The next day, early in the morning.
After the spring rain, especially after the thunderstorm, everything seems to be revived again. The original leaves are even more green, and the newly picked buds, hung with crystal clear water droplets, are even more delicate. The flowers are blooming even more, their delicate beauty attracts flying insects, and the sound of birds echoes in the sky.
room for two...
"Squeak..."
At this moment, it opened at almost the same time! The two who came out of the room after simply washing and dressing, fell into a brief look at each other.
"you……"
Lan Feng was the first to speak.
Lan Xue was startled, Lan Feng took the initiative to speak, she was a little nervous, and instantly thought of what happened last night. But before he had time to associate much, Lan Feng spoke again.
"Why are you still dressed like this?" Lan Feng looked at Lan Xue suspiciously.
Lan Xue, she was still dressed casually yesterday, but today she is likely to kill monsters, so she won't be able to change her clothes outside.
"Ah! I'm sorry, I... I made a mistake, I'll go in and change!" Lan Xue panicked, like a fertilized kitten, and rushed back to the room.
"Bang." The door closed.
Lan Feng leaned against the corridor indifferently, waiting patiently with his arms crossed and his head lowered. The usual indifference, as if nothing had happened.
Lan Xue's panicked "voice" came from the room. It was the sound of knocking something down, and it sounded like a stool that knocked down...
The system changed, even if it was all taken off, and then the process of putting it all on, Lan Xue abruptly extended it to five minutes in less than half a minute. I really don’t know what she was doing during this period.
"Squeak." The door opened again.
"Okay." Lan Xue said embarrassedly, knowing that it took too long.
This time it was Lan Xue who walked out, fully armed. Wearing the swordsman's light armor, she can be said to be valiant, but Lan Feng always felt that something was wrong.
The whole body is covered with light golden yellow armor, the long sword hangs on the waist, and there is a small arm shield equipped with a swordsman on the left arm... Above the beautiful cheeks, the hair is well combed and meticulously organized...
Lan Feng finally found out what was wrong. It turned out that Lan Xue was not wearing a helmet at all.
Just as Lan Xue was about to say something at this moment, Lan Feng was the first to speak again.
"Let's go, have breakfast first, and then look for the clues to the mission." After that, he turned and left, leading the way in front.
There was no chance for Lan Xue to speak.
Looking at the back of Lan Feng walking in front, Lan Xue was stunned for a moment, and then she thought a little disappointedly: "Did he hate me because of what happened last night...?"
...
The following two people walked all over the town to ask for clues, even if it was an old grandfather in a small alley, Lan Feng specially went to ask. Very positive look, feeling very eager to complete the task.
The process of these inquiries should have been enquired by the lively and active Lan Xue, and then the lazy Lan Feng should have asked passersby one after another, or just drank a drink and watched.
However, Lan Feng... was uncharacteristically.
"Excuse me, do you know the legends and rumors about music in the Bumingu Valley?" Lan Feng stopped an uncle who was picking firewood.
Although he still had that indifferent expression when he asked the question, his polite tone didn't cause much trouble to the questioning process. And Lan Xue was also asking about an aunt who was selling fruit.
Lan Xue was the first to end the inquiry, and then looked at Lan Feng.
Looking at Lan Feng's active inquiries, Lan Xue felt a little uneasy, and she didn't know what the reason was. I just feel that Lan Feng is now actively trying to complete the task, and it seems that there is something hidden.
She also knew that Lan Feng was lazy, really lazy, and sometimes even so lazy that she didn't want to talk.
But at this moment, Lan Feng is showing positivity, and the number of NPCs inquired is no less than hers. It's not that you want to find the so-called treasure quickly, or that you want to get the joy of finding the treasure.
It's just... the appearance of wanting to complete the mission.
"Hooligans."
Lan Xue tried to call Lan Feng, who had just finished asking the uncle who was picking firewood.
"Huh?" Lan Feng turned back.
"That..." Lan Xue suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Do you want to talk about what happened last night? I just remembered it too. I didn't know that last night that idiot took the pillow from the room, so I could only use the clothes as a pillow." Lan Feng said suddenly and indifferently.
"Eh? Pillow?" Lan Xue suddenly fell into a cute state, unable to react for a while.
"Well, I'm sorry, I... I didn't mean to." Lan Xue immediately blushed in embarrassment.
She finally remembered that last night, because she was afraid, she knocked on Lan Feng's door with her pillow in her arms, and finally went to sleep directly with her pillow in her arms.
