Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Dragon Egg with Its Own Aura
"After the man who was traveling with me was caught by the demon wolf, I took the opportunity to find a hole in the tree and hid."
"Later, I went to the meeting point of the demon hunting group, but I never waited for anyone to come." Said the vendor.
Looking at the vendor in front of him, Ye Feng was also helpless, this little girl was indeed stupid enough, people used her as bait, and she believed it stupidly.
"And how did you survive after all this time?"
Looking at the ragged and thin vendor in front of him, Ye Feng still couldn't imagine how she could live so long in this Tianmai Mountain.
"After the demon wolf left, I found this from that man." The vendor stretched out his hand and revealed a dark green stone ring.
"There's a lot of food in there, and some monster materials."
"I waited at the meeting point for five days, but I still didn't see anyone coming, so I started walking back the way I came."
"But on the way, he was chased by a wild boar and lost, and finally hid in a rock crevice for three days before the wild boar left." The peddler whispered.
"Later, when I found the way, the food had already been eaten, and I don't know how long I walked, and I lost the strength in my body, so I found a hole in the tree and hid in it, and then it was what had just happened......
As he spoke, the vendor's stomach began to rumble.
Ye Feng took out some food and water and handed it over, the vendor didn't hesitate, took it and devoured it, obviously he had been hungry for a long time.
The two chatted until dawn, during which Ye Feng also learned that this vendor's name is Su Mo, and everyone else calls her Su Mei, who is only one year younger than Ye Feng, and only went to the demon hunting group as an entourage when she was helpless, just to be able to survive, but having said that, she was just used as a tool by the demon hunting group, and she was a bait when the demon hunting group traveled, and after returning to the city, she would be forced to sell monster materials for the demon hunting group, and she could only eat a few steamed buns every day, not to mention seven or eight children like her.
Ye Feng is also deeply sympathetic to what happened to those children, but he doesn't have the ability to help them, at least not now.
After dawn, Ye Feng wanted to send her back to the city, but Su Mo didn't really want to go back, instead of going back to live like that, she wanted to follow Ye Feng who saved her life in front of her.
At first, Ye Feng was reluctant, and the Grim Reaper didn't approve either, because Ye Feng himself might not be able to take care of himself, let alone take a weak little girl.
But Su Mo cried and said that even if he went back, he would still be like this one day, instead of working for the demon hunting group, it was better to work for Ye Feng, who saved him.
Ye Feng was soft-hearted, and finally responded, and the god of death was also quite helpless.
As soon as the sky was slightly bright, the two of them set off towards the periphery of Tianmai Mountain, and when they left, they saw that Su Mo's clothes were thin, and Ye Feng also gave Su Mo a few pieces of clothes that he had changed.
Under the leadership of Su Mo, the two soon entered the periphery of Tianmai Mountain.
"You are like a living map...... Looking at Su Mo on the side, Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh with emotion, if he let himself walk towards this periphery alone, I am afraid he will have to take a lot of detours.
"I've been in with the demon hunters many times, and I'm still very familiar with the terrain on the periphery."
"How? I'm still somewhat useful, right? Su Mo laughed quietly.
"Well, the further you go, the more monsters there should be, if you really encounter it, you try to stay away, I don't have the confidence that I can protect you." Ye Feng admonished.
"Hmm." Su Mo nodded in response, this is the first time that someone cares about her like this, in the demon hunting group, no one will care about the life or death of the entourage.
Su Mo cautiously followed behind Ye Feng, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, although he didn't know why this was the case.
The two of them had never encountered a single monster until noon, not to mention Ye Feng, even Su Mo felt a little abnormal.
"It's strange, this perimeter shouldn't be so deserted." Su Mo said that she had followed the demon hunting group many times in this periphery, and every time she would encounter a lot of monsters on the road, but now, she couldn't see a single monster.
"This Tianmai Mountain is famous for monsters, all kinds of powerful monsters emerge in endlessly, and there are many of them, there are no monsters at the foot of the mountain, but there is not a single monster in this periphery, which is indeed a bit incredible." Ye Feng responded, in this situation, it always feels like something is going to happen, but I hope it's just luck.
"Don't you notice?" Death spoke suddenly.
"What?" Ye Feng was puzzled.
"I've been following all the way, and from the moment I entered the mountain in the morning, there have been more and more monsters around, and they seem to be following you." Death said.
"What?" Ye Feng exclaimed, he hadn't seen a single monster, and he hadn't even heard any movement.
Ye Feng looked around, causing Su Mo on the side to feel more curious.
"What are you looking at?" Su Mo also looked in the direction that Ye Feng was looking at.
"Oh, it's nothing, hurry up and eat, and rest for a while, let's continue on our way." Ye Feng turned his head and smiled.
"Hmm." Su Mo continued to nibble on the baked cake in his hand.
