375.Those Years in the Monster Mountains (II)
The mark hit his forehead, making Qin Yan feel particularly uncomfortable, and there seemed to be a force in his body, urging him to kneel.
Qin Yan endured his nausea, knelt down with a plop, and said, "I am willing to follow the boss." β
His eyes were full of unwillingness.
All these dog saints saw it in their eyes, but they felt inexplicably happy in their hearts.
He took the initiative to pull up Qin Yan, "This is the Demon Beast Mountain Range, from the periphery of the forest to the middle, it is the territory of our extremely vicious eighteen dogs, and further inside is the territory of the Great Demon King, that is the person you can't afford to provoke, if you don't want to die, don't break in by mistake." β
"Yes, I want to live a little longer." Qin Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Dog Seven, take him to the kitchen to find some food, and when he is full, he can work and run errands for us."
The dog saint commanded, waved his hand, and said, "Don't waste time here, let's disperse." β
After everyone retreated, Gou Qi pinned the big knife to his waist and faced Qin Yan, "Let's go." Also, don't think about running away or whatever, imprint the mark of our eighteen dogs, you are the one of our eighteen dogs, and you can't escape. β
Qin Yan nodded and silently followed.
There's a lot of food in the kitchen, but it's not quite right, in short, there's no serious chef here, and the food is terrible.
There are several dishes on the table, some meat and some vegetarian, but some are too salty, some are tasteless, some are undercooked, some are too badly cooked, or even black......
"Maybe, I can try to start in the kitchen, although I haven't cooked since I was a child, but it should still be okay to cook and eat."
Qin Yan was extremely hungry and not picky, and he devoured all the food on the table with a meal, and thought slowly.
"This newcomer doesn't have a picky appetite."
"Tsk, when you come to this hellish place, it's good to have a hot meal to eat, and you still choose?"
"Also, it looks like the boss has to put up with the food cooked by Dog Twelve a little longer."
Qin Yan finished his meal and walked out of the stone house, but no one followed him all the way.
"Let's get to know the surrounding situation first, and then slowly find a way to escape......
Thinking so, Qin Yan began to hunt demon beasts.
The combat effectiveness of the demon beasts here is generally several times stronger than that of the outside world, and it took Qin Yan a lot of effort to hunt a dozen or so demon beasts, and when he returned to the stone house, he was already scarred.
"Yes, you kid is quite desperate!" Looking at the corpse of the demon beast on the ground, the eighteen dogs all cast appreciative glances at him.
"I just want to have a place here, I don't know where I came from, I just remember that I used to be a soldier, when I woke up, I was here, there seems to be a father and mother waiting for me outside, I can't die, I must be able to find a way to get out......"
Qin Yan began to slowly make up stories with the Eighteen Dogs.
Anyway, they don't know him, so they have to stand up the image of the amnesiac teenager first, and then bluff them for the time being.
"Huh, get out? If you come here, you won't be able to get out, even if you die! Sure enough, listening to Qin Yan's "heartfelt words", Eighteen Dogs believed it a little and sneered, "Instead of thinking about how to go out every day, it's better to live a real life." β
"No, I'll be able to get out. When I find the exit, we can go out together. Seeing how much they believed, Qin Yan added some naΓ―ve attributes to his character.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.
If you want to survive in this unfamiliar place, acting skills are crucial.
"Dog Twelve, deal with this monster meat and add dinner tonight."
The dog saint instructed the dog twelve, threw a small bottle of wound medicine to Qin Yan, and strode away.
It's night, and it's cloudy.
The ferocious Eighteen Dogs gathered a group of subordinates to gather on a huge floor in front of the stone house, put coarse grain wine, and Dog Twelve was responsible for roasting the meat of the Demon Beast and had a dinner.
"One, two, three, four, five...... 100, 200, 300...... Three hundred and eighty-two. β
Qin Yan stood under the eaves, helping to dispose of some of the remaining demonic beast meat in his hands, but his eyes kept sneaking a glance at the floor, counting the number of people.