When she woke up this morning, she was still wondering why there were two pillows on Lan Feng's bed.
"I know, from the way you usually look like an idiot, you know that you didn't do it on purpose." Lan Feng said lightly.
"Where am I stupid? I was just scared last night!" Lan Xue defended immediately.
"Who knows?" Lan Feng left a look that I didn't believe, and went to look for the next target to ask.
He stayed where he was, staring at Lan Feng's Lan Xue with his cheeks bulging.
"Humph!" An angry Lan Xue, puffing her cheeks, also went to ask another target.
The corner of Lan Feng's eyes, however, has been paying attention to Lan Xue's every move. When she saw her questioning a passing NPC again, Lan Feng withdrew his vision and focused on the NPC in front of him.
"Have you been noticed..." This was Lan Feng's last thought when he took back his peripheral vision.
The reason why he brought up the issue of the pillow last night and deliberately said that Lan Xue was an idiot was just to divert Lan Xue's attention. And now the diversion of attention has succeeded.
If he originally accepted the mission with Lan Xue, in addition to completing Jingjing's mission, part of it was because of his own interest. Because he himself, really wants to try to do a real treasure hunt, a treasure hunt that relies entirely on him or them to find clues.
So now...
He just regarded it as a task, a task that he wanted to complete quickly, and after completing the task, he left quickly.
...
After a busy half of the morning...
The two of them still did not ask for any clues related to music. And this small town outside the valley has never had any legends related to music. Including Blooming Valley itself, there is no story about music.
The only piece of news I got is that besides the town here, there is a small village near the mouth of the valley. However, the village there is very small, and basically few people come to this town, so many people ignore the existence there.
It is equivalent to a small village isolated from the world.
"Little rascal, shall we go to that small village now?" Lan Xue asked excitedly.
After inquiring for a long time, I finally got some news. Although it was not related to the mission, this small village that they didn't know about when they came, always felt that it might be the key to the clue.
"Well, let's go over now, but it's a bit of a journey, and the road is not easy to walk."
Lan Feng asked about this news, and he just told Lan Xue.
On the side of Blooming Valley, this small town outside the valley has a really good environment. There is a sea of flowers that only bloom in spring, and a small lake that is clear and beautiful. But people here rarely go to Blooming Valley.
There is only one road leading to Blooming Valley, and it is a rugged mountain road. This is also one of the reasons why people from the small town near the mouth of the Buming Valley do not come to the small town outside the valley.
Two places, without good roads, naturally there will be no good communication. So that when they came, they didn't get any news of the small village, as if they were isolated from the world.
"It doesn't matter, that's how treasure hunting is supposed to be fun, let's go!" Lan Xue looked very happy, and walked to the front.
Lan Feng was behind and followed silently.
In the end, after asking NPCs all the way, they finally found the path.
It was a muddy path opened up in the forest. Because of the rain just last night, the path was full of mud and slippery. With the surrounding trees and dwarf bushes, it looks a little eerie.
But since the trail was full of mud and not overgrown with weeds, at least it proved that people were still using it.
"Little hooligan, are we really going to take this path?" Lan Xue was a little scared. She always felt that the path submerged between the bushes and trees was very eerie and scary.
"Aren't you very happy just now?" Lan Feng glanced lightly.
"Hmm... Who knew Xiaolu was like this." Lan Xue blushed suddenly.
"Let's go, I'll go ahead. If you're afraid, hold on to the corner of my windbreaker, just to prevent the clothes from splashing in the mud." Lan Feng said lightly, and walked towards the path.
Lan Xue gritted her teeth, and finally followed, and pulled the corner of Lan Feng's windbreaker as Lan Feng said.
Lan Feng, who opened the way ahead, also called out his own weapon and took it in his hand. In addition to overcoming thorns and thorns, it also prevents monsters that may appear at any time. Although I know that this is the path that NPCs usually take, it is unlikely that wild monsters will appear, but it is still better to be careful.
After all, the current Lan Feng is not alone, everything can be indifferent.
Lan Xue pulled the corner of Lan Feng's clothes from behind, looked at his back, and suddenly remembered what she had noticed before. Lan Feng, who was actively doing tasks and taking the initiative to lead the way through thorns and thorns, did not bring her the warmth of being protected for some reason.
Instead... I feel more alienated from her.
"It feels like the little hooligan now... just like the bodyguard who protects me on my mission... so strange..."
Lan Xue's eyes were blurred, looking at Lan Feng's back, she was a little stunned.
