Shen Luo did not force the Basah into the Qiankun bag, but just continued to close his eyes, trying to restore his magic power to full.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, something's not right!" He had just entered a state of meditation when the surprised voice of the Basherah sounded in his ears again.
"What's wrong?" Shen Luo asked with his eyes open, without any impatience.
He already had a general understanding of the character of the Basher. This monster was quite steady and not a noisy, frivolous person. This behavior must have shown that it had noticed something.
"Just now, I spread out my spiritual sense to explore the surrounding environment, and all the blood-marked hummingbirds within a hundred miles have disappeared!" Bashe said in surprise.
"Could it be that the Nine-Headed Insect thought that the Blood-Patterned Hummingbird couldn't find us, so it took it back and asked other spirit insects and birds to look for us?" Shen Luo also spread out his spiritual sense after hearing this, and guessed after finding that it was indeed as the Bashe said.
"As far as I know, the Blood-Striped Hummingbird is the Nine-Headed Insect's best reconnaissance bird. This insect can't find us, and the same is true if other birds and insects are replaced. I'm afraid that the Nine-Headed Insect recalled the Blood-Striped Hummingbird not to give up the reconnaissance, but for other purposes. As for what its purpose is, I can't guess." The Basher said slowly.
"Since Fellow Daoist Bashe feels that something is fishy, it is not appropriate for us to continue hiding here defenselessly. Let's send people to investigate around first." Shen Luo said thoughtfully, then used the technique of communicating with spirits and summoning demons to summon the mirror demon.
"This Mirror Monster is from the East China Sea monster clan. Mirror Monster, this is Daoist Fellow Bashe, the helper I just accepted." Shen Luo briefly introduced the Mirror Monster and Bashe to each other.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Mirror Demon, nice to meet you." Bashe gave a dry laugh and greeted Mirror Demon.
The mirror demon looked at the snake curiously, bowed and saluted, and then looked at Shen Luo: "I wonder what the master wants me to do this time?"
"It's like this..." Shen Luo briefly explained the grudge between him and the Nine-headed Insect, as well as the current situation to the Mirror Monster.
"... Fellow Daoist Bashe and I have already met the Nine-Headed Insect, so it's not convenient for us to go out and investigate the situation. You go check the surroundings and come back immediately if you encounter any danger." Shen Luo said at last.
"Okay." The Mirror Demon was quite curious about Yunmengze and would not disobey Shen Luo's orders. He nodded immediately and then turned into a blue light and rushed into the sky.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, you're going to let this mirror monster go out alone? Aren't you afraid that she'll encounter some danger?" Bashe said.
"Although Fellow Daoist Mirror Demon's cultivation is not high, he possesses several unique abilities, so protecting himself is not a problem." Shen Luo said with a faint smile.
After hearing this, Bashe said nothing more.
Shen Luo closed his eyes, intending to continue practicing while waiting for the mirror monster's investigation results.
However, it seemed as if God was determined to go against him. As soon as he closed his eyes, a hurried voice sounded in his heart. It was the ghost general.
"Master, something terrible has happened. A swarm of blood-red wasps are flying over from a distance and will soon reach the cave!"
"Blood red wasp! How is things with Senior Ao Lie?" Shen Luo was shocked and immediately asked in voice transmission.
"Senior Ao Lie and Wu Man'er are still recuperating in the secret room. There are other restrictions there, and I can't see what's going on inside." said the ghost general.
"Those are blood-patterned hummingbirds, the spiritual pets used by the Nine-headed Insect to detect enemies. You stay in the cave, I will go back soon!" Shen Luo frowned and said immediately.
