Between mountains and seas

Chapter 30 Mountain Spiders Like Antiques

As soon as Shao Jingxing returned to the private restaurant, he received a warm welcome.

"Oh Brother Shao, you guys are back!" Ji Xiaojiu threw down the carrot she was carving in her hand, and rushed up holding the carving knife, "The disappearance of you scared everyone to death!"

A tourist in Ningbi Lake was dragged into the water in broad daylight, and the tourist who came to rescue them on the spot also disappeared. The girl who was rescued called the police at that time—her feet were entangled and pulled down, and when the pulling force disappeared, she floated up After arriving, he suddenly found that his ankle was wrapped with a severed snake tail!

There are snakes in the water!And seeing that the tail is thin and long, the cut part is more than 60 centimeters, so how big is the whole snake?

Thinking that she was entangled by a giant snake, the girl was going crazy with fright. Of course, she grabbed her mobile phone and called the police immediately, and no one could stop her.

The hooked snake has its own characteristics from its appearance to its habits. Gu Sheng rushed over to see the tail and knew what was going on. Afterwards, he found an unstable barrier gap at the bottom of Ningbi Lake.

If it was just Huo Qing who entered the gap alone, Gu Sheng and the others would not be so worried—although the third group is newly formed, it is not as good as the first two groups in terms of overall strength and number of personnel, but Huo Qing's personal strength is recognized First class——The problem is, Shao Jingxing, a rookie, also disappeared at the same time!

Gu Sheng walked around the edge of Ningbi Lake, and then called out the surrounding surveillance to see, and he could basically restore the scene at that time.Although the surveillance was far away and many details could not be captured at all, Shao Jingxing's inexplicable jumping into the street by the lake and disappearing was enough to explain the problem - he was pulled down by the hooked snake, and Huo Qing must have gone to save him.

The two were pulled into the world of mountains and seas together, and Shao Jingxing wasn't even an official member of the special affairs department, but was coaxed in by Huo Qing, who had only received less than a week of training!Moreover, the hooked snakes live in a special place. They are pulled in from the bottom of Ningbi Lake, and they are likely to fall into the water, and people naturally have disadvantages in the water.

Gu Sheng almost wanted to just tear open that crack and chase to the world of mountains and seas.

But just when he was going to use the boundary breaker in disregard of the regulations, the crack suddenly became active, and even the surrounding barrier seemed to collapse.In this way, Gu Sheng will never dare to use the boundary breaking device. If the crack is too large, the hooked snakes on the opposite side may come out and all invade Ningbi Lake; and Ningbi Lake is connected to the underground waterway. If they escape in all directions, the consequences will be unimaginable.

So Gu Sheng can only repair and strengthen the barrier here, and after the repair is completed, it is even more impossible to go to the world of mountains and seas to support Huo Qing.

What if something happens to Shao Jingxing and Huo Qing!Gu Sheng's hair was a few more gray.

"Fortunately, you are back!" Ji Xiaojiu pulled Shao Jingxing to whine, "If you don't come back again, Uncle Gu has already applied for another two groups of support to go to the world of mountains and seas to save you!"

Shao Jingxing also wanted to whine with her, this time it was really scary!Although they quickly found an unclosed crack near the corpse and came out, he still feels that shriveled head dangling in front of his eyes.

Ji Yan stood by the side for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said: "It's not that scary, is it?" People from the special affairs department go to the world of mountains and seas to perform tasks, and they go there for two or three days. It is him who occasionally goes shopping After a round, I didn't see any family members trying to catch people.

Only then did Ji Xiaojiu see Ji Yan, and her eyes widened immediately: "When did you come here!"

"Hey—" Ji Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I've been in here for a long time..." She didn't even see such a big person standing here.

"Why are you here?" Ji Xiaojiu looked suspiciously at her cousin.

Ji Yan pushed the glasses with a smile: "Come to inquire about the internal information of your special affairs department."

"Bah!" Ji Xiaojiu put her hands on her hips, "You have a good idea! Go, go!"

"Xiao Jiu." Huo Qing interrupted the fruitless bickering between the two, "We met in the world of mountains and seas. I need to report to Corey about a group of poachers."

