Chapter 359 The evil woman who used poison is not worthy of the imperial physician (26)
After walking down this section of the mountain road, the gap between the Chen father and son and everyone else became obvious.
Whether they are mountain folk or bodyguards, they are all used to walking on such mountain roads.
However, Chen's father and son usually traveled by horse-drawn carriage, and it was inevitable that they would be exhausted after traveling on foot for such a long time.
"Can we take a break?" Chen Yanchuan asked the leader of his team while panting and supporting his father.
The escort leader frowned slightly: "We are the slowest and we are lagging behind. If we can't finish this mountain road tonight, we will have to stay in the mountains for another day tomorrow. I can't guarantee what we can find in the mountains during the day!"
"Yes, it's obvious that this person knows our place." A mountain dweller who was closer to them heard the leader's words and echoed, "Our mountain is different from other places, wild animals only come out during the day.
Because they know that people passing by here are traveling at night, and daytime is the time when they are least likely to attack."
"There are still wild beasts here?" Chen Banxia felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when he heard this. "Aren't we in danger now?"
He knew that Muyun Villa was mysterious, but he had never thought that it would be so difficult to get there.
Before, Chen Banxia had met people from the Baili family in the capital, even Baili Peng, the owner of Muyun Villa.
After walking this short distance on the mountain road, he began to believe what his wife said.
The mountain people looked at Chen Banxia helplessly: "Sir, don't you smell anything? These stones will emit some smell at night, which can effectively drive away wild animals so we are safe now."
In fact, the medicine on the stones alone is not enough. The Baili family planted an inconspicuous plant around these stones. It looks like weeds, but at night this plant will emit a gas.
This gas combined with the chemical volatilized from the stone will evolve into a rather special smell, which is okay for humans but very pungent for animals.
However, the mountain people only thought that there was something wrong with the stones and didn't know anything about the plants.
Mountain roads, wild beasts, and potions, everything they saw here built a whole new world of Jianghu in front of Chen and his son.
It seems that after leaving the capital, many things they come into contact with are different from before.
Unexpectedly, this night, which should have been quiet, suddenly had some unusual changes.
There were rustling sounds of footsteps, and some green "light spots" appeared on both sides of the "light band" ahead.
The mountain man who was talking so cheerfully just now suddenly changed his expression. He trembled and said, "Wolf pack...wolf pack!"
The person walking in the front has passed the section of road surrounded by green "light spots", but the team has obviously been blocked and divided into two sections.
"I shouldn't have talked to you just now." The old mountain man said angrily, "I would have passed by in this little time."
"Didn't you say it's safe here?" Chen Banxia was very disappointed at the moment, "How come we still encounter wolves?"
The old mountain villager didn't even look at Chen Banxia, he took out some medicine powder from his pocket and was about to pour it on himself.
"Don't worry, old man. Let me do it!" Baili Xuan stopped the old mountain man. "You should keep these things for self-defense in the future!"
After saying this, she took out a scented pill from the hollow bead on the chain on her wrist.
The incense balls are small, but the aroma is unique and the smell is extremely strong.
Baili Xuan crushed the small fragrant pill, and immediately saw a group of luminous butterflies with a color similar to the "light band" flying in the air.
The butterflies flew back and forth around the "light band" road for several times, as if they were looking for the specific location of the fragrant pill.
Because the incense pill was crushed in Baili Xuan's hands, there were the most luminous butterflies around her.
This luminous butterfly flutters in the air, shining like stars.
They surrounded Baili Xuan, forming a curtain as gorgeous as the starry sky. She gently stretched out her hand, and a butterfly landed on her fingertips, its wings trembling slightly, as if whispering to Baili Xuan.
Those who were originally a little frightened by the appearance of the wolves were now deeply shocked by this scene.
Baili Xuan stood in the Milky Way like a goddess, surrounded by luminous butterflies shining with silver light.
Under such a halo, even with her veil lowered and only her eyes visible, one would still feel that Baili Xuan is breathtakingly beautiful.
Huo Jinyi, who was beside her, seemed to dislike that so many people kept their eyes on Baili Xuan. He used his internal energy and blew a light palm wind, and the remaining powder from the incense pills flew far away.
Most of the butterflies also flew away following the powder.
However, the remaining butterflies will still surround Baili Xuan, as if expressing their affection to her.
Although the scene just now did not last too long, it was so dreamy and unforgettable.
The old mountain dweller was the first to come back to his senses. He exclaimed, "You are from the Baili family!"
