Chapter 45

The caravan seemed to be lost, and Shen Yuexi took the initiative to step forward, "Do you need help?"

The leader immediately nodded happily, "We were going to the city to do business. Who knew we got lost when we got here? Can you take us out, little sister?"

Shen Yuexi said: "I still have to chop wood now, so I'm afraid I can't help, but I know the direction to the city, so just keep walking along this road."

The merchants thanked Shen Yuexi repeatedly and gave her a small piece of broken silver to express their gratitude.

Shen Yuexi made a movement and then took the silver coins.

The caravan was not a big one, about ten people, but it carried a lot of things, including several large boxes.

Seeing these people walking in the direction he pointed, Shen Yuexi finally looked away and continued chopping firewood.

The caravan didn't walk long on the road indicated by Shen Yuexi, but fell into a prepared trap and all fell into a deep pit.

There was an uproar outside the light curtain, not knowing why.

At this time, a group of people slowly walked out of the trap.

The leader was a strange young man who looked mature and steady.

The brothers he brought behind him were also strong and looked particularly capable of bluffing people.

The leading young man looked condescendingly at the merchants struggling in the trap, and sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Go and collect all their belongings. Apart from the ones in the car, I'm afraid they also have a lot of money on them. Collect them all."

After the young man finished explaining his brothers, he saw Shen Yuexi following him not far away and hiding behind a tree, and waved to him.

"Little girl, thank you very much this time. Thanks to you, they will be fooled and fall into this trap. Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take to catch these cunning guys."

The unexpected turn once again left the monks outside the light curtain confused.

What's the matter with riding a horse?
They all started to change their views on Shen Yuexi, why did they make such a fuss again now.

Looking at the attitude of the young man at the head, Shen Yuexi actually collaborated with them to rob the passing caravan!

For a moment, the monks all felt that Shen Yuexi had betrayed their trust, and their faces were full of disappointment.

Shen Yubai couldn't help but shook his head slightly, secretly feeling pity. That roast chicken must have been the reward Shen Yuexi got from these people.

No matter what the reason is, it is wrong for Shen Yuexi to collaborate with these people to commit such banditry!
Only this time, Shen Yubai was complaining more about herself and the strange man.

If he hadn't been so harsh on Shen Yuexi at that time, he wouldn't have let the bad guys take advantage of the situation and lead Shen Yuexi astray.

"No, look quickly!"

"What, these businessmen are actually..."

Shen Yubai followed the monks' gazes toward the light curtain strangely——

The young man flipped his palm and a talisman appeared out of thin air.

He muttered something, and then hit the talisman at the merchant in the trap.

There was a flash of blue light, and the merchants howled, and then their true appearance was revealed. They were a group of weasels!

When Shen Yuexi witnessed all this, she was so frightened that she took a few steps back, with a look of disbelief on her face and murmured: "It's really a monster..."

The young man smiled slightly when he saw this, and then waved his hand, asking his brothers to deal with the rebellious weasels.

"Thank you very much this time, little girl. These monsters are very cunning. Several of the men I sent out before were spotted by them. Fortunately, this time with your help, they fell into the trap."

The young man walked slowly to Chen Yuexi and bent down slightly, "I was in a hurry yesterday and I didn't know your name yet. I am the director of the Monster Catching Department. You can call me Feng Ye. What about you?"

Shen Yuexi was even more shocked, covering her mouth with a look of disbelief on her face. She was lucky enough to meet such a big shot, and even received personal thanks from him for helping him.

She murmured, "No, it doesn't matter, I didn't even thank you for the roast chicken you gave me yesterday." Fengye laughed and shook his head.

Outside the light curtain, Shen Yubai's face changed drastically, and his eyes were full of shock.

When he saw the strange young man, he felt that he looked familiar, but he didn't think much about it.

Now that the other party announced his name, Shen Yubai identified the person. This young man was indeed the director of the Monster Catching Department, Feng Ye.

Looking at the whole audience, no one was not surprised.

"There was the old medicine cultivator before, and now it's Feng Ye again. The fate between Shen Yuexi and the Immortal Sect is so deep! It is said that people with a deep connection with the Immortal Sect will have great fortunes sooner or later."

Some people can't help but sigh with emotion.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"Perhaps the hardships and setbacks along the way are training for Shen Yuexi?"

For a while, no one picked up the conversation.

"Hey, Shen Yuexi just seemed to have secretly taken some of the jewelry seized by the Demon Catcher Division."

"You read that right. I saw it clearly just now. However, I don't think there is anything wrong with what Shen Yuexi did."

"Yes, Feng Ye said it herself. If it weren't for Shen Yuexi, it would have taken a lot of effort for them to capture these monsters. If you ask me, she got too little!"

Shen Yuexi took the jewelry in her hand and walked a few steps, always feeling uneasy.

Regardless of whether she took it for stealing, she felt ashamed of her behavior. In the end, she quickly caught up with Feng Ye and his group and reluctantly returned the stolen jewelry.

Shen Yuexi was ready to accept Feng Ye's scolding, but unexpectedly the other party suddenly chuckled.

Then Shen Yuexi felt a heavy weight on her hand. It turned out that Feng Ye took another jade pendant and put it in her hand, "You deserve this."

By the time she came to her senses, Fengye and his party had already gone away.

Shen Yuexi's eyes were slightly red, and her almond-shaped eyes were filled with emotion.

She knelt down and saluted in the direction Feng Ye left, "Thank you!"

It wasn't until the group of people disappeared from sight that Shen Yuexi slowly got up from the ground.

These monsters specialize in picking out precious jewelry, and those few boxes of jewelry are already priceless.

What Shen Yuexi had in his hands was just the tip of the iceberg, but it was equally valuable.

With the precious jewelry in her arms, Shen Yuexi did not stay on the mountain for long, and quickly went down the mountain and returned to the cabin.

Shen Yubai was not there, only Shen Yuerong was huddled inside not knowing what to do.

"Yue Rong, come out for a moment."

Shen Yuerong was reluctant, "What's going on?"

Shen Yuexi first asked about Shen Yubai's whereabouts. Shen Yuerong shook her head and expressed ignorance. When she woke up, Shen Yubai had already gone out for a long time.

Hearing this, Shen Yuexi was a little dissatisfied with the lazy Shen Yuerong.

She educated him: "Yue Rong, my brother has just recovered a little bit. Please try your best to help him with anything. Don't let him work too hard, otherwise his body will be worn down and there will be sequelae."

Shen Yuerong disliked her for being verbose, speaking in one ear and out the other, with a nonchalant expression, "Brother is not a child anymore. He must be aware of his own physical condition."

Knowing that she couldn't explain the truth to Shen Yuerong, Shen Yuexi didn't force it, and handed the carefully collected jewelry to Shen Yuerong, "It's not safe for me to put these things on my body. You can keep them first, and then give them to my elder brother when he comes back. Do you know?" ?”
