Chapter 79 Cattle Crisis After eating the beef buns, Chen Huaian and Lao Niu set out on the road again. Through Shushan magic, Chen Huaian could sense that the Third Elder was getting closer and closer to him. The closer he got, the more worried he became. "Fifteen years, and I don't know how strong the Third Elder is now." Now he felt that the Grandmaster realm was not a big threat to him, but the Third Elder was definitely not at the Grandmaster realm. If he was only at the Grandmaster realm, how could he possibly serve as the Third Elder of Shushan. "The next place we have to go is through the Beast Forest. After passing through there, we will be getting closer and closer to the county town where the Third Elder is, and also closer and closer to the center of the Yuntian Dynasty." "Old cow, don't get lost." "Moo." (How could this happen with me here?) "It is precisely because of you that the probability of this happening is greater." "Moo." (Don't trust me.) "That's right, but there's no reward." "Moo." (I'm throwing you down.) When Chen Huaian heard what Lao Niu said, he quickly smiled and said, "Just kidding, just kidding, don't take it seriously." It took Chen Huaian and Lao Niu three days to reach the forest they had to pass through - the Forest of Evil Beasts. As the name suggests, there were monsters and monsters running rampant here. "Old Cow, are you afraid?"
"Moo." (My second uncle should be inside, so he can eat as much as he wants.) Chen Huaian was amused by the old cow's words. It didn't even consider the danger inside, but was thinking about its second uncle inside. "You are really worthy of it." Chen Huaian said with a smile, he took out his flute, "Let's go." As he finished speaking, the melody of "No Return" sounded, and the man and the cow walked into the forest. In the first two days, they did not encounter any danger. From the third day, all kinds of monsters began to attack them, but they all became food for Chen Huaian and Lao Niu. "It's the fifth day." Chen Huaian estimated that he might have to stay in this forest for about a month because he needed to give the old cow some trial and error. At night, Chen Huaian and the old cow sat by the fire. The old cow looked at the meat roasting by the fire and couldn't help but sigh, "Moo." (Fragrant.) "Here you go. You'll be on guard tonight." "Moo." (No problem.) Chen Huaian used to sleep in trees, but on the third night a snake suddenly jumped out. If he hadn't reacted in time, his butt would have been in trouble. From then on, Chen Huaian slept on the ground and next to the fire. Nothing happened that night, but when Chen Huaian woke up, he found that Lao Niu was sleeping more soundly than him. "I knew you couldn't be trusted to keep watch." Chen Huaian walked over and "kindly" woke up Lao Niu. The old cow was kicked hard. It stood up with anger in its eyes and said, "Moo!" (Which bastard kicked me!) When it saw Chen Huaian, it knew it was in the wrong, and the flames it had raised immediately shrank. Chen Huaian had been on guard for two nights, but it fell asleep after only one day... "Moo." (I dreamed that my grandmother came to me and said she had something to discuss, so...) Chen Huaian was so angry that he laughed, "You're so naive, right? Believe it or not, I'll let you meet your naivety." "Moo." (I will keep watch tonight and promise not to fall asleep.) The old cow shouted hurriedly, and Chen Huaian stopped what he was doing. He was just trying to scare the old cow. If he really fought with the old cow, he might not have the upper hand. "Let's go. Where are we going today?" Chen Huaian asked. The old cow pointed in a direction, which was the west, heading deep into the forest. "Let's go, don't delay." Chen Huaian said. The old cow nodded, and Chen Huaian jumped on the back of the old cow, and the man and the cow set off again.
It was early morning, the sun was rising, and the light shone through the lush trees. The rays of light were projected down, like a painting drawn by a dream pen, which was wonderful. Seeing this, Chen Huaian took out his flute without any hesitation, "In this situation, how can I not play a song?" Chen Huaian played the flute, and the old cow carried him. They set off in the morning light. At noon, Chen Huaian and Lao Niu prepared to stop and take a rest. The barbecue remained the same, but they didn't take the pot. If they had, they might have been able to have a sip of the soup now. "We should bring the pot as well." Chen Huaian said while eating barbecue. "Moo." (I think you could buy another one.) "Good idea, why didn't you remind me before?" "Moo." (I thought you knew...) Chen Huaian and Lao Niu were eating barbecue and chatting with each other. Suddenly, the bushes around them made a rustling sound. Chen Huaian stood up instantly, his face full of vigilance. The old cow stood silently behind him with its back to Chen Huaian. It was there to deal with the monsters that might appear behind Chen Huaian at any time. "Moo!" A roar of a cow came from the tree. When the old cow heard the roar, its eyes lit up instantly. "Moo!" (It's my second uncle!) "Got it, I'll give you some extra food." Chen Huaian said, but the increasing number of cow calls made Chen Huaian realize that something was wrong, "Old Cow, quickly find a bush to hide in. It might be a herd of cows." Before Chen Huaian could finish his words, the old cow had already left. It showed its head and waved its hooves at Chen Huaian, as if to cheer him up. The corner of Chen Huaian's mouth twitched slightly. Lao Niu sold out his teammates too quickly, with almost no hesitation. Accompanied by the lowing of cows, one black cow after another walked out of the woods, with white breath coming out of their noses, as if they had been angered. "It's difficult." Chen Huaian said in his heart. When he finished speaking, the cows had already rushed towards him, but he did not move. He planned to wait for the cows to get closer and then jump on their backs to resolve this crisis. It’s not that he doesn’t want to hide, but these cows are obviously coming for him and the old cow. Chen Huaian believes that if it is a blessing, there will be no disaster, and if it is a disaster, there is no way to avoid it. Instead of hiding, he might as well endure this crisis. The cows might leave on their own when they found they couldn't hurt him. "It's getting closer, it's almost time." Just as Chen Huaian was about to jump, a voice suddenly appeared in his ears. It was a woman's voice, "Don't move, I'll pull you up." Chen Huaian: “?” "Where did she come from?!" Chen Huaian was confused and shocked. He didn't even notice when this woman appeared! Suddenly, he felt a rope tied around his waist, and an upward force pulled him up, flying in the air and landing on a tree. Chen Huaian couldn't keep his body steady. He wanted to see who could come to his side without him noticing. But when Chen Huaian was no longer flying in the air, he felt extremely uncomfortable because he was being hugged, and moreover, being hugged horizontally. If it was a man, he would not mind it, but the key point was that this was a woman! The cattle below were galloping past, but the woman seemed not to sense it. She flicked her tongue at Chen Huaian and then said playfully, "What do you think? I'm awesome, right?" (End of this chapter)
