Time passed, and more than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the caravan did not encounter any major dangers. Even in the Dongyin area where flying monsters were entrenched, it did not suffer large-scale attacks.
Now, the caravan has arrived at the edge of the Dongyin area, and is only a few days away from its destination, Cangxu City. This makes the atmosphere of the entire caravan gradually become more relaxed.
At noon that day, the caravan arrived near a huge mountain range.
The mountains are undulating, and most of the peaks are extremely steep in shape, like bamboo shoots jutting out of the ground. The mountains are lush with trees and look very beautiful.
The mountain wind blew by, and there were bursts of strange sounds from the mountains, sharp and clear, like the roar of cranes.
The sound was not loud, but the number was extremely large, as if there were thousands of white cranes singing in unison in the mountains.
Most of the people in the convoy came here for the first time. When they heard the sound, they all looked at the mountains curiously. Some people looked around, looking for the white crane that made the sound.
"Ahead is the famous Heming Mountain Range nearby. However, this sound is not really the sound of cranes, but the sound made by the peak blowing over a special plant here, the Heming Grass." The penultimate floating cloud car.
, Leng Yuetong said as he looked at the mountains in front of him.
"Heming Mountains..." Shi Mu murmured thoughtfully, with a strange color in his eyes.
He also studied the route for escorting the caravan on the road. The Heming Mountains were within the sphere of influence of the Savage Winged Crane Tribe.
The Heming Mountain Range is more than 10,000 miles wide, and is located on the main transportation route of three major regions. The terrain is steep and difficult to navigate. There is only an opened road in the center of the mountain range that can be passed, or it can be bypassed.
However, the Heming Mountain Range is a vast terrain, and it would take several times the time to take a detour there. Therefore, many business travelers have to take the road in the middle of the mountain range even though they know that there are many risks in the Yihe Mountains.
"Everyone, listen up!" A blue light flashed in the air, and a figure emerged, it was Ling To.
When everyone in the motorcade below heard this, their expressions perked up and they looked up.
"You don't need to tell me what's going on in the Heming Mountains. You should all know. Everyone, please cheer up! Once you cross this mountain range, Cangxu City will be right in front of you!" Ling To shouted.
"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison.
Ling Tou nodded with satisfaction, glanced towards the rear of the motorcade, then flew to the front of the motorcade and led the motorcade to move forward.
When night fell, everyone arrived at Yunyi City, a medium-sized town at the foot of the mountain.
The city's guards just conducted a brief inspection and passed the review.
After entering the city, everyone got off the Fuyun Car, clustered the eight cars in the middle, and started walking slowly.
Since everyone was dressed in different ways, and there were people and barbarians among them, such a team of sixty or seventy people was quite eye-catching.
Most of the residents here are thin-faced Yihe tribe barbarians. Looking at such a mighty caravan, their eyes do not reveal much friendliness and enthusiasm. There are even some people who stare at everyone intently.
Look, and from time to time glance greedily at the floating cloud car in the middle.
However, when the leader Ling To occasionally glanced at them fiercely, most of these people's expressions changed and they turned their heads, not daring to take another look.
This made Ling To feel quite proud.
Shi Mu and others also did not relax their vigilance and observed the surrounding situation from time to time.
Fortunately, everyone is a master above the innate level, and Ling To and Zhong Xiu are earth-level and moon-level existences, so no one dares to step forward and ask for trouble.
At first glance, the architectural style here is quite unique, mainly with spires. From time to time, you can see crane-shaped decorations, reliefs, and patterns. Shi Mu, who was visiting for the first time, was secretly stunned. It was also an eye-opener.
Leng Yuetong looked like he was used to it.
The town is also bustling and noisy at night. A main road passes through the middle of the town and extends into the mountains. It is the predecessor of the ancient road in the mountains. On both sides of the road are shops, restaurants and inns of different styles.
"It's getting late, and Yunyi City is the last stop before entering the Heming Mountains. Everyone is tired from the journey. It may be more dangerous to drive in the Heming Mountains late at night, so let's rest for the night." Zhong Xiu arrived.
At the front of the team, he discussed with Ling To.
"Miss Zhong is thoughtful and considerate, and I also have the same intention. I will recharge my batteries tonight and set out early the next morning." Ling Fu nodded repeatedly.
"Then stay in this inn." Zhong Xiu was unmoved by Ling To's flattery and looked at a medium-sized inn on the roadside not far away.
"The conditions of this inn are too bad. Ling has been here before and remembers that there is a large inn not far ahead. The conditions are very good, and there are several local specialties in the restaurant. The taste is very good. I believe Zhong
The girl will also like it." Ling To said.
"Fellow Daoist Ling, we are not traveling this time. Wouldn't it be too conspicuous to live in a place like that?" Zhong Xiu frowned.
"Haha, what Miss Zhong said is wrong. No matter where we live here, it's impossible not to attract attention. In that case, why should we be so needlessly careful!" Ling Toad said with a smile.
