently from the corner of his dull eye.

"Master, I often act stupid in front of you because I don't know how to respond to your expectations.

"Just today, the you who I thought was invincible fell in front of me. I hated myself for being powerless. I couldn't revive you like Qingmei. I heard the opponent deliberately mocking you. I can't imagine that in a world larger than the arena In the several times of the arena, amidst the cheers of mountains and tsunami, and in the eyes of all the players in the server, how did you face their ruthless ridicule after winning by yourself, master.

"Master, just treat me as a glass heart. From now on, I don't want to see you lose to anyone again. Regardless of Shiba, Qingmei, or anyone else, I hope you will always be invincible, forever Be the perfect and invincible master in my mind."

He slowly raised his right hand, extending his index finger.

"I have nothing to help Master, only this."
