Chapter 433 Xiwu Village [10](1/4)
Chapter 433 Xiwu Village【10】
Due to the sudden disappearance of Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan, Mo Qing and Jiang Ke's plan to enter Xiwu Village was temporarily delayed. They stayed there for a day and contacted Huos at the same time.
Hoss said that their team would enter the mountain soon.
He hoped that Mo Qing and Jiang Ke would wait where they were.
However, after Mo Qing and Jiang Ke stayed for another night, they decided to hand over the task of finding Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan to Huo Si, and they continued to act according to the original plan.
On the one hand, the fact that Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan's bodies were not found proves that the two of them still have a chance of survival. If they do nothing, they may waste the opportunity.
On the other hand, the New World is watching eagerly. Hoss and the others send people into the mountains. If they encounter people from the New World, both sides will definitely suffer.
Besides, since they are all here, it is unrealistic to leave right now.
The new world does not allow them to give up halfway.
Just as they both thought, on the second day, Xiao Yuqun lost his temper and came over to urge him.
"Do you two want to wait here for your companions to come back?" Xiao Yuqun asked.
Mo Qing and Jiang Ke ignored him and continued to eat their breakfast.
Xiao Yuqun frowned before waiting for a response: "Some of us have already died, you should know. If Song Yiyuan and the others really encountered a monster, there would be no chance of survival. If you continue to wait, there will be no other consequences except wasting time.
result."
"Whoa!"
A stone rubbed Xiao Yuqun's right cheek, leaving a slight wound on his face.
It was Jiang Ke who took action.
Jiang Ke also had a stone in his left hand, which he was throwing up and down. At this moment, his sharp gaze swept towards Xiao Yuqun. His eyes were full of coldness and sharpness, which was shocking.
Xiao Yuqun then looked at Jiang Ke carefully.
"We will leave, but it's not your turn to take command." Jiang Ke said coolly, his tone full of threats.
Xiao Yuqun's eyes were heavy: "I'm just reminding you that the Lord doesn't have much patience and won't wait for you too long."
There are hidden needles in the words, full of threats.
Mo Qing sneered and said mockingly: "You've been waiting for a hundred years, and you still care about this moment and a half?"
"..."
Xiao Yuqun frowned and wanted to refute, but couldn't find any good reason.
"Go away," Mo Qing raised his hand, "Your Lord should not have allowed you to be an eyesore in front of me."
"you--"
Xiao Yuqun's face turned dark and dark, and he wanted to move forward.
Jiang Ke dropped a stone in front of his toes, stopping him in his tracks.
Xiao Yuqun paused.
After a long moment of silence, Xiao Yuqun left with a sullen face.
Mo Qing glanced at Xiao Yuqun's back and took a bite of the compressed biscuit in his hand: "You said we live here, will their master not be able to help showing up?"
She bit the biscuit a little hard.
Jiang Ke laughed, picked up a bottle of yogurt in his bag, unscrewed it and put it on her face: "Take a sip of yogurt to calm down."
Mo Qing curled his lips in displeasure.
She felt unhappy when she heard Xiao Yuqun call him "Your Majesty." She has moved into a new society, but her mind is still stuck in the past? To be a good person, you have to be a dog.
"You eat first, and I'll go pack it up." Jiang Ke said, "We're going on the road next, so I guess I'll have to reduce some equipment."
"Hmm."
Mo Qing drank yogurt and gave Jiang Ke an affirmative look.
The four of them had brought a lot of things, and everyone's backpacks were bulging. Now that two of them were missing, it was difficult for them to carry them, so they had to cut back on their equipment appropriately.
There will really be a shortage then...
Just rob with the "followers".
Jiang Ke also had the same idea. After sorting it out, he left almost two-thirds of the equipment in place, and his and Mo Qing's two backpacks were not even filled.
As soon as he finished packing, Mo Qing came over.
Looking at the two backpacks, Mo Qing's expression was a little subtle: "That's it?"
"That's enough." Jiang Ke nodded slightly, "If we speed up the journey, it will only take two days at most."
Mo Qing thought for a while: "Yeah."
Jiang Ke bent down, picked up a lighter backpack and gave it to her: "Let's set off?"
"Set off."
Mo Qing raised his eyebrows.
After cutting out their equipment and focusing on rushing, the two of them walked significantly faster. The distance they walked on this day was far greater than their first day. At noon, the two of them relied on dry food to replenish their energy.
It's evening in a blink of an eye.
The two stood in front of a cliff, looking at each other.
Jiang Ke held up the map he copied in his hand and looked at the cliff ahead. His expression changed slightly: "If you follow the map, there should be a mountain ahead."
Mo Qing said "Yeah": "It is indeed a mountain after passing the cliff."
Jiang Ke: "..." You have to be humorous.
Mo Qing asked: "Are you lost?"
"impossible."
Jiang Ke frowned slightly, expressing dissatisfaction with Mo Qing's questioning.
Mo Qing's eyes moved slightly, she leaned her head over, her eyes fell on the map, and she gradually frowned. Finally, she simply took the map and looked at it carefully.
Mo Qing said: "I understand."
"Know what?"
The wind howling on the cliff was so cold that Jiang Ke's hair was blown around, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"This map is fake, let's go back." Mo Qing said with a dark face, thrust the map into Jiang Ke's hand, turned around and left.
The map was stuffed back, Jiang Ke was stunned for a moment, and then he grabbed Mo Qing's coat and hat, dumbfounded, and pulled him back.
Mo Qing took two steps back, tilted his head slightly, and frowned helplessly at Jiang Ke: "I'm sure you didn't go the wrong way, but there are no mountains on the map. Either the map is fake, or -
—”
She paused, glanced at the rolling river under the cliff and the mountains opposite, and said: "The world has changed. There were mountains here before, but they are gone now."
Jiang Ke asked: "Which one do you believe in?"
Mo Qing spread his hands: "I don't believe anyone."
Mo Qing was certain that the route they took today was based on the simplified version of the map in Jiang Ke's hand, and there was no deviation at all.
But the mountain that was supposed to appear turned into a cliff.
Apart from the above two reasons, Mo Qing could not think of any other new ones.
But she didn't think these two reasons were very likely.
First of all, the map was copied from the fragments of Jiuyun. If it was fake, there would have been no need to put in so much effort. As for the changes in the world...
One hundred years of "changes in the sea" is a joke.
Jiang Ke pondered for a moment: "Actually, there is another possibility."
Mo Qing: "What?"
Jiang Ke folded the map and said slowly: "The existence of Xiwu Village is itself a scam."
"Um?"
Mo Qing was puzzled.
"Perhaps Xiwu Village does not exist at all, but Jing Shi used it as a gimmick and added a little bargaining chip to attract the attention of the New World." Jiang Ke said, "After all, the New World knows about you, and you just want a copy of "Hundreds of Worlds".
"Poison Collection", wouldn't it be easier for you to write it to them silently? They are still so attached to Xiwu Village, there must be something else that attracts them."
Mo Qing thought for a moment: "You mean, Xiwu Village is a trap set up by Jing Shi to deal with the New World?"
"It's just a guess." Jiang Ke glanced at the woods behind him and said softly, "Find the campsite first, and think about other things later."
"OK."
Mo Qing responded.
Since the actual route did not match the map in their hands, the two of them found a suitable place to rest nearby. As soon as the tent was set up, it became dark, so the two of them ate something casually and regarded it as dinner.
