The disciples of the outer sect of the White Dragon Pavilion can apply to go back to their hometown after the big competition in the outer gate, which is a great gift for the disciples who have been in the White Dragon Pavilion for a few years, and it is naturally extremely glorious to be able to return to their hometown to show off. Although Lin Fan is not a person from this world, from the memory of the owner of his body, Lin Fan still wants to see his "folks".

After saying hello to the drunken Wu Tian, Lin Fan turned around and rushed towards Xianju Peak in a hurry. All his belongings have been put into the Qiankun bag, and he doesn't need to pack anything when he goes home this time.

At the same time, Wu Tian instructed Lin Fan before leaving, "According to the practice of the White Dragon Pavilion, after the end of the outer disciples' martial arts conference, everyone will have half a month of family leave, and you will come back to follow me to practice after half a month." If you don't return within the time limit, you will bear the consequences!"

As soon as he thought that half a month later, Lin Fan would have to follow Wu Tian for body refining and cultivation, and he would have to hide such a variety of ninjutsu that he had learned. At the same time, he was born with a five-element body, and his cultivation was slow, and in his cultivation, Lin Fan naturally discovered that after breaking through to the fifth layer of qi refining, the speed at which his body absorbed the spiritual power of heaven and earth was obviously much slower, could it be that refining his body was the right path for his own cultivation? No, Lin Fan secretly made up his mind that he wanted both body refining and qi refining!

............

After getting off the Immortal Residence Peak, Lin Fan strode towards the gate of the White Dragon Pavilion, and met many disciples in the pavilion who took the initiative to greet him along the way.

The news of his victory in the battle with Wei Yu spread far and wide, and in one fell swoop established Lin Fan's status among the outer disciples, and when most of the outer disciples saw him, their attitude obviously became respectful, even with a hint of flattery.

Of course, there were also some arrogant people who didn't bother Lin Fan, and there were also some outer disciples who belonged to the He Xing camp who were hostile to Lin Fan, and their eyes were full of hostility when they looked at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was in a good mood, and regardless of the attitude of those disciples towards him, his steps became faster and faster, and in the end, he almost rushed forward.

When I arrived at the mountain gate, I saw two figures standing under the tree on the side, who were not Wen Bai and Wen Zhu?

"Lin Fan!"

Seeing Lin Fan, the two of them were overjoyed and greeted him together.

When the three of them separated last night, they agreed to meet outside the mountain gate today, and then go home together to visit relatives.

"You guys came out so early, are you homesick?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.

"I haven't been home for nearly a year, I must have thought about it!" Wen Bai said, suddenly remembered something, grabbed Lin Fan's shoulders with both hands and shook it a few times, and said loudly: "Lin Fan, this time I will meet my hometown, the villagers must be very happy." ”

In my memory, although Lin Fan was an orphan, he was fortunately taken in by the Wen family, so that Lin Fan was not starved to death when he was a child, and because of this, Lin Fan also got acquainted with Wen Bai and Wen Zhu, and most of the Wen family treated Lin Fan very well, which made Lin Fan, who had to mix in another world, feel warm.

"Let's go!"

The three of them turned around, strode side by side, and walked towards Bailong County outside the mountain, preparing to rent a carriage in the county seat and go home.

The hometown of the three of them, in Shuangta Town, Bailong County, 800 miles away, would take at least three or five days to arrive if they only relied on their feet, but if they took a carriage, it would only take two days to travel day and night.

Although the cost of renting a carriage is not expensive, Lin Fan obtained a total of 1,000 spirit coins in exchange for obtaining the beast core at the outer disciples' martial arts conference and hunting demonic beasts, and made a small fortune, so it is still very generous to rent a carriage.

Bailong County, only forty or fifty miles away from Bailong Pavilion, the three of them are flying, only half an hour after leaving the mountain gate, they have entered the city. After eating something to fill their stomachs at a breakfast shop in the city, the three of them went to the carriage shop and picked out a carriage with a wide and comfortable carriage to rent.

The driver of the car was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a straw hat, with a burly figure and dark skin, who often looked out in the wind and sun. The middle-aged man was very familiar with every town market within a radius of thousands of miles, and as soon as Lin Fan said that he was going to Shuangta Town, the horse whip in his hand was raised, and he drove the carriage and galloped towards Shuangta Town.

The car was rolling around, and by dusk, it had traveled more than 200 miles.

"There is a maple forest not far ahead, it is said that there are occasional bandits there, robbing the money of guests, I don't know if we will meet ......" Wen Zhu opened the curtain of the carriage, looked ahead, and whispered, but there was no worry or fear on his face.

"Haha, it's best to meet a few blind bandits to rob us!" Wen Bai rubbed his palms excitedly, with a look of anticipation on his face, and said: "The thieves have some money on them, and when the time comes, we will rob them all, and maybe we can make a small fortune!"

