Chapter 198

Luo Binhan looked at her for a while, and then looked at the quiet and peaceful wilderness.Both became different from what he was familiar with.

"Uh, the new hairstyle is nice." He said to Lan Que, "How did you get it?"

"I have to ask you, Luo Han. I don't know what you did, but when the rain fell just now, I felt a terrible concentration of ether. It was the natural ether that was not shaped by spells and rituals. When it When it fell on this planet, it seemed to become some kind of directional concept related to life. My work clothes sprouted immediately after being exposed to the rain. I couldn’t protect against that concentration of ether, so I followed its direction to give I cast the spell by myself and made a wooden shell, and it went completely smoothly! If I cast it normally by myself, I certainly wouldn't be able to make it so delicate and flexible."

Lan Que shook its long hair made of rattan, showing Luo Binhan its flexible hands.It grows from the twigs of the new tree, and bends flexibly in and out.Her skin was covered with brown-blue bark, but it didn't seem to affect her flexibility—all the joints were connected by roots.That makes Blue Magpie look like some otherworldly wooden robot.

"Actually, I still have the work clothes inside." Lan Que told him, "It's like wearing a protective suit, which can separate me from the ether outside."

She lowered her head to let the dew in her eyes glisten, revealing the hollow tree hole, and Luo Binhan found the familiar red light from inside.

That took some of his doubts away, but more questions popped up.He looked left and right, but couldn't recognize where he was.This is a field shrouded in morning light, and clusters of orange wildflowers with long pointed petals are swaying in the wind.The air is humid and cool, with a bit of chill after the rain.

He searched for a while, and finally found something familiar in this strange world.A few kilometers away, the outline of the Tangchi Mountains is undulating, like a black dragon lying on the ground.

Luo Binhan grabbed Lan Que's wet arm: "Which side are we on?"

"Which side? Oh, you mean the stars? I think we're still on the planet where the Butterflies live, but..."

The blue magpie looked around, and then said like a coffin: "I think it's over, have you noticed those orange flowers? I often see them in the mountains, but not here. It's the other side. Wild People call it the 'messenger flower'. When it blooms it means it's time to harvest the fruit. But this flower is very demanding of the environment and I don't think it can survive in low ether areas. There must have been a very drastic change here. "

"Yeah, I can see it." Luo Binhan stared at her face and said, "Fortunately, no mushrooms grew on me."

"What are you talking about, Luo Han? Isn't that what you did?"

Luo Binhan didn't quite understand what she meant, but Lan Que looked so determined that he didn't dare to categorically deny it.He described to Lan Que what he was sure was the reality: the two of them sat in the aircraft and saw giants fighting in the mountains.

"Then I saw a woman." Luo Binhan said uncertainly.

"You did tell me that." Lan Que agreed.

"Then did you see it?"

Lan Que shook her head, but this time she did not announce to Luo Binhan that it was just a pure illusion.They just looked at each other in confusion, but this time Luo Binhan didn't feel anxious, just a little heavy.He had a vague feeling that Lan Que's statement was at least partially correct—the matter was temporarily over.

He immediately thought of Jing Juan and Momolo.But in the direction of the mountains, there are neither red clouds flying into the sky, nor silver shining giants.Yale Liga, who witnessed him flying into the abyss of heaven, also did not find him-he still feels very lucky about this.

"Let's go there and find Lao Mo." He suggested to Lan Que.

Blue Magpie agreed.She stood up and stood firmly on the ground.Her new wooden outfit seemed rather awkward at the joints, relying on flexible roots to provide room to bend.This inevitably makes the blue magpie look a little wobbly when walking, like a tree just pulled out of the ground.But she still happily paced back and forth a few steps, and then brushed up her long hair made of ivy.

"Look at this." She said to Luo Binhan, "the Master Leaf of Life I met when I was a child is like this. Her skin looks like leaves, and her hair is also grown from vine branches. I often see her hair blooming, and her hair is like a flower. Birds got inside and sang. But it wasn't overalls, it was the blessing of the forest she got - before I entered the White Tower, I thought all mages looked like her! If I pass the mage exam, I will definitely do A set of robes like this, but I think the texture of Huguang leaves is more suitable for skin, at least the joints need to be improved. What do you think, Luo Han?"

Luo Binhan felt that this shape was indeed very beautiful, and it also looked like a magic expert.He didn't mind pretending to be a bird and singing to the blue magpie, but it was a pity that his voice was still hoarse, and his limbs were weak, so he almost couldn't stand up.

Lan Que immediately came to help him up and suggested that he rest for a while.But Luo Binhan had no intention of waiting, Lan Que had no choice but to support him with a wooden arm, and walked with him to the mountains thousands of meters away.

The road seemed extremely long under the stumbling steps, and then Luo Binhan remembered their aircraft.He asked Lan Que about the whereabouts of the public property of the Silence, but Lan Que told him that the aircraft was finished.

"You really don't remember, Luo Han." She said, "You broke it."

Luo Binhan had no memory at all, so he had to ask Lan Que to explain what was going on.He saw the wooden girl put her fingers on her chin and make a bang bang sound.

"I can only tell you what I saw," she mused. "You tell me you heard a woman singing, but I didn't hear the voice you described, and then you start talking to yourself, saying Words about mountains and dragons. At that time I thought you had fallen into some kind of spiritual illusion, after all, that is very common in the tide of the ether. But then I found that you have been clutching the ritual vessel brought from the moon... …That is a very strange thing, Luo Han, I can tell you frankly that during the time you were staring at the mountains in a daze, I had secretly taken it out of your pocket and put it under my own seat, Because I was worried that you would do something impulsive. But suddenly it returned to you somehow, and I didn't notice any signs of casting the spell at all-maybe I was attracted by other things at that time? Toss the chip before you stop it and catch it again."