"It's poaching again!" Ji Xiaojiu went to make the phone angrily, "I told Uncle Gu to come back, you guys go and change your clothes and take a shower, and come down for dinner later."

Coming out of the world of mountains and seas alive, and taking a hot bath is simply a whole body comfort.It was a pity that Shao Jingxing only had a shower - if he didn't want to come back quickly to report the poachers, he should have taken Huo Qing back to his villa first, how beautiful it would be to lie down in his jacuzzi at this time!

While thinking about his precious bathtub, Shao Jingxing turned on the shower in the bathroom, but after a few drops of cold water, the shower became mute.

What's going on?I haven't been back for a few days, is the shower about to go on strike?Shao Jingxing stretched out his hand and twisted it, only to hear a click, and the shower head was twisted off by him...

He swears he's useless!

Shao Jingxing put on his clothes again in embarrassment, went out with the shower head, and wanted to ask Ji Xiaojiu if there was anything he could replace.As soon as he reached the stairs, he heard Ji Yan's voice from below: "Lingbao Talisman? Why are you looking for meat Ganoderma lucidum?"

Meat ganoderma!Shao Jingxing is very sensitive to this word now, so he immediately pricked up his ears to listen.

"Yes." Huo Qing's voice was still so calm, "I heard that the Lingbao Talisman you made has the best preservation effect."

"Yes, it is possible." Ji Yan sounded like a profiteer, "But this is very troublesome. Let's just talk about the Lingbao Talisman-you know how short the shelf life is once the meat Ganoderma lucidum is picked? And, once picked, This smell will attract many coveted creatures..."

Before he finished speaking, Huo Qing interrupted: "I know all of this."

"Oh oh oh——" Ji Yan heheed twice, "That's right, your special affairs department must be aware of the difficulty of picking and preserving this thing. If this is the case, then the price..."

"Ji Ba, you profiteer!" Ji Xiaojiu seemed to come out of the kitchen, "This is saving lives! You're almost done."

"Hey, business is business..."

"Okay, so what did you say when you lied to me last time?" Ji Xiaojiu said aggressively, "The news is from our three groups, should the money you earn be divided among our three groups? Or should I sue you as a commercial espionage? "

"Ahem——" Ji Yan coughed dryly, "I didn't mean it last time, and it's just that once again. Okay, okay, I'll make a Lingbao Talisman for free, right? Hey, let me say, you guys Who is looking for the meat ganoderma, isn't your special affairs department not allowing you to accept such commissions in private?"

"It's not a private entrustment, I'm looking for it myself." Huo Qing said simply, "I know your market price."

"What's the market price!" Ji Xiaojiu yelled again, "You even saved him! You said it was free, so how can you say nothing! I said, do your job well, and don't cut corners!"

Ji Yan's voice was full of helplessness: "I'm not that bad, am I?"

"Hmph!" Ji Xiaojiu snorted disdainfully at her cousin, turned around and ran up the stairs.

Shao Jingxing stepped back quickly, pretending to have just come out of the room: "Xiao Jiu, the shower is broken..."

"It's broken?" Ji Xiaojiu glanced at his hand, "Then what, you go to the uppermost room to wash it first. That's Huang Yu's room, he doesn't live now, you go use his The bathroom is ready. The shower is on, we will fix it later."

Shao Jingxing took the change of clothes and followed the instructions to the last room.

Huang Yu's room is covered with posters in various styles.Messi and Izumi Takatsuki stood shoulder to shoulder, James Gao Yue dunked, and Hatsune Miku was below.There is a circle of small pictures posted on the head of the bed, with Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, Flower and Bird Roll, Daitengu, everything that one expects to see.

However, Shao Jingxing didn't care to look carefully, hid in the bathroom, turned on the shower and rinsed it, then froze with the soap.

He knew that it was not easy to find meat Ganoderma lucidum, but he didn't expect that the Lingbao Talisman alone seemed to be difficult to get.According to what Ji Yan said, the Lingbao Talisman he made is very expensive.But the most important thing is that it sounds like Huo Qing didn't intend to use the special affairs department's public funds to buy the Lingbao Talisman, so Ji Xiaojiu said that he saved Ji Yan and let him be free.

