I didn't intend to be a Fairy

Chapter 548 Treasure in the Mountains (Monthly Ticket +4)

"I know this monster."

Zhang Yushi glanced behind him coldly, and said to the military attachés and Taoists beside him: "This kind of monster is thick-skinned and thick-skinned. It cannot be beaten or killed. It is difficult to deal with, but in fact it does not have much ability. It likes to roam at night. It attacks people when they are asleep at night, and if they are not sleeping, just wait for them to fall asleep nearby. Even though it is harmless to humans and animals now, sometimes when people take a nap, it will come in front of you."

The two military attachés heard this and asked, "Do you want us to drive it away?"

"I'm afraid you can't deal with it now." Zhang Yushi shook his head and said, "Night is when its power is strongest, so don't worry, as long as you don't sleep. I will naturally have a way to deal with it."

After hearing this, the two attendants relaxed a little, but they did not let down their guard, and their hands did not take away their swords and bows. They still tensed up and stared at the fire in silence.

The calico cat next to the Taoist turned and glanced at Song You, then at the people around the fire, and finally at the monster outside the fire. Just as she was about to stand up, the Taoist's hand pressed down on hers again. He gently stroked her back and pushed her back to her original position, then stroked her back without saying a word.

"Meow?"

The cat couldn't help but be a little confused, and turned to look at him, its swollen face was very funny.

The Taoist just smiled and said nothing.

He really wanted to see how the censor got rid of the demon.

Zhang Yushi didn't speak anymore.

Several people didn't sleep.

The monster looked up at them from time to time, and seemed to be gradually becoming a little anxious. He straightened up from the ground several times and looked at them. It seemed that his patience had reached the limit, but when he saw the two military attache attendants and Zhang Yushi, they were full of blood and righteousness, and With the weapon on his waist, he lay down again.

The night gradually deepened.

Several people still didn't sleep.

On the contrary, the cat sat there and began to take a nap, its swollen head lowered deeply, and little by little, it became unsteady from time to time, almost falling, and then sat upright again, while the monster lying on the periphery of the fire He was already feeling sleepy, and his eyes began to squint continuously.

I guess the monster's patience is about to run out.

At this moment, Zhang Yushi picked up a pine cone in the fire with a wooden branch and pushed it in the direction of the monster.

"brush……"

The pine cones immediately flew out.

The monster was taking a nap with his eyes squinted. He didn't seem to be a smart and alert monster. Suddenly, the pine cone fell straight into its arms and was caught in its pocket.

It was really a thick-skinned monster. The red-hot pine cone fell into its arms. For a moment, it didn't notice it at all. It just noticed some movement and felt a little strange. It opened its eyes and took another look at the person sitting by the fire. The people nearby scratched their heads when they saw that several people were still awake, and then closed their eyes again.

The pine cone burned slowly in its arms, gradually emitting smoke.

Everyone and the calico cat turned to look at the monster.

Zhang Yushi had an unexpected expression, the two military attache attendants opened their eyes wide, and Song You also smiled, seeming to find it interesting.

After a while, a dull roar appeared in the mountains.

"Ouch!"

The monster jumped up suddenly, flapped its chest wildly, and dropped countless sparks like rain.

At this time, its chest was filled with green smoke, exuding a strange woody fragrance.

Zhang Yushi then spoke: "We won't sleep anymore. With your ability, you can't do anything to us. It's better to leave quickly. Don't ask for trouble!"

The monster jumped away and left.

Zhang Yushi looked at it coldly until its figure disappeared, then finally looked away, snorted coldly, and continued to add firewood to the fire.

The smile on Song You's face became a little brighter.

You can see the origin of the other person at a glance, know the other person's character and intentions, slowly wear down its patience, and choose the best time to drive it away with a pine cone and a word.

He is worthy of being a general in embroidered clothes.

It was probably around five o'clock at this time.

The fog in the mountains is very heavy.

Zhang Yushi and the two military attachés still didn't dare to sleep, but Song You had already leaned back and leaned on his luggage. He narrowed his eyes slightly and only said: "The Yushi is really charming. Since the monster has already After being driven away, I think there won’t be any more monsters coming, so I’ll take a nap first, as I have to be on the road tomorrow.”

"Sir, please go to sleep. I will watch the night."

Although everyone said this, they couldn't help but look at him.

There were not many people who could sleep in this place. They thought that the Taoist meant that they wanted to sleep, that is, they wanted to take a short nap, or that they wanted to sleep but couldn't. However, after a while, they heard the Taoist's even breathing. The sound and the rise and fall of his chest also indicated that he had fallen asleep.

I really just sleep when I say sleep.

On the contrary, the cat next to him kept his eyes open, sometimes looking at Zhang Yushi, sometimes at the two military attachés and attendants, sometimes at the deep night all around - he was obviously drowsy just now, but when the Taoist lay down to sleep, After that, she became energetic and seemed to stand guard for the Taoist.

It slowly began to light up in the east.

When the sky was dim and bright, a swallow fluttered its wings and landed on the horse's back. It turned to look at the cat for a moment. The cat then fell asleep, and the swallow stood on the horse's back, combing its feathers from time to time. He turned around and looked around with his small black eyes.

