Chapter 46 Not Simple(1/2)

Hearing Jiang Baimian's answer, the middle-aged man with long black hair and a loose black robe found a seat by the bonfire and sat down casually, looking very free and easy.

The blond and blue-eyed woman in a gray-blue robe sat down without caring much, as if she was not worried about Shang Jianyao and others hiding evil intentions.

This confidence and such an attitude made Jiang Baimian laugh:

“We just look so harmless?”

Bai Chen, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong had similar thoughts at the same time:

These two people are obviously confident!

"Didn't you just discover the ruins of an old world city? Everyone has a chance, so how can you still have time to kill each other?" The middle-aged man stretched out his hands and took warmth on the bonfire. "What's the name?"

Jiang Baimian sat back to his original position and replied calmly:

“Jiang Baimian.

"We came from a certain force and went to the Black Swamp Wilderness to complete certain tasks."

She took the initiative to reveal her identity, but she didn't say it completely. She hoped that the other party would be scruples, and everyone would spend tonight peacefully and part ways.

The reason why she agreed to the two people on the other side to come to the campfire to communicate was mainly because Shang Jianyao's awakened abilities are limited, and the close distance is definitely better than the long distance.

Even if there are awakened people on the other side, the key target will definitely be Jiang Baimian, who is like the leader. In this way, Shang Jianyao will have a chance - even if the other party can use a range-type ability similar to the "hungry ghost realm", at this distance, Shang Jianyao, who has already prepared, has time to complete a counterattack and make corresponding impact.

"You can tell." The middle-aged man had no doubt about Jiang Baimian's identity that he took the initiative to reveal. "No matter how you look, body shape, skin, clothing, and weapons, you are not like wilderness wanderers. Haha, there is only that little girl, which makes me unsure."

He refers to Bai Chen, who is roasting a rabbit.

Jiang Baimian was about to reply, "We are not young anymore", the middle-aged man had already continued:

"My name is Du Heng, wood, earth, balanced Heng.

"I am a history researcher and an antiquity scholar. To be honest, although I have been joining the Hunter Guild for more than 20 years, I have always been a novice before and have only recently been promoted to the official position. Alas, I haven't received a few commissions, and I'm more of them using their resources and information to complete my own research. So, a ruin of an old world city that has never been explored was discovered, and I came."

He kept a smile while speaking, looking very kind.

But his answers became increasingly difficult for Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and others to not be despised:

An antiquities scholar and history researcher who seemed to have only a pistol, dared to sway on the dust alone, explore the ruins of the city, and live to middle age - this itself shows that the other party is definitely not simple.

The blonde woman followed her and introduced herself:

"My name is Galalan, a Taoist priest."

Although she can speak silly, some pronunciations are still a bit strange, which makes Shang Jianyao and others feel that the style is not too correct.

Garoland continued with a faint smile:

"I came here because there were a lot of people walking here, so I followed him to take a look."

"It's so casual..." Jiang Baimian commented without hesitation.

Garoland responded with a smile:

“What about it?

“Since the destruction of the old world, many people have understood a fact:

"Although we humans claim to be higher creatures, in the face of the world and destiny, we are like fallen leaves in the wind..."

While speaking, she pointed to the sparse trees in the distance:

"I can only dance with the wind, and I can't decide where I want to go.

"Since you cannot resist the arrangement of fate, it is better to give up your thoughts in this regard, move with the wind, change your thinking, and see the various scenery along the way, find the existence of the Tao, and then use this to distinguish between reality and falsehood, completely break free from the shackles, and last for eternal years.

"As the saying goes, man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature."

Seeing such a beautiful blonde woman talking in front of her, Long Yuehong and others were a little confused.

They could understand every word the other party said, but connecting them into a whole made them quite confused.

In the end, they can only summarize the other person's style of behavior:

Stay at your disposal.

"I probably understand." Jiang Baimian nodded seriously.

Du Heng looked at Galoland thoughtfully, then pointed at the rabbit and said:

"When I came here just now, I saw two hares. This shows that prey here is not too scarce. Why do you only catch one? So many people..."

Hearing this question, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong's faces turned red in different degrees.

Jiang Baimian looked at them from the corner of his eyes, laughed and shook his head:

"God has the virtue of living a life."

Du Heng showed a sudden enlightenment expression:

"Are you a member of the monks' sect? Or a Crystal Consciousness sect?"

"No." Jiang Baimian explained casually, "We just met a mechanical monk from the monk's sect, and had some conflict with him and had a big fight."

Du Heng opened his mouth slightly, and thought for a while and said:

"Did that monk wear a red cassock?"

"Yes." Jiang Baimian did not hide it.

Du Heng and Galoland once again looked at the four-person team.

After the former withdrew his gaze, he smiled and said:

"You are still quite awesome.

"As far as I know, the probability of those mechanical monks wearing red cassocks in the monk's sect is not too low."

Galoland nodded and said that he had heard of it too.

"He is." Jiang Baimian confirmed the speculation of the two people on the other side.

She looked around without letting her eyes stop on anyone, and then asked with a smile:

"Two, do you seem to have a deep understanding of the awakened one?"

Since Du Heng said, "Isn't chatting good?" and Galoland advocates being content with things, she is not polite and begins to seek information that is absolutely rare for ordinary people.

If the other party doesn't answer, she will definitely not force it. If she answers, she will consider splitting the rabbit's legs. Anyway, the four of them never thought of eating with such a small prey. The highlight is energy bars and compressed biscuits. If it really doesn't work, it will be a few military cans.

Du Heng touched the beard on his mouth:

"Oh, this is what I've got."

He said this and showed a clear smile.

Before the blonde female Taoist Galoland spoke, Du Heng proudly added:

"However, I have known several awakened people. They told me that awakened people are also exploring and pursuing a new world in their hearts, just as everyone on the dust is looking for the door to a new world in reality, hoping to stop being hungry and not being troubled by diseases and distortions.

“Yes, the monks’ church called that ‘the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss’.”

Shang Jianyao listened very seriously and seemed to have some enlightenment.

At this time, Galoland said softly:

"The mechanical monks in the monk's corps who wear red robes have a certain probability of entering the 'Sea of ​​Origin'."

"Yes, 'Sea of ​​Origin'! They mentioned this term." Du Heng slapped his thigh.

After listening quietly, Jiang Baimian asked thoughtfully:

"If you cross the 'Sea of ​​Origin', where will you arrive?"

"I don't know." Garoland responded peacefully.

Du Heng smiled and did not answer, but did not say that he didn't know.

Jiang Baimian thought for two seconds and asked instead:

"Where did you enter the 'Sea of ​​Origin'?"

Garoland looked at the jumping red bonfire and said:

“Everyone calls it differently.”

At this time, Du Heng interrupted with a smile:

"What is more recognized is: the 'Hall of Stars'."

Shang Jianyao's eyes moved slightly, but his expression did not change significantly.

"That's it." Jiang Baimian nodded slightly, "I have never contacted several awakened people and have no idea about them."

After saying that, she didn't give Du Heng and Galalan a chance to speak, and turned her head to Bai Chen:

“How is the baking?”

"It's almost done." Bai Chen took back the branches of the rabbit.

"I came from afar and I'll give them some to them." Jiang Baimian ordered.

Bai Chen knew how rare the information he had just heard was. He was completely unresistent. After letting the roasted rabbit go away, he pulled off his hind legs and handed them to Du Heng and Galoland respectively.
To be continued...
