Chapter 397: Thousands of Miles to Ride Alone
Xiao Yao immediately realized that he was still wearing a human skin mask on his face, so he mistakenly called himself a senior.
Xiao Yao turned his head, tore off the human skin mask, restored his original face, and said with a smile, "I'm not a senior, I'm just a little older than you, my name is Xiao Yao, if you don't like it, just call me Brother Xiao." ”
"Brother Xiao, your martial arts are so powerful, you can actually rescue me from Zhong Qiu's hands." Yi Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said adoringly.
Xiao Yao smiled bitterly in his heart, this guy thought that he had saved him, but he didn't see the fight scene between himself and Zhong Qiu, otherwise he would never say that.
But this time, Xiao Yao was cheeky and pretended to acquiesce. This is conducive to cultivating his tall image in his mind, and perhaps it will be helpful to visit the Witch Temple in the future.
"That Zhong Qiu's martial arts are not below me, it's just that there are too many people he has to protect, so I have a chance." Xiao Yao pretended to be deep and said.
"Brother Xiao, I want to go back to Phoenix Mountain." Yi Feng asked Xiao Yao tentatively.
"Absolutely, that's exactly what I mean. is also about to rush back to Phoenix Mountain. And I'm still a guest of your witch temple, otherwise I wouldn't have risked my life to save you. Xiao Yao began to rely on the old and sell the old, pretending to be very similar.
"Great! I didn't expect Brother Xiao to be our guest, I don't know which witch god invited you? Yi Feng asked in surprise, and at the same time felt that it was a bit too much of a coincidence.
"It wasn't your Witch God Temple that invited me, it was King Miao who invited me to Phoenix Mountain to help your Witch God Temple, and I was in a hurry to go back just to participate in the Phoenix Mountain's sacrificial ceremony and tea tasting meeting." Xiao Yao replied.
Yi Feng was completely convinced by this answer, so he said, "Brother Xiao, let's leave this place as much as possible and return to Phoenix Mountain as soon as possible." It's just too dangerous here. Looking at this guy's face, he obviously still has palpitations.
"Of course I'm leaving, but I'm not familiar with this place, I just ran for my life, and I didn't know where we were now." Xiao Yao pretended to sigh and said.
"It's simple, Brother Xiao. Let's just go to the local priests and ask. Yi Feng said as it should be.
"We have offended the Yao Tusi now, and it will only be more dangerous to go to their territory rashly, we still have to rely on ourselves and rush back to Phoenix Mountain directly, and we can't delay on the road, in case the other party chases us." Xiao Yao analyzed.
Hearing Zhong Qiu's name, he saw Yi Feng shrink his neck slightly and shudder. It seems that he is very afraid of this Zhong in his heart.
"En, Brother Xiao, I listen to you, but what should we do now?" Yi Feng asked.
"Straighten up your clothes, we'll leave now." After Xiao Yao finished speaking, he took out his previous blue Miao suit and put it on Yi Feng, his current Witch God Temple cloak was too conspicuous.
The two of them sorted out their things and walked out of the cave together.
It was a small mountain, so the two of them turned around a few times and came to the bottom of the mountain.
Xiao Yao and Yi Feng returned to the path down the mountain, and at this time, it was estimated that there was still an hour before dawn, Xiao Yao did not immediately choose to continue on the mountain road.
The Zhong family and the Yao Tusi occupy the right time and place here, and they can't be like a headless fly, plus this rookie Yi Feng, who is obviously strict and lacks experience in the rivers and lakes, must be even more careful.
But Xiao Yao knew very well that this guy must be an extremely important person in the Witch God Temple, otherwise the Witch God of the Ninth Hall would not have personally come to the rescue with the Divine Beast.
Xiao Yao had learned from Hu Yiyi before that since there was no great witch god in this witch temple in recent years, the elders of the witch temple exercised the rights of the great witch god, and there were a total of nine elders in this witch temple, which were the witch gods of the nine halls, and there would be two witch gods around the witch god in the first hall, who would be responsible for helping the elder group to carry out their daily work. But the witch gods are not part of the Elders.
Therefore, the person who can let the elders come out to rescue him himself must have an important identity. Therefore, it can be seen that the importance of this Yi Feng is obvious.
This guy will be his helper in Phoenix Mountain in the future, and he decided to guide Peng Shan at the beginning, and now he is helping this Yi Feng, and the same is true.
Therefore, I must ensure his safety, and now I have no choice.
Open confrontation with the Zhong family, and deep grudge with the Wuliu faction, these are all sects with many masters, at least the strength shown now is enough for themselves to drink a pot.
If you don't pull a few helpers when you are in Miaojiang, I am afraid that you will suffer a big loss. You can't pin all your hopes on King Miao and the Poison Dragon Sect.
Xiao Yao's thoughts naturally had no way to say it directly to Yi Feng, but this guy would definitely not be a novice, he just lacked experience.
And Xiao Yao has always been curious about what this Zhong Qiu kidnapped Yi Feng for, could it be that this guy knows some big secret? Or maybe he's a superb meat ticket.
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Yao immediately took Yi Feng to find a relatively hidden place to rest, came to a simple bamboo building that was probably temporarily built by hunters, and walked in with him.
Xiao Yao asked Yi Feng to have a good rest, and then began to chat with the little monkey with the Yuan Shen.
