After the ascension failed, I picked up the protagonist's golden finger

Fortunately, he moved quickly, and Shen Shubai was not touched.

The culprit, who just reached out his hand, pursed his mouth, looking like he was about to cry.

"Why are you crying! Don't cry."

The system directly suppressed the child's tears, and Shen Shubai breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, if there is trouble, he really has no experience in coaxing children.

Then, after some communication, Shen Shubai finally got a general idea of ​​what happened.

According to the system, after Shen Shubai fell asleep last night, he was still playing Landlords. Just as he was enjoying the fight, suddenly, this little girl appeared in front of Shen Shubai's bed.

The system saw that this could be tolerated, and immediately became a living person, and confronted the child all night.

It's a confrontation, but it's actually just preventing him from touching Shen Shubai, but the child didn't move until he woke up.

Having said that, the villain that was transformed into a system said in a solemn tone asking for credit: "How about you, play cards with me?"

Shen Shubai: ...

He didn't want to answer the question.

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

His tone was a little serious. After all, this was a trial. He hoped that if there was anything, the system would tell him as soon as possible, so that he could have time to prepare.

The system answered very smoothly: "Aren't you resting?"

Only then did she realize Shen Shubai's meaning, and muttered: "I'm still watching her, it's going to be fine."

It has to be said that after the system wears that little Zhengtai's face, Shen Shubai's endurance will increase a little no matter how he speaks.

But what he just said, it's okay if he doesn't say it, but Shen Shubai became silent immediately because it reminded him of one thing.

The matter has to be traced back to the three years when he was in retreat in Xuanmingzong.

Once, when he was retreating in the back mountain of Xuanmingzong, there was a problem with the enchantment of the retreat, and a tiger demon broke in.

He is cultivating, so naturally he doesn't know anything.

Fortunately, the system found out, so the system was very kind and exchanged his hard-earned points for an item to help him kill the tiger demon.

If things stop here, Shen Shubai will probably give the system a good guy award.

But he remembered very clearly that day, he woke up in the smell of barbecue.

How could there be a barbecue grill and the seasonings needed for the barbecue in the training place? Shen Shubai thought at the time that the system was bought down the mountain.

So under the kind invitation of the system, the two wiped out most of the tiger meat.

Then I looked at the points, [-] less.

Moreover, 1000 points for props and grills, totaling [-] points.

Shen Shubai:

Keep the system away from his points from then on.

Later, Shen Shubai did a lot of tasks in addition to his cultivation, so he barely made up for the vacancy created by the system.

The system coughed lightly, and he didn't need to find out Shen Shubai's true thoughts, he could feel his resentment.

So he was a little uncomfortable on the face.It was his fault that time, but he still took back those flowers and plants!It's just that Shen Shu is of the white race.

The atmosphere between them was really weird, the two of them subconsciously ignored the other person in the room, could that child be an ordinary child, he was murdered just now, and now he is imitating the same tone of the system, saying fiercely : "You are not allowed to whisper."

Shen Shubai and the system turned their heads together and stared at him with alert expressions.

As a result, the child snapped his fingers, his eyes were very ignorant, every word seemed to be just learning to speak, although the pronunciation was not standard, but Shen Shubai could still comprehend his meaning.

"hungry."

Then he stretched out his hand towards Shen Shubai.

In the end, under the barrier-free communication between the system and the child, Shen Shubai found a place where he would not be found, and planned to get some food for the child.

When seeing Shen Shubai take out the grill, the system's eyes lit up obviously.

Then I saw Shen Shubai taking out the seasoning, not to mention directly ordering the child to get food. The child suddenly understood the meaning of the system, and when it appeared again, five heads appeared on the ground that looked like Colossus of cattle.

According to the legend, he was born as a ridge cow of Huishuo level, and he couldn't even survive a single move under the children's hands.

He seriously suspected that this child was here to eat and drink, because as soon as he finished eating, he played and disappeared, leaving only a small crescent-shaped fragment in a very conspicuous position, which seemed to be telling Shen Shubai This is his reward.

Shen Shubai put away the fragments, and then walked towards the knife mound again.

According to the map, the direction of the knife mound is in the depths of this forest. Along the way, Shen Shubai avoided many monsters and poisonous vines that tried to hit him, and the more he entered, the thicker the miasma was, it was even so thick invisible.

Fortunately, he had expected it before coming in, and took the herbal medicine prepared for him by the real medicine man, but his vision was limited, Shen Shubai could only release his consciousness, and his movements became slower and slower.

Until he reached a certain place, Shen Shubai stopped.

