Express delivery is a high-risk occupation

Dao Ling's hostile energy surged, and the blade energy drew a semicircular silver arc in the night. It was like lightning, and all the black shadows within a radius of seven or eight meters were cut off with a flick of their fingers, and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

Xu Mu took a photo with his mobile phone. It turned out that those shadows with teeth and claws were all branches and leaves of camphor trees.

Are the dryads really at work?

He held up his mobile phone and looked around at the tall camphor trees. If he checked carefully, there were indeed a few camphor trees nearby that were unusually thick, and they should be quite old.Could it be that after a long time, he cultivated to become a master?

For the little guy who is not yet at the second level, Feng Yuan's brows moved slightly, and he secretly let go of Jieyin's fingers.

[Ah Choo!it stink! 】The husbands in the Qilin Pearl sneezed solidly and couldn't help complaining.It wanted to go out to meet that thing, but it didn't expect to be smoked back as soon as it showed its head.

branch?Zhao Yan stared at the pile of things on the ground, and put away his posture. In the past, he didn't bother to make a move with such a weak evil spirit.

【General...】

I don't know whether he noticed that Zhao Yan's attitude was not friendly enough, or because he was intimidated by the powerful aura of these people in front of him. The black shadow finally didn't approach them this time, and stayed at a distance of five or six meters away from them, swaying slightly, his movements and tone were different. With a little cautious taste.

Qin Mian lay motionless on the ground, not knowing what was going on.

"Little white face, are you okay?" Zhao Yan frowned and kicked Qin Mian's waist with the back of his foot, but the other party remained silent.

Seeing that the black shadow had no intention of attacking again, Feng Yuan and Xu Mu moved closer to Qin Mian, squatting down to check Qin Mian's breath.

"It's okay, I'm just dizzy." Facing Xu Mu's nervous gaze, Feng Yuan said gently.

"Tsk, really weak." Zhao Yan let go of his clenched fists with a look of disgust on his face.

[General, back... back. 】

The camphor tree branches around were shaking, as if excited.

Xu Mu looked up at the camphor trees around him, and then at Zhao Yan. This guy knows Dao Ling?

"Let's send Qin Mian back to the hotel first. It's best to find a doctor for examination." Feng Yuan suggested that after all, Qin Mian is just an ordinary person recovering from a serious illness and has a special status. It's better to send him to a safe place as soon as possible.It just happened that Qin Mian said just now that he and Shi Kai booked the same hotel.

"Yeah." Xu Mu nodded, agreeing very much. Last time at the crossroads, he personally experienced Qin Mian's great manager's long-winded pattern. Not to mention Qin Mian's injuries, it was just a small scrape on his face. Skin, enough for them to accept at least half an hour of "nagging crit".

"Let's say it first, don't expect this general to carry this little face." Zhao Yan folded his arms, as if he was too lazy to help.

"There's no need for so many people to bother. I'll send him back and contact Shi Kai to take care of him. You guys wait here for a while. If you find anything, don't act rashly." Feng Yuan made a quick decision.With Zhao Yan's ability, this guy in the forest is not his opponent at all, plus Fu Zhu, Xu Mu is definitely safe and sound.It is more convenient to go and return quickly to avoid people's eyes by being alone.

[General...general, don't...don't go...]

Finding Feng Yuan walking out with Qin Mian on his back, thinking that Zhao Yan and Xu Mu were going out too, the voice suddenly became irritable, dancing branches and leaves quickly surrounded him.

"Be honest!" Dao Ling frowned and glanced at the restless branches and leaves, and the surroundings immediately became quiet.

"Brother, be careful, call me anytime." Xu Mu only paid attention to telling Feng Yuan, not paying attention to the movement around him.

[It's better to go with the head, this place smells so bad. 】A certain dissatisfied and complained in the unicorn bead.

Sending Feng Yuan and Qin Mian away, Zhao Yan found a pleasing camphor tree and leaned on it carelessly, "Xiao Mu, there are monsters here, remember not to wander around. Cut off those who... Nine times out of ten it is it."

"People nowadays are weird. The rope is just a rope, but it still has a strange name," Zhao Yan scratched his head and complained in a low voice.

Xu Mu: ……………

[Will... General...]

The leaves trembled, and the voice hesitated to speak.

Xu Mu held Tang Dao, looked at Zhao Yan, and then turned his head to look at those branches that wanted to move but dared not move, "General, it seems to know you."

"Know me?" Zhao Yan pointed to the tip of his nose in disbelief.

Xu Mu nodded, "It seems to have been calling you just now."

"Impossible. Over the years, the general has only known two of the herbaceous spirits. One is the crabapple flower spirit, who was struck to death by lightning 200 years ago to save a scholar, and the other is the willow spirit, who was killed by a Taoist priest 90 years ago. Burnt to death. They must have nothing to do with the camphor wood in front of us." Zhao Yan said firmly.

Xu Mu: ……………

That is to say, it means that all the grass and tree spirits who know you feel a little miserable?

【General... Arrow...】

That voice seems not very used to speaking, or the response is relatively slow, as if talking on a 2K Internet speed, the speech speed is slow, and only one or two words can be stumbled out.

See?Xu Mu blinked in confusion, could it be that he met?

