When they saw Lin Qiaole again, the winged cavalry warriors were obviously much more friendly.
"So it's Librarian Lin!"
Although Ren Baqian had mentioned her before, everyone still felt that she looked more familiar when they saw her pair of A's.
After all, the sight of her dozing off and drooling while tied to the mount had long been deeply engraved in their hearts.
The only doubt was why she had shrunk back overnight.
Both her figure and appearance.
Since Lin Qiaole was in so much pain because she had shrunk her pair of A's, Ren Baqian treated her to a big meal.
They booked a dessert shop.
In fact, there was no need to turn her grief into food. After seeing the desserts, Lin Qiaole hesitated for three seconds and put aside her pair of A's.
After finishing the dessert shop, Lin Qiaole got into the car and looked like she was about to cry again. "What should I do? There's nothing left … "
Ren Baqian looked at her and asked, "Do you want to eat another dessert shop?"
After he finished speaking, Lin Qiaole immediately looked away and said, "I just feel sorry for you!"
"Let me tell you, I used this trick when I was five years old." Ren Baqian grinned.
When he was four or five years old, his father forgot him in kindergarten. All the other children had been picked up, and he was the only one left crying. It was a military kindergarten, and the soldiers in the kitchen gave him a nanguo pear when they saw how badly he was crying.
After eating it, he felt that it was delicious and wanted more. The child didn't know what else to do and continued to cry.
He cried until his father came to pick him up with a claw mark on his forehead, but he didn't get another one.
This incident had always been a deep regret for him.
When he saw Lin Qiaole, he was reminded of himself in the past.
This trick was exactly the same as what he used in the past!
After staying on Earth for two days, he prepared a large number of White Rabbit Creamy Candies for Lin Qiaole and instructed the winged cavalry warriors to keep an eye on her before returning to Dayao.
Lin Qiaole had already been tricked once. If she met that herdsman again, it would be troublesome. After that herdsman ran away, he might meet up with other herdsmen, so he might as well leave her on Earth.
Of course, asking the winged cavalry to keep an eye on her was just a casual instruction.
In fact, with a place to sleep and White Rabbit Creamy Candies to eat, Ren Baqian estimated that Lin Qiaole might still be there in 100 years as long as there wasn't the end of the world.
When Ren Baqian returned to Dayao, the forest had already been cleaned up. All the trees were piled together and burned to ashes along with the corpses that were dug out.
Seeing that Ren Baqian had returned, the empress looked behind him and didn't see Lin Qiaole.
"What about her?"
"I'm staying on Earth." Ren Baqian explained the reason to the empress.
"She changed back to her original form. Looks like her evolution had a time limit. I think it might have something to do with the jade-waisted slaves she ate. "
At the mention of the jade-waisted slaves, the empress's face turned ugly. Every jade-waisted slave was a human life. What was the difference between eating them and eating humans? Furthermore, they were her people.
However, she would not blame Lin Qiaole for this.
The fire had burned down half of the place. Some people were left behind to guard the place while the others moved on to the next target.
Three days later, the empress issued an order for Xi Wanya, the Protector General of the South, to immediately set off for the Sixty Thousand Mountains to coordinate the investigation of the situation in the stronghold.
She also transferred more than ten people from the Ministry of Revenue and prepared to use two years to record the situation of the strongholds in the Sixty Thousand Mountains.
After this was done, she would establish a household registration management system. In the future, all the establishment and relocation of the strongholds would have to be recorded to prevent a situation like this from happening again. Millions of people had disappeared without anyone knowing.
Another plan was to establish two new protectorates. One would be the Yun Protectorate and the other would be the Protectorate of the South.
The first was naturally to rule the Yun Nation, and the second was to be in charge of the Sixty Thousand Mountains.
In the past, she had always thought that the dangers in the mountains were natural disasters and beasts. After this incident, she realized that there were other enemies in the mountains.
Two days later.
Everyone was approaching the next target.
The sound of a night cat could be heard in front of the group. The sound was long at first and then became short.
After half an hour, a winged cavalry warrior came to report, "Your Majesty, the person who was scouting here previously hasn't appeared."
"Search!" The empress frowned. This wasn't a good sign.
After searching for an entire afternoon, they found the strange forest more than five kilometers away. However, they couldn't find any traces of the person who was monitoring the area.
This meant that this winged cavalry warrior had probably fallen into the hands of the other party.
When night fell, another discovery gave everyone a bad premonition.
The jade-waisted slaves didn't appear in the strange forest.
"Your Majesty, I reckon that the herdsmen here have already received the news and left," Ren Baqian said.
The empress was silent for a long time before looking up at Qi Ziting and saying, "Brother, bring some people and wait here for another day. I'll go to another place."
"If the jade-waisted slaves don't appear by tomorrow … destroy this forest," the empress added.
Considering that every herdsman had such a forest and that jade-waisted slaves would appear in it every day, everyone suspected that this forest might be their food or a necessity for their survival.
Although they didn't know the truth, they knew that there must be a reason for its existence and that it was extremely important to both the herdsmen and the jade-waisted slaves.
"Understood!" Qi Ziting nodded. "You should be careful. You are the empress. Others can encounter danger, but not you! "
That night, the empress and Ren Baqian led 600 people to the next location.
A week later, when they climbed over a mountain peak, Ren Baqian suddenly felt that the sky ahead had cleared up.
The vibrant colors, birdsong, and fragrance of flowers had returned, as if the sky had cleared up after the rain.
"Wait a minute!" Ren Baqian stood on the back of the crow general and looked down the mountain. It was gloomy everywhere, as if there was a lack of color.
Looking ahead, it was a scene full of vitality.
"We are finally out!" Ren Baqian laughed.
"I can't even feel good in that horrible place."
The rest of the people also looked relieved.
After staying in such a gloomy place for so long, even their hearts were shrouded in a haze.
"Continue forward," the empress ordered, and everyone rode their mounts down the mountain.
"Bang! Bang!" As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, they suddenly felt the ground shake. A series of collisions could be heard in the forest ahead, and the trees in the distance began to fall.
"Be alert!" someone in front immediately shouted.
As the trees fell, a huge creature rushed out of the forest.
It was a seven-meter-tall beast with three horns on its head that looked like a rhinoceros.
Ren Baqian felt that this creature was more like a dinosaur than a rhinoceros.
After rushing out of the forest for more than 200 meters, the beast turned around and roared at the forest.
Following which, an even bigger creature appeared.
A silverback gorilla that was more than 10 meters tall pulled out a tree from the edge of the forest that required two people to hug and threw it at the rhinoceros.
"Tsk … King Kong!" Ren Baqian gasped.
He didn't expect to encounter such a battle between beasts as soon as he left the mountain.
However, the battle ended very quickly. The two Direbeasts did not fight to the death when there were people around. The rhinoceros ran away first, and the silverback gorilla did not chase after it. Instead, it roared a few times at the crowd and punched the ground a few times with its water-tank-sized fists. Almost every punch created a pit in the ground.
After intimidating the rhinoceros, the gorilla returned to the forest.
"Your Majesty, how strong are these two beasts?" Ren Baqian pondered for a while and asked. Given the power of the gorilla, he reckoned that his [Yang Boosting Technique] wouldn't work on it.
The empress wasn't too surprised and replied faintly, "Roughly equivalent to a beginner Cardinal Heaven expert."
She then called a winged cavalry warrior over and asked, "Where are they?"
"Your Majesty, in a valley about a day's journey away."
