Chapter 38 Familiar Road



"...That villain never told San Zong his name, but one time, someone contacted him, and San Zong heard him say, 'No one has ever escaped the clutches of Feng Qianzhan!'"

Xia Chujian thought to himself that the killer was actually Feng Qianzhan.

When she gets back, she will go to Starnet to check this person out.

Given this person's status, it shouldn't be hard to deduce who would find this person and entrust him with a task...

Xia Chujian was still lost in thought when Ping Qiong came out of the shower.

Xia Chujian didn't say anything more. He yawned and lay down on the small bed he had converted from a seat.

Ping Qiong was also tired. After eating, drinking and taking a bath, she just wanted to have another sleep, which would be the ultimate happiness in the world.

By nine o'clock in the evening, Xia Chujian and Ping Qiong were already fast asleep.

The pig-headed humanoid Sanzhu opened his eyes.

Sanzong looked at the puppy huddled beside him and quietly pushed its head with his finger.

The puppy was staggering and had to be pushed several times before he woke up.

It opened its bright black eyes and looked at Sanzong in confusion, as if it didn't understand why he woke it up.

Sanzong slowly stood up, held the puppy in his arms, then bent his body and moved step by step to the hatch of the aircraft.

He turned around and quietly glanced at the dim aircraft cabin, making sure that the two humans were asleep and would not wake up. Then he gently opened the aircraft's door a crack, leaned sideways and got out, and quickly closed the door.

But in just the blink of an eye, the extremely cold air outside the aircraft spread into the aircraft.

Ping Qiong muttered a few words in her sleep and pulled her coat tighter, which served as a blanket.

Xia Chujian woke up the moment Sanzong stood up.

Because she always remembers that she is an ordinary person without mental power, she is more vigilant than others when performing tasks outside, worried that she will be cheated by those genetic evolvers who have evolved mental power.

This habit also keeps her alert even in her dreams.

She quietly stood up, put on Ping Qiong's helmet, picked up her Destroyer 800 fully automatic submachine gun hanging beside the cot, and then carried her Judge No. 7 sniper rifle on her back, and followed Sanzong out of the aircraft.

The nights in the far north of the Strange Beast Forest are much colder than the days.

The temperature was still minus 80 degrees Celsius during the day, and at night it dropped below minus 100 degrees Celsius.

Fortunately, she had self-heating gloves, otherwise she wouldn't be able to hold the gun steady.

As soon as she jumped out, she just needed to sleep on the griffin Saker Falcon next to the aircraft.

The yellow crystal eyes looked at Xia Chujian and tilted her head, as if she didn't understand why she came out.

Xia Chujian raised a finger to his mouth, signaling the griffin to stop barking.

The griffin blinked, then lowered its head, buried it in the warm feathers under its wings, and continued to sleep.

Xia Chujian looked at it meaningfully, and followed Sanzong and Xiaogouzi's steps forward.

Sanzong was holding the puppy and was not walking fast.

The ground was covered with snow, and at night it was frozen solid in many places.

The strong wind was still howling, making bursts of roars between heaven and earth.

Sanzong couldn't walk upright in some places, so he lay on the ground, carried the puppy on his back, and crawled forward.

Xia Chujian followed behind him and felt uncomfortable too.

However, she was not barefoot like Sanmang, but wore long boots made of exotic animal fur obtained from the association.

The soles of those boots have special anti-slip measures.

Even in such harsh weather conditions, she could still move forward steadily, but not very fast.

After walking in the dark for about twenty minutes, Sanzong, carrying the puppy on his back, turned east and west and arrived at the nearby woods.

Xia Chujian narrowed his eyes.

Looking through the eyepiece of her helmet, this should be the same forest she saw when she first came here.

It’s neither far nor close to the aircraft.

What is Three-Mane doing there?

Xia Chujian didn't want to think too badly of Sanzong, but she had to be vigilant.

After all, she had only known this pig-headed humanoid for less than a day.

Sanmane had no idea that someone was following him.

He finally climbed into the woods from the hard and slightly slippery snow with the puppy on his back.

There isn't as much snow here and the ground isn't frozen solid.

He stood up, breathed a sigh of relief, took the puppy off his back, held it in his arms, and continued walking forward.

After walking for another thirty minutes, they came to a moonlit clearing deep in the woods.

Xia Chujian followed behind him and was also shocked by the scene.

This open space is estimated to be about one acre in size.

Towering trees surrounded the edge of the clearing, like a tall wall, tightly enclosing the clearing.

The bright moonlight fell from the night sky, covering the open space.

The soil layer in this open space is also different from that in other places.

The soil layer exposed among the scattered snow is pure black, very fine and uniform.

Right in the center of that pure black soil layer, there are several blood unicorns growing!

It can only be described as "a nest"!

Xia Chujian was stunned.

She couldn't help but count them secretly.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!

There are a total of nine blood unicorns!

Under the moonlight, the green plants growing on the pure black soil are very conspicuous.

A gust of wind blew, and the branches rustled, but it did not affect the blood unicorn at all.

They stretch their branches in the moonlight and are trying hard to grow.

San Zong looked at the blood qilins, sighed with satisfaction, and said to Xiao Gouzi, "Xiao Si Xi, these blood qilins will be mature in a while. Let's dig them up and bring them back to the lady!"

The little dog whispered: "Wulf! Wulf!"

It swung its little tail in Sanzong's arms and rubbed its head. When it turned around, it saw Xia Chujian standing behind Sanzong!

The little dog opened his eyes wide and shouted even louder: "Wolf! Wolf!"

San Zong patted its back and said, "What's wrong? Is it too cold? Oh, isn't Xiao Sixi's nest nearby? Do you want Xiao Sixi to go back to the nest and sleep for a while? Wait until San Zong digs out all the blood unicorns, then call Xiao Sixi."

The puppy became anxious and struggled violently.

Xia Chujian felt embarrassed and coughed twice softly.

The two coughs were like a bomb, exploding in Sanzong's ears.

Sanzong's body suddenly stiffened.

After a while, Xia Chujian had already walked up to him. Looking at the blood qilin in the middle of the clearing, his eyes sparkled as he said, "Are these all the blood qilin this year?"

Sanzong shuddered, nodded, and stammered, "Yes... yes... yes... the Blood Qilin only produces ten plants a year..."

He had dug one before, and now there are nine left.

"You knew it a long time ago?" Xia Chumian continued to ask with a blank expression.

Three Manes nodded: "Three Manes smells it..."

"You didn't tell that Feng Qianzhan?"