"Did you live nearby before, or did you pass by here? Did you pass a tree like this?" Xu Mu looked around, desperately using his imagination.The dirt road outside was not really an official road before, was it?

Are slippers floating in your head?Dao Ling rolled his eyes that flew to the sky, and raised his chin arrogantly, "This general has lived in the capital since he was a child, and has never been to the south of the Yangtze River."

"Then do you have any relatives or friends living in Jiangnan?" the courier brother urgently asked without being discouraged.

This monster keeps calling Zhao Yan a general, so he must have seen Zhao Yan before.

"How can it be..." Zhao Yan paused in the middle of his sentence, pondered for a while, and then continued, "Three years after I entered the camp, my uncle seems to have been transferred to Jiangnan. It should be that the whole family moved south."

"Does their family live nearby?"

Zhao Yan simply shook his head, "I don't know."

Until he died on the battlefield, he never visited his uncle in the south of the Yangtze River, so he didn't know where the house was.

【look……】

The surrounding branches and leaves swayed slightly, and the sound seemed to be a little anxious. A few branches swayed between Zhao Yan and Xu Mu, and finally stretched towards Xu Mu, dragging him to the top of one of the camphor trees.

"Bold!"

Zhao Yan yelled violently, and raised his hand to release blade energy.

"I'm fine, there seems to be something here." Xu Mu, who was dragged into the canopy, held Tang Dao in one arm, and waved the arm holding the phone to Zhao Yan to report his safety.Then he stood on a thick branch, carefully raised his mobile phone, and shone the light on the trunk of the tree, which was obviously protected by a group of branches and leaves.

The lights are everywhere, and the hydrangea-like branches and leaves spread out, revealing the things inside. On the yellow-brown tree trunk with longitudinal cracks, there are short branches that have been broken off long ago.

The dark-brown short branch is only as long as an adult's finger, and a white ring three to four centimeters wide hangs on it. It looks like a ring, but it is two or three times the size of an ordinary ring. The yellow-brown cracks look like jade.

Zhao Yan jumped up and lightly landed on the branch next to Xu Mu. Following Xu Mu's light, he casually looked at the cut branch, and then his eyebrows moved slightly.

"This thing should be a ring." Xu Mu turned his head, pointed at the white ring and looked at Zhao Yan inquiringly.There seemed to be some pattern engraved on the outer wall of the white ring. The courier brother tilted his head and looked in the direction of the white ring for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out.

Zhao Yan looked at the cut branch silently, and reached out to take off the "ring".The surrounding branches and leaves trembled, as if suppressing something.

"Don't move around..." According to the situation surrounded by the hydrangea just now, it must be protecting this thing.Xu Mu was trying to stop Zhao Yan, but the other party had already put the thick white ring on his right thumb.

"韘(she), it is used to draw the string when archery." Zhao Yan demonstratively drew a bow and archery posture.

Wrench?

Xu Mu looked around nervously holding Tang Dao, and he was relieved when he found that the branches and leaves had no intention of attacking, "You really know each other."

"Of course I do." Zhao Yan stroked the white ring lightly with his fingertips, "This jade ring was used by the general back then."

"Your?" Xu Mu looked at Zhao Yan in surprise, "Then why did it appear here?"

Zhao Yan shook his head, "In the spring of that year, my general competed with others in the racecourse outside the city gate. A hundred paces away, he struck out the copper coins hanging on the brocade rope. This jade 韘 should have been destroyed during that competition. , has long been abandoned." As for why it appeared here, he was also very puzzled.

[Ask it yourself, it is tossing about every movement in the woods. 】Fu Zhu couldn't help but remind Xu Mu.

it?

"It made those just now?" Xu Mu looked at the jade pen in surprise. He always thought it was a dryad, but it turned out to be a spirit?

【General......】

It was extremely difficult for Yuwei to pronounce words, but she could still hear her excitement.

Zhao Yan took off the jade and put it in the palm of his hand, "It is the most evil in this forest, and it should be the one who manipulated those branches and leaves to attack us just now."

[Now the one with the most evil spirit is obviously this seat! 】An unconvinced clamor from a certain unicorn bead.

Xu Mu shook his head helplessly, anyone with a discerning eye can see that you are far from Zhao Yan's opponent.

Ignoring the sound of a certain ferocious beast, Xu Mu stretched out his fingers to fiddle with the jade pen in Zhao Yan's palm.Because it cultivated into a spirit on a camphor tree, it can manipulate trees? "Did you hurt those crew members?"

【No...no...】The voice slowly denied.

"Wiya,... those ropes hanging on the tree, do you know who broke it?" Thinking of Zhao Yan's complaint just now, Xu Mu even described it with a picture.The guys I met before, although they all talk to themselves and live in their own world, at least most of them speak fluently, but this one is like a young child who has just been ignorant, with some lack of intelligence and slow reaction.

After understanding Xu Mu's meaning, Yu Wei said, 【Will...die...】

"Dead?" Xu Mu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, what do you mean?He looked at Zhao Yan, the other party couldn't even hear the voice, so he looked blank, "What's the matter?"

【Will...will die...will...break it】Yuyi tried hard to explain, and finally choked out a long sentence, 【Hanging on...the rope...will...will die, Laner...that's it... …dead……】

Laner is not a personal name?

Does it not want to hurt people, but to save people?
