Chapter 1, The Youth with Spiritual Eyes (Four)
Fifty miles ahead, you will enter the Starry Forest, where soul beasts are present. Please exercise caution.
After enjoying a good meal, Huo Yuhao's fatigue had completely recovered. He marked the location of the previous stream on the map, as it might come in handy on the way back.
Xiao Ya's beautiful eyes widened in anger as she said, "What did you call me?"
Is he really going to the Star Dou Forest?" Tang Ya said thoughtfully as she watched Huo Yuhao's departing figure
My name is Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao replied while seriously grilling fish. Throughout his journey, he had encountered travelers more than once while camping in the wild and had received considerable help from them. Therefore, when Tang Ya asked him for grilled fish, Huo Yuhao handed it to her without hesitation. These days had taught him that when venturing out, one must help each other.
The young man smiled slightly and said, "A gentleman does not take away what others cherish. Little brother, you haven't eaten yet. Did you catch these fish from the river?"
The boy who was with the girl had also come over at this moment. With a helpless expression, he first raised his hand to greet Huo Yuhao, and then said to the girl, "Xiao Ya, this little brother hasn't eaten yet, but you have already started eating."
Xiao Ya shot him a glance and said: "This is more like it; you need to be mindful of your identity." Although she was still young, that glance was full of charm, leaving the young man momentarily stunned. Beside him, Huo Yuhao dared not look any longer and handed the other grilled fish to the young man, saying: "Big brother, please have some too."
Not long after setting off, a wooden sign by the roadside caught Huo Yuhao's attention
Uh... there will be in the future. Tang Ya sat up somewhat awkwardly and glared at Bei Bei, seemingly quite displeased with his undermining.
Huo Yuhao shook his head, took off the clothes that had mostly dried on the branch, and stored them in his pack. He smiled and waved goodbye to the two, turning to leave under Tang Ya's somewhat surprised gaze
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "It's nothing, I can roast more." While speaking, he stood up and handed the grilled fish to the young man, and with practiced movements, placed the other two prepared fish on the wooden rack to continue roasting.
Tang Ya looked at Bei Bei with some curiosity and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite cunning."
Beibei said with displeasure: "You wouldn't want to learn from them just because their grilled fish is delicious, would you?"
It is so delicious. I have never had such good grilled fish before from https://m.hetushucom.com. Huo Yuhao, little brother, how about I hire you as a chef? Is that okay? Tang Ya directly lay down on the grass, stretching lazily, her curves fully exposed without her noticing at all. Bei Bei looked at her and scratched his head, feeling utterly helpless.
When the second round of grilled fish prepared by Huo Yuhao was ready, Tang Ya was already eagerly waiting there. Under Bei Bei's helpless gaze, she still snatched a piece.
The girl in front, leaping forward with a skip of three steps into two, ran up to Huo Yuhao, her face full of longing as she said: "Little brother, are you selling this grilled fish? It smells so good! How did you make it?"
Although Huo Yuhao is young, he is quite perceptive. He can tell that Tang Ya and Bei Bei are not ordinary individuals, as Bei Bei mentioned, they are in a remote wilderness, yet they carry no burdens at all. Therefore, he ultimately believes it would be better to part ways with these two older siblings as soon as possible
Tang Ya's face lit up with joy as she said, "So, does this mean you agree?"
Beibei smiled wryly and said: "The great leader of the Tang Sect, Miss Tang Ya, before you took me as your disciple, you were the only one left standing in the Tang Sect. Your ambition is to expand the Tang Sect, and of course, suitable talents must be recruited. This Brother Huo seems quite composed; if his talent is decent, he could be a choice. From his attire, it can be inferred that his family background is likely not very good. Currently, the Tang Sect can only recruit disciples like him."
Do you have money, Teacher Xiaoya? Beibei said, splashing cold water.
The beautiful girl, Huo Yuhao, was not unfamiliar to him; he had seen many beautiful maids in the duke's mansion. However, he had never been so close to one before, and none of the women in the duke's residence could compare to the girl before him. This girl was not flawlessly perfect, but she possessed a unique and refined charm.
The young boy immediately raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "Alright, Teacher Xiaoya, is that enough?"
Huo Yuhao naturally did not know about the conversation between Beibei and Tang Ya after he left. He had originally planned to take some grilled fish on the road, but that did not come to fruition. He did not want to reveal his identity as a soul master, which is why he refrained from catching fish again. His mother had taught him to only share a third of his thoughts with others and not to lay bare his heart completely. Although he had a very good impression of Beibei and Tang Ya, he still chose to part ways with them after the meal
Huo Yuhao's small face turned a bit red as he said: "I, I will treat you all to a meal"
Beibei said: "This young man, Huo, must have had some experiences at m.hetushucomcom, as his gaze reveals a maturity far beyond that of his peers. I just wonder how his talent is."
Indeed, he had not taken a wrong turn; he was finally about to reach his destination. At this moment, Huo Yuhao, aside from feeling excited, also harbored a hint of nervousness. He touched the White Tiger Dagger at his lower back, suppressing the unease within him, and walked forward with determined steps
Beibei said: "Huo Xiaodi, this is a desolate wilderness, and it's not far from the Star Dou Forest where soul beasts appear. Where are you planning to go?"
The young man smiled gently and said, "My name is Beibei, and she is Tangya. Little brother, what is your name?"
Becoming a Soul Master is the only way out; this is the conviction in Huo Yuhao's heart, and he will never regret his decision
Huo Yuhao stood up and said, "Brother Bei, Sister Tang, I have to leave first"
Tang Ya was caught off guard by her secret thoughts, her pretty face flushed, and she stuck out her tongue at Bei Bei
However, this time Beibei was unwilling to eat any longer and signaled for Huo Yuhao to eat first. Huo Yuhao was already hungry as well, so he continued to grill the fish while eating one himself
Tang Ya stood up, chuckled, and said: "This time you are indeed clever, as you think the same as I do. I will clean up a bit and then we shall leave"
Beibei shook her head and said, "It's hard to say. I can vaguely sense that he possesses soul power, but it is quite weak. However, he also appears to be alone. It is indeed somewhat strange."
Beibei sat down beside Tangya, and his movements while eating grilled fish were much more elegant than Tangya's, as he at least did not end up with greasy hands
The young girl chuckled and said, "Little brother, you are still shy. Then I won't hold back." As she spoke, she reached out to take the grilled fish that Huo Yuhao had handed her, sitting beside him in a rather unrefined manner, exclaiming "Hot!" while carefully eating.
Although the only seasonings used were simple perilla and salt, the flavor of the grilled fish was exceptionally delicious. Although the several fish were not large in size, the total amount was considerable, yet all of it was consumed by the three individuals.
Beibei stood up, brushed off his clothes, and said: "This is called cleverness, or if you prefer, I can accept the term wisdom. Let’s go; having consumed so much grilled fish from him, regardless of whether we absorb him into the Tang Sect, we must at least protect him for a while to prevent him from encountering danger from soul beasts."
Tang Ya stuck out her tongue and said, "You have soul power, why not join our Tang Sect?"
The air gradually becomes cooler, and beyond the coolness, there seems to be a special heaviness. The Starry Forest resembles a soul beast with its mouth wide open, awaiting the arrival of a young life. ... Opportunity or ! ... , devour !
