There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea: 97. The ninth dragon scale (seven)

The ninth dragon scale (seven)

Today... is it her first day in the forest?

Time has no meaning to Qi Pan.

She forgot her language and lost her five senses. She couldn't smell the fragrance of the grass, she couldn't taste the food in her mouth, she didn't need to eat, she didn't need to drink water, she didn't need to sleep, and there was only this quiet and lonely scene in her eyes. Because she didn't speak for a long time, she almost forgot the language.

The beasts here won't salivate at her, because she's not a living human at all, her flesh doesn't have any appeal to them, and even on a hot night, mosquitoes won't crawl on her. Qi Pan passed by the prey wolf, and it didn't even bother to look at her, as if she was a leaf falling from a tree and a dead flower behind her.

She lived like this for a long time, not knowing when she was going to die, or what her existence meant.

It wasn't until a long time later that a man finally appeared in this remote and inaccessible forest.

Qi Pan was a little worried when she discovered the traces of human beings. It has been a long time that no human has entered by mistake, but the forest is dangerous. She always tries her best to guide them out without others finding her.

But the footprints of this person today have reached the center of the forest.

Without the dragon scales in Qi Pan's body, he has become a complete puppet. She has a jumping ability that is different from ordinary people, and she moves very fast. Following the footsteps of that person, she saw him.

Today is the seventeenth day that Tang Shenbai came to this forest. Starting from the entrance of the forest, little by little, he carried out a carpet-like search by himself. He was wearing a mountaineering suit, carrying a marching bag, and brought enough dry food and fresh water. After five years, he returned here again.

There is no trace of human life in the forest, no fire, and nothing else. Tang Shenbai didn't know whether his dream was true or not. Five years ago, he led the sharp blade team on a mission, and he lost something very important after that.

What is that?

He doesn't know.

But he was always vaguely dreaming that the forest was calling him. So he saved five years of vacation and asked for it all at once, trying to find the answer. The forest is dangerous, he knew that when he came here five years ago. They groped carefully in the forest, countless poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions, wolves, tigers and leopards, and the seemingly gorgeous plants were highly poisonous. Maybe if they sat under the trees for a while, a man-eating python would appear behind them.

Even with deworming medicines, it's futile. The closer you get to the depths of the forest, the more diffuse the miasma, and it is easy to make people sick. No one can live in such a place for a long time.

But until he came to the end of the forest and saw the beach again, he still found no trace of humans.

————————————

Qi Pan has been following Tang Shenbai, even if he is an excellent commander of the special forces, he will not be able to find her. She followed him because she was afraid that he would be in danger. Now she is the only one who knows this forest like the back of her hand. This is the junction of several countries, and it has always been sparsely populated. What is he doing here?

He seemed to be looking for something, but Qi Pan was pretty sure he didn't leave anything behind, except for the camouflage jacket she had been wearing.

Oh, Qi Pan was reluctant to wear it later. Although she won't be injured or bleed, no matter how good the coat is, it will be damaged. So she folded her coat and stored it properly, and she would sneak to the nearest village to steal some clothes to wear.

It doesn't matter if she doesn't wear it, there's no one else here anyway, and she can't feel cold or hot anyway. But Qi Pan has been a person for a long time, and she still can't be so bold.

————————————

Tang Shenbai found a huge hollowed-out stone. In fact, it cannot be said that he found it, because the stone was hidden very hidden. Although it was on the edge of the forest, it was covered with vegetation. He didn't know why he went to Go here, let alone why there is a boulder here.

Pushing through the grass, he saw what was inside. There were neatly folded straw mats woven with hay, layer by layer, which seemed to be moisture-proof, and a familiar camouflage coat was placed on it. It was five His one from years ago.

Only after boarding the helicopter did Tang Shenbai realize that his coat was missing, and he couldn't remember where it was lost.

It was never from him.

Sure enough, there is another person in the forest!

"Are you here!"

—————————

When Qi Pan heard this, she was so frightened that she thought she was discovered, and quickly held her breath—then laughed at herself as a fool. She quickly jumped up the treetops and hid where the branches and leaves were thickest. Qi Pan couldn't hold herself, so she didn't know how much she weighed, but she was able to float lightly on the water when she jumped into the sea, and she was extremely light in weight. After jumping down, Qi Pan was afraid for a long time. She was afraid that the puppet would be damaged because of the water, so she lay on the beach alone and basked in the sun for a long time until the moisture in her body disappeared - if there is moisture .

