Chapter 160 Heading to Yangzhou Prefecture



Jumping out of the car, Qin Yuesheng thrust the Demonic Evil Blade into the ground, then stretched himself to loosen up his muscles.

A crackling sound like frying beans suddenly came out from his body, which made Qin Han feel creepy.

"When I was walking before, I had to sleep in the wild at night. I didn't expect that now that I have a carriage, I still get the same treatment." Qin couldn't help but smile helplessly.

This was the first time in Qin Yuesheng's life that he had to spend the night outdoors. He felt strangely amused for a moment and said, "Wait here for me. I'll go get some game."

"Then you must be careful, cousin Yuesheng."

Qin Ke knew Qin Yuesheng's ability very well. When he was bewitched by the female ghost, it was Qin Yuesheng who helped him and saved him from the trap of the red powder.

"Don't worry." Qin Yuesheng immediately rushed into the dense forest beside the official road and soon disappeared from the sight of Qin Huan and the others.

"Sir, I'll go collect some firewood and start a fire." The driver said to Qin Huan.

"Let me help you."

"Hey! This is absolutely not allowed."

"It's okay, I can do it. I'm not that valuable. It's settled." Qin Huan said with a smile.

He rushed quickly through the forest, and any tree that stood in Qin Yuesheng's way was cut in two by his sword. He rushed straight down with an unstoppable momentum, like a landslide.

A frightened bird spread its wings and tried to fly into the sky. Qin Yuesheng was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and he pulled out a flying knife and swung it out.

call out!

Then there was the sound of breaking wind, and the bird was hit right in the belly.

The bird let out a mournful cry and suddenly fell from mid-air.

"One doesn't seem to be enough to eat." Qin Yuesheng grabbed the flying bird's neck and continued searching in the dense forest.

It has to be said that the wild animal resources in this place are quite rich. After a few rounds, Qin Yuesheng found three pheasants and a spotted deer.

After killing them one by one, Qin Yuesheng found a vine to tie up their legs, hung them on the Demonic Evil Blade and prepared to go home.

When night fell completely, a fire had been lit near the carriage. Qin Huan and the coachman were squatting beside the fire and adding firewood into it.

Qin Yuesheng sat nearby and used a throwing knife to peel and skin the prey he had caught. The scene was unusually quiet, and everyone was concentrating on the task at hand.

"Uncle, when can we see him on the Baoqing official road?" Qin Yuesheng looked up and asked.

"We should be able to arrive at Jiaqingji by noon tomorrow," the driver replied.

Jiaqingji, also known as Jiaqing Market, is a populated place on the Baoqing official road. Its existence is similar to that of a service station on a highway. It was established by the government for passers-by to stop and rest.

"Oh." Qin Yuesheng nodded.

After quickly finishing their meals, the three of them found a clean and cool place near the fire to rest.

Most of the day was spent in the carriage. Except for Qin Yuesheng, the coachman and Qin Huan were basically unable to hold on.

The coachman was fine, after all, he had been used to it for many years and had already developed a resistance to it. But Qin Huan was the one who suffered. The bumpy ride in the carriage almost broke his thing into four pieces.

As soon as they lay down on the ground, unstoppable fatigue and sleepiness instantly flooded their minds, and soon they both fell asleep quickly. The driver even snored excessively.

Qin Yuesheng sat cross-legged and practiced the Xuantian Sutra. For him, sleeping could be completely replaced by practice, and it could also serve as a night watchman.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of dull bell sounds suddenly came from the distant mountains and forests, and Qin Yuesheng immediately opened his eyes.

It should have been two hours since then. The sudden strange sound from the silent surroundings naturally attracted Qin Yuesheng's attention.

"Where does the bell come from?" The groom quickly woke up from his sleep. Although he snored in his sleep, he was much more alert than Qin.

Looking at Qin Huan who was still sleeping, Qin Yuesheng walked over and pulled him up from the ground.

"Don't sleep, there's movement."

"What, what happened?" Qin asked vaguely, rubbing his eyes.

But then he also heard the strange bell sound.

"Uncle, are there any temples or Taoist temples nearby?" Qin Yuesheng asked.

"No, I've never heard of it." The driver shook his head very confidently.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The bell showed no sign of stopping and continued to echo in the deep mountains and forests.

After about ten breaths, the bell finally stopped ringing.

But Qin Yuesheng's ears still echoed with the sound of the bells, as if he were hallucinating.

"Something's wrong." Qin Yuesheng picked up the Demon Blade. "I'll go over and see what's going on. You two wait here. Don't leave the carriage until I come back. If anything strange happens, don't wait for me. Just drive the carriage and escape along the official road. I'll meet you at Jiaqingji tomorrow."

Qin also advised: "Cousin Yuesheng, I think it's better to forget it. The sound of the bell is strange. Why bother yourself with trouble? It's so dangerous."

However, he did not know that as an official of the Seven Stars Supervisory Copper Toad, Qin Yuesheng was responsible for solving all the strange and mysterious incidents in the Jiangnan area.

The Baoqing official road is the closest to Qingyang City. If there is something sneaky or weird that makes things worse, the matter will eventually fall on Qin Yuesheng and he will have to deal with it.
