Chapter 282 The Sufferings of the World on the Road Back Home
Tao Yanyan was speechless. What was going on?
And what does the fog array on the sea mean? It's totally unheard of!
"You guys really do things that are surprising." Tao Yanyan felt that this group of people were too unreliable. Since he couldn't convince them to set off later, he could only take things one step at a time.
"Let me put it this way. I don't like to owe anyone anything. Dali was bought by you to be my maid. I don't want to take her to some island, lest she never come back. I want to keep her here. You give her some silver and set her free." Tao Yanyan proposed to leave Dali on land, hoping to leave some clues for He Linzhang and the others.
The guardian wanted to go in and report, but Tao Yanyan said, "It's just a small matter, are you going to bother my elder brother? You are his guardian, you have to make decisions on some things and share his burden. You guys don't share, and all the big and small things are placed on him alone. It's strange that his illness can be cured!"
After provoking him, Tao Yanyan patted the protector's arm and said, "Since he brought you out to do the job, it means he values your ability. As for this small matter of leaving a maid behind, you can make the decision yourself." After saying that, he gave him an encouraging look.
The Dharma Protector thought so too. He was a Dharma Protector after all. Besides, he was the one who bought Dali. It should be okay to let her go free and make her own decision.
He nodded and took out twenty taels of silver and handed it to Tao Yanyan on the spot: "I still need to take care of the master here, so please give the silver to Dali and set her free. This silver is enough for her to live here for a year or so."
Tao Yanyan took it and praised him, "Even the devil has his own way. You are such a good person. Thank you, Brother Protector."
The guardian, whose tail was almost lifted up to the sky by Tao Yanyan's praise, had red ears and watched Tao Yanyan leave with a silly smile.
Tao Yanyan didn't waste a moment, handed the silver to Dali, and stuffed half of the jewelry that the Demon Lord had bought for him into Dali's pocket, urging him, "I won't leave you any letter, lest they search me. I'll say a few words, and if you see those people who came to save me in the future, tell them."
Dali nodded seriously: "Don't worry, Miss, I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay here and wait for someone to rescue you."
Tao Yanyan held her chubby hand and said, "Tell them that the people from the Demon Cult have to go through a fog array to go back. I don't know when the fog array will appear on the sea and how to get through it. Just say that the fog array is the only way to the Demon Cult's lair, and they should understand."
Dali nodded: "Yes, I remember, the fog array is a passage."
Tao Yanyan added: "If you still can't find the fog array... tell them not to risk going out to sea to look for me... I..."
Her heart suddenly felt a little sad. Thinking of every little thing between her and He Linzhang, she still felt reluctant to let go.
And there is Xiao Jinan, that poor child. Without me, he has to rely on himself to walk the future.
Qingfeng, Mingyue and others in Changle Palace... as well as the empress dowager who has always taken care of me, the Tao couple who raised the original owner, and Gu Yi who is away on the battlefield... Alas, I can't take care of everyone, so I can only leave with reluctance.
After adjusting his mood, Tao Yanyan said firmly: "If they can't find it, let them stop looking. I don't want to see so many people taking risks at sea."
The sea is an awe-inspiring existence that can swallow everything with just a slight shake. She didn't want He Linzhang's men to take risks to find her.
After saying that, as if she thought of something, she took out the gold medal that He Linzhang had given her from her arms. Seeing the word "Zhang" on it, she looked at it for a long time but still didn't give it to Dali.
I might never come back now, so I'll just leave with this only thing related to him.
The ship arrived in the afternoon. The Demon Lord looked at the sky with an indescribable sadness in his eyes.
When the next day dawned, the Demon Lord gave an order and everyone boarded a large ship in an orderly manner.
The moment Tao Yanyan got on the boat, he couldn't help but look back for a long time.
Dali left overnight last night. She found a place to stay temporarily. At this time, she secretly hid in a corner, watching the people of the Demon Cult escorting the young lady to board the ship, and her tears could not stop flowing.
She was huge and could not hide for long. When the ship left the shore, she remembered the boarding point and returned to the city to wait.
Tao Yanyan was on the boat, looking at the endless sea. At first, he could still use the stars to tell the direction, but later he could not find any reference at all. He was like a small ant floating in the vast sea, drifting with the boat on the sea.
Fortunately, she was not seasick, and apart from having a loss of appetite, she did not suffer any major consequences.
After the sun rose and set five times, Tao Yanyan woke up on the sixth day and found that everyone on the ship was on high alert.
Seeing everyone's nervous expressions, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Just then, someone from the Demon Lord came to call her over, so she packed up and went to meet that person.
The Demon Lord lay on the couch and said leisurely, "We will enter the island tonight. You should stay by my side at night. If anything unexpected happens, I can save you in time."
Tao Yanyan was stunned: "What? Something unexpected will happen when you return to your own home?" What kind of suffering is this on the way home?
The Demon Lord did not comment. After giving the instructions, he let her go back and rest and come back at night.
Tao Yanyan went to the deck with a heavy heart. As far as she could see, there was only a vast ocean without even a flying bird. In this environment, she felt completely insecure. She held onto the railing, looking at the unfathomable waters beneath her feet, and fell into endless despair.
At night, Tao Yanyan was called to the cabin. At this time, most of the members of the Demon Cult were there, and the guardians were guarding the Demon Lord. Everyone was looking at the calm sea.
The sea at night is like a giant beast with its bloody mouth wide open, as if it can swallow people at any time.
When people stand in front of the sea, they can't help but surrender to it.
"My lord, look, it's foggy." After waiting for a long time, I heard someone report excitedly.
The Demon Lord looked towards that place and said happily, "Sail towards that place."
Tao Yanyan looked at the fog that suddenly rose from the sea and felt indescribable panic.
She didn't know why the fog existed, but it was not safe at all to sail the boat into the fog.
She moved to the side of the Demon Lord and said anxiously, "You just rush into this fog, what if you can't get out?"
Tao Yanyan, who had never experienced this, was really worried.
The Demon Lord comforted him, "This is the method left by our ancestors. The Demon Cult is on an island in the sea. If you don't follow the fog, you won't be able to find the entrance. Don't worry, as long as you walk through the fog until morning, you can reach the island."
