"My friend sent a message via carrier pigeon saying that he encountered a very difficult monster and needs my help. There is no time to lose. I think we should leave now."
"Okay." Jiang Yubai nodded, "Have you finished your work?"
"It's just a letter. Just ask the waiter to do the errand and send it."
"You're not coming in?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Qingran supported himself on the window frame and jumped into the house.
"I'm going to check out. You go find the waiter and ask him to take the message." After saying that, Jiang Yubai opened the door and went downstairs.
Hua Qingran followed behind him and looked at his back. She felt that he was taking over the reins.
After putting the wooden sign back on the counter, Jiang Yubai watched her and gave instructions to the waiter.
Following his gaze, Hua Qingran was slightly stunned, "Let's go."
Jiang Yubai nodded. "I'm going to buy some things. Can you wait for me at the city gate? It won't take long."
"Um."
After leaving the city, Hua Qingran looked at him, "You have the Speed Talisman, right?"
Jiang Yubai took out two.
She asked with some doubt, "The speeding charm you drew, isn't it the kind that will explode when you stick it on?"
"Yes, do you want to use it?" He exchanged for the other two. "It is indeed faster."
"Try it." Hua Qingran took one of the talismans from his hand and pulled out another one from his treasure bag, "Exchange it with you."
"Yeah." Jiang Yubai put the one she had changed away neatly.
Hua Qingran's eyes showed a hint of doubt. Why did he feel like he was treating him like a treasure? Aren't they all the same?
Jiang Yubai followed behind her as he watched her put on the talisman.
Perhaps because she was not familiar with the speed at which he drew the talismans, she could not help but fall forward.
Jiang Yubai's heart tightened and he wanted to reach out to help her.
But she straightened herself up and glanced at him sideways, "It's just that I'm not used to it for a while."
Jiang Yubai withdrew his hand.
She has a very strong waist.
Jiang Yubai followed her and stepped on the branches and tree trunks in the mountains and forests for leverage, and walked quickly all day.
The setting sun shines on the top of the clouds, and the afterglow of the setting sun spreads out like beautiful clouds.
Hua Qingran stopped and looked up at the small village in front of him immersed in the graceful evening rhyme.
Jiang Yubai walked into the village before her.
There was curling smoke and a gentle breeze. It looked like a very ordinary small village, but there was a strong aura of evil and bad luck.
Hua Qingran touched the Wanbao Bag, which was the green purse hanging around his waist, and a bamboo tube appeared in his hand.
She opened the bamboo stopper, tilted her head back and took a sip of water.
When she looked up, she saw Jiang Yubai looking at the surrounding scenery and his eyes fell on her, and their gazes met.
She touched her purse again and put a bamboo tube into his hand. "Yes, whoever sees it gets a share."
"Thank you." Jiang Yubai followed her example and opened the cork, then took a sip.
Very sweet.
Two little boys, about four or five years old, were clinging to the wall and cautiously watching the two people entering the village.
Hua Qingran glanced at them, then looked at Jiang Yubai, and seeing that there was no expression on his face, he asked, "Is it delicious?"
She drank a little sweet water on purpose.
Jiang Yubai nodded, "It tastes good."
Then he looked at the two timid children.
When the two children saw him looking at them, they ran away quickly.
The doors of every household in this village were tightly closed, and Jiang Yubai could hear the villagers' conversations in the houses.
"You two disobedient brats, you went out? Are you trying to save your life? I told you not to go out after the sun goes down!"
Then a woman's voice came, "Why don't you listen? What will I do if I'm captured by a monster?"
"Mom, I won't dare to do it next time!"
"Why is there another person here? Is it not a monster?"
"She's so pretty, she must be a monster!"
…
The villagers looked out through the crack in the door.
"The last few people who came to the village were monsters, and these two must be monsters too!"
"Dad, Mom, please protect your son from the spirits in heaven. Why are these damn monsters coming to our little village?!"