This is the place where the fog is thickest. With his eyes closed, the light spots that symbolize the knife mound are flourishing in his mind.

Arrived.

The whistling mist rolled into sharp blades and scraped on the trees in the forest, making mournful wailing, but the trees did not even drop a single leaf.

Shen Shubai finally knew what the strange feeling he felt when he entered the forest for the first time.

It's lifeless.

Everything here has a dead air, not that they are all dead, but that they have lost the power to change.

Whether it's the magical beast that just ignored it, or the vines, or the wind in front of you, it's the same. Life seems to stay at a certain moment forever, and it will continue according to the state at that moment.

Shen Shubai had only stood here for a while before he had the idea of ​​not wanting to leave.

The light spot hanging from the Lingtai finally completed its final bloom, and Shen Shubai suddenly opened his eyes.

The mist rolled and rolled into a vortex.

As the vortex grew bigger and deeper, a road appeared in front of Shen Shubai.

Shen Shubai lifted his foot and walked in.

What Shen Shubai didn't know was that not long after he entered, Elder He also walked into this forest, but he was obviously in a much more distressed state, with wet hair sticking to his forehead, and the number of people following him was reduced by half.

Huang Shan was originally standing at the end of the line, but now he was at the front, with a silver plaque hung on his waist.

It was exactly the same as the one Shen Shubai was holding at that time.

Panting for breath, Elder He pointed at a random person: "You, go find the way."

The person he pointed to was Huangshan.

Huang Shan lowered his head, obediently took out a rope from the storage bag, tied one end around his waist, and handed the other end to Elder He who was closest to him.

Elder He took it, the fog was very thick, he didn't know that standing in front of him was the only casting master in the team, he urged: "Have you fastened it? Let's go after fastening it."

His tone was haughty, and he looked superior, without any consideration for the other people in the team.

Huang Shan also walked forward obediently, while the others frantically searched for the only rope that could confirm that they were still in the team.

They don't know how long they have been in the dense forest. Even if the group of people took the medicine that can cure miasma before entering, they are still dizzy at this time. Elder He, who was very proud just now, was also panting and kicked Huangshan. , with a sinister tone: "Trash, how did you lead the way!"

He didn't use much force with this kick, but it seemed that he had kicked into a quagmire and sank in. He tried to pull it out, but he couldn't pull it out. Only then did he realize that something was wrong, his pupils shrank sharply, and he let out a sound. A terrible scream.

"what."

However, this sound was also swallowed by the dense forest, or more properly weakened, into a kind of small mouse squeak.

Only then did Elder He feel the fear from the inside out.

Just now, he followed something all the way, he tremblingly stretched out his hand to poke behind, and then failed.

There is no one behind.

Shen Shubai didn't know how long he walked, until a white light flashed in front of his eyes, and he came out of the vortex.

There is a high platform in front of me, more like a cliff, and the view under the high platform is blocked, so I can't see clearly.

Shen Shubai stepped down very cautiously. As soon as he stepped on the land, Shen Shubai felt a sharp breath coming towards his head. Fortunately, he was prepared, and wanted to resist this with his spiritual sense. In a second, there was a clear ringing in the ear.

The oppressive feeling brought by that breath also dissipated instantly, turning into a spring breeze, blowing gently.

Opening his eyes, he saw a knife floating in front of his eyes. After he opened his eyes, he moved a little closer, as if to confirm whether Shen Shubai was safe.

If you haven't gotten close, you won't be able to fall.

It turned into a ray of light, and once again hid itself in Shen Shubai's Ruins of Return.

Just like when he was crossing the robbery, as long as he needed it, the knife would stand in front of him.

Shen Shubai, who always prided himself on being strong, now has a little red eyes.

"Who is coming?"

An old voice came from the bottom of the cliff, with an echo, causing the knife mound to vibrate. Several voices echoed in this small space at the same time, and it was not noisy.

It was a feeling that was hard to describe in words, Shen Shubai almost blurted out his name, but stopped the words abruptly.

Reason told him that he couldn't answer, he couldn't answer, but he still couldn't help walking forward.

Step by step, step by step.

Even though he tried to control it, the pace continued to move forward in tiny steps.

As the distance got closer, the voice became more urgent, and Shen Shubai could even feel a bit of temptation from it. Shen Shubai bit the tip of his tongue, and the pain made him wake up for a moment. Posted a fixed spell.

Seeing the mouthful "fat sheep" slip away, something below got angry, and countless knives vacated the high platform, and the blades pointed straight at Shen Shubai, reflecting a cold light.

The coercion overturned.

Alone against him.