But who is the little uncle asking? Who else is here?

"I want to meet you!"

Qi Pan pursed his lips, but still did not make a sound, but quietly pushed aside the branches and leaves to look at him. He stood in front of the boulder, Qi Pan usually slept in it, saying that sleeping was actually finding a place to stay, she didn't feel sleepy or tired, she used to hold that coat when she was nesting inside, Happy even when lonely.

Being able to see him again, Qi Pan felt that it was worth it to die.

She didn't move, but was very nervous, afraid that he would take the coat away and she would be left with nothing.

Will it be taken?

No way?

Tang Shenbai didn't move that coat. With his ability, he found nothing in the forest for nearly a month. This is almost impossible. He lay in an ambush on the edge of the stone, waiting for the people who lived here to come back.

It's no wonder Qi Pan will go back, she just stayed in the tree and looked at him.

Tang Shenbai waited for nearly half a month, but no one approached. In the end, he gave up this idea and sat in front of the stone in a daze. Qi Pan didn't want him to go, and he wanted him to go. What would he do here? His dry food is almost finished, and he has eaten almost nothing these days. Qi Pan found some wild fruits and wanted to give them to him, but he was afraid of being found out. He could find food by himself, but he refused to leave. that stone.

Tang Shenbai stayed in the forest for three full months, and when the fourth month came, his vacation was coming to an end, and he was going to return to the army to continue his duties as a soldier.

"...I'm leaving."

Qi Pan bit her lower lip and hummed softly.

"Maybe I won't be able to come here again in the future to find the answers I want."

It doesn't matter if you don't come, you should live a good life, what are you doing in such a dangerous place again?

"Do you really exist? In the only life I have left, do you still know what I have lost?"

Qi Pan was taken aback, she grabbed the branch tightly, what is the only life left? How old is he this year? Although Qi Pan doesn't know how long she's been here, she can estimate that it's been several years. At first, she was so lonely that she was about to go crazy. Later, she wrote numbers on the beach every day. leave no trace. She didn't know how long it had passed, but it had been at least five years.

Time is meaningless to Qi Pan. She has seen her face facing the sea, and there is no change. She is not a normal human being at all, and she cannot survive in human society.

"I'm leaving."

Wait a minute, don't go! Your words are not clear yet!

Qi Pan almost jumped off the tree to ask him what happened, but Tang Shenbai said nothing.

She watched him leave the forest, and she was very concerned about that sentence. After more than ten days alone, she finally couldn't bear the worry and suffering in her heart. She went to the nearest village again and stole a Putting a dress on himself, of course, as a price, Qi Pan left behind the small animals he caught in the forest and edible wild fruit mushrooms.

When she met the sharp blade team a few years ago, they once said that she was from the Z country, and when Qi Pan left the forest, she saw the border. When he got up, he was on his way in the evening. When the little uncle left, he left everything, food, water, matches, and some necessities of life. In addition, Qi Pan also found the address in his backpack.

She's not stupid and doesn't dare to appear in front of people at will, but she took the things she brought out of the forest to sell at the night market, and got some money, and then she found it in a remote town In an Internet cafe, I went in and found all the information I needed, and left quickly.

When she went to great lengths to find Tang Shenbai's house, she didn't see him. Instead, the two old people who lived at that address, namely Tang Shenbai's parents, got up early every day and didn't see him until evening. When they will come back, the two go home to cook according to the three meals alternately, and then drive out with the lunch box. Once, Mother Tang may have forgotten to lock the trunk, so Qi Pan took the opportunity to hide in. When the car stopped, she ran out and hid in the corner of the underground parking lot.

At night, Father Tang drove to deliver dinner, and Qi Pan quietly followed behind him.

I didn't meet anyone along the way, so Qi Pan didn't dare to take the elevator. She avoided seeing Father Tang press the button for the sixteenth floor, and ran up the stairs that basically no one took.

The corridor was empty, and there were patients' names outside each ward. Qi Pan found Tang Shenbai.

Father Tang left after delivering the meal. While the nurse at the front desk was not paying attention, Qi Pan pushed open the door of the ward that was not closed and walked in quietly.
