Chapter 686: The old man, the blind girl, and Crow
He Yun was standing in front of a big tree with his hands behind his back.
Jiang Xiao was holding a giant sword in his hand and was working as a lumberjack.
While wielding the giant sword, Jiang Xiao looked at He Yun, who was the supervisor, and said helplessly,ââWhat a waste, senior he. This blade of mine is used to kill, not to cut down trees.â
âI gave you a chance, but youâre useless,â He Yun said leisurely.
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment and asked,âOh? Your melon is also guaranteed to be ripe?â
Looking at He Yunâs dumbfounded expression, Jiang Xiao smiled awkwardly and said,ââI thought you were giving me a secret signal.â
He Yun ignored Jiang Xiaoâs wild thoughts and said,ââI let you follow her just now, but you didnât show off your skills. I wanted to let her see your ability, but now ⊠Donât even talk about asking for her name, sheâs already ignoring you. â
Jiang Xiao continued to cut wood while saying,ââYou should know her strength better than me, right? How would I have the chance to interfere?â
He Yun: âAlright, alright. Hurry up and use green glow to cut it.â
The giant blade slashed horizontally, and a giant tree that could not be surrounded by three people slowly fell down.
Jiang Xiao grinned and said,âIâll make it clear first. I donât know how to build ships. Besides, donât you have any space-type star techniques?â Thereâs no army guarding this continent. No oneâs stopping you from looking for spatial star techniques, right?â
He Yun explained patiently,âthere are many restricted areas in this world. We are different from you. You are the bait. We only have one life.â
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
He Yun snatched Jiang Xiaoâs giant sword away and said to the giant tree,âIn fact, if you donât acquire any space-related star techniques in the lower dimensions, you wonât have any in the future.â
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment and thought, this theory ⊠A little interesting?
âIn the upper dimension,â he yunduo explained,âwe canât even avoid the space-type astral beasts in time.â
Before Jiang Xiao could speak, He Yun continued,ââThis continent is relatively stable now because of the rules here. The astral beasts in each region are very territorial. Except for a few extremely aggressive creatures, most astral beasts will stay in their own territory.â
âAlright,â he said. Jiang Xiao replied casually and continued,âI can turn into a Big Crow and carry you all to Ludong. Donât worry about tiring me out. I once carried that heavy Bamboo Bear and flew for a long time.â
âEvery section of the journey has its own reason and meaning,â He Yun said without raising his head.âYou will see some interesting things on the sea. It will be a journey of exploration for you.â
Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders indifferently and turned to look into the distance, only to see the blind girl sitting quietly on a huge rock. Although her eyes were covered, she was still looking at the horizon in the distance.
While working, He Yun said,ââGo, donât toot here. Show me your young peopleâs ability to make friends. Itâs getting dark. Iâll take the boat quickly and we can hurry on with our journey while itâs dark. â
âLeave the dagger and get lost!â He Yunxiao scolded.
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and turned around to walk towards the sandy beach.
Jiang Xiao really didnât know how to start a conversation with the blind girl who had been silent all this while.
Of course, Jiang Xiao was thick-skinned enough, but the key thing was that this girl was a little too strange.
She was not actually cold. She and Han Jiangxue were Star Warriors with completely different temperaments.
The blind girl had such powerful strength, but she was introverted. Even during the battle just now, she didnât seem to have a strong aura. If Jiang Xiao hadnât seen what she did with his own eyes, he would have really thought that she was just an obedient deaf-mute child.
Jiang Xiao swore that if it were second last, she would have already made the people around her tremble in fear during the battle just now.
This blind girl was very quiet, just like her appearance. Her heart was also very quiet, and it could even be a silent silence.
She didnât put pressure on anyone around her. She was in a high position, but she didnât look down on or despise him. She might not even have any comments about Jiang Xiao.
She was only immersed in her own world. She was probably with He Yun because this world was too dangerous.
Jiang Xiao thought hard about how to make her talk âŠ
Why donât I change my strategy?
