The next morning, Fengjiu came out of the space and continued on her journey alone. As she was walking on a remote mountain road, she met few people along the way. What she didn't expect was that at noon, when she was sitting on a tree to rest and eat spiritual fruit, she saw several monks in blue robes riding swords and heading north.
Seeing this, her eyes flashed slightly, and she immediately ate the spiritual fruit in two or three bites, then quietly followed behind those people. She didn't follow too close, nor too far away. While following, she paid attention to their words and actions, especially the thinner figure among them.
The blue-robed monks flying on swords saw that the midday sun was quite strong, so one of them said, "Why don't we take a break? Stop and drink some water. The midday sun is too hot. We are sweating from flying under the scorching sun."
Seeing this, another older monk said, "Okay, let's go and rest under the tree in front!"
After hearing this, the other monks looked at each other with a hint of joy on their faces. They immediately quickened their pace and went forward to rest in the shady place ahead.
Sitting under the tree, several people took out their water bags and drank. One of them emptied the water bag after drinking a few drops. Seeing that there was no water in it, he looked around and then looked at the older monk and asked, "Brother Lin, is there any water nearby?"
"There is no water here. We have to walk a long way ahead to find a water source." The older monk said, glanced at his empty water bag and said, "How about you use mine?" Although he asked, he had no intention of handing it over.
The man smiled and said, "No, no, how can I use your water? I remember that Junior Brother Ruan just filled his water bag with water last night. I think there should still be a lot of water, right, Junior Brother Ruan?"
He looked at the thin man who was sitting silently beside him and stared at him with a forced smile.
Seeing that the other party was staring at him, no, to be more precise, he was staring at the water bag in his hand, the man surnamed Ruan lowered his eyes, pursed his lips for a pause, then handed over the water bag in his hand.
The other people all looked as if they were used to this scene. Obviously, this was not the first time such a thing had happened.
The man took the other man's water bag and poured all the water into his own water bag. He then threw the empty water bag back to him and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Ruan! You don't have much water left, so I poured it all out. You shouldn't mind, right?"
"No, I'm not thirsty anymore." The man said, with a hint of cowardice in his voice.
"That's good." The man smiled with satisfaction.
The group sat for a while, took a break, and then continued to fly their swords. In the dark, Fengjiu watched them leave, then walked out from behind a tree, and followed them quietly.
She did not fly again, but chose to follow them using the cover of trees on the mountain path. This way, it would be less likely to expose herself. As for those people, she guessed that they should be from the hidden sect.
Right now, she is waiting, waiting for an opportunity.
That night, the men rested in the forest. She watched from the dark, calming down, as they ordered the man surnamed Ruan to pick up branches to warm them up and drive away mosquitoes at night. Baidu "天医凤九杰众文学" to read the latest chapters for free.
