Why is my master always lost and swollen? !

"Chibao, go see off Mr. Baohe and the others, don't turn around and be invited to drink tea by someone on the way, it will delay the business." Before leaving, the proprietress ordered.

"What do you mean?" Fang Xue stood beside Liu Zian and asked in a low voice.Obviously she could understand every word and every sentence, but she couldn't figure out the meaning of it all together.

"This is the jargon of travelers." Liu Zian explained, "'Please drink tea' means that you met bandits and robbers on the way and were detained in the den of thieves... However, the proprietress probably refers to the monster cave. The meaning of asking Chibao to send us off is to let him protect us out of this boundary, so that we will not be intercepted on the way."

"Okay, let's improve a bit." Mr. Baohe smiled after hearing Liu Zian's explanation.

"Anyway, I've gone out so many times, and it's not just once or twice that I was stopped by others. How can I not understand anything." Liu Zian felt that he was treated as a fool by Mr. Baohe.

"Have you ever encountered such a situation before?!" Fang Xue was a little surprised. In her opinion, those bandits and robbers were mostly outlaws who would kill without batting an eyelid.

"It's inevitable that you will encounter this kind of thing when you go out." After a pause, Mr. Baohe said again, "But the road we are taking is less traveled, so it should be safe."

"Before that...how did you escape?" Fang Xue was a little curious about this.

"It's a long story, I'll tell you slowly on the way back..."

"Sir, go get busy. I'll tell Sister Axue about this." Liu Zian forced a smile.

Mr. Baohe remembered that he still had things to do, so he reluctantly agreed, but before leaving, he repeatedly told Liu Zian not to add fuel and exaggerate his words.

"What's going on?" Fang Xue became more curious about their previous experiences.

"Several times, I'll pick some good speakers for you to talk about."

Fang Xue's eyes were shining, and she nodded repeatedly.

"A few years ago, I accidentally got separated from my husband and fell into the hands of bandits. The bandits were afraid that I would run away, so they trapped me in a pit with smooth walls and an upward opening. That pit is really... oh, the latrine smells better than it.”

"and after?"

"Later, the master came to save me. He rushed into the bandits' den by himself and defeated a whole den of bandits. Later, some sporadic and fatal ones came back. Missing arms and broken legs, or only half breathed..."

"Are they black and white?"

"Where is it, it was all called by my husband!"

"Sir, are you that good at fighting?"

"Is this true? I was also shocked at the beginning..."

Just as he was about to say more, Liu Zian heard Mr. Baohe calling him, so he made an appointment with Fang Xue to talk about the story of "Mr. Baohe's battle with the bandits" in detail at another day.

"Seeing that you guys are having a good chat, what did you say?" Mr. Baohe asked with a smile.

"It's nothing, just chatting about the interesting things we encountered on the trip." Liu Zian replied with a guilty conscience, secretly hating himself for being too complacent just now, for not paying attention to controlling the volume, and wondering if Mr. Baohe heard it.

"Okay, let's talk about interesting things later." Mr. Baohe inspected the car again and nodded, "Tell Ah Xue that it's time for us to get on the road."

Liu Zian took orders and went.

"Axue, sir said it's time for us to go." Liu Zian walked in front of Fang Xue, but found that Fang Xue looked gloomy, as if he had something on his mind, "Are you unhappy?"

Fang Xue shook her head, looked around, sighed, and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel a little reluctant."

"Reluctant?" Liu Zian didn't know why Fang Xue felt this way. If he was the other party, he should be eager to get on the road right away.

Fang Xue was silent, and she didn't know what happened to her.Perhaps it was an emotion similar to the timidity of being close to the countryside. The closer she was to the desert, the more frightened she felt in her heart, and she even began to retreat.

Maybe after so many years, he already has his own life...

Recently, she has always had such thoughts.However, she never dared to tell others. After all, she was the one who clamored to come here at the beginning. Now that she has come here, if she wants to go back, everyone will feel embarrassed.

"Axue, what are you thinking?" Seeing Axue's distraught look, Liu Zian asked.

"It's okay." Fang Xue lowered her head, showing no emotion, "When does uncle say you're leaving?"

"Now." Liu Zian replied, "If you are ready, go there."

Liu Zian felt that Fang Xue was hiding something from him, and was about to ask, but on second thought, the girl was already delicate and prone to overthinking, not to mention Fang Xue's situation, if he asked, it would make her cry On the contrary, it was not good, so I gave up.

"Are you going to leave?" Chi Bao asked, tugging at the hem of Mr. Baohe's coat.

"Yes." Mr. Baohe smiled, "Little Red Leopard must be ready."

"Okay!" Chi Leopard nodded vigorously, ran to the middle of the yard, took a deep breath, transformed himself into the form of a giant beast.

"This... is the red leopard?" Fang Xue was startled by the sudden appearance of the giant beast, and asked cautiously.

"Meow!" The red leopard lowered its furry head and rubbed against Fang Xue, making a "snurling" sound from its throat.