"There are a total of three hundred and eighty-two people here, plus those who go out on patrol, not to mention more than four hundred people, as far as we know, most of them are extremely vicious people from various countries, and they have no way out to flee to this Demon Beast Forest.
However, some people say that he was exiled here and could not find an exit before he found a place here.
And their mana or force is not low, I heard that those who have low skills have been swallowed by the fierce beasts in the forest, and not even a soul is left, and legend has it that there is a place in the depths of this place where even the dead are not spared, it seems that it is where the great demon king lives......"
Qin Yan secretly pricked up his ears, listened to the chatter of the people around him, and inadvertently knew many things.
In the days to come, with his superb martial arts, Qin Yan was able to fight a lot of demon beasts every day, and his status in the Eighteen Dogs was also rising day by day.
Subsequently, he gradually learned to cook and rose to the next level.
Officially became the right-hand man of the boss dog saint.
The dog saint also began to tell him some secrets of the forest.
For example, after being imprinted with the mark of their eighteen dogs, you can neither betray them, nor continue to cultivate, and no matter where you hide, you can be found by them.
At that time, hearing what the dog saint said, Qin Yan was stunned.
"It's no wonder that I had a headache for several days when I tried to erase the mark before, and the eyes of those dog thieves were full of warnings when they looked at me, and every time I cultivated, my body felt like it would leak air......"
Qin Yan's eyes dimmed slightly.
"But don't be discouraged, be a dog under us, you will always be indispensable here, you better put away your ambitions.
You have also been exploring in the forest in the past few months, and you should know that if you come here, you can't get out, and the mark is also to ensure that the newcomers will not betray us eighteen dogs. β
Qin Yan's thoughts, how could the dog saint not know? Seeing that his expression changed slightly, he quickly recovered, and reminded him earnestly.
Dog Saint is a complete foodie.
In the past few months, after countless attempts, Qin Yan's cooking skills have finally far surpassed Dog Twelve, and he has become the number one in the kitchen.
This also successfully hung the stomach of the dog saint, and of course, his heart was also hanged.
Who can refuse a "subordinate" who is highly skilled and cooks deliciously.
"Yes, the subordinates must abide by their duties and do their best to do things for the boss."
Qin Yan was respectful to the dog saint, turned around and walked out of the stone house, and hid into the depths of the forest.
After months of exploring, he began to descend deeper into the forest, and even stumbled upon a very hidden cave.
It was a dark and windy night, and he was chased by a pack of wolves and fled into the stone forest, and only then did he discover this cave.
The cave is rudimentary, with nothing, but it is also spacious. Moreover, he found that after coming here, the eighteen dogs could not find him!
The first time, he stayed there for more than ten days before going out, and they didn't find him, and they said that they thought he had been swallowed by the wild beasts of the mountains!
"It's such a great place! It's a pity that I have their marks on my body, and I can't cultivate, otherwise, I might really be able to counterattack......"
Coming to the cave again, Qin Yan thought to himself.
"Whew......"
As he pondered, there was a sudden sound of a young beast whining in the cave.
"This can't be a cave for some big beasts......
Qin Yan raised his vigilance and slowly walked towards the depths of the cave.
The last time he came, he was bitten by a fierce beast and hurriedly hid in a cave, because he was wounded and not well prepared, he did not go further, but only healed himself at the mouth of the cave.
Later, when his injuries were almost healed, he immediately went back, after all, he still had the marks of eighteen dogs on his body, and he didn't want them to discover the secret base that he had found with great difficulty.
"This time, I've brought enough dry food and medicine, and it's time to go into the cave and explore......"
Thinking about it, Qin Yan clenched the big knife and continued to walk forward, and not long after he left, he smelled a pungent smell of blood!
Although the man has gold under his knees, life is still precious
