Chapter 949: The monster attacks, and it is difficult to force people

Ye Chen didn't expect that the leader of the Ancient Forging Clan would make such a request. After thinking about it, he thought it was too much and said:

"It sounds like a very dangerous place. If you could find it, you would have looked for it, right?"

The clan leader looked at Ye Chen with a smile and said: "You are right, we did send people to look for it, but there was no news after they went there. But you are different, aren't you? When the monsters attacked, your strength was also Everyone can see it.”

Ye Chen sighed and said, "It doesn't matter if I look for it, I just don't know how long it will take."

The clan leader looked at Ye Chen and said after a while: "We don't force others to do anything."

Ye Chen sneered, now that he is asking for help from others, how can he still say that he is not forcing others to make things difficult for him? I had no choice but to say:

"Then I'll leave tomorrow."

The clan leader nodded, arranged the luggage for Ye Chen and explained the specific location to him. The next morning, Ye Chen went to say goodbye to the clan leader again. The clan leader sent Ye Chen to the gate. Not far away, Ai Xiaohong caught up with him.

Ye Chen stopped and asked, "Are you going to follow me?"

Ai Xiaohong nodded sheepishly, and Ye Chen smiled and said to her, "I don't want to be your nanny anymore. You can go back. I don't know how dangerous this journey is."

Ai Xiaohong didn't speak, but looked at Ye Chen pitifully. Ye Chen said helplessly: "Where are your parents? Your parents at home should also be worried. It's not good to just follow others."

Ai Xiaohong still didn't speak, so Ye Chen had no choice but to say: "Then you give me another ride, and we'll break up when we get to that mountain?"

Ye Chen pointed to the hilltop facing the gate of the Ancient Forge Clan.

Ai Xiaohong nodded happily when she saw this, and the two of them reached the top of the mountain together. Ye Chen said to her, "It's time for you to go home now, right?"

Ai Xiaohong nodded and said, "Then will you come back?"

Ye Chen said: "I will definitely come back. I have to say goodbye after a long journey. You go home. We will see you later."

Ai Xiaohong also followed Ye Chen and said, "See you later."

Ye Chen found it quite interesting, thinking about the child Ai Xiaohong along the way. If he didn't have to go back, he felt that living in the ancient forging village was actually quite good, and he felt that he was already isolated from the world. "He held on to the map given by the clan leader and walked for three days. The journey went smoothly, and he didn't encounter any trouble when he stopped.

On the afternoon of the third day, Ye Chen was walking on a mountain road and happened to walk under a mountain spring. Mountain spring water flows down from the mountain to form a small waterfall. After a tiring day, Ye Chen was looking for a place to rest. When he saw a large rock in front of the waterfall, just big enough for two people to lie down, he stopped there, put down his luggage and prepared to take a bath. Suddenly, he heard more than a dozen birds on a tree on the way were startled and flew into the sky with a "puff-puff".

Generally, if a bird is frightened, something must be passing under the tree. But what puzzled Ye Chen was that he didn't hear the sound of tigers, leopards, insects, or snakes walking. Ye Chen walked over and saw that there were indeed no animals under the tree. But birds don't get frightened for no reason.

Ye Chen ignored the matter for the time being and slept on the big rock that night. Early the next morning, he was on the road again in a hurry. Walking on the mountain path, he deliberately walked towards the grassy area. Every time he stopped quickly, Ye Chen could always hear the sound of walking in the grass behind him. But when he chased back, he couldn't find what was walking behind him.

He was being followed.

After many attempts, Ye Chen finally confirmed the matter. But what bothered Ye Chen was that the tail behind him was very good at hiding. Every time he quickly chased after him, he couldn't find anything.

On the fifth day, Ye Chen set a trap for the fox at a corner. He covered the trap with leaves, and then walked forward slowly as usual. After walking for a while, he heard a "click" behind him and knew that the trap had been triggered. He immediately ran over excitedly and said: "This Let’s see how you hide.”

But what he didn't expect was that the object caught in the trap was just a piece of wood. It seemed that the person behind him had already known about his trap. Ye Chen felt crazy after being followed for several days and unable to find out who it was. He immediately searched around the mountain, but the person he was following seemed to be invisible. Ye Chen could only hear his voice but not see him.

In anger, Ye Chen cut many trees on the roadside into two pieces. That night I slept on the grass. The next day, when it was just dawn, Ye Chen said behind him: "Hey, I have to leave."

After saying that, he ran away. He ran really fast and disappeared in an instant.

The figure behind him didn't expect Ye Chen to come back. When she came to her senses, she didn't know where Ye Chen was. She had no choice but to walk out and stop at the place where Ye Chen spent the night. But suddenly, Ye Chen's voice appeared behind her.

"Look where else are you going to hide?"

But when the figure turned around, Ye Chen was surprised and said, "Ah, is it you?" It turned out to be Ai Xiaohong.

Ai Xiaohong also said in surprise: "Didn't you run away? Why did you suddenly come behind me again?"

Ye Chen said with a proud smile: "That was just a trick. I cut down the tree to block your view, so that you could only see my shadow running forward, but you didn't see me coming back from a distance."

Ai Xiaohong said: "It's really amazing."

"Hmph," Ye Chen said, "You are also awesome. I have been looking for you for several days, but you are so good at hiding."

Ai Xiaohong smiled and said: "Of course, we, the ancient forging people, live in the mountains and make a living by catching monsters. Avoiding monsters is a skill that children like us have to learn since childhood."

Ye Chen was still depressed. Thinking that he couldn't find anyone in the past few days, he was angry and said:

"You pissed me off."

Ai Xiaohong just laughed there. Ye Chen said, "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to go back?"

Ai Xiaohong suddenly became silent, interlocked her fingers, moved her thumbs, and said, "I followed you again."

"Why did you follow me?"

"That's right," Ai Xiaohong said, "Didn't you tell me a lot about the outside world? I really want to see what the outside world is like."

"Well, your parents will definitely scold me."

"If I don't go out now, I may never have the chance to go out in the future."

"Don't you have the opportunity to go out after you are fourteen or fifteen years old?"

"No, only boys and those who perform well have the opportunity to go out. Otherwise, you can only stay in the village."

"Oh, now you have been out for a few days, you are satisfied, right? It's time to go back, right?"

"I want to go with you, anyway you have to go back to the village."

Ye Chen said helplessly, "I don't want to be your nanny, you have to take care of yourself."

"No problem, I have taken care of myself these days."

Seeing that things had come to this, Ye Chen had to take Ai Xiaohong with him on the road.
