Luo Dan knew what Li Ruo was thinking and didn't feel offended by his question. He answered softly.
“This is a small yellow chrysanthemum that I picked off a cliff. There is nothing special and no mystery. If there is something special, it is probably because I have a special fate with it. I think I planted this little yellow chrysanthemum, but I didn’t think about it. It was extremely difficult to plant, so I used the life spring water, but it only restored a little energy."
Li Ruo didn't understand, but he probably understood what spiritual sustenance this should be. This is about Luo Dan. It's hard for him to comment on personal matters.
"Master Luo, why don't you pour a little more spiritual spring water on it, maybe it will help."
"No, I think plants are just like people, they just need to eat enough. It won’t be good if it lasts, whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing, that’s it.”
As he said this, he collected some life springs and planned to use them on his journey.
Just watering the chrysanthemum a little every day should have some effect.
"Brother Luo, it seems that the effectiveness of the Life Spirit Spring has ended here. We might as well look for other opportunities. We have delayed a lot of things for this little yellow chrysanthemum, and we can't delay it any longer. . ”
Luo Dan knew it, so he didn’t refuse her proposal.
“Okay, let’s find a place to rest and get on the road right away.”
Ye Man breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Ruo unknowingly joined their team and acted with them.
After a few people rested, they planned to continue their journey to explore the secret realm.
"Brother Luo, just in case, I will send some pets to explore the way ahead."
Luo Dan thought about it and felt that this would be safer, so he nodded. .
"Sorry to trouble you."
"No trouble, no trouble. We have known each other for such a long time and have fought side by side. We can be considered friends. Why should we be so polite between friends? We can be considered partners. !”
Ye Man touched his arm as a joke. The moment he touched the person, a bright color flashed across his eyes and his cheeks became slightly warm.
However, she hid it well in front of Rodan and quickly covered it up with a smile.
“Since you released your pet to explore the road, we might as well just wait there for a while.”
Luodan believed that there was no need to take risks, so it was better to wait for the results.
Ye Man also prefers stability, so he happened to think so and nodded in agreement.
If Li Ruo follows them all the way now, naturally he will do whatever they do.
After a while, the pet came back, but it was not in a relaxed mood.
Ye Man has a contractual relationship with his pet animals and can also sense their emotions.
Her face darkened slightly, it seemed like something bad had happened.
“What’s wrong?”
Lodan asked, his whole body immediately on alert.
Ye Man did not say anything, but picked up her pet. It seemed that one person and one pet were having their own unique communication. After a while, she took the pet back and told Luo Dan.
“No, Brother Luo, my animal pet has detected that there is a demon clan camp ahead, and it is not an ordinary demon clan, there are a lot of them. I am afraid we cannot defeat it with just a few of us. ”
As she said that, she frowned severely, feeling worried.
"We might as well take a detour. Who knows what those demons are doing? What do you think? It is not convenient for us to fight against too many demons now!"
This is not only an outburst. It is about thinking about life and planning for the future.
Everyone cherishes their lives. They must not lose their lives casually in this secret realm. The best way is to protect themselves wisely and not to confront others head-on.
Luo Dan did not express his position at first. He pursed his lips and seemed to be hesitant.
Ye Man knew that because of what happened just now, he had a grudge against the demons and didn't want to let them go easily.
"Brother Luo, a gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years. I know you don't like those demons now, but there is really no need to be tough. The number of demons there is not ordinary, so don't take risks. Ah!”
She had already held his hand, her eyes filled with pleading. She didn’t want anything to happen to the other person, nor did she want him to be motivated.
Looking at Ye Man's concerned eyes, Luo Dan finally pushed back the thought and said nothing.
He thought carefully for a while, then sighed and gave the answer.
"Okay, as you said, let's take a detour."
Having said that, his expression was obviously unwilling and helpless.
Ye Man was also very distressed, but there was nothing he could do. As long as Luo Dan could be made to give up his mind, everything would be fine.
