Chapter 726 Lao Deng
Chapter 726 Lao Deng
When Yan Fei heard Paimeng's question, she remembered that Paimeng didn't know Ye Lan yet, and then she introduced Ye Lan to Paimeng.
"This is Ye Lan, from Liyue... well, should I say you work for the General Affairs Department? Anyway, you're a friend of mine."
After hearing this, Ye Lan nodded slightly, then turned her gaze to the three people.
"Of course. It just so happens that I've been in this area lately, and I think it's a small coincidence that we meet. The Traveler and Paimon may not know me, but I have heard of you. As for the person next to you, I've met him a few times."
Ye Lan's gaze lingered on Lin Feng for a moment, with a hint of scrutiny in her eyes.
After listening to Ye Lan's words, Kong felt a surge of pride in his success. "Excuse me, I have too many friends in Liyue..."
Kong smiled and scratched his head. It seemed that having too many friends was not a good thing.
After Kong finished speaking, his expression suddenly became a little serious, and when he spoke again, his tone was full of apology.
"You guys are here to do business, and my job is to monitor the Strata Rock Abyss. According to the regulations, I should accompany you. But this time I have other important matters, and I'm afraid I won't be able to follow you all the way. You guys can do it yourself, don't make any trouble. Just any big move."
There was a hint of regret in Kong's eyes. He really wanted to accompany everyone to explore the Layered Abyss, but due to his duties, he had to deal with other important matters first.
After hearing what Ye Lan said, Yan Fei immediately wilted. She pulled Ye Lan's arm and said coquettishly, "Oh no, I was just thinking of asking you for help... For the sake of our past friendship, could you spare a moment to help me with this will?"
Yan Fei's eyes were full of anticipation. She knew Ye Lan's abilities very well. With Ye Lan's help, the matter of the will would definitely be accomplished with half the effort.
After hearing what Yan Fei said, Ye Lan gently patted her hand away, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, with a hint of teasing in her eyes, "If you beg me, you have to be sincere."
Ye Lan's personality has always been like this. She likes to tease her friends, but in her heart she actually values this friendship very much.
After hearing what Ye Lan said, Yan Fei smiled helplessly, then took out a small bag of tea from her bag, waved it in front of Ye Lan, and said, "No problem, you have to pay for the tour guide. It just so happens that Grandma Ping gave me some good tea. If you don't mind, let me buy you a cup of tea."
Ye Lan chuckled a few times when she heard this. The laughter seemed particularly cold and quiet in the silent atmosphere. She looked at Yan Fei speechlessly, "Haha, why don't you tell me the details of your visit here first, then I..."
However, before he could finish his words, a dull rumbling sound suddenly came from a distance, like thunder rolling in from the horizon, breaking the original tranquility.
Along with it came gusts of wind, howling with a sharp sound, as if it were a roar from the abyss, or a low hum of some unknown fear.
The sudden movement made the five people stunned for a moment, and they all looked in the direction where the sound came from, with confusion and vigilance in everyone's eyes.
"What's going on?" Paimon's voice rose unconsciously, filled with obvious fear. She clung to Sora's side, her hands tightly grasping the corners of Sora's clothes.
Logically speaking, such a loud noise shouldn't happen in this place, but what is happening now?
"There may be some accident. Let's go over and take a look." Lin Feng urged anxiously when he saw this.
He secretly groaned in his heart, there was nothing he could do, he had to give face to the shrewd Zhongli.
If these people were allowed to rashly go to that dangerous place, judging from the current situation, Xiao would definitely die no matter what, unless Zhongli, the old man, came to his aid.
But the problem is that he has already carefully planned his fake death and it would be difficult for him to take action at this time.
Besides, this plan was originally proposed by himself. Zhongli’s meaning is very clear. Either you help me solve the problem, or you help me solve it. There is no second choice at all.
As the proposer of the plan, I have to bear some responsibility for after-sales protection no matter what.
After hearing Lin Feng's words, Ye Lan nodded in agreement without any hesitation.
She knew that with such a big commotion, there must be considerable danger hidden behind it, and she might not be able to handle it alone.
More people means more strength, and more helpers will make it easier to deal with the situation.
Then the five of them hurried towards the place where the sound came from.
Along the way, the surrounding environment became increasingly eerie and strange.
In the darkness, strange noises could be heard from time to time, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them in the dark.
The further Lin Feng walked, the more he felt that the abyss power in his body was being suppressed. At first, it was just a slight obstruction, as if there was an invisible film gently wrapping the power, causing it to sluggishly flow.
But as they continued to go deeper, the suppression became stronger and stronger, and it gradually became difficult to operate. Every attempt to mobilize strength was like rowing against the current, requiring a huge effort. Until finally, even operating became completely impossible.
Lin Feng knew exactly what was going on in this scene. As far as he knew, there was a nail of punishment sent down by heaven in the abyss.
Its existence is like an insurmountable barrier, guarding this area and preventing the power of the abyss from spreading wantonly.
As several people continued to move forward, there was a loud bang and another muffled sound was heard. This sound seemed to carry a thousand pounds of force and directly hit everyone's heart. Even the earth shook violently with this loud noise.
At the same time, Lin Feng felt that his shoulders had become much heavier again. The pressure was like a mountain pressing down on his head, coming from all directions and making him a little breathless.
His steps became heavy, and every step required great effort.
Seeing this scene, Lin Feng was also surprised. A thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that someone was destroying the penalty nail? Thinking of this, Lin Feng felt that this possibility was very high.
Recalling the plot, Kong and Ye Lan used elemental power to attack the Nail of Punishment in succession, causing the abyss power sealed in the Abyss to gradually revive.
Now that this situation has occurred, it doesn't seem so difficult to understand that someone is purifying the abyss power on the Nail of Punishment.
After nearly half an hour of difficult journey, the five people finally arrived at the place where the sound came from.
The journey was extremely difficult. The terrain in the abyss was complex, the road was rugged, and there were steep rocks and deep ravines everywhere.
