Green-colored wind element arrows flew from the dark forest, followed closely by Mitsuyo's figure with four wings spread out, drawing a bow and charging up power. The monster immersed itself in receiving the arrow, biting the child at an incredible speed. The back collar turned around and fled.

Dao Qi deflected the blade for fear of accidentally injuring the child, and the putrid wind flashed away from directly below Nanke's position.

Another arrow was shot in the direction the monster left, followed by Mitsuyo and Doki flying towards them.

“My wife, I’ll leave the tree on that tree to you!”

As soon as Mitsuyo finished speaking, both the one who was being chased and the one who was chasing them all disappeared into the dark night deep in the forest.

The roar was still echoing. Nanke calmed down, looked down at the height below his feet and the crying child on the other side of the swamp, and let out a breath.

She can.

Climbing down uncoordinated with his hands and feet, summoning the elemental power to isolate himself from the permeating evil spirit, Nanke ran towards the child.

"Are you afraid of heights? It's okay, be brave, sister will catch you," Nanke opened his arms, "Be good, jump down."

The little guy was only three or four years old. He was hugging the branch tightly and crying non-stop. He should be the Jiro the little girl mentioned.

"Jiro?" Nanke called him.

Jiro stopped crying and looked at Nanke with sobs.

After a while, he jumped down cautiously and was held firmly by Nanke.

The arm was struck by the heavy force of falling from a high place and made a crunching sound as the bones were dislocated. Nanke instantly broke into a cold sweat and endured the pain as he lowered Jiro to the ground.

"Be good, hold your sister's hand, and she will take you to a safe place."

Jiro said "Yes" with tears in his eyes, and grabbed her fingers that could no longer move with both hands.

In fact, where is there a safe place in the wild forest at night?

Nanke could only lead him in the opposite direction where the monster escaped.

Pray with your heart.

Don't encounter snakes.

Don't encounter wild boar.

Venomous spiders, birds of prey, any poisonous insects and wild beasts, please do not come here.

What is insignificant to monsters is fatal to them.

But Nanke has never been favored by good luck.

After walking for a while based on intuition, a few wild wolves with green eyes emerged from the rustling grass ahead.

Nanke protected Jiro and retreated.

"Sister, there's one from behind too!" Jiro pressed close to her in panic.

Nanke turned around and saw a few pairs of hungry blue eyes.

He can't move his hands, and he's not skilled in manipulating elemental power. If he's not careful, he may accidentally injure a child.

With Guimu's lesson in mind, Nanke took a breath and would rather fight hand to hand.

"Jiro, can you climb trees?" She retreated to a tree, watching the wolves as they slowly crouched down, "Climb onto my sister's shoulders and go to the tree."

"I won't..." Jiro cried and shook his head.

"You can learn it if you don't know it, you can do it now, hurry up."

Jiro trembled and grabbed Nanke's shoulders. Maybe he was too tired from walking all the way, or maybe he was frightened. His short legs were fluttering and he couldn't crawl.

Seeing the wolves gradually surrounding him, Nanke remembered that he still had the conch Chunxiang gave him in his pocket. He opened his lips, but before he could make a sound, countless pairs of black wings flew towards him from all directions.

"The bad guys retreat! The bad guys retreat!"

The surrounding wolves were half frightened and half driven away by the sudden appearance of the disruptor, and retreated into the darkness of the forest with low growls.

"Yahaha! Hahaha!"

The tengu landed on the ground, flapping their wings and letting out a chuckle.

Nanke was stunned. His eyes scanned the countless faces around him that were exactly the same as Mitsuyo's. When he lowered his eyes, he saw the tail of a civet cat wagging happily.

The demon raccoons turned to face her. Seeing that she was silent, some turned into skirmishers and some turned into her. They all shouted: "Danger! Nan Yaoyao! My house! Stay the night!"

"Thank you." Nanke's tense body relaxed and he almost couldn't stand and fell down the tree.

With the escort of the demon raccoon, the rest of the journey was relatively safe.

Jiro also changed from being uneasy at the beginning to being curious, and carefully rubbed their ears.

The demon raccoons also seemed to sense that the forest was not peaceful tonight. Instead of following Nanke into the secret mansion like that night, they left some of them turned into stones and weeds and squatted outside.

His arm was so painful that he couldn't feel anything. A raccoon cat came up to him and begged to be touched. Nanke smiled bitterly and rubbed the top of its hair. Just as he was about to tell Jiro not to touch the things in the civet cat's cave, his peripheral vision looked at the stacked rockery in the secret palace. A large group of huddled black shadows was caught between them.

Nanke's pupils shrank sharply.

It's the monster being hunted by Mitsuyo and the others!

The monster had seen them a long time ago. The face covered with black energy stared straight at Jiro, breathing heavily with its mouth wide open, but did not move.

Nanke noticed that there were black blood stains on the ground, and several demon raccoons were trying to wipe them away with leaves.

The demon raccoons even brought the seriously injured monster here.

Nanke took a step across to block Jiro who was not in a situation, and also blocked the monster's sight.

"Sister?" Jiro was confused.

The monster didn't move for the moment.

Nanke turned around, suppressed the instinctive fear of exposing his back to the monster, tried to keep his voice calm, looked at him and said: "Jiro, there is a conch in my right sleeve pocket, I want to give it to you."

"Conch?" Jiro, who had already been calmed down by his friendly demon raccoon friends, grinned in surprise when he heard this.

"It's a conch that can call the forest guardian, Tengu-sama, just by blowing it," Nanke smiled, "But I give it to you, and you have to agree to a condition for your sister. My sister is too tired and wants to sleep for a while. You are a brave little girl. Knight, you have to go out and help your sister guard it, so that no bad guys can come in and disturb you."

"What's so difficult about this!" Jiro, not doubting that he was there, took out the conch from her pocket, held it up happily and ran out.

The demon raccoons looked at Jiro and then at Nanke in confusion.

Their simple little minds couldn't understand the tense atmosphere. They paused for a while, jumped around, turned the ground into a mattress, and pulled Nanke to sleep.

Nanke avoided them and approached the monster hiding in the rockery.

Capturing a child lost in the forest.

Provide food and fire.

Facing the protective resistance of Mitsuyo and Doki.

A series of strange behaviors have gone beyond the instincts of monsters and creatures, and even reveal a hint of intelligence.

Most importantly, it speaks human language.

In this case, is it possible to have a conversation?

A low, threatening growl erupted from the monster's throat.

"You were invited in by the demon raccoons, so I believe that at least you have never done anything to make them afraid." The closer you get, the stronger the rotten smell becomes, and the ominous aura is almost as good as that of the haunted god. , Nanke stopped after a few steps, looked up at it and asked, "You don't want to hurt Jiro, right?"

As if he couldn't bear her direct gaze, the strange human face sank into the black air, without saying a word.

"Can I touch you?" Nanke then asked.

The monster curled up tighter and remained silent.

Nanke then approached cautiously.

Unable to move her hands, she pressed her cheek against it.

The skin hidden under the black air was rough and cold. At the moment of contact, a chill penetrated his body, and Nanke trembled as if he was electrocuted.

The monster also shook.

Nanke exhaled gently, endured the discomfort, and put it on again.

The monster's huge hand moved.

It seemed as if something was weighing heavily on it, and it dug into the stone ground tightly, clawing out five distinct blood stains.

"Eat...don't...eat..."

The black energy sometimes spreads and sometimes shrinks with the incoherent murmur, revealing the huge body covered with scars underneath.

"It doesn't matter if you eat it, I'm not afraid," Nanke rubbed his head soothingly, "Calm down,"
