Chapter 36: A misunderstanding

Zhang Fan jumped off the barrel and landed in the sand without making a sound.

While jumping down, one hand kept holding the lid of the barrel to prevent it from falling.

After Zhang Fan's feet hit the ground, he slowly closed the lid again.

Everything is in danger.

Zhang Fan looked back again, and the black-clothed people who were resting by the bonfire were still sitting there, and they didn't notice that he had escaped.

Fortunately, the location of this barrel is relatively remote, and one side is in the dark, coupled with Zhang Fan's flexible skills, so he successfully escaped.

Zhang Fan looked behind him again, although it was dark at night, he could roughly see that there was a small high slope behind him.

It seemed to be a good location to monitor the camp, and Zhang Fan wanted to go to the back of the slope first, and then observe them.

So he crawled on his own and walked slowly up the small slope behind, and it took him a while to reach the top of the slope.

Zhang Fan walked to the back of the slope, and then the whole person lay down, stuck to the sand, and looked at the camp below.

The view is really good, and the whole camp is in full view.

Now, just wait here and do whatever happens.

Zhang Fan waited there silently.

an hour.

Two hours.

Three hours......

I don't know how long it took, but the sky was getting brighter.

Zhang Fan is extremely sleepy at the moment, the dark circles under his eyes are about to come out, and he wants to sleep with his eyes closed.

These people can really survive.

All the men in black just sat on the ground to rest, and none of them lay down to sleep.

But after sitting all night, are you still human?!

Zhang Fan originally wanted to take advantage of them to fall asleep, and he happened to solve them one by one in the past, so that he could come to a counter-kill and rescue the students at the same time.

But they just don't sleep, they don't sleep all night!

This plan fell through, and Zhang Fan could only lie on the spot and continue to suffer.

The sky had begun to gradually brighten, and a red sun slowly rose over the horizon.

Some of the men in black stood up, and Zhang Fan was about to think that they were making some moves, but he didn't expect them to just go and extinguish those bonfires.

Zhang Fan has the heart to die, and even wants to go directly to the heart and arrest him.

It's been a long time......

"It's time. The man in black who had spoken before stood up again and spoke to all the men in black.

It seems that he should be the boss of this group.

At this moment, all the men in black stood up in unison.

At this time, Zhang Fan, who was originally extremely tired, cheered up again.

Finally ready for the next move?

"Let's do it. The Men in Black dropped this, and some of the men in black began to pick up torches from the extinguished campfire, and then lit them with flint and steel from their bodies.

Other men in black dropped bales of hay on the sides of the barrels.

"Damn, what are you going to do?!Ignite and burn!" Zhang Fan's face changed greatly.

If this fire continues, more than 1,000 students' lives will be lost.

Lin Jingcheng, they will also die.

No? They can't be left to do that anymore.

Time waits for no one, and immediately Zhang Fan got up from the ground, bent down and quickly walked around to the side.

Zhang Fan couldn't wait to rush down directly from the small slope in front of him, but in this way, he would be directly exposed to those people.

Although he was in a hurry at the moment, he hadn't lost his mind yet, Zhang Fan knew that if he rushed out directly, the final result might be that the group of people in black had one more object to be burned by them.

Fortunately, this small slope is very close to the camp, and Zhang Fan's footsteps are fast and he touches the edge of the camp.

Now Zhang Fan's target is the leader of the speech among the men in black. Zhang Fan had just remembered his figure and where he was.

And one feature that sets him apart from the rest is that he has a red rope tied to the hilt of his sword.

Zhang Fan planned to approach him slowly, and then kidnap him, forcing the men in black to release the students.

If these people still care about their boss's life, if they are all outlaws, Zhang Fan can only fight hard

So now, with the help of those tents as shelter, I approached them step by step, and there was only one account away from them.

The leader of the man in black was only a short distance away from Zhang Fan, and if Zhang Fan rushed over with all his strength, he would be able to get close in just the blink of an eye.

But there were three black-clothed people standing next to him, all of whom were not far from him, if their reactions were very agile and their movements were faster than Zhang Fan's, then the possibility of success was very small.

Even if he could get close to their leader before the three of them could stop him, unless he could hold them hostage in a single move, he would be besieged from three sides.

The situation is not optimistic.

In order to ensure that the plan was foolproof, Zhang Fan quietly released Bibo with a capsule.

"Later, you will hit those three people with electric flint, the speed should be fast, understand?" Zhang Fan pointed to the three people next to the boss of the man in black, and asked in a whisper.

Bibo didn't say anything, and nodded very obediently, indicating that he understood what his master meant.

"That's okay, I'll rush out immediately, and you can rush with you, just put your skills. ”

By this time, the hay in front of the barrels had been placed, and the men in black had raised their torches, ready to light them.

Now, it is necessary to rush out.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Fan let out a deep sigh, clenched the horns of the Devil Horn Python in his hand, and then his whole body rushed out like an arrow from the string, and Bibo also flew out quickly.

The moment he rushed out, Bibo unleashed lightning at the three people next to the leader.