A few people rested in place for a while.
Luo Dan frowned occasionally. Although he had agreed to Ye Man's proposal, he still looked worried. It seemed that because there was a demon stronghold in front of him, he couldn't help but have concerns about it.
"Ye Man, let's not rush on our way. Let's stay here today."
"What?"
Ye Man was confused and even thought he heard the wrong words at first.
"Brother Luo, what do you mean? I don't understand what you mean. Aren't we on our way?"
Luo Dan shook his head, his eyes deep.
"The demons are suddenly stationed here, and it is still a base camp. I am a little worried. I want to station nearby. I want to know the real plans of these demons."
Concern appeared on Ye Man's face.
"But Brother Luo, isn't this too risky? There are only three of us, but the other party is the demon clan's base camp!"
"No matter what they think, follow us No matter what, even if we really want to save the world and save people, we should Invite more people instead of joking about your own life, what do you think?”
Ye Man still tried to persuade and change the other party, but unfortunately, she didn’t know that Luo Dan was also quite stubborn. Once a person decides on something, he will never change it.
"If you are afraid, you can leave first. Don't worry, I won't blame you. I can understand your concerns, but I can't leave the demons alone. I must find out."
< br>"But I'm not the kind of reckless person, and I won't do anything casually. He came to the door, so he stopped nearby to observe first."
"Brother Luo..."
Ye Man was obviously anxious and even nervous, but Luo Dan said nothing. He interrupted her and showed no intention of changing his attitude.
"You don't have to say it. I have made up my mind. Ye Man, if you want to leave, you can go alone. We are still friends and partners. Maybe we can meet somewhere along the way after we separate from here."
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Ye Man stopped persuading him, but leaving was impossible.
"Brother Luo, I know I can't change your mind, but I won't leave. I want to be with you. Since you plan to station nearby, let's station ourselves nearby. No matter whether it’s up the mountain of swords or the sea of fire, I will definitely be with you.”
“Miss Ye...”
Luo Dan was startled and glanced at her, not knowing what to say.
"Brother Luo, you don't have to feel embarrassed. It's nothing to me. I'm happy to be with you. Maybe it's a new adventure?"
Luo Dan's lips twitched, but he still didn't say any words of rejection, he just said. "I will protect you well."
Ye Man felt warm in his heart.
"Your words are enough, but with the abilities of both of us, nothing will happen."
She still has the leisure to joke, and it seems that she is indeed open-minded and optimistic .
The two met each other's eyes and smiled at each other. Their relationship had grown closer unknowingly.
On the other side, Li Ruo looked at the two people who were smiling at each other and lowered his head slightly, wondering what he was thinking.
It was night, and they had already set up a camp nearby and settled down.
Li Ruo couldn't sleep no matter what, and seemed very worried. He was thinking about the demon clan's base camp and what Miss Ye said.
How come a base camp appears? As a demon, why hasn't he heard any relevant information?
Also, his ability is not high, and he may not be able to reach the core, but this kind of unexpected thing is really annoying and worrying.
After thinking about it, he thought that the demons must have bad intentions when they got together. For his lofty ideal, he decided to take risks to find out.
However, he did not tell Rodan and the others about this matter, and he did not want to implicate them.
So in the latter half of the night, after listening to their breathing and confirming that they were asleep, Li Ruo quietly got out of his tent and took a look at their tents.
He apologized to both of them in his heart.
I'm sorry, Mr. Luo, Miss Ye, forgive him for leaving without saying goodbye, but this time the actions of the demon clan's base camp are really abnormal. As a demon clan, but also as a person who wants the two races to coexist peacefully.
He must go to find out, but what is so dangerous is that he doesn't want to implicate anyone, so he just needs to go by himself.
Li Ruo slowed down and left. When he was about to leave, he couldn't help but look back at the two tents.
He was a little apologetic, but his eyes were more firm.
Then he turned around and left.
