Chapter 299
It was not that they were afraid of any danger in the wasteland, but they simply felt that it would be useless if they went there. If even Chen Jing encountered an enemy that he could not deal with, they would both die.
"It's not that dangerous." Chen Jing repeated Qiao Youning's words, and he didn't mean to lie to the old man. "Going there to collect herbs is almost like an outing. My strength is enough. If I encounter other dangers on the road, I'll just hide away." Go to deep space.”
"Is it really similar to an outing?" Chen Boxu was still worried.
"Anyway, my friend said there is no risk in going to collect herbs. It's just that the way up the mountain is a bit difficult to find. The polluted plants nearby have been cleaned up by the temple a long time ago." Chen Jing explained.
It's okay that Chen Jing didn't mention the temple. When he heard him mention the temple, Chen Bofu frowned even more, because he had dealt with those monks and knew very well how troublesome those silent monks were.
Although the temple has recently revealed that it is not interested in deep space resuscitators, there is a chance that they may change their mind at short notice...
"Is it similar to an outing?" Wei Nan sat aside with his eyes wide open and raised his hands excitedly, "I want to go play with you!"
"...We are doing business, just having fun." Chen Jing rolled his eyes at her.
"I also want to take a look..." Yan Que said calmly.
After being promoted to Sequence 5, her strength was on par with Lawrence.
In other words, there really was no one in the walled city whose sequence level could surpass hers, so her request to follow him was based on wanting to help, rather than just having fun like the stupid goose Weinan.
"Since you said it's not dangerous anymore, let them follow." Chen Bofu looked at Chen Jing suspiciously, "You don't dare, right?"
"……Fine."
Chen Jing sighed helplessly. He could also see that the old man was testing him. If he dared to say no, he might be worried.
"I won't join in the fun this time." Chen Bofu sat on the sofa and rubbed his shoulders, with an unhappy look on his face. "I've been very tired these past few days. I don't know if the backlash was too severe. My strength is... Still declining..."
"Then you can just stay in the walled city."
Chen Jing said, glanced at Hassad and Lawrence again, and began to calculate the security of the rear area of the walled city.
"Before I leave, I will leave Yagertos and Baiage behind, and also leave a copy of the 'seeds' of the Deep Space Brilliance. If anyone wants to take advantage of my absence to attack the city, they can do it if they come forward." Stay, not to mention that with Bai Aji here, you can run away if you want."
Hearing what Chen Jing said, the old man was completely relieved, because he could tell that Chen Jing really didn't intend to go out and take risks. Compared with the risks outside, Chen Jing was more worried about this rear base camp.
"When will you set off?" Chen Boxu asked.
Chen Jing glanced at the clock on the wall and calculated the time he had agreed with Qiao Youning.
"About noon in seven days."
Chapter 387: Best Friends from Two Worlds·First Meeting (Part 1)
Living with the old man and the others in the other world, Chen Jing felt that time would always fly by.
Seven days flew by.
Every day seemed to go by without doing anything.
This situation made him a little uneasy. After all, other candidates were working hard every day. They were either busy completing the newly refreshed additional questions, trying to find ways to be promoted, or participating in the overt and covert fights within the sect and major forces. …
There are indeed very few people like him who are salty fish.
Everyday life is also about three o'clock and one line.
Eat, sleep, and play games.
In addition to playing handheld games, I also play 3A masterpieces on computers.
I have to say that Hanging City Technology is really a versatile reason.
When Chen Jing moved out the equipped desktop computer, even Hassad couldn't help but sigh that the Hanging City was really in a state of decline. He didn't expect that in this era of extremely developed civilian computers, such backward gaming tools would appear... …
Chen Jing had heard about the technological development of the Hanging City for a long time. Later, he could see from Li Mobai and the others just how advanced the Hanging City was. It is said that the games played there directly use brain-computer uploading of consciousness. This method allows players to enter the virtual game world, and the sense of immersion is ridiculously strong.
But even so.
When hearing Hassad complaining about his precious computer, Chen Jing was still a little unhappy... This is also the crystallization of technology! Isn't it just a little bit behind? What a bull!
certainly.
For "country folk" like Wei Nan and Yan Que who had never been to Hanging City, the AAA masterpiece installed on Chen Jing's computer was enough to shock them.
