Chapter 179 Is the Mountain Alive? Qiao Bai: You Are Fooling Yourself!

Chapter 180 Is the mountain alive? Qiao Bai: You are fooling me... You are fooling yourself!

"A-choo!"

"A-choo--!"

Qiao Bai did not sneeze. The two children sitting opposite him were sneezing crazily.

With Qiao Bai as the center, Xiao Wu's feathers were so many that they were like flowers scattered by a fairy, falling down crazily, and they could not stop at all.

The more Xiao Wu lost feathers, the more crazily he fluttered, and the more crazily he fluttered, the more he lost feathers.

It was like a dead loop.

Qiao Bai quickly hugged Xiao Wu: "Calm down, calm down, it's okay, it's okay."

Xiao Wu: QAQ

No!

It's not okay!

This is obviously very serious!

If it falls again, the bird will be bald!

Bald!

The cat, cat, insect, little white snake and little jellyfish on the side hid far away, curiously looking in the direction of Xiao Wu.

Wow--

The big sister is losing feathers!

Will we lose feathers?

Several little guys exchanged glances with their eyes, secretly looked at each other, and found out - oh, they all have no hair!

The cat bug and the little white snake are all covered with scales, and the scales feel different.

As for the little jellyfish... let alone scales and hair, it doesn't even have skin on its body, but a layer of bouncy water film like jelly.

The three looked at each other, feeling sympathetic and a little secretly happy.

Oh.

Fortunately, fortunately.

It seems that they will not shed hair.

Little Wu: (￢_￢)

Little Wu suddenly turned his head to look at the three little guys hiding secretly. His golden red eyes seemed to see through their inner thoughts at a glance, and he was so angry that he almost let them spontaneously combust on the spot.

Cat bug, little white snake, little jellyfish: Quiet as a chicken.jpg

"Big brother, the bird you raised is shedding hair... A-choo!" Ah Yun complained to Qiao Bai with tears in her eyes, sneezing continuously, with a pitiful expression.

Qiao Bai: "..."

"Ahem." Qiao Bai's face looked strange for a moment, and he coughed twice. He hugged Xiao Wu, who was lying flat and no longer struggling, and said helplessly: "Uh... I didn't expect it. Maybe Xiao Wu has reached the molting season?"

A Yong: "?"

"Do pets also have a molting season? But my sister's big tiger will not shed hair!" A Yong looked at Qiao Bai with a condemning look that deceived a child.

Qiao Bai: "...Big tigers are big tigers, and Xiao Wu is small Wu. Different pets have different situations. You can't generalize."

Hearing this, A Yong reluctantly showed an expression of belief, and quietly looked at Qiao Bai with an expression of "You make it up, I'll listen."

Qiao Bai rubbed his nose.

Ah.

Children nowadays...Okay, okay.

Qiao Bai turned on his talent skill and looked down at Xiao Wu, wanting to see if there was any accident with Xiao Wu.

Then everything was normal.

There was no extra buff or special status.

So is it really the shedding season?

Qiao Bai thought uncertainly.

It doesn't seem right.

Obviously, there was no such thing last year.

Qiao Bai had no answer to this question for the time being, so he could only put it aside and turn his attention to the two children in front of him.

"How is it? Do you trust me more?" Qiao Bai waved to the cat and cat worm, the little white snake and the little jellyfish who were huddled together, and the three little guys ran towards Qiao Bai in an instant.

The cat and cat worm took away half of Qiao Bai's arms.

The little white snake wrapped around Qiao Bai.

The little jellyfish was suspended beside Qiao Bai, moving up and down and left and right as if swimming in the air, and from time to time it waved its long, colorful tentacles that seemed to be tangled if it was wrong.

Qiao Bai smiled and looked at Ayun and Ayong, hoping to get a positive answer, and then learn more about the red soil exploration team from them, and some gossip that only insiders or family members knew would be even better!

What Qiao Bai didn't expect was that after hearing his words, Ayun and Ayong both showed a hesitant expression, as if they were thinking.

More trust...

Yeah.

Not really.

I even thought this older brother was a little unreliable.

Thinking of this, Ayun and Ayong looked at each other.

As twins, their tacit understanding allowed them to easily read each other's thoughts when they didn't want to quarrel.

But...

