Chapter 44: Ten Thousand Beasts Academy
Back on the ground, both of them were lying on the ground, gasping for breath, and the continuous fight and escape made both of them exhausted!
Struggling to sit up, Chen Mo looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "Why don't these stone eaters attack you, and still listen to you?"
"Because they're all my friends!" replied the woman, of course.
"But why do they want to kill us both?!" complained the little fat man.
"That's because you two have invaded their territory, and trampled on their homes! Of course they will attack you!" The woman didn't fork her words, "I said who are you two children? Do you know where this is, this is the Great Wilderness of Western Xinjiang! A two-toothed beast spirit master, a one-toothed beast spirit master, dare to come here?! If it weren't for the chance that I came out of Cloud Underworld City and passed by here, you would definitely die here!"
"I said it, we're here to find someone!" Chen Mo stood up and stretched out his hand, "Don't you know the person on the portrait?"
The woman groaned for a moment, did not hand the portrait back to Chen Mo, pointed to the two stone eaters and said, "You two, stand on them, come with me!"
Chen Mo and Mantou glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and according to what the woman said, stood on the body of the stone eater, and the woman saw that the two of them did so, turned around, and walked towards the depths of the wilderness.
The speed of the rock-devouring ant colony under the feet was fast, and the two of them followed closely behind the woman, walking on the ground in the bushes, even if they entered the swamp area, there was no slightest obstacle, as the three of them slowly went deeper, there were three or three spirit beasts on the road, and the breath fluctuations had reached more than the second order! But after seeing the woman, they were very quiet, did not come forward to attack, and automatically avoided a road.
After about thirty minutes of rapid progress, the woman's footsteps gradually slowed down, and finally stopped at a cliff, Chen Mo and the others got off the body of the stone eater ant and looked at the woman for some reason.
Looking around, unconsciously, the three of them had left the bush area, and as far as the eye could see, the terrain in front of them was potholed, there was no grass, and there was a steep cliff in front of them, and the bottom of the cliff was black and dark, and nothing could be seen.
"You two are waiting here, lend me the portrait first!" The woman turned around and said, she walked forward, jumped slightly, and disappeared all of a sudden, Chen Mo rushed forward, there was a cave under the ground that was just the size of a person, and it was really hard to see if you didn't look closely.
"Big brother, where is this?" Mantou leaned in front of Chen Mo and asked in a low voice, "Who is this woman? She won't bring us here to harm us!"
Chen Mo shook his head and said firmly, "No, if she wanted to harm us, she wouldn't have rescued us from the swamp just now, and when I mentioned the 'Ten Thousand Beasts Academy', the look on her face showed that she must have known, or at least heard of it! Let's just wait here quietly!"
After a quarter of an hour, when both of them were a little impatient, the woman jumped out of the cave and came to the two of them, the wariness on her face disappeared, and she smiled and said, "Welcome to the Academy of Ten Thousand Beasts!, please follow me!" and turned around, and jumped down from the cave again.
Chen Mo and Mantou glanced at each other, both saw the surprise in each other's eyes, both nodded, and followed behind the woman, Chen Mo jumped down from the cave first!
The sense of whereabouts did not last long, Chen Mo's feet fell to the ground, and when he looked up, there was a long cave in front of him, and the woman was standing beside her, holding a lamp in her hand, looking at herself with a smile.
"Oops!" There was a plop, and the steamed bun also fell to the ground, but because of lack of preparation, he fell on his back to the sky, stood up, rubbed his buttocks, and complained, "How can this academy be in this kind of place, how can there be an academy in a cave!"
The woman covered her mouth and chuckled, "Don't complain, come with me, the Lord wants to see you!"
Following the woman, the three of them walked down the crooked cave into the depths.
After a few turns, the three of them walked out of the cave, and their eyes suddenly opened up, the woman extinguished the light in her hand, and Chen Mo and the two were stunned in place.
It's not because of fright, but the scenery in front of you is too beautiful! This is a dense forest, every branch has been carefully repaired, it looks staggered, look at the foot, the road is paved with all kinds of wild flowers, although it is late at night, but the bright moonlight shines on the earth, paving a layer of silver light for all the leaves, vaguely hear a sound of insects and birds from the depths, look around, you can see many flying spirit beasts in the distance, three or two groups of flying spirit beasts in the sky.
"It's so beautiful!" the little fat man looked at everything in front of him in a daze, and muttered, "What kind of place is this!"
Seeing the staring appearance of the two of them, the woman raised her head proudly and said, "Here, this is the Academy of Ten Thousand Beasts!
Following behind the woman, along the stone path in the forest, slowly walking towards the depths of the woods, all kinds of spirit beasts can be seen everywhere on the road, although Chen Mo and the two looked around with a wary face, but none of the spirit beasts stepped forward to attack, after seeing the woman, they all slowly let go of a way and continued to sleep.
"The spirit beasts here are really amazing!" Chen Mo followed behind the woman, looking at the spirit beasts around him, his sense of identity with this place became stronger and stronger, people and spirit beasts can coexist in harmony, isn't this what he wants to pursue!
In the depths of the woods, the woman stopped, and there was a small lake in front of her, in the middle of the lake, a small island, and a wooden hut in the middle of the island, and at this time she could see the faint light in the house.
"Lord!" the woman bowed slightly, "I brought you these two children!"
"Let them in!" replied a female voice, indifferently.
The woman answered, took the two to the lake, beside a delicate little bridge, and said, "Go in, you two, and answer whatever the Lord asks, and don't lie!"
Chen Mo and the others nodded, walked across the small bridge, came to the door of the hut, pushed the door and walked in.
The décor in the hut was very simple, with a wooden table, four wooden benches, and a wooden bed, with a figure sitting on the bed with his back to the two.
Hearing the voice behind him, the figure on the bed slowly stood up, turned around, walked towards the two, and whispered, "Sit down!"
Chen Mo and the two answered, sat at the wooden table, the figure slowly came to the wooden table, and when they saw the appearance of the person, the two couldn't help but be stunned.
The woman in front of her is really so beautiful, and her elegance is peerless! Chen Mo has never seen such a beautiful woman, and her ordinary cloth clothes do not hide her charm in the slightest! But people can't tell her specific age.
"Where did you get this portrait?" the woman asked aloud as she looked at Chen Mo and the others.
