Chapter 93: Entering the Mountain

"Isn't that what you said? Sometimes you need a white lie." Qingniu replied, and a big stone was relieved in his heart. Xiang Lao left with a smile, but it relieved Qingniu of his burden. Now he is a little

Tsundere.

"My mind is spinning very fast. I was worried that you might mess it up." Mo Wei said calmly.

"That's right, I'm very smart." Qingniu snorted softly.

"Yes, he was kidnapped as soon as he left home. He was really smart." Mo Wei's understatement made Qingniu furious.

"Okay, what does this kid say? He wants you to take care of him. If you take on the cause, you must pay back the result."

"Hmph, how can I repay you now that I'm like this? You already said you were going to take me in, so shouldn't these things be what you should be thinking about?" Qingniu snorted.

"Hey, you have a really good mind! Now you just pass the blame to me! It doesn't matter, who wants to accept a mount like you, so I can only reluctantly agree." Mo Wei said pretending to be helpless.

"What? You actually treat me as a mount? I am a spiritual beast, a spiritual beast of heaven and earth, how can I be ridden by others? I know you humans don't have any good things." Qing Niu exploded immediately and said bitterly.

"I'll provide you with food and shelter, and I'll help you wipe your ass. What's wrong with being my mount? Have I wronged you? Look at what you look like now. Without me, I'm afraid you'd be slaughtered if you went out. Then you'll cry.

There is no place to cry." Mo Wei said disdainfully.

"You...you, okay, I can't beat you, you are justified. Hum, you can also let me be your mount, and you agree to three conditions." Qingniu shook his head.

"Wait for me here! You are really naughty. If anyone still thinks you are naive, then they are a fool. Tell me, what are the conditions?"

"Humph, I learned from you. You humans are too cunning. If you are not smart, you don't even know how you were deceived."

"The first condition is to bury the old man for me, then fulfill his last words and take good care of the boy."

"Oh, trouble! But"

"The second condition is to help me vent my anger. Grandson Xiang's death must be paid with blood."

"Stand up for your mount, yes."

"The third condition is that clearing the corpse cave will not allow this sinister thing to remain in the world."

"Help the mount regain its strength, yes."

"Do you know how much energy it takes for me to do these three things? If it's done, you have to be a quiet mount and don't make too many mistakes."

"I'm not like your human race. This spirit beast will always follow through on what I say." Qingniu shook his head, always feeling that his expression was a bit fake. He seemed to be laughing! Have I been fooled again? It shouldn't be, this bull is so smart.

, I should not be fooled again.

"Then how are you going to take care of this kid?" Qingniu asked.

"Let's first see if there is any value in cultivating him. If he doesn't give him a lifetime of wealth and wealth. It just so happens that the caravan will leave tomorrow, so let's see how he performs along the way." Qingniu nodded.

One person and one cow were communicating with each other. Ning Caichen didn't know that he had been clearly arranged. Ning Caichen, who had resumed his actions, was a little scared when he saw the person and the cow.

"Don't panic, we are Mr. Xiang's juniors, we just came to see him off on his last journey. Tonight, you will stay in this hut! Remember to clean it up when you leave tomorrow morning." Qing Niu spoke up, scaring Ning Caichen again.

Jump, Mo Wei looked on and shook his head, he was too cowardly.

"The last journey? What did you do to Mr. Xiang, Mr. Xiang?" When I asked, I saw that Mr. Xiang didn't respond, so I pushed him gently. Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiang fell to the ground, tried to breathe, and was dead!

"You, you! How could you, how could you bear to do something to Mr. Xiang, such a kind person? Ah, I... I will fight with you!" Ning Caichen ran over, holding the hoe, gritting his teeth and squinting his eyes before rushing forward.

.

"Are you still a little bloody?"

"Nonsense!" Qingniu roared, and Ning Caichen was stunned on the spot! What's wrong? Why can't he move his body? What kind of magic did they use?

"I am a Taoist person recorded in the Daolu Division. How could I do such a despicable thing?" Mo Wei took out his Daolu Division ID card. Ning Caichen carefully identified the authenticity and then realized that it was him.

I made a mistake and apologized profusely.

"The Taoist leader is here to clear out the Corpse Town? Then I won't be able to go to Guobei County soon?" Ning Caichen's eyes lit up, thinking that he could receive the payment as soon as possible, and his mother would also have money to treat her illness.

"Trouble!" Mo Wei's eyes flashed with light, and after entering Ning Caichen's sea of ​​consciousness, Ning Caichen fainted.

"What did you do?" Qingniu was puzzled.

"It's okay. Since it's a test, I can't let him know too much information. I've sealed his memory. When he wakes up tomorrow morning, he will only remember that Mr. Xiang went out to fish, and told him to remember to travel with the caravan tomorrow."

"What a powerful magical power, can I learn it?" Qingniu looked envious, thinking that when he learned it, he would give the Taoist in front of him a slap and he could sneak away.

"Okay!" This magical power was discovered by Mo Wei after discovering Fang Yuxun's seal, and it is just applicable now.

"But you won't be able to comprehend it. Let's take back our strength first. I have many methods. I will teach you when you regain your strength." Mo Wei said.

