I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 562 - 409 Prince Du’s Fury!
November 16, light snow.
A high-end bus was parked on the side of a desolate mountain.
On the bus was only the driver’s figure, while the tourists, led by the tour guide, disembarked to enjoy the scenery.
This was a 10-person tour group. Among all the travel agencies in East Persia, it was the smallest and most expensive tour group.
Even the vehicle hinted at its exclusivity, as the bus was costly and had 53 seats but carried only 10 tourists.
"This is our famous attraction, ’Lion’s Roar’." A young female tour guide spoke passionately, explaining to the tourists about the massive rock on the mountain not far away.
"According to legend, there was once a warrior who deeply admired the Yue Mountain Lion. He searched the mountains and rivers, yet he could never win the favor of the Yue Mountain Lion Pride."
"Until one day, reaching this place, he saw a pride of Yue Mountain Lions again..."
Du Yu and Master Qing, clad in black coats and wearing hoods, stood quietly at the side and back of the crowd, listening to the indistinguishable stories.
Most likely false.
Since a tourist route had been established, there had to be some so-called attractions.
Question: How do you turn peculiar mountains and rocks into attractions?
Answer: Attribute a story to them.
Throughout this journey, all Du Yu saw were rugged stones and desolate forests and snow.
This large rock, which was not strangely shaped, was not special apart from being big.
Du Yu did not quite agree with it becoming an attraction.
"The warrior waited on this mountain peak with the pride day and night. Whenever there was a lion’s roar in the mountains, he would shout loudly in response."
"No one knows how many springs, summers, autumns, and winters passed, but the warrior’s sincerity and perseverance moved the leader of the Yue Mountain Lion Pride..."
Upon hearing this, Du Yu pursed his lips. What a clichéd story.
The young female guide named Enula, vibrant and beautiful, was naturally skilled at deceiving, just based on her appearance.
Enula: "The Yue Mountain Lion Pride finally reached the mountain top and sent a member of the pride to have a fair duel with the warrior as a trial."
At this point, she sighed softly: "Unfortunately, the Yue Mountain Lion is not an ordinary Demon Beast, with immense strength. The warrior eventually perished in the duel, and his remains were consumed by the pride."
Du Yu: ???
The sudden words almost twisted Du Yu’s waist in surprise.
Enula: "The warrior’s blood spilled upon this massive rock, but today it’s covered with snow.
Otherwise, everyone could see that the top of the ’Lion’s Roar’ stone is blood-red.
To commemorate the warrior’s relentless spirit, pious attitude, and brave heart, later generations named this rock ’Lion’s Roar’."
As Enula spoke, she turned to the tourists: "This legend inspires generations of Demon Tamers in East Persia and warns our people of the power, fairness, and sanctity of the Yue Mountain Lion."
As Enula switched languages to reinterpret the story, a blonde-haired woman clutched her chest, softly sighing: "What a lamentable story."
Du Yu’s English proficiency was at a high school level, but he could understand the gist.
However, regarding Enula speaking fluent Chinese, Du Yu never quite got used to it.
It seemed that in East Persia, the universal language was considered to be the Great Xia Language, perhaps because East Persia communicated most closely with Great Xia?
To be fair, only this one white female tourist in the 10-person group showed any reaction.
Enula didn’t mind because she clearly knew what kind of group she was guiding!
Even if the company didn’t remind her, she could see with the naked eye.
You must know, the profession of Demon Taming cultivates Spirit, Essence, and Qi!
In terms of aura and presence, the difference between them and ordinary people was like clouds and mud. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Without needing the tourists to show identification, Enula could tell at a glance that at least eight people in the group were Demon Tamers.
Therefore, throughout this journey, Enula’s attitude was exceedingly respectful: "Please follow me on the bus. The next stop is our country’s famous Demon Spirit Realm·Ten Thousand Beasts Tomb."
Everyone followed the guide onto the bus, and Du Yu and Master Qing returned to the seats at the back of the bus.
As the bus started, Enula picked up the microphone: "Sorry to bother everyone. On the way to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tomb, we’ll pass through a city.
Please make sure to secure your valuables, such as jewelry and accessories.
What I mean is, please hide your valuables as much as possible to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Upon hearing this, the blonde-haired woman spoke again: "Aren’t we absolutely safe? We paid a high fee for this trip..."
Enula repeatedly apologized, stepping forward to patiently explain and soothe the emotions of the white woman.
After a while, she faced everyone again: "Saint Nuoya City is controlled by the Purple Lion Corps. This tourist route was developed and protected by the Purple Lion Corps.
Please rest assured, our personal safety is guaranteed, but in other aspects..."
With that, Enula looked helpless: "My country is different from yours."
With those words, Enula didn’t need to say more.
In fact, people from other continents could understand very well.
Not to mention in this war-torn country, even in their peaceful homelands, theft and robbery were common on the streets.
After Enula’s reminder, she indicated that everyone should take a short rest, as the bus ride would be about two hours.
Yang Qingqing sat by the window, quietly gazing outside.
As the vehicle moved forward, the gloomy sky gradually cleared, and the monotonous snowy mountain forests slowly shed their icy appearance.
