Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 127 I'll Sleep With You
He turned his head to look at Tang Lan. Tang Lan's face was hidden in the hood of her sweatshirt, making it impossible to see her expression.
Did she discover this place by accident, or did she bring him here on purpose?
Just then, Tang Lan spoke again.
"Do you really believe that old man when he says he's a lake guardian?"
"What else could he be?" Qiao Yu played dumb.
Tang Lan took off her hood, revealing a somewhat pale face. It wasn't a pretty face, the kind that would disappear in a crowd, but there was a noticeable difference in color between her face and neck.
Tang Lan seemed to see through Qiao Yu's inner thoughts and said directly, "I didn't skin that thing."
"Someone has been following us since we entered this dungeon. That's why I've been silent."
Qiao Yu was silent for a while.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Because you can use your physical body to deal with a scarecrow possessed by an evil spirit."
Qiao Yu's eyes narrowed, and the Yaoguang Knuckle instantly appeared in his hand. He was ready to make a move.
Although Tang Lan was a mid-level wood-type mage, at this close range, he might have a chance to kill her directly.
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm."
Tang Lan waved her hand, and the surrounding vines wrapped around her hand as if they had come to life.
"My talent allows me to communicate with plants. The plants told me that someone is following us and that you can use your physical body to deal with the evil spirit scarecrow."
"What is your purpose?" Qiao Yu asked.
"Simple, I want to cooperate with you to ensure that I can enter the Dispersing Soul Lake," Tang Lan said without hesitation.
"Why choose me? Mi Yuan and Cao Shao are both stronger than me."
"Because my wood seeds don't work on mid-level players."
A smile finally appeared on Tang Lan's expressionless face.
At the same time, Qiao Yu felt a vibrant vitality appear in his body, and strands of wood-type elements emerged from him.
Qiao Yu's expression changed. He looked around and found a small green seed attached to his chest at some point.
And the roots had already deeply penetrated his flesh.
Qiao Yu tried to pull out the wood seed, but a piercing pain immediately entered Qiao Yu's mind, causing him to groan.
"Impossible, when did you do it?"
Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized!
"The yellow weasel! When you attacked the yellow weasel, it was to plant this seed in me!"
"Not bad, you're not too stupid. It seems I chose the right person," Tang Lan did not deny.
Qiao Yu's face darkened instantly. He had been thanking Tang Lan like a fool.
As expected, none of the players who had made it to the mid-level were easy to deal with.
"You call this cooperation?" Qiao Yu pointed to the wood seed on his chest and questioned.
"Don't worry, as long as I can successfully enter the Dispersing Soul Lake, I will let you go."
"And the wood seed is not a slave contract. On the contrary, it is beneficial to you. You can check your skill bar," Tang Lan said.
Qiao Yu looked down, and sure enough, a new skill had appeared in his skill bar.
《Wood Absorption》: Level: Depends on the concentration of plant aura, current level is B.
Effect: Players can absorb the vitality of surrounding plants to restore health points. The denser the plant aura, the better the health point recovery effect.
Looking at the extra skill, Qiao Yu wasn't happy at all.
"Let's go, we should go back."
Tang Lan, who was on the side, had already collected enough vines and prepared to return to the camp.
"Be careful of that old man, he's the one who's been following us all along."
Qiao Yu was silent all the way. This wood seed was definitely not as simple as Tang Lan said, otherwise Tang Lan wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to plant it in him.
The Drought Demon Curse hadn't been resolved yet, and now he had gotten involved with a parasitic wood seed, as well as that old geezer who he didn't know what he was going to do.
It was really wolves in the front and tigers in the back, and a large, angry crocodile in the middle.
The difficulty of the D-level dungeon was beyond his imagination. No wonder Ji Pingyang thought he was just here to die.
After returning to the camp, Tang Lan put down the vines, still with that taciturn look.
Qin Qianxue and the others didn't suspect anything, after all, Tang Lan had been like this since entering the dungeon.
On the contrary, Qiao Yu's expression made Qin Qianxue a little worried.
"What's wrong, Qiao Yu? You look terrible. Are you feeling unwell?"
Qiao Yu: "It's nothing, I just met a very bad person who lied to me. That person is all cunning except for their butt."
Tang Lan: "..."
She took a deep breath and silently walked a little further away.
If she stayed here, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to help but kill Qiao Yu right now.
"It's okay."
Qin Qianxue smiled like a flower, reached out and rubbed Qiao Yu's hair like a big sister next door.
"You're still young and haven't met many people. You won't be deceived again after you've met a few more people."
"Speaking of which, my nephew is about the same age as you. I'll introduce you when I have time. You should be able to become good friends."
Nephew?
Qiao Yu had a bad feeling and asked carefully.
"Sister Qianxue, what's your nephew's name?"
"My nephew? His name is quite nice, he's called..."
"Qianxue!"
Mi Yuan's shout interrupted Qin Qianxue's introduction.
"Qianxue, come quickly. Is this how you make corn rib soup? Do you put cilantro in it?"
"Coming!"
Qin Qianxue gave Qiao Yu an apologetic smile.
"I'll go help Mi Yuan first. I'll introduce you next time when I have time."
Under the tinkering of Qin Qianxue and Mi Yuan, a table of delicious dishes was brought up.
Sliced white chicken, corn rib soup, sweet and sour pork, twice-cooked pork...
On the other side, Cao Shao and Wu Chengfu had also built two simple shelters.
The six people, who had been mentally strained in the Dispersing Soul Rainforest, finally ushered in a long-lost moment of relaxation.
"Sister Qianxue, your cooking is really good!"
Qiao Yu praised as he ate. Anyway, he couldn't solve anything now, so he might as well relax. At least he could be a full dead ghost if he ate his fill.
"Eat more if you like it. There's plenty," Qin Qianxue responded with a smile.
As he was eating, Qiao Yu suddenly felt a chilling murderous aura, and he shivered.
When he looked up, he found that Mi Yuan was staring at him coldly.
He quickly filled a large bowl of rib soup. Looking at the lethal amount of cilantro floating in the soup, Qiao Yu closed his eyes and drank it like he was drinking Chinese medicine.
"Sister Mi Yuan, the soup you made is also so delicious!"
Qiao Yu sighed inwardly. As expected, you can't praise just one woman!
"Good boy, drink more if it's good."
Mi Yuan smiled and gave Qiao Yu another bowl of soup. Qiao Yu's face turned green.
After dinner.
After spreading some dry downy grass on the ground, two simple large beds were completed.
Qin Qianxue clapped her hands and said.
"Okay, you men have one shelter, and we women have one. We have things to do tomorrow, good night!"
Qin Qianxue turned her head and went into the shelter on the right.
Cao Shao didn't speak, gave Qiao Yu a cold look, and then walked into the shelter on the left with Wu Chengfu.
In the blink of an eye, Qiao Yu was the only one left standing outside in the cold wind.
Qiao Yu didn't dare to sleep with Cao Shao and the others. He wouldn't even know if he was killed and dismembered in the middle of the night.
Just as Tang Lan was about to enter the shelter on the right, Qiao Yu grabbed her.
"I'll sleep with you!"
