Chapter 259 Lure the snake out of its hole
In the back mountain of Mingyue Sect, Gu Ning and Meng Jia stood on the edge of a cliff, with a strong wind howling.
There is no blue bird in the Mingyue Sect. This is just Schrödinger's cat in Gu Ning's imagination.
But such a "blue bird" should exist, and this "blue bird" should be quite familiar to both Gu Ning and Meng Jia.
"Junior sister, how did you know that the answer to these two lines of poetry is 'cannot be obtained'?" The sound of the wind covered Meng Jia's voice, and it drifted vaguely into Gu Ning's ears.
Gu Ning withdrew his gaze from the turquoise mountains and waters in the distance and looked at Meng Jia. There was a hint of melancholy in his eyes that Meng Jia could not understand.
"Big Brother, your brother...isn't he exactly what you want?" Gu Ning said softly, "And...Big Brother, didn't you see Song Yu's eyes..."
Those eyes were filled with unfulfilled desires.
Meng Jia's heart suddenly froze, and he suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Gu Ning, "Then, little junior sister...what is your unrequited wish?"
Gu Ning's eyes wandered away, and after a long while he whispered, "Actually... I don't know either, so the person behind the scenes can't find my 'unrequited'."
Two days had passed since the red silk was found, but there was no trace of the red silk, and there was no news of the "blue bird" that was being sought.
"Big Brother, Little Sister, why are you here?" As he was talking, he saw Ye Xiaoshu and Ye Shuming slowly coming from the mountainside. Seeing the two of them, Ye Shuming waved happily.
Seeing this, Gu Ning quickly stretched out his hand and responded, "Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Sister, come quickly, we are watching the birds flying by!"
After hearing these words, Ye Xiaoshu felt his brain shut down instantly. He quickly jumped to Gu Ning's side and asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
In front of him, a line of egrets flew into the blue sky. The mountains were beautiful and the scenery was charming. Gu Ning pointed at the line of egrets and said, "Look, aren't these birds? They're just not bluebirds."
Ye Xiaoshu rolled his eyes in annoyance and turned to look at Meng Jia, "Big Brother, are you also following Junior Sister in making trouble?"
At such a critical moment, the two parties acted as if nothing had happened and sneaked to the back mountain to watch the birds. What would happen if the person behind the scenes took advantage of the opportunity?
Meng Jia smiled with curved lips, and threw the blame to Gu Ning without any psychological burden, "It was my junior sister who said that she had a way to find the blue bird, so I came to the back mountain to get some fresh air."
"Then why didn't you tell us?" Ye Xiaoshu crossed his arms over his chest, with a proud expression that said "see if I believe it or not".
Gu Ning took Ye Xiaoshu's arm and said coquettishly, "Oh, isn't this... Master and Senior Sister, you are too nervous..."
Ye Xiaoshu's whole body froze, and he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything to refute. Indeed... knowing that his closest brothers and sisters might disappear without a trace, Ye Xiaoshu's heart... was panicked.
Even the naive Ye Shuming could see that something was wrong, so if Gu Ning wanted to do something secretly, he naturally couldn't tell Ye Xiaoshu...
"So...what do you two want to do?" Ye Xiaoshu gritted his teeth. Even Master didn't tell him. These two must be up to something bad...
"Hehe." Gu Ning approached Ye Xiaoshu and whispered, "Of course...looking for the blue bird."
As soon as he finished speaking, another group of birds flew over the forest. The weary birds missed the forest, and as it was getting dark, all the birds would return to their cages.
So, the four of them stood neatly on the edge of the cliff, enjoying the mountain breeze and waiting to watch the last ray of sunset fall back into the horizon.
And at this moment, Gu Ning suddenly moved, took a few steps forward, and stood in the air.
Meng Jia and the other two did not move, staring at Gu Ning's shadow which was stretched out long under the setting sun. A black ripple as soft and graceful as water appeared silently on Gu Ning's shadow.
"There!" It happened in a flash. The moment the ripples appeared, Meng Jia and the other two jumped out suddenly. A large net wrapped up Gu Ning's shadow from bottom to top. The struggling black ripples in it suddenly seemed to be facing a formidable enemy. They could no longer hide and rushed madly out of the net.
"Swish!" At this moment, Gu Ning's eyes narrowed slightly, and a green light flashed past her.
"Bluebird!" Without having time to say anything else, Gu Ning jumped off the cliff.
The remaining three people grasped the black ripples and were stunned for a moment. The next second, Ye Shuming shouted at the top of his voice, "Junior sister, wait for us..."
Looking at the little things that kept surging in their hands, the three of them looked at each other.
"What should I do with this?" Ye Shuming felt overwhelmed.
Born from the shadow... This was the method Gu Ning got from Xiaoqing. Then in the brightest place in Mingyue Palace, Gu Ning told them this possibility.
Gu Ning is different from Meng Jia. Meng Jia's "undesirable" must be attached to the place where Meng Xiao once stayed. This place is not just a soul body bit by bit, but is completely permeated from the inside out.
Gu Ning’s “what he wanted” could not find a place to attach to, because they didn’t even know what Gu Ning wanted.
So...the person behind the scenes wants to keep Gu Ning in harm's way without anyone noticing, so he can only hide it in a place no one would expect.
The meridians, sea of consciousness, dantian...even every inch of the skin have been carefully examined.
Only...shadows.
Xiao Qing quietly told Gu Ning in her sea of consciousness, "Find a time when the shadow is the darkest and longest, and grab it without making any noise."
That's why Gu Ning pretended to be disheartened and brought Meng Jia to the back mountain to get some fresh air.
Because the cliff on the back mountain... is the highest place in the entire Mingyue Sect, which means it is deserted and sunny.
If that thing wants to infect Gu Ning, it will definitely make some movements in the shadow. If it makes any movements... we can catch it in the jar and beat the dog behind closed doors.
But... they didn't expect that Gu Ning really saw the "Blue Bird"!
"Let's go find Junior Sister first." Meng Jia clenched his fists. "This forest under the Mingyue Sect is not a good place to deal with."
Ye Xiaoshu and Ye Shuming nodded. Ye Xiaoshu raised his hand to send a spiritual message to Song Mingyue. The next second, her face suddenly darkened.
"Master...his foot was tripped."
The person who can trip up Song Mingyue at this time must be the person behind the scenes!
But...it was too late. They couldn't leave Gu Ning alone in the Moon-Watching Forest.
Under the bright moon, there are naturally many evil thoughts.
This place...is the Moon-Watching Forest under the cliff on the back mountain.
At the foot of the cliff, Gu Ning fell into a silent and dark place.
