Transmigrated into a book? A vicious female supporting character? A senior sister? Tsk tsk!

They completely ignored Tang Xinyan, who was quite a big, living creature... Tang Xinyan chuckled and raised her hand, her small, beady eyes following suit.

Tang Xinyan waved the top-grade spirit stone in front of her eyes, and the Treasure-Seeking Rat's tiny eyes slowly widened as if it had just woken up.

Its fur stood on end instantly, and it turned to run away, but Tang Xinyan grabbed it by the scruff of its neck and pulled it to her.

The little baby on my shoulder shook his head and couldn't help but sigh:

"How did this thing grow so big?"

Hearing Xiao Bao's voice, the silly boy turned to look at Xiao Bao. The moment he saw Xiao Bao, his whole body stiffened, and then he struggled even more violently.

Suddenly seized by a wicked impulse, Xiao Bao leaned closer to the treasure-hunting mouse and said in a sinister tone:

"Little guy, now you're trying to escape? Isn't it a bit too late? Hehehe..."

The treasure-hunting mouse trembled, its head lolled to the side... and it fainted...

Tang Xinyan: "........"

Xiao Bao: "........"

After a two-second silence, Xiao Bao hesitated before asking, "Sister, it's faking it, isn't it...?"

Tang Xinyan poked the treasure-hunting rat with her finger, but it didn't react. She then took out a top-grade spirit stone and handed it to the rat.

After a long while, there was still no movement. Tang Xinyan thought for a moment, took a crispy sausage from the supermarket, and placed it in front of the treasure-hunting mouse.

Speaking of which, this is her favorite. Every time she passed by the sausage grilling machine, the aroma wafting from the grilled sausages inside always tempted her to buy a couple.

If the treasure-hunting mouse didn't react at all, it would mean that this silly goose was really dizzy. As a result, before the treasure-hunting mouse could move, Xiao Bao couldn't help but react.

His eyes were fixed on the grilled sausage, and he forced back his drool, eagerly saying:

"Sister, this smells so good, Xiao Bao wants to eat it."

As soon as Xiao Bao finished speaking, the treasure-hunting mouse opened its eyes, its two front paws reaching out towards the sausage. Tang Xinyan pulled the sausage back slightly.

He waved the grilled sausage in his hand, tempting her:

"Want to eat?"

The treasure-hunting mouse nodded, squeaking incessantly. Seeing its nod, Tang Xinyan knew it understood, so she continued:

"Then you'll form a contract with me, help me find treasure, and I can eat these sausages as much as I want from now on, how about it?"

The treasure-hunting mouse looked at Tang Xinyan, then at the grilled sausage, hesitated for two seconds, then nodded again, squeaking, "Squeak, squeak, squeak." Seeing that the treasure-hunting mouse agreed,

Without hesitation, Tang Xinyan bit her finger, dab the blood on the Treasure-Seeking Rat's brow, and after silently reciting the contract incantation, the master-servant contract was instantly completed.

Tang Xinyan sensed a new consciousness entering her sea of ​​consciousness. Although it didn't speak human language, she could understand what it was trying to express.

That meant to tell her, "Master, it smells delicious, I want to eat it," and handed the sausage to the treasure-hunting mouse's paw, and then gave one to Xiao Bao.

Seeing the fox and mouse enjoying their meal, Tang Xinyan was infected by their enthusiasm and also took out a sausage to eat. Xiao Bao finished the sausage in just a few bites.

Just as he was about to ask for another one, his ears twitched, and he looked warily toward the edge of the grassland, whispering:

"Sister, someone's here."

Xiao Bao excels at deception; his spiritual sense is several levels stronger than his cultivation level, roughly equivalent to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.

Furthermore, Xiao Bao's divine sense is extremely concealed, making it difficult for even those with stronger divine sense to detect him.

So, Xiao Bao was basically on guard the whole way. When he heard Xiao Bao say that someone was coming, Tang Xinyan didn't hesitate to put the treasure-hunting rat into her contract space.

He then instructed Xiaobao:

"Xiao Bao, this grassland is too conspicuous. It's too late to hide now. Conceal your demonic aura and remember not to speak in front of people."

Xiao Bao nodded obediently, cast a cleansing spell on himself, jumped onto Tang Xinyan's shoulder and lay there obediently, while Tang Xinyan remained wary.

Pretending not to notice anyone approaching, she turned and walked towards the red maple forest. The person who approached her obviously saw her and quickly chased after her.

This made Tang Xinyan even more vigilant, after all, killing and stealing treasures was commonplace in secret realms, until the two were not far apart...

Seeing that she showed no sign of stopping, the person who came called out:

"Little uncle."

Tang Xinyan turned around in surprise, never expecting that the person who had just appeared was the man from the Hehuan Sect who had flirted with her...

Tang Xinyan rolled her eyes inwardly, crossed her arms warily, and asked, "What's up?"

Yu Zechen raised an eyebrow slightly, smiled charmingly, and said softly:

"It is fate that we met. I wonder if I could travel with Junior Uncle?"

Tang Xinyan did not hesitate:

"I'm sorry, first of all, we don't know each other, and secondly, I'm used to being alone."

Yu Zechen seemed unsurprised by Tang Xinyan's rejection, and his attitude remained warm and friendly.

"Junior Uncle, I am Yu Zechen, a disciple personally taught by the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect. I hope you will take good care of me in the future."

Tang Xinyan: "........"

Tang Xinyan didn't bother arguing with someone who didn't understand, so she simply turned and continued walking. Yu Zechen chuckled and followed.

Along the way, Yu Zechen wasn't too annoying, only occasionally asking one or two questions, which Tang Xinyan would politely answer.

As evening fell, the two reached the edge of the red maple forest. Looking at the somewhat eerie woods ahead, Yu Zechen's expression turned serious, and he suggested:

"Junior Uncle, this forest seems a bit strange. Shall we wait until tomorrow during the day to investigate further?"

In Tang Xinyan's mind, Xiao Bao's voice rang out:

"Sister, I smell a faint scent of blood, but I can't detect any demonic beasts. There's something wrong with this forest; we need to be careful."

Tang Xinyan nodded, recalling the plot as she walked along the edge of the forest. Yu Zechen didn't disturb her, instead using his divine sense to perceive the surroundings.

They hadn't found a suitable place to spend the night until it was completely dark, so the two of them had to move a little further away from the woods and take out their tents to rest.

In the middle of the night, Tang Xinyan, who was meditating, was interrupted by a woman's scream coming from afar. She stepped out of her tent, just as Yu Zechen also came out of the tent next to her.

Seeing Tang Xinyan come out, Yu Zechen said softly, "It should be coming from inside the Red Leaf Forest."

Tang Xinyan didn't speak. After confirming there was no danger around, she turned to go back to her tent. Yu Zechen was slightly surprised to see this.

Aren't you curious? Don't you want to go and see?

Tang Xinyan rolled her eyes and said indifferently, "Curiosity killed the cat."

Looking at the tent that had been closed again, Yu Zechen smiled faintly, glanced in the direction of the scream, and then turned back into the tent.

The next morning, Tang Xinyan stopped cultivating and stepped out of the tent. She saw Yu Zechen cooking something, and smelled the faint floral fragrance emanating from the pot.

Tang Xinyan asked curiously, "What are you cooking?"

Yu Zechen lifted the pot lid and said with a smile:

"It's lime flower soup, would you like to try some, Junior Uncle?"
