Chapter 91: Chapter 91: How to Take an Angle
“Lock the chains!”
A loud shout rang out of nowhere.
“Whiz, whiz, whiz…”
Suddenly, a sound of chains rattling erupted all around.
“Moo…”
Another mournful bellow, and the white mist infused with golden light suddenly plumted.
Imdiately after, several dark shadows pounced toward the spot where the golden light had fallen.
Qi Yue’s pupils shrank.
Seeing this setup, soone had prepared in advance and had set a trap here.
She opened her palm again, letting the scent of the Spiritual Spring Water disperse, and while going unnoticed, she started to retreat.
“Moo…”
Another invigorating roar erupted, and the chains clanged wildly as the golden, white mist furiously leapt, struggling, and jumped again towards Qi Yue’s direction.
“Catch it!”
Another explosive shout, and several dark shadows simultaneously lunged at the golden cluster.
At this critical mont, Qi Yue gritted her teeth and rushed forward.
She had already covered her entire body with Spiritual Spring Water, so as soon as the White Rhino ca near her, she would pull it into the space with her.
In such conditions, no one could see each other.
First, she must get the White Rhino into the space and see, if it has a horn, take the horn; if not, then release it, killing two birds with one stone.
It really was crowded, fortunately, these people were afraid of hurting themselves and had not brought knives; otherwise, squeezing in like this, she really could have been slashed to death by reckless blades.
Within a re thirty seconds, she had already been trampled dozens of tis, and soone suddenly knocked her flying.
She had just stabilized her stance when a strange smooth sensation ca from her right hand.
It was slick like a snake, but not as chillingly cold; instead, it was warm and soft.
She instantly understood—she had touched the White Rhino.
Almost without thought, her mind shouted “retrieve,” and she was in her space.
She could finally see.
In the front yard of the clinic space, next to a small pavilion, stood a wholly white rhinoceros.
If one ignored its continuously moving head and blinking eyes, it was almost like a giant ornant carved out of white jade.
Qi Yue steadied the shock in her heart, but her gaze was captivated by the solitary horn on the rhinoceros’s head.
What kind of horn was this!
Its shape was like a bugle horn, and also like a finely crafted and elegant triangular hat.
The appearance of that horn was stunningly beautiful.
Scales that flickered with golden light spiraled around it, extending from the base of the horn all the way to the tip, adorning the horn in a spectacular and radiant display.
Qi Yue guessed, the gold light she had seen outside must have co from the scales on this horn.
It was magical!
She had not anticipated finding such a miraculous White Rhino in Longnan Ridge of the Western Regions.
She was completely dumbfounded.
No, one could say she was awe-struck.
She felt this White Rhino was not an ordinary creature, but a mystical being with divine qualities.
In an instant, she felt troubled about how to remove this horn from its head.
While she was dazed, the White Rhino began to look around.
It seed very curious about the place, and soon it went to a creek, plunged its head into the water, and started to drink desperately.
As it drank, it even lay down completely in the water, starting to play in the water by itself.
Qi Yue followed its location upstream with her gaze and tugged at the corner of her lips.
Fortunately, it didn’t co to her drinking the White Rhino’s bath water.
Seeing that it was adapting well, Qi Yue was in no rush to leave, and she opened her consciousness to start capturing the movents outside.
Hearing that the people outside were frantically searching for the White Rhino, she curled her lips and smiled comfortably.
It really was unexpected that things would go so smoothly, had she known this, she might as well have co alone!
But thinking this, she quickly dismissed the idea.
Everything is about the right timing, place, and people.
Had it not been for Zhang Fang and others coming along, perhaps she wouldn’t have encountered so many situations on the road, and might have reached the Western Regions sooner, but whether she could have found the White Rhino was another matter.
Moreover, she had gained a lot along the way, not only collecting countless supplies and foods, but also quite a bit of gold and silver, and she had dealt with the thoroughly corrupt Prefecture official in Yongzhou.
More importantly, she had t Song Gensheng.
Thinking of Song Gensheng, a tender warmth surged in Qi Yue’s heart.
Seeing that the White Rhino was playing joyously in the creek, Qi Yue took a material detector from the pharmacy.
The mont she approached the White Rhino, the detector began to scream wildly, and the display constantly jumped with neatly arranged data reports.
Qi Yue quickly returned the detector to the pharmacy.
This White Rhino is truly a treasure all over!
She wanted it!
It might as well stay in the space since it’s practically a small world here, complete with Spiritual Spring Water; it lacked nothing to eat.
Grass, fruits, wheat, beans, it could have anything it desired.
When she had so free ti, she really should study how to remove the horn and how to kill the rhino…
The detector had just shown that a drop of blood from this White Rhino could save a person on the brink of death due to excessive blood loss.
Qi Yue blissfully sat down in the swing chair in the pavilion, eating an apple and listening to the commotion outside.
“How could it have vanished? Wasn’t the golden light just flashing?”
“It must be hiding, let’s search again!”
“Master Qing, your Herb Powder that attracts this beast—do you still have it?”
“We have been in these miasmic woods for over ten days, it’s all used up!”
“So what do we do now?”
“I left so at the Baihu Lake. Have soone fetch it, and let’s try one last ti.”
“…”
Listening to them, Qi Yue was flabbergasted; these people had been searching for the White Rhino in the miasmic woods for over ten days.
It seems she was more lucky than early!
She contentedly watched the rhino playing in the water and cheerfully picked several apples from the orchard trees and placed them on the shore.
Spying the apples, the White Rhino leapt from the water onto the shore, snatched one, and started eating, making satisfied purring noises.
Qi Yue couldn’t resist approaching slowly and lightly touched its ear. Seeing it had no reaction, she gradually moved her hand towards its horn.
Getting closer, she noticed the scales shining with golden light resembled little diamonds, densely and neatly arrayed.
At the very bottom, they were layered one on top of another, piled layer upon layer, which created a snail shell-like spiral protrusion.
Instantly, Qi Yue’s fear of densely-packed clusters flared up, and she hurriedly moved her hand away, not daring to touch it again, and even stepped back a bit.
Getting the horn might be a bit difficult, she wondered if the electric saw in the tool room would work.
Qi Yue was pondering this when she heard a commotion outside.
“Arrest them, it must be them who hid the beast!”
“Challenge with the passphrase, kill anyone who is not one of us without rcy!”
“…”
It seed that Zhang Fang and the others had been discovered.
However, she wasn’t too worried. In such dense fog, as long as they were a bit agile, they could escape unhard.
The current issue was how to gather these people together and slip away quietly.
Also, the fact that she had got the White Rhino couldn’t be told to Zhang Fang, figuring out how to convince him to leave was also a problem.
His mission this ti was to obtain the rhinoceros horn, without the item, he probably wouldn’t want to leave!
