In the Ming and Qing Pavilions.

"Ah puff!"

Xiao Dongzi, who was studying ink on the side, advised: "Aunt Xue, it's cold at night, please put on some clothes."

"When has this Pavilion Master ever been afraid of being too cold..." Xue Chanyi frowned slightly, then stood up and said, "...No, someone must be scolding this Pavilion Master behind his back."

There was just a 'crash' sound, and the piles of documents on the desk overturned and fell to the floor.

The little girl in green clothes on the other side looked at the documents scattered on the floor and immediately complained, "Auntie, please focus on your work."

"Haha..." Xue Chanyi smiled helplessly with two dark circles under her eyes, "Chunzi, this Pavilion Master has been 'fighting' continuously for more than several months. Can you take a day off?"

"No." Chunzi looked at the documents all over the place with a serious face and categorically refused.

"Half a day?" Xue Chanyi begged.

Chunzi shook his head, squatted down and began to pack up the documents on the ground with Dongzi.

"Two hours?" Xue Chanyi refused to give up and continued to beg.

"..." Chunzi ignored it.

"A quarter of an hour? Just a quarter of an hour..."

"..." Chunzi ignored her.

Seeing that there was no hope, Xue Chanyi leaned her face on the table with a bang, looking like she was hopeless.

What good will it do you if the master of this pavilion dies?

After a moment, he asked lifelessly: "How is the girl doing now?"

Chunzi carefully stacked the documents he picked up neatly, and replied seriously: "According to the news I just received this morning, this person is now setting up a competition in Gongzhou, and his record is still a win!"

"Yeah!" After hearing this, Xue Chanyi raised her head, with a cunning look on her face, and said with a smile, "Oh, you're quite capable!"

The days of traveling made Dongfang Rouyin, Yu Xiaoshuai and the three little kids exhausted. Especially the three children, because the route Lingling chose was not easy to travel by car and horse. Firstly, the flying magic weapon in her hand could not accommodate so many people; secondly, she wanted to buy it but could not buy it; thirdly, she was worried about the detectives who were chasing her. The trace of the trip was quickly traced.

The three unenlightened children are just mortals. They eat, drink, and defecate every day, and they have to stop and rest every few dozen miles. The walking speed is as slow as a turtle.

Thinking of that night, when she was about to leave, several people seemed to have agreed upon it and chose the method of "hanging" on her as if she were dead, preventing her from leaving privately.

Successfully 'blackmailed' her in this rogue way.

Looking at the group of boys, girls, and children sitting huddled beside the fire, each beating their legs and rubbing their waists like bears, Lingling couldn't help but want to cry.

Is this a survival tour with an "senior group" in the primeval forest?

We can't leave this group of "seniors" alone in such an inhospitable place. She secretly decided that she would get rid of a few people and sneak away to the next town no matter what.

Gollum!Gollum!

The stomachs of the four children made a series of long growling sounds. Four pairs of eyes looked at her together, like fledglings waiting to be fed.

At first, Yu Xiaoshuai was able to help a little bit and get some food for the three children, but the deeper they went into the forest, the greater the danger. Lingling did not dare to let them go alone, so he lit some phoenix powder on a few of them. Finally, let Yu Xiaoshuai do some small things like collecting some firewood nearby.

And Dongfang Rouyin, a rich person, is like a mortal cub in a place like this. Not only is she useless, she is always helping others, just like a useless person.

Lingling disappeared out of sight, and in the span of a cup of tea, a wild deer carcass with half of its body missing appeared in front of everyone. Several people didn't pay attention to where the other half of the wild deer's body was. They just salivated and started cutting the meat into barbecue mode.

Although the days on the road are hard, they eat meat every day and eat the so-called nutritionally balanced elixir. Yu Xiaoshuai and the other children seem to fall in love with this unrestrained life in the wild mountains and forests.

Several people burped and lay down on the ground rubbing their bellies with satisfaction.

"Master, take me with you next time you hunt." Yu Xiaoshuai looked at Lingling sitting in the tree and said.

After following Lingling for these days, Yu Xiaoshuai admired Lingling's style of doing things and his calm handling of various dangerous situations.

I always wonder when I can become as powerful as him!

Although Lingling never promised to accept him as a disciple. However, he had already determined in his heart that she was his master.

Lingling: "How many times have I told you, I am not your master."

Yu Xiaoshuai chuckled "haha". As long as he calls him master, Lingling will definitely answer like this. But it was still better to respond to him than to ignore him.

Sincerity leads to gold and stone!

"Teach me, I want to become as powerful as you."

"This is a survival skill. What's so great about it?" Lingling said, but then she thought about it. After teaching him how to hunt, he would no longer rely on blackmailing people to support the three children, so he agreed. "Okay, I'll take you with me next time."

Hearing this, Yu Xiaoshuai danced and rolled happily on the ground.

Dongfang Rouyin looked unconvinced and pouted, "I want to go too."

Although she doesn't need to eat, she doesn't want this waste.

"I want to go too. I want to go too." The three children also shouted.

Lingling was instantly dizzy from the noise, and said sternly: "Don't make trouble, it will be dangerous if you attract the beast later. Go to bed quickly, we have to be on our way at dawn."

Yu Xiaoshuai put his finger to his mouth and signaled Niuniu, Nuonuo and Yazai to whisper and make them obey.

The three people immediately became quiet, pouting and lying next to Yu Xiaoshuai. For the first time, they hoped that they would grow up quickly.

It was late at night, and the five of them fell asleep soundly. The fire crackled like a little piece of music, which made people feel at ease.

Lingling meditated on the tree and ran the "beginningless technique" over and over again.

Chirp! Chirp!

Several slightly excited sounds came closer and closer. Lingling raised the corner of his lips, swept down the treetops, and got into the forest.

"Lingjiu, why are you so happy?"

One has a strong body, a bird-like shape, a dragon-like head, gray-black scales all over the body, thick and short forelimbs, a sharp and thick claw in the middle of the claws, strong and slender hind limbs, and a straight and powerful tail like a crocodile lizard behind it. swing. There is a storage ring on the wrist of its forelimbs, and it holds a faint blue egg about two feet high in its paws.

Lingjiu grew up very quickly. In just one month, he grew from one foot tall to almost three feet tall, like a seven or eight-year-old human child. This age is completely in the cognitive stage, with strong curiosity, energy, and liveliness.

The reason why Lingling chose the forest was to let Ling Jiu "run wild" here. The daily hunting was also done by Ling Jiu alone after being instructed by Lingling.

One of its sharp and thick claws tapped the egg a few times. The small black pearl-like eyes on the wide mandible looked at Lingling with great energy.

Lingjiu said to her excitedly, "Look what treasure I picked up?"

She took the egg and observed it carefully for a moment, her cheek muscles couldn't help but twitch, and she hurriedly asked: "Lingjiu, where did you pick it up?"

Ling Jiu's head tilted slightly, his small black pearl-like eyes blinked a few times and looked at Ling Ling in confusion, and his finger claws on one side of his body pointed at a mountain range in the distance.

Lingling dropped the egg and whispered: "Throw it away, it's not a treasure, it's a trouble."
