"Yes, young master."
Guo Xin knew that Chen Li was not that kind of person. He had always had the most vicious eyesight, but the people around him were different. It was not a bad thing for them to be on guard, and he would not blame them.
After they were no longer on the same road, Chen Li sped up his pace and continued forward for two days, finally without encountering any more problems.
But I have to say that sometimes things develop in strange ways.
That evening, Chen Li entered a mountain range. There were naturally no inns here, so he had to sleep in the wild.
He led Chi Yan into a forest to hunt and soon caught a wild rabbit. He skillfully built a fire, skinned and boned the rabbit, and then put it on the fire.
It didn't take long for the fragrance to waft out. He took out two buns from the space and put them on the fire to roast the crust until it was crispy. The buns were already hot, so they would be ready soon.
While eating buns, Chen Li paid attention to the surrounding environment and made plans for where to stay tonight.
After a while, I saw a big and sturdy tree. This was it for now.
The rabbit was roasted quickly, and cumin and chili were sprinkled on it from the space. The aroma was so fragrant that it reached the top of the head.
After taking a few bites, he heard a slight movement coming from the woods in the distance. He subconsciously used his mental power to check, and the next second, he saw a familiar face inside.
It was Lu Jing, and the people next to him were Guo Xin and the others. How did these two completely different people get together?
If it were just Guo Xin and the others, Chen Li would not want to get involved in this mess, but Lu Jing was there, and there was a group of people behind them who seemed to be chasing them.
After extinguishing the fire, he quickly dealt with the rabbit and led Chiyan aside without tying it to a tree. This way, if a fight broke out later, it could dodge by itself and avoid being accidentally hurt.
Touching Chi Yan's head, he said, "If Chi Yan starts fighting later, remember to hide yourself. Don't stand there like an idiot. Got it?"
“Wheeze~”
Chi Yan rubbed his head against Chen Li's arm, then lowered his head and rubbed her palm.
Chen Li knew the meaning of its action, and she produced a few spiritual fruits from her palm and stuffed them into its open horse mouth.
On the other side, among the crowd running in the woods, Guo Xin would look back from time to time to see if anyone was catching up with him. When he saw the sky was getting dark, his brows unconsciously frowned.
"Master Lu, what kind of Dingxi do you have in your hand? Why are the people behind you holding on to it so tightly?"
Lu Jing's expression was sullen and not very pleasant. "Master Guo, this thing is very important and cannot be taken by them."
Guo Xin's expression was not good either. He whispered back, "I know that too, but you've also seen how many brothers I've lost on this trip. We're still far from where you're going. If we don't completely eliminate the people behind us, I'm afraid we won't be able to deliver Young Master Lu and this thing safely."
Lu Jing: "Master Guo, I know, you guys just do your best. If it doesn't work, I would rather destroy the things than give them to them."
Seeing his attitude, Guo Xin also understood that this thing might have a complicated origin.
"Okay," he turned to the people beside him and said, "Brothers, speed up and try to leave the people behind you behind. Have a good rest tonight."
"yes."
Lu Jing was also feeling regretful at this moment. If he had worked harder and improved his kung fu in the past two years, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
If only Sister Ali were here!
Lu Jing shook his head secretly and quickly shook this idea out of his mind. How could he think like this?
These people are too dangerous. We cannot bring these troubles to the Shen family, let alone to Shen Li.
The group quickened their pace and found a cave to stay in before dark. The cave was in a hidden location, and since they had cleared the way, it would take some time for the people behind them to find it.
However, the distance between them was not too far, and those people probably thought that they were hiding, so they wanted to take advantage of this time difference to have a good rest.
After hiding the cave entrance, they sat in the cave in the dark, took out some dry food and started to eat it. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was eerily quiet.
Chen Li had been paying attention to the movements over there, and naturally listened to the conversation between him and Guo Xin. She was naturally curious about the thing they mentioned, but she was not yet to the point of having to know it.
I had always thought that the people at Mingyue Villa acted in a mysterious way, but I didn’t expect that the box actually belonged to Lu Jing.
The two of them knew each other and had a good relationship. It would have been fine if they didn't know, but now that they know, they can't pretend not to know.
After thinking about it, he put the red flame into the space, used his lightness skills, and went to rest near their cave. This way, if someone came close, he could remind them in the first time.
Sure enough, in less than two hours, the group of people behind caught up, and there were quite a few of them.
Chen Li witnessed the whole process. These thirty people had searched the entire forest thoroughly before finding this place. This shows their perseverance.
If you use this perseverance on other things, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
If they hadn't met Chen Li, they might have succeeded. Now, hehe!
Sorry!
They had no choice but to return empty-handed!
Before they got close, Chen Li threw a stone into the cave, instantly waking up Lu Jing, Guo Xin and others in the cave.
"What's wrong?"
The two of them opened their eyes instantly and asked in unison in low voices.
As it turned out, the cave was too dark. Even with their good eyesight, they couldn't see anything. They could only listen to the noise outside the woods.
"No, there's movement outside. They might be chasing us."
"So soon?"
"So what do we do now?"
"Should we fight or continue to flee?"
The other people in the cave asked Guo Xin in a low voice. Guo Xin was also annoyed by the people behind him and looked in the direction of Lu Jing.
Lu Jing pondered for a moment before saying, "Let two people escort the things and hide, and we'll go and lure the people away."
Guo Xin thought about it and felt that this method was feasible, but this thing was too valuable and he couldn't guarantee whether other people had any ideas about it, so Lu Jing had to carry it with him.
"Master Lu, I'll have two people escort you to hide, and I'll take the rest of the people to lure them away."
Lu Jing frowned: "No..."
That's not what he meant, but before he could explain, he was interrupted by Guo Xin.
"Master Lu, you know the value of this thing yourself. Are you confident in marrying someone else?"
If they didn't know the value of the things inside, they wouldn't be greedy, but now they know, so they won't feel at ease handing it over to anyone.
Lu Jing was silent for a while before nodding, "Thank you very much, Young Master Guo. This is a great favor, isn't it? After this matter is over, Lu Jing will definitely reward you handsomely."
Guo Xin chuckled softly, "No need for a big reward, just something practical will do."
