Chapter 12: The Forest on a Moonlit Night
A few people packed up and continued on their way. There was no word at the moment, and it was not until the moontop treetops that a few people crossed the mountain.
Everyone was faintly sweating, and as soon as they found a place to put their things and luggage, they sat on the ground to rest. Sitting on a high place and looking into the distance, by the moonlight, I can see a lush forest at the bottom of the mountain, and I can't see the edge at a glance.
On one side is a high cliff, natural and magical, like a city wall stretching straight into the distance. The road in front of you leads to the bottom of the cliff, and the direction is to go all the way to the bottom of the cliff.
Although it was dark now, the moonlight was bright, and the quiet light illuminated the vision ahead. It gives the forest a silvery white glow, which looks charming and mysterious.
Occasionally, a breeze blows, and the treetops rise and fall regularly, surging into the distance like waves, which is refreshing. After everyone stopped to watch for a while, they each chose an open terrain and prepared to camp on the spot to rest.
You didn't have a trace, and it was interesting to see the rockback beast lying there lazily, so he stepped forward to take a closer look. I didn't want the beast but didn't appreciate it, and before You Wuxian arrived, it suddenly rubbed up and stared at You Wuxian vigilantly, breathing heavily.
Frightened, You Wuxian didn't dare to move, and the young man accompanying Boss Ao quickly tightened its reins and appeased it twice. Turning his head and grinning, he said to You Wuxian with a smile: "Little master, don't be afraid, our fat radish will not hurt people, but it is highly vigilant when encountering people." Don't stare at its eyes, come and touch its ears, it won't be afraid of you when it's familiar with you. Give it a try!"
You Wuxian was happy: "It turns out that this big guy still has a name, 'fat radish'? It's really interesting~" At the moment, he also followed his words and no longer looked at his eyes. With his head down, he slowly walked up to the rockback beast and slowly touched the back of its ear.
This big guy is big, with a strong body, and the roots of his ears are soft. You Wuxian stroked it for a while, and slowly felt that the "fat radish" didn't seem to be so nervous, and the tense muscles all over his body were slowly relaxing.
It seemed to feel that there was no hostility when it went out without a trace, and finally it simply "tom", lay on the ground to rest, and then ignored You without a trace. You Wuxian crawled on its back for a while, and then chatted with the young man.
The two of them were the youngest in the team, and they opened up the conversation after a while. The boy was an orphan, and he didn't even have a name when he picked it up, so he took his adoptive mother's surname "Ji". His adoptive mother is an old maid in Boss Ao's family and has been with the Ao family for a lifetime.
The accompanying man is also an orphan, surnamed "Ji", and everyone in the family calls him Brother Ji. However, Brother Ji came to Boss Ao's house to beg for a living when he was young, and when the old man saw that he was pitiful and hardworking, he took him in.
Listening to Ji Xiaozi's words, this Ao shopkeeper, that is, Ao Zhentian's family, had a big business at the beginning, and was one of the richest people in Anhua City. But in recent decades, almost all merchants have fallen into the middle of the road, if nothing else, mainly because the world is not peaceful.
When the family business was taken over by Boss Ao, the Ao family was left with only an empty Nuo Dadi mansion. He also had to take frequent personal risks to run the business. I've earned some energy back!
Ao Zhentian is the master of the family, he has a grandfather on his head, and he has a six-year-old daughter called: Ao Minglian. In addition to the lady, there are some maids and men at home.
Ao Zhentian was doing business for the last time this time, because the road was becoming more and more dangerous, and he didn't dare to continue to take risks. This time, not only did the cloth and satin be pulled in the car, but there were also some valuables at the bottom of the box, but it was inconvenient to reveal them to You Wuji.
Of course, this includes a lot of factors, and You Wuxian doesn't care. Their route this time was a relatively safe route that had been planned, so they didn't ask the master to accompany them. Which Cheng thought that he still encountered this kind of thing. "I'm glad I met you two masters, otherwise my life would really be in danger......" After Ji Xiaozi finished speaking, he arched his hand and thanked him.
