The sun was warm and the time was tranquil. Walking on the mountain path, the gentle wind blew away the summer heat. Birds chirped as they sang. Coupled with the unique fragrance of the flowers on the path, they were incomparably comfortable.
It had already been a while since the incident with the Nangong family. Fan Mu and the other two went back to their normal state and continued to head towards Ming Chen Academy, perhaps afraid that the Nangong family would catch up with them.
As the saying went, the more comfortable the environment, the more it would stimulate a person's ability to be bored. Since Fan Mu had nothing to do, he thought of a strange question, "Susu, I've found that your element is the most useful among the three of us."
"Uh, why do you say that?" Susu turned around and looked at Fan Mu. After working together for so many days, fighting to the death, and so on, their relationship became more harmonious and they understood each other better. They didn't even need to use their own mind reading techniques, and as soon as Fan Mu said the first half of his sentence, Susu had already guessed what Fan Mu was going to say.
Look, Lingyun and I, one is wood, the other is water, first at sea, and now we are in the forest on the mountainside, in the end, this really doesn't have much use, "sighed Fan Mu. According to his previous assumption, while travelling, he originally thought he could use his own wood element to condense some firewood, but look around, it's just like everywhere else, he doesn't even need to look for Lingyun's water. After looking around for a moment, he continued," But your fire, not only can be used for lighting, but it can also be used to heat and eat roasted fish. "
Ugh ?" Although she had guessed that Fan Mu would say something like this, Susu's expression still changed. Ever since she had ordered her fire element to roast some fish for their betterment, she was teased by Fan Mu until now. She turned her head in a flustered rage and cast a fierce glance at him, saying in a slightly trembling voice, "If there's a next time ?
When Fan Mu saw Susu's dark face, he thought she was really angry. However, he didn't understand what a girl was thinking, so he quickly stopped and said with a smile that was not a smile, "I don't dare, I don't dare."
"If there's a next time, I'll roast something else for you," Susu Yufeng turned around and smiled.
"Ugh ?" When Fan Mu heard this, he was slightly surprised. He still remembered when he had teased Susu in the beginning, and she had even stomped her feet in embarrassment. But now, she had learned how to tease back? He swallowed his saliva, looked at Ling Yun who wanted to laugh but did not dare to, and muttered: "Keep laughing!"
"Ah ?" Lingyun saw Fan Mu rushing towards him and quickly dodged. Damn it, if his perception had not improved by a level, he would have been entangled by Fan Mu.
"Haha," Susu laughed as she saw Fan Mu and Lingyun in the forest chasing each other. Thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel glad that she was a girl. Otherwise, she would be the one being chased, but ? She was really envious of Lingyun and Fan Mu, just like Fan Qing and Xu Tiangou. They were both best brothers, and she ? In the end, she was still a girl. Often, she was always being protected, even if her strength could be said to be the strongest amongst the three of them. These idiots ? She sniffed and adjusted her state of mind. Then, she quickly chased after him. "Wait a minute."
Laughing, the three of them arrived at a small town just before the sun set.
"Ah, we can finally sleep comfortably on the bed again," Su Su lazily said as she entered the town and looked at the bustling crowd.
"Uh, it's as if you didn't sleep on the bed one day," Fan Mu's mouth twitched as he said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "However, this place does seem to be very prosperous."
"En," Lingyun looked around. Along the way, aside from Huai City which could be considered a big city, the rest of the roads were either desolate little towns, or there was an endless mountain forest and lake. It was rare to see such a bustling little town.
"Ling City?"
"..."
"Hmm?" Fan Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at the words on the city wall as well. In one breath, he said, "Good writing, eh?" Ling Yun, isn't this your city? "
"Pa," Lingyun glanced at Fan Mu, then patted his shoulder heavily. He looked at Fan Mu with a serious expression, "You discovered me."
"You!" Fan Mu stared blankly at Lingyun. Wasn't this guy very calm? Since when did he say such things? Looking at Susu standing at the side, Fan Mu thought for a while. It seemed that everyone had changed a lot along the way. Or rather, their relationship was getting better and better, so they were all exposed. Fan Mu could not help but complain in his heart.
"This big brother, has something big happened in your town recently?" Walking on the street, Lingyun looked around, as if he was very prosperous, and the prosperity was not so right. Listening to conversations from all directions, with all kinds of accents, he walked in front of a stall, and under the guise of buying things, asked the stall owner.
"Little lady, this looks good, it suits you," The stall owner was a man in his forties with a simple and honest face. Seeing that Susu was fiddling with a bracelet on his stall, he laughed.
"That's right," Lingyun nodded and looked at Fan Mu, who chose the bracelet. "Yes, that's right." Lingyun nodded and looked at Fan Mu, who chose the bracelet, and said, "The two of us are bringing our sister out for a tour.
"Of course," the stall owner laughed, and after seeing the other girls leaning over to look at their jewelry, he turned around and said, "Although our town is normally more prosperous than the other surrounding towns, there aren't that many people around. In three days, our town will have a Dragon Flame Competition, and the scale is really big, it's said that the first place will receive a mysterious grand prize!"
"Dragon Flame Competition? What is this? " Fan Mu asked, puzzled. Looking at the bustling market, he felt a little more interested.
"Oh? Sorry about that, I forgot that you guys are from outside the city, the Dragonflame competition is a competition held to prevent the production of equipment, which is held once every three years by a wealthy businessman, so, every time at this time, hawkers like us are the happiest, "the booth owner joked, seeing the three of them react and realize that they were trying to change the topic the last time, he quickly changed the topic," Since the final reward is for public sale, a lot of people here probably also came for this. "
"I see." Lingyun nodded and exchanged a look with Fan Mu. They understood each other.
The two left the stall in whispers, leaving Susu behind.
"Thank you, boss. Here." Susu smiled but didn't blame them. These two guys were just like that when they were thinking about something. They took out a silver from their waists and handed it to the stall owner before leaving with them.
