Their actions alarmed the surrounding guards. When they saw that there was a small thing in front of the carriage, everyone was surprised and asked, "What is this?"
"It looks like a bichi!" someone said after carefully identifying it.
After all, this thing had a special shape and was easy to identify.
"Misfortune and fortune come hand in hand!"
The surrounding guards were in an uproar!
This thing was very famous. Even in the Sixty Thousand Mountains, it was extremely mysterious.
Moreover, the meaning of this thing made everyone's head throb.
However, the bichi didn't react at all to the surrounding people. It kept baring its teeth at the empress, and the hair on its tail stood up.
Ren Baqian looked at the bichi and then at the empress with a headache.
Why did this thing appear?
He hadn't gotten the White Rabbit Creamy Candy today … Only the empress ate a piece of chocolate!
At the thought of this, Ren Baqian carefully looked in the direction of the bichi's gaze and then at the carriage. He took out a piece of White Rabbit Creamy Candy and tore it open. Sure enough, the bichi's gaze immediately shifted to him.
Like a flame, it drilled into Ren Baqian's arms.
He felt his vision blur and felt as if he had been kicked in the face. The White Rabbit Creamy Candy in his hand also disappeared.
The flame snatched the White Rabbit Creamy Candy and disappeared into the darkness.
Even though Ren Baqian was an Earth Wheel expert, he couldn't keep up with the bichi's speed.
"It seems like this thing was attracted by sweets again!" Ren Baqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
How much did this thing like sweets? It was like this time as well.
"It's not sweets." The empress shook her head.
"No?" Ren Baqian looked at her inquisitively.
"From now on, everyone must be vigilant," the empress ordered the guards before speaking to Ren Baqian. "If it's sweets, there's honey in the mountains. Why would it come here? To it, this kind of candy might not taste better than honey. Plus, the smell of honey is stronger and can travel farther.
Besides, the mountain people often collect honey, and this thing has never been attracted by honey. "
Ren Baqian nodded. What the empress said made sense.
"However, it only appeared after the candy was taken out both times! It's like this once and twice. It can't be a coincidence, right? "
Ren Baqian was puzzled.
"You were there both times!" the empress suddenly said.
Ren Baqian was taken aback. "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"It's not necessarily because of the candy. Candy may be a little attractive, but it's only a little. It's impossible to be attracted by candy twice. Also, the smell of the candy wrapper is very faint. Although this thing's sense of smell is sensitive, it shouldn't be this sensitive. "
"I think it might have something to do with you. In fact, you've been lurking in the shadows ever since you arrived here. That's why you suddenly appeared. I'm afraid it was the same last time. "
Ren Baqian pondered for a while and had some doubts about the empress's words. "What do I have to attract it?"
"I don't know. But if you want to know if it's true, it's very simple. Get someone to take the candy and leave now. Tear the paper five kilometers away and see if it will appear. " As soon as the empress thought of it, she immediately ordered four people to bring Candy and leave in two different directions.
After an hour, the four of them returned.
"Your Majesty, that thing didn't appear," the four of them reported.
"As expected." The empress nodded her head in understanding. She then looked at the four of them and asked, "What's going on with your bodies?"
Out of the four of them, two of them were stained with blood and the other two had some dust on them. It seemed like they had encountered something.
"The two of us encountered a pack of wolves! That's strange. Usually, wolves hate themselves for not running fast enough when they see us! They actually dared to surround us today! "the two people at the back said. Wild beasts were actually very smart and could measure the strength of both sides.
Just the murderous aura from their bodies was enough to deter wild beasts from approaching them.
However, today was a little different.
"A rock rolled down from the mountain in front. If we didn't dodge quickly, we would have been hit." The other two people were surprised and sighed.
This thing was indeed as evil as the legends said.
The effect was immediate.
Nothing happened after they set off for more than ten days. However, something happened immediately after they saw that thing.
The empress and Ren Baqian had the same idea. Even though Ren Baqian had experienced it before, he felt that it was simply too coincidental.
"You guys can leave first. Remind the others to be careful even when resting."
After the two people left, the empress looked at Ren Baqian, took out a piece of chocolate from the box, tore it open, and threw it out of the carriage.
A fiery red light flashed, and the piece of chocolate disappeared without a trace before it landed on the ground.
"Sure enough, it's coming for you. It's following you in the dark." The empress finally confirmed it.
Seeing this scene, Ren Baqian was speechless.
Although he didn't know what it was doing, it seemed that the empress was right.
However, he was concerned about another matter.
"Your Majesty, you seem exceptionally wise and mighty today!" Ren Baqian looked at the empress curiously.
"Do you think I'm usually not smart enough?" The empress glanced at him and sneered.
"How is that possible? To be able to govern Dayao in such an orderly manner, your wisdom isn't something that ordinary people can fathom. I just feel that you rarely consider such trivial matters in the past, but you're actually so concerned about it today, "Ren Baqian said.
In fact … the empress wasn't usually considered to be extremely smart.
After all, the empress's strongest and most proficient area was her martial arts.
She definitely wouldn't think about things that could be solved with martial arts.
As for governing the country, there were still the officials in the imperial court.
However, the empress today made Ren Baqian feel a little different.
She seemed to be possessed by a primary school student!
With just one look, she could actually guess that he was the target of that thing.
And he didn't realize it at all.
"I'm just a little concerned," the empress said.
"What should we do now?" Ren Baqian looked at the darkness outside and asked. According to the empress, that little thing was somewhere in the darkness, looking at him.
This kind of feeling really made one's hair stand on end.
"That thing is too fast, and I can't catch up. Let everyone be on high alert and see how long that thing can follow us! As for what its purpose is, it will be revealed sooner or later, "the empress said.
"I'm afraid that there will be more twists and turns along the way." Ren Baqian had a headache. No one liked natural or man-made disasters along the way.
However, given the extent of this thing's evil, it was really possible!
Fortunately, even if the sky collapsed, there would be someone taller to hold it up.
The empress should be able to protect him, right?
…
By the next morning, the news of the bichi's appearance had already spread, and almost everyone in the team had heard about it.
Even the five students from the academy ran to Ren Baqian excitedly to confirm.
They wanted to know if this thing was really that evil.
After setting out on the road, everyone was still on high alert at first. Fortunately, nothing happened.
Half a day later, everyone arrived at a river. Just as the few winged cavalry warriors in the lead stepped onto the wooden bridge, they heard a cracking sound, and the wooden bridge under their feet started to shake.
"Oh no, run!" The few winged cavalry warriors on the bridge were shocked, but it was already too late to escape.
Crack. As if it had been in disrepair for a long time, the entire bridge kept making sounds. Then, it broke into two and collapsed.
A few winged cavalry warriors kicked their mounts and leaped into the air. They were then caught and pulled back by the others.
However, they could only barely escape. They watched helplessly as the jumping goats fell into the water and immediately set off huge waves.
A crocodile that was more than ten meters long popped its head out of the water and directly bit the jumping goats.
