SWDnovel Chapter 270 "Heart"
Chapter 270 "Heart"
Wuxie did not reveal what the plan was. He just said that everyone would know when everything started to be implemented.
After that reunion, Wuxie disappeared for a long time.
No one could find him, not even the fat man who stayed in Wushanju. Wuxie did not tell him where he was going.
The fat man stayed there doing nothing for a while, and when he heard the news again, he told everyone that he had returned to Banai.
Qin Yuchen continued to carry out missions with Zhang Qiling.
Qingyu can maintain the appearance of a child for longer and longer periods of time, but he still won't open his eyes or speak on his own.
Maybe it's to maintain his aloof image as a god.
It's winter again.
Qin Yuchen and Zhang Qiling traveled from the cold north to the breezy south.
There, we celebrated the New Year and found what the locals call the "heart" of the forest.
The so-called "heart" is actually a naturally formed mountaintop lake surrounded by mountains.
And the energy is hidden in the deepest part of the lake.
Only Qin Yuchen went down. He changed his equipment and followed 007's guidance to dive down.
As we dived down until the last ray of sunlight disappeared, the temperature in the water dropped sharply.
Qin Yuchen looked at the white frost formed on his hands due to the low temperature, wiped off the fog on his diving goggles, and swam towards a shrine.
The shrines are distributed in the four directions of east, south, west and north, and are shaped like toads. In the middle of the four shrines seems to be an altar, and the relief carvings on the altar have faded.
Qin Yuchen rotated all the shrines 180 degrees so that they faced the altar.
Suddenly, the entire altar sank into the mud and sand, the lake water shook, and a vortex with strong suction was formed, sweeping up everything around it.
Qin Yuchen was also involved.
When he opened his eyes again, he had fallen into a freezing cold pool.
Qin Yuchen climbed ashore, took off his oxygen mask and diving goggles, exhaled a breath of cool air, turned on the flashlight and looked around.
This place was completely an ice cave. The extremely low temperature formed a huge contrast with the outside. All the water droplets around condensed into ice, and even the surface of the pool next to him was covered with thin ice flakes floating on it.
There was more white frost on Qin Yuchen's eyelashes and hair, and the temperature he felt also went from cold at the beginning to hot.
In order not to waste time, he jumped into the pool again and dived down.
By the time he found what he wanted, Qin Yuchen's hands and feet were already numb from the cold.
He did not stop, put away his things and let 007 deal with them in the space, while he quickly went ashore.
The moment I came into contact with the sunlight, my body finally warmed up.
The white frost on his body turned into water droplets, dripping, making Qin Yuchen shiver violently.
"Go in and change your clothes quickly." Zhang Qiling helped Qin Yuchen take off his oxygen tank, hugged him with a bath towel, and urged him to go to the tent and change out of his diving suit.
Qin Yuchen nodded and walked into the tent wrapped in a bath towel.
When he came out again, Zhang Qiling had already lit a fire and boiled some water.
A cup of medicine at the right temperature was handed to Qin Yuchen. Qin Yuchen took it and thanked him with a smile.
"Why are you so cold?" Zhang Qiling frowned, and while wiping the man's hair, he also tested the temperature of Qin Yuchen's body.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I found nothing unusual.
"That thing created an ice cave, and once you go in, it's an ice pond." Qin Yuchen swallowed the medicine in one gulp, then poured a cup of hot water to warm his hands.
"But luckily, 007 helped me block out most of the cold air, so I didn't catch a cold."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sneeze without warning betrayed him.
Qin Yuchen: "..."
Zhang Qiling didn't comment, but just looked at him with amusement and opened his arms to let him come over.
Qin Yuchen put down the cup, half stood up and snuggled into Zhang Qiling's arms.
-
On his way back, Qin Yuchen met an acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time.
The group of people dressed in ordinary clothes and looked ordinary.
When they met in the woods, both sides claimed to be hunters going up the mountain to hunt.
Qin Yuchen's group didn't catch any prey and was preparing to go home, while the other group had just gone up the mountain not long ago.
After the pleasantries, Qin Yuchen and Zhang Qiling walked slowly down the mountain. After a few steps, they tacitly went into the bushes.
As soon as he left, the sound of gunfire in the woods startled a flock of birds.
"We finally found his whereabouts, don't let him go!"
Qin Yuchen dodged behind a tree to avoid the sight of those searching for him, and heard one of the people in the group say this.
He glanced at Zhang Qiling beside him and whispered, "Go separately."
“…” Zhang Qiling was silent for a moment.
The best way is to go separately. The target is small, which can distract some attention and make it easier to escape.
But... this group of people's target is Qin Yuchen. Will they really split into two groups to chase them?
"It's okay, you go around the back and we'll surround them." Qin Yuchen blinked and gave Zhang Qiling some advice.
Zhang Qiling sighed, nodded, and threw a stone to the side.
He listened to the footsteps of those people approaching, did a somersault to attract a group of people's attention, and ran in the other direction.
"He's still behind the tree. There's no need to chase that guy."
Qin Yuchen secretly bit his tongue, and sighed with regret that the people who came this time had become smarter. Then he randomly found a way to run in the opposite direction.
Several figures were moving quickly back and forth in the woods, startling the flying birds.
"Damn, why does he look like a loach!"
"Send out in two groups and surround him from the inside!"
With a complaint and a command, the person who arranged it was a little furious, and even the voice of the person talking was a lot louder.
"Also, be careful of that person who ran away coming back to attack you!"
"Cough cough cough-"
Qin Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief and took some potion from 007 to restore his strength. He choked and tears came to his eyes when he drank it.
"What's that weird smell of yours?"
[I don't know. I've never tried this either.] 007 held up a small glass bottle of green liquid, shook it gently, then opened it and put it to his nose for a sniff.
It didn't smell anything and had no intention of trying it, so it had no idea how it was made.
"Master, they're surrounding us. Let's run southwest. There's a long, abandoned mine there." 007 pointed the way to Qin Yuchen.
"Okay, remember to tell Zhang Qiling." Qin Yuchen immediately changed direction.
007: [I’ve already contacted them.]
"How did this group of people find me?" Qin Yuchen changed from running to sliding and slid directly down the slope.
"That calculation unit worked so hard to figure it out, so they sent people here right away after hearing about you." 007 pouted as he looked at the child absorbing energy.
"..." Tan Yuchen sneered, "You really put so much effort into it?"
The pursuit behind him never stopped, and Qin Yuchen did not dare to relax, and kept running towards the mine tunnel that 007 mentioned.
This group of people were extremely alert, and since it was broad daylight, the view in the forest was very wide, so there was no chance of a sneak attack.
He had no choice but to use the mine as a breakthrough point, otherwise he would have to fight them until dark.
While Qin Yuchen was avoiding the pursuit, he was also looking for an opportunity to shoot at the group of people, but it was of little use.
He would always be outgunned.
