Beauty and the Bodyguard

After the excitement, everyone, led by Chu Bubai, couldn't help but speed up the pace. The coveted infant ginseng was close at hand. Everyone could obviously no longer hold back. It seemed that even the fatigue accumulated from the past few days of traveling was gone. Swept away and rendered insignificant.

However, Lin Yi was a little confused at this time. To be honest, he had been suspicious of Chu Bubai from the beginning. He always felt that this man had an ulterior conspiracy, and all the strange things along the way really proved this. .

But the medicinal fragrance of this baby ginseng is impossible to deceive. Others have never seen baby ginseng, and they can be said to have been deceived by Chu Bubai, but Lin Yi has personally made elixirs with baby ginseng.

As an alchemist, it is impossible to forget the smell of this super rare material once you smell it once. This cannot be faked, nor can it be deceived by Lin Yi.

But if this smell is really that of infant ginseng, what is Chu Bubai’s conspiracy?

He has tried every possible means to bring so many people here, and now he is really close to finding Yingshen. After going in such a big circle, what is his ulterior motive?

So far, although there have been various strange things about Chu Bubai, he has not caused any substantial harm to everyone. On the contrary, as he said, he has really brought everyone to their destination, far away from the legendary Ying Ginseng is only a short distance away.

Moreover, the joining of everyone has not been of any help to him so far. Lin Yi and others have not been of any use at all, they just followed him on his way.

Could it be that Chu Bubai brought people like him here just to find Ying Shen quickly and had no other bad intentions? Could it be that I am really overthinking, and this person is not as scheming as I thought?

However, how should we explain all the strange things that happened along the way?

Lin Yi looked at Chu Bubai's back in front of him and couldn't help but feel confused. His intuition told him that there must be something wrong with this person, but it was really hard to say where the problem was.

Holding Huang Xiaotao's hand, Lin Yi continued to follow the people in front of him calmly. He was not afraid that Chu Bubai would fall out in the end. What he was afraid of was that Chu Bubai had other plans, which he might not be able to guard against. If he accidentally hit his Dao, that would be troublesome.

Of course, no matter what, Lin Yi's expectations for Ying Shen are no less than anyone else present. Otherwise, he would not have known Chu Bubai's hidden evil intentions and brought Huang Xiaotao along to take the risk, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger all the way. , the only thing pictured is infant ginseng.

Therefore, Lin Yi was very excited when he could actually smell the medicinal fragrance of Yingshen at this moment. Otherwise, if it was purely a trap set by Chu Bubai, and there was no Yingshen at all, then he would pretend to be a pig and eat it this time. Tiger is meaningless.

Encouraged by the scent of baby ginseng, everyone had already forgotten all the tension and fear in their hearts. Even if they saw any ghost talismans again, they didn't take it to heart at all.

Even Feng Hongyu, who had been greatly stimulated and left a shadow in her heart, followed Chu Bubai all the way and showed no signs of timidity.

However, everyone soon discovered that something was not right. Things like ghost charms and demons that penetrated people began to appear less frequently, but the atmosphere of the surrounding environment became even colder and colder. .

Just under everyone's noses, the originally clear paths among the bushes began to become blurry. In fact, people could even see ghosts flickering from the corners of their eyes from time to time.

Although you can't see clearly, the sight of the shadows beating is real. They are all determined masters of the Golden Core stage. You can be sure that this is definitely not an illusion. There must be something in it, and it is probably a legend. That kind of unclean thing!

At this moment, the previously thin mist had unknowingly become much thicker. Just now, you could still clearly see the blood moon hanging upside down in the sky, but now, when you look up, the sky is completely blurry.

Even the figures of each other, who were only a few feet apart, became blurred in the mist, and even had a vague feeling. In addition, ghosts were seen flickering in the corners of the eyes from time to time. My heart was so excited that I couldn't help but shudder at this moment, feeling weak in my heart.

Huang Xiaotao was so frightened that she subconsciously clung to Lin Yi, not daring to look at the surrounding scene. In front of her, Guo Dengtao, Wang Feng, and Feng Hongyu were also on tiptoe, like frightened birds, not daring to stride forward as before. .

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he saw this scene. Although he was not scared, there were ghosts flashing around him from time to time. He felt that they were not far away from him, but he couldn't see clearly what they were. In this situation It's impossible not to feel scared at all.

Fortunately, Lin Yi was sure that the surrounding fog was not the poisonous miasma above his head. It could only affect everyone's perception, but would not poison people to death. This was a blessing among misfortunes.

Otherwise, even if you know that there is an infant ginseng in this place, you must exit quickly. No matter how good the infant ginseng is, you must have a life to take it. The miasmatic fog covers this place and it is a dead land. If you continue to stay, it will only become fertilizer for the infant ginseng.

"Ah! There is no road ahead!" Suddenly Feng Hongyu exclaimed from the front. She was walking in the front with Chu Bubai, and the rest of the people were following behind them. No matter what was going on in front, only she and Chu Bubai were the most clear.

"What?" Guo Dengtao and Wang Feng were shocked and hurried forward to check the situation. Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other and followed them.

The six people stood in a circle, looking at the path that had completely disappeared under their feet. They couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what to do.

Although the fog had become heavier before, and the feet became blurry, there was still more or less the outline of a trail, but now even the most basic outline is gone. There are only dense grass and bushes in front of it. It seems that this trail has ended here. It's already the end.

"Brother Chu, are we going the wrong way?" Guo Dengtao couldn't help but ask. The trail suddenly came to an end. A normal person's first reaction would be to get lost.

After all, it is very foggy here, visibility is very limited, and it is normal to get lost.

"No, I've been comparing the map and compass. The direction is definitely correct. Don't panic. My route map was passed down from my ancestors. No one has walked it for I don't know how many years. It's normal for the trails to disappear. thing." Chu Bubai said still calmly.
