Chapter 206 Confusion
Chapter 206 Confusion
Yin Twelve asked curiously: "My Lord, who is Xiao Jin?"
The Marquis has only been here for a few days, and he has already made a Miao friend so quickly? Are these Miao people reliable?
Jiang Li smiled: "A friend."
Yin Twelve then remembered her weird "little friends". Who knew what kind of mountain spirit this Xiao Jin was? She didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Yin Er asked, "My Lord, are you all right?"
He and Yin Twelve have Xiangyang Grass, but the Lord and the Marquis have nothing. How come they are not affected by the miasma?
Xie Changan said: "It's okay, don't worry about us, just take care of yourselves."
Yin Er thought of the incident in Zhujia Village. In order to track down Gong Baifeng, the Lord and the Marquis covered their bodies with poisons, but they were not hurt at all. Only then did he feel relieved.
The four of them walked for most of the day, going deeper and deeper, and constantly encountered black fog of varying shades. Fortunately, there was sun grass, so Yin Er and the other two were not seriously injured.
At this time, they found that there was fog in the forest!
Seeing the fog getting thicker and the visibility getting smaller, Xie Changan immediately ordered: "Return the original way!"
When they wanted to return along the path they came from, they found that the path had mysteriously disappeared!
"What's going on?" Yin Er was surprised.
"Is it haunted?" Yin Twelve's face turned pale.
He is good at fighting, but he can't exorcise ghosts!
Xie Changan frowned and said, "We are lost."
He asked Jiang Li: "Do you have any solution?"
Jiang Li attached his spiritual sense to his eyes, looked carefully, and finally found that they had strayed far away from the path!
It was not known whether it was because of the formation or the strange magnetic field here that deceived their eyes and senses, causing them to walk in opposite directions!
She asked Yin Er and the other man to take out a rope and tie it around their waists, and the other end was tied around Xie Changan's waist.
"Just follow me and don't ask why."
"Don't worry if you see any obstacles. If I can get through, you can too."
Xie Changan said in a deep voice: "Okay."
Then, Jiang Li took Xie Changan's hand and led the group of people back to the correct route.
They followed Jiang Li and passed through layer after layer of "obstacles".
Dense bamboo forests, layers of shrubs, huge rocks, and even tree holes...
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief when they finally saw the path they came from.
I almost got lost in this primeval forest!
If she also got lost, she could only send a message to the eagle couple and ask for air rescue.
Yin Twelve broke out in a cold sweat: "This Mihun Pond is really dangerous!"
Xie Changan frowned. It would not be easy for the Chu army to cross the Mihun Pond!
It seems that it is just as Xiao Li Nu said, we can only put our hope on Longmen Tiangong’s “secret weapon”.
After finally walking out of the Mihun Pond, it was already dark.
Duan Nanqi and other generals were getting anxious and were about to lead their troops in to search for the four people.
Seeing figures in the woods from afar, Duan Nanqi hurried forward and asked, "Is it the Marquis and Mr. Xie?"
"It's us." Xie Changan responded loudly.
Duan Nanqi finally felt relieved, but was surprised to see Jiang Li leading a group of people out of the woods.
"But what's the problem?"
Jiang Li said: "The Xiangyang grass can indeed suppress miasma, but I wonder if there is a maze inside, it's really powerful!"
She recounted how they had unknowingly deviated from the direction and nearly got lost, and Duan Nanqi couldn't help but frown.
Xie Changan said: "Thanks to the special skills of Marquis Jing'an, who can see through illusions, we were able to return safely."
Duan Nanqi was shocked: "Don't take any more risks!"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "It's okay. General Duan, please go back first. I still have to wait for a friend here."
She and Xiao Jin made an appointment to meet again in five days, and tonight was the time for the appointment.
She made a contract in her mind again, asking the eagle couple to go back first, and she would summon them if there was anything.
Duan Nanqi guessed that this "friend" should be the one who gave her the Xiangyang grass. It was indeed not very convenient for the Annan army to be here. She repeatedly reminded them to pay attention to safety and then returned to the camp with her personal guards.
The Jinyiwei who stayed outside had already set up the tents, and Qingfeng Mingyue and the other three had prepared the meal. Jiang Li and the others had only eaten dry food in the woods, and they were already starving, so they sat down quickly and ate heartily.
Seeing that Jiang Li had been hungry for a long time, Xie Changan still picked out the fat and threw it into his bowl. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "When can you change your picky eating habits?"
Jiang Li said with a smile: "As long as you are here, it will not change."
With his indulgence, she can do whatever she wants.
Xie Changan felt sweet in his heart and patted her head lovingly: "Okay, then I will eat fat meat for you for the rest of my life. I just hope that you, little raccoon slave, will not despise me in the future."
Jiang Li was stunned. Yes, it would not look good if he was fed until he became fat!
She hurriedly picked up the fat meat in his bowl and gave it to Yin Twelve using the serving chopsticks.
"Brother Twelve, you are too thin. Eat more fatty meat to make up for it!"
Yin Twelve said with a bitter face: "My Lord, I don't want to become a fat man!"
Mingyue and Cuibai, who were serving food nearby, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After the meal, Jiang Li returned to the tent to rest, and Xie Changan still had to work hard to write memorials for her.
Nangong Qinghe asked her to report her itinerary and experiences every day. Jiang Li became too lazy to write after a few days and simply asked Xie Changan to write it for her.
Xie Changan reported every detail of the past few days' events, and emphasized on the efficacy of Xiangyang Grass, as well as the magnetic anomalies and possible mazes in Mihun Pond.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened. A few candles were lit in the tent, and insects or moths would occasionally fly outside the tent.
"what are you writing?"
Suddenly, a tiny voice came to his ear.
Xie Changan was startled. Jiang Li suddenly jumped up from the bed, rushed over, picked up a book, and with a "bang", he knocked a big moth onto the desk.
The big moth squeaked, "Fairy, please have mercy, I am Xiao Jin!"
Jiang Li snorted: "Of course I know it's you, otherwise this moth would have died long ago!"
"What do you want to do? Are you trying to sneak attack my husband while I'm asleep?"
Xiao Jin said awkwardly: "I just want to see what he wrote..."
In fact, it also wanted to test and see if there was any opportunity.
Jiang Li snorted: "If you want to hit on my husband again, I don't want you as my friend anymore!"
Xie Changan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. This poisonous insect had such a high level of cultivation and could find a random body to possess. It was really hard to guard against!
If it weren't for the little raccoon slave, wouldn't it have succeeded?
Jiang Li said to him through the Heart Contract: "Don't worry, we have the Heart Contract. If he wants to take over your body, even if the Heart Contract cannot strangle him, we can fight him to the death!"
Xie Changan was relieved and asked again: "If the fish is dead and the net is broken, will you get hurt?"
Jiang Li thought for a while and said, "Maybe, but with you sharing the burden, I won't be seriously injured."
Can the Heart Contract also share the damage suffered by the fellow Taoists?
Xie Changan said happily: "Okay, then I feel relieved."
He could finally do something for the little raccoon!
She has always been the one standing in front, and as her man, Xie Changan really feels guilty.
