Chapter 4046 There is a Monster
Comrade Zhang Qing'an is becoming more and more familiar with the operational strategies of our Sixth Regiment.
The first principle of the operation is that the thieves cannot leave empty-handed. Since they have already gone there, they certainly cannot return empty-handed; they must bring something back.
At that moment, I took out the Dragon Tiger Mirror and shone it on the open ground in front of me. Immediately, the ground was covered with pearls and agates, which made everyone gasp in amazement.
"We're rich! We're rich! I knew you two kids would bring back some good stuff." Zhang Qing'an rubbed his hands together excitedly.
"So, you guys came to the Fire Domain to buy goods?" Master Zhiqing shook his head as he looked at the treasures scattered all over the ground.
Li Chao also found it unbelievable: "You not only captured the Di people's king alive, but also robbed their treasure vault?"
“Brother Chao, isn’t this just a convenient thing to do? Since we’ve already offended them, we might as well offend them even more. After we leave the Fire Domain, you’ll get a share of what we sell.” The slovenly Taoist priest grinned at Li Chao.
"There's no need for that. Ill-gotten gains are not to be taken," Li Chao said seriously.
Li Chao is not only bad-tempered, but also stubborn. Although he is not very popular, he has a very upright moral compass. We have brought so many treasures to our space, which can definitely be sold for a lot of money, but he is not tempted at all.
It wasn't that Li Chao didn't need the money; it was just that he felt he shouldn't take it.
After showing everyone the good stuff that the slovenly Taoist priest and I had gotten, I quickly used the Dragon-Tiger Mirror to put all the treasures away.
With just this one ticket, our trip to the Fire Domain was definitely worthwhile; we've definitely broken even.
You tell me, those Di people, of all people to mess with, they had to provoke us. Didn't they just lose both their wife and their army?
The slovenly Taoist priest traded a glow ball costing 9.9 yuan (including shipping) for our great fortune.
In any case, we finally made it safely through the territory of the Di people.
There are five countries in the Fire Domain. We have already passed through Nie Er Kingdom and Di Ren Kingdom. Next is Chang Gu Kingdom. I heard from the Wu Kan chieftain that the people of Chang Gu Kingdom have very long legs and very big feet, and they also seem to have a bad temper.
Our Sixth Regiment's mission is to help Li Chao find the "Spirit of Prosperity," and we should try to avoid causing trouble if possible.
We should avoid these people from the long-term stock market and try our best to avoid conflict with them.
According to the chief of Wukan, these people of the Long-legged Kingdom are active during the day and rest at night.
We can travel at night and rest during the day, thus avoiding conflicts with the people of these long-standing countries.
Actually, we have another way, which is to collectively activate invisibility talismans to travel during the day. However, these invisibility talismans are too expensive, costing one million per half hour. The area of Changgu Kingdom is definitely not small. By the time we get out of this place, we will have to spend several small goals, which is really not worth it.
Ultimately, we decided to travel at night and find a secluded place to rest during the day.
By this time, we had reached the shore and discussed the matter. It was already completely dark.
So the group set off immediately, heading quickly towards Zhaoyao Mountain.
Upon arriving in the territory of Changgu Kingdom, I discovered that the environment here was completely different from that of Nie Er Kingdom. First of all, the plants here grew exceptionally tall. Even a blade of grass by the roadside was taller than us, and several people couldn't wrap their arms around any tree. Their height was so great that it seemed to reach into the clouds.
Stepping into this environment felt like entering a land of giants.
Although the plants here are tall, they have returned to their normal colors. The leaves are green, and the flowers are a variety of colors. Even a wildflower you see by the roadside is as big as an umbrella.
This is good; with these tall plants as cover, it's easier for us to travel.
Taking advantage of the darkness, we traveled quickly, occasionally encountering wild animals moving about in the woods.
I saw a creature that looked like a rabbit, but it had four ears. It wasn't hairy, but it had something like fish scales on its body. The key thing was that it was huge. It looked like a wild rabbit, but it was actually the size of a small calf. It was quite a shock when I saw it suddenly.
To prevent us from being ambushed by wild beasts, Kassan released the Blood God Gu to clear a path for us, while I released the Enchantress to guard the surrounding area, so that we could be alerted in advance if there was any disturbance.
After walking for several hours, we arrived at a village inhabited by people from the Long-legged Kingdom. Wow, their houses were huge! They were all made of wood and took up a lot of space. Kasang vanished into the void and went to check out the village ahead. He came back and told us that there was no danger and that the people from the Long-legged Kingdom were asleep.
Even so, we dared not enter their village. If we were discovered, we would be trampled into mincemeat by these people from the Long-legged Kingdom.
So we took a detour and continued on our way.
After walking all night, everyone was exhausted. Meiling walked around the area and said there was a secluded cave not far away where we could rest.
Everyone was exhausted, so they found the huge cave, walked all the way to the depths of the cave, and found an open space to set up camp.
For safety's sake, Kassan circled the cave again and discovered that there were other exits.
In this way, even if people from the Longgu Kingdom appear in this area, we can evacuate safely.
After tidying up a bit, we asked Meiling and Xueshen Gu to watch over us, and then we all lay down and fell asleep.
I closed my eyes and slept soundly for ages, not knowing how long I slept. Suddenly, I felt a chill between my brows. I opened my eyes and saw Meiling crouching beside me, saying anxiously, "Wake up! A monster is coming..."
Upon hearing what the spirit said, I immediately sat up and looked around in fear, but I didn't find any monsters.
The creatures in the Longgu Kingdom are all enormous; any monster that appears would be beyond our ability to handle.
After I got up, I woke up the others and found that it was still bright outside the cave, so we probably hadn't slept for more than a few hours.
The others were all still sleepy and asked me what had happened. I told them that a monster had come.
Everyone got up and was about to walk out of the cave when suddenly a very strong, fishy stench quickly spread from behind them.
I turned around and was immediately startled to see a pair of giant amber eyes appearing a hundred meters away.
The next moment, the monster suddenly accelerated and charged towards us.
At that moment, I finally saw the monster's appearance clearly; it was an enormous black snake.
