Chapter 632 Background Rabbit Spirit (4)

Shen Yao opened the curtains and looked at the mountains and trees in the distance that were shrouded in light clouds. She thought that there were many monsters here, and the strong demonic aura was about to become visible.

The carriage of Qingwei Escort Agency sped up, and even Escort Master Zheng stopped talking to Shen Yao, as they all hurried on their way.

Da da da--

The horse's hooves slammed heavily on the soft and moist soil, splashing mud flowers, as if someone was chasing from behind. A tense atmosphere slowly enveloped the entire Qingwei Escort Agency.

"Hey! Stop the car and take a rest!"

Following an order from the chief escort who was walking in front, the suppressed emotions suddenly dissipated, and everyone who had been concentrating their energy breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss Shen, please get off the car."

Zheng Li's cheerful voice came from outside the car.

Shen Yao lifted the curtain in front of her, took Zheng Li's arm and jumped.

"here it is"

The soil under her feet was too soft. Shen Yao raised her eyes and looked around curiously.

Zheng Li smiled and said, "Fortunately, the escort agency has been escorting for many years and has its own routes.

This mountain road to Floating Cloud City was personally opened by the chief escort. Although dangerous, it can save several days of effort and avoid certain unspeakable things. "

Things that cannot be expressed in words?

Shen Yao thought of what Zheng Li had said about monsters, and thought that this was unavoidable. She could only say that some big monsters in the mountains would restrain the small monsters and prevent the Qingwei Escort Agency from being disturbed.

It seems that the chief escort of the Qingxing Escort Agency is something of a character. When we were in Qingping City, didn't Lao Zhu say that the chief escort was saved by an immortal when he was young? Is there some unspeakable cause and effect here?

Shen Yao looked forward intently, but unfortunately she was too far away from the chief escort and could only vaguely see the other party's outline.

Tut tut

"It's not a demon, and there's not much demonic energy about it." Instead, it has too much evil energy.

It seems that this chief escort has been escorting for many years and has killed many monsters and demons.

After all, when escorting a bodyguard, one must always keep his head on his waist. If one does not have a strong evil spirit, he cannot be an escort at all.

The convoy rested on the spot and set up temporary tents to live in.

Shen Yao didn't need to do these rough manual labor, so she just walked around and looked around, enjoying the scenery of the mountains and the distant landscape.

In the distance, there was a flash of light.

"Host, it's a demon!"

The system almost jumped out of its seat with excitement, wishing it could play a loud announcement right there and then.

Shen Yao:......

"There are more demons on the mountain, why make such a fuss?" She is a demon now too.

"Host, why don't you go and keep in touch with us?" "As fellow fairies, there's no harm in communicating with each other."

"A carnivorous wolf demon, do you want me to build relationships with it or walk into its trap?" Her true form was a rabbit spirit, and her original form was only the size of an adult's arm, not even enough for the wolf demon to fill its teeth.

Rolling her eyes at the unreliable system, Shen Yao casually plucked the wild flowers and weeds beside her, and using the strength in her hands, twisted them into a beautiful bouquet.

Zheng Li called her over for dinner, which was a soup made with fresh meat, paired with vegetables stir-fried with fresh green sprouts, and a bowl of rice.

Shen Yao took a bite of vegetables, a sip of soup, and a mouthful of rice. After she was full, she touched her bulging belly and thought that the food at Qingwei Escort Agency was really good, except that the cost was a bit too high.

"Miss Shen, you must not leave the tent after dark tonight. Even if you hear someone calling you, don't respond. We will leave at dawn."

Zheng Li had a serious expression and said that she would sleep at the door of Shen Yao's tent at night and Shen Yao could call her at any time if she had any problems.

"Master Zheng, don't worry, I won't go out tonight," but if someone/demon sneaks into the tent, she will not ignore it.

"Host, could it be that a demon has sneaked down the mountain?" The system is too sneaky.

"The mountain is so big, and there are so many monsters, not to mention how much the monsters yearn for the human world." Suddenly seeing so many people, unless the little monster has experienced many big monsters, it will be easy to be confused.

After making her own bedding, Shen Yao took off the jewelry on her head and placed it on the edge of the bed, then lay back on the bed and closed her eyes.

As night fell, the Qingwei Escort Agency's convoy formed a large circle, with several torches lit in the middle, and escorts were going back and forth to keep watch and patrol.

crackling-

It was the sound of burning wood. Seeing this, the young escort added more fuel to the fire and immediately raised his hand to rub his eyes. "Why is there fog?"

A thin layer of light gray fog floated around the convoy, and just smelling it made me feel sleepy.

Ok?

The young escort's eyelids twitched, and finally he slapped himself cruelly, and at the same time woke up the escort who was keeping watch with him, "Something happened!"