Jiang Xiao suddenly transformed into a Crow and flew over while flapping his wings. He circled above the blind girlâs head twice and hesitated for a long time. In the end, he didnât dare to land on her shoulder and chose to land beside her instead.
The pitch-black Crow raised its small head and stared at the lonely Scarlet eyes. It looked at the blind woman who was motionless like a husband-gazing rock and opened its long beak.âHoarse~â
The blind girl was unmoved, as if she had not heard anything âŠ
The crowâs little feet jumped and came to her side, gently pecking her palm on the stone.
Finally, the blind girl moved!
She slowly raised her hand and flicked her fingers.
The finger that flicked the crowâs head still had a trace of green light.
With a Swoosh, Crow was sent flying âŠ
When it landed on the ground, it had already become Jiang Xiaoâs bait. Jiang Xiao, the bait, covered his head with tears in his eyes and his head was buzzing.
Not listening to anything, who could stand this?
Was it time to use the bamboo bear to save the world? Do I have to use my big move? Call the main body up and paste the bamboo bear on your face?
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, rubbed his head and strode forward.ââYou can be forced but not persuaded?â
The blind girl turned her head around silently. Although her eyes were covered, she seemed to be sizing Jiang Xiao up.
The decoy Jiang Xiao continued,âIâll press you to the ground and beat you up. Then, youâll be able to speak. Right?â
The blind girl retracted her palm and gently placed it on the huge rock.
Jiang Xiao stepped on the Boulder and looked up at the blind girl.âHey, seriously, I have a medical STAR technique. Can I help you treat your eyes?â
The blind girl remained silent.
Jiang Xiao said in puzzlement,âyouâve been in a team with senior he for so long and youâve been through countless battles. I believe that he has healed your body more than once. However, if you use a medical STAR technique on a chaotic battlefield, it wonât be like usual. Senior he wonât deliberately and accurately heal a certain part and make the medical STAR technique avoid your eyes. So âŠâ
The blind girl raised her head slightly, but Jiang Xiao caught her subtle movements.
Jiang Xiao continued,âso, thereâs nothing wrong with your eyes. Youâre just covering them on purpose.â
There was only silence, and the only sound that could be heard was the sound of He Yun knocking on a tree not far away.
A few seconds later, the blind girl suddenly stretched out her hand and tried to reach for Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao blinked, only to see an ink flower slowly blooming on her fair and tender palm.
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Was this the reward for making the right guess?
The blind girlâs arm froze in mid-air, as if it had turned into a statue again.
âThank you, but I donât want it,â Jiang Xiao said awkwardly.
Who the F * ck would dare to take this?
As soon as Jiang Xiao picked it up, his hand would be melted by the ink and completely break.
The blind girl silently lowered her head. She clenched her fists and crushed the ink flowers that bloomed faintly. Black ink flowed out from the gaps between her fingers.
The ink dripped onto the stone and instantly corroded a small piece of the stone, revealing the cracked lines on the surface of the stone. Jiang Xiao was extremely glad to see that.
Fortunately, he didnât reach out to take it!
Jiang Xiao asked softly,âpardon me for asking, but what STAR technique is this?â Where is it produced?â
The ink in the blind girlâs hand turned into bits of star power and dissipated into the air. She raised her head again and looked at the distant line between the sea and the sky âŠ
âLetâs go, weâre going to Lu Dong!âHe Yunâs voice came from afar.
As he said that, He Yun lifted the âwooden boatâ with one hand and walked toward the sandy beach.
This saved Jiang Xiao, who was extremely embarrassed. He hurriedly stepped forward and took the âwooden boatâ from He Yunâs hands. He then strode to the beach and placed it by the water.âSenior he, this is a ship that you dug out from a big tree. You donât even need a nail.â
âNo problem,â He Yun nodded.
Jiang Xiao said smilingly,âyour ship âŠâ It looks more and more like a bathtub?â
Three black lines streaked across He Yunâs forehead as he said,ââCut the crap, letâs go!â
The three of them boarded the boat one after another. He Yun handed Jiang Xiao two simple oars and said,ââLetâs go,âhe said.