"It's really a red leopard!" Fang Xue rubbed the head of the red leopard, and said with a smile, "This appearance is really bluffing."

"Meow!" Chi Bao raised his head and called out quite self-confidently.

"Well, if it wasn't for such a little milk voice, it would have been even more bluffing." Liu Zian rubbed his chin and said.

"Okay, let's go when everything is ready." Mr. Baohe smiled, "It will be dark in a while, let's work hard and try to get out of the enchantment before dawn tomorrow."

According to the proprietress, the place where they are now is not the real Wushan, but the mythical Wushan.The former is for humans to live in, while the latter is for monsters to survive.During the day, although the two are located in the same geographical location, they are independent of each other and do not interfere with each other; once night falls, they will merge with each other, gradually become one, and then separate, and regain their independence again in the early morning of the next day.

What Mr. Baohe and the others have to do is to take advantage of the dark night to rush out of the barrier and return to their original world.

"If there is a gentleman, there should be no difference between day and night." Liu Zian commented on this.

Fang Xue thought about it, she and Mr. Baohe seemed to be here during the day.

"Let's take precautions, after all, no one can tell about things like getting lost..." Mr. Baohe still felt that it would be better to go out in the normal way, "and with the red leopard following, the road should be easier."

In this way, after the sky darkened, Mr. Baohe and his party started on the road.

In the autumn night, the cold wind was howling, and the branches without leaves kept shaking, like the trembling hands of a terminally ill person stretching out to the sky.Occasionally, there were a few wailing cuckoos, which made people feel frightened.

Liu Zian looked at the surrounding environment, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Mr. Baohe asked strangely as he drove the carriage.

"I feel that if others see this scene now, they will probably think we are some kind of monsters." Liu Zian replied with a smile.

"How do you say that?" Fang Xue was a little scared in her heart, hiding in the carriage and refusing to come out.But hearing Liu Zian's words aroused curiosity instead, and quietly lifted the curtain to glance out the window.

"Think about it, the cuckoo is weeping blood, the night owl is crying, and the red leopard is also leading the way. It's like a "picture of monsters walking at night"." Liu Zian said seriously.

Mr. Baohe thought about this scene for a while, and found it really interesting, so he couldn't help laughing out loud.

For a while, laughter and laughter actually diluted the terrifying atmosphere a lot.

"Meow!" Suddenly, the red leopard stopped and yelled.

"Why did you stop?" Liu Zian asked.

"Probably reached the border." Mr. Baohe guessed.

Sure enough, Chi Leopard turned into his original form before he could finish speaking, and walked towards the carriage with tears in his eyes.

"Goodbye..." he sobbed, wiping his tears with his sleeve.

"Hey, don't cry." Mr. Baohe patted Chibao's head and comforted him, "We will meet again if we are destined."

Chibao cried even more when he heard this, and threw himself into Mr. Baohe's arms, rubbing his tears and nose all over him.Mr. Baohe didn't dislike him either, he still patted him on the back and comforted him softly.

"Sir, it's almost dawn." Liu Zian reminded seeing a white light appearing in the sky.

"It's almost dawn... goodbye..." Chi Leopard said softly, looked at Mr. Baohe and his party with tears in his eyes, and then slowly retreated into the forest, changed into a leopard shape, and disappeared.

"Let's go." Mr. Baohe looked at the direction where the red leopard was leaving, and said after a while, "If we don't wait for the day to dawn, we'll be wasting our time tonight."

Liu Zian and Fang Xue nodded when they heard the words, got into the car, and the three of them continued to walk down the mountain.

The surroundings gradually turned from darkness to light, so they extinguished the candles of the lanterns to save the consumption of candles.

When we got to the main road, it was already bright, and the road was full of traffic, so it was very lively.

"That's enough." Liu Zian smiled, "It felt like I was in a dream for a few days, so unreal..."

"Then you're awake from the dream now?" Mr. Baohe asked with a smile, with a sly look in his eyes.

"Yes." Liu Zian nodded ignorantly.

"Since I woke up from the dream, come and help me get out of the car. I'll squint for a while." As he spoke, Mr. Baohe yawned.

"Sir..." Liu Zian wanted to refuse, but seeing Mr. Baohe's tired face, he couldn't help but feel distressed, so he changed his words, "You should rest first, I'll drive the car."

"Thank you." Mr. Baohe stopped the car and changed places with Liu Zian, "Be careful not to drive the car into a ditch."

"Understood..." Liu Zian's hands froze, and he muttered softly, "It's all about rotten rice, sir, why do you still remember it?"

However, Mr. Baohe ignored him.Liu Zian looked sideways and found that the other party had fallen asleep with his eyes closed.

"It seems that Mister is really too tired." Liu Zian sighed, thinking.

Liu Zian rubbed his face, trying to make himself feel better, and started to drive the car according to the method Mr. Baohe taught him earlier.

"I hope you will have a smooth journey in the future." Liu Zian secretly prayed in his heart.
