Chapter 194 Demon Lord Qingqiu
"By the way, what's your real name?"
"Your real name?" Bao Shuoyu looked a little confused. He seemed to be trying hard to remember something. Perhaps it was because no one had called him that name for so long that even he himself had forgotten it.
"Qing-qiu-" Yes, a long time ago, someone called him Lord Qingqiu.
"Qingqiu? Hmm, that sounds nice. But I'll call you Brother Qingqiu from now on."
Otherwise, it would be quite awkward to look at Bao Shuoyu while calling out another person's name.
After Yu Xiaoluo washed up, she lay down in the soft quilt. A little while later, Bao Shuoyu also crawled in and hugged her to sleep. However, the demons were not happy about this and wanted to sleep with their master as well.
But after being kicked away by Bao Shuoyu, they could only sleep in another bed, feeling wronged.
So, in the standard room, there were two beds, one for the demon and one for a human.
They each had their own dreams and slept very comfortably.
——————
When Yu Xiaoluo woke up, she opened her eyes and saw Bao Shuoyu staring intently at her.
His eyes were full of doting and tenderness, strangely, like the affection between an old married couple.
Clearly, things hadn't gotten to that point between them.
"Aren't you going to get up now that you're awake?"
Bao Shuoyu pouted and gestured to his arm. Yu Xiaolu looked over in confusion, only then realizing that her head had been resting on Bao Shuoyu's arm the whole time.
"It's numb."
"Numb?" Yu Xiaoluo was confused for two seconds before she came to her senses. It turned out that Bao Shuyu's arm had gone numb and she couldn't move it.
Yu Xiaolu blushed, quickly helped him up, and rubbed his arm. "How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?"
However, unexpectedly, three voices rang out from beside the bed at the same time, "Mainly, my skin is numb too, I need to have it rubbed too."
The two little demons stretched out their claws at the same time, and Yu Xiaoluo laughed, "Alright, alright, come on, come on."
Xiao Hei said aggrievedly, "I don't want to stay in the space today, it's too boring. I want to come out and wander around with you guys."
Since they weren't on the plane anymore, if Xie Tianyou asked, they could just say it was a newly adopted stray cat. So Yu Xiaoluo nodded, "Okay."
"I want to get out too!"
"I want to get out too!"
Yu Xiaoluo glanced at Xuanwu and Xiaoxianxian, "You two can forget about it. You might stay in my bag and occasionally peek out, but you're not allowed to come out."
All three demons were overjoyed.
No one called her today, so the snake demon probably hasn't arrived yet. She can only wait.
It was already noon. After washing up, the two people and three demons went out for a stroll and took care of breakfast and lunch at the same time. They found a small restaurant that looked quite unique and inquired about local snacks and specialties.
After eating, they strolled around leisurely, buying a lot of local produce to store in their space. Of course, food was the most plentiful, since both the master and the demon pets were foodies.
Afterwards, we rented a car and drove around the surrounding area, which seemed to be the most pleasant trip we'd had in a long time.
Yu Xiaoluo also took the opportunity to ask the driver about the situation in Kunshan, "Sir, is Kunshan far from here? How is it there now?"
When the driver heard that they were going to Kunshan, his expression turned slightly stern. "Young lady, what are you going there for? It takes about three hours to drive there from here, it's not close."
"We just love adventure."
"That mountain is covered in snow all year round, and it's very cold. Although it's only a few hours away, the temperature difference is huge. If you don't bring enough equipment, climbing there is no joke."
“We all have them, we all have them, plenty of them.”
The driver breathed a sigh of relief. "However, I still don't recommend you go there. I took several passengers there, who were supposed to come back in my car, but I haven't heard from them at all."
"That's because you called someone else's car. Your car isn't always on time."
"No, no, a few years ago, there were quite a lot of people going there for tourism and adventure, but in recent years there have been fewer and fewer people going because of a few major incidents."
"What serious incident could have happened?" Yu Xiaoluo asked curiously. "Could you tell us in detail, Master? If you explain it well, we'll rent your car when we go there."
Renting a car there isn't cheap, since it takes several hours. As soon as the driver heard there was a big business opportunity, he perked up.
"Okay, the first major issue is that two men and two women went to climb Kunshan together, but only one man came back. That man went mad, muttering that they were all dead. The relatives hired a rescue team, and they searched for three days and three nights before they found the bodies of the two men and one woman."
"The three people died in a very gruesome way, all of them were shriveled up. Their families could only recognize their children by their facial features. When asked, the survivor was mentally deranged and could not explain clearly. He only said that there were monsters, monsters, and that monsters sucked their blood and ate their flesh."
"The second story is about a middle-aged couple who came here to climb, but after they went up, they never came down. They only had one son, and the boy was very worried. He asked people to help search, but they searched for a week and couldn't find them. There wasn't even a body. It was as if they had disappeared from this world."
"The third thing is that there was a mountaineering team of twelve people who came to challenge this snow mountain. Some people advised them not to go up because it was too dangerous, but they said that this kind of challenge was exactly what they needed, the more dangerous, the more exciting. Then, not long after they went up, they encountered an avalanche. Some people found several bodies at the foot of the mountain, but no one found the other bodies. No matter how much money they were offered, no one would go up to help search for them."
At this point, the driver sighed deeply. "Young lady, these things aren't just rumors. The last thing, I saw it with my own eyes when I took the passenger there. I saw all the bodies being carried away, and a group of family members were crying. You two are so young, you shouldn't take that risk. Life is only once, we don't need to be so stubborn."
The driver kindly reminded them not to go, "Actually, the residents at the foot of Kunshan have a legend that Kunshan originally belonged to the Kunshan Goddess, who did not allow anyone to climb it. As long as people go up, they will eat, drink, and relieve themselves, and the goddess will not like this defilement and will be angry. The deaths of those people are the result of the Kunshan Goddess's anger."
Having said all that, the driver had finished speaking. Yu Xiaolu had been listening quietly the whole time without interrupting.
After a few minutes of silence, she asked a question, "I've heard there are treasures on Kunshan Mountain, is that true?"
"Oh, who told you that? There are many versions of this story, but what I know is that there are indeed treasures up there, but they are the treasures that guard the mountain, and the Goddess of Kunshan will never allow anyone to take them away."
