The evening breeze is getting cooler, exuding elegant beauty under the hazy moonlight.

The starlight on the fire was still shining, crackling, but not noisy, adding a touch of vitality to the quiet night.

After a long time, Yuanze opened his eyelids, and his deep almond-shaped eyes looked directly at Chen Qi, who had her eyes closed. She seemed to have fallen asleep, and her chest rose and fell slowly.

The temperature of the wind dropped a lot at night, and there was a hint of chill in the wind.

Yuan Ze frowned, and suddenly a snow-white tail appeared behind him, moving slowly towards Chen Qi, making almost no sound.

When she was half a meter away from Shen Qi's body, she suddenly opened her dark eyes, and her black pupils emitted a strange brilliance under the night light, sweeping straight towards the fox tail.

Shen Qi's eyes flashed, and he was stunned when he saw the tail, and then followed it to Yuan Ze's face.

His face didn't show any guilt at all, and he asked her seriously, "You're not asleep?"

"I fell asleep." She suddenly realized that something was approaching her. Although this force did not give her a sense of danger, she still couldn't help but open her eyes to find out what was going on.

Little did she know that it was him who rushed towards her with his fox tail.

She raised her chin slightly and opened her red lips, "What do you want to do?"

Yuanze retracted his tail and said, "The temperature is a little low tonight. I plan to cover you with my tail."

He slowly lowered his eyes, but he didn't know she was so cautious. His tail was discovered before it even got close to her...

Shen Qi opened her lips slightly, paused, and then continued: "No, there's a fire burning, I'm not cold."

After saying that, she closed her eyes again and didn't look at his expression again.

Yuanze looked at her sleeping face, which was a little colorful in the firelight, flickering and shining.

After his gaze remained fixed for a few seconds, he slowly closed his eyes and leaned against the tree trunk to rest.

The two of them fell asleep that night.

In the early morning, the air is very fresh, the blue sky seems to be without a trace of impurities, and the graceful beauty of peach trees can be seen everywhere.

Shen Qi heard the slightly noisy roar and slowly opened his eyelids.

It was the sound made by the monkey.

At the same time, Yuanze also opened his eyes, and the two looked at each other for a few seconds.

Then Yuanze looked at the roasted rabbit next to her and said, "You can eat it now."

Shen Qi responded lightly, and after washing up, she looked at the burnt-out fire and added another handful of firewood, which burned and heated up the roasted rabbit again.

Yuanze: "Where are you going to look for it later?"

Shen Qi glanced at the other side and pointed, "Let's start looking from there."

Yuan Ze hummed, then said, "I'll be leaving for a while. You go that way later, and I'll meet you there."

"Okay." Shen Qi responded, and then stopped when he saw that the meat on the roasted rabbit was even more burnt.

As soon as Yuanze left, she pulled out the charred parts of the roasted rabbit and ate the tender meat inside. The rabbit meat did not go bad or become unpalatable after being left overnight.

Even after reheating it, it still retains its original flavor and texture and is still as delicious.

After finishing the roasted rabbit in a few bites, Shen Qi cleaned her mouth and walked in the direction she had just mentioned.

There seemed to be fewer monkeys passing by here.

As soon as she woke up, she heard a lot of monkeys screaming and cheering from the other side, which was very noisy.

This place is relatively secluded, perhaps the fairy grass can find a breakthrough.

There are many monkeys over there and it is not easy to find them. The roads here are smooth, so if there are no monkeys, this place can be ruled out.

Looking around, I didn't see any plants related to the fairy grass. Either they were not related or they didn't look similar at all.

On the contrary, the road she was walking on had fewer and fewer green leaves, and looking ahead, there was even a withered peach tree.

Shen Qi frowned slightly. These withered trees were not beautiful. Compared with the place she was just in, there was a big difference.

Moreover, near the mountains here, you can hear the faint sound of water, as if it is flowing down from above.

Among the peach trees nearby, not just one but more than a dozen withered.

Just as she was wondering and wanted to find another way, she saw a monkey jumping down from a steep hill out of the corner of her eye.

Her eyes moved slightly and she walked over there.

The location of the fairy grass is unclear, and its growth environment is also unknown. It is possible that it grows in a crevice.

Thinking of this, she walked quickly to the steep hill and ignored the monkey.

Suddenly, the monkey, who was hanging on the tree by its tail, fell down and saw her with its round eyes. The next second, it was horrified.

It was so frightened that its tail loosened and its head hit the ground heavily. It rubbed its head quickly, climbed up using its hands and feet, and rushed towards Shen Qi.

There was also a grunting sound coming from his mouth, and his tone was rapid and fierce.

Shen Qi heard the noise and looked back, only to see that the monkey had also caught up with her, still shouting.

But she couldn't understand what it said.

Shen Qi frowned, and saw the monkey blocking her way and pointing behind her.

Was this telling her not to go in this direction? To go back?

I don’t know if this is what she meant, but the monkey in front of her saw that she didn’t move at all, so his tone became more urgent, and the movements of his hands became more vigorous.

Shen Qi raised her eyebrows slightly. To verify if this was the reason, she half-turned around, avoided its body, and took a step forward.

Sure enough, the monkey became even more excited and stretched out its hand, trying to grab her hand.

Shen Qi immediately took a step back to avoid its weathered, sharp clawed hand grabbing her.

I have to say, these hands really look like human hands, with wrinkled skin, a bit like tree bark, covered with calluses and rough.

Shen Qi heard his intense and rapid tone again. Although she couldn't understand the words he said, she understood it now.

I just don't want her to step into this area. I want her to go back. As long as she doesn't get close to here, maybe the monkey won't make such actions and expressions towards her.

Seeing that the monkey was about to attack her again, Shen Qi narrowed her eyes slightly. Just as she was about to knock it out, a white fluffy tail suddenly appeared in the air.

She hit the hand of the monkey in front of her that was about to reach out to her, and the monkey's body also took a few steps back.

Shen Qi looked sideways and saw Yuan Ze coming back with wild beasts just like last night, but this time there were a few more.

Yuanze glanced at the monkey calmly, then turned his gaze to her and asked, "What's going on?"

Shen Qi curled her lips and smiled, "It seems to be intentionally stopping me, preventing me from getting closer to the front."

There must be some unspeakable secret in this situation. She felt that there must be something hidden, so they were not allowed to get close to here.

It's not clear whether it has the fairy grass she's looking for, but judging by its cautious actions, there's a high chance it exists.

Or, there are other things in there that cannot be seen...
