Commander's Destiny

Chapter 66 The Black-haired Monster
"In that case, let's set off quickly and go to the southeast to save people." Jiang Qianfeng couldn't sit still when he heard this, and immediately volunteered.

"Wait a minute, righteous men, Mr. Hu is very grateful to you for rescuing Miss Li several times. However, the southeast of this place is full of high mountains, and it is easy to get lost without a guide. How about this, I will take you there. My family used to be in the medicinal material business Yes, so I am very familiar with that area." Mr. Hu wanted to go with them when he heard that these people were going to save Miss Li.

It seems that Mr. Hu really has sincere affection for Miss Li, he even dared to go to save her when he heard that there were evil spirits.

Bai Wuyan thought so in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

The moment Mr. Hu and his eyes met, Bai Wuyan nodded happily and said: "Okay, then Mr. Hu will lead the way."

The lofty mountains that Mr. Hu said were actually the Lushan area where the valley where Bai Wuyan and the others discovered the treasure house of Taoyuan Village was located.

It's just that they arrived at the southeast foot of the mountain, but this time they wanted to explore the northwest foot.

Mr. Hu took Bai Wuyan and the three of them around all the way, passed through several villages in a row, and walked for an hour before they came to the foot of a big mountain.

"We locals call this area Dahua Mountain. It is rumored that there used to be many rare and exotic beasts on Dahua Mountain, but our generation has never seen them before." Cheng's hiking stick pointed to the mountain above his head, and introduced to everyone, "Let's rest for a while, and I will take you along the forest path where the herb pickers go up the mountain. If you take the big road, you have to go around. I can't go up the mountain either."

"How did you and this Miss Li family know each other? Why are you willing to work so hard for her?" Bai Wuyan and Mr. Hu sat side by side by the weedy path, chatting while drinking water.

"I heard that the Li family is looking for a son-in-law, so I have been paying attention to this lady. Once I staged a hero saving the beauty at the door of a clothing store she often goes to, and I got to know each other. If I want to talk about why I worked so hard , There is an old saying that goes well, people make money and birds die for food." It may be because they are both men, or it may be because of their aura compatibility, Mr. Hu has a good impression of Bai Wuyan, and he dares to listen to him what is in his heart .

"You are sincere, so you are not afraid that I will tell Miss Li?" Bai Wuyan didn't expect that Mr. Hu was not as innocent as he thought. He wondered how much real affection he had for Miss Li?
"What's the matter, it's just that everyone gets what they need, but you guys, Mr. Bai, what is the reason for seeing injustice?" People are like this sometimes, they like to use their own standpoint and values ​​to understand and judge others, but they don't know People are so different.

"It's not about encountering injustice on the road, and we are not knights. It's just that Miss Li has helped us before, and we don't want to see death. Besides, this matter of the soul is the mission we are pursuing. That's all." Bai Wuyan always likes to understate his cynicism in front of outsiders.

Although the chat between the two of them seemed sincere, there were [-]% truth mixed with [-]% falsehood, but it was okay, at least it added some foundation of trust to the future cooperation between them.

After a short rest, everyone set off on the road again.

This Dahua Mountain is indeed a paradise for herb pickers. Yao Jingli has collected many rare Chinese herbal medicines along the way, including daphne, stone fungus and white keel, which he said will definitely be used in the future.

So Mr. Hu accompanied Yao Jingli to identify the herbs in the back, but it turned into Jiang Qianfeng and Bai Wuyan to explore the way in front.

Just when they were about to reach the mountainside, Yao Jingli suddenly discovered that the roots of the same species of herbs had turned black and purple, and it wasn't just one plant. It seemed that the whole forest had been polluted by something.

Yao Jingli hurriedly showed the contaminated herb to Bai Wuyan. Seeing such an abnormal sign, Bai Wuyan immediately led Jiang Qianfeng along the way to investigate higher places.

It didn't take long for Jiang Qianfeng to discover something was wrong again: "Master Bai, look, the vegetation in the place we passed before was very dense, but why did the vegetation in front of us start to die in patches when we got here? gone?"

Bai Wuyan said vigilantly: "There may be evil spirits growing up ahead, you and I should be careful."

Going forward, the mountain road turned sharply, and the two suddenly found that they were blocked by a red miasma, and behind the miasma, a huge cave could be vaguely seen.

"What's the situation ahead?" At this time Yao Jingli also caught up and asked loudly.

Jiang Qianfeng turned around and was about to answer, but Bai Wuyan threw him down in the bushes next to him, and rolled further into the woods.

In the flash just now, Yao Jingli faintly saw a black-haired monster rushing out of the crimson miasma in front and pounced on Jiang Qianfeng's back.

Fortunately, Bai Wuyan had quick eyes and quick hands, and saved him in time, otherwise he might have died.

However, the monster turned around and went straight to the direction where Jiang Qianfeng and Bai Wuyan rolled down after a single blow, and chased after it.

At this time, Jiang Qianfeng and Bai Wuyan, who rolled down the hillside together, stopped in a relatively flat mountain forest after bumping into the trunk of a huge ancient tree.

Just as Bai Wuyan got up, he suddenly found that the monster that had jumped at Jiang Qianfeng just now had followed.

No, to be precise, it should have rolled down.

I saw that monster, with his back to the two of them, shaking the black steel needles inserted into his body like barbs all over his body, and then suddenly stood up with his two short legs that looked like dogs and wolves.

Immediately afterwards, the black-haired monster uttered a deafening roar, and all the birds in the forest were frightened for an instant, and all fled to the distance.

Bai Wuyan and Jiang Qianfeng didn't react exaggeratedly when they heard the roar, but neither of them spoke, they just stood there blankly.

The air between the two and the beast seemed to freeze at this moment.
