Chapter 439 A fog
Tianyou was a little confused about how to choose, but soon he realized that he no longer had to choose.
"Young Master."
...
"Young Master Tianyou, where are you?"
One after another, the shouts sounded in the distance, and the guards in the convoy actually came over.
He looked down at the big pit at his feet, looked at the direction of the sound again, estimated the distance, and Tianyou raised his hand and threw Duobao out again.
"Listen. Dig down yourself. If you find gold and silver, you can eat it, but if you find other treasures, bring them all back to me. If I can't use it after I check it, it will still belong to you. Remember, don't swallow it privately, I will let the Mocking Feng look at you in the sky."
Duobao tried hard to raise his non-existent neck, and his two big eyes looked into the sky, but he saw nothing. After the mocking Feng, who could freely change the color of the fur, turned black, it was like a ghost in the night, not to mention that their heads were covered with lush branches of trees. Apart from mocking Feng's infrared vision, no matter how good his eyes were, he would never find mocking Feng soaring at a height of 1,000 meters under this situation.
Although he saw nothing, Duobao nodded vigorously and promised: "Don't worry, master, I will definitely not steal food."
Tianyou nodded and kicked the guy into the big pit, then swung his flying claws to hook the branch in front of him, and as he tried his best, he went up to the tree. He stepped on the branch that was handed over and ran in the canopy, deliberately circled half a circle, approaching the guard who was calling him from another direction, and then jumped down behind a thick tree. He patted the soil and branches and leaves on his body, and slowly adjusted a comfortable expression on his face that had just cleared his stomach and intestines. Tianyou then turned out from behind the tree, pretending to be tidying up and down, and said, "I'm here."
"Young Master."
"Don't you let me leave first? Why did you come here?" Tianyou asked indifferently, and looked at the person coming.
It was not a guard who came over, but a large group of guards. Almost one-fifth of the guards in the convoy came over, and the commander was also among them. Seeing Tianyou, he immediately came up with him. Moreover, the guy even put his hand behind him and made a hidden gesture to the guard behind him. He didn't know that on the trunk not far away, his eyes with a light purple light radiant look at it all in his eyes.
The guards following the guards who saw the cleaning up immediately gave the others a wink, but no one took action. It was not until Tianyou and the guards walked towards the convoy and pulled a distance that two of the guards took action. Instead of following Tianyou back to the convoy, they went around behind the trunks and searched. One of them even took a few breaths and tried to smell something after pushing away the grass and patrolling for a while and finding nothing.
The two of them, who couldn't find anything, looked at each other, then turned around and caught up with the team in front. At this time, Tianyou's mouth twitched in a slight way. "These bastards are really looking for shit! It's a pity that they were not prepared. If I had known it, I would have really prepared for you to try it!"
Tianyou, who was thinking about the matter, had already returned to the convoy. At this time, the convoy had completely stopped. Ji Yao stood outside the car and saw Tianyou coming back, she immediately looked worried and asked, "Where have you been? Why don't you say that?"
"I worry you, I will pay attention next time." Tianyou didn't defend anything, because he knew that this was just a routine inquiry, and Ji Yao didn't care and didn't want to get any answers from him.
Sure enough, Ji Yao nodded and warned her, and then asked Tianyou to return to her car. Two guards who had previously checked the situation behind the tree passed by Tianyou, and then put them in the ear of the guard commander and whispered something. The commander immediately reported to Ji Yao again. Tianyou was far beyond ordinary people's hearing, although he could not hear what they were saying, he could guess what they were muttering. He shook his head sneeredly and continued to walk towards his carriage.
"What are you laughing at?" The guards beside the plate were puzzled when they saw Tianyou's smile.
"Suddenly I thought of something fun." Tianyou responded casually, and then boarded the carriage.
Back in the car, Hu Qingxuan, who had been sitting in a state of meditation, suddenly dissipated in the air.
Tianyou nodded to the air beside him. "Thank you. It's a good job."
"It is the duty of demon pets to share the worries of the master, so you don't have to be polite." Hu Qingxuan appeared from nothingness and responded to Tianyou with a smile. Just now, Hu Qingxuan used illusion to leave the carriage and monitor it in the distance to make Tianyou understand the distrust of the guards in him. Moreover, even without Hu Qingxuan's report, Tianyou also noticed that the attitude of the guards had changed significantly from before he left. He was casual and polite before, but now he has become a respectful response and disguised one. No need to guess, it must be the cheap mother who said something to the guard commander. This "mother" really made Tianyou increasingly unable to see through.
After Tianyou sat down, the carriage started to move again, Qi Xiaomei asked again: "Short after you left, Fairy Biyou noticed that the convoy slowed down, and then she called the guards to scold him. Why is Fairy Biyou so concerned about your movements? It feels like...it's like..."
"The prisoner in escort?"
Sister Qi shook her head, then nodded again. "I don't know either, it just feels very strange."
"All human mothers do this?" Hu Niu suddenly asked: "My mother only raised me until she could hunt myself and drove me out of her territory. Why do you humans raise children so big?"