So, is Huo Qing planning to buy this spirit treasure talisman with his own money, and then go find meat ganoderma for him?

Shao Jingxing was shocked.Huo Qing was willing to take the risk to find meat Ganoderma lucidum for him, it was already very good, did he even plan to pay for it at his own expense?This, this is too...

Shao Jingxing couldn't find any words to describe Huo Qing harming himself and benefiting others—no, it was the noble sentiment of sacrificing oneself for others, when he heard a creak, the bathroom door was pushed open, and Huo Qing walked in.

"You, why are you—" Shao Jingxing was dumbfounded, what day is it today, are you giving benefits?

Huo Qing frowned habitually, as if he was lost in thought.He didn't start for a moment until he heard Shao Jingxing's voice: "Why are you here?" Shouldn't Shao Jingxing take a bath in their room?

Private restaurants and these dormitories are all equipped with separate bathrooms, usually Huo Qing and Shao Jingxing take turns washing.But after staying in the world of mountains and seas for a few days, Huo Qing also wanted to wash himself off early.He knew that Huang Yu's room was vacant these days, so he came here to borrow the bathroom, but when he opened the door, he suddenly saw a naked...

"The shower in the bathroom of our house is broken." Shao Jingxing stuttered a little.The main reason was that Huo Qing had already taken off his clothes, and only had a bath towel around his waist.Important parts are invisible—well, waist, legs, chest, buttocks, and abdominal muscles are also important parts.Of course, the most important thing is that all these parts of Huo Qing look good!

"I don't know..." Huo Qing wanted to leave.It's also because he was a little distracted thinking about things today, otherwise even if there is no sound of water in the bathroom, he should feel the temperature and humidity inside as soon as he opens the door.

"Hey——" Shao Jingxing saw that Huo Qing was going to retreat, so he hurriedly said, "Then what, let's wash together, this bathroom is also big."

This is really ignorant of conscience.How big is the bathroom in a dormitory? To be honest, it is not as big as the bathtub in Shao Jingxing's villa. When two people came in, it was a bit crowded.

Shao Jingxing had never used such a small bathroom in his life, but now he felt that the bathroom should be smaller.

"How's your injury?" Shao Jingxing swallowed, and rubbed against Huo Qing, "If it's inconvenient, let me help you?"

Huo Qing stretched out his arm at random, and in just two days, the wound made by the snake's teeth fell off even the scab, leaving only a light pink thread-like trace: "It's all right now."

The special affairs department also conducts group training, and the management is militarized. Everyone takes a bath in a public bathhouse, so Huo Qing doesn't think there is any problem with the current situation. He is thinking that Shao Jingxing is not used to bathing with others.Now that Shao Jingxing said it was all right, he didn't care, just passed Shao Jingxing and turned on the shower to flush the water.

Hot water sprayed down, and Shao Jingxing felt that his throat was a little dry in the dense water mist.He cleared his throat, looking for something to say: "Then what, is Ningbi Lake okay?"

"Hmm——" Huo Qing poured shampoo on his hair and rubbed it into a pile of foam. "The cracks have been sealed. If the hooked snakes don't dig in there, everything will be fine." Gu Sheng sealed it himself, and the quality is reliable.

"Then Bishu Mountain Villa can continue to operate?" Shao Jingxing approached stealthily like a thief, pretending to get soap, but his eyes went straight to Huo Qing.

Huo Qing is a typical person who looks thin when dressed and has flesh when undressed.He is like a model when he puts on his clothes, but when he takes off his clothes - the model does not have such beautiful muscles as him.At this moment, his back was facing Shao Jingxing, the water droplets from the tips of his hair mixed with some unwashed foam flowed down, passed through two symmetrical shoulder blades, and flowed down the groove in the center of the back until...

"You want to flush too?" Huo Qing had finished rinsing the foam off his hair in two or three strokes, and when he turned around, he was a little surprised to see Shao Jingxing so close.

"I, that, seems to have soap in my eyes—" Shao Jingxing quickly covered one eye.Only now did he realize that the soap was in his hand at all.

