Chapter 82 New Companion

Jiang Yuan and Da Miao ran back to the room, saying that they were going to pack up their things, but they didn’t sleep in the room last night, so where would they get the things to pack up?
After Jiang Yuan ran back to the room, she immediately went to the mirror, cleaned the petals on her head, combed her hair, washed her face with a towel, and asked Da Miao to check it again. After making sure there was no problem, she took Da Miao out.

After seeing them coming out, Rabbit Man stood up straight, and then heard Jiang Yuan say, "I'm done packing, let's go now and go directly to the front hall."

He nodded: "Okay."

The Palace Master seemed to have anticipated their arrival, and last night he had Tu Zi set up a shelf in front of the palace, not far from the teleportation array, that could block out the light and sun.

The thoughtful Tu Zi even brought a few chairs, prepared a coffee table, teacups and a simple tea stove, so that they could make tea around the stove.

When the water on the tea stove boils, Tu Zi first puts an appropriate amount of tea leaves into the cup, then picks up the teapot and pours water into the cup. In an instant, the fragrance of tea fills the air.

The palace master chuckled, her brows curved, and picked up a cup of tea, tasting it carefully.

Moon Dog picked up the teacup and drank it all. He looked at the teacup in his paw, frowned and said, "I feel that this new tea is not as delicious as Xiangshan Rao."

Tu Zi couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "Stone cherry blossom tea has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin. It was originally for female demons to drink. Why are you, a male demon, joining in the fun?"

"I'm just curious!" Moon Dog raised his paw and scratched his head, smiling a little embarrassedly.

Tu Zi snorted arrogantly and ignored him.

She turned around and saw Jiang Yuan and the others walking towards the main hall, so she quickly called them and waved, "Jiang Yuan, we are here."

When Jiang Yuan heard the voice, he immediately looked around. After finding the location of Palace Master, Tu Zi and Moon Dog, he hurriedly called Big Cat and Rabbit Man to follow.

"Good morning, Sister Palace Master, Sister Tu Zi, and Moon Dog." Jiang Yuan walked up to them and greeted them one by one with a smile.

The palace master smiled back, raised his hand to rub her head, and asked gently, "Do you know where we are going next?"

Jiang Yuan nodded and answered without hesitation: "Of course I know, it's Daotian Village."

The Palace Master said nothing, but nodded to Tu Zi. The next second, Tu Zi took out a scroll and handed it to Jiang Yuan, saying, "Daotian Village is the territory of the Ox Tribe. They are honest and hardworking. You should go and tell the tribe leader who you are and have a good discussion with them. You will definitely be able to get the second treasure to protect the tribe."

While Jiang Yuan listened carefully, he opened the scroll. The scroll not only contained a map to Daotian Village, but also marked some taboos in the village, the habits of the clan leader, etc.

Although the animal skin map given by the village chief also marked the location of Rice Field Village, it was far less clear and precise than this scroll. I don't know if it was because the map given by the village chief was very old and had not been updated for a long time.

Thinking of this, she carefully put away the scroll and answered seriously: "I have written down everything Sister Tu Zi said."

After explaining everything, Tu Zi poured a cup of tea for everyone present.

The Palace Master raised the teacup with his paws, stood up and said to Jiang Yuan, Da Miao and Rabbit Hero: "After this farewell, I don't know when we will meet again. Now the safety of the demon world depends on you. Thank you for your hard work... I will use tea instead of wine to toast you."

Seeing their Palace Master doing this, Tu Zi and Yueliang Gou also took action, but unlike the Palace Master and Tu Zi, Yueliang Gou held a teacup and walked behind Jiang Yuan, next to Rabbit Hero.

Jiang Yuan was about to ask, but saw that the Palace Master had already finished the tea in the cup. She smiled helplessly and had to accompany him.

After putting down the teacup, the Palace Master took the initiative to say: "Moon Dog has been with me for many years. Whether it is strength or living ability, he is extremely high. The journey is long and difficult. I want him to go with you... A Yuan, what do you think?"

Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment. She didn't have any objection, but she didn't know what Big Cat and Rabbit Man thought.

Thinking about it, she said, "Sister Palace Master, if Big Cat and Rabbit Man both agree, I have no objection."

She has a companion now, so she can't just think about herself, she has to consider the opinions of her other two companions!
Upon hearing this, Big Cat nodded his head to show his agreement without waiting for the Palace Master to ask any more questions. After all, whatever its Ah Yuan said was the truth, and it supported its cub unconditionally!
After hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Rabbit Hero couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, then thought for a moment and asked, "I have two questions, Palace Master, please answer them."

The palace mistress remained silent. She just felt thirsty, so she picked up the teacup and wanted to take a sip. She couldn't stop at this moment.

So Tu Zi behind her said, "Master Tu Xia, please ask."

After getting permission, Rabbit Man continued to ask, "Is it Moon Dog's own idea to go with us? Or is it your idea? Is he going with us as your attendant? Or as our companion?"

