C188

In the past when she had been assigned a mission, she had either been led by her master or her senior sister. Thus, she had become accustomed to relying on them.

Li Yue pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to make it out of the mountains tonight. I'll first think of a way to leave the miasma forest!"

Jingjing worriedly asked, "Didn't you say that we have to go down the mountain before daybreak?"

In particular, she remembered that after Great Hero Yan's repeated warnings, he had already thought of the look of terror on his face when the sun had risen and he was still in the mountains.

"The miasma is not comparable to the marsh, nor to those hallucinatory plants. This is a true poisonous gas, once you take a look at it and ingest it, you will be in danger of losing your life."

Li Yue's words made Jingjing even more worried.

Those psychedelic plants only made people lose their mind. At most, they would do something out of line.

Those plants were like aphrodisiacs, they could make a person's nerves excited.

The miasma here, however, was a deadly poison.

"Do you know how to hold your breath?"

After Li Yue asked her question, he felt that her question was unnecessary even before Jingjing could reply.

Without further ado, he took out a snow-white silk handkerchief from his sleeve, poured some water into the bamboo tube to moisten it, and handed it to Jingjing: "It will always feel better to rush up, hurry up."

"What about you?"

"Take care of yourself!"

Jing Jing didn't mention this again, "Which direction should we go now?"

Li Yue seemed to be slightly impressed by Jing Jing's calmness. He said, "Look at the sky, can you tell the direction?"

Jingjing tied a wet silk scarf around her face, and looked up to see the bright moonlight. Her eyes lit up again, "I can distinguish directions by identifying stars!"

Li Yue did not doubt his words and said, "Alright, the road down the mountain is slightly west of the north. Show me!"

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "I don't like identifying constellations the most, but it seems necessary now."

Jingjing smiled and looked towards the sky, not answering his words.

She pointed her snow-white finger at the moon and muttered, "…" "That's Sirius, that's Vega, and that's Constellation Two …"

A string of words that Li Yue could not understand came out. After a while, Jingjing's eyes lit up and her hands froze in a certain direction, "It's here!"

After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Yes, this place is right!"

Li Yue actually still trusted her very much. "Go straight ahead!"

Jing Jing nodded, smiled, and said: "But …. If we rush there now, will we catch up with the enemy? "

Li Yue replied seriously, "Probably not. They probably didn't expect us to come to the miasma forest. Even if they had, they wouldn't dare to enter so easily."

Jingjing nodded and rolled her eyes. The scar on the right side of her face no longer looked that ugly, "Didn't I just think of a way to lure you in?"

"En!"

"I have a new way to let them know our direction."

"Oh?"

Jingjing stopped her steps and took the Western Region King's reward from her head. She was prepared to take the Night Pearl that she had grinded when she returned home. She smiled and said, "With this, there will be someone to lead the way for us!"

"Who?" Li Yue curiously asked.

Jingjing mysteriously smiled and asked him, "This Luminous Pearl is really good, you can throw it a mile away?"

Li Yue seemed to understand something, and his green eyes were filled with excitement. "I can travel about half a kilometer, but there's something wrong with that distance!"

Jing Jing smiled and handed it over to him, "Throw it away!"

She took it and was about to throw it far away.

"Explain!" Li Yue said.

But Jingjing smiled, "Didn't you already know? Why should I say it? "

Li Yue did not ask any further and walked forward with a smile. "This way, not only will we not get lost, we will also attract our people!"

Jing Jing also smiled, "This method is really good!"

However, neither of them noticed that a pair of eyes was following them closely from behind …

"How did you come up with that?" she asked.

"My brain!" Jingjing replied.

"How do you know how to use the stars to identify directions?" she asked.

"I saw it in the book." In fact, in the twenty-first century, Master had trained him.

"It's my turn to ask you!" Jingjing said.

"Go ahead!" "No," she said.

"Is your martial arts very strong?" Jingjing asked.

"Not bad." Li Yue replied.

"Why do you know Qing Gong when your legs are inconvenient? He could actually throw the bead so far. How did he cultivate it? Was it related to that wordless heavenly book? Is that a martial arts manual? "

"No!" Li Yue simply replied.

From this, Jingjing came to a conclusion.

When you ask Li Yue, you can't ask his two or more questions in a row.

He had to ask them one by one.

This way, he would be able to ensure that every question received his answer.

"Is Beitang Bingying your senior sister?" she asked again.

"Yes!"

"Where's Nangong Xiu?"

"Count me in as half brother-in-law!"

"But I've never heard of Beitang Bingying having a junior sister. Her Beitang Clan cannot accept a disciple with another surname!" She thought of the source of the problem.

"Ugh …" This is a long story! "

Jing Jing changed the topic, "That's right, I heard that my brother-in-law, Nangong Xiu, is a handsome man with unparalleled charm?"

"Normal. Furthermore, your character is not that great! " Li Yue's tone was clearly unfriendly.

