Chapter 391 The hero's stumbling block on the road to escape from the famine 42

At night, everyone set up tents in an open space to rest. However, it started to rain in the middle of the night. It was spring and the rain was quite cold, which put out the fires lit by the soldiers on duty outside.

Fortunately, they prepared enough oilcloths, otherwise all the food they brought down from the mountain would have been soaked.

It was raining heavily, and water began to accumulate on the ground and flow into the tent. In the end, they could not sleep any more, so they simply gathered up their bedding and sat inside to avoid the rain.

Xiao Yun and other female relatives ran directly into the carriage and stayed there, leaving the tent empty for the soldiers who had not rested before. There were only a hundred soldiers, so they had to squeeze in.

"You deserve to be caught in the rain. You asked for it."

Jiaduobao suddenly spoke, which scared Xiao Yun.

After digesting the meaning of its words, he frowned and said, "What do you mean? This rain has something to do with us? Isn't it God's fault that we killed those bandits?"

"That's not the case. It was Yuan and his men who set the fire. He forgot that it was spring and the weather was dry and windy. After they set the fire, they left. The fire had already started to spread. The high temperature from the wildfire caused the rain. Otherwise, you would all be surrounded by the wildfire."

Jiaduobao replied with a gloating tone, he didn't expect Xiao Yun to make such a low-level mistake. Of course, the fire was set by A Yuan. Xiao Yun didn't go, but A Yuan came back and told her about it, so she should have thought of it.

Xiao Yun:……

She really didn't expect this. If it happened in modern times, she would definitely pay attention to it. After all, setting fire to a mountain would result in life imprisonment, which was indeed negligent here.

Xiao Yun thought for a moment and asked, "Is the fire out? Is the fire on the mountain serious? If not, get some spiritual water and sprinkle it there. Plants should grow again soon."

"It's out. It should have been put out long ago with such heavy rain. In addition to burning the bandit's den, it also burned a lot of surrounding trees. I'll go over and sprinkle some spiritual water, which will just mix with the rain water to dilute it."

After saying this, Jiaduobao floated away. Now it was in a soul state and was not afraid of rain.

Xiao Yun sighed. It was really inconvenient that she couldn't use her spiritual sense. If she had spiritual sense, she would know the spread of the fire at the first moment, and of course she would be able to control it at the first moment.

I have learned a lesson this time and I must be more careful next time.

At this time, she heard the soldiers walking and talking outside the car. She lifted the curtain and looked outside. It turned out that the rain had stopped and the sky was turning pale.

Everyone came out of the carriages and tents. Even though they were covered in mud, there was nothing they could do but to pack up their things.

The soldiers were busy packing up the tents, while the women were busy wiping the water off the horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts.

It’s impossible to make breakfast here. Not only is there no dry firewood, but the ground is also wet and there’s no way to make a fire.

We could only go to the next town, or rest there for a day. After a fierce battle and with the wounded, we should have had a good rest, but we didn't expect to encounter heavy rain in the middle of the night, and it was too tiring to travel like this.

A Yuan simply gave out half of the gold, silver and jewelry he had obtained yesterday, making them happy while letting them carry them on their own. He put the remaining things on the ox carts. If there was no room, he would tie the cart behind the ox cart and simply tow it.

The team set off again, heading towards the next town.

The road was not smooth, and the muddy road made the oxcarts and carts move slowly. Xiao Yun sat in the carriage, thinking about what to do after arriving in the town.

Finally, at noon, the outline of a town came into view.

After entering the city, everyone found the largest inn to settle down. Fortunately, there were not many guests in the inn, otherwise there would not be enough space for so many people.

A Yuan went to find a doctor to treat the wounded, which meant re-applying medicine and bandaging them. He still used Xiao Yun's medicine, but the medicine here was not as effective as hers.

Everyone took a nap right after lunch and didn't get up until the evening. After dinner, Xiao Yun came to the backyard of the inn alone. There was a stone table there. She sat there and looked at the starry sky.

The Purple Star Emperor is looming. Yaoyao is supposed to have ascended the throne, so the Purple Star should be very bright. Could there be any variables?