From the day Chen Jing took them to play games, to the time they set off for the wasteland, they were both still stuck in front of the computer, just like those Internet-addicted girls in the outside world.
It is precisely because of this.
Chen Jing originally planned to seduce them with computers and ask them to stay in the walled city and play games instead of running around with him... But it turned out that going out for an outing was also ridiculously tempting to them.
Just like the day we set out.
They hadn't turned on the computer since they woke up. They packed their luggage and knocked on Chen Jing's door, urging him to eat quickly and leave early.
In the end, Chen Jing used Qiao Youning as a cover, saying that he had already agreed on a time with his friends, and then he had the opportunity to crawl back and take a nap.
Afternoon.
Chen Bofu and others sent Chen Jing and his party to the rooftop.
When Chen Jing determined the coordinates, the old man was still nagging them to be more careful when going out. Although the wasteland next to the temple had been cleaned up and there were no troublesome pollutants, but from a certain From a perspective, monks are much more dangerous than polluters...
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Chen Jing, who was wearing a yellow robe, stood on the edge of the rooftop, comforting the worried old man while summoning Baiage and Yagetos from the deep space.
Since Chen Jing had greeted them beforehand, they knew they were about to start work as soon as they left deep space.
Baiage slowly flapped his wings and flew high into the sky and began to circle on guard, while Yegetos jumped down from the edge of the rooftop with a colorful "seed" in the deep sky, preparing to plant it in the basement of the walled city.
"Are you sure you don't want Bai Aji to take you there?" Chen Bofu raised his head and looked at the terrifying giant beast that was constantly hovering in the sky. It seemed that he had subconsciously regarded Bai Aji as a long-distance means of transportation.
"I'll just take Wei Nan and the others there. It won't be a problem if they fly slower. Let's go!"
After saying that, Chen Jing's body suddenly dispersed, like a piece of golden light mist that could not be dissipated, instantly sweeping Wei Nan and Yan Que into it, and then turned them into a golden stream of light that shot straight into the sky.
…
"Are you sure we won't fall?"
"Um."
"Why is half of my body hanging outside?"
"It's very safe, don't worry!"
"Are you sure it's safe to dump me like a drum washing machine?"
"..."
This is the first time that Chen Jing has taken others to fly in the air, using those golden mist-like energy to bring Wei Nan and the others up to the sky. Logically speaking, it should be a very easy thing... But the facts prove that Chen Jing is not in reality. It's as simple as you think.
At least the ride isn't great.
Wei Nan gave him a negative review within half a minute of his arrival.
I don't know if the light mist was too unstable. When it took Wei Nan up to the sky, half of her body was exposed. When the strong wind blew in her face, she started to spin like a hot wheel.
In the end, Yan Que quickly pulled her back with quick eyes and hands.
The two of them were squatting in this mist, as if they were squatting in a pit. They didn't even have the courage to raise their heads, for fear of accidentally exposing their heads.
"I kind of want to worship Aji." Yan Que whispered, squatting pitifully and not daring to move.
Wei Nan was so angry that he didn't say a word. He was just ready to take action when he arrived at the destination. No matter what, he had to beat Chen Jing to calm down.
Because this light mist was translucent, the two of them really didn't feel safe at all when squatting in the light mist. When they lowered their heads, they saw that they were thousands of feet high and even the white clouds were below their feet.
Now Chen Jing has no choice.
Bai Aji stayed in the walled city to protect the rear.
If he takes people outside his family during deep space jumps... To be honest, Chen Jing is really afraid that they will cause any sequelae, so after thinking about it, he can only fly like this.
"Oh, I told you not to come..."
Chen Jing couldn't help but complain, because taking Wei Nan and the others was an attempt. Even at first, he didn't think he could take Wei Nan and the others into the sky, so he couldn't say how happy he was when he successfully took off.
As for the riding experience...that's not something Chen Jing needs to consider. He thinks it's good if he can successfully bring them to their destination.
"I suddenly thought of a question." Wei Nan squatted in a slightly embarrassed manner, looking at the golden mist surrounding her strangely, "Since you have deconstructed your body and turned it into this mist...isn't that right? It can be said that they are part of your body?"
