Chapter 26 Encounter with the Escort Agency Chen Huaian and Lao Niu have been walking eastward for almost half a month. During this period, nothing happened, but Lao Niu was greedy and asked for beef almost every two days. Chen Huaian felt helpless about this. "You said you are also a cow, why do you like to eat your second uncle so much?" "Moo~" (fragrant) "Don't you think your meat will taste better?" "Moo." (That will hurt.) Chen Huaian opened his mouth wide when he heard this, "Old Cow, do you really want to eat your own meat?" "Moo!" (This is slander! It's pure slander!) Chen Huaian couldn't help laughing when he heard the old cow's cry. "I won't tease you anymore. If there is a chance, I will definitely let you eat meat. No, I will set a table full of Second Uncle's food for you." "Moo!"
Chen Huaian sat on the old cow's back and stopped talking. He took out his flute and played "Wu Gui". [Name: Chen Huaian, Age: 21] [Lifespan: 70, Bones: Ordinary] [Kung Fu: LV2 Phantom Sword Technique (86%)] [Skill: No Return] [Level: LV3 (88/100)] 【Current effects: increase life span, dredge meridians, Drive away the tide, warm the body, and improve your understanding. 】 [Disease: epileptic laughter disorder, which can be gradually treated by Bie Wugui. Current treatment progress: 15%] Chen Huaian played the flute and looked at the panel. The route to Penglai did not appear on the panel. Although he was a little confused, he did not care too much. He guessed that it might be because he had not officially embarked on the journey yet. "Since my last near-death experience, epileptic fits seem to be more treatable." Not only that, Chen Huaian's proficiency in the Phantom Flow Sword Technique also skyrocketed due to the last battle. Chen Huaian really wanted to do it again, but he was afraid of being regarded as a murderer. You know, he was a good man who abided by the law. However, compared to his healing ability and proficiency, what annoyed him more was that he couldn't get out of the forest. "Old cow, use your nose and smell it to see if there is any human scent here." "Moo?" "Of course I'm serious." Lao Niu shook his body violently, trying to shake Chen Huaian off. Seeing this, Chen Huaian quickly admitted his mistake, "Wrong, wrong, Lao Niu, you are a cow, not a dog."
After hearing this, the old cow snorted heavily... "But then again, we've been going around in circles for almost half a month, and it's really annoying. Can't you really use your nose?" Lao Niu: "..." Chen Huaian is a blind man and cannot tell the way. The old cow is a cow and may not know the way either. Chen Huaian keeps in mind the situation at the moment and makes a decision in his mind. "Find an opportunity to let Lao Niu learn how to read maps and recognize roads..." …… Chen Huaian wandered around for another half a month. According to what the old cow said, it had always been moving in one direction, so there was no reason for it to wander around in a forest for so long. "Did I see a ghost?" "Moo." "It shouldn't be that serious." "Old Cow, if we really encounter a ghost, you go up and sell your body, and I'll run away." "Moo!" "Listen, listen, are you talking like a human being?" "Where did the cow mooing come from? I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Seeing that I can hear the cow mooing in a place like this, it seems that God is blessing us!" The sudden sound put Chen Huaian and Lao Niu on alert. Chen Huaian and Lao Niu stared at the direction where the sound came from. If it was a vicious person, they would not mind killing him with lightning speed. However, when they heard rustling sounds, Chen Huaian and Lao Niu realized that there seemed to be more than one person. "Oh, it's not easy to find a cow in a place like this. I want to have a whole cow feast!" The man was talking to his companions, and when he turned around and saw Chen Huaian and Lao Niu, his eyes widened instantly, and he suddenly didn't know what to say. "Xiao San, what can you do right here? Hurry up and leave." The voice behind him urged him, and he moved his body stiffly. When the others saw Chen Huaian and Lao Niu, even if they were not shocked, they frowned. Although Chen Huaian couldn't see clearly, judging from the sound of footsteps, there were at least ten people on the other side. "Brother, why are you alone in this forest?" When Chen Huaian was about to speak, the man said again: "We are from Wuyuan Escort Agency. I am the main person in charge of delivering the goods this time. My name is Li Shi." "My name is Chen Huaian, and I got lost in this forest." Chen Huaian said with a fist. His humble attitude instantly won their favor. But there was one person among them who was an exception. He said "huh" softly. This person was the one who had urged Xiao San before - Dazhu. "Then, can we go together?" Li Shi asked, and Chen Huaian was overjoyed. He replied, "I couldn't ask for more." He and Lao Niu have been wandering in this forest for a month and have not yet gotten out. Now that someone is leading the way, he is more than happy to do so. What's more, the other party is from the escort agency, and Chen Huaian trusts the people from the escort agency very much. People working in the escort agency basically have good character, so Chen Huaian is not afraid that they will attack him. However, Chen Huaian felt that they might not trust him very much yet, because except for Li Shi, no one else had spoken yet.
They may have a good impression of him, but they dare not gamble with their lives. "Hahaha, welcome to join." Li Shi said with a smile that since Li Shi took the lead in expressing his opinion, no matter how reluctant others were, they would have to accept Chen Huaian's joining. So, after a brief exchange, the twelve people set off again. Chen Huaian couldn't help but sigh that it was convenient to have someone lead the way, and he avoided many troubles. During this month, Chen Huaian almost stepped on poisonous snakes several times, and the old cow that cheated him almost fell into a swamp. If Chen Huaian hadn't smelled a strange odor, the old cow would have stepped into it. Although the swamp had no impact on them, it was troublesome to change clothes, and Chen Huaian didn't want to step into it. "Father, why did you call in a blind man? What good can he do except eat our food?" A clear female voice sounded. Although the voice was soft, Chen Huaian heard it clearly. However, Chen Huaian did not mind because he did not intend to eat their food. He still had some food left, which should be enough for them to get out of the forest with the people from the escort agency. "Li Xiaoling, don't talk nonsense. Your father has been in the martial arts world for so many years and has never made a mistake in judging anyone. This blind man named Chen Huaian is no ordinary person." Li Xiaoling snorted after hearing this, "Dad, you are just a blind man who is suspicious of everything. How can you be so powerful?" Li Xiaoling got into the carriage angrily and stopped talking to Li Si. Just as Li Si was about to explain to Li Xiaoling why he made such a guess, she got into the carriage without giving him a chance to explain. "Oh, my daughter, you are so inexperienced that you don't understand what this situation means." "A blind man and a cow dare to walk in this dangerous forest. This is not something that ordinary people can do." Li Si said this in his heart, then he shook his head slightly and looked at Chen Huaian. The reason why he dared to recruit Chen Huaian was because he saw that Chen Huaian had a sense of righteousness and his words and deeds were very humble, not like a very evil person.