When he thought of how Nangong Xiu had gone to the Western Regions to steal his Wordless Book, he wished that he could grind his bones into ashes and destroy his bones!

Jing Jing didn't understand why he suddenly became unfriendly, so she shut her mouth and asked another topic, "If that Night Pearl breaks, can you compensate me?"

"..." "Sure!" Li Yue said dejectedly, "But you have so many pieces of jewelry, why would you want a single Night Pearl?!"

"Eat!" Jingjing added, "It can be used for beauty!" While they were talking, they overlooked one thing, which was that the two lonely hearts had unconsciously started to get close to each other.

The owner of the pair of eyes behind him constantly frowned. He wanted to step forward a few times, but was unable to do so.

The two of them continued to travel a little more than half a kilometer to the west from the north. Not far away, they could only see a few Night Pearls.

It was not that the Night Pearls could not emit such a dazzling light in the miasma forest.

Rather, that Luminous Pearl was currently being covered by a large flock of crows.

Those crows covered the Night Pearl and were boiling.

Moreover, in the sky above the Night Pearl, countless crows were flying over.

Jing Jing turned around, and only found a little bit of surprise on Li Yue's face. She whispered with a smile, "You guessed right."

Li Yue could only smile. "But, I don't really understand it yet!"

Jing Jing laughed softly, "The miasma in the forest is cyan and white, the crows in the forest must have never seen such a bright object before, plus the crows like something that shines …"

Jing Jing turned to look at Li Yue, then said, "So, if you leave these Night Pearls here, these crows will naturally come pouncing on you."

"Wait a moment, drive these crows away, and after half a kilometer, the crows will follow us again!"

"The people around you naturally recognize the glow of the Night Pearls within the palace. Seeing those crows strangely change directions by half a mile and then another half mile, if they were familiar with your martial arts, then they would naturally know that we are here!"

Li Yue did not conceal the praise in his eyes as he said, "Good idea!"

Jingjing said, "Although your idea is good, you still have to think of a way to chase away these crows without angering them!"

Although the crows didn't have much offensive power, if such a large group of crows were to attack them at the same time, it would definitely not be a fun thing.

Li Yue nodded and her hand flew for a while. A few small steel balls appeared in her hand.

Jingjing curiously looked at him, only to see him raise his hand towards that flock of crows, and flick his middle finger a few times.

With a few swooshing sounds, the crow on the other side bounced up.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed as if a few people had been injured and were dashing towards him at an extremely fast speed.

The rest of them left in confusion as they saw the few that were flying away.

They hid in a safe place, and in a few moments the crows were flying. Taking advantage of this gap, Jingjing quickly ran over and covered the exposed Night Pearl with her long sleeve, then quickly picked it up.

He then returned and handed the Night Pearl to Li Yue, saying, "Throw it another half a kilometer!"

After receiving it, Ru Yue threw it forward another half mile in a straight line.

As for those crows, they followed without a doubt.

The two of them continued forward.

After repeating this a few times, he estimated that he had traveled about two-thirds of the way back.

As for the crows, some of them had already lost interest and flew away.

As for those who persevered in following the Night Pearl, most of them were a bit angry.

"..." Throw it again, and before long we'll know the way down! "

Jingjing looked at the flock of crows covered by night pearls and softly said to Li Yue.

Li Yue nodded and tossed a few steel balls over, saying, "Pick them up!"

After thinking for a moment, he said to Jingjing, "Be careful."

It was probably because there were so many of them, that after the crows were bounced off by the steel balls, half of them flew away.

The other half, the smarter ones, were circling above the Night Pearls.

A dense flock of crows flew in the sky, nearly covering half of the moonlight.

Jingjing was afraid that if something unexpected happened, these crows would be angered.

She had underestimated the number of crows in the forest.

Jingjing nodded and walked over.

Using the same method as before, he quickly used his sleeves to cover the light coming from the Night Pearls.

Just as he was about to grab the Night Pearl and return, those crows that had already been cheated many times suddenly lost their light.

It was like a group of headless flies desperately flopping about.

"This is bad …"

Li Yue whispered, "Come back quickly —"

Of course, Jing also knew that the situation wasn't looking good, so she prepared to come back as soon as possible.

And then, the sound of 'ka ka' could be heard.

Just as he ran two steps, he felt as though he was being followed by a group of crows on his back.

A few crows, who had already flown fast enough, attacked her with all their might.

Even though the attack power of these crows was low, being followed by such a group was still a very dangerous task.

Fortunately, Jingjing ran rather fast. Although her face was scratched, and her arms couldn't be spared, there wasn't much danger after all.

The most dangerous ones were the ones who had caught up.

The moment she reached Li Yue's side, she suddenly grabbed her.

With a tap of the crutch, the two flew far away.

In just a short while, the two of them had thrown those crows far away.

Jing Jing let out a sigh of relief, looking at the raven that was already far away, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
