Chapter 66: Pitiful Little Wretch

After catching the black furball, Yun Qin asked Hu Luo thoughtfully, “Do you know the furry little ghosts that live in this forest?”

“Furry? I’ve seen them before. Everyone calls them ‘pitiful little wretches.”

“Everyone? Little wretches?”

There was too much information in Hu Luo’s words. Yun Qin did not know which one to ask first.

“Yes, the trees next to me are also tree spirits. Many of them are older than me.”

Yun Qin looked to the side. The trees not far away did not make a sound. As if there was a wind blowing, their leaves were rustling. Perhaps they were greeting her.

“They don’t know how to speak, but they know a lot of things,” the tree spirit explained. Then it said, “Are you friends with this little wretch? It’s actually willing to follow you.”

Yun Qin stroked the little black furball. At this moment, it was a little depressed and lowered its head.

“Yeah? What’s wrong?”

“Oh, it’s just that these little wretches are very timid. The last time I spoke to them, they immediately ran away. It’s amazing that you can meet one so bold.”

“No, this little black furball isn’t from here, but I want to bring it to its clansmen, that is…”

Yun Qin didn’t know how to describe it. She rubbed her temples in frustration. “But the two green furballs that were leading the way disappeared.”

“You should go back. I’m guessing they won’t come out to see you,” the tree spirit said regretfully.

“Why? Those two little furballs were very cute. They were not afraid of me.”

“Nothing is that simple in this forest.”

From Hu Luo’s perspective, hidden ghosts were called ‘little wretches’ because of what happened to them in this forest from time to time.

Black Bear Ridge as a whole was a natural evil-energy-gathering formation array. In fact, not only did evil energy gather here, but other spiritual energies were also attracted to here.

What followed were more ghosts, spirits, and even humans with certain levels of Taoist cultivation.

Indeed, every once in a while, there would be a mysterious force in Black Bear mountain that would suck away the surrounding ghosts. However, as long as one grasped pattern, the ones that would be sucked away were only the ghosts with low intelligence.

However, the exquisiteness of Black Bear Ridge was not the thick aura here.

From a long time ago, the hidden ghost clan had always been attacked by other ghosts nearby.

The ghosts here were bloodthirsty. Without the vitality of humans to eat, they would kill each other.

Hidden ghosts, who didn’t have any offensive ability, became the first target of these ghosts.

In Black Bear Ridge, hidden ghosts had countless natural enemies.

Seeing the hidden ghosts fleeing in all directions with countless deaths and injuries, even the tree spirits felt sympathetic. This group of furry little wretches was undoubtedly at the bottom of the food chain in Black Bear Ridge.

However, they relied on the climate here because there were no more suitable places nearby. In the end, they managed to survive.

Presently, the hidden ghosts clan finally developed a complete tribe structure. They were no longer massacred by other ghosts and had a stable social structure.

Their past experiences also made them more cautious and suspicious. They refused to come into contact with any strange creatures and even hid the entire forest altogether.

“So, the two little wretches that you said were leading the way probably ran away. They won’t let you find them.”

After the tree spirit told the story of the hidden ghosts, it looked at Yun Qin and said regretfully.

“But…”

Yun Qin looked at the black furball that was about to cry and didn’t know what to do.

This feeling of being abandoned by its family when it already walked to the door must be hard to swallow.

“There must be a way. I don’t have any ill intentions. I won’t hurt them.”

Yun Qin frowned and made up her mind. She must send the little black furball home.

Moreover, only the hidden ghost clan knew the secret of the blue bead.

The tree spirit shook its branches and said helplessly, “I don’t have any ideas.”

Seeing Yun Qin also lower her head, the tree spirit added, “I know a place where they often stay. Go and try your luck.”

Following the tree spirit’s instructions, Yun Qin set off on the road again.

“Hey! If you succeed, remember to come back and look for me. You have to help me with something.”

The tree spirit waved its branches and said to her.

Yun Qin turned her head and replied loudly, “Of course!”

Along the way, whenever Yun Qin lost her direction, the trees around her would sway their branches to point out the direction for her.

With the tree spirits guiding the way, Yun Qin traveled far away from the footprint that was surrounded by a black bear’s scent. She felt much more at ease.

When she came to a small waterfall, Yun Qin stopped and sat down on a big rock in front of the waterfall.
