Chapter 781: Xunxu
The hunters got up very early the next day, and declined Qian Cao’s breakfast invitation on the pretext of being in a hurry to return.
It is not easy to find the right direction in the vast sea of trees. If you are not familiar with the terrain, it is easy to get lost even if you have a map.
Qiancao and the others each have their own responsibilities and tasks. Only Xuanxu, who is in the "growing stage" and is a rare idler in the forest, volunteered to take over the job of leading the way.
Because the whole person was wrapped in insect pupae and soaked in fluid as thick as egg white, the little girl spoke slurredly, but still couldn't stop talking, grabbing the hunters and asking questions. West.
She did not hide her curiosity about the outside world.
The aboriginal people of Shuhai do not have any ancestral precepts or regulations prohibiting going out, but most of them stay in this dark green ocean throughout their lives.
To them, the word "outside world" is like the moon and the bottom of the sea.
Even if you occasionally have the curiosity and impulse to "want to see it", you will never take action in the end.
But Xuxu seems to be different.
She didn't know if it was because she had been trapped in the chrysalis for too long, but she was full of expectations and even obsession with the concept of "outside".
In the past, she only wanted to complete her emergence and break out of her shell, but now, she wants to go to the more distant "outside".
What does the sea look like? What do snowy mountains, deserts, and big cities look like?
What is sausage, what is cheese, what is ice cream, what are cakes and puddings, are they really more delicious than thunderworms?
She offered to lead the way as a guide. A large part of her purpose was to satisfy the curiosity that arose during yesterday's chat.
But most of the day passed, and when she arrived at the camp with the hunters, the curiosity in her heart became even more, several times more, and she almost burst the pupa.
Feng Ying is also very curious.
She hadn't slept for two nights in a row, and the dark circles under her eyes were so thick that it looked like she had been punched twice, but this did not stop her from being excited as if she had discovered a new world.
The chrysalis wrapped in the chrysalis was touched by her from head to toe. If Gordon hadn't brought her back, she would have even had the urge to lick it twice and taste it.
Xuanxuan didn't care either. Just as Gordon expected, the two little girls with similar personalities and ages established a friendship at an astonishing speed.
Feng Ying kept describing everything about the outside world to Xuan Xuan. Xuan Xuan listened very seriously. She had not been so happy for a long time since she started pupating.
The only thing she regretted was that the hunters had no plans to stay in the camp for one more day. They would set off after the airship completed a series of preparations and inspections before flying.
The Big Boom Dragon, the Moon Swift Dragon, the girl in ancient costumes who reappeared, the purple unicorn, the awakened Fuyue Dragon, there were too many things to report to the guild, and Hilda was not going to delay any longer.
Before the airship was about to take off, Anhir called the dazed cricket over who was standing alone at the door of the camp, handed her a small leather bag, and then gave her paper and pen.
“Can you write?”
"Gum."
"You have never left the sea of trees. It is not easy to go to the outside world alone. You must carefully record what I say next."
The whole person was like a chrysalis. The chrysalis, which could not even nod its head, shook its body back and forth.
"The first thing is how to get there. There is a sea between Hong Leong and the mainland. It is too difficult to cross the sea. An airboat is the most convenient. Waiting for you
Well, waiting for you looks like a person. , you can come to the camp here and wait. Occasionally, hunters will come to the sea of trees in an airboat.
Discuss with them, take a boat ride, and give them 1000z as reward, which is the kind of paper in your wallet. Give ten pieces, don't give more. If they want to give you something in exchange for more, don't agree casually. It's most likely Want to lie to you.
What are you doing in a daze? Remember it! ”
“Well, grunt! "Xuanxu lowered her head and wrote quickly.
"It would be best if the airship goes directly to Dongdoruma. If not, you have to get off the airship.
As for how to transfer it, it’s a bit complicated. In short, after you arrive in the town, ask about the Sterling Chamber of Commerce and go to the door. There is a pocket watch in your bag. Show that to the person in charge of the local chamber of commerce and they will help. You, and arrange food and lodging.
After arriving in East Doruma, also go to the Sterling Chamber of Commerce. You should see a woman named Jessica. That is my sister. She will arrange the follow-up matters.
Any questions? "
"What is Gulu paper? ”
Under the strange gazes of Gordon and others, Ancier explained the use of the money in detail. After confirming that Xuanxu had remembered all this and had no other questions, he dusted off his hands and let go. She left.
Xuanxuan carefully put the "travel guide" into the small leather bag containing the money, and held the small leather bag in her arms.
That is the crack that tears open the pupa shell called "Sea of Trees".
The depression of being separated from her new friends was washed away, and her mood became particularly bright. She jumped up and waved and said goodbye to everyone.
This should be a cute scene, but it looks particularly weird under the appearance of the chrysalis man.
Amid the murmuring farewells, the airship slowly rose into the sky.
When the camp became as big as a plate, and the crickets still waving in the camp were only as big as beans, Feng Ying, Gordon Hayata and the others crowded in front of Anshir.
"There's something wrong with you." Gordon looked Anhir up and down, "Do you really like that kid?"
"You are such a devil, Xuanxu is one year younger than me. "Feng Ying glared angrily.
Hayata's eyes were also unspeakably subtle, "Herta"
"Pervert! Pervert! Lolicon!" Gale also joined in the fun from a distance and howled. .
Anhil's face turned dark, "What is this mess? What kind of non-burnable garbage are you thinking about?"
"To be honest, this is the first time I've seen you be so patient with someone."
Gordon crossed his arms, "He prepared travel expenses, arranged the itinerary, and gave her a pocket watch that can represent his identity. , allowing her to take advantage of the Sterling Chamber of Commerce , do you really have nothing else on your mind?”
An Xil raised his eyebrows, “Let’s put aside everything else, with her worm-like appearance, is it possible that I might be interested in her?”
"Scumbag speaks!" Feng Ying shouted.
Gordon choked.
Ancil's words are a bit direct, but also quite realistic.
You have to say that the two have been together for many years, and it is possible that they are attracted by personality or something, but Anxier and Xuanxu have only known each other for a day, so it is obviously impossible for them to be familiar with each other to that extent.
In just one day, the contact is not frequent. It is indeed not easy for people to like a guy who does not look like a human being.
Hayata was also convinced by this reason. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "So you want to repay the favor?"
"Absolutely." An Xil nodded, "I was knocked unconscious by the impact of Fuyue Dragon. If Xuanxu hadn't dragged me into the cave where she basked in the moonlight, I would have died a long time ago. Died in the belly of Fuyue Dragon
After Fu Yuelong left, she dragged me unconscious through the jungle and took me back to the woodland for treatment. It is reasonable for me to want to repay this life-saving kindness, right? "
"Well, that's true. "Gordon scratched his chin.
Thinking about it this way, compared with Anxier's life, those travel expenses and arrangements even seem a little too light. If Anxier's parents and sisters know about this, I still don’t know how I will thank you.
Feng Ying smacked her lips, feeling very regretful that she had lost the reason to blame An Xil.
But her mind jumped quickly, and she thought of other things. , "By the way, how long will it take for Xuanxu to complete its emergence?
I wonder what she will look like after emerging from the pupa. She should be very cute, right? A butterfly or something"
"It could also be a beetle or a moth. "Anhil replied casually.
"Shut up! "Ps. With Gordon's character and setting, it is impossible for the plot of Shura Field to appear, but Anhil may
