"Xiao Bai! Wait for me! Why are you running so fast?" Yue'er was startled and hurriedly chased after her.
But how can a person with two legs outrun a person with four legs?
"Hey! If you have Taoist talismans, you can use Taoism! I won't be able to outrun you! Xiaobai, wait for me! Why are you running?" Yue'er complained while chasing after him.
The Snow Mastiff is a smart one. It ran for a while and found that Yue'er couldn't catch up with it. It actually knew how to wait where it was.
"Huh?" Yue'er noticed that the mastiff was running and stopping, as if it was taking her somewhere?
"Where do you want to take me? What did you hear?"
"I will know if I go with you?" Yue'er murmured, "Is there any danger? My parents and brothers have to worry about it. I can't take risks alone!"
The Snowmastiff licked her hand.
Yue'er was so itchy that she rubbed its big head, "Will you protect me? Hehe..."
Yue'er touched her arms and said, "I brought this! Don't worry, I will protect you, Xiaobai!"
Yue'er took out the night-light pearl given to her by the big python from her arms.
This bead was given to Guo Ma Qian Cheng. Of course, it was to catch Li Laojiu at that time.
After Li Laojiu took the bait, Ma Qiancheng felt that this thing was too valuable and she would not feel at ease leaving it with her.
So, she quietly returned it to Wen Jin.
"Li Laojiu will definitely still think that the things are with me... As long as Yue'er doesn't take them out and doesn't let anyone know that the things are back in her hands, it will be fine."
"You are good at it. This thing is safer with you than in my hands!"
Wen Jin understood Ma Qiancheng's good intentions and took back the Night Pearl.
Yue'er said softly, "I will definitely not take it out and let no one know. The beads are back in my hands! This is a gift given to me by the python. I want to take it!"
Wen Jin doted on the child, made an agreement with her for three chapters, and then returned the beads to her.
Yue'er followed the snow mastiff and walked back and forth in the forest.
"Shh... don't make any noise?" Yue'er could understand the Snow Mastiff's meaning, "What did you find?"
"Is there someone? Who is it?"
Yue'er looked around nervously. Before she saw anyone, the snow mastiff bit her clothes and dragged her to the side of the bushes.
"Oh, hide first..." As soon as Yue'er hid, she saw a strong light coming from the other side of the bush.
She quickly covered her eyes with her sleeves, and after her eyes adapted to the strong light, she looked through the gaps between her fingers and branches and leaves to where there was light.
"Eh? Jiang Ye, what is he doing here?" Yue'er muttered in her heart.
But what puzzled her even more was the bright light facing Jiang Ye.
There seemed to be a person standing in the strong light, but where Yue'er was hiding, the figure of the person was blocked, so she couldn't see clearly.
"Who did Jiang Ye meet when he ran deep into this dense forest? Xiaobai, we have to find a place where we can see the person on the other side." Yue'er said in a very low voice.
She was about to change places, but found that the brave and fearless Snow Mastiff looked extremely frightened at this time.
It was such a huge and majestic body, but it was lying tightly on the ground, trembling slightly and not daring to move.
"Xiao Bai? What are you afraid of? I'm here!" Yue'er gently stroked the mastiff's big head and comforted her with the utmost gentleness.
The snow mastiff raised its head and looked at Yue'er's face. It stuck out its tongue and licked Yue'er before it regained some courage.
It stood up lightly, carefully and quietly took Yue'er with her, and moved to a different place to hide and watch.
Yue'er moved not far and then stopped.
It wasn't because Jiang Ye and the people across from him discovered them.
Instead, Yue'er had already seen who was standing opposite Jiang Ye!
Yue'er stared blankly at the man standing in the light. She tilted her head, her face full of confusion, "Dad? I mean...Father? Why is he here? What did he tell Jiang Ye?"
"Huh? That's not right. Our Taoist magic has failed. We can't even use our Taoist talismans. How can my father shine?"
The snow mastiff bit her trouser leg anxiously.
"Huh? You said, he is not my father? How is that possible!" Yue'er muttered in her heart, "How is it possible that I can't even recognize my biological father?"
At this point, Yue'er suddenly had an idea.
She immediately tensed up, "I know..."
"Greetings to the Imperial Preceptor!" Jiang Ye bowed, knelt down to the man in front of him, and kowtowed, "I wonder if the Imperial Preceptor has any instructions for calling the children here?"
"After my divination, I learned that there is a 'mountain demon' beside you..." The man standing in the light, who was exactly the same as Xiao Yuchen, spoke in a low voice.
Yue'er's breathing tightened and her heartbeat rumbled, "I understand! I seem to understand everything!"
"Can't say it! Can't let him say it! Don't let Jiang Ye know!"
At such an urgent moment, Yue'er was so anxious that she was sweating all over. She had no fear at all and was only thinking about how to interrupt the "National Master"!
"There is a way!"
Yue'er suddenly reached into her arms and took out the luminous pearl.
"Big Python, it's all up to you!" Yue'er said, throwing the luminous pearl in her hand towards the man in the bright light.
There was a "whoosh" sound.
Yue'er has been practicing riding and shooting since she was a child, but it's really not in vain. Her hands are not weak.
Like a shot put, Ye Mingzhu hit the Imperial Master in the face.
"Huh?" The national master was startled by the sudden flying ball.
But what shocked him even more was the moment he raised his hand to catch the flying ball, "Bang——"
A giant python, with its mouth wide open, suddenly appeared.
"court death!
Before the word "death" was spoken, the figure of the national master disappeared from the big python's mouth.
"It's not a real Imperial Master, it's a projection." Yue'er was dormant in the distance, watching intently.
Jiang Ye was even more startled. He looked around blankly, "National Preceptor? National Preceptor? Where are you? What do you want to explain to me?"
However, in the silent forest, the only thing that responded to him was the rustle of autumn leaves in the wind.
"What is it?" Jiang Ye looked forward into the dead branches and leaves.
He just seemed to see something flying towards him... The Imperial Master reached out to grab it, and then he disappeared from sight.
Jiang Ye carefully used a branch to push aside the layers of fallen leaves in front of him.
A beautiful bead, as big as an egg, as smooth as a pearl, and emitting a faint light, suddenly appeared in front of you.
"Oh! What a beautiful pearl!" Jiang Ye's eyes straightened, "I claim to have seen countless jewels, but this is the first time I see such a beautiful pearl... Is this a luminous pearl? There is such a big, round and complete pearl in the world. Night Pearl?"
Jiang Ye threw away the branch and held up the beautiful night pearl with both hands.
"Oh, it's over!" Yue'er stuck out her tongue in the distance, "He picked up the orb. This is a gift given to me by the big python. I'm sorry for the big python!"
Who would have expected that the moment Jiang Ye's hand touched the bead...
His scalp became numb and he felt the fishy smell hitting his face.
He raised his neck stiffly and slowly...a giant python suddenly appeared in front of him.
The giant python opened its mouth and seemed to be able to swallow him whole!
The filthy and bloody smell that hit his face made him dizzy.
"Ahhhh..." Jiang Ye screamed, shaking the folding fan and pressing the switch.
"Swish, swish -" The folding fan he often played with in his hand shot out several darts fiercely. The darts were quenched with poison and glowed with a faint blue luster.
"Dang, Dang, Dang -" The dart missed the giant python, but pierced into the surrounding tree trunks.
The giant python opened its mouth and swallowed Jiang Ye into its belly.
