Chapter 42: Preparation
Soon, Mei Xue passed the news here to Muqiu Mansion through the communication array on the jade pendant, I believe that it will not be long before she receives a reply, and the most important thing now is to protect Jiang Rou'er and Luo Yan.
When Jiang Rou'er was communicating, she heard that there were killers from Qingfeng City who were following them all the way nearby, if Luo Yan and Jiang Rou'er hadn't escaped by luck before, now she estimated that only Jiang Rou'er's body could be found.
"What kind of cultivation do those people have?"
Mei Xue only knew that someone was chasing and killing before, and she didn't ask much at the time, but now that she is free, she wants to know more information, so that she can protect the two of them more safely in the future.
"It's all martial arts cultivation, and it's estimated that it's only one or two, otherwise there won't be a chance for us to escape."
Jiang Rou'er thought for a moment and replied.
In the next period of time, Luo Yan could only listen to the communication between the two, he didn't have a chance to interject at all, whether it was his own cultivation or Jiang Rou'er's cultivation, for those people, it seemed powerless.
Besides, he is not as familiar with those people as Jiang Rou'er, and now he has only been in contact with them once, and when he is still being hunted down, he really doesn't know what kind of cultivation the other party is, except for seeing it clearly.
Jiang Rou'er told everything she knew, and after Mei Xue analyzed it, she made a plan, intending to let Luo Yan use it as bait to lure these people out.
Then Jiang Rou'er reappeared and lured them out separately, Mei Xue chose a group with fewer personnel, and the easy ones to deal with were cleaned up first, and then went to support the other side.
No matter how reluctant Luo Yan was to this plan, he didn't have any way, his cultivation was low, and now he had to rely on them to get out of here, it can be said that he was under the roof and had to bow his head.
After the plan was agreed, Mei Xue asked them to return to the cave where they had rested before, where it was undoubtedly the best place to recover, and Mei Xue followed all the way, trying to hide her existence so as not to startle the snake.
Along the way, it was quite peaceful, except for a few beasts that suddenly appeared, there were no major problems, at least the two of them returned to the location of the cave safe and sound.
Mei Xue also appeared at this time, she went down first to see if there was any situation in the cave, and after making sure that everything was safe, she let Luo Yan and the others walk in.
Luo Yan looked at this quite reliable eldest sister, and his heart suddenly felt a lot more relieved, at least much more reliable than Jiang Rou'er. This caution alone is not comparable to Jiang Rouer.
"You guys have a good rest here first, I'll go out and hunt some prey, and let you have a good meal tonight." Saying that, Mei Xue is about to leave the cave.
However, Luo Yan stopped her.
"Sister Xue, it's okay, we still have grilled fish here, I just caught it today, you can use this to satisfy your hunger first, and the specific things will be talked about until we catch them."
Luo Yan didn't want Mei Xue to go out, first, he had a master, so he naturally didn't want the other party to leave, plus that group of people could appear around here at any time, once they discovered Mei Xue's existence, it was estimated that they would not be easily fooled.
Hearing this, Mei Xue probably guessed that Luo Yan didn't want to make extraneous branches, glanced at the young man, then nodded, agreed, and then sat down at the entrance of the cave, looking like she wanted to keep vigil for the two of them.
Luo Yan took out the grilled fish from his storage ring, set up a fire, and quickly fished the fish while it was still dark, so that the three of them had a good meal.
After eating the grilled fish, Mei Xue let Luo Yan and Jiang Rouer rest.
"Leave the vigil to me, you rest first, and wait until tomorrow when we are well prepared, and then go out and lure them out one by one!"
When Mei Xue said this, Luo Yan obviously saw the killing intent in the other party's eyes.
He could only nod silently and then rested.
For Mei Xue, Luo Yan can't say that he has absolute trust, but there is no way at present, Mei Xue has cultivated too much to him, and once there is a conflict, it is still a question of whether he can survive a round.
