As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...
The weather in the mountains was extremely cold. Although it wasn't snowing, the wind was howling, and the bone-chilling cold was very uncomfortable.
After quickly finishing their meal, everyone set up tents in a place that looked somewhat safe. There were more than a dozen tents set up, and Yue Jiuyue and the others naturally shared a tent with Sister Qing.
"Oh dear, it's so cold! It's freezing cold here. Sister Qing, how much longer do you think it will take us to reach our destination? This place is so remote and mountainous. Why does the boss like to come here?"
As Yue Jiuxing laid out her sleeping bag, she asked Qingjie next door.
Qingjie had already crawled into her sleeping bag. When she heard Yue Jiuxing's question, she shook her head and said, "I don't know either. After all, I'm just following the group. You'll have to ask the boss."
"Oh, I see. I thought you knew where we were going. Turns out you didn't know the way either."
Yue Jiuyue also spoke up. She crawled into her sleeping bag and then lay down next to Yue Jiuxing: "Oh well, never mind if I don't know. I'm exhausted from going into the mountains today. I thought the oxcart could go up the mountain, but it couldn't go halfway and I had to walk. It was so tiring."
"Yeah, yeah, I'm so tired. Let's go to sleep early, we still have to walk tomorrow."
Yue Jiuxing closed her eyes to rest, but after they closed their eyes, Qingjie, who was standing next to them, secretly left the tent and went to the big boss's tent.
"So? Haven't they figured out our purpose yet? Or are they just pretending?"
Upon entering the tent, the big boss, who hadn't yet rested, saw Sister Qing come in and asked her, "Usually, anyone who sees you come in can guess what's going on. I seriously suspect that these two girls are pretending to be stupid with me."
"I have my doubts too, but don't worry, boss. What can they do even if they're pretending to be stupid? They're already in the mountains, they'll find out sooner or later. They probably just think they can't escape anyway, so they're just playing dumb."
Sister Qing thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, I've spent so much time with them. Don't be fooled by the fact that they seem like they can ask you anything and you can answer anything. They're actually quite shrewd."
"Yes, I see. That's why you need to keep a close eye on them. The team is short-handed, so we can't lose them."
The big boss took a sip of hot water and said gently, "Besides, we're almost at the right place, so we can't afford any mistakes."
"Okay, I understand."
After chatting for a few minutes in the boss's tent, Sister Qing went back to her own tent. It only took her a few minutes to come out. When she returned, she found that Yue and Jiu were still sleeping, and they hadn't even changed their positions, so she felt at ease and went to sleep as well.
What she didn't know was that Yue Jiuxing and the other man had overheard her conversation with the big boss.
After Qingjie fell asleep, Yue Jiuyue and Yue Jiuxing opened their eyes and secretly discussed some things.
There are people keeping watch at the camp at night, but because there are many of them, it's not the girls' turn yet. Therefore, Yue Jiuxing and the others don't need to go out for shifts.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Yue Jiuxing was woken up by the noise outside. She nudged Yue Jiuyue and said, "Jiuyue, get up. It looks like they're cooking breakfast outside. Should we go out to eat?"
Yue Jiuyue woke up when Yue Jiuxing pushed her, and Qingjie woke up at the same time.
Sister Qing rubbed her eyes and got up, saying, "Let's go, let's have breakfast first. We have to travel today, and time is tight, so don't sleep too long."
"Oh, but aren't we going on vacation? Why are we in such a hurry? Aren't we here for sightseeing?"
Yue Jiuxing suddenly looked at Qingjie and asked, her expression was smiling, but her tone of voice carried a hint of interrogation.
When Sister Qing saw her like this, she seemed to realize something. After staring at the two of them for a while, she smiled and said, "Hehe, you'll find out as you continue on your journey, won't you?"
"Oh, then let's just keep following the group."
Seeing Qingjie's expression, Yuejiuyue knew that she was going to talk things out with them, so she raised an eyebrow and said, "To be honest, we are actually quite interested in some adventure activities."
