Chapter 291: A Letter
"Young man, you have to be measured in everything, you have gone too far!" The people here are simple, and they are still the first to reason with scoundrels like Han Qi.
"Hey, you can take the medicine indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, which of your eyes sees that I set the fire? Unexpectedly, this shameless Han Qi didn't listen to them at all, and he bared his teeth and denied it.
"Who else but you? Didn't you tell him to go home first, and if it wasn't for the fire you set on fire, how would you know what was going on behind you?"
"It's really lonely, don't you know that I have a back eye?" Han Qi put on a very surprised expression.
"Han Zhu has a back eye, you lie to the ghost!"
"Of course you don't know, because you haven't seen my body! hehe, I'm not going to let you, a half-old man, look at it if you have a young daughter at home...... I can consider showing her, hehehehehe......"
"You, you...... It's really shameless......" Several youkai were trembling with anger from this eloquent and thick-skinned man, and just as they decided to end the practice of saluting first and then entering the next procedure, Han Qi suddenly restrained his smile and bowed deeply to them.
"I'm sorry everyone, I've caused so much trouble to everyone, I'm leaving, I wish you all a good meal and sleep, hehehehe......" disappeared on the spot after speaking.
"He ran away!" Several youkai were stunned, and when they reacted, they had lost the opportunity to catch up, after all, if they wanted to try the escape technique with Hanqi, none of the youkai present dared to be arrogant and thought that they would win.
The monsters looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and hurriedly joined the firefighting team.
As soon as the monsters left, Han Zhu came out of the ground again, and he sighed lazily: "I just told you to go to his house to steal something, why burn other people's houses? This is not Jin Ying's house, there may be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon everywhere, if you make too much trouble, we will be unlucky at that time." ”
"It's not Yan'er's little bastard's ghost, that thing didn't find it for a while, it was in a hurry, and before I could stop it, the fire was burning!" A fairy with a fairy spirit and an indescribably beautiful appearance, a fairy in a moon skirt came out of the woods, holding a Vermilion Bird that was still flapping its wings unwillingly.
"Let go of me, burn, rob, kill, the Sanguang policy ......" Suzaku shouted emotionally.
"Shut up!Hmph, I'm going to tell Hotaru that you bear kid didn't listen to me at all, and I was almost burned to death!" the fairy yelled at Suzaku in a fierce tone that didn't match her appearance in the slightest.
"Why should I listen to you? You've been abusing me all the way, I'm going to go back and sue! I'm going to sue! Hey, let me go. ”
Han Qi stepped forward and flicked its head with his finger: "Hey, little villain, do you still want to help Jin Ying!"
As soon as Suzaku heard this, he miraculously quieted down, snorted, and flew up to the tree.
Han Qi turned his head and asked the fairy, "How is it, has she found what she wanted?"
"Alas, I found it, but I only burned half of it," the fairy, dressed in ancient costumes, took out an envelope from his sleeve that had been burned black, and handed it to Han Qi with a pout, "It's all like this, I don't know if she still admits it?"
"As long as this thing isn't in the hands of that mandrill with a big carrot, I guess she will destroy the corpse immediately if she takes it back, you don't think she's going to take it back for a souvenir collection, right?" Han Qi squeezed his eyes at her and laughed, his last sentence deliberately turned to the woods.
In a dark corner of the woods, a woman wrapped in a black robe stepped out, stood less than three meters away from the Hanji, and held out a white hand to him without saying a word.
Han Qi blew on the half-burnt letter in his hand, and the envelope floated towards the other party, and when it was about to reach the palm of the other party's hand, it suddenly fell down and fell at the woman's feet.
Han Qi looked at her with a smile: "Hey, beauty, is it this letter?" I will state first, I definitely didn't read it, but it's a pity to give up the opportunity to see such a wonderful letter, hehehehe......"
The woman knew that he deliberately did not deliver the letter to her, but she didn't care about being angry, she leaned over and picked up the letter, and when she opened it, her hand trembled slightly, she looked at the contents of the letter, exhaled slightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes, that's it." ”
"That's ......," he snapped his finger at her.
Although the woman had made an unfair deal with them, she did not want to break the contract when she had the goods, so she took something out of her bosom and put it on the ground at her feet, and with a flick of her hand, the letter immediately turned to ashes.
She opened her palm, let the ashes fly away with the wind, let out a long sigh, remembering the past that disappeared and could not be looked back, I don't know whether it was sad or helpless, she didn't look at Ji Ao and them again, then turned around and slowly walked into the darkness.
As soon as he grabbed the void, the thing on the ground automatically flew over and landed in his hand.
"See, she really destroyed the corpse. Now that we've got it, let's go. Yan'er is making such a fuss, we can't stay in this place. Alas, what a pity, the inhabitants are so hospitable, I would have liked to get some food here to eat on the way. He raised his hand to the fairy standing aside.
"I want to eat! I want to eat chaise chicken! Camphor tea duck! Dongpo meat!" Suzaku, who had finally calmed down, shouted again when he heard the word "eat," "Do you want to starve me to death? Hey, I'm dying of hunger! Give me food! Do you want to abuse me?"