"Speaking of which, you don't know how to sense soul qi yet."
"Let's take this opportunity to learn." Death said.
"Hmm." Ye Feng responded.
"You should know that there is soul energy in this air, right?" Death asked.
"Well, when the soul energy is depleted, it is necessary to absorb the soul energy in the air to recover." Ye Feng replied.
"Very well, then did you know that any wind and grass will affect the flow of soul energy in the air?" Death said.
"Well, I didn't think about it." Ye Feng replied.
"Weak as the wind, as strong as the soul technique, the stronger the soul qi, the greater the impact on the soul qi in the air, why don't you try it?" Death said.
Ye Feng closed his eyes and seriously felt the soul qi around him, but he seemed to be in a darkness, and he didn't feel anything around him.
But as time passed, in the darkness, Ye Feng seemed to see wisps of transparent air currents, and these air currents traveled with the wind, although they closed their eyes, they could indeed be clearly felt.
The air flow passed by Ye Feng's side, not far from the right, the air flow seemed to hit something, split into two and turned into two air currents, Ye Feng concentrated on feeling the object in the dark, a big tree composed of green soul energy slowly emerged in the darkness, and the soul energy in the air became clearer, and it could even be seen that a little soul energy in the air was actually absorbed by the big tree.
In half an hour, Ye Feng could almost feel anything within a radius of more than ten meters, even if a leaf fell on the ground, Ye Feng could clearly feel it.
Further away, at a distance of about forty to sixty meters, Ye Feng felt a mass of soul qi of different shapes and strengths, and this number was at least twenty or thirty.
Ye Feng opened his eyes suddenly, and looked at the place where he sensed the soul qi with some horror, and sure enough, he found a demon wolf staring at him, too far away, if it weren't for the fact that he sensed the soul qi, Ye Feng would really be difficult to find.
Looking at the other side, about fifty meters, there was a giant bird that was one person tall on the tree, and there were monsters in various other places, Ye Feng had found out the location, and these monsters, Ye Feng had not found one before!
Among these monsters, most of them are mid-to-high-level ordinary beasts, which can be dealt with by Ye Feng now, but the problem is that there are actually two mysterious beasts among them!
Ye Feng sighed softly, in this case, the first thing he began to worry about was Su Mo in front of him, if that group of monsters swarmed up, if he tried his best, he could still protect himself, but Su Mo ......
"Don't think about these useless things, if these monsters wanted to do it, they would have rushed over a long time ago." Death said.
"I followed the road but didn't dare to come forward, I am afraid that something attracts them, but it makes them afraid......"
"Scaly eggs?!" All Ye Feng could think of was the scales behind him.
"It should be it, but in this case, there is a good chance that the cub in this egg will be a dragon beast." Death said.
After all, the dragon beast is the overlord of the monsters, and its soul energy has a fatal attraction to other monsters, so there will be the residual soul energy of the mother beast on the egg table, and it is the soul energy of the mother beast that deters the monsters who want to get close to the dragon egg.
"Then this egg, isn't it my talisman in this Tianmai Mountain?" Ye Feng said.
"Not really, the monsters under the monsters have not yet become self-conscious, and only act by instinct, so they don't dare to approach this egg, but the monsters above the monsters already have the ability to think for themselves, for them, this egg is a great supplement, once you perceive this soul energy, I am afraid it will bring you death." Death said.
"Killing?!"
"On the periphery of this Tianmai Mountain, there shouldn't be a monster of this level, right?" Ye Feng asked back weakly.
"If there is, it is impossible for a monster of that level to appear behind you within a radius of more than ten miles, high-level monsters have a strong sense of territory, and weaker monsters will never dare to step into the territory of monsters stronger than themselves." Death replied.
"That's fine......" Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief instantly.
"Sister Su, let's go."
Ye Feng stood up and said.
On the side, Su Mo, who was leaning against the tree and was about to fall asleep, immediately woke up after hearing Ye Feng's voice, and hurriedly stood up and replied, "Okay." ”
Su Mo patted the dust on her clothes and hurriedly followed behind Ye Feng, this was the first time she had worn such good clothes, although it was men's clothing......
Ye Feng looked around as he walked, and sure enough, when he began to move, the monsters that followed behind him also moved, but they still didn't dare to get too close to Ye Feng, especially the big bird, every time he flew, it was only two or three meters away, for fear that he would fly close and be discovered by Ye Feng.
"This dragon egg is really a treasure...... Ye Feng said with joy in his heart, with this dragon egg, wouldn't it be possible to walk sideways on the periphery of this Tianmai Mountain? There's no need to worry about being attacked by monsters.
The two wandered around the periphery of Tianmai Mountain unscrupulously, and it was not until evening that they found a suitable place to rest and settle down.