Jiang Rouer trusted the other party so much, Luo Yan had to trust, and now that the other party was sitting at the door again, if the other party really wanted to attack them, in the current situation, there was no escape.
The cave is so big that you can't run, and there is a cliff outside, so there is only a dead end to jump.
Instead of thinking about whether this Mei Xue treats them sincerely, it is better to have a good rest, if there is really an accident, enough energy can still help them.
Luo Yan immediately stopped hesitating and rested.
And Jiang Rouer wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mei Xue's look. Mei Xue knew that Jiang Rouer was worried about her, and she had been traveling for a few days, and she really needed to rest.
The current situation can't let her rest assured, this night is the most dangerous, she couldn't take good care of Jiang Rou'er before, but now that she has the opportunity, she naturally has to behave.
"Your rest is the greatest help to me." Mei Xue said softly.
Hearing this, Jiang Rou'er nodded, and then rested.
The next morning, Luo Yan woke up slowly, he raised his head to see if Mei Xue was still keeping vigil, and saw Jiang Rou'er leaning against the stone wall at the entrance of the cave at this time, looking half-asleep.
The body is like a tumbler, with the swing of the head, the body also swings, but it can't fall down.
Turning his head, Luo Yan saw that Mei Xue was resting on Jiang Rou'er's blanket at this time, it seemed that Jiang Rou'er should have gotten up in the middle of the night to replace Mei Xue.
"Silly girl, how shrewd are you?" Luo Yan smiled bitterly, then picked up his blanket and put it behind Jiang Rou'er, and then gently pushed Jiang Rou'er down and put it on the blanket.
Jiang Rou'er, who was still asleep, felt the changes in her body, opened her eyes suddenly, and saw Luo Yan looking at herself, without any hesitation, she slapped out.
"Smack!"
"Lean ......"
Luo Yan felt the pain on his face, scolded, and then hurriedly shut up again, glanced at Mei Xue, and found that the other party had a posture of waking up, so he immediately made a silent gesture to Jiang Rou'er and pointed at Mei Xue.
Seeing this, Jiang Rouer hurriedly covered her mouth, glanced at Mei Xue in a panic, and found that the other party had a posture of waking up, and immediately her breathing slowed down a lot, and she didn't dare to gasp for breath.
When Mei Xue lost her reaction and fell asleep again, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Rou'er glared at Luo Yan, and swiped her eyes up and down twice, meaning what are you doing so close to me.
In order to avoid disturbing Mei Xue again, Luo Yan bent down, and his body was already about to stick to Jiang Rou'er, which suddenly made the girl's face flush with a touch of crimson.
Seeing this, Luo Yan almost laughed, this was too shy, he just wanted to explain, he didn't dare to delay, for fear of being really misunderstood, he immediately leaned down next to Jiang Rou'er's earlobe, which was already red and hot at this time, and said softly:
"Seeing that you are too tired, I am ready to help you and let you lie down and rest, who knows that you wake up and come up and slap me, do you know what I feel like?"
After that, Luo Yan got up, finished speaking, the misunderstanding was solved, and there was nothing left, he would just guard the door of the cave here, so that they could rest in peace.
Jiang Rou'er here already understood what was going on at this time, and the crimson on her face not only did not go down, but became a little redder, like a ripe apple.
This time it wasn't because of any shyness, but because of guilt, I felt that I didn't agree with each other, so I slapped Luo Yan in the face, the key is that the other party still thinks about her, which makes her even more uncomfortable.
Looking at Luo Yan's back, she felt that Luo Yan was really good except for his low cultivation.
Luo Yan didn't know what Jiang Rou'er thought, he sat at the door of the cave, looking at the scenery outside, but there was another scenery in his heart.
He is making plans for the future, out of here, he must work hard to improve his cultivation, and now the spirit stone is just needed for him, and he can not need it for the time being.
In short, the spirit stone was just an item he used to disguise when he broke through, and it was not in much demand.