This Yi Feng probably had a shadow in his heart about Zhong Qiu, and he was too nervous all the time along the way. I can't help but laugh in my heart, don't be scared.
Now Xiao Yao is faced with several choices, it is estimated that it is impossible to catch up with the Nine Halls Witch God who escaped before, that monitor lizard is too fast, I am afraid that they have already left this place.
I went to find the Poison Dragon Sect's rudder, but the token had already been returned to the Poison Dragon Sect's dart shop as a token, so it didn't work.
If you go to find Panjiang, then you still need to make a detour to the west, and once you are discovered by others, it will only make Panjiang in a dilemma, because of Panli's death, Panjiang probably won't have a good impression of the Witch Temple.
Then all that remains is to take this Yi Feng with him, ride a thousand miles back and forth, and escort him back to Phoenix Mountain. Moreover, Peng Shan reminded himself to be careful of King Miao, and Xiao Yao was really worried about the safety of the eldest lady. And there is also a Kangqin cha in Phoenix Mountain.
Xiao Yao took out some bacon from the package, and then lit a fire in the house, roasting the bacon while boiling some hot water, but Yi Feng had already fallen asleep on the bed, thinking that he was too nervous along the way, and he relaxed at this time, and suddenly felt sleepy.
After roasting the bacon, he called Yi Feng up.
Yi Feng, who was sleeping in a daze, woke up and smelled the fragrance of bacon, and suddenly felt sleepy.
The two of them ran around in the wet and cold forest all night, Xiao Yao was used to this kind of experience, but Yi Feng obviously had no such experience, and after eating half a catty of bacon, he fell asleep on the bed again.
Xiao Yao had secretly observed the surrounding environment. This bamboo building is only a dozen steps away from the mountain path, but it is still about a mile away from the official road under the mountain, so it is still relatively hidden.
It's just that I don't know how the Zhong family and the Yao Tusi will search for the two of them, and I don't know if these enemies will join forces to hunt down and kill them.
It wasn't until noon that Yi Feng woke up in a daze, Xiao Yao had been cultivating Xiaoyao**, and the exhaustion of his whole body had long since dissipated. The true qi that was depleted last night was all restored as before.
In addition, since he was able to communicate with the little monkey through guò Yuanshen, Xiao Yao regretted it.
This guy probably hasn't chatted with anyone for too long, and now this guy is in Xiao Yao's arms and will never come out lightly, and the Yuan Shen will not leave in Xiao Yao's consciousness, and he keeps talking about all kinds of things.
Xiao Yao endured patience and resolutely pursued the principle of not talking, and let it talk to itself there. Just because Xiao Yao talked once, this guy actually spoke for half an hour.
It is also that the content of this monkey's conversation is not nutritious, neither can it point to Xiao Yao's Bailing True Understanding, nor can it point to Xiao Yao's sword qi, the former is because the little monkey has been reincarnated too many times, and his memory has long been blurred, and it is not known when he will recover. And the latter is because the little monkey can't use sword qi at all, so there is no way to guide it.
But for which mountain in Miaojiang is delicious and where the mountain is good for winter, this guy actually remembers it clearly. Xiao Yao also had to believe its words.
The memory of being a human being is gone, but the memory of being a monkey is very clear
However, the little monkey still helped Xiao Yao solve a problem, that is, the eyeless silkworm is very likely to have something to do with Xiao Yao. Because the little monkey has always felt that the sun gold pattern on Xiao Yao's left hand is not a Bailing true solution, but a kind of Gu worm advanced poison pattern, so the reason why Wei De thinks that Xiao Yao has an eyeless silkworm on his body is probably because of this.
Xiao Yao repeatedly probed the golden texture of the palm of his left hand many times, but he never noticed anything special about it.
The little monkey couldn't put forward any constructive opinions and opinions on the recent history of Miao Jiang, such as the problem of the divine beasts in the beast den, such as the witch Gu technique of Wu Zu, such as the golden snake sword technique and the poisonous dragon palm technique.
After Xiao Yao had completely recovered his true qi and body, he decided to take Yi Feng on his way, and the top priority was to buy two horses as much as possible.
The two of them walked about a dozen miles on the official road when they saw a town between the three mountain peaks. This is also the difference between Yao District and other ethnic areas, Miao people like to live in the mountains, so many villages are built in the middle of the mountainside, but after entering the Yao District, Xiao Yao found that the mountains here in the Yao District are mostly stone mountains, and it is difficult to cultivate farmland on the mountains, so most of the towns here are built in the flat land or valleys between the mountains.
The two walked into the town, and the main street was full of people, but it was also lively.
During this period of life in Miaojiang, Xiao Yao had fully adapted to the customs of various ethnic groups in Miaojiang, and soon bought two sets of new clothes and some food from a shop, and then the two stayed in the only inn in the town.
It's a pity that the town is too small and there are no shops that specialize in selling horses, so if you don't want to wait here for a big market that only happens once every ten days, you can only buy horses in the bigger town in front of you.
After some discussion, the two decided to return to Phoenix Mountain as much as possible, and must not stay here for too long. So the two immediately decided to rush to a small town called Lushan in front of them, where there were many shops selling horses, and there were also horse gangs that would stay there.