It's like job rotation.

Zhang Yushi saw this strangely and called two military attachés to catch up on his sleep at dawn.

When it was daybreak, the Taoist woke up, and so did they.

I saw Zhang Yushi drawing his sword, holding a torch, and walking into the mountain forest with two military attachés and attendants, as if searching for something.

Finally, under the leadership of Mao'er, they found an ancient tree about a mile away from where they camped last night. There were several holes in the ancient tree, which looked like human facial features. There was a place underneath that looked like a quilt. The scorched black marks from the fire are still very new, and there is a faint smell of strange woody fragrance.

At this time, the swelling on the cat's face had subsided, revealing its true appearance, and they were amazed that this cat was so beautiful.

Immediately, Zhang Yushi did not hesitate and ordered his two men to collect the pine cones and light them on the spot. When they burned red, they stuffed them all into the big mouth-like hole in the ancient tree.

Suddenly the ancient branches swayed, and there was an ear-splitting howl.

"snort……"

Zhang Yushi still snorted coldly, watching the tree being burned by the fire. After a long time, he turned around and said salute to Song Xing: "It makes you laugh..."

It seems that he has realized that with the ability of the man in front of him, these monsters should not be worth mentioning.

"Where is it?" Song You also returned the greeting, "The censor can easily kill evil spirits with the power of a mortal, with almost no effort. It is only for me to gain knowledge."

"Sir, do you still want to move forward?"

"nature."

So I went back to pack my things, and then followed the old road into the mountains again, taking the same path that 40,000 expeditionary troops once walked.

The further you go into the mountains, the cooler the temperature becomes.

The horse also walked slower and slower.

When we walked deep into the mountains, it was clearly midsummer and the height was still far below the mountain's snow line, but snow began to fall strangely in the sky, and the ground changed from being covered with white frost to being covered with thick snow.

"It's right in front."

Zhang Yushi said to Song You.

Song You didn't answer and walked forward with his stick.

After climbing over a small hillside, a world of ice and snow suddenly appeared in front of us.

There was snow falling in the summer and dark clouds overhead, making the sky extremely turbid. What should have been a lake ahead turned into a small glacier, with thick ice on the ground and icicles growing there. There is also a long marching team beside the glacier. Some are riding horses, some are walking, and some are driving carriages, or escorting food and grass, or carrying rare treasures, but they are all turned into ice sculptures, frozen. In the last moment of his life, he was so lifelike that even his expression was preserved.

Forty thousand troops were buried here.

Some looked confused, completely unaware of what had happened, and their lives had been frozen. Others had noticed something and looked horrified. Forty thousand corpses formed an ice sculpture purgatory in this mountain.

No wonder the envoy sent from the palace was scared to death.

"gentlemen……"

Zhang Yushi turned to look at the Taoist.

But I saw that the Taoist was not afraid at all, he just walked forward with his bamboo stick.

After walking into this ice sculpture purgatory, I discovered that it was not only the soldiers who were frozen here, but also some people from the Western Regions. It can be seen from their frozen movements that most of them came later. They must have heard that this army plundered the entire country's treasures and was frozen here by monsters. They became greedy and wanted to search, but As soon as his hands touched those treasure chests, they turned into ice sculptures and stayed here, integrating with the army and the treasures they carried.

Song You raised his bamboo stick and pointed at a treasure box.

"gentlemen!"

Zhang Yushi behind him immediately shouted.

"It doesn't matter."

Song You stopped and said something to him, then continued to stretch out his bamboo stick, unlocked a treasure box, and then opened another treasure box.

Zhang Yushi's heart was already in his throat.

But nothing happened.

Song You just opened several treasure boxes in succession and checked the treasures inside——

Sure enough, there are many gold, silver, pearls and jade.

But there is only gold, silver, pearls and jade.

As for the rare treasures mentioned by Zhang Yushi, Song You has never seen them. There are some small boxes packed in big boxes. It seems that the contents inside are treated higher than gold, silver, pearls and jade, but these small boxes are It was already empty, as if someone had taken it away.

"The demon must have taken it away!" Zhang Yushi said in a deep voice, "This demon is quite picky!"

"Maybe."

Song You's expression was very calm and he continued to walk forward, turning his head as he walked and looking into the eyes of these faces from more than a hundred years ago.

The calico cat kept jumping on the cart, looking at the gold, silver, pearls and jade in these boxes, and could hardly move his eyes away. Due to the presence of outsiders, he had to turn his head and meow at the Taoist, but the Taoist didn't listen.

"Although this army is quite brutal, even if it is a capital crime of beheading, it should be dealt with by our Dayan court after returning to the court. How can we allow monsters to massacre wantonly?" Zhang Yushi shook his head behind him and said, "If the army massacres the city, The punishment for atrocities is just to kill, but people can't die without a bow. So many soldiers died here, but this monster refused to give them rest. Instead, it froze them here and exposed their corpses for hundreds of years. How many It’s a little too much.”

Zhang Yushi's tone was more helpless and sighing: "I don't think about how to take revenge on this monster. I only think about when these soldiers can rest in peace..."

Song You pursed his lips.

That's today.
