Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Chapter 225 World of Famous Works 14

When we arrived over Huangfengling, the sun had just risen in the east.

Even though it was already broad daylight, the entire mountain range was shrouded in a strange yellow mist, making it impossible to see clearly what was happening inside the mountains from the sky.

Liao Zhuang drove the flying car downwards, finally stopping on a small hillside at the edge of the mountain ridge.

Lin Xiaoqian and the others got out of the flying car and put it into their storage bags.

Liao Zhuang looked at the dense forest in front of him, where strange winds occasionally blew, scratched his head, and said, "This mountain is quite big. How are we going to find the Yellow Wind King's cave?"

Lin Xiaoqian raised her chin. "Let's walk forward and see if we can encounter any little monsters."

The group hadn't gone far when a series of chaotic footsteps approached, accompanied by the monster's gruff conversation.

"What's wrong with Lord Tiger these past few days? He keeps sending us to this mountain foot to look for some monk. Where would we find a monk in this desolate wilderness?" a shrill voice complained. "We should look for monks in temples."

"Hmph, say less. If Lord Tiger hears you, he'll skin you alive." Another monster with a hoarse voice hissed.

"Hey, it's just the two of us here. Hey, why do you think Tiger King is looking for a monk? Is it because monks taste better than ordinary people?"

"I don't know, but if it's something Lord Tiger takes to heart, eating it must be beneficial." The hoarse-voiced monster chuckled twice, his laughter sounding particularly eerie in the jungle.

Suddenly his laughter stopped abruptly, as if someone had grabbed his neck, followed by a muffled thud.

The shrill-voiced monster found it strange and was about to turn its head to look when it felt a chill on its neck and lost consciousness.

Lin Xiaoqian and his companions emerged from behind the tree and flipped over the two monsters that were lying motionless on the ground. One monster was fat and the other was thin, and they both had some animal features on their faces.

Liao Zhuang clicked his tongue in amazement, "Both of these monsters have pointed mouths, two big front teeth sticking out, and long, thin whiskers on either side of their mouths. They must be rat monsters. Look, they even have two rat ears on their heads."

Lin Xiaoqian said, "It's not surprising that the Yellow Wind Monster's true form is a weasel, and that he has a group of rat demons under his command. Let's tie them up first."

This time, Lin Xiaoqian used a small dose of anesthetic. Not long after she was tied up, the skinny rat demon slowly opened its eyes.

Upon seeing the unfamiliar faces before him, the skinny rat demon was startled. "Wh...who are you?"

Realizing he was tightly bound, he immediately stammered, "Why...why are you...tying me up? I...I'm telling you, I'm...the...the subordinate of King Huangfeng. Be smart, let...let me go."

Lin Xiaoqian feigned a puzzled look and asked, "Who is the Yellow Wind King?"

Upon hearing this, the skinny rat demon's eyes widened as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. "You... you don't even know King Yellow Wind? This Yellow Wind Ridge is all my king's territory! He is incredibly powerful; with a single breath of his Samadhi Divine Wind, he can make the sky darken and the sun and moon lose their light! If you release me and prepare some gold and silver treasures as an apology, perhaps my king will be in a good mood and spare your lives."

While making a fuss, the skinny rat demon secretly glanced at Lin Xiaoqian and the others' expressions.

Liao Zhuang pretended to be frightened, patting his chest and saying, "Huh? Really? Are you adults that powerful? You wouldn't eat people, would you?"

Seeing that Liao Zhuang seemed to be intimidated, the skinny rat demon puffed out its chest and became even more smug. "Hmph, eating people? That's a small matter! If my king gets angry, this Yellow Wind Ridge will tremble. A few days ago, a blind hunter accidentally wandered into the king's territory. The king just blew a breath, and the hunter was swept into the sky. When he fell, his bones and flesh were separated."

As it spoke, its facial expression became increasingly exaggerated, as if it could scare Lin Xiaoqian and the others.

Liao Zhuang looked at him coldly, "Since he's so powerful and even eats people, then we can't let you go, lest he find out we captured his men and retaliate against us."

Upon hearing this, the skinny rat demon's smug expression froze instantly. His eyes widened as he stared at Liao Zhuang in disbelief. "You... what do you want to do? I'm warning you, if you dare to harm a single hair on my head, my king will not let you off!"

It cried out and struggled desperately, trying to break free of the rope, but the rope had been reinforced by Mo Ying's spiritual power and remained unmoved.

Lin Xiaoqian stepped forward, squatted down, and looked at the skinny rat demon at eye level. He smiled and said, "Why don't you tell us something we want to hear, like where your king usually stays and what he likes to do, your workplace... and who the powerful monsters in the cave are. If you tell us all that, I might let you go."

As Lin Xiaoqian spoke, he noticed the fat rat demon's eyelids twitch. Suddenly, a thin barbecue skewer appeared in his hand. He raised his hand and aimed it directly at the fat rat demon's eyes. Just as it was about to hit the fat rat demon's eyeball, he flicked his wrist slightly and deeply stuck the skewer into the tree behind the fat rat demon's head.

The fat rat demon's eyes widened in terror, and it dared not move.

Lin Xiaoqian laughed, "Oh, you're awake. I thought you wouldn't wake up for a while. Now that you're awake, talk to him together. Each of you say one sentence, and whoever says less will have the slip of paper fall on their eyeball in the end."

The two rat demons trembled. The thinner rat demon spoke first, his voice trembling violently: "Master... my king usually lives in Yellow Wind Cave. The cave is deep in Yellow Wind Ridge. The exact location is..."

Seeing this, the fat rat demon, afraid of being left behind, quickly chimed in: "Among the powerful demons in the cave, besides the Great King, the Tiger Vanguard is Lord Tiger. He is highly skilled in martial arts, and his red copper sword moves with the force of a tiger. We lowly minions are all afraid of him..."

The two little monsters, one after the other, spilled everything they knew like beans.

He even revealed the recent incident where Tiger Vanguard asked them to go down the mountain to find a monk, fearing that if he didn't say enough, he would get his eyes stuck in a slingshot.

Seeing that they had finished talking, Lin Xiaoqian suddenly asked, "You two must be together all the time, so you should know each other very well, right? One last question, has the other ever eaten anyone?"

"I've eaten!"

"no!"

The fat rat demon looked at the skinny rat demon with disbelief.

That idiot ruined him; didn't he see that these people in front of him were human?

"Don't blame me for being heartless," he immediately corrected himself, "No, no, he ate it, he ate it too!"

The skinny rat demon immediately retorted: "What does it mean to eat people if you lick the king's remaining thigh bone twice? On the contrary, I see you often sneaking into the kitchen. The large intestines that often go missing from the kitchen must be because you've been stealing them. Look at you, all fat and round, you don't even leave a bite for your brothers."

“You’re lying. I clearly saw it that day too. There was still a lot of meat left between the thighs. After the king got tired of eating it, he threw the bones in front of you. You picked them up and hid them. When I asked you about it later, you said you didn’t have them.”

The two rat demons argued back and forth, their faces turning red with rage.

Lin Xiaoqian felt nauseous upon hearing this, so she used her spiritual power to create two slaps and killed him.

The dead monster instantly reverted to its original form: two large gray rats, each half the height of a person.