Suddenly, Jia Duo Bao appeared beside her and said mysteriously: "Xiao Yun, guess what I found when I entered this town just now."

Xiao Yun frowned, "Is there a hidden military camp here as well?"

"Have you discovered it? Didn't Xiao Lin and Lao Hui come back? Can you use your spiritual sense?"

Jiaduobao said in surprise.

Xiao Yun looked at it suddenly. She was just guessing, but she didn't expect to be right.

She shook her head and said, "My spiritual sense is not working yet. I just mentioned it casually. What's going on with this hidden military camp?"

Jia Duobao landed on the stone table and shook his illusory body. "When I came back, I floated back from the air, and I found that the layout of this town was a bit strange. There was no city wall, but the inner and outer cities were enclosed by courtyards.

Moreover, the courtyards in the "inner city" were all filled with middle-aged men, with no old, weak, women or children. Out of curiosity, I took a look and discovered that there was a secret room in each house, where weapons and armor were hidden!

Also, when I approached those people, I found that their auras were very strange. I couldn’t put my finger on what was wrong, but they just didn’t look like ordinary people.”

Xiao Yun pondered for a moment, "I'll go with you to check it out around midnight. Although she can't use her spiritual sense, she has a retrospective mirror. We can use it to check out the details of those people."

"Okay, I'll take you there, straight to the courtyard in the middle. I haven't been there before, and I have a feeling that if I go in, I'll alert the enemy." Jiaduobao responded.

Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows, "Your soul state can be discovered? Go look in the surrounding courtyards first to see if there are any special things or places."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Jiaduobao disappeared in an instant.

Xiao Yun looked up at the night sky, feeling a little uneasy.

If they are coming for them, then they are most likely not from this world, so they must find out the situation as soon as possible.

Just as I was thinking, Yuan came over and said, "Cousin, you are here. I was just about to look for you. I have been feeling a little weird since I entered the town. I was even a little flustered just now. I don't know what's going on."

Xiao Yun's eyes widened. It seemed that she and Jiaduobao were not the only ones who had sensed it.

Xiao Yun looked at the soldiers passing by from time to time, and said to A Yuan: "Jia Duobao just came back and told me the strangeness of this town. This town is built to be easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if we are in it, we may be surrounded by dumplings.

Also, the people living on the inner floor are all middle-aged men, without any old, weak, women or children. It is very likely that they are an army. This town was not built in a day or two. They may not be coming for us, but they may attack us.

You guys stay alert in the middle of the night. Jiaduobao and I will go investigate. You take the others and be ready to respond at any time."

A Yuan nodded seriously.

Xiao Yun originally planned to wait until two or three o'clock, when people were sleeping the deepest, but before she could make a move, the other party took action first!

She had not fallen asleep, and was just biding her time, when she heard a commotion outside, followed by the sound of swords clashing.

Xiao Yun hurriedly woke up Mingyue and the other two, asked them to stay in the house with their weapons, and then rushed out of the room.

I saw a group of people in black clothes fighting with their own soldiers. The other side obviously did not expect that our side was prepared and was caught off guard.

A Yuan holding a long sword could almost kill with one strike, while Gu Lanzhang and his son were also very vigorous in their long sticks. With the added strength, they could almost kill one person with one stick, and those who were hit lost the ability to resist.

Everyone was fighting bravely, but the enemies were too numerous and kept rushing in. Sooner or later, they would be at a disadvantage.

Xiao Yun glanced around and found that these people seemed to have lost all consciousness and only knew how to charge forward. Could they have been controlled?

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly saw a strange expression on the face of the leader, and those who were knocked to the ground seemed to be resurrected with full blood, and they all got up again and rushed forward.

More and more people on our side were injured, and some even fell down.

She made up her mind and didn't care about the wind and clouds in the sky. She put the retrospective mirror into her sea of ​​consciousness. She opened her eyes and saw a golden light flashing in them. She looked at the man again and instantly saw through his disguise. It turned out to be an alien!

Its body is like a shrimp, segmented, but its head is different. It has a big mouth full of sharp teeth, which is now open, and I don’t know if it is crying or laughing. There are many… uh, let’s call them claws for now, but they look soft and don’t match the hard-shelled body. They are constantly squirming…

"Jiaduobao!"