This Ji boy doesn't seem to be very old, but he has seen a lot of the world, and he is very clever and can speak. At that moment, he talked about some thrilling things that he had encountered on the way to business with the old man in the past, and when it came to the interesting points, the two of them couldn't help laughing.
You Wuxian smiled and smiled, but his heart twitched violently, and he couldn't help but think of Brother Bian. Slowly stopped smiling at the moment, the Ji boy didn't seem to notice, and was still talking to himself. Suddenly, the eyes of the two of them lit up, and before they could react, there was darkness in front of them......
At that moment, the two of them didn't look around, it turned out that Brother Ji was taking advantage of this gap and was preparing to make a fire to cook. As soon as he took out the fire fold and blew it up, he was taken away by the quick-eyed Chuan Ye.
Chuan Ye said solemnly: "The terrain here is empty and the visibility is wide. If you have a little fire, you can see it for more than ten miles. I'm afraid I'm going to have to provoke something unclean!"
Brother Ji was stunned, touched his head and smiled: "I don't see that everyone has been on the road for a day, and they are all hungry!
Boss Ao on the side waved his hand and took over the conversation and said: "When you go out, it's always good to be careful, it's right to listen to Chuan Ye, don't make a fire." Didn't you buy some food in the town in front of you early this morning? Take it out and divide it, and you'll be in a hurry tomorrow. If you don't have anything to eat on the road, you can make a plan, and there are many people who always want to find a way. ”
Brother Ji nodded: "Yes, master!" reflexively took out a large package of oilpaper wrapped things from the luggage backpack and distributed them one by one. In the end, what was sent to You Wuxian and Ji Xiaozi was a piece of meat bun and dried beef pieces for one person, as well as some water.
After walking for most of the day, almost all of them were already hungry, and they started unceremoniously at the moment. You Wuxian took the meat bun in his hand, smelling the intoxicating aroma, and his stomach had already screamed.
The fragrant dried beef was marinated, and it was like a delicacy to him at this moment to have such a stomach outside this wilderness. Maybe You Wuxian originally followed the master, and he has always been very good at food, so he held these things in his hand, and he couldn't resist the temptation, and he swept them all away.
In the end, You Wuxian took a sip of water, smacked his lips unsatisfactorily, and burped in satisfaction. Only Boss Na Ao didn't seem to be used to this kind of food, and only ate a little bit.
After everyone had eaten, Boss Ao discussed some matters with Master You and Master Chuan. Agree that one person will keep an hour, so that there will be plenty of time and everyone can have a good rest.
After the arrangement, Brother Ji volunteered to stay on the first shift, and everyone had no opinion, so Boss Ao climbed into the car by himself, pulled a thin blanket and fell asleep. The others also found a clean place on their own, pulled out their windbreakers and clothes, and slept on.
You Wuxian was well-fed, and it was extremely comfortable to sleep in a sheltered robe, and he fell asleep after a while.
This sleep was extraordinarily sweet, but the good times didn't last long, and the time of touching the appointment was an hour, and he was woken up by a long and short snoring~
You Wuxian turned his head and saw that Brother Ji was already sleeping not far away on his back at the moment, and the vigil had been replaced by a young man on Chuan Ye's side. This old brother has no image to speak of when he sleeps, although the snoring is not loud, but it is like a mosquito drilling straight into his ears, and he can't beat it.
I continued to turn my head to look left and right, and saw that everyone seemed to be completely unaffected and fell asleep peacefully. The master also slept on his back as usual, holding the Demon God Mirror in his arms, and holding a strange seal knot in his hand.
You Wuxian looked at the moon, it was really late, and he forced himself to sleep. It's just that the snoring sound is long and short, and I woke up again as soon as I felt sleepy, and I couldn't help but be depressed.
Finally, when sleepiness hit, the snoring seemed to slowly begin to fade out of his ears. At this time, there was a different light sound from the snoring. It's just that the sound is very subtle, and You Wuxian thought it was an illusion at first, but it didn't take long to find that the sound was getting clearer and clearer.
You Wuxian slept on his side, his ears on the ground. After listening carefully for a while, I finally heard clearly, this is obviously the sound of something moving!
