Raise an apprentice to cultivate immortals

Chapter 138 Prelude to Departure
Ku Lao picked up a chicken leg on the table and shook it, and then the black coal ball automatically jumped off the bed and rolled in front of him.Don't get me wrong, this is not a curse word, but it moves in two monotonous ways, one jump and one roll!
I saw the old man throwing the chicken leg, the black coal ball jumped, and the big mouth that appeared out of thin air swallowed the chicken leg in one gulp, leaving no bones.

Dong Yi looked at this scene in surprise, and suddenly thought of a possibility.If it had opened its mouth like this just now, its entire palm would probably be gone!Thinking of such a result, she felt a chill.It's terrifying, what a terrifying sight!
When the black coal ball returned to the bed again, Dong Yi avoided it with some fear.The pure black coal ball didn't notice her change at all, it still wanted to get close to Dongyi.In her body, it felt the breath of its master's soul, and it trusted her.

Facing its approach, Dongyi could only reluctantly accept it.She originally planned to procrastinate for a while, but now she wished it could end sooner, so that she could get rid of this dangerous little thing. "Well, Xiangguo, should we talk about the route or something?"

"No hurry, no hurry, girl, you must be hungry, let's eat first." Ku Lao saw that they seemed to be getting down to business again, so he immediately reminded them.He put the food he brought on the small table and brought it to Dong Yi's bed.

Four dishes and one soup, full of color, fragrance and taste, look very attractive.

She casually picked up a mouthful of the dish and tasted it, and was immediately very satisfied. "Ku Lao, the chef here is very good!" With food in his mouth, Dong Yi still did not forget to praise the cook.

Ku Lao smiled and didn't say much, in fact, he cooked all these meals.He has served these people all his life, so he naturally knows their preferences very well.Whether it is now or before, Junzuo is still obsessed with food as always, this is the so-called foodie.

Of course, Dongyi doesn't eat everything, she has the habit of picky eaters, such as garlic leaves and green onion leaves.And she likes to pick out what she doesn't eat.The table was too small to hold sundries, so her eyes naturally moved to the black coal balls beside her.

As soon as she loosened her chopsticks, a garlic leaf was about to stick to the quilt, and a tongue gently swept it away.

Well, although such a scene looks a little shuddering, Dongyi is very happy to find a pure... trash can?Dong Yi picked out all the things she didn't like to eat and put them on a plate, and then put the plate in front of the black coal ball.

The black coal ball swept everything into the mouth with a face-saving mouthful, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Seeing this miraculous scene again, Dong Yi still couldn't help but want to ask: This guy is so big, does he need to swallow something after eating?
"Ah, why are you eating the plate too!" Dong Yi realized later that he didn't have time to stop it from swallowing the plate, so he didn't know how to deal with it, and was afraid that it would cause problems.

Seeing this, Ku Lao immediately explained: "It's okay, its stomach can hold anything, so don't worry. Girl, let's eat quickly, don't you have something to discuss with Xiangguo after eating?"

"Really?" Although Dong Yi didn't quite believe it, he did calm down.While eating her own food, she looked at the black briquettes, fearing that something might go wrong with it.However, after she finished her meal, the black briquettes were still the same, and it seemed that there was really no problem.

Since there is no problem, then the meal is over, it's time to talk about things!
After Ku Lao tidied away his things, Yu Yaoyang took out a scroll. "This is a map to find Yinyin trees. You can follow the map to reach the places where Yinyin trees may grow. At that time, you only need to find it and bring it back."

"Wait." Dong Yi seemed to be a little bit wrong. "What is a place where it might grow? That is to say, it might not grow there either?"

Yu Yaoyang didn't hide anything, and answered simply. "That's right."

Dong Yi really wanted to yell: I'm quitting!But in the end she didn't have the courage, so she could only ask helplessly: "Then, Mr. Xiangguo, what if there is no Changyin Yinmu over there?"

"Then come back and look for it in another place."

Well, now that he is the uncle, he has the final say, and the errand runner can only ask his doubts clearly one by one. "Then, Lord Xiangguo, if I say I didn't find Yin Yinmu there, how can I confirm that I haven't missed any places?"

That's a real problem.Whether that area is big or small, there will indeed be omissions.After thinking for a while, Yu Yaoyang made a decision. "I will go back and revise the map, and mark the main walking route. If you follow which road and you don't find Yinyinmu, then you can come back."

Dongyi nodded, approving this method.Although it is still possible to make a trip in vain, it is a little bit of energy to save yourself!

"In addition, this time you need to go through the territory of the Fourth Commander Yin Kugu. He is Kulao's nephew. You can go and understand the situation with Kulao later."