"Will you really go into the forbidden land of red soil?" After thinking about it, Ayong, who thought he was the older brother, hugged his two short arms together and put on a posture of negotiating with Qiao Bai.

Ayun opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but was beaten back by Ayong's eyes.

Ayong said that he didn't let his sister speak because this was a conversation between men!

It was definitely not because he thought his sister was a little stupid and accidentally told all the news.

Fortunately, Ayun just tilted her head and didn't have a tacit understanding with Ayong at this time.

Seeing that Ayun was shocked, Ayong looked up at Qiao Bai again, and his little face showed an expression similar to that of an adult.

And it must be admitted that there is really a bit of special aura of a superior in it.

It's just too immature, and it's just a simple imitation at first glance.

Qiao Bai's mind changed.

Being able to imitate to this extent, especially imitating the most important essence of temperament.

Ayong is definitely not someone who can do it just by casually watching. This kind of imitation in essence, unless it is a natural talent, or it is the result of following someone with such a superior aura for a long time.

Thinking of this, Qiao Bai smiled faintly.

Caught a big fish.

Ayong: "?"

Ayong, who was wary but not very cautious, could never have imagined that the despicable adults could actually get the information they wanted from him by analyzing his expression.

However, Ayong still imitated as much as possible, actively mastering the rhythm and talking to Qiao Bai: "As soon as the incident in Yancheng came out, the forbidden area of ​​Hongtu City was temporarily closed to the outside world. You can't enter without special permission."

"And something happened just now. If you go in at this time..." It will be very dangerous.

Ayong didn't say the rest of the words, but his pair of stubborn black eyes showed his thoughts vividly.

"I understand, not only to show strength, but also to show power, right." Qiao Bai touched his chin and nodded.

Taking out his phone, Qiao Bai searched for his name on the web page. Not surprisingly, the entry with his name popped up directly.

The introduction of him in it was too comprehensive.

Some of the news that Qiao Bai himself was not sure about were written in a very detailed manner.

Especially that photo... Qiao Bai had the urge to cover his face.

Although it was not an ID photo, it was not much better than an ID photo.

Anyway, Qiao Bai had never taken a photo. It should be a screenshot taken by netizens from his academic conference video. It was a bit blurry.

"Here." Qiao Bai handed the phone to the two children.

Ayong and Ayun's expressions were still a little confused.

Hmm?

Why give them the phone?

Then...

"Wow!"

Ayong and Ayun put their heads together and looked at the introduction of Qiao Bai's various achievements and identity in the entry.

The youngest third-level researcher, expected to become the youngest second-level researcher.

There were so many achievements that it was dazzling.

The most shocking thing was Qiao Bai's age, 19 years old.

Ayong and Ayun are children, not fools.

Especially since they have an amazing sister, they know how amazing a person who can achieve so much at the age of 19 is.

Not to mention that the entry also mentions Qiao Bai's achievements as a beastmaster.

Champion of the freshman beastmaster league of two top schools, Yulong and Honghu.

No. 1 in the beastmaster combat power list in South China.

Not much.

But compared with Qiao Bai's age, the gold content is still there.

Instantly.

The eyes of Ayong and Ayun looking at Qiao Bai changed.

"Big brother is so amazing!"

"Humph! It's just average! But it's barely acceptable!"

Qiao Bai: "..."

His fists hardened.

No wonder everyone likes the caring little cotton jacket, the other mouth is really too bad at talking.

"Ahem, okay." Qiao Bai coughed twice in a pretentious manner, and smiled at Ayong and Ayun again: "Now? Can you tell me about your affairs?"

"And your sister?"

Ayong and Ayun looked at each other, and the two nodded heavily as if they had made a decision.

Speak?

Go ahead!

"Our sister is the leader of the Red Earth Expedition Team!"

"Sister is super powerful! She is a sixth-level beastmaster!"

A big bomb right from the start.

Qiao Bai: Huh?

Hmmmm?

Sixth-level beastmaster?

Qiao Bai touched his chin, that's a bit of strength.

"Hmmmm." Qiao Bai nodded: "Keep talking."

"Sister took a very long mission!"

Qiao Bai: I understand, a long-term mission.

"Then my sister brought many other brothers, sisters, and uncles in, and only came back once every three or five days. This dessert shop was opened by my sister!"

