Beauty and the Bodyguard

Lin Yi could read Huangshan Mao\'s mind-he wasn\'t interested in leading a team, and since Huangshan Mao was on guard, he\'d better not be too aggressive.

For the time being, having a team like this as a cover wasn\'t bad-it\'d be much easier to get information and negotiate when they reached a place with more people, and Lin Yi was happy to help Huang shanmao rebuild his reputation.

Huangshan Mao let out a breath of relief after hearing Lin Yi\'s response, a smile on his face,"Vice-captain Sima\'s suggestion is very good, and it does make some sense. However, I still stand by my judgment this time. Thank you for your understanding, vice-captain Sima!"

The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding. Huangshan Mao was in a good mood and turned his horse around, heading in the direction he had chosen,"Everyone, keep up. We\'ll pass through this dense forest as soon as possible and try to set up camp in the wilderness tonight. We might even reach the town and have a good rest!"

Huangshan Mao did not forget to boost the morale of the soldiers. After getting a response, his smile became even wider. He took the lead and led the way, not even asking the others to Scout the way.

Qin wunian moved closer to Lin Yi and spoke in a volume that only the two of them could hear,""Sima Zhong da, Huangshan Mao is jealous of you! He\'s afraid that your reputation will surpass his and take his captain\'s position!"

"Actually, I think what you said makes more sense. Why don\'t we leave the team and take another path? I don\'t think Huangshan Mao would dare to chase us. Anyway, we have the Black Spirit Ferghana horse as a means of transportation, so there\'s no point in following them!"

Qin wunian was just leeching off Lin Yi at first, but now it had become a free ride. She had confidence in Lin Yi and was sure that Huang shanmao wouldn\'t dare to offend him.

As for the two black Spirit Ferghana horses, that wasn\'t a problem at all. Lin Yi had saved the entire team before, so what were two black Spirit Ferghana horses? If he waited for everyone to die before making a move, the twelve Black Spirit Ferghana horses in the cave would all be Lin Yi \'s, and Huang shanmao wouldn\'t lose anything!

"There\'s no need,"Lin Yi smiled,"let\'s just go together-it\'ll be more fun!" The general direction shouldn\'t be wrong, and we\'ll be able to leave the forest eventually, so you should know your place. "

Qin wunian pursed his lips inwardly. Isn\'t this injustice done to you? He really didn\'t know what a good person was like!

She actually wanted to go alone with Lin Yi more-she\'d been pestering him last night, and he\'d started giving her some advice, but someone came to disturb her.

Although the other party had good intentions and wanted to get on Lin Yi and Qin wunian\'s good side, it was a fact that she had affected Lin Yi\'s guidance. Therefore, being able to travel alone with Lin Yi was Qin wunian\'s small goal at the moment-at least he could guarantee that he wouldn\'t be disturbed!

But Lin Yi didn\'t want to leave, so she couldn\'t say much. What if Lin Yi was unhappy? What if he stopped teaching her martial arts techniques?

Sigh, what a headache!

Their whispers didn\'t attract any attention-Lin Yi\'s status in the team was different now, and no one dared to make him unhappy.

Not long after they left, they encountered a few darkness spirit beasts. They weren\'t very strong. They were at the xuansheng stage, mountain split stage, and so on. Huang shanmao and the others easily dealt with them. It was equivalent to them obtaining some income without any pressure.

For a moment, everyone was happy, completely sweeping away the bad luck and shadow of being suppressed by the night demonic wolf group yesterday, and there was more laughter as they advanced.

It felt like a leisurely trip!

"Hahaha, vice-captain Sima, did you see what I said? there\'s no danger on this path at all. It\'s the path we should take, and we\'ve gained quite a lot!"

Huang shanmao was in a great mood as he smiled at Lin Yi,"Although vice-captain Sima\'s opinion is also very good, it has been proven that I have more experience in this area! However, if vice-captain Sima were to train for another two years, he would definitely be able to do better than me!"

Qin wunian lowered his head and pursed his lips disdainfully. He felt that Huangshan Mao was really petty and had no tolerance. If such a person were to be the team leader, the team would probably have no future.

Lin Yi didn\'t mind as he smiled and nodded."Boss Huang is right. I still have a lot to learn. You have to teach me more in the future!"

Lin Yi\'s polite and humble attitude made Huang shanmao happy, but Lin Yi immediately changed the topic,"But I feel that the surrounding atmosphere is a bit off. We should be more vigilant!"

"Vice-captain Sima, what do you mean? Do you feel any danger?"

Huangshan Mao\'s brows rose slightly as he said disapprovingly,"Could it be that vice-captain Sima is overthinking? The darkness magical beasts and darkness spirit beasts we\'re encountering are getting weaker and weaker, which means that the edge of this dense forest will soon appear!"

"As we all know, the more powerful a magical beast is, the more they like to stay in the central area. That way, their range of activity will be larger, and it will be less easy for them to encounter hunting martial artists."

"The path we took to cross the forest was at the edge of the forest. We only went a little deeper because of the nine-leaf red gold ginseng. Now that we\'re back on the right track, we\'ll be able to leave the forest very soon. The magical beasts we encounter will only get weaker and weaker. What danger will there be?"

Huangshan Mao\'s tone was gentle, but he was implying that Lin Yi\'s worries were unfounded and meaningless. He wasn\'t letting go of any chance to damage Lin Yi\'s reputation!

Jin ziduo had also recovered his vitality. At this time, he echoed,""Boss Huang is right. This isn\'t the first time we\'ve encountered such a dense forest. We\'ve been through this many times."

"Boss Huang\'s experience is definitely our team\'s treasure. Vice-captain Sima, you don\'t have to worry too much. Nothing will go wrong if you follow boss Huang!"

"I\'m sure you two have a point, I\'m just reminding you. If you think it\'s unnecessary, then just pretend I didn\'t say anything!"Lin Yi smiled.

In fact, Lin Yi released his spirit sense and found something not too good. There should be a strong dark Demon beast nearby.

The exact situation wasn\'t clear yet, and the strength of the dark beasts wasn\'t clear either. Lin Yi had already warned them, but if the dark beasts were too strong for him to handle, then there was nothing he could do.

It was already good enough that he could protect Qin wunian and escape. As for the others, they could only pray for themselves!

"Vice-captain Sima was just being nice, how could you pretend you didn\'t say anything? Everyone, be alert and pay attention to the surroundings. If there\'s anything unusual, tell me immediately!"

Huangshan Mao ordered with a smile. He felt that he\'d successfully suppressed Lin Yi again, so he didn\'t mind showing off his big heart.