"I catch it again?"

"Yeah. And then there was something obviously wrong with you. I can't give much evidence, but I felt like you became someone else at that time. Not the rude and manic you, but... you made people It feels elegant, but kind of scary."

Luo Binhan's face contorted.He couldn't imagine what Lan Que described. He usually used chopsticks instead of stirring sticks when drinking coffee.

"I also don't think that's you." Lan Que said honestly, "You are possessed by something, Luo Han, that's what I thought at the time. It must have been made by the moon creature who gave you the sacrificial vessel. I wanted it to give you the body back, but then it gave me a look... My overalls suddenly lost power, and I later found out that a part in the core turned into a crystal, affecting the signal transmission. I can only watch You go out -- out of the air. You go straight through the craft, you go up like you're on a rope. You hang in the air for a while, then you're gone. I was stuck in the craft, trying to Fly up and take you down, but all of a sudden my work clothes stopped completely."

"You mean it's all broken? But you can move now?"

"No, no, it wasn't damaged, except for a small replaceable part that turned into a crystal. It's strange that during that time it completely failed, and all the spells carried on it were temporarily removed, can you understand , Luo Han? It's like I fell into a place where no ether can exist, a place of...complete nothingness. It's hard for me to explain the feeling, but I was really scared at the time, but fortunately, the feeling disappeared quickly .my work clothes are back to work and it is daylight and it is still raining ether, which activates the life force of the land and makes my work clothes sprout. I floated in the rain and finally found you sleeping in that place .”

Lan Que laughed a little stiffly, and then said: "This is really a strange encounter. So what about you, Luo Han? What do you remember?"

Luo Binhan shook his head absently.

"You don't remember anything?"

"No, I remember it all," Robinson said, "but I can't fucking explain it."

His answer aroused Lan Que's curiosity even more strongly.Under the strong request of the apprentice of the White Tower, he could only lick his dry lips and try to describe his grotesque nightmare.

"I saw a man with black gloves take the chips." He said to Lan Que, "He said it was going to rain, and then it rained blood. He took my eyes and walked out of the headship..."

"Human ship?"

"Don't ask me. He stepped out of the head boat, and the sky was full of glowing threads..."

They walked hard on the field for a long time, and Luo Binhan finally finished talking about his dream after stumbling.Lan Que listened intently, as if reviewing a very important matter.When Luo Binhan stopped speaking, she nodded solemnly.

"I get it," she said, "but I think the second half is a little blurry, can you paraphrase in a little more detail?"

"Ok, where to start?"

"Human ship."

Luo Binhan looked at Lan Que's expression, and told her in a serious tone: "You better stop studying this matter."

"Okay, but... Luo Han, there is something I still want to tell you. When you—or a certain ancient law attached to you rose into the sky, I noticed that there were two stars twinkling in the sky at that time , to your left and right. You took out that fairy knife from under your coat, and it was on fire. I couldn't help but think that the scene was like..."

"Don't think about it." Luo Binhan said, "It's over anyway."

They move on.Sure enough, Lan Que stopped asking about the nightmare, but Luo Binhan couldn't help thinking about it.He didn't tell all the details, such as Zhou Yu's face at the end of the dream.

That made his heart inexplicably heavy.When they reached the foot of the mountain, he opened his mouth and called out, "Blue Magpie."

"what?"

"Why do moths jump into flames?"

Lan Que looked at him in surprise.

"What kind of problem is this? Luo Han, there are many reasons. The Disya Soul Moth feeds on flames, and the Vanlunga Moth relies on temperature to determine the sex of its offspring..."

"No, I'm just talking about ordinary moths, the kind of little flying insects with little ability, you understand?"

Luo Binhan stepped on the hill with difficulty, and then continued to ask: "Why do they fight the fire? Is it really because they like light and heat?"

Blue Magpie laughed.

"Of course not, Luo Han, what are you thinking? It was a complete accident—many insects rely on the light of the sun and the moon to judge their direction, which is their natural habit. But then there was also fire on the ground, which interfered with their understanding of the direction. Direction control. Of course they are not trying to burn themselves, they just get lost because of the lights... This sounds a bit cruel, right? But it is really hard to avoid, unless you buy the White Tower's guard Moth lamp! Have you seen that, Luo Han? It's a very interesting prop, I hope I can give you one if I have the chance."

Luo Binhan was actually not very interested in the moth lamp, but Lan Que's words somehow comforted him and made the big stone in his chest a little easier.

They climbed over the mountains and found Momolo lying under a tree.The latter was looking at the sky with his eyes open. He didn't seem to be injured, but his expression was a little confused.

Luo Binhan stepped forward and patted him: "Old Mo, where is the young master?"

Momolo didn't know either.Now there were two people supporting Luo Binhan, and the trio continued to go deep into the mountains, looking for the missing Jing Huang.When the last remaining rain stopped completely, they finally found their target under the cliff.

The valley surrounded by cliffs is full of flowering trees.The red and white flowers are shining like clouds, and Jing Huang, with his back to them, sits under a peach tree, looking up at the branches.

Luo Binhan finally felt the weight on his chest disappear.He strode forward and grabbed Jing Huang's hair.

"Hey, young master, why are you sitting here alone..."

Jing Huang's head was pulled up, as hollow as a puppet.

The look in his eyes had dried up.
