The convoy of forty or fifty people continued to move forward with difficulty on the road to Shezhao.
Although the incident of maid Jiu'er casts a shadow on people's hearts, it is ultimately just a small episode on the road.
With the bodyguards leading the way, and Xu Dao spreading the swarms of earthworms and flies around in advance, only a few people were injured, and the convoy passed Yingchou Stream relatively safely.
In the meantime, Xu Dao caught the strange bird that the bodyguard said, and after careful inspection, he found that the strange bird was just a ferocious beast with a bit of evil spirit, and was not a Qi-refining monster.
But because these eagles can fly, have sharp claws, and have extremely strong eyesight, they can easily penetrate the fog to hunt for prey, which is a great harm to the mortal caravan!
But for Xu Dao, a few strange birds are nothing more than that.
Crunch, crunch!
The carriage walked in the mountains and fields day after day, and the wheels kept making noise.
It was windy and rainy along the way, not to mention the people, even the carriage was badly worn and overwhelmed.
After arriving at Shezhao, if the team still wants to rely on these carriages to return, they must be repaired, otherwise they may fall apart halfway.
But whether these people still have the chance to make the return journey remains to be seen.
Except for the carriage in the center, the rest of the entire convoy was extremely depressing. The bodyguards all hugged the blades in their arms and looked gloomy.

When passing through Yingchou Stream a few days ago, no one in the convoy died, which made the escorts very happy.
But who knew that in the following days, miasma, ferocious beasts, and even poisonous snakes and insects would frequently appear on the road, which really cost them many lives.
And Xu Dao is sitting in the motorcade. Although he is protecting everyone, he is not the nanny of the motorcade, so naturally he will not watch everyone in the motorcade all the time.
Except for camping at night, the rest of the time, chopping wood, fetching water, and rushing to explore the road, there are considerable risks everywhere.
The escorts privately estimated that after arriving in Shezhao, it was a question whether they could survive thirty people.
Even the experienced escorts among them were worried about this. From time to time, they could be heard secretly cursing: "Tso Bird! Why is this road getting more and more difficult to walk? It was not like this in the past few years."
Almost all the escorts have great regret on their faces. If they could change their behavior at the beginning, they would never choose to embark on this path of no return.
But now they have passed Yingchou Stream, which is considered the boundary of Shezhao. As long as they hold on for a while longer, they can reach Shezhao and make a fortune.
And even if Xu Dao lets them go now, no one dares to leave the team.
Among the entire convoy, the only ones who did not feel depressed were Xu Dao and the maid Jiu'er in the central carriage.
Xu Dao had strength and was not afraid of the wolves, tigers and leopards on the road, and now that he had completely left the realm of White Bone Temple, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, Xu Dao had already figured out a safe route to Shezhao from different escorts. Even if everyone in the convoy died, he would not worry about getting lost.
Strictly speaking, the dangers along the way were minor compared to those in the Black Mountains. But this was an unfamiliar territory after all, so he had to continue to take it easy.
As for the maid Jiu'er, she was still in a coma and had been sleeping for three days. If Xu Dao had not fed her blood and honey water, this girl would have died of hunger and thirst even if she did not die suddenly.
Fortunately, after these days of recuperation, the high fever in the maid's body has subsided and her vitality has stabilized. She has passed the gate of hell and will wake up soon.
In the carriage.
Xu Dao sat cross-legged on a straw futon as usual, his body swaying along with the carriage, appearing quite rhythmic.
There is nothing to do on the road. Although Xu Dao cannot breathe out spiritual energy, he can polish his magic power and is currently practicing.
When he was immersed in practice, the little maid lying on the bed suddenly moved her fingers, her throat swallowed, her eyelids trembled, and finally she opened her eyes with difficulty.
After waking up, the little maid looked at the roof of the car in a daze. After a long time, a look of fear appeared on her face, she curled up and hugged herself tightly.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that she was completely naked and naked, making her feel dazed again for a moment.
After Xu Dao successfully reskinned the little maid, he did not drive her out of the carriage directly, but kept her beside him. The clothes she wore before were already smelly of blood, so he naturally stripped her off and threw her out.
Outside the car.
But he was too lazy to put clothes on the other person, so he simply kept the other person naked.
However, whether it was when he was stripping off the little maid's clothes or in the past few days, Xu Dao was careful not to open the car door to avoid the possibility of her body being seen by others.
The little maid was stunned for a long time, until she heard a voice in her ears and woke up again.
"Sit up when you wake up." It was a cold voice, it was Xu Dao.
As early as the moment the little maid woke up, Xu Dao had already noticed it, but he didn't say anything immediately to give the other party a little more time to react.
Without waiting for the little maid to respond, Xu Dao took out something and threw it at her head and face. The maid was hit, and after touching it, she found that it was a piece of clothing.
By this time, Jiu'er was completely awake, and she also remembered what happened a few days ago. She lowered her gaze and recognized that the clothes in her arms looked like a Taoist robe, grey-brown.
Jiu'er did not put on her clothes immediately, but got up first, knelt down on the bed with her clothes in her arms, and leaned towards Xu Dao. She said hoarsely and respectfully: "Thank you, Taoist Master, for saving my life..."
When Xu Dao heard this, he turned his face and looked at Jiu'er's smooth back. He just nodded and said lightly: "Put on your clothes first."
After hearing Xu Dao's instructions, the little maid nodded and began to put on the clothes in her arms in silence.
The first time she dressed in front of a strange man, her behavior was quite reserved. But what made her movements even more sluggish was that she reached out and touched something on the back of her head and on top of her head that shouldn't be there.
Immediately, the maid's movements froze, fear appeared in her eyes again, and she did not dare to move. At this time, a silver mirror stretched out from beside her and was handed to her.
The little maid subconsciously held the mirror and clearly saw her current appearance on it through the smooth mirror surface.
The white fur, fox ears, and red eyes are nothing like ordinary people!
If the facial features of the person in the mirror were not very familiar to her, the little maid would never have recognized that it was herself. The fear in her eyes quickly rose and filled her mind.
She opened her small mouth in fear, looked at Xu Dao, and said helplessly and fearfully: "Mirror, there is a monster in the mirror!"
"No, the person in the mirror is you."
A cold voice sounded next to him again.
Xu Dao looked her up and down, with a hint of strange color in his eyes, and said again:
"From now on, you stay by my side and treat me as my child."
