After thinking about it for a while, Qiao Jiu followed.

Surrounded by plants, it stands to reason that it would be easy for Qiao Jiu to find someone, but this is not the case. Qiao Jiu couldn't find her after ten minutes of searching.

Later, he simply gave up, found a place by the lake, lit a fire, and sat down with his legs rolled up.

He tore a leaf and put it in his mouth, chewing out the somewhat bitter juice.

The five courtyards are distributed in different places. On the surface, they seem to have no connection, but they are actually a formation, and the center of the formation is this place.

This place opens once every three years, and five people can enter at a time.

When someone is in it, the formation will be opened, and the aura will enter different colleges along with the formation.

The spiritual energy is thin, and each student can perform spiritual energy quenching once, and only this time.

The amount of aura depends on how long the students can stay in it, and the longer they stay, the more. According to previous records, the longest stay was half a year, and the shortest was three months.

There is still plenty of time, but Qiao Jiu can't stay here forever. He has to find the highest mountain and find the things hidden in it before completing the task.

As for what that thing was, none of them knew, no one told them.But Qiao Jiu felt that this had something to do with the tasks released by the system. He had a strong hunch that the truth he was looking for could be found here.

The fire in front of him made a crackling sound, Qiao Jiu's face was dyed red by the flames, and he looked at the lake out of focus.

The moonlight illuminated the sky very brightly, and the soft sound of the wind could still be heard. Qiao Jiu propped his chin to feel drowsy, opened and closed his eyelids, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

A person suddenly appeared out of nowhere on a tree not far away. The leaves hid her figure tightly, only revealing a pair of twinkling eyes.

There are some red scratches on the bottom.

When Qiao Jiu woke up the next day, it was dawn and the fire had long been extinguished. He washed his face briefly and filled the empty bottle with water.

Before leaving, he felt Lu Lu's breath again, but there was still no response.

Qiao Jiu thought about it carefully, and felt that there was nothing to worry about. After all, he had never heard of anyone dying here for so many years.

There is only one destination when you come in, and you will always meet when the time comes.

With such thoughts in mind, Qiao Jiu embarked on the journey again.

For the rest of the time, he was still traveling in the vast desert. Qiao Jiu was not so unlucky. He hadn't encountered any storms, and he could encounter some plants every night, which could replenish energy in time.

From time to time, he looked at the computer left by the system. Qiao Jiu didn't know the password, but he could see the time.

Sunrise and sunset, Qiao Jiu would write it down in his notebook every day.

On the seventh day, Qiao Jiu finally saw the undulating green.

He pulled up the corner of his mouth and wanted to smile, but found that he couldn't smile. He hadn't spoken for a week, and his face might be a little paralyzed.

He himself didn't know how he got here this week. There was only one cactus that couldn't be found, and there was nothing that Joe couldn't eat for a long time.Young master Qiao has never experienced any hardships since he was a child, and this time he has made up for it all. Maybe it will be even more bitter in the future.

He comforted himself bitterly, that the heavens will send a great task to the people, and they must first work hard on their minds, muscles and bones, and starve their bodies.

Now I'm finally out of the sea of ​​suffering.

When he got to the jungle, it was his home field.

Thinking of this, Qiao Jiu couldn't be happier.

Before he got close, there was a gust of cold air. Qiao Jiu shrank his neck and hesitated for a moment. He looked at the jungle in front of him and the desert behind him, gritted his teeth, and walked in.

The jungle is different from the woods. Qiao Jiu discovered it as soon as he entered. Nature is the most amazing shaper. This jungle is more than the woods in the wooden courtyard. And I don’t know if it is Qiao Jiu’s illusion. The moment he walked in, The exercises on his body started to work automatically.

Feeling the fluctuation of spiritual energy in his body, Qiao Jiu looked at the forest in astonishment. The towering trees towered like clouds, and the tops could not be seen. The leaves dripped and fell to the ground, forming deep and shallow puddles, and Qiao Jiu could only avoid them.

He tried it, and he could use light work here, which was even easier than outside, but the forest was full of slanted branches and leaves, and was still stained with water mist, Qiao Jiu felt that it might be easier to walk.

He even found leeches and some unknown bugs on the tree trunks and on the ground, densely packed, and seeping people.

Qiao Jiu walked with one foot deep and one shallow foot, the highest mountain was on the other side of the jungle, and he didn't know how long it would take to get there.

The imagined scene of doing whatever he wanted in the jungle did not appear. The forest is too dangerous. Qiao Jiu even encountered dangerous beasts several times, so he could only hide himself with the energy of the wood element.

Trying to use human power against nature is like a mayfly shaking a tree.

Qiao Jiu checked his mind through the wooden system, and found nothing superfluous except for the small quilt and computer left by the system.

I don't know how the computer works, and the battery is still fully charged after so many days.

But this is just right, no electronic devices can be brought in, at least he has something to tell the time.

Qiao Jiu found a big tree, cleaned it up, and jumped up a few steps. It was getting dark, so I will sleep here tonight.

When Qiao Jiu came in, the forest looked gloomy and gloomy, and he couldn't see it at night.

The tall trees blocked the sky tightly, and Qiao hadn't seen a ray of light for a long time since he came in. There was no sun during the day and no moon at night.