After walking for a while, we finally arrived at the gathering place of the demons. Sure enough, there were a large number of demons here, and the division of labor was clear.
Li Ruo thought for a while, but still did not alert the snake. He pretended to be an ordinary demon and tried to get in and inquire about the relationship.
But because he was too weak, he was directly assigned to carry the goods. Li was used to this kind of thing and didn't feel it was painful. He planned to find out the news while doing it.
But something unexpected happened, and he actually met an acquaintance here.
“Li Ruo, is that you?”
The moment he heard his name, Li Ruo reflexively wanted to run away.
He has not forgotten the true purpose of coming to the Demon Clan’s base camp. He was originally meant to blend in. If someone exposed him, the consequences would be disastrous. He quickened his pace and wanted to escape, but the demon was not at all what he wanted. .
The man's strength was obviously much greater than his, and he grabbed him by the back.
"Why are you running? Are you feeling guilty? I just called your name. What's the point of running away?"
Now that he has been caught, Li Ruo breaks the jar. , turned around carefully.
Sure enough, what caught his eye was an extremely familiar face.
It is a demon that I met before. He is more talented than me and has always been above me. Moreover, he also looks down on low-level demons like them. From time to time, he will tease and bully. Li Ruo was also bullied by them.
"Obsidian, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to see you here."
The demon in front of him smiled coldly.
"What a coincidence, I don't think it is a coincidence. I remember that a useless demon like you should not be qualified to appear in the base camp. Why do you appear here? What is your purpose?"
"I, I don't have any purpose, I just saw people of the same kind gathered here, so I just wanted to help..."
Before he finished his explanation, he was coldly interrupted by the person in front of him.
"Help, you are a person who often slips up, are you really sincerely helping? You are not just here to help and cause trouble, right?"
"Besides, you are not talking to other demons Even if I come back from a mission, I should come back with you. Why are you alone and the demons who followed you out? Why can't you see them? "
Hei Yao is pressing forward step by step. The man pushed Li Ruo closer to the corner step by step.
"I, I..."
Li Ruo wanted to explain, but didn't know what to say.
Obsidian smiled coldly.
"Oh, this is all too suspicious. Are you a traitor and spy sent by someone?"
"No, no, those people who are with me I went on a mission, but they thought I was stupid and didn’t want to take me with them. I didn’t know what to do, so I came to the base camp.”
He turned his eyes around and seemed to have finally thought of a good excuse. He originally thought he could get away with it, but the person in front of him suddenly sneered.
"Oh, it's not up to you whether this is the case or not. Come with us."
As he said that, several more demons appeared out of thin air behind him, and they were all wary. He looked at Li Ruo.
Li Ruo had realized something was wrong, but it was too late to run away.
“You, what do you want to do?”
Obsidian turned around and smiled gently at him, looking very friendly.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I just want to ask you some questions. Don't forget that this time the demon clan's mission is very important. No mistakes can be made in any link, not only you. , No matter which demon comes back, we will interrogate him."
Li Ruo swallowed, not knowing whether to believe it or not, but the uneasiness in his heart was gradually rising, but the other party had already said it. He had no reason not to cooperate due to his own reasons.
Wouldn’t it be too abnormal to keep struggling and resisting?
There was no other way. He could only try his best to suppress his heartbeat and enter a room with these demons.
However, after they actually entered, the demons' expressions instantly changed.
"Lie up this demon and torture him for questioning!"
Obsidian suddenly changed his face and sat on the side, while talking to other demons. Demons obey orders, and for them, there is no right or wrong in doing things.
Since their superiors have given orders, they just have to follow them.
The next second, Li Ruo was tied to a wooden stake.
One of the demons whipped him hard with a magic whip.
“Ah!”
Li Ruo wailed and screamed, her whole body trembling.
This is not an ordinary whip, but a whip that gathers magic power. This whip is not only used to attack demons, but also to torture demons. It is a famous punishment. (End of this chapter)
