Chapter 286 Mr. Pei

Chapter 286 Mr. Pei

"The Monster Forest has always been a place with few people. The monsters on the outskirts are okay, but the deeper you go, the stronger the monsters become and the less tolerant they are."

After Ju Yunhai finished speaking, he took out four smoking cages from his storage bag.

The two ears of the small incense burner were tied with ropes made of spiritual silk. Ju Yunhai first hung a incense burner around his neck and patted the incense burner hanging around his waist.

There was a fire in the fumigation cage for a moment, and some light smoke came out.

The smoke smells bad. If an ordinary Qi-refining cultivator smells it, he will inevitably feel dizzy.

Fortunately, all six people present had good cultivation.

"This sulfur incense can repel insects and prevent us from being attacked by the poison inside."

Ju Yunhai distributed the other three fumigation cages to Tian Lin and the other two, and only the two holding swords were ignored by him.

It’s not that the two people holding swords were of too low a status that they were ignored by him.

But this fumigation cage and the incense in it were not something that could be obtained casually. He himself did not have much in stock, and was reluctant to share some of it with others.

"Brother Ju, remember to tell me how many spirit stones the incense will cost."

Tian Lin didn't want to take advantage of his friend, but Ju Yunhai said, "Although I am not as rich as Junior Brother Zhou, Junior Brother Tian doesn't have to bother with me for a little incense."

Tian Lin didn't waste any words. He decided to return the gift when he got back.

Everyone hung incense around their waists, but except for Tian Lin and Senior Sister Jia, although Fairy Mei hung incense, she did not light the incense in the incense burner.

She didn't seem to believe in evil and walked into the demon forest first.

The sky had already turned completely dark at this time. Although everyone was a foundation-building cultivator, their eyesight was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

But in the final analysis, it is not easier to see in the demon forest at night than in the demon forest during the day.

The Goddess Sect probably did not have the habit of wearing shoes. Although Mei Xiangu was wearing a Taoist robe and long skirt, she still walked barefoot on the grass and bushes.

She walked very quickly, head down and forward, seemingly completely oblivious to the chirping of insects and birds around her.

Tian Lin and others who followed closely behind her did not speak to dissuade her. They knew that Mei Xiangu was arrogant and did not take their mission seriously.

Then again, Mei Xiangu was an inner sect disciple. Ju Yunhai and Senior Sister Jia wanted to bring Tian Lin into the team because of Mei Xiangu's strength.

Therefore, the more confident Mei Xiangu appeared, the more relaxed they would be, and they would not be dissatisfied with Mei Xiangu's insolence at all.

After walking for several hundred steps, a rustling sound was heard in the forest.

Ju Yunhai whispered "Be careful!" and then he saw several snakes jumping out from under the fallen leaves, on the treetops, and in the bushes.

These snakes did not attack Tian Lin and his companions. After all, Tian Lin and his companions not only had fumigation cages with them, but were also several feet away from them.

Their target was obviously Mei Xiangu who was walking in the front.

Almost as Ju Yunhai was about to speak, Mei Xiangu turned her head to take a look at the poisonous snakes flying towards her.

With three "pa pa pa" sounds, three plum blossoms shot out from the center of Mei Xiangu's eyebrows, cutting the three poisonous snakes into six pieces.

"careful!"

This time, it was Tian Lin instead of Ju Yunhai who shouted "be careful".

A monkey that looked like a mandrill but was larger than a mandrill swooped down from a tree that was three meters high.

The monkey raised his hand and used the iron rod to block the plum blossom shooting out from between the brows of Mei Xiangu.

A mace fell heavily towards Mei Xiangu.

The corners of Mei Xiangu's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a look of disdain.

Everyone only saw that when the monkey demon was more than half a meter above Mei Xiangu's head, a branch suddenly grew out from the giant tree. This branch was a sharpened wooden stake, which directly pierced the monkey demon's belly and scraped out its intestines.

Fairy Mei flicked her sleeves, and the monkey demon instantly broke into two pieces and fell into the bushes in the distance.

There was a rustling sound, and the monkey demon's huge body, including its intestines, was snatched away by several black shadows in the bushes.

But as a few dark shadows flew away, more wild beasts gathered here.

In the pitch-black night, one could only see glowing eyeballs in the bushes, as if countless evil spirits were staring at the people present in the dark.

They are neither in a hurry to move forward nor willing to give way.

Seeing this, Ju Yunhai frowned and said, "There must be a foundation-building monster behind this, otherwise it would never be like this."

Mei Xiangu didn't even frown, she just said coldly: "Stay beside me, or I won't hurt you by mistake."

Tian Lin and others approached Mei Xiangu and saw that Mei Xiangu was still walking forward barefoot.

Just five meters away from her, vines emerged from the ground and kept whipping or piercing the ground within five meters or ten feet away from her.

The sounds of wild beasts howling and birds crying were heard.

There was chaos in the bushes for a while. Countless wild animals fled, leaving behind corpses everywhere.

Seeing this, Senior Sister Jia said sincerely, "Miss Mei's magical powers have reached the level of perfection. With Miss Mei here, we can conquer this demon forest like a piece of plain ground."

Fairy Mei curled her lips in disdain, thinking that Senior Sister Jia was too flattering.

Tian Lin said: "It seems that Miss Mei has entered the threshold of the Way of Wood."

Mei Xiangu snorted coldly in response: "You and I both have Dao seeds, I think your strength is no worse than when you were in Shenxiantang."

"After all, this is not Shenxiantang, and I haven't touched the threshold of the water way. In terms of real strength, I am still far behind Miss Mei."

Tian Lin was telling the truth. He was able to win in Chenxiantang by taking advantage of the situation.

Although he has now cultivated four Dharma bodies, compared to Mei Xiangu who has eaten the Tao seeds, Tian Lin is no match for her.

Seeing that Mei Xiangu was quite powerful, Ju Yunhai and his companions simply extinguished the incense around their waists, which helped them save some money.

At this time, Ju Yunhai was leading the way and Mei Xiangu was walking in front.

The group walked for about two or three hours and finally saw some human figures in the distance.

"The person living over there is a hermit in the late stage of foundation building. We can ask him for directions."

After Ju Yunhai finished speaking, he strode towards the thatched cottage in the distance.

Although the hut was built in the mountain, an open space had already been cleared around it.

As they approached the hut, the lanterns in front of it became brighter.

Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu both looked up at the lantern and couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.

It’s not that they had never seen the human head lantern before, but when they saw this human head lantern, they both thought of the pleasure boat on Chenxiantang.

The human head dragon lantern is a baby's head, but it is swollen like a big wooden basin.

The human head lantern, as big as a wooden basin, was high up and looked down. The opening on the left side said to Ju Yunhai, "Mr. Ju, are you here to collect herbs in the mountains again today?"

Ju Yunhai hurriedly said, "My friend, you misunderstood. I have already completed my task of collecting herbs last time. Today I came to ask Mr. Pei for directions."

The human head lantern said, "My master has gone to bed, but I can help you call him."

Ju Yunhai said "thank you", and the human head lantern floated into the yard and floated in front of the window of the thatched cottage.
