Chapter 191 Black Storm
Chapter 191 Black Storm
"What exactly is that black storm?"
"Black Storm! It is said that it is the breath exhaled by an ancient ferocious beast. The beast has been sleeping for thousands of years, but no one has ever seen it with their own eyes!" Yao Yingying bared her teeth and claws as if she was telling a ghost story. Her actions matched her words, making the beast's interpretation very vivid.
"Then do you know where this storm is going?"
"Well... no one can figure out the trajectory of the black storm, but if you want to find your friend, you might as well come with me back to Hope City to ask around! There are many merchants there, and information is widely circulated!" Yao Yingying responded after thinking for a moment.
Ye Qi was overjoyed upon hearing this. Although he hadn't yet found the whereabouts of Miss Mu and Yue Qingqing, at least he knew where to go to inquire about them. He immediately clasped his fists solemnly and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Yao!"
"You're welcome. Just take a good rest. I'll call you when the meal is ready!"
After Yao Yingying finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving Ye Qi alone with his arms behind his head, wondering where the two of them were.
"Hey! Boy!"
Less than half an hour after Yao Yingying left, two men came over and said to Ye Qi with disdain, "Boy! Miss Yao is kind-hearted and took you in. I hope you won't harbor evil thoughts just because she's innocent!"
"You two uncles have misunderstood. I mean no disrespect at all. I will always remember Miss Yao's life-saving grace and will never forget it!"
Ye Qi was not angry about the threats from the two men. After all, they had no ill intentions. They were just casual acquaintances and wanted to give him a warning. If it were him, he would probably be wary of someone who suddenly joined the team.
However, it can be seen that those people are very honest and have good hearts. It’s just that as guards, they need to eliminate danger!
"Young man! Since you're so energetic, don't lie down anymore. Come down and do some work. Consider it as payment for my care for you these past few days!"
Ye Qi scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled awkwardly. At this point, he felt that he was indeed a little tactless. Miss Yao asked him to lie in the car and wait for someone to call him for dinner. He really acted as if he was still the eldest son of the Ye family living in Fengcheng, waiting for others to take care of him at any time!
Just as Ye Qi got off the carriage and stretched his body, a young man who was setting up a tent called out to him, "Hey! Little brother! Come and give me a hand!"
Ye Qi walked over and busied himself with work until it was getting dark. Only when night fell did he see Miss Yao coming out of her tent again!
"You're so badly injured, why don't you just lie down and take care of yourself? Why did you come out?"
Miss Yao looked at Ye Qi with surprise. She had clearly told him to stay in the carriage and call him when it was time to eat, but now she found him busy and sweating profusely.
Seeing Ye Qi remained silent and only chuckled, Yao Yingying instantly guessed what had happened. She immediately took a step forward, staring at Ye Qi with her sparkling eyes, and asked, "Did they bully you?"
"No... no! The uncles have taken good care of me, how can there be any bullying?"
"That's right... Young friend Ye Qi is much more energetic when it comes to work than us old guys!" The middle-aged uncle who threatened and warned Ye Qi at the beginning patted his shoulder and smiled at Miss Yao with a guilty look.
"Forget it! Forget it! Now that you're feeling better, moving around will always help you recover faster than lying down all the time. But be careful not to overexert yourself, otherwise it will be detrimental to your recovery. Do you understand?"
Yao Yingying kept chattering in Ye Qi's ear. She was even more talkative than Shu'er. But thinking of Shu'er, he wondered if she was still suffering from the disease!
"Hey! What are you grinning at?" Yao Yingying looked at the silly boy in front of her, and suddenly a blush appeared on her cheeks. There were many boys who had secretly looked at her since she was a child, but he was the first one who had such an unscrupulous expression on his face. She was immediately furious and waved her little fist to scare him!
"Sorry! Miss Yao, when I saw you, I suddenly thought of my lost...sister!" Ye Qi was a little embarrassed after he reacted. He avoided the gaze in panic and scratched his head helplessly, like a young boy who was ignorant of the world!
"Forget it! Forget it! You don't look like a bad person. I'll go get a pot of wine and get drunk tonight!" Yao Yingying said as she stood up and walked towards the tent where she was temporarily living.
"Boy! Don't think that Miss Yao cares about you because she's secretly in love with you. She treats everyone like this!"
The middle-aged man picked up his wine bag, put it in his mouth and took a few big gulps, then gave Ye Qi a look that everyone understood!
It seemed as if Ye Qi was attracted by Yao Yingying's lovely appearance and kind character. After all, he had been a guard in the Yao family for so many years, and he had some knowledge of how popular Miss Yao was in Hope City!
"Uncle! You really misunderstood!"
"What are you talking about? Are you so happy?"
Just when Ye Qi was still anxious to prove his innocence, Yao Yingying came over from behind with a wine bag in her hand, but she did not drink it, but handed it to Ye Qi.
Ye Qi casually took it, took a sip, and then asked casually: "What kind of wine is this? Why is it so salty?"
Everyone looked at Ye Qi's grinning face and burst into laughter. Only Yao Yingying on the side said with a guilty conscience: "This is... horse urine!"
“Horse urine?”
"puff!"
"vomit!"
As Yao Yingying spoke of the contents of the wine bag, Ye Qi suddenly felt his stomach churning and a feeling of nausea washed over him.
Even when I experienced life-and-death battles in the past, I had never felt so miserable and aggrieved. After all, I had escaped from the hands of a strong man in the Half-Step Heart-Moving Realm, but I actually suffered a loss at the hands of a little girl. I felt so sad that I couldn't express it in words!
"Don't think I'm kidding you. You've been out here in the desert, sunburned for who knows how many days. You should be happy that we found you and saved your life. Don't look at you jumping around now. It's fine if you just lie there quietly. But once you sweat, your body will fall into a coma from lack of salt. You're such an ungrateful brat!"
