Chapter 543 Blindfold
Zhuge Yun and the others all thought of the same place at the same time.
My heart couldn't help but beat slightly faster.
……
The performance of the three people made Xiao Xiao laugh.
However, before he figured out the nine-tailed fox's attitude towards humans, he did not want to tell Zhang Bo and the others about the existence of this monster, so as not to bring them unpredictable trouble or danger.
……
Moreover, Xiao Xiao frowned slightly. He could understand Zhang Bo and others' great interest and enthusiasm in monsters. However, it was not a good thing for ordinary people who could not see monsters to be obsessed with establishing a bond with them.
He thought that Zhang Bo, Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng probably needed some time to calm down their overly excited mood due to the real existence of monsters.
For now, it would be better to keep them away from monster matters.
Especially stay away from powerful monsters whose enemies and friends are unknown.
……
"No."
Xiao Xiao shook his head, then raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Why, do you think I saw something?"
Fortunately, he was the last one just now, so Zhang Bo and the other two who had their backs to him did not see the change in his expression.
His loss of composure only lasted for a short time. When Zhuge Yun turned around and called him, although he was still in a daze, the initial surprise and astonishment had almost disappeared from his eyes.
……
"No?"
The unexpected answer made Zhang Bo and others shout out in unison.
"Really do not have?"
Zhuge Yun looked at Xiao Xiao suspiciously, "Then why were you in a daze just now?"
"I just got distracted."
Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly, "Don't you think the scenery here is pretty good?"
"What's so good about it? It's just a cliff."
Zhang Bo said meaningfully.
In response, Xiao Xiao shrugged and did not make any excuses.
……
"Third brother, are you really just distracted?"
Zhao Luzheng asked without giving up, staring at Xiao Xiao without blinking.
"Yes."
Xiao Xiao spread his hands and said jokingly: "Why? Don't I even have the right to be distracted?"
……
Zhang Bo, Zhuge Yun and Zhao Lu were looking towards the cliff again, their eyes wide open, trying to see something, but their eyes were so sore that tears were about to come out, and they still found nothing.
They also knew that if there really were monsters, they would not be able to find them.
They just felt unwilling to accept it. They knew that monsters really existed in the world, but they couldn't see them. They couldn't be more upset.
……
Zhuge Yun even ran to the edge of the cliff, looked left and right, and stretched his neck to look down.
Seeing Zhuge Yun's actions, Zhang Bo and Zhao Luzheng also came to his side and looked down with him.
……
Uh, do they really think they are standing on the edge of a cliff?
After a moment of surprise, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but smile.
Because in his opinion, Zhang Bo and his companions did not reach the edge of the cliff at all, but stopped in front of the small building, leaning forward and looking at the ground under their feet.
He looked like he was exploring seriously, which seemed a bit weird and funny.
……
Is this the legendary...sleight of hand?
Xiao Xiao pinched his chin, a light flashed in his eyes, and an expression on his face revealed some interest, but it disappeared in a flash.
No matter how fantastic the description in the book is, it is not as magical and shocking as seeing it with your own eyes.
How on earth is this done?
……
"The third child."
Zhuge Yun suddenly shouted.
"Ok?"
Xiao Xiao walked over.
"Help me up." Zhuge Yun reached out and grabbed Xiao Xiao's clothes, "I feel a little dizzy looking at you."
In front of me was the dark bottom of the cliff that I had seen before, of unknown depth.
……
"Is it because your legs are weak?"
Zhang Bo slowly stood up and carefully took a few steps back.
I didn't feel anything when I looked down before, but the dizziness as soon as I looked up made me feel a little nervous.
Despite this, Zhang Bo did not miss the opportunity to "attack" Zhuge Yun.
……
Zhao Luzheng glanced speechlessly at Zhang Bo's rather "fearful" movements.
These two guys are exactly the same, right?
But, actually, he is pretty much the same.
When I was looking, I was so busy looking for anything unusual that I didn't notice that I was so close to the edge of the cliff.
"Wow~"
When he moved his feet, debris fell to the ground with a rustling sound. His heart skipped a beat and his whole body froze.
……
Xiao Xiao tried hard to restrain the strange expression on his face.
However, seeing Zhang Bo and the other two being so cautious and even treading on thin ice on flat ground was really funny and absurd.
How would they feel if they knew that what they thought they were on the edge of the cliff was just an illusion?
Thinking of their expressions, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but smile.
……
Xiao Xiao supported Zhuge Yun and took a few steps back.
After realizing that he had maintained a safe distance from the edge of the cliff, Zhuge Yun slowly breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously loosened his hands that were tightly holding Xiao Xiao's clothes.
Seeing the wrinkles on Xiao Xiao's clothes, Zhuge Yun smiled awkwardly and reached out to press the wrinkles to reduce them.
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows and said nothing. He reached out and pulled Zhao Luzheng back.
He was a little curious about what they saw. Wasn't it just the edge of the cliff?
Or, "Eldest, second oldest, youngest, are you all afraid of heights?"
Xiao Xiao guessed that he hadn't noticed it when he was climbing the mountain before.
……
"No."
Zhang Bo, Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng said in unison.
"Oh?"
Xiao Xiao looked at them with a smile, as if he was not smiling. The performance of these guys just now did not indicate that this was the case.
……
The three of them looked at each other, and they all knew that their previous appearance was simply embarrassing.
Looking back now, they really wish that time could go back. It’s not that they would be more calm and composed on the edge of the cliff, but that they should not have walked this path to reach this cliff in the first place!
Not to mention it being a fortuitous encounter, I just lost face for nothing.
Although they are all good brothers, and except Xiao Xiao, everyone is the same and no one can laugh at anyone else.
However, even if they comforted themselves in this way, the awkwardness in their hearts still could not be eliminated for a while.
……
"cough."
Zhang Bo cleared his throat and shook his head to get rid of some of the discomfort and embarrassment. Why had he been doing so many stupid things during this period of time?
He was almost speechless because of the little dignity he had left of his elder brother.
"Let's get out of here."
Zhuge Yun pretended not to notice the teasing in Xiao Xiao's eyes and changed the subject naturally, "We don't have much free time left, let's go somewhere else."
"Yeah, it's almost time for dinner, so we should gather then."
Zhao Luzheng echoed.
……
Xiao Xiao shrugged, indicating that he had no objection.
"Then let's go."
