Chapter 108 The fish takes the bait
The next day at Qian's house.
"Master, there is a formation in the room of those two people. We can't attack at all. Why don't we go there during the day..."
Qian Sanwan thought about it and was about to nod in agreement.
At this time, Qian Yao walked in and said to her father, "Dad, if you let them go directly, it will easily alert the enemy. Otherwise, it will be safer for me and my senior brother to go and test it out."
"Yao'er's words make sense. I think those two are not incompetent. It would be more reassuring for your father if you and your Senior Brother Sun go."
After Qian Sanwan finished speaking, he waved to the guards and asked them to go away first.
Then he said to Qian Yao, "You guys take a look today to see what their purpose is. If there is no problem, recruit them into our Qian family. After all, we are short of people recently."
"Got it, Dad, I'll do the work, don't worry."
Pei Cangli and his companion were asking on the street how to get to the nearby wilderness forest. After someone on the road pointed them in the direction, the two of them headed in that direction.
As she walked along, Pei Cangli discovered that this was the area where she had stayed when she had just crossed over, and the Wilderness Forest was also the edge of the forest where she had climbed the tree at that time.
The two were not in a hurry to get going, but kept paying attention to the back. After they found two auras following them, Pei Cangli slowly said, "Brother Zhou, do you think we can find it this time?"
"Brother Li, don't worry, I will definitely find it this time and heal your injury."
"Brother Zhou, it's all my fault for not listening to you before. That's why I'm injured now and can't use my spiritual power. From now on, I will listen to you in everything."
"Junior Brother Li, you are still young, so it is normal for you to be impulsive. But luckily, you have the magic weapon that Master gave you this time, so you were only injured. Otherwise, you would not be able to explain to Master when you go back."
Pei Cangli and his companion walked further and further into the forest, which they had not dared to enter before, pretending to search for something while keeping an eye on the movements behind them.
Feeling that the time was almost right, Pei Cangli asked Chui Liu to take the opportunity to come out and act according to last night's plan.
Soon, three monsters slowly surrounded them, and Pei Cangli seemed to have just discovered them. He panicked and pulled Si Yunzhou and said, "Brother Zhou, look, there are three monsters surrounding us. What should we do?"
Si Yunzhou said calmly, "Don't be afraid, Junior Brother Li. Hide behind me and I will take care of them."
As soon as he finished speaking, three monsters pounced on him. Pei Cangli followed behind Si Yunzhou, hiding here and there while quietly attracting the monsters' attention and letting them pounce on him.
Sure enough, one of the monsters took the opportunity to pounce on Pei Cangli, and was about to pounce on her. Pei Cangli deliberately shouted, "Senior Brother Zhou, save me."
Then Si Yunzhou turned around and killed the monster with one sword. It was a fourth-level monster, and it was killed with one blow.
Qian Yao and her senior brother who were following behind were shocked when they saw this. The two cultivators looked young, but they didn't expect that this Zhou had such a good cultivation base.
Qian Yao glanced at her Senior Brother Sun, and the two pretended to have just rushed over from not far away, and said to Pei Cangli and the others, "Daoyou, we were just somewhere else and heard someone shouting for help over here, are you all right?"
After he finished speaking, Si Yunzhou had already killed all three monsters on the ground. Pei Cangli looked like he would listen to his senior brother in everything, and looked at Si Yunzhou, waiting for his answer.
Si Yunzhou pretended to look at the newcomer with a vigilant look, and said calmly, "It's nothing, we have solved it."
Qian Yao looked at Si Yunzhou and asked with a smile, "I don't know the names of the two Taoist friends yet?"
"I'm in the next week, this is my junior fellow apprentice Li Cangpei. Who are you?"
Qian Yao hurriedly stepped forward and answered, "I am Qian Yao, and this is my senior brother Sun Shang. Are you two here to hunt monsters? We can go together."
Si Yunzhou shook his head and said, "We are not here to hunt monsters, but my junior brother was injured, and the medicine for his treatment is missing a kind of spiritual herb. We heard that there is one here, so we came to look for it."
"Then I wonder what spiritual herb Fellow Daoist Li is missing? We are nearby and may have seen it before."
"June frost. I wonder if Daoist Qian has ever seen it?"
Qian Yao turned her head and looked at Sun Shang. They looked at each other and shook their heads.
Sun Shang was worried that the other party would not go with them because they didn't know, so he quickly said, "Although we don't know, we can go back and ask the elderly at home, maybe they know."
Qian Yao also said, "Don't worry, my father is the head of the Qian family nearby, he must know."
Si Yunzhou and Pei Cangli looked at each other, and they both bowed and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Qian and Master Qian."
Qian Yao simply waved her hand and said, "These are all trivial matters, don't worry about them."
Seeing that two people were left behind, Sun Shang wanted to see if they were worth winning over, so he said, "My junior sister and I still need to hunt down a few more monsters before we can go back. I wonder if you two..."
Pei Cangli said quickly, "That's perfect. The four of us can take care of each other. After all, there are only my senior brother and I, and my senior brother is the only one who can protect me."
After saying this, he looked at Sun Shang and the others apologetically and said, "It's all my fault. I've dragged you down. Maybe I'll drag you down too."
"You're right. Before Junior Brother Li was injured, he always took care of me. Now that you're injured, I should take care of you."
Sun Shang also said, "Fellow Daoist Li, this is wrong. We are all cultivators, so we should help each other."
After saying that, he wanted to go up and pat Pei Cangli on the shoulder, but Si Yunzhou quickly grabbed Sun Shang's hand, shook it twice, and said with a smile, "Daoyou Sun, what you said makes sense."
Sun Shang thought to himself, he was just patting Junior Brother Li's shoulder to comfort him. Could it be that Junior Brother Li's injury was only on his shoulder?
Qian Yao saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so she said, "Let's keep going forward and try to kill a few third-level monsters today so that we can report to Dad when we get back."
When Pei Cangli heard this, she asked, "You are a young lady, do you still have to come out and hunt monsters yourself every day? Isn't this what a guard should do?"
Qian Yao's expression collapsed for a moment, but recovered in the blink of an eye. "It's because my father wanted to train me. I heard that a female cultivator won first place in the ten-year competition. When my father found out, he asked me to train more."
This Li Cangpei, if it weren't for you, Qian Yao would have to hunt monsters herself. It was never what she wanted, and the next day the things were placed on her desk.
Pei Cangli deliberately replied, "I've also heard of the female cultivator you mentioned. Her name seems to be Pei Cangli. She's a powerful character."
Qian Yao muttered in dissatisfaction, "It's because of the Pei family's inheritance, otherwise I can do it too."
"Fellow Daoist Qian, what did you just say? I didn't hear you."
Qian Yao forced a fake smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, I think Pei Cangli is really amazing."
"Of course, I want to be that kind of person in the future. I heard that Pei Cangli is not even thirty years old yet, but he has already reached the middle stage of Jindan."
After saying that, he looked Qian Yao up and down, and asked with an ignorant look on his face, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Qian, how old are you now?"
Si Yunzhou pretended to cough twice and said, "Junior brother, don't ask other female cultivators about their ages casually. This is not what a gentleman does."
"Brother, you are really thoughtful. If Fellow Daoist Qian is younger than Pei Cangli, it's understandable. But if he is older than Pei Cangli, it would be too embarrassing."
After that, he bowed to Qian Yao, and then said apologetically, "Fellow Daoist Qian, I was inconsiderate. I'm sorry."
Qian Yao's face was about to turn green with anger, but she still pretended to be generous and said, "It's okay."
