Chapter 25: The First Encounter Outside the Forest
The silver moon is like a hook, scattered with stars, and the black carriage slowly sails on the vast field. The cool breeze on the summer night blows by, making people feel quiet.
Xia Sheng finally chose to compromise and walked with everyone in the unknown night.
But at this time the person who drove the carriage had already been replaced by himself, and Han Dali was driven into the carriage.
Ten thousand years is too long, and the whole world has changed. Xia Sheng can only rely on the vague memories in his mind to find a general direction. It has been almost half an hour since he left.
But I still didn't see any shadow of the spiritual wood.
Perhaps the experience tonight was too exciting, and the girls in the car were not tired at all, and were still whispering something. Shui'er raised the spirit-locking ring on her wrist from time to time to look left and right, with her face full of interest, like a child who had just obtained a new toy.
Ye Xiao'e was also filled with joy. She was discussing the majesty of the spirit snake with Shui'er, but she didn't know what she suddenly thought of, and her cheeks became a little hot.
In comparison, Han Dali seemed to be uncomfortable all over. He couldn't speak, and he didn't know where to look at his eyes. He even had nowhere to place his hands and feet.
In the end, Han Dali simply took off the long knife around his waist and wiped it carefully against the brilliant starlight.
Xia Sheng held the reins lightly, his eyes were quiet, and he did not seem too earnest or regretful, because he had done too much in the previous lives.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Just keep a normal mind.
He hummed a song from the ancient tune ten thousand years ago in his mouth, and beat the rhythm with one hand gently on his legs, thinking in his heart that if there was another pot of good wine at this time, it would be more beautiful.
The carriage continued to move forward, without any traces of stepping on the grass, and the breeze and the moon were clear.
I feel a rare pleasure in my heart.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe a stick of incense, or maybe an hour, when Xia Sheng shook his head and was about to take back the reins, Shui'er's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Look! There is a forest in front of you!"
Xia Sheng's heart trembled, subconsciously stopped the carriage, turned his head, and saw Shui'er stretching out a small head from the roof of the car, and his eyes were filled with joy.
Xia Sheng also stood up as she watched from a distance, and looked into the distance. Sure enough, a different scene finally appeared a few miles away in front of her.
Towering trees rose from the ground, like a forest of spears, shining brightly under the dark blue starlight!
From a distance, this vast forest was a bit terrifyingly silent. The forest was pitch black and could not see anything, but invisibly it brought an extremely depressing and heaviness to people, making people feel a little breathless.
Xia Sheng drove the carriage to the front, looked up at the towering giant tree, and suddenly frowned slightly.
His intuition told him that something was wrong with this forest.
Shui'er's arms were stomping on the roof of the car, stretched her neck, looked around curiously, and then shouted again: "It seems there is a stone tablet there, what is written on it?"
Xia Sheng followed Shui'er's gaze and indeed, at the entrance of this dense forest, a stone tablet was erected by one person, but the handwriting on the tablet was already a little blurred and could not be distinguished.
So he simply walked off the carriage and came to the stone tablet, but immediately narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Forget back to the forest."
Hang Dali also came out of the carriage and said suspiciously: "Does Mr. Xia's friend live here? It's not auspicious to hear this name..."
For a moment, Xia Sheng was a little confused. You should know that the seed he planted was the famous tree of life in his hometown. If it had already taken root and sprouted, this would not have happened.
Because the first impression this forest brought to Xia Sheng was not life and hope, but an indescribable weirdness.
But for a full ten thousand years, who knows what will happen during this period?
Could it be that the tree species experienced a wrong mutation and evolution during its growth?
Xia Sheng has no way to answer this for the time being. If he wants to find the final answer, he can only go to Lin Yiguan.
Just when Xia Sheng was still hesitating, Hang Dali suddenly held the long sword in his hand, turned around, looked at the darkness not far away, and shouted loudly: "Who!"
This loud shout immediately made Xia Sheng and Shui'er's faces tighten. They stimulated the sword energy and the master spirit in their bodies almost at the same time, and looked vigilantly at an ancient tree outside the Forgetful Forest.
After a while, the group appeared from behind the tree as if helpless. The first person had a gentle smile on his face and said, "It turns out that it was the Ye Mansion who came here, which is a coincidence."
Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but turn his head to look at Shui'er, thinking that it was someone they knew?
But I never thought that I just caught a glimmer on Shui'er's face.
In an instant, Xia Sheng's doubts became even heavier.
This was all right. What Xia Sheng didn't expect was that when he turned his head, he saw Hang Dali taking the initiative to put away the long sword in his hand, and took a step forward in panic, bowing to the young man.
“See…”
The young man waved his hand and helped Hang up with great force. He patted him on the back gently and said with a smile: "Everyone is away, so there is no need to be so polite. Brother Hang still looks so majestic!"
After saying that, the young man's eyes went over and over, and naturally fell on Xia Sheng, and he was suddenly a little surprised.
At the same time, Xia Sheng was also looking at the other person with suspicion.
The boy came empty-handed, but it seemed as if all evil could not invade. There was a brilliant apricot yellow glow flashing between his wrists, and a bright white one-horned phantom stood on his forehead, carrying the sacred light, making people feel awe.
But this is not the most attractive thing about Xia Sheng. If Xia Sheng must use one word to express his first impression of this young man, it must be: amazing.
Like Xia Sheng, this young man was wearing white clothes, but the fabric he used was excellent ice silk, which set off his handsome face just right, like a white and holy snow lotus, quietly blooming from the world, making all living beings fall in love with it.
It's unbelievable that a big man could be so beautiful.
Xia Sheng had no doubt that if this young man was a daughter, he would definitely be a disaster that would be a stunning disaster.
But at this time, the young man could not see the woman's delicate charm. Instead, he gave people a feeling of extreme sunshine in the heavy night sky, as if only his smile could be needed to dispel all the haze and sorrow in the world and give people unparalleled hope.
He is like a beam of light that can shine into the darkest place in everyone's heart and light it up.
Xia Sheng was stunned for a moment, then moved his eyes away and landed his eyes on the jade ring on the young man's waist, leaving a slightest stop.
If he read it correctly, this should be a good piece of white jade with mutton fat, which is priceless.
At the same time, the boy's voice sounded appropriately.
"Who is this?" In an instant, the boy had already arrived in front of Xia Sheng, stretched out his palm friendly, and had a warm smile on his face.
"Xia Sheng." Xia Sheng stretched out his hand and gently held it with the other party to show kindness.
However, immediately afterwards, he frowned in his heart because the other party obviously had a pseudonym.
"It turns out it's Mr. Xia. It's a blessing to meet him for the first time. You can call me Aaron."