"Tonight is your time, go and bury Mr. Xiang, I won't disturb you." After saying that, Mo Wei disappeared and sat cross-legged on the spot to adjust his breathing.

Qingniu carried Xiang Lao's body and walked towards the grassland behind. This was Xiang Lao's request. He said he wanted to be buried here, where he had a good view and could see farther away, so that he could keep watch on his grandson.

There was no words for the whole night, and the next day, a knock on the door woke up Ning Caichen, who was sleeping soundly. Ning Caichen opened the door with bleary eyes.

"Hey, why can't you see Mr. Xiang?" The one-eyed man asked when he saw Ning Caichen opening the door.

"Oh, Boss Xiang went out to fish a long time ago! I was going to go with him, but Boss Xiang didn't allow it, so I just fell asleep." Ning Caichen rubbed his eyes and adjusted to the skylight.

.

"Well, I was planning to say goodbye to Mr. Xiang, but it seems I won't be able to see him. I'm getting ready to leave. Little brother, I'd better pack up my things quickly and let's go together. This trip is more dangerous, so I'd better confirm with little brother.

Are you sure you want to set off together?" Du Yan kindly reminded him that he hoped Ning Caichen would retreat in the face of difficulties. After all, he himself didn't have much confidence.

"Okay, I'll help Mr. Xiang close the doors and windows right now. Wait a minute." One Eye's words immediately made Ning Caichen wake up. He quickly put the box on his back and closed the doors and windows of the house.

"Let's go." Duyan was about to say something but hesitated, but the words he spoke were like water being thrown out. He felt embarrassed to take them back, so he could only follow Ning Caichen in a depressed manner.

"Let's set off!" The motorcade rang the bell and set off. Ning Caichen followed in the middle of the motorcade, with One Eye leading the way.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Lin, standing next to Ning Caichen, asked.

"Guobei County."

"Why are you going? It must be very important for a scholar like you to travel so far away, right? Can you tell me something?"

"Ashamed, my mother is seriously ill and has no money for medical treatment. My father left a bill when he was alive and I went to collect it."

"Well, you are so filial! Don't worry, with the boss here you will be able to reach Guobei County safely." Xiao Lin comforted.

At this time, the convoy came to the bridge. As agreed in advance, the sandbags on the bridge had been cleared and it was suitable for passage.

After passing the stone bridge, you will enter the mountain on a winding path. There are dense jungles on both sides of the path, and the roars of various raptors can be heard from time to time.

After a tense march, the convoy arrived at the foot of the mountain without any danger, but the mountain road was obviously a bit uneven. In broad daylight, it was windy and thick fog was everywhere.

"Everyone, be careful. There are many wild monsters in the mountains. Keep your spirits up and don't fall into the traps of the monsters." The one-eyed man who opened the way had a solemn expression because the ghost-headed sword in his hand was flashing red. This was because he sensed that there were ghosts and monsters around him.

The evil spirit of blood revealed after the appearance.

Under One Eye's reminder, everyone cheered up and followed the convoy into the misty mountain road.

As soon as we entered the mountain road, the visibility dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye! Everyone had to raise torches to disperse the evil spirits, so as to make it easier to move forward!

This was the moment when the torch was raised, but it made everyone in the team feel numb!

I saw dense will-o'-the-wisps floating around, and light came up one after another.

"Don't panic! This is a will-o'-the-wisp, the lowest level spirit. Even the weapons in our hands can cause damage. Stay calm and kill the will-o'-the-wisp when it gets close!"

"Draw out the sword!" One Eye shouted, and the guards chopped off the weapons in their hands one after another. Even Ning Caichen took a handful. He chopped down hard, and saw sparks flying around him.

"Okay! Remember this feeling and come here!" The convoy was killing the will-o'-the-wisps as it marched! This kind of physical exertion is extremely serious, and you can only rely on your willpower to support it!

Along the way, Ning Caichen felt as if his hands and feet were no longer his own. The soreness and numbness spread throughout his body, and in the end he could only rely on instinct to slash with the blade.

In this way, after walking for three hours on the short ten-mile mountain road, the convoy finally saw four thatched huts on the top of the mountain. They were built by traveling merchants and can now be used as temporary residences.

"Brothers, work harder, we will soon reach the top of the mountain. We will spend the night on the top of the mountain tonight. Don't delay! The mountains and forests at night are the most dangerous. Get inside quickly!" With One Eye's encouragement, everyone survived the most difficult time.

At that moment, the team drove to the top of the mountain.

"Brothers, unload the goods." One Eye ordered, then told the employer in the carriage to rest here for the night, then took out a stack of talismans from the carriage and threw it to Ning Caichen.

"Post the talismans on all the doors and windows, otherwise you won't be able to sleep peacefully tonight." Ning Caichen took the talisman. Although he was already tired at the moment, he still had to do this small thing of being blessed. He struggled to get up.

Ning Caichen put the talismans around the house. The goods were also moved into the house and the horses outside were tied up.

"Okay, let's all go inside and have a rest. Try not to go out to relieve yourself at night. If necessary, deal with it as soon as possible." After saying this, several men turned around and stopped. Ning Caichen naturally listened to the advice, and also
Chapter completed!