Without waiting for the Palace Master to speak, Moon Dog said in a serious tone, "I want to join your team as a companion. Don't worry, after we leave Moon Bay, I will no longer be the Palace Master's attendant."

He knew Rabbit Man's concerns.

The first problem is nothing more than being afraid that the Palace Master will force him to do something he doesn't like, which will cause him to feel resentful in the future and do things that are detrimental to the team.

As for the second question, they were afraid that even though he was thousands of miles away, he would still focus on Moon Bay and the Palace Master. Not only would he not be able to help, he would even become a burden to them. Seeing that Moon Dog was calm and composed, and his small eyes revealed a gaze that was not dodging at all, Rabbit Hero couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

"Huh?" Moon Dog didn't follow Rabbit Man's train of thought, and therefore, didn't react to what he was asking.

Seeing his reaction, Tu Zi, who was eating melons on the side, couldn't help but hold his forehead: You say he is smart, but sometimes he is stupid, but you say he is stupid, but he is knowledgeable and knows everything.

The palace master placed the teacup on the tea table and reminded: "He asked why you wanted to join them."

Rabbit Hero nodded, and he repeated what the Palace Master had said just now, saying, "Yes, the Palace Master just said that the journey is long and difficult, and we may even encounter various dangers."

After that, he paused for a few breaths, looked at Moon Dog, and asked, "Moon Bay is prosperous and bustling. I really can't understand why you would give up the comfortable life here and choose to go with us."

Moon Dog thought for a while before saying, "I want to contribute to saving the demon world. Besides, if you want to gather treasures to protect your clan, you will definitely go to the Dog Kingdom in the future..."

Dog Country is his destination!

After hearing Moon Dog's answer, Rabbit Hero said to Palace Master and Jiang Yuan, "In that case, I also agree to let him join us."

Now that the Moon Dog's purpose and identity are clear, and no one, cat or monster in the team has any objection, the matter is settled.

The Palace Master looked at Moon Dog, smiled with relief, and said, "Now that you have decided, take everything you need and get along well with your companions in the future."

She hadn't said a word yet. After hesitating for a moment, she finally decided to send a message: "In the future, you must remember to put Jiang Yuan first and protect her well. Rabbit Warrior is smart enough and has high demon power, but once he is involved in the affairs of Rabbit Village, he will easily lose his mind. You must keep an eye on him."

Moon Dog looked at the Palace Master deeply and said seriously, "I have remembered what the Palace Master said, and I have brought everything I should bring."

"Ah."

Seeing that he had given all the necessary instructions, the Palace Master looked up at the sky. It was now nearly 9 o'clock and the sun was shining on the earth, appearing extremely warm.

"It's getting late, you should leave the palace!" The Palace Master stood still and reminded softly.

"Palace Master, we'll leave first." Jiang Yuan was obviously feeling disappointed.

But she also knew what path she was taking, so after bowing to her, she turned around, her expression gradually becoming firm, her steps steady, and she walked towards the teleportation array not far ahead step by step.

Big Cat and Rabbit Warrior followed closely behind. Moon Dog first saluted the Palace Master with his paws, and was about to leave when he heard Rabbit Zi say, "Hey, Dog, wait a moment."

Moon Dog looked confused, but didn't ask any more questions.

Tu Zi quickly took out three bamboo tubes from her bag and stuffed them into his arms, saying, "These are Xiangshan Rao. If Ah Yuan likes it, remember to make some for her. Of course, you can drink a little too..."

As she spoke, she sighed. She obviously had a lot to say, but time was running out. Seeing that Jiang Yuan and the others had already walked several meters away, she hurriedly reminded them, "When you go out, be careful."

"Okay, thank you Sister Tu Zi." Yueliang Gou hugged the bamboo tube tightly in his arms, thanked with a moved look on his face, then turned around and hurriedly caught up with Jiang Yuan's team.

Looking at Moon Dog's departing back, Tu Zi looked melancholy.

The Palace Master couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why didn't I see that you two had such a good relationship before?"

Tu Zi waved her paws and said, "It's not that we have a good relationship, but I feel very tired when I think that after he leaves, I will be the only demon in charge of all the affairs in the palace!"

The Palace Master couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "You've only just started, are you as tired as I am? But..."

As she spoke, the Palace Master seemed to suddenly think of something. She sighed, held the teacup in her right paw, shook it gently, and said, "Now that the Moon Dog is gone, we have to recruit another monster that can cook delicious food."

"It's difficult!" Tu Zi sighed, then lay on the coffee table and said, "As for the cooking skills of Moon Dog, how many demon chefs in Moon Bay can compare to him? We might as well pray that they can complete their mission quickly and return soon!"

……

When they were in the Green Bamboo Forest, Jiang Yuan witnessed Mao Kui using the green cat jade to open the teleportation array. That was how they were able to successfully reach the Moon Palace.

Now that they want to leave the Moon Palace, they naturally have to use this teleportation array.

Jiang Yuan and Rabbit Man looked at the teleportation array, feeling quite helpless, so they turned their eyes to Moon Dog...