In fact, he wanted to cover his nose more.When Huo Qing turned around, the first thing that rushed into his line of sight was the abdominal muscles and the mermaid line. This time, there were no pants to block them.

"Then hurry up and rush." ​​Huo Qing didn't doubt that there was it. He backed away a few steps to make room, and answered his question casually: "The side of Bishu Mountain Villa will be inspected on time." Cracks may appear anywhere place, it is not realistic to seal up every possible crack.

Shao Jingxing actually didn't care much about Bishu Mountain Villa, he was just looking for something to say: "Then, can the Japanese find out? Speaking of which, what is he going to do to prevent the cold rhinoceros?"

"Most of the poachers from Japan are to obtain exotic beasts to make shikigami." Huo Qing said with disgust, "It will be troublesome to check his identity, but he can always be found."

"That matter is settled, what were you thinking about so preoccupied just now?" Otherwise, you would definitely not have this benefit today.Isn't this rounding equal to mandarin ducks—cough cough...

Huo Qing didn't know that Shao Jingxing's heart was bursting with light yellow bubbles. After pondering for a moment, he replied, "Actually, I think the crack in Ningbi Lake is a bit similar to the situation of the door on the mountain spider site before."

"What do you mean?" Shao Jingxing asked absently.Huo Qing turned around again, he could only see a profile...

"I think the crack on the Antique Street was not formed naturally, but was dug out by the mountain spider." Huo Qing glanced at Shao Jingxing, saw his eyes were straight, thought he didn't understand, and explained, "The doors that have appeared on the mountain spider's site seem to all lead to the antique street."

"Oh——" Perhaps because of the water vapor in the bathroom today, the metal-like sharpness in Huo Qing's voice was softened, and it became a little more magnetic. Shao Jingxing was distracted when he heard it, and then suddenly Responding, "What? Well, is the site of the mountain spider connected to the antique street?"

As for the connection between the world of mountains and seas and the real world, Shao Jingxing has never quite figured it out.The main reason is that Ji Xiaojiu is actually not very clear about it.According to her, the two worlds have a corresponding relationship, but they are not as neat as two maps stacked, point-to-point and face-to-face.

The two worlds themselves are in motion, and the enchantment is actually a kind of space, and the door does not necessarily move forward in a straight line during the opening process. It is possible to open the door twice at the same point, but the place it leads to is not the same. no the same.

The detailed theory here involves many aspects, and Ji Xiaojiu couldn't grasp it, let alone Shao Jingxing.In short, he knew that the Special Affairs Division had found several fixed corresponding points—for example, Buzhou Mountain must correspond to Beiming—but it is not easy to say where you open other cracks. open method etc.

So now, the mountain spider dug a fixed passage leading to the antique street?

Huo Qing shook his head: "As far as I know, there are three different doors in the place of the mountain spider, but they all lead to the Antique Street or its vicinity."

Shao Jingxing looked confused: "What does that mean?" Was his mind only focused on Huo Qing?Why does he understand every word, but can't understand all the words together?

Huo Qing hesitated.In fact, he didn't think about this matter very clearly himself, so he hesitated whether to bring it up to Gu Sheng, and reported it to the special affairs department to strengthen the protection of Antique Street.

"I think that the mountain spiders seem to be particularly interested in the antique street..." So the several doors on their site were dug out by themselves, and the purpose is the antique street!

"Mountain spiders want to go to Antique Street?" If Huo Qing hadn't said this, Shao Jingxing would have laughed out loud, "Do they like antiques?"

Huo Qing glanced at him, and looked back at his smile: "There are two possibilities. First, the Antique Street and their sites are corresponding points; second, the Antique Street has something that attracts them."

"Then, which possibility is it?"

"There are two possibilities." Huo Qing wiped the water on his face, "The induction between the corresponding points is stronger, so if there is something that attracts them, it is easier for them to feel it."

Shao Jingxing blinked and thought for a while before he understood what he meant: "What could it be?"

Huo Qing sighed slightly: "I don't know." It was precisely because he couldn't imagine what it would be that his guess was just a guess. He was sure that several "doors" on the mountain spider's site had been dug out before, and he probably wouldn't consider submitting this guess yet.
