Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Then, is there anything you don't understand? You can ask me any questions you have now. Otherwise, you won't be able to speak loudly after we leave this tree hole. " Chu bubai said to the crowd.

It was absolutely forbidden to speak loudly in the dense forest. It would be a disaster if the powerful and violent spirit beasts nearby were alarmed.

"There's nothing else," Guo dengtao and Wang Feng looked at each other and shook their heads. The route was clearly marked on the map, and Lin Yi's question made them understand the reliability of the map. There was nothing else to ask.

"What about you?" Chu bubai looked at Lin Yi and raised his head.

"I don't have a problem with that either, brother Chu has already explained it very clearly." Lin Yi said with a faint smile.

Of course, he was not completely at ease with Chu bubai like Guo dengtao. The reason why he asked so many questions was not only to test the reliability of the so-called family heirloom map, but also to numb Chu bubai.

After all, a normal person would know that Lin Yi wasn't that easy to fool-they'd have to be careful if he didn't ask anything, but since he was this careful and asked so many questions, he'd let down his guard already.

If it was only a 30% guess before, then Lin Yi was at least 50% sure now that this Chu bubai was up to something. He couldn't tell what he was planning, though.

"Alright, time is limited. Everyone, pack up and adjust. We'll set off immediately." Chu bubai nodded, signaling everyone to prepare themselves. He then led the way out of the tree hole.

Feng Hongyu, Guo dengtao, and Wang Feng also followed her out excitedly. Lin Yi, who was at the back, gave Huang xiaotao a look to tell her to be careful and follow him closely before following her out of the tree hole.

Feeling the cool air outside, everyone's excitement caused by the baby ginseng dissipated a little. Their minds were also instantly sobered up. One by one, they were on high alert and on guard against everything around them.

Previously, in the tree hole, everyone still felt a sense of security, but now that they were exposed in the forest, even if they were all golden core stage Masters, they could not help but be on tenterhooks, afraid that they would suddenly encounter a powerful and violent spirit beast.

Chu bubai took the lead, but he didn't lead the group straight ahead. Instead, he took out a compass from Lin Yi's bag and compared it to the surroundings.

Although he had already roughly determined the location, he was leading the group deep into the mountains. Even the slightest error could cost them their lives, so it was necessary to confirm it again.

In the deep mountains and dense forests, the most dangerous thing was to lose one's direction, followed by spirit beasts. As Jindan stage Masters, they still had a chance of survival in the face of powerful spirit beasts, but if they lost their direction, there would only be one end, and that was complete annihilation.

Lin Yi secretly paid attention to Chu bubai's every move and realized that this person was not simple. Putting aside his suspicions, from the beginning until now, this person's performance in all aspects could be considered impeccable. He could be called perfect.

For example, even if an ordinary person had his very detailed family heirloom map, even with the help of a compass, it would be difficult to determine the location in a short time under this thick miasma fog.

Lin Yi had received professional training in this area before he left the secular world, but even he couldn't match his current location to the map in a short time. Chu bubai, on the other hand, was familiar with this area.

Apart from his familiarity with the map, another important reason was that the method Chu bubai used to identify the map was new and professional to Lin Yi.

Not only did he need to use the compass, but Chu bubai would also carefully check the types of plants around him. He would even deliberately look for some low-level herbs and identify them one by one before confirming them with the family map in his hand.

On this family map, there was indeed a detailed note of the species of plants and herbs in a certain area, which was even comparable to a professional scientific research Map. If it were other people like Guo dengtao, even if they had this super-detailed map, they wouldn't be able to play much of a role at all.

It was clear that Chu bubai had made careful preparations for this. Lin Yi was surprised, but he also looked forward to the baby ginseng.

No matter what tricks Chu bubai had up his sleeve, since he had made so many preparations, it was impossible for him to just play with people. The clues about the baby ginseng seemed to be most likely true.

"Everyone, be careful. Be on high alert and follow me closely. Don't fall behind." After Chu bubai confirmed the location and direction, he lowered his voice and informed the crowd. Then, he immediately led the way.

Everyone didn't dare to be the slightest bit slow and hurriedly followed closely behind. If they were to fall behind in this kind of place, they really wouldn't be able to find a place even if they cried.

Along the way, everyone followed the map. Every once in a while, they would stop to re-confirm the direction to avoid going the wrong way. Other than Chu bubai, who was leading the way, the others took turns to be on guard. They did not dare to let their guard down.

in order to prevent mental fatigue from being caused by the continuous journey, even if everyone was a master of the golden core stage, they would consciously stop to meditate and rest every six hours. when the sky was completely dark, they would find a tree hole or a cave to rest for the night and wait until dawn to set off.

for the next few days, apart from resting, everyone was rushing on their way. although they would occasionally encounter spirit beasts, they were able to avoid danger because they were on high alert. under chu bubai's lead, everyone advanced into the core of lufeng forest.

if the crowd still had some doubts about chu bubai before this, guo dengtao and wang feng were now completely convinced by him after experiencing it for themselves for the past few days.

the location they were at now was already at the core of lufeng forest. if they were the ones who came here, they would not even be able to reach halfway, let alone make it all the way here. they would have been lost in the vast dense forest or simply become food for the spirit beasts.

chu bubai's route map was indeed a family heirloom that couldn't be bought on the market. guo dengtao and the others 'trust in chu bubai increased even more. it had even gradually developed to the point where they no longer had any doubts about what chu bubai said. instead, they would do as he said without a second word.