"Ah? Since there are connections, isn't it very convenient?" The concept of being connected and easy to handle has been deeply imprinted in Dongyi's mind, and it has become her first reflection.

Yu Yaoyang was very disdainful of this, and he kindly reminded Dongyi. "The ghost realm is different from the earth realm. Only people with the same status have any relationship here. Weak as you, no one will care about it. And the relationship between dry bones and old people is not as harmonious as you think."

"Knowing that I'm weak, you still let me be a bodyguard." Dong Yi muttered in a low voice with a displeased expression on his face.

Yu Yaoyang pretended not to hear anything when he heard it, anyway, talking too much would only make him depressed. "Take another two or three days of self-cultivation. After my map is repaired, you can set off."

"Well, should I take a carriage or ride a horse? Also, I don't have any money with me now, will you pay for the fare on the road?" Dong Yi thinks that other questions can be put aside first, but about the transportation tools and funds. , must be negotiated first.

"We will prepare all the fares on the road for you, but you have to walk there."

walk?This is not difficult, the key is how long to go?
"How long is the journey?"

This time Yu Yaoyang did not answer directly. "Wait until I go back and draw the route again." He dodges and disappears into Dongyi's room, leaving Dongyi and Heiqiu looking at each other.

Dongyi was very suspicious in his heart, the more he couldn't explain the problem clearly, the more problematic it was.It's just that she didn't see Yu Yaoyang for two days in a row, so she had nothing to do, so she could only inquire about news from Ku Lao.

"Kurao, I heard that you have a nephew, what kind of seal is it?" Dong Yi sat in the kitchen, watching Kulao busy while eating the small cakes he brought out.

Ku Lao's smooth movements paused because of her words, but soon returned to normal. "Yeah, a guy who doesn't live up to expectations."

Dong Yi felt from his tone that the relationship between Ku Lao and Ku Gu really didn't seem to be very good. "Ku Lao, what are the Four Commander Seals?" She felt that she needed to change the topic first, to learn about the Nether World.

"These four handsome seals are a kind of appellation..." Ku Lao talked about the whole Netherworld related things one after another. Although he didn't say everything, he basically understood everything that Dong Yi should know.

This information allowed her to analyze many things, and she deeply felt that the purpose that Yu Yaoyang expressed in one sentence at the beginning seemed not so simple to do.It seems that this enchantress Tinder should not be the first step.

Yu Yaoyang once said that on her way to find Yinyinmu, she must pass through the site of withered bones, so is the first task to solve the withered bones?But Dry Bones is obviously stronger than her, how is she going to solve it?

It is impossible for him to let himself sacrifice, and then he can say revenge, this kind of brainless scheme Yu Yaoyang can never come up with.A one-on-one battle is easier and more convenient than a battle between forces, and there is still a connection between the two forces.Therefore, his goal should be to let himself get rid of the dead bones.

And he must also know that he is not a bone opponent at all, so he will definitely arrange a chess piece by his side, and when necessary, he will kill with one blow!Chess pieces arranged around?Thinking about it, Dong Yi couldn't help turning his eyes to the black coal ball, the chess piece, it turned out that it was already there!

With a little bit of clarity and understanding, Dongyi understood the function of black coal balls.She felt that it was necessary for her to re-examine this seemingly useless guy.

There was no flaw in the performance of the black coal ball. It stared at the food on the plate, even though it wanted to eat it very much, but it endured without moving its mouth.Apparently its previous owner taught it good manners.And the behaviors it shows are all out of nature, and Dong Yi can't see anything for a while.She saw that it was very greedy, so she agreed with it to eat the food.

"Black briquette, you can eat the food, but you can't eat the utensils too." While Dong Yi allowed it, he still wanted to warn it.

Although there were examples and Gu Lao's guarantee before, Dongyi still felt uneasy.Is it really okay to eat indiscriminately?Nothing will happen?Dongyi couldn't guarantee it. She felt that it was necessary for her to restrain herself, and it would be better to cultivate a new eating habit of black briquettes.

Fortunately, Black Coal Ball is very smart and obedient.He obediently ate the snack bite by bite, and no longer gobbled it up like last time. Dongyi patted its head in satisfaction.Well, in other words, it only has a head.

At the same time, Yu Yaoyang's map modification has also come to an end.Rou Yun has been taking care of Yu Yaoyang for the past few days, and she deliberately avoids the possibility of meeting Dong Yi.

"Xiangguo, do you really want Dongyi to take risks?" Looking at the clear route, she was very worried.

Yu Yaoyang drew the last stroke, and then put down the pen. "This is a necessary process. If we don't solve one problem first, our future path will become more and more difficult."
