Chapter 132 On the Road

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Lu Xiucai, who was shivering, woke up from the cold. He looked at the bonfire in a daze, and found that the fire was almost extinguished. He immediately looked at Gouwa who was responsible for keeping watch with some dissatisfaction.

I saw the guy with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks nodding his head, looking like he had fallen asleep a long time ago.

However, Lu Xiucai did not dare to go over and reprimand him because his father had already said hello.

These people are your future bodyguards. If you want to continue to follow them, you must not have any conflicts with them and deal with them carefully.

Lu Xiucai got up with a look of dissatisfaction on his face. After putting enough firewood into the fire, he climbed into the quilt again.

But as soon as he closed his eyes and didn't squint for a few seconds, he felt that his father was stabbing him with a cigarette pole.

"Hey baby, wake up quickly and go to the river to fetch water. It's almost dawn."

Lu Xiucai wailed, grabbed the quilt with both hands and covered his head.

However, the next second, the cigarette pole no longer poked, but instead knocked.

"Hurry up! This day and earth know how to eat and be lazy! Are you going to be a lazy man? A lazy man can't even afford a wife!"

The sun gradually rises, and everyone around them gradually wakes up.

Bai Lingmiao rubbed her eyes, stood up from Chun Xiaoman's warm arms, and looked around.

When she still didn't see that familiar face, there was a hint of disappointment on her face.

Then she looked up into the distance and saw the mist-shrouded mountain peaks.

According to Master Jingxin, Li Huowang’s destination is there. If he can’t find it on the road, he can only go to the mountains and ask.

She pulled her feet out from under the quilt and started to put on her shoes and socks. She had to go on a journey later and couldn't go hungry.

Just eating ready-made food is not enough. You have to save money from different places. Adding more complementary foods is one aspect. If you have more complementary foods, you can eat less food.

She, Xiaoman and Lu Zhuangyuan's daughter-in-law walked into the forest to dig wild vegetables.

At the transition between spring and summer, wild vegetables in the forest are very abundant. After a while, Bai Lingmiao's basket contained some Polygonatum sibiricum, wild onions, and fungus.

They passed by a mushroom field, but they didn't pick it.

After so many days of practice, Bai Lingmiao can basically identify wild vegetables.

But mushrooms could kill people, so she didn't dare to pick them, even though they looked normal and not poisonous.

When she returned to the campfire with the washed wild vegetables, she saw that the fish had been cooked by the sensible Taoist boy.

A tadpole-like dough is constantly rolling in the boiling water.

"Child Yang, just let the adults do this." Bai Lingmiao picked the wild vegetables in the basket into small sections and put them into the pot.

"It's okay, Senior Sister Bai, I like cooking. Hehe."

Wild vegetables themselves cook quickly, and as the last spoonful of white lard melts into the pot, a hungry bowl of wild vegetable noodles and fish is ready.

A group of people held bowls and started eating with a splash.

When the two parties first came into contact, they were still doing their own thing.

But after a few days, I found that this was really troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Finally, Lu Zhuangyuan simply suggested that we just have a big pot of rice together and provide a meal of food at the same time.

With a "squeak" sound, Lu Zhuangyuan sucked a fragrant noodle fish in the bowl into his mouth, and while chewing, he asked: "Miss Bai, is the little Taoist going this way? Don't get sidetracked."

"That's right. Master Jingxin said that Senior Brother Li can only go this way, and there is no other way." Bai Lingmiao answered firmly.

She was the first to notice that something was wrong with Li Huowang's reaction when he left.

When Senior Brother Li was talking to her, his face was no longer gloomy. Instead, he felt like he suddenly looked away. That feeling made her feel inexplicably scared every time she recalled it.

Because of this, she hurried back with the others, but she still didn't meet him in the end.

That's why she took the Lu family class she met by chance and rushed in the direction where Li Huowang left. "Senior Brother Li, please be sure nothing happens to you..."

"As long as it's okay, as long as it's okay, I'll just ask." Lu Zhuangyuan said with a smile.

Although he had a smile on his face, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart. The reason why he left the country to hide from the enemy was Li Huowang, but when they met, he found that everyone else was there and he was the only one who was gone.

After walking for so long, I still haven’t seen my reliable escort, which is really a bit uneasy.

A large pot of wild vegetables, noodles and fish was eaten up quickly, not even any noodle soup was left. There was oil and water in the noodle soup, so it would be a waste to throw it away.

After eating and drinking, they started to hit the road again.

It’s boring when you’re on the road, and the day just passed, with no changes except that the mountains in the distance became clearer.

As the sky gradually dimmed, Bai Lingmiao noticed that there seemed to be a bright light on the mountains in the distance.

"Have the people on the mountain seen Senior Brother Li? I heard from Master that these people are very dangerous. Will Senior Brother Li be in danger?"

That night, Bai Linmiao used the firelight to sew his own shoes with needle and thread. He was on the road every day, so it was natural for his shoes to get worn out.

Except for Zhao Wu who was keeping watch at night, everyone else was asleep. Compared to the hustle and bustle during the day, everything around him was quiet.

"Zhijian, your shoes are also torn, take them off and mend them for me." Bai Lingmiao said to the big man holding an iron rod.

"Hmm... um... stinky!" Gao Zhijian shrank his feet back.

"It's okay, take them off. Look, your toes are exposed. If you don't mend these shoes, they will fall apart."

He stammered and pushed away, and just as he was taking off his shoes hesitantly, he suddenly grasped the iron rod with both hands and yelled at the right side of the forest.

This loud roar startled everyone, and when they all woke up, they immediately understood why Gao Zhijian did what he did.

From the dark forest, there was a certain sound, a clicking sound, accompanied by a whining sound that sounded like a ghost.

In the middle of the night, these two sounds appeared in the woods, which instantly made everyone feel creepy.

"This...is this happening again? Why am I so unlucky this year! Again?" Lu Zhuangyuan, who was wearing clothes, complained bitterly.

Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and raised his hands to Bai Lingmiao and the others, "Everyone, you are also the junior brothers and sisters of the young Taoist master. You should be able to handle this situation now, right?"

After finishing speaking, the voice was still approaching, getting closer and closer, as if it was separated by a bush.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone picked up their weapons.

Suddenly the bushes moved, and a woman wearing a red hijab and colorful clothes walked out of it.

"Oh my God!! There is a female ghost!!" Lu Xiucai was so frightened that he ducked under the carriage.

"What's wrong? What is it?" Bai Lingmiao asked the two gods carefully.

The two gods didn't say anything, they just raised their right hands with long black nails and kept waving them, asking Bai Lingmiao to get closer.