"Whoosh!"

Three stones flew out in quick succession with the glow of fire, and smashed at the three of them.

"Bang bang bang!"

With three explosions, a spark lit up in front of the three people's heads, and then the three of them were knocked unconscious.

Zhang Fan's figure was close to the leader's side like a ghost, and before the other party could draw his sword, the horns of the demon horn python were against the other party's throat.

"Not good!"

Originally, those people were already preparing to light the fire, but when they heard the movement, they hurriedly turned around to look, but saw that their boss was being held hostage.

The people in black were shocked, and they didn't care about losing the fire for a while, and their other hands pulled out their knives one after another, surrounding Zhang Fan, who was holding their boss hostage.

"Let go of our boss!"

"Don't move, I'll kill him if I dare to take another step. Zhang Fan's expression was fierce.

"Who are you?" the boss asked in a deep voice.

"Students of Tianwu Academy, who are you, why did you kill us. ”

"I'm sorry, no comment. Even if he was pressed against his neck by sharp horns, the boss of the man in black didn't want to say a word.

Zhang Fan pressed the horns tighter, and as long as the other party moved again, the tip of the horn would pierce his skin.

"Order your men to wake up my classmates, or I'll kill you. ”

The boss of the man in black smiled coldly: "If you set those grasses on fire, they will wake up." ”

"Don't fart, don't you know what will happen when you go on fire? Zhang Fan said angrily.

"I count to three, and if I don't save people, I'll do it, and I will do what I say. ”

The boss of the man in black didn't react, he stood there motionless, not saying a word.

"One. ”

"Two!"

"Stop! He's right. ”

Just as Zhang Fan counted to three and then moved, a familiar voice sounded.

Then I saw those instructors and tutors who had disappeared overnight coming over, and it was Tang Nanqian who had just called Zhang Fan.

"Let him go, a misunderstanding. Tang Nanqian walked up to Zhang Fan and said.

"Misunderstanding? I've seen them gas us and now they're going to burn us all, what kind of misunderstanding is that?"

Zhang Fan was a little stunned, he still hadn't understood the situation.

"You'll know later, but burning this grass really works, so you all go and burn it. Tang Nanqian instructed those men in black to burn grass.

"Hey, wait. Zhang Fan had already let go of the boss of the man in black at this time, and wanted to run over to stop them, but was stopped by Tang Nanqian.

Torches lit the hay in front of the barrels, and the haystacks burned.

But it didn't burn a lot of flames as expected, and the grass only carried a few flickering sparks, and it didn't spread to other places.

But there was a lot of smoke coming out of the air, which spread through the air.

"Alright, let's take off our masks. Among the instructors, a middle-aged male instructor spoke, and it seemed that he was the chief instructor who took the lead among all the instructors.

All the black-clothed masked men took off their masks, and so did the boss who had just been kidnapped by Zhang Fan.

The moment they took off their masks, Zhang Fan was stunned again.

I thought that all the faces of these people were fierce and vicious, and some of them might have a few scars on them.

But I didn't expect that those people all had childish faces, and they were actually a group of teenagers who were about the same age as Zhang Fan and their students.

The boss is also a handsome guy, but the resolute and calm temperament in his eyes doesn't seem to match his age.

"Good boy, you can, slip out of our noses and suddenly give me this kind of thing, I was scared. ”

The boss walked up to Zhang Fan and patted Zhang Fan's shoulder with a smile.

"To introduce, my name is Hu Feng, and I am a member of the Burning Sky Empire's Southwest Frontier Guards' Junior Reserve Battalion. ”

"Border guards, you and the instructor know each other, but why are you ?...... that night?"

"That's the task I gave them. The chief instructor walked over.

"Actually, this is also a test for you, to test your vigilance at night, I thought you would be wiped out, but your performance is really beyond my expectations. ”

The chief instructor praised Zhang Fan with satisfaction: "It is really good to be able to sleep at night and be so alert, and not to be chaotic in case of danger." Don Jr., he's a student in that class you trained. ”

"Yes, Commander Sun. Tang Nanqian replied.

Zhang Fan asked Tang Nanqian at this time: "What is the juvenile reserve camp for?" ”

"This is a group of orphans who have lost their parents, who have been taken into the army since childhood, managed and trained according to a militarized system, and when they grow up, they will also serve the empire. ”

"My parents are gone?" After hearing this, Zhang Fan asked Tang Nanqian in a low voice: "What is the reason? The army will not go to the civilian population to recruit orphans, right?"

Hearing this, Tang Nanqian's face was a little solemn.

"In the past, wild monsters often plagued the border in the southwest of the empire, so the residents who lived on the border were often killed by monsters, and last year alone, more than 800 people died. ”

"The Empire has strengthened its forces there, and things are getting better, but now it's sparsely populated, and we're raising the children who have nothing to rely on. ”

"That's right. Zhang Fan understood, and sighed silently in his heart.

It's all a group of people with a rough fate.

At this time, the students who slept in the buckets woke up one by one under the smoke.