Zhong Xiu raised her eyebrows. There was some truth in Ling To's words, but it was not easy for her to refute.
"With you and me here, and with the signboard of your Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, those blind thieves have to think carefully if they want to touch us. Don't worry, Miss Zhong." Ling To said confidently.
"Okay then." Zhong Xiu nodded.
Ling To's face suddenly showed excitement. Zhong Xiu had been extremely cold to him along the way. This was the first time that he recognized him.
"Let's go to the inn in front to rest." Ling Tou turned around and said to everyone. When he turned around, Zhong Xiu had already turned and walked towards the Fuyun Car behind him.
With a look of resentment on his face, he had no choice but to walk forward alone.
"Haha, this guy Ling Tou has hit a snag again." Leng Yuetong laughed in a low voice in the motorcade.
Shi Mu also had a faint smile on his face, and his eyes glanced over Ling To's back, but a ray of cold light flashed across his face.
This person pestered Zhong Xiu all the way, and Shi Mu secretly released his spiritual consciousness along the way. He found that when the other party talked about Zhong Xiu privately with his cronies, he used very unpleasant words. This made Shi Mu very angry. If it weren't for him, he would still have to be on guard now.
The Ming Yue Sect's conspiracy will definitely not let the other side off lightly.
"This town looks very interesting, Brother Mu, please come with me for a walk later." Leng Yuetong said.
"Sorry, I have something to do next and I may not be able to spare the time." Shi Mu's eyes moved and he shook his head in refusal.
"You...hum! You are so ungrateful!" Leng Yuetong seemed not to have expected that Shi Mu would refuse so bluntly. She snorted angrily, quickened her pace, and walked to the front, leaving Shi Mu behind.
"Shitou, this Leng girl is really hot and spicy, but she is such a beautiful woman. Are you really not interested? I really like it, but it's a pity that she is not a parrot." At this moment, Shi Mu thought of Cai'er.
sound.
"Shut up! Observe carefully and don't miss it!" Shi Mu replied angrily through telepathy.
The group of people soon arrived at an inn in the center of the town. This inn was indeed very luxurious. There was a six-story attic at the front, and an exquisite courtyard at the back with bluestone paving. It was very clean and the environment was excellent.
Surprisingly, the innkeeper was not a barbarian from the Yihe Tribe, but he hired many barbarian guards. He was very good at doing business, and enthusiastically arranged for everyone to move into several larger courtyards.
Zhong Xiu gathered all the floating cloud cars into a larger courtyard, arranged for everyone to take turns to rest in batches, and monitored them closely at all times.
"Miss Zhong, just leave this place to them. We are in the city now and it is relatively safe. Let's go and taste the delicious food here first!" Ling To said.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in food. After all, it's best to be careful. I'll stay here to guard the convoy. If General Ling wants to eat, you can go there yourself." Zhong Xiu said lightly, turned around and walked into a room.
The door closed with a "snap".
Zhong Xiu's two maids looked slightly embarrassed, smiled apologetically at Ling To, and followed into the room.
Ling To's face was ashen and extremely ugly, and he clenched his hands into fists and made a rattling sound.
Everyone in the courtyard looked at each other in shock, and no one dared to speak for a moment.
Snap!
I don't know who accidentally touched something and made a little noise, but it was extremely loud in the yard at the moment.
Ling To suddenly turned around, his eyes as cold and sharp as a knife, and glanced at everyone in the courtyard.
Everyone turned their heads in a hurry and started busy with their own business.
In a corner of the yard, Shi Mu stood there leisurely, glanced at Ling Tou with disdain, and turned his head away.
Ling To snorted, turned to look at the door of Zhong Xiu's room, and strode outside.
When Ling Tou walked out of the courtyard, everyone in the courtyard breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other with a wry smile.
Everyone rested in batches and took turns guarding the floating cloud car.
Shi Mu was placed in the third round, and it would be two hours later. There was nothing to do at the moment.
With a thoughtful look on his face, he walked towards the outside of the courtyard.
After walking a certain distance, a figure swooped down from mid-air and landed on his shoulder. It was Cai'er.
"Shitou, do you want to go out for a walk? Let's go eat something delicious!" Cai'er asked.
"The Ming Yue Eastern Sect and the Yihe Tribe are colluding, and we don't know when they will attack. I don't have the time to spare!" Shi Mu said with a frown.
Cai'er sighed in disappointment.
"Okay, don't be lazy. You and I will split up and see if we can find any clues in the city. When this matter is settled, I promise you that I will take you to eat delicious food." Shi Mu said, and then threw a piece
The middle grade water attribute spirit stone passed.
Cai'er caught the spirit stone in one gulp, swallowed it, nodded, flapped her wings again, and flew silently into the air.
Shi Mu watched Cai'er's figure disappear into the night sky and continued walking along the street.
