When Xu Qingyun heard this, he looked at Zhuge Qimeng with some surprise: "You want to follow us."
"Yes." Zhuge Qimeng nodded.
"Why?" Xu Qingyun asked.
"There are two reasons. First, because we are going to the south of Tianyin Mountain Range along the way. Second, with the strength you showed just now, I think it will be safer to go forward with you." Zhuge Qimeng said softly.
.
Xu Qingyun thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, I agree to you following me."
She could probably guess what this woman was thinking, and I'm afraid it wasn't just the two reasons she mentioned.
"Thank you." Zhuge Qimeng smiled softly.
The group of people continued to move forward, saying that they were traveling together, but Zhuge Qimeng and others still followed behind, with a distance of two or three meters, and did not get too close to Xu Qingyun and others.
The group's speed was not fast, but not slow either. They kept passing through the white mist. They rarely communicated with each other along the way. The whole mountain was eerily silent, with the occasional chirping of birds and insects.
Compared with the noisy metropolis, this mountain forest is a rare and quiet place.
Several people climbed over a mountain and were getting closer and closer to the destination Fan Kun said.
At this time, Zhao Qianfu, who was originally staying in Zhuge Qimeng's team, ran over, came to Xu Qingyun, and got close to Xu Qingyun.
"Brother, what's your name? I saw the tiger you slapped away just now, it was so handsome!" Zhao Qianfu said with a smile.
Xu Qingyun glanced at this guy lightly and did not answer.
Zhao Qianfu continued: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Zhao Qianfu. I am the son of the richest man in the mountain city. My family is very rich."
"Brother, let me tell you straight. I actually want to invite you to my house as a guest. You are so skilled. My dad must really like a talent like you. You can also stay with me and be my guard."
"You don't have to worry about the salary. I guarantee you'll be satisfied. How about giving you an annual salary of tens of millions? If it's not enough, you can increase it."
Su Ling'er on the side looked at Zhao Qianfu as if he were a fool. If you want Master to be your guard, I'm afraid you're not dreaming!
"It's not impossible to let me be your guard." Xu Qingyun said with a smile, "But you have to give me this number!"
Xu Qingyun stretched out a finger.
"How much? One hundred million?" Zhao Qianfu felt that Xu Qingyun was a little bit open-minded. Ten million was already very good, but he didn't expect that he would ask for one hundred million.
Xu Qingyun shook his head: "Not one hundred million, but one hundred billion."
"If you can give me 100 billion, I will promise to be your bodyguard." Xu Qingyun said with a smile.
Upon hearing this number, the mouth corners of the bodyguards who followed Zhao Qianfu and were responsible for protecting him twitched a few times.
Their annual salary is less than one hundred thousandth of this figure.
"Brother, don't be kidding. 100 billion is too much. It's impossible." The smile on Zhao Qianfu's face froze. What a joke. Let's not talk about whether his family can come up with 100 billion, even if they can.
It is impossible to spend 100 billion to hire a guard.
"If you don't have 100 billion, then I'm sorry, I can't be your guard." Xu Qingyun said with a smile.
Zhao Qianfu still refused to give up: "Brother, stop joking. I will give you 20 million. Think about it. 20 million is already a lot."
Xu Qingyun ignored Zhao Qianfu. He just said 100 billion to tease this guy. Even if the other party could really come up with 100 billion, Xu Qingyun would not agree to be his bodyguard.
Zhao Qianfu was still chattering non-stop.
Suddenly danger strikes.
The white mist in front seemed to be suddenly torn apart by something, and a sharp sound broke through the air.
"ah!"
A scream sounded.
A bodyguard beside Zhao Qianfu was dragged into the white mist by something.
Xu Qingyun had quick eyes and quick hands and hurriedly grabbed the bodyguard.
The bodyguard was held by Xu Qingyun, and he was not dragged into the white mist.
But one of his arms was broken, and the wound was dripping with blood.
Xu Qingyun took out the silver needle and gave the other party two injections to help stop the bleeding.
This sudden change shocked everyone.
"Protect the young master!"
"Miss, be careful!"
Several other bodyguards of Zhao Qianfu and Cao Yuanhua shouted loudly, while they were alert to the movements around them.
Zhao Qianfu was so frightened that his face turned pale. He was less than half a meter away from the bodyguard just now. If he was not the bodyguard who was dragged just now, the consequences would be disastrous.
Zhuge Qimeng's face was solemn.
What is in the white mist in front of me, and the terrifying speed just now, I can't see clearly.
Xu Qingyun had already stopped the bodyguard's bleeding and he would not die from excessive blood loss for the time being.
"Thank you!" The bodyguard thanked Xu Qingyun.
Xu Qingyun ignored it, staring closely at the white mist in front of him.
White mist rolled in, and the surrounding fog became thicker. Five meters away, it was almost blank and nothing could be seen.
It was obviously almost noon at this moment, but instead of dissipating, the fog in the mountains became even thicker.
Fan Kun suddenly said loudly: "Mr. Xu, I remembered! It's right in front!"
"Last time we encountered Yin Sha in front. At that time, I found the entrance in front and was about to take action. The Yin Sha came out, but the white fog was not so thick that day."
"After we sensed danger, we ran away without looking back."
"Ling'er, what's the date today?" Xu Qingyun looked at Su Ling'er and asked.
"Today is the first day of the new year." Su Ling'er said without thinking.
"We came at the wrong time!" Xu Qingyun said with a solemn expression.
The first day of the Lunar New Year is often the day with the heaviest Yin Qi in a month, and it is also the time when evil spirits such as Yin evil spirits are most powerful.
By coincidence, Xu Qingyun and the others happened to go into the mountains on this day and come here, encountering the evil spirit at its strongest.
Before going out, you should read the almanac.
But it's too late to say this now.
Su Ling'er seemed to understand why Master suddenly asked what day it was, and frowned slightly: "Master, what should we do now? Should we leave first and come back another day? Or?"
"No, I want to see how powerful this thing is!" Xu Qingyun smiled confidently.
"Do you know what that is?"
At this time, Zhuge Qimeng came over. She heard what the few people said just now, but she still didn't understand some of them.
"Yin evil!" Xu Qingyun spat out two words lightly.
"Yin Sha!?" Zhuge Qimeng frowned slightly when she heard this. She naturally knew what Yin Sha was.
"Why is there evil spirit here? Is there a big tomb here?!" Zhuge Qimeng was slightly surprised.
Xu Qingyun glanced at her and then said: "Yes, there should be an ancient tomb here. The evil spirit came from the ancient tomb, and there should be a spiritual vein connected to the ancient tomb."
"Generally, when building mausoleums in ancient times, people would pay attention to Feng Shui dragon caves and choose a Feng Shui treasure place to build the mausoleum."
"They just happened to find the spiritual veins. The spiritual veins are connected with the tombs, and it is easy to give birth to powerful Yin evil spirits. The Yin evil spirits can rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the spiritual veins to cultivate and become more and more powerful."
"And the seven-color flower you are looking for is an elixir of heaven and earth. The growth conditions are extremely harsh. It cannot grow and survive in ordinary mountain forests."
"If there are really seven-color flowers in this mountain range, it is most likely to grow near the spiritual veins and grow by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the spiritual veins."