Maybe it is not impossible to help Jiang Rou'er recapture Qingfeng City this time, and have the opportunity to get some gifts from the other party. With Jiang Rou'er's kind heart, he felt that as long as he really helped Jiang Rou'er, he would be covered by someone when he came to Qingfeng City in the future.
However, the premise of all this is that their foreign aid can arrive quickly, they can successfully escape, and recapture Qingfeng City.
Only then will everything be possible.
After waiting for an hour, Mei Xue woke up, and after a few people had a brief meal, they started to act.
Luo Yan walked in the front, his eyes constantly observing the surroundings, if he hadn't been forced to be a bait, he wouldn't have appeared here so blatantly.
He didn't make the decision, which would only frustrate their plans.
Glancing at the second daughter hiding behind, Luo Yan shook his head helplessly, pretending to be separated from Jiang Rou'er, with a panicked expression on his face.
Luo Yan didn't shout, that seemed too fake, he felt that if those people on the other side had a little brain, they wouldn't be fooled like this.
He pretended to be flustered, and looked a little more realistic.
"Sister Xue, does this really work?" Jiang Rou'er looked at Luo Yan, who was walking faster and faster in front of her, and couldn't help but ask, after all, she didn't know if these people were still here.
"I don't know, it depends on luck, it's all gambling." Mei Xue shook her head, she was not sure, Luo Yan and Jiang Rou'er provided too little information, she could only speculate one or two.
Then rely on this speculation to practice, and whether it can be done depends on luck.
Hearing this, Jiang Rouer felt very unreliable, but she didn't say it, after all, what Mei Xue was saying, she was also their helper, how could anyone squeeze out the helper?
Immediately, she still asked, "Is Luo Yan's safety guaranteed?" I don't want him to be poisoned by those people because of us. ”
Looking at the worried Jiang Rou'er, Mei Xue nodded lightly and said, "Don't worry, you said that his cultivation is not high, but he has a lot of experience, just through this observation, he is definitely capable of surviving." ”
This is a little unreliable, Jiang Rou'er shook her head when she heard this, she didn't know what to say, so she stared at Luo Yan tightly, afraid that because of their chatter, Luo Yan would have some accidents.
Mei Xue glanced at Jiang Rou'er, then looked at Luo Yan who was walking in front, and sighed in her heart, "Rou'er, you are still difficult to be kind, but I don't know that it is this kindness that has harmed you!" ”
She didn't care about Luo Yan's life, protecting Jiang Rou'er was the main purpose, Luo Yan dared to use it as bait, and she was already ready to sacrifice Luo Yan.
"Boy, it's all up to your strength or luck." Mei Xue stared at Luo Yan's back, her face was expressionless, and after staying on Luo Yan's body for a few seconds, she looked elsewhere.
Luo Yan, who was walking in front, didn't know what the two behind him thought, if he knew what Mei Xue thought, let alone being a bait here, he would have the heart to run.
He can't use the Restraint Decision, but he can still rely on this to clearly feel the changes in the aura around him.
He carefully felt the situation around him, so as not to lose his life because of his carelessness.
After walking for an hour, Luo Yan didn't feel the breath of other martial cultivators, and Mei Xue and Jiang Rou'er behind him didn't feel it either, Fen Fen wondered if these people had already left here and returned to Qingfeng City.
"Sister Xue, do they know about your coming?" Jiang Rou'er asked.
Mei Xue knew who Jiang Rou'er meant by "they", shook her head slightly, and then said softly: "I guess I don't know, my identity was kept secret when I came, and basically no one will know." Even if they knew, these people were just cannon fodder, and those people wouldn't care about their lives or deaths. ”
"Rather than calling them back one by one and startling them, it would be better to let these people stay here, at least it will become a kind of confusion, so that we can't guess their minds."
Mei Xue analyzed it and felt that this possibility was still relatively large.