"I really don't know how to explain this to you."
Tianyou said he didn't know how to explain, but Hu Niu didn't ask any more questions. The car soon fell into peace again, leaving only the creaking sound of the axle turning and moving forward with the sound of horse hooves.
When Tianyou woke up again in the shaking carriage, it was already bright. He picked up the curtain and looked out. The convoy was still moving, but everyone looked listless. Obviously, they didn't stop to rest last night.
If the first half of the night was to catch up with their delayed journey during the day to get to the scheduled campsite, then it would be a bit unreasonable why they didn't stop in the second half of the night.
Tianyou didn't understand why Ji Yao ordered the convoy to force the marching, but he knew that even if Ji Yao asked, he would definitely not tell him the reason, so he didn't plan to spend too much time playing text games with Ji Yao.
After the journey was bumpy until evening, the convoy finally stopped, but the camping site was not a village, but a small river.
Travelers on Shenzhou Continent have a saying: "Don't enter the forest when you are in the forest, and don't get close to the water when you are in the process." The meaning is also very straightforward, that is, do not leave the road and walk into the forest casually when you are in the process, and do not approach the water source when you are in the camping process.
The Shenzhou Continent is not the earth ruled by humans. Besides, even on the earth, there are still countless people who die in the deep mountains and forests. However, the situation here is much more serious. Not to mention the dangers of the mountains and forests themselves, the dangers hidden among the forests should not be underestimated. Even a team of monks in three or five inexplicably disappearing into the mountains and forests is not a strange thing. Or it should be said... this is the norm.
If the mountains and forests are not safe, then the waterside will be even more unsafe. Even demons cannot completely leave the water source. Moreover, those demons hidden underwater are often more difficult to deal with than those on land. Because of this, the waterside is definitely not a good camping place. On the Shenzhou Continent, whether humans or demons are close to the waterside, they should be careful and wary, let alone rest by the waterside. However, an old man like Ji Yao should not know about these, but she chose such a place to set up a camp, which is really strange.
Tianyou didn't know what Ji Yao was going to do, but he really didn't think there would be any actual threat, so he didn't even talk too much about the reason. Anyway, it would be a waste of time to ask.
Fortunately, after a night passed, they did not encounter any trouble, and Tianyou, who was sleeping with the Emperor Daojian, felt a little disappointed. He thought Ji Yao would have some other intentions in making arrangements like this, but he didn't expect nothing to happen.
However, the situation was a little strange after dawn.
Tianyou, who woke up early in the morning, did two morning exercises in a row, and Ji Yao still had no intention of setting off. No sound came from her tent, as if she hadn't woken up yet.
Although Tianyou felt strange, he did not take the initiative to break the silence. He just waited until almost noon before Ji Yao finally walked out of her tent. Even Chu Feifan got up much earlier than Ji Yao.
Tianyou didn't believe that Ji Yao had the habit of sleeping in at the level of cultivation, but he couldn't guess what Ji Yao wanted to do. Now everyone can see that her behavior is abnormal, but she is probably the only one who really knows the reason. Maybe Chu Feifan has to be included. This precious apprentice Ji Yao is very caring for her.
The convoy was delayed until after lunch, but Ji Yao didn't want to take a nap, otherwise they wouldn't have to set off this day. But in fact, they didn't go much far, because less than half an hour after leaving in the afternoon, Tianyou even doubted whether the supplies convoy behind had packed up the tent. Ji Yao suddenly became interested in a flower bus on the side of the road and insisted on getting off the car to enjoy the flowers, but it took a few more hours.
During the day, Ji Yao was deliberately delaying her trip. Tianyou thought she would announce that she would delay the camping site, but when it was almost dusk, Ji Yao issued a strange order again.
She did not let the convoy camp or even let everyone have supper. Instead, she suddenly remembered the anxious things on the first day of departure, and asked the convoy to run at full speed. In order to save time, she even made fun of dinner, and everyone could only eat dry food.
Although Tianyou did not plan to ask Ji Yao what she was doing, he did not give up on the grasp of the environment, and his observation finally achieved results.
The convoy running at night was not moving slowly, but under the infrared vision of the wind, several small heat sources gathered from all directions at extremely fast speed.
These heat sources are obviously from individual people, and being able to chase the carriage easily can also ensure that Ji Yao in the carriage ahead will not notice that these people's cultivation is not very low.
Such a group of people appeared around the convoy in the middle of the night, obviously not a good thing. However, something even more strange is still behind.
Just when Tianyou was planning to let Xuanfeng lower his height and carefully see who the enemy was catching up with was around him, Ji Yao, who had been acting abnormally these days, suddenly flew out of his carriage.
Without any hesitation, Ji Yao, who left the carriage, rushed straight towards the nearest target, then met and separated. The gap between the strength of the two sides was too big, and there was no fight with me. Tianyou even doubted whether those people saw Ji Yao take action.
In total, only a few targets discovered by Xuanfeng were wiped out.