It was very cold in the forest, but Qiao Jiu didn't feel it anymore except for the half hour after he first came in.

The more he walked in, the more abundant the spiritual energy was, passing through and coming back in his extraordinary meridians.

Qiao Jiu was lying on the tree, with his eyes closed and his legs crossed. The aura in the jungle was full of energy, and Qiao Jiu's kung fu was running automatically, and the bugs couldn't get close to him.

Suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, the whole person was in a daze, when he heard the rustling sound, Qiao Jiu got up abruptly, a gust of breeze suddenly blew in the dull jungle, reflecting the light of the fire not far away .

Qiao Jiu stretched out his hand and pulled down the leafy branch in front of him, and took another step back.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the fire was getting closer and closer.

Holding a few leaves in his hand, Qiao Jiu held his breath and looked at the person motionless.

The fire was blurred, and he kept moving. Qiao Jiu couldn't see his face clearly, but only saw his tall and straight figure, and the wind blew the hem of his clothes.

He walked past the tree where Qiao Jiu was, and looked in the opposite direction to Qiao Jiu. Qiao Jiu thought about it and threw a leaf down.

The leaves flew towards the man's face with a swish, and were blown away by a gust of wind.

Qiao Jiu showed a face, waved at him, and called his name: "Lu Qiaoyuan."

Lu Qiaoyuan looked up and saw him, and suddenly laughed.

Qiao Jiu: "Come up?" He patted the tree trunk beside him: "I can still sleep."

Lu Qiaoyuan nodded and jumped up.

Qiao Jiu: "Extinguish the fire."

Lu Qiaoyuan: "Huh?"

Qiao Jiu looked at him: "It is important to prevent forest fires, and strictly control the source of fire is the key."

Lu Qiaoyuan was taken aback.

Qiao Jiu: "In the sea of ​​green, keep fire prevention in mind."

Lu Qiao looked at Qiao Jiu, as if looking at something interesting, with a smile in his eyes, the wind kept blowing, the fire light flickered, and his face also brightened and darkened for a while, he nodded with joy in his voice :"All right."

A gust of wind blew by, and the torch in Lu Qiaoyuan's hand was immediately extinguished.

Qiao Jiu rubbed his arms: "You should stop the wind, too."

Lu Qiaoyuan: "Cold?"

Qiao Jiu: "It's okay." He smiled, "It's cold even if it's blowing."

Lu Qiaoyuan had no choice but to say, "Okay."

The next second, the wind also stopped.

Qiao Jiu stepped aside: "Go to sleep."

Lu Qiaoyuan lay down beside Qiao Jiu.

After a while, Qiao Jiu said again: "Are you asleep?"

"No."

Qiao Jiu turned around: "Are you going on your way at night?"

"Well," Lu Qiaoyuan's voice was always gentle: "Night is more dangerous than daytime."

That's true, Qiao Jiu thought, after all, he couldn't see it at night, and Lu Qiaoyuan couldn't expel those bugs while sleeping, maybe he would be eaten by bugs in an instant.

"Then you can sleep with me," Qiao Jiu patted Lu Qiaoyuan's hand, which was cold and trembling, Qiao Jiu paused for a while before spit out: "There are no bugs in sleeping with me..."

Lu Qiaoyuan laughed softly: "I was still thinking about it during the day, it would be convenient if I met you."

The body around him moved closer, and just as Lu Qiaoyuan wanted to escape, he felt the temperature around him, and then he heard Qiao Jiu's grinning voice: "It's not cold now."

Lu Qiaoyuan hummed.

Qiao Jiu: "Then go to bed, and go on the road during the day."

Lu Qiaoyuan: "Okay."

As soon as Qiao Jiu opened his eyes the next day, he saw Lu Qiaoyuan, who was sleeping soundly. He was different from the gentle and elegant senior brother. At this moment, he gave Qiao Jiu a sense of familiarity. He had a straight nose and long eyelashes. The corners of the mouth that were always upturned were tightly pursed, looking a bit serious, Qiao Jiu grinned twice, it was really nice.

Under his eyelids was a thick gray ash, Qiao Jiu clicked his tongue, and before he could say anything, Lu Qiaoyuan opened his eyes.

His eyes were clear, and there was a gleam of light in his eyes. He looked at Qiao Jiu in a daze for a moment, and then burst out with violent emotions. Qiao Jiu's heart beat in his throat. He opened his mouth, his lips moved, and he didn't say a word for a long time. Come.

Lu Qiaoyuan suddenly stretched out one hand to grab Qiao Jiu's wrist with astonishing strength, and stroked Qiao Jiu's face with the other hand.

He stared fixedly at Qiao Jiu, and suddenly burst into a big smile, and then tears fell down, even so, he still didn't look away.

Qiao Jiu had a sore nose.

The man in front of him blinked suddenly, and the next second, his eyes suddenly became a little loose.

Qiao Jiu's heart sank.

Lu Qiaoyuan came back to his senses, glanced at the two of them, pursed his lips unnaturally, let go of his hands and took a few steps back: "What happened to me just now?"

Qiao Jiu raised one corner of his mouth: "I don't know either."

Silence spread between the two of them, Qiao Jiu seemed to have a fire in his heart.