"Probably so." Chen Jing said uncertainly.
"Then we are in your belly?" Wei Nan said with disgust, "Hey, it sounds a bit disgusting to say that."
"..." Chen Jing didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Wei Nan punched out fiercely, as if seeking revenge for being thrown around like a hot wheel before, and cursed fiercely.
"I'll knock off your waist!"
At this moment, Yan Que's sharp eyes saw a man wearing monk's plain clothes standing on the hills not far away.
"We should enter the temple grounds..." Yanque reminded, "There is a monk standing there!"
As soon as Yan Que finished saying this, he felt that Chen Jing was declining rapidly.
"Three hours... It seems that my manned flight speed is still not as fast as Bai Aji..."
Chen Jing sighed in disappointment, and continued to accelerate with the Weinan Yanque, turning into a golden stream of light and flying towards the hills.
"What the hell are you doing there!" Wei Nan was stunned. In her impression, monks were not good people. Meeting such nagging gods in the wasteland was usually not a good sign.
"That's my friend."
Chen Jing explained helplessly, and saw that Qiao Youning, who was standing on the hill, had already begun to wave to him, as if he recognized at a glance who this piece of golden light passing across the sky like a comet was.
"Is your friend a monk?" Wei Nan was stunned.
Chen Jing hummed and began to slow down his descent.
"I'll introduce you to you later."
Chapter 388: Friends from two worlds meet for the first time (Part 2)
Compared with Chen Bofu, who was careful about everything, Wei Nan and Yan Que did not ask Chen Jing's friend who he was. They only knew that he was a "capable man" who could find a cure for the old lunatic in the wasteland. The panacea...
When Chen Jing took them to the ground, Wei Nan and Yan Que were looking at each other intently.
Yan Que had some sense of etiquette and knew that it was impolite to stare at others all the time. After a few glances, he would look away. But Wei Nan was really looking at him... like a naughty child lying in front of a museum display case, staring at him with his eyes wide open.
"This is the friend I told you about."
Chen Jing walked forward and couldn't help but smile when he saw this familiar face.
"Her name is Qiao Youning, she is older than you, and now she is a monk in the [Great Buddha Mother Temple]... Oh no, she is a saint, right?"
"Almost." Qiao Youning smiled and looked at Wei Nan and Yan Que, with a generous smile on her gentle face, "I have heard Ah Jing talk about you many times, Wei Nan, Yan Que, I am very happy to meet you!"
"Hello." Yan Que was still a man of few words, and looked at Qiao Youning calmly.
"Hello, hello..." Wei Nan said politely while walking around Qiao Youning twice, looking at her from head to toe for a long time.
In fact, Wei Nan and Yan Que both felt a little strange, including the old man Chen Bofu... Before, when Chen Jing mentioned that he had a friend, they all felt incredible.
Because they were too familiar with Chen Jing.
How could a young master like Chen Jing, who had been in Yongye City since he was a child, have a friend far away in the Far North? And how did they usually contact each other?
Not long after the old man got into trouble here, his friend over there sent a message saying that there was a medicine that could cure his illness...
So.
Chen Bofu and the others have never figured out who this friend Chen Jing mentioned is?
"That kid won't be fooled by others." Chen Bofu often muttered this behind his back. If it weren't for Chen Jing's strength, he would probably never let Chen Jing run so far to meet his friends.
...
Chen Jing and the others were on a hill outside a mountain range, surrounded by weeds and wild flowers with strange fragrance. Compared with other places in the wasteland, this place has a bit of a paradise.
"How did you get to know Ah Jing?" Wei Nan was not afraid of strangers. He stood beside Qiao Youning, folding his arms and looking very relaxed.
"When I was in school." Qiao Youning glanced at Chen Jing, and seeing the other party showing an approving look, he couldn't help laughing. Telling such a truth shouldn't be considered a lie, right?
"You also went to school in Yongye City?" Wei Nan was stunned, and his simple brain circuit suddenly became clear, and his eyes became undoubting, "No wonder you can know each other from such a distance..."
Although Yan Que didn't say anything, when he heard Qiao Youning's explanation, he obviously didn't believe it, and the suspicion in his eyes flashed... But when he saw Chen Jing's smiling face again, he immediately didn't plan to ask any more questions.
