Chapter 444: Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate 4
The three demons went up the wooden stairs to the second floor and were led to an elegant private room.
The decoration here is simple yet stylish. There are several landscape paintings with profound artistic conception hanging on the wall, adding a touch of literati atmosphere to the room.
The maid walked in lightly and served the three demons exquisite snacks and a pot of fragrant tea.
She poured tea for everyone, then smiled and walked out, closing the door gently.
The room fell silent.
Lan Ge took a sip of tea, then put down the cup and looked at Xiaoying and Xuanlin.
His eyes revealed a hint of elder's concern and seriousness.
"Although you two have some skills, it seems that you don't quite understand the rules of the human world."
Lan Ge spoke slowly, with a hint of instruction in his tone.
"Walking in the human world is not as free as in the mountains. There are many rules and taboos here. If you are not careful, you may get into trouble."
Xiaoying and Xuanlin looked at each other and realized that Lan Ge had misunderstood their identities, but they did not correct it immediately.
Xuan Lin blinked and showed a teachable expression: "This is indeed our first time out for training. You are experienced, so you should come out to play often, right?"
Xiaoying also nodded in agreement: "Yes, we don't quite understand the rules here. If there is anything we need to pay attention to, please give us your guidance."
Seeing their sincere attitude, Lan Ge nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, then I'll tell you. First of all, the order of the world is maintained by various forces. People like the one in the Marquis' Mansion just now have powerful backers behind them, and we can't easily provoke them. When you meet such people, try to avoid conflict."
"Secondly, the laws and moral norms of the human world are also very important. For example, you cannot cast spells at will, you cannot reveal your true identity in front of others, and you cannot harm innocent people. These are basic rules. If you violate them, you may be hunted down by law enforcement officers in the human world."
"Finally, and most importantly, you must know how to protect yourself. In the human world, in addition to dealing with the entanglements of various forces, you must also be careful of the demons and monsters hiding in the dark. You must always be vigilant, do not trust others easily, and do not expose your weaknesses to others."
Xiaoying and Xuanlin listened carefully and nodded from time to time to show their understanding.
"Thank you, brother. We will remember it."
Xiaoying smiled and said, "We will be careful in the future."
Lan Ge looked at them, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.
These two young men were very much to his liking. If he traveled with them, the future journey would surely be full of excitement and novelty.
His mind moved, "Where are you going next? Do you have a destination?"
Xiaoying blinked and said, "No, we are new here and don't know where to have fun."
Xuan Lin nodded. They were tired of wandering around in this city, and maybe it would be more fun outside.
Lan Ge couldn't help but be overjoyed. He invited, "I'm going to look for the legendary Dragon Gate. Why don't we go together?"
Xiaoying smiled and nodded: "Okay, then let's go together and see it for ourselves."
The three demons reached a consensus and decided to travel together.
There wasn't much to pack, so after determining the direction, the three demons packed some food and supplies and set off.
Lan Ge couldn't see the true identities of Xiaoying and Xuanlin, so he asked curiously.
"What kind of monsters are you two? I can't tell."
Xuan Lin said: "I am a water snake."
Xiaoying thought for a moment and said, "I am also a water snake."
Lan Ge looked at the snake tails transformed by Xiaoying and Xuanlin, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He was originally worried that if his companions were land monsters, it would be inconvenient to go to the sea to search for the Dragon Gate. Now it seems that this worry is unnecessary.
"Great! Since they are all water-type monsters, we will be more comfortable in the sea."
Xiaoying smiled, "Yeah, I heard that there are not only beautiful coral reefs and colorful fish under the sea, we can go and see them."
...
To get from the Bi Bo River to the seashore, one has to pass through a dark valley, a valley shrouded in mist and shadows, and the hiding place of many great monsters.
These big monsters are rampant in the human world, which is undoubtedly a huge threat to small monsters like Lan Ge.
Xiaoying restrained her aura and tried her best to pretend to be an inconspicuous little white in order to confuse the big demon.
Not surprisingly, the three monsters would be discovered and hunted down by the big monster every time.
In the deepest part of the Dark Valley, we encountered a giant peacock monster.
The feathers of this peacock demon were like burning flames. It was particularly conspicuous in the dark valley. Every flap of its wings brought up a hot air current, burning the surrounding trees and rocks black.
The peacock demon discovered the three uninvited guests and let out a sharp cry, its voice full of anger and threat.
There were flames flashing in its eyes, as if it wanted to burn all invaders to ashes.
Lan Ge's natural enemy is birds. When he heard the cry of the peacock demon, he immediately shrank his neck and became a little timid.
But when he saw Xiaoying and Xuanlin huddled together in fear, he mustered up the courage to face the big monster.
His water power is the nemesis of the Peacock Demon. He quickly concentrated his mind and prepared to launch an attack.
"Xiaoying, Xuanlin, get out of the way!" Lan Ge shouted loudly.
Xiaoying and Xuanlin immediately moved away quickly and hid behind a big rock.
Lan Ge launched his attack. He clasped his hands together and chanted a spell. A powerful stream of water gushed out from the ground and headed straight for the fire bird monster.
Wherever the water flowed, the flames were quickly extinguished, the feathers of the Fire Bird Demon were also soaked by water, and its flying speed dropped significantly.
The firebird demon realized the danger and tried to flap its wings and fly away to escape from Lan Ge's attack range.
But Lan Ge had already arrived under it silently. He jumped up suddenly and hit the fire bird monster in the abdomen with all his strength.
The fire bird demon let out a painful cry. Its figure swayed a few times in the air and it almost lost its balance and fell to the ground.
Lan Ge did not miss this opportunity. He quickly launched another attack. A series of water arrows flew towards the peacock monster. The peacock could only struggle to fly towards the sky.
"Xiaoying, Xuanlin, hurry up!"
Lan Ge roared and ran away quickly. The peacock was too powerful and he couldn't defeat it. The most important thing was to escape.
Xiaoying and Xuanlin hurriedly caught up. This Lan Ge was quite powerful and actually fought off the peacock monster.
They fled everywhere in the mountains and forests, using the terrain and the cover of night to avoid being hunted down. Once they got out of the territory of the Peacock Demon, the Peacock did not chase them, and the three demons were finally safe.
They spent several sleepless nights in the Dark Valley, always alert to the movements around them, fearing that the big demon would come again.
When they arrived at the seaside, they were exhausted, but their hearts were filled with joy.