"Here I am! I came back with them. I was just about to tell you that they are under control."

"...I've already seen that the leader is a weird-looking creature. I'll try to control it temporarily. Go ask the Heavenly Dao of this world how to deal with this thing."

"Okay~" Jiaduobao quickly slipped away again.

While Xiao Yun secretly helped some soldiers deal with the men in black, he sent a message to A Yuan, asking him to let go of the opponent he was fighting and lead the alien in human skin to a more secluded place.

After receiving the order, A Yuan quickened his hands and killed several men in black around him, then went towards the man in black that Xiao Yun mentioned.

I thought it would be difficult. After all, I was the leader and must be more skilled.

Unexpectedly, this guy was a squishy guy. As soon as they fought, A Yuan cut off one of his arms. A Yuan was so scared that he didn't dare to continue fighting. He just grabbed the opponent and jumped into the corner.

Xiao Yun followed and directly took the other person into the space.

Once they were in the space, she had the final say. She first froze the other person and then searched his soul.

The search turned out to be an intelligent creature from the same dimension as the protagonist's system, in other words, an alien.

The plane where these aliens are located is more advanced, and they have developed technology that can cross planes. Science has even developed to the theological level, and can use the system to collect luck, beliefs, and even the origins of various worlds.

These are used to strengthen their world, and the collected worlds will collapse and disappear into the void.

This alien is not the creature that dominates that plane, but is more like an advance troop, driven by higher-level creatures and following the system to various planes.

They can parasitize in the human body and use mental power to control a thousand people to work for it. This is a backup plan that the system leaves for itself, so that they can come in handy in case of accidents.

Now Xiao Yun and the others are the accidents of the system. Yaoyao can only say that they have imprisoned the system but have not completely controlled it, so it can still remotely control the backup plans deployed.

The system has more than one backup plan, there are also backup plans in other places. They were set up when it came to this plane, much earlier than the male protagonist's soul came through.

They specifically choose to enter worlds where there will be travelers. Originally, those travelers will not cause harm to the world, and may even make the world a better place, after all, they have the halo of the protagonist.

It is because of the intervention of these systems that the protagonists are lured into voluntarily binding with them, and then plundering the world's luck and origin, causing many small worlds to collapse.

If this world had not been captured by the underworld and Xiao Yun had not been sent here, it would not have lasted long.

Xiao Yun felt like she was being used again, just like in the world of the richest man's daughter, or even worse than that world. At least people came to her clearly to ask for help. In this world, not only did the Heavenly Dao know nothing, but there were also all kinds of restrictions. If her son wasn't with that system, she wouldn't want to help at all.

At this time, Jiaduobao came back. "Heaven says that you can deal with these foreign invaders as you wish. The creatures of this world cannot resist them. Since you can discover and stop them, you can handle them with full authority. It will give you some support."

"Heh~" Xiao Yun sneered and gave her support. It wouldn't be spiritual support, right? If she wanted to get it for free, no way!

"Let Him do something practical, otherwise I will just leave it alone. At most, I will call Yaoyao back and let us find a place to live in seclusion together. I will also return the system to the hero."

"Don't~ As long as you help me get rid of these invaders, I will give you half of my essence and give you permission to enter and exit my world freely."

A somewhat weak voice sounded in Xiao Yun's mind, and Xiao Yun couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Oh, you're not pretending to be dead? You want me to solve your problem but you don't want me to bleed. You're dreaming. The source you want to give me is not with you. Let me guess. It's with the system.

You want me to clean up the system before I can get it back? I have to get the reward back myself, you are really stingy~"

"That...that's not..."

"Stop, are you trying to say that it originally belonged to you, but if I didn't help you, it would belong to someone else, and I could have taken it directly from that thing without having to go through you.

Admit it, you just want to get something for free!"

Tian Dao: "Okay, I admit that I don't have anything good to give you, but your son can become an emperor in my world, and his name will go down in history. He needs a lot of power of faith. If you accumulate it for thousands of years, maybe it can help him become a saint..."

"make a deal!"

Xiao Yun said simply and concisely.

For the sake of her son, she took the job.
