Chapter 9 The fifth random mission(2/2)
If you are walking on mountain trails, it only takes four days at most.
Therefore, many caravans choose to take mountain roads in order to save time, at the cost of paying for escorts.
It costs a lot of money, and the money is collected by various schools. The schools will send students to escort them, and the students will be rewarded with points.
Tianling Continent has developed for so many years and has a very complete process line in all aspects.
Xia Qingyao and Li Zixiao didn't like to talk, so Yun Xi could only remain silent. She closed her eyes and silently absorbed the aura of heaven and earth.
The motorcade drove out of the city for less than two hours before turning from the official road to the mountain road.
Walking into the mountain road, many towering trees began to appear all around, with lush leaves scattered on the branches, like big umbrellas blocking the sun, and there were howls of wild beasts in the forest.
In order to avoid trouble, Yun Xi simply opened the skylight on the roof of the car. A flash of sword light flashed, and the Yutsi Sword was suspended above the roof of the car, moving forward with the convoy.
After the Yutide Sword was forged, the water spirit beads have been embedded in it, and the quality of the sword has also been qualitatively improved.
The sword intent emitted by such a spiritual sword is enough to deter most monsters on the outskirts of the Qingheng Mountains.
But there are also monsters that are fearless.
As the sky faded, the scent of monsters in the mountains and forests became stronger. Ordinary people in the convoy subconsciously held their breath, fearfully alerting their surroundings.
Leader Li said: "Let's rest on the spot first and wait until daybreak before setting off."
Even ordinary people know very well that night is the time when monsters appear. At this time, it is best to set up camp on the spot, light a fire, and sprinkle some monster-repelling powder.
Yun Xi glanced at Leader Li and did not object to his proposal.
Her identity is that of a bodyguard, not a boss, so there is no need to interfere with their decisions, as long as she can protect them.
The convoy stopped and camped on the spot.
It is said to be setting up camp, but in fact it means setting up a fire nearby, spreading more powder, and sleeping in the car later.
Yun Xi and the others got out of the car and sat down next to a fire.
The golden red firelight swayed with the night wind and shone on their faces, making them invisible.
The people in the caravan were all sitting around on the other side, chatting in low voices, their eyes secretly turning from time to time, not sure whether they were too curious about the three spiritual cultivators or too afraid of them.
Yun Xi stared at the swaying firelight and remained silent.
During this year, she often took on similar tasks. Only at this time would she realize the difference between herself and ordinary people, or the difference between spiritual cultivators and ordinary people.
She is already twenty-two years old, and her appearance is still the same as when she was eighteen, perhaps even more beautiful.
As a person who is not that sentimental, when Yun Xi was sitting alone in front of the fire, she could not help but have some indifferent thoughts.
For example, the separation between life and death brought about by different life spans.
It shouldn't be like this today.
Yun Xi raised her head, looked at Li Zixiao and Xia Qingyao, and asked, "Want to have barbecue?"
She knew they had been waiting for this sentence.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the two companions nodded quickly in unison.
Yun Xi smiled and took out the materials he had prepared long ago.
Twenty minutes later, the rich and tempting aroma of meat spread, attracting ordinary people in the caravan to look over.
Yun Xi gave most of them to Li Zixiao and Xia Qingyao, picked up two of them herself, then put the rest together and waved to leader Li.
"Come here."
Team Leader Li hurriedly came over with an extremely respectful expression: "What are your orders, sir?"
This is the attitude of ordinary people towards spiritual beings, full of awe.
Yun Xi handed him the remaining skewers: "Let's share it with everyone."
Team leader Li took it with both hands: "Thank you, sir!"
Yun Xi waved her hand.
A few months ago, when Yun Xi first started taking on such tasks, she was not very able to accept such respect and address, and tried to change the attitude of ordinary people towards her. However, after encountering such situations more often, she also
I’m used to it and relieved.
Team leader Li returned to the team with the meat skewers and distributed them to everyone. After a while, a series of exclamations spread.
Yun Xi smiled happily.
Whisper, rustle...
The leaves were blown by the wind, and Yun Xi heard a slight sound from outside the bush, which was the sound of branches breaking. She raised her head and stared into the bush with her black and white eyes.
Then, Yun Xi raised her hand, moved her fingers, and the Yu Xi Sword rushed into the bushes.
"Roar!!!"
The roar of the beast spread instantly, and everyone who had just been praising the delicious barbecue immediately stood up in panic, looking towards the bushes with horrified eyes.
A black shadow appeared in the night, and a huge demon wolf rushed over from the bushes, holding the buzzing Yuxi Sword in its mouth.
This is a spiritual level monster.
"It's a monster!"
When Leader Li saw this monster, he exclaimed. Just as he was about to tell everyone to run into the car, the sound of the sword being unsheathed instantly covered up the lingering sound of the wolf's howl.
Xia Qingyao and Li Zixiao took action at the same time, Wenqing Dao and Bingxuan Sword slashed across the night sky, glowing silver under the moonlight, and their sharp edges disappeared in a flash.
Bang!
The demon wolf fell to the ground, no longer alive.
Chapter completed!