In an instant, the neighing of horses made the entire station lively.

However, this kind of bustle was only for a moment, and then the whole station became quiet, as if you could hear a pin drop.

Shen Yao was lying on the bed sleeping, and if you ignore her rapid blinking eyelids.

Not far away, a rat demon, only the size of a palm but with golden eyes, stared at the jewelry beside the bed with a sly look.

"Hey hey hey, I'm rich!"

The biggest hobby of this spirit mouse is to collect shiny gold things. The jewelry that Shen Yao carries with her directly hits the mouse spirit's hobby. As a result, the other monsters repeatedly asked to steal only horses, but the mouse spirit couldn't help but run in to steal the jewelry.

The gray claws tightly grasped the edge of the ornament. The rat demon was about to return the same way, but before it left, its peripheral vision suddenly rose.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..." Help!

"Stop yelling! Even if you scream your throat out, no demon will notice you, a dishonest rat spirit."

Shen Yao stood up and sat down, still wearing the same clothes she wore during the day, except that her hair was loose and draped behind her head.

Holding the rat demon's tail in one hand and shaking it from side to side, Shen Yao tapped the demon's forehead with the other hand, "Don't be greedy."

Rat Demon: ...Squeak! (It's wrong!)

Changing her position to lean against him, Shen Yao glanced out the deserted window and asked, "Tell me, why did you guys come down the mountain?"

"squeak"

"speak English"

"Squeak, squeak, I'm not very familiar with it, I just became a monster, not long ago"

The mouse demon spoke haltingly, feeling like crying but unable to do so.

It's so unfair. I was just a little greedy for money, but it's not a serious crime. Why did I end up in trouble?

Shen Yao didn't get much out of the rat demon's mouth. It was because the rat demon was too marginal and had no sense of existence. Even the monsters who came down the mountain this time were just interested in the horses that were used to transport people and goods, and wanted to take them back to satisfy their cravings.

"You are carrying the big monster down the mountain, aren't you afraid of something happening?" Shen Yao raised her eyebrows.

"The big demon is not on the mountain, otherwise we wouldn't dare to act rashly," the rat demon said and begged Shen Yao to let him go. It was really just a first-time offender, and he would continue to practice in seclusion after returning to the mountain.

"Oh? How did you find out about the demon? Be careful, this is just a trick."

"No, there is no trace of the demon on the mountain. It means the demon has been gone for a while."

After the rat spirit finished speaking, it sniffed its nose, indicating that its nose was very sensitive and it could smell the scent of the fox spirit from a long distance. There was no trace of it at the moment, so it was definitely not around.

It turns out that the big monster here is a fox spirit.

Shen Yao shook the rat spirit in her hand and chatted with the system in her mind, "Could it be a vixen who has some relationship with me?"

system:……

The system responded with silence, and Shen Yao chuckled. "So where is she going? Floating Cloud City?"

"Host, the fox spirit, and the scholar met, got to know each other, and fell in love in Jiangning City. It was only after the scholar went to the capital that the subsequent story unfolded."

"Oh, then it has nothing to do with me," he said, throwing the rat demon in his hand to the ground with a thud, "I can escape the death penalty, but I can't escape the living punishment.

We fairies don't follow so many rules of the human world. You are not capable enough to be caught by me.

Leave a little tail behind and return to the mountains to cultivate ascetically."

In the end, Shen Yao chose to show leniency. If it were any other monster, it would be hard to say whether the rat monster's life could be saved.

The rat demon obviously knew the ins and outs of this. He silently chopped off a piece of his tail, then bowed to Shen Yao, turned around, and disappeared in a wisp of green smoke.

It is said that we come and go in a hurry.

The rat demon originally wanted to take some jewels to fill the inner treasury, but ended up losing both his wife and his army, and even he himself has been unable to come down the mountain and enter the world in recent years.

"If you don't want to go down, then don't go down. There are so many talented people and goblin seniors at the foot of the mountain. I, a mere rat spirit, am not even worthy of carrying their shoes."

The rat demon looked at his broken tail and felt sad about the loss of his cultivation. Fortunately, his foundation was not damaged this time. Since the senior demon let him go, he would probably not pursue the matter further.

Shen Yao had no idea that the mouse spirit who had already escaped had such a rich inner drama.

Seeing that the station was quiet and everyone was lost in dreams, she knew that the Qingwei Escort Agency would not be able to keep the horses it brought this time.

As expected, the wild mountains without the control and management of the big monsters are still dangerous. If it is not necessary, you should not come here easily.

If what the mouse demon said is true, it won’t be long before the demons in the mountains will enter the human world one after another, either becoming the cultivation nourishment for others, or being contaminated by the cause and effect and making life difficult for demons.

