Chapter 41
It is now spring, and many hibernating animals have begun to come out and move around.
Jiang Chaoge has seen many strange and strange beasts. Occasionally, he sees some normal mountain beasts. He feels very friendly and tastes particularly delicious.
Jiang Chaoge couldn't help but sigh these days. His flesh ached when he thought of the long snake corpses they left in Twin Peaks. Before he left, he discussed with Yu Renshu and Tianrong about going back to get them, but he was given a blank look in the end.
, had no choice but to give up. Qi Lingfeng must have received the news that everything was cheaper for them.
However, there is something more troublesome for him right now, that is, recently Zhi Xuan and Zui You suddenly came closer, hiding aside and whispering something from time to time. Not only did he feel that Zhi Xuan was panicking, but even Long Xiang felt that
It was very awkward, but Long Xiang cherished words like gold, and he always felt that Zui You would lead Zhi Xuan to harm, and later he took Zhi Xuan away when he saw them together.
Daliang City is still clearly visible, and it can be resisted by just climbing over another hill.
Halfway up the mountain, they met a little girl who was hunting alone. The girl was only about ten years old. Her body was dirty, her face was a little tanned, but her eyes were particularly bright. She was holding a bamboo bow.
Riding a black mastiff spirit beast that was even bigger than her, she was chasing a deer, whizzing past them not far away.
Jiang Chaoge sighed: "A child of such a young age has to go out hunting."
Long Xiang said a little coldly: "A soul soldier born into poverty has to bear a lot of responsibilities. If he signs a contract with a noble since he was a child, he will basically have to work for the nobles all his life. A soul soldier who has been trained since childhood
, it is completely ready to be 'used' at this age."
Jiang Chaoge asked curiously: "Where did you learn your soul power skills and martial arts?"
Long Xiang turned his head silently, obviously not intending to answer this question.
Jiang Chaoge was used to the child's indifference, so he didn't ask much. However, he could probably guess that after he was sold to Tianling Continent, the buyer discovered that he had soul consciousness, and the soul weapon was naturally more than just a toy.
The "red-haired monkey" they used was valuable, so they began to train him. After his wings hardened, he ran away. After all, he was not from Tianling Continent and had some hatred for this place. Naturally, he would not have any spirit of contract.
After a while, a mastiff roared impatiently in the distance, and a row of trees in front shook violently, as if something was coming. Then came the roar and hissing of the mastiff.
Yu Renshu frowned and said, "They may have encountered something. Tianrong, go over and take a look."
Tianrong sped up and jumped into the forest after a few ups and downs. At this time, they saw the mastiff that had just passed by them, carrying the little girl on its back and starting to run back desperately. It had multiple injuries on its body and a white coat.
Behind He Xue, seven or eight large ape-like beasts with white heads and red feet were flying among the branches and chasing them at extremely fast speeds.
"That's Zhu Yan." Yu Renshu said: "Tianrong, drive them away."
Suddenly, a Zhu Yan swung hard with the force of a branch and pounced on the mastiff. The little girl barely wanted to raise the bow, but it was difficult to keep her balance on the fleeing mastiff. Zhu Yan was suddenly thrown away from the mastiff.
He was knocked out and flew away!
When everyone arrived, they were too late. Ruan Qiansu threw out the Zhengchen Yue and knocked down Zhu Yan from the mastiff. Tianrong rushed over and roared twice, and the Zhu Yan immediately became birds and beasts.
The mastiff got up from the ground, ran to the little girl covered in blood, nuzzled her motionless body with its nose, stamped its paws on the ground impatiently, and made a helpless and sad sound.
Everyone ran over to take a look and saw that the little girl was thrown more than ten meters away. Her head was covered in blood and her eyes were closed tightly. It looked horrifying.
Ruan Qiansu hurriedly knelt down and checked, "If she's still alive, send her to the city quickly." She carefully picked up the little girl from the ground. The mastiff barked nervously around her, so she simply took the mastiff back.
In that bow.
Everyone speeded up and rushed to Daliang City. As soon as they entered the city, someone recognized the little girl and said she was a child from a courtyard on the outskirts of the city, so they sent her to the outskirts of the city.
The so-called suburban compound turned out to be equivalent to an orphanage. When they got there, they realized that there were more than 40 children without parents living in this compound, living together.
As soon as they entered the door, several children gathered around them, shouting "Sister Jiaojiao" in all directions, and almost cried in anxiety.
At this time, an old man with gray hair on his temples walked out of a dilapidated bungalow. He said in surprise: "Jiaojiao? What's wrong with Jiaojiao?"
Jiang Chaoge explained: "She encountered Zhu Yan while hunting and was injured."
"Quickly, send her in quickly."
Yu Renshu said in surprise: "Are you a soul guide?"
The old man glanced at him and had no time to pay attention to him. He hurriedly called on some older children to prepare things for him.
Jiang Chaoge was also surprised. Soul guides were very respected in this world because of their small number and great role, and they were generally very wealthy. However, this old man's clothes were old and he still lived in such a rough place with a group of street children.
It's somewhat strange that even if you are kind-hearted and want to help these children, you don't need to eat and sleep with them.
After Ruan Qiansu put Jiaojiao into the house, the old man took out a bunch of herbs. He first disinfected Jiaojiao and stopped the bleeding. Then he applied the herbs to Jiaojiao's wounds. He covered her head with his withered hands and closed it.
Eyes, words muttered in mouth, palms glowing slightly.
This is the first time Jiang Chaoge has seen a soul guide heal someone's injuries. It is said that the best soul guide is someone who not only understands human medical skills but also has strong soul power. Such a soul guide can survive as long as the person is still breathing.