"See, little glutton, I'll go find you something to eat! Don't scream, do you want to bring all the inhabitants here? Thanks to you, we're now the least popular people here!" shouted at Suzaku with his ears covered.
"I'm going to eat! I'm going to eat! or I'm going to keep screaming!" Suzaku jumped up and down and made a noise, getting louder and louder.
These two demons and a spirit beast are Ji Ao, Li Yao and Yan'er, who came here to steal the elixir for Jin Ying, with an ethereal hope.
The three of them were not born in the human world, although Yan'er was hatched in the human world, its birthplace was not in the human world, among the three, only Ji Ao had traveled to all walks of life, so before they set off, they had to listen to Ji Ao's arrangements along the way.
Reason told Li Yao that it was impossible to do what they wanted to do with the strength of her half-tone Hundred Flowers Fairy, a Han Zhu, and a minor Vermilion Bird, and if there was a glimmer of hope, it would only be possible to rely on proud cleverness and luck.
So she kept her promise from the moment she set off, and listened to Ji Ao for everything, whether he was pretending to be crazy and stupid or playing treacherous, even if she was cheating, she turned a blind eye and followed him silently.
Because she was sure that Ji Ao would never joke about Jin Ying.
Yan'er was quite obedient at first, because he was worried about Jin Ying, so his temperament was a lot more restrained, and he had been amazed by the scenery and creatures of the strange world along the way, so he didn't make trouble for the time being.
But as time went on, its patience began to slowly wear off. After walking for a few months and not reaching the destination, Ji Ao was not allowed to do this or that along the way, and he didn't even have enough time to sleep.
The most unbearable thing for it is that it is not allowed to hunt at will, so its food during this time is mainly dry food and cold water, and occasionally there is time, so it can catch some game by the way, and it has not even eaten a monster for so long.
Even if the monster that took the initiative to attack them was killed by them, Ji Ao did not allow it to eat, on the contrary, buried the dead monster and continued to hurry. How could Yan'er, who couldn't eat or sleep well, be in a good mood? Since a few days ago, it has resumed its habit of going against Ji Ao everywhere, always making trouble for him noisily.
If it weren't for the fact that he still understood the purpose of coming here, and because of Li Yao's constraints, it would have made this small team unable to move forward a long time ago.
They had been wandering around this place for several days, because their destination was not far away, and the mountain system of Hayayama, where the Aoyao Mountain was located, was not far away.
This mountain range stretches for more than 440 miles, and its area and height are not outstanding among the mountain systems that are often thousands or even tens of thousands of miles from all walks of life, but it has a unique status: there are three gods living near this relatively small mountain range, and the Qingyao Mountain, the lower capital of the Emperor of Heaven, is in this mountain range.
Therefore, the mountain gods of this mountain system are even more severe, and monsters of unknown origin like Ji Ao and them, let alone entering the Qingyao Mountain, can't even step on the boundary of the mountain.
They lingered for a long time near the mountain, hoping to find an opportunity to slip in.
But the mountain patrol gods here are no better than other places, and their rigorous work style makes Ji Ao feel admired, and even a slippery head like him has not found a little loophole.
It was not easy to come to the foot of the mountain after a long journey, but I could only look at the rolling mountains on the horizon from afar and sigh. Ji Ao and Li Yao had a headache because of this, but they could only stay around helplessly.
Fortunately, the people here are simple and hospitable, and their arrival and stay do not attract much curiosity and inquiry, giving them the opportunity to rest here and recuperate their bodies and minds that are extremely tired from rushing and coping with various events along the way.
They wandered here for some time, asking around for ways to get into the mountains, and one day a woman in a black cloak approached them.
The woman asked them straight to the point if they were inquiring about the way to enter the mountain system, and said that she had a way to help them, and the condition of the deal was that they would go to a mandrill and get a letter back to her.
Although the woman's words flickered, and she refused to say anything other than the appearance of the envelope and her own handwriting, Ji Ao already knew roughly what was going on after inquiring about the mandrill's personality.
Shan Xiao is a * character, usually likes to mess with flowers and grass, and shows mercy everywhere, Ji Ao thought to himself, those women have eye problems, they actually like such a scumbag, why don't they take a fancy to me? Yan'er thought to herself, how can this guy be as virtuous as Han Ji Ao? Li Yao thought to herself, it turns out that this guy is as lustful as Ji Ao! Obviously, this woman should be one of the list of mandrill hunters.
After the woman fell in love with the mandrill, of course, they broke up according to the regular ending, and the woman once wrote him a fiery love letter, which is still in his hands.
Probably after the relationship faded, the letter became a piece of waste paper, and both parties had long forgotten about it.
The reason why the woman remembered now, and was bent on destroying the letter, was because she had a new marriage contract, which the family had made for her.
The man of this marriage is the eldest son of the patriarch of a large family, the family is strong, and it is not something that a small family like the woman can climb, he suddenly proposed to her, and insisted on hiring her as a wife, and the elders in her clan were flattered, and almost agreed for her without thinking.