Jiang Xiao stood up and was about to support himself on the ground to move the âbathtubâ away, only to see that the blind girl was leaning against the edge of the wooden boat and reaching out her hand âŠ
A muffled sound and a small air cannon helped Jiang Xiao a lot.
Jiang Xiao held the oar in his hand and was a little overwhelmed. Does this girl have a wind-series STAR technique?
Wouldnât it be better to blow the three of them directly to Lu Dong?
Was it because the journey was too long?
Itâs just paddling, Iâm good at it!
Jiang Xiao paddled for more than a dozen times and found some tricks to it, which made him speed up.
This Sea region was really calm. The sun had set long ago, and the moonlight shone on the surface of the sea, revealing a bright and clear reflection in the water.
It had a kind of poetic tone.
More than ten minutes later, Jiang Xiao discovered that there were small lanterns in the slightly dark waters around him.
They formed groups and swam in the sea. Occasionally, they would pop their heads out and look at the âbathtub on the seaâ curiously.
Jiang Xiao finally saw what they looked like. The colorful lanterns were actually fish, and they were a bunch of fish with light bulbs on their heads.
They were very similar to the âlion head goldfishâ on earth, but their heads were bigger and could emit colorful lights.
Jiang Xiaoâs eyes were dazed and he thought, isnât she a little beautiful?
A few seconds later, the lanterns around the bathtub were suddenly extinguished, and the surrounding sea fell into darkness again, leaving only the White moonlight.
âSomething is approaching.â Jiang Xiao said with a sullen expression.
If he could notice this abnormality, the other two big shots had noticed it long ago. It was just that no one spoke.
He Yun said,âitâs a large fish. I donât know what itâs called. Iâve never seen it on earth. Theyâre very docile. Iâve been traveling by sea for so long, but Iâve never seen them hurt âŠâ
The waves exploded, and Jiang Xiao couldnât even see what it looked like. All he could see was its bloody mouth and the dense rings of sharp teeth!
The sudden scene was obviously beyond the blind girlâs expectations. She didnât have the time to think too much and leaped subconsciously. He Yun followed closely behind, and Jiang Xiao also leaped up.
The blind girlâs first reaction was indeed to escape and jump, but the effect of force was mutual. As she jumped, she also kicked the bathtub down âŠ
The two star Warriors leaped up high, followed by Jiang Xiao. In an instant, the bathtub and the three of them were swallowed by the big fish that rushed out.
In a moment of desperation, Jiang Xiao immediately transformed into a Crow.
In his line of sight, the two star Warriors quickly scuttled out and escaped from the fishâs mouth, but the circle of dense teeth was still rapidly closing.
âIt canât be?â A green glow appeared on the crowâs long beak. It aimed at the fishâs mouth that had not yet closed and flapped its wings fiercely.
The huge figure burst out of the sea and fell back into the sea.
The water splashed and the waves churned âŠ
The blind girl threw out an illusionary long whip and wrapped it around He Yun, who was in the air and had nowhere to borrow strength from. Then, with an air cannon in her hand, the two of them flew high up again.
And he Yunâs expression ⊠âHmm âŠâ It was very awkward.
From the one-eyed crowâs point of view, it had been bitten to pieces along with the bathtub by the circular, dense, sharp teeth âŠ
On earth, in the administrative buildingâs duty room in Beijingâs star Warrior University.
âF * ck!â Jiang Xiao stood up abruptly, picked up the book on the table, and threw it on the table.
Han Jiangxue hurriedly stood up and said with concern,ââWhatâs wrong?â
Jiang Xiao subconsciously looked at Han Jiangxue with an awkward expression and hurriedly waved his hand.ââIâm fine, Iâm fine âŠâ
Would you believe me if I said I was eaten by a fish?
Even if you believe me, I canât say it. Donât you want to save face for me, the king of toxic healers?
Itâs fine to hit your face, but the key is that itâs with my life!
