Chapter 444: Chapter 57 The Wind Soughs Eerily_1

Qin Shou was speechless...

He didn’t fully believe what the twelve ghosts said, but he did believe that Yao Sanqian was setting a trap. Because the twelve ghosts were right about one thing, with their strength, there’s no way they wouldn’t be able to catch a little female immortal. This must be a trap! A big trap!

Since it was a big pitfall, Qin Shou naturally couldn’t rush in recklessly; he needed to find a backer before proceeding. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a rescue mission; it would be like walking into his own funeral.

Qin Shou, persistent, approached Huanglong Daoist and said, "Old Huang, we’ve been together for so long, eating and sleeping side by side. Even if there’s no love, there’s got to be some affection, right? If I go this time, there’s an eighty percent chance I won’t come back. Won’t you help me out?"

Huanglong Daoist rolled his eyes and said, "You damn rabbit, it’d be better if you died. Help you? No way!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou instantly got angry. If playing nice didn’t work, he would have to play tough. Pointing at Huanglong Daoist, he shouted, "So that’s how it is, Old Huang! You don’t care about our feelings at all, do you?!"

Huanglong Daoist nodded without hesitation, his face full of disdain.

Qin Shou was completely at a loss.

Fight? He definitely couldn’t win.

Not fight? This guy definitely wouldn’t go...

Qin Shou, in his urgency, paced in circles on the spot. He was well aware that the pit Yao Sanqian had dug wasn’t meant just for him. Once someone of sufficient importance or enough people fell into that trap, Yao Sanqian would immediately close it up!

His life in the Heavenly Court had taught him that although there were bastards there, on the whole, the relationships were quite good.

If the news reached the ears of other Heavenly Gods, they would definitely rush to the rescue, and the consequences...

Time waits for no one. The more Qin Shou thought about it, the more anxious he became, glancing over at Huanglong Daoist now and then.

However, Huanglong Daoist was leisurely flying toward Deer Hunting Plain on his auspicious cloud.

In the end, Qin Shou gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you’re tough, aren’t you? Not going, right? Fine, Gungun, off we go. We won’t play with him anymore!"

With a wave of his hand, Gungun, who had been squatting in the basket with a stupefied expression, suddenly rolled out of the basket and scurried over to the rabbit’s side. After nudging the rabbit, Gungun stuffed a bamboo leaf into its mouth and started crunching away.

Seeing this, Huanglong Daoist finally reacted, grumpily saying, "Rabbit, are you really going to take Gungun away?"

Qin Shou responded as if it were a matter of course, "He recognizes me as his master. Why can’t I take him with me? Without Gungun, do you still plan on finding Chiyou? You might as well try sniffing him out with your own nose!"

Huanglong Daoist frowned and said, "You dare?"

Before Qin Shou could respond, Gungun ran over and hugged Huanglong Daoist’s leg, looking up with big, black eyes that portrayed nothing but pitifulness. Gungun emitted a string of curious noises, as if trying to communicate something.

Although Huanglong Daoist didn’t understand Gungun’s language, with his level of power, he didn’t need to understand the language to get the message; a simple mind connection would do, and he immediately understood what Gungun was trying to say.

Gungun was pleading, "Please, Old Huang, help the rabbit."

Huanglong Daoist shook his head and said, "I’ve heard of that Yao Sanqian. He’s no good, and he’s covered in messy karmic debt, too much murky water; I don’t want to get involved. Now that Heavenly Court is closed, the Earthly Immortal Realm is in chaos, and no one has noticed me, it’s the perfect opportunity to search for and release Chiyou.

Once I get involved, I will definitely catch the attention of those old friends of mine, and then freeing Chiyou later will be troublesome."

Qin Shou hurriedly said, "If you’re willing to help me, I’ll take Gungun and help you find Chiyou! If Gungun really wants to help you, he’ll certainly find him faster than you’re searching now."

However, Huanglong Daoist flatly refused, "I won’t go."

Gungun grew anxious, with constant barking and meowing as well as a mixed bag of sounds, seemingly trying desperately to use various voices to express his intentions.

Huanglong Daoist still firmly said, "Impossible, I won’t intervene in this matter. Rabbit, I advise you not to go either, or if you die there, then you’ll truly have nothing left. Not going, but staying alive, at least you’ll still be able to take revenge later."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou instantly got angry and yelled, "Revenge my ass! What’s the use of revenge? Is hatred what I want? I want my damn friends back, alive and well! If my friend is dead, what’s the point of killing the whole world? If you won’t help me, fine, I’ll go on my own! I don’t believe it, I broke out of the Heavenly Court back then, and a mere Yao Sanqian won’t be able to take my life!"

After speaking, Qin Shou turned around and left.

Seeing this, Gungun also grew desperate and quickly looked at Huanglong Daoist, shaking his thigh fervently, but Huanglong Daoist still coldly refused, "I won’t go."

As the Rabbit walked further away, Gungun could no longer hold back and took off running to chase after him.

Huanglong Daoist frowned and stretched out his hand to stop him but ultimately did not use any magic, letting Gungun leave.

"Affinities arise and cease; fortune has not yet arrived," Huanglong Daoist sighed, getting ready to leave.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "Wait!"

Huanglong Daoist turned around only to see the Rabbit riding back on Gungun.

With a hint of mockery, Huanglong Daoist asked, "What, you’re not going? Scared to death?"

Qin Shou huffed twice and said, "Scared my ass! Aren’t you looking for Chiyou? I’ll let Gungun follow you, but remember, don’t treat him badly, or sooner or later, I’ll come after you to settle the score. Also, he likes bamboo in the morning, but he prefers meat at noon and in the evening, and find him some good bamboo as snacks when he’s idle."

Having said that, the Rabbit hopped off Gungun, lifted him up and then set him down again.

Huanglong Daoist furrowed his brow and asked, "What are you doing?"

Qin Shou replied, "Weighing him; if I come back and Gungun is lighter than he is now, I guarantee you won’t have a single intact piece of clothing."

Huanglong Daoist was speechless, probably for the first time in his long life being so threatened. But looking at the Rabbit’s gleaming teeth, he knew this might not be a joke.

After finishing speaking, Qin Shou hugged a perplexed Gungun and rubbed his big head, whispering, "From now on, follow this Taoist; he will take good care of you. If Chiyou is really released, then you should leave, find a place with few people, and live quietly.

The world is too chaotic, and following them is more dangerous.

If I come back, I will come looking for you."

Qin Shou’s words were filled with reluctance and even some fear for the future, but his determination was unwavering. At this, Qin Shou got up abruptly and, against the wind, turned and left. This time he didn’t look back, letting the wind tousle his hair, moving further and further away.

Seeing this, Huanglong Daoist called out loudly, "Rabbit, you talk about coming back to do this and that. But what if you never return?"

Qin Shou laughed heartily and said, "How’s that possible? I am the handsomest Rabbit under Heaven and above Earth, even god wouldn’t be willing to take me, right? Haha..."