When you open your eyes suddenly, you have to stand up. But I found that the master on the other side didn't know when he woke up, and the master wrapped the bronze mirror in his hand tightly in his palm, revealing a trace of edge, shining with a faint silver light in the bright moonlight.
Master You stared straight at You Wuxian and shook his head without a trace. You Wuxian comprehended, and his half-supported body slowly relaxed, and he fell asleep anew. Listen carefully to the movement, only to realize that the movement is coming from below.
He couldn't help but glance quietly at the place below his feet, which was where Brother Ji slept. The latter was snoring unnoticed, and a dark figure was silently approaching him. Looking at the form of the shadow, it looks like a beast corpse!
The night watchman was shrugging his head and drowsy at the moment, completely out of vigilance, this is bad! You Wuxian thought so, and looked at the others again. That Chuan Ye was sleeping with a knife, and as soon as You Wuxian's gaze fell on him, he seemed to be alert at the same time, and opened his eyes suddenly!
However, Chuan Ye quickly analyzed the situation, and slowly relaxed, but his hand quietly touched the position of the knife handle, and waited for the changes.
The beast corpse seemed to be attracted by the snoring sound, and went to Brother Ji alone. Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, You Wuxian couldn't help but be so anxious that his head began to sweat, but Master and they hadn't moved.
Chuan Ye accompanied him and a dart master slept next to him, and the two of them slept on top of their heads. But this man is still young, and he seems to be not very alert, and he is sleeping soundly at the moment.
Chuan Ye raised the knife, and the handle of the knife poked at the other party's head, meaning that he wanted him to wake up. Unexpectedly, the boy sat up nervously, and began to scramble to find the knife, and his mouth was still indistinctly exclaiming: "What's wrong?!"......
This startled instantly woke up all the rest of the people. The old brother snorted, sat up softly, rubbed his eyes, and was still muttering in his mouth, as if he was dissatisfied that someone had disturbed his dream.
As soon as he took his hand away, he was stunned: the moonlight was bright, and he could see clearly, and there was a nightmarish face facing him across his crotch! The beast corpse was also stunned by the sudden commotion, but it quickly reacted and pounced viciously on Brother Ji.
This animal moves extremely fast, and it is too late for Ren Chuan Ye and them to move fast. As soon as the beast corpse stretched out its claws, it grabbed Brother Ji's foot with one hand, and pulled it back with a slight pull. is also a loss, and the big brother has a thick body, and in front of the beast corpse, he is like a chicken being carried!
In this way, Brother Ji and the beast corpse collided with each other~ Brother Ji opened his eyes wide and looked at a terrifying face close at hand, smelling a disgusting breath, and rolled his eyes in fright. Busy instinctively spread out his hands to push, and the beast corpse also opened its bloody mouth to meet it......
Seeing that Brother Ji was about to die in the mouth of the zombie, at the last moment, everyone only heard the sound of the wind~ A thing flew into Brother Ji's outstretched palms impartially, flicked it and fell into his arms. The beast corpse bounced off as quickly as an electric shock in an instant, jumped far away, and yelled at Brother Ji, but he didn't dare to approach anymore.
Brother Ji lowered his head tremblingly, and found that what he was in his arms was a demon god mirror! Fortunately, Master You was in a hurry, otherwise he would have to give an account of his life again!
At this time, Master You and Master Chuan took the lead and stood in front of everyone. The beast corpse did not come forward again, but turned to the woods with a strange and regular cry, and then lingered in place, glaring at the crowd viciously.
Master You exclaimed: "It's not good! it's summoning the same kind, if there are too many of them, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with them......" Before he finished speaking, the call of beasts came from not far away. Sounds like a lot!
Master You said urgently: "Brother Chuan, you quickly leave this place with everyone and my apprentices, and I will resist the queen for you." Hurry!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't ignore the reactions of the crowd. Drawing the knife with his backhand, he bent down and copied the Demon God Mirror in Brother Ji's arms in his hand, and pounced towards the beast corpse like a gust of wind......