Only a very small number of demons that enter the world can improve their cultivation and return to the mountains and forests without being affected by cause and effect. The heights reached by such demons are enough to make it difficult for other demons to reach.

…………

After a night, Zheng Li was the first to wake up.

She stood up and looked towards the camp, and found that the escorts who were supposed to be on night patrol were all lying on the ground, and there was a makeshift cattle shed in the distance that was so clean that not even a hair was left.

Zheng Li woke up the escorts and then reported the situation to the chief escort in the tent. After these important matters were completed, she returned to Shen Yao's tent and asked in a low voice.

Shen Yao rubbed her eyes and lifted a corner of the tent. "I slept a little groggy last night. Escort Zheng, what happened at the camp?"

Zheng Li nodded and said, "The animals that were supposed to pull the cart are gone. We must have run into those ghostly mountain spirits who are good at creating illusions."

She seemed to hear someone shout "something happened" last night, but she had no recollection of what happened after that.

"Miss Shen, hurry up and wash up, we may need to leave this mountain range."

"it is good"

Zheng Li turned around, her hand tightly gripping the hilt of the horizontal sword, her eyes scanning the surroundings sharply, wishing she could dig three feet into the ground to eliminate the danger.

In fact, there was no danger in Tianliang's base, because those fairies who thought they had made a profit had returned to the mountains early, and some who liked the hustle and bustle were shouting that they wanted to eat, drink and have fun.

As for why demons don't eat humans, human flesh is sour and full of impurities, and it's not a tonic. With the exception of some unpretentious or uncritical demons, virtually no demon would enjoy eating humans.

After Shen Yao finished washing up, she changed into a set of tight clothes that would be convenient for traveling.

There was no other way. Without horses, the cars could not be used, so everyone had to leave on foot.

Even though the people from the Qingwei Escort Agency promised that they would purchase new carriages and horses when they arrived at the next town, there were still various complaints from the crowd.

Shen Yao carried the small bag half on her back. In front of her was Zheng Li, who was responsible for leading the way. There were also several women around her who were dressed in fancy clothes and were not suitable for walking.

These were all customers of the Qingwei Escort Agency. Zheng Li could only patiently coax them away, even though their pace was getting slower and slower.

"Master Zheng, it's getting dark."

Shen Yao raised her sleeve to wipe the sweat from her chin. Through the bright light with shadows scattered everywhere, she could still feel the cold and dimness of the forest.

Zheng Li looked up when she heard this, somewhat dissatisfied with their progress today. At the current speed, it would take several days to get out of the mountains.

But on the first night they arrived, they encountered a setback with the disappearance of their livestock. Who knows if they will run into bigger trouble if they stay here for a few more days.

Zheng Li knew that there were monsters here. In the past, she rarely encountered monsters that ate people when escorting goods. But now was different. Who knew what the monsters were thinking.

After waving his hand and letting them rest on the spot, Zheng Li turned around and went to ask the chief escort for instructions.

Sure enough, it is better to stay where you are to rest than to travel at night.

The chief escort waved his hand, asking the escorts to be on guard, and the others to set up tents and rest on the spot.

Shen Yao got a tent without any trouble, but for safety reasons, Zheng Li needed to live with her.

Of course Shen Yao had no problem with it, but Zheng Li was embarrassed and adjusted her special clothes. If the situation was not complicated, the escort would not stay with the client.

The food in the evening was simpler, not bad, but not as leisurely as before.

Because the livestock were missing, the Qingwei Escort Agency had to reluctantly leave behind a lot of luggage, including all kinds of food, drinks and other items.

Now they eat what is portable and can only wait until the next town to replenish it.

The customers on this trip all had their own difficulties, including the escorts from the escort agency. Even though they managed to get everyone to Floating Cloud City safely, they still lost money on this deal.

Fortunately, no one was killed, otherwise the Qingwei Escort Agency would be in even greater trouble.

Shen Yao rested normally at night and slept soundly. However, the escorts from the escort agency were tense all night and only relaxed a lot after dawn.

The team continued on their journey, trying to leave the mountains in the shortest possible time.

At this time, the chief escort's murderous aura helped them to block some unintelligent wild beasts, and also added some meaty flavor to their food.

Three days later in the morning, the Qingwei Escort Agency successfully led their men down the mountain.

"There's a fairly large town about ten miles ahead. Let's hurry and try to stay in an inn tonight."

Rather than empty promises, tangible benefits are more motivating.

Everyone had to sleep in the open air in the mountains. The men were fine, but the women really couldn't bear it.

I heard you can stay at the inn tonight? What are you waiting for? Let's get going quickly.
