Chapter 13 Feiyun Mountain
"It's the last town before entering the mountain, should we go and resupply?" Yukong asked Hu Weiwei.
"I'm going to ask Your Highness. Hu Weiwei hesitated and entered the carriage, and she and Evil Lotus exchanged every time they crossed, one outside and one inside. And Yukong and the five of them, except for Yukong who was arranged to drive in this carriage, the rest followed in another carriage.
"Your Highness said, rest in the town for the night today, set off tomorrow, and if you need something, you can go and buy things yourself. Hu Weiwei quickly conveyed the meaning of the holy female candidate.
"Why do you have to take the mountain road?" Yukong suddenly asked, he had learned about the competition of the Holy Maiden of the Church of Light, and it was supposed to promote the Church of Light, why did this holy female candidate take the mountain road?
"This is not your business, just drive well!" Hu Weiwei snapped.
Yukong pursed his lips, "Who knows if you have any other purpose." Are you alive and you're being hunted down by rivals?
"If your life is in danger, you can protect yourself!" Hu Weiwei glared at Yukong and said. "There is another reason why Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden walked the mountain road, don't speculate!"
"Alright, alright! Yukong said. But he didn't see that Hu Weiwei's hands were already clenched just now, and she was very nervous.
The Holy Maiden paid for the best hotel in town.
"Why do we want to live in this kind of room!" said the man who looked at the simple two beds and the same room as Yukong.
"There is only one room left, and the conditions here are no worse than the school dormitory. It's better to get some sleep as soon as possible, I have a hunch that I won't want to get a good night's sleep until the end of the mission. Yukong said.
"There have been records of soul beasts in Feiyun Mountain for a thousand years, what are you afraid of!" the man said.
"It's better to be careful. After Yukong finished speaking, he went to bed and began to cultivate, the man looked at it, wanted to say something but didn't say anything, and quickly fell asleep.
The next morning, Yukong and the others set off directly. Although there are soul beasts in Feiyun Mountain, the range of activity is generally in the range from the depths of the mountain to the middle, and the soul beasts on the periphery are basically no more than a hundred years.
"According to the estimate, it will take us close to two months to walk through the mountains, which is still the ideal state of not encountering powerful soul beasts. Yukong said to Hu Weiwei.
Hu Weiwei nodded, "What's wrong?"
"But if you take the big road, it will only take a month at most to cross the border areas of our country. Yukong said and looked at Hu Weiwei, "Can I know why you chose to take the mountain road?"
Hu Weiwei frowned, "You just need to follow our orders and do your job." ”
"But after escorting you to the other side of Feiyun Mountain, we are in the territory of another country. We don't have a special identity to keep us safe. Yukong said.
Hu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, "We didn't think it through, so you can end the escort mission on the other side of the mountain, so that you can quickly reach the border of your country." ”
"Will Her Highness the Holy Maiden agree?" asked Yukong.
"I'll talk to Her Highness. Now concentrate on your own business!" Hu Weiwei said.
At night, Tamakura and the others set up camp around two carriages.
"Hey, how does that guard look?" asked one of his teammates.
Yukong was stunned, "What's how?"
At this time, several other people also came over, "Don't pretend you don't know! If it weren't for your young age, you think it would fall on you to drive the car for them?"
Yukong looked at their expressions and probably guessed what they meant, "What else can it be, arrogant, cold, and distant." ”
"So, have you seen the saint's true face?" asked another man.
"How could it be! I didn't even have a chance to turn back along the way, and that guy named Hu Weiwei was staring at me!" Yukong said. The saint and Yukong were wearing veils when they met, and they couldn't see their faces at all, only a pair of eyes.
"So, why did we come back then?" asked the oldest man in the line.
Yukong nodded and told them Hu Weiwei's reply.
"That's fine, just be careful when you're close to the core, and there's nothing wrong with this mission!" the eldest man breathed a sigh of relief.
After that, the journey was smooth for a while, until they entered a place close to the core area of Feiyun Mountain, and Yukong slowed down their travel speed. Not only because the terrain is not suitable for carriage travel, but also because we must always be vigilant and sneak attack with powerful soul beasts.
Because of the terrain, Yukong had already led the horse on the ground, but Hu Weiwei was still sitting in the carriage.
"There are no traces of large soul beasts in this vicinity, and we are camping here today. Before the sun set, the captain said after determining the basic situation around him.
That night, Yukong suddenly smelled a strange aroma. The original cultivation state was interrupted, and Yukong stood up directly to find the source of the aroma. Soon, he found a fist-sized cloth sac near the camp, from where the aroma emanated.
"This is, who left it here!" Yukong looked at it and came to a conclusion. Squat down and look at the ground, there is no trace of footprints. Jumping on the branches, I didn't notice anything unusual. "Is it just something that has been lost by people who have been here?"
Yukong was about to continue cultivating, but felt a vibration from the ground. Yukong hurriedly shouted, "There is a soul beast attacking! everyone, wake up!"
The others soon woke up, accustomed to the routine of living in the jungle for most of the previous month.
Fence the carriage, take out your weapons, and be ready to fight at any time.
"What's going on, there's no soul beast!" After a few minutes, the soul beast didn't appear, and the others looked at Yukong, hoping that Yukong would give them an explanation.
"I just felt a tremor from the ground. Yukong said.
"Be careful!" Before Yukong could finish speaking, the captain shouted at him.
The ground under Yukong's feet instantly collapsed into a pit, but fortunately, Yukong was reminded, and the martial soul possession directly grabbed his body with insect silk and jumped to the side.
"It's the Crypt Spider!" the others also recognized the soul beast that had attacked them. Then, there were craters in the ground all around, eight in all, and they were surrounded by crypt spiders!
"Crypt Demon Spider, the leader has been around for at least two thousand years, how could he be here!" Hu Weiwei said.
"You must be careful with your step, the best thing the Crypt Demon Spider is at dragging its prey into the crypt and killing it!" said the captain. The next moment, the Crypt Spider attacked!