"This is called a base!"

Hearing this, Qiao Bai looked around the pink and tender dessert shop again. He felt uncomfortable after entering it.

Base?

Is there no one in the red soil exploration team who dislikes this place because it is too pink?

Qiao Bai glanced at the two children in front of him.

Oh.

Ayun's expression was quite happy.

Ayong was quite disgusted.

"This time, my sister went in the day before yesterday. If there was no accident, she would have been back today or tomorrow."

Speaking of this, Ayong and Ayun, who were still in high spirits just now, became silent.

An accident happened.

It was the first accident that was very serious at first glance and could not be easily solved.

"Did she say anything to you before she went in this time?" Qiao Bai's fingers tapped on the table from time to time, trying to make Ayong and Ayun recall it carefully.

"For example, did she find any special places?"

"Did she encounter any special extraordinary creatures?"

"Where are you going this time, and what are you preparing?"

Qiao Bai thought of the video and the mountains that he was said to want to explore. His intuition told him that the problem should be there.

It's always good to collect more information before going in.

Otherwise, who knows if the same situation will happen after entering as the Red Earth Expedition Team.

Lost contact inexplicably?

Or in the forbidden land...

Qiao Bai could understand why these two children looked so anxious. It was actually because the forbidden land itself was not a safe place, let alone the forbidden land that had not been fully explored in the foggy part.

Danger within danger.

Two people will become ill and seek medical treatment in a hurry, posting on the forum, and then bump into each other... Fate, it's all fate.

Qiao Bai forcibly ignored the key role played by "angel".

Anyway, no matter how you ask, it's fate.

"Well..." Ayun and Ayong were both lost in thought, as if they were recalling Qiao Bai's words: "It seems to be nothing..."

"It's all trivial things, the news about the forbidden land that I mentioned." Qiao Bai said with a smile.

Ayun's eyes lit up after hearing this. She shook her head, her ponytail swayed, and said excitedly: "I remembered it! When my sister told me a bedtime story at night, she said that the mountains seemed to be alive. !”

Qiao Bai: "?"

Why would a bedtime story have such hardcore chat content?

oh.

Sister, a sixth-level beastmaster who specializes in telling her own adventure stories and changing her adventure experience.

Before Qiao Bai asked anything, Ayong looked at Ayun with an incredulous look: "When did sister tell you? Why didn't I know?!"

"When I sneaked into my sister's room to sleep..." Ayun, who was very excited just now, her voice became softer and she looked at the sky and the earth but not into Ayong's eyes.

Seeing that the two children were about to quarrel again, Qiao Bai quickly interrupted them.

"The mountain seems to be alive. How did I tell you this sentence? Can you tell me that bedtime story?" Qiao Bai said with a smile.

A Yong also stared at A Yun who had escaped, and was bound to hear the story.

Ayun nodded.

The story is finished in a few words.

It’s not very long. When I first heard it, I thought it was a reworking of recent experiences, with some childlike elements added to coax children.

But because the Red Soil Expedition Team has been circling the mountain recently, exploring the flowers, trees, rocks and land inside, most of the bedtime stories are centered around the mountain.

Ordinary yet extraordinary.

The most special thing is that after telling the half-truth and half-false story, he added another sentence - "That mountain seems to be alive."

Qiao Bai frowned.

Intuition - Oh, his intuition is not necessarily accurate, and most of the time it is used to deceive people.

But at this time, Qiao Bai's intuition told him that this sentence was very important.

Even... maybe it can be related to Yancheng's situation this time.

"Is there anything else?" After writing down this clue, Qiao Bai prepared to enter the forbidden land of red soil and then conduct a careful study based on the actual situation.

Ayun and Ayong talked about other things.

Not too important information.

However, Qiao Bai could roughly piece together the situation of the Forbidden Land of Red Earth City and the Beast Control Alliance of Red Earth City.

The production capacity of red soil series resources is low.

The market demand is huge.

The reward received by the expedition team is low.

Everyone complained about this president.

Qiao Bai: I feel the kindness of President Huangzhou again.

At the same time, Qiao Bai was curious about a question.

The income that the red earth series resources can bring should be quite high. If the expedition team is paid low, where does the middle part of the money go?

Swallowed?