Today, even if a person is missing arms or legs, he can be completely repaired.
However, the more serious the injury, the longer it takes. Sometimes it may take several months to save a dying person. Soul guides have to expend countless energy and soul power, so minor illnesses and small calamities are not a problem for the soul.
The guide can treat it, but if it is a serious injury, it depends on whether the soul guide is willing to treat it. This will most likely involve money and prestige, so the status of the soul guide is evident. I am afraid that Yu Renshu has never seen such a downturn.
The Earth Soul Guide was therefore particularly surprised.
They were really lucky. As soon as they entered Daliang City, they met a soul guide who seemed to be of a good level. Now they didn't have to look for him hard. They simply waited outside.
Three hours later, the old man came out a little tired.
Jiang Chaoge said: "How is Jiaojiao?"
"It's okay, just recover for a few days." The old man wiped his sweat and bowed slightly, "Thank you, adults, for helping me."
"We are not adults, just travelers passing through this place." Jiang Chaoge pointed at Yu Renshu, "Our friend was injured and came to Daliang City just to find the soul guide."
The old man said: "No problem, but my soul power is not very advanced. This time I need to rest for at least three days to heal Jiao Jiao. There is also a superb soul guide in the east of the city. I have seen a few adults who are not short of money.
You can go find him."
Jiang Chaoge thought for a while and felt that they would be as low-key as possible. If they moved too much, their whereabouts would be easily exposed. He and Yu Renshu looked at each other and found that Yu Renshu had the same opinion as him, so he said: "No, we still have
Wait until you recover. I wonder what you would call me?"
"Just call me Uncle He."
"Uncle He, your yard is so big, can you clean up a few rooms for us and we will pay you."
Uncle He hurriedly waved his hands, "No, no, you saved Jiaojiao, I should thank you, please wait a moment." He immediately went to arrange for someone to clean the room.
Children of all sizes in the yard looked at them curiously, whispering, but did not dare to come near.
In order not to attract attention, Tianrong and Zuiyou both returned to their weapons. Only Zhi Xuan refused to go back and nestled in Jiang Chao Ge's arms to play with his hair. Since Zhi Xuan forbade Jiang Chao Ge from cutting his hair, Jiang Chao Ge had to secretly
He cut it a little bit at a time, after all, he was still not used to long hair, but even so, his hair was about to reach his shoulders. Zhi Xuan lay on his shoulder, just enough to bite his hair and pull it around. Jiang Chaoge had the guts to carry his hair with him.
The illusion of a cat, "Little ancestor, why do you always bite my hair?"
Zhi Xuan said in a dull voice: "I'm happy to."
"Are you unhappy because I don't let you talk to Zuiyou?"
"Nonsense, you are a servant, don't take care of me."
"Don't you hate naughty foxes?"
"yes."
"and you……"
"But he knows a lot of things."
Jiang Chao Ge squinted at him: "For example?"
"I'm too lazy to tell you." Zhi Xuan turned his head to the other side and rested his head on Jiang Chaoge's shoulder.
"He can know something useful. If you want to hear a story, I'll tell you about my world."
"No, you can't even kiss."
Jiang Chaoge choked, "How do you know?" He thought to himself, I don't need to use it on you.
"If you can do it, then it should be comfortable, as the fox said." Zhi Xuan snorted coldly: "It's useless. It's okay if your soul power is weak. Why can't you do things that humans should be able to do?"
Jiang Chaoge was speechless.
At this time, Jiaojiao walked out of the room. Except for the lack of blood on her face, she looked pretty good and the wound on her head had healed.
A child shouted: "Sister Jiaojiao, grandpa won't let you get up."
"It's okay." Jiao Jiao touched his head, walked towards Jiang Chaoge and others, and said weakly and a little shyly: "Sir, did you save me?"
Jiang Chaoge pointed at Ruan Qiansu and said, "It's her."
Jiaojiao looked at Ruan Qiansu without blinking and smiled shyly: "Sister, thank you."
Ruan Qiansu looked at her bright eyes and couldn't help but curl his lips, "You're welcome."
Yu Renshu asked: "Does this large compound of yours depend on you for hunting?"
Jiaojiao shook her head and sighed: "I mainly rely on grandpa, but grandpa's soul power is not very high, he can't afford many auxiliary medicines, and he is unwilling to sign contracts with nobles, so he can't make much money."
"This is the first time I have seen such a poor soul guide." Yu Renshu frowned, "Even a soul guide with weak soul power can still live a very prosperous life."
Jiao Jiao opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing. She paused and said, "Sir, please have a good rest here. Jiao Jiao will definitely remember your life-saving grace."
Jiang Chaoge suddenly thought of Mr. Meng. Mr. Meng had always been poor, but at that time his cultivation as a soul guide was really weak and he could hardly practice medicine. This Uncle He was more than a star and a half better than Mr. Meng. This handsome guy
The way Jiao hesitated to speak clearly meant that there was something inside, but it had nothing to do with him. Thinking of Mr. Meng, he immediately remembered his other purpose of coming to Daliang City, to find the man named Wang Qin. He immediately asked: "
Jiaojiao, is there a person named Wang Qin in Daliang City? He is probably someone with soul consciousness."
Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said, "Wang Qin... I've never heard of it."
Jiang Chaoge didn't expect to find it all at once. He planned to take a rest and investigate further.
After Uncle He prepared the room for them, he also entertained them with decent meals. Jiang Chaoge looked at Yu Renshu's frowning expression and decisively took out a few silver coins and gave them to Uncle He, asking him to make some in the past few days.
OK.