When Lin Fan saw that the two brothers and sisters were talking about the bandits, instead of the slightest fear, their eyes lit up, and they were extremely excited, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help twitching, and they said with a smile: "You two are even more like bandits than bandits! ”

The bandits in this world are usually a group of rabble, only robbing some ordinary people, and there are very few martial artists, even those bandit gangs with thousands of people, their leaders are just some third- or fourth-level martial artists who refine qi, and when they meet Lin Fan and the three of them, they can only flee from the wind.

When the three of them were renting the carriage before, the coachman knew that they were the disciples of the White Dragon Pavilion, and they were not afraid of the bandits, so they dared to pass through the maple forest, otherwise they would definitely bypass it far away, so as not to be robbed by the bandits, and if they were unlucky, they might even lose their lives.

...

In the midst of laughter, the carriage drove into the maple forest.

The maple forest, which stretches for nearly a thousand miles, is composed of thousands of maple trees that are as thick as a waist, and even the surrounding majestic mountains are covered by the maple forest. Whenever the sun sets, the sun shines on the maple forest, and as far as the eye can see, it is like a sea of blood. At the same time, there are often murders and bloody cases in this maple forest, so it is also named "blood maple forest".

Although the maple forest is notorious, but this passage in the maple forest is the only way to go from south to north, if you want to be safe, you must make a detour to thousands of miles away, which is unbearable for many people, so you have to pass by here.

Ordinary people just pay it back, thinking that they have a cheap life, and they don't have much money on them, so they are not afraid of being robbed, but those rich merchants can't do it, and for the sake of property and their lives, they can only spend money to hire warriors to protect them.

At the same time that Lin Mortal's carriage entered the Blood Maple Forest, several other teams followed, including ordinary people passing by, merchants transporting goods, and a team of seven or eight warriors.

That team of martial artists, there were men and women, old and young, and most of them cultivated between the second and third layers of qi refining, and each of them rode a tall horse, carrying swords and swords, and there were two archers among them. They had the smell of blood on their bodies, and their eyes were full of spirit and intimidating between their glances.

"Based on experience, this should be a small beast hunting group that specializes in hunting and killing demonic beasts. Wen Bai glanced at the martial arts team a few times and whispered.

For the martial artists on the continent, the Warcraft is a treasure. Its meat is delicious, far better than the taste of ordinary poultry and beasts, and it is often eaten, and it has unexpected benefits for enhancing the physique of the warrior and improving the strength of the warrior......

There are countless warriors on the continent who make a living by hunting and killing monsters, but the monsters are fierce, and it is not easy to hunt and kill, and there are countless warriors who die in the mouth of monsters every year. Despite this, the high returns still attract a large number of warriors to join.

"Hunting a low-level demonic beast, even if it is the weakest low-level demonic beast of the first order, it can sell thousands of spirit coins, no wonder so many martial artists enter the deep mountains and old forests to hunt spirit beasts. Wen Zhu sighed and said: "Let's take our family as an example, in order to make the clansmen live better, every half a year, the warriors in the clan will form a team to enter the Jiulong Mountain Range to hunt demonic beasts, and there are often clansmen killed and injured because of this, but for the sake of the entire family, no one complained, and they still went forward one after another......

The Wen family, where the three Wen brothers and sisters are located, has a population of thousands and is considered a big family in the town, and it usually only relies on small businesses such as planting medicine gardens and selling elixirs to feed so many people, which is really a bit stretched, so the family has to organize more than a dozen warriors in the clan every year to go into the mountains to hunt demonic beasts to subsidize the clan.

The martial artists of the Wen family were originally the children of the Wen family of some major sects in the vicinity, and after they reached a certain age, they could not continue to make progress in the martial arts, so they would choose to withdraw from the sect gang they belonged to, return to the family, and dedicate their spare heat to the family.

The warrior team of the Wen family went into the mountains to hunt spirit beasts, and if they were lucky, they would be able to hunt a few low-priced demon beasts, and if they were unlucky, they would not only return empty-handed, but they might also be killed or injured by their clansmen, which happened almost every year.

"If I can't move forward on the path of martial arts in the future, I will also return to the clan and work with those warriors in the clan to fight for a better life for the clansmen!" Wen Bai said waving his fist.

Wen Zhu patted Wen Bai on the shoulder and said, "Brother, I am optimistic about you, your future will be bright! When one day you become a powerhouse in the Condensing Realm or the True Spirit Realm, and even enter a higher realm, at that time, our Wen family, do you still have to worry about life?"

Wen Bai's eyes lit up and said, "That's what I said! Okay, in the future, I will add monks to cultivate hard and work hard to create a better future for everyone in the family!"

After entering the depths of the Blood Maple Forest, the mountain road became more and more uneven, and the speed of the carriage had to be reduced, and the coachman in front of him cursed and constantly complained about the mountain road.

The team of warriors who followed Lin Fan's three-person carriage looked vigilantly into the maple forests on both sides of the mountain road, some even had swords in their hands, and they were on high alert, as if there would be bandits rushing out from both sides at any time.

Wen Bai chuckled and said, "Look at them nervous! There are seven or eight of them, and they are all not weak warriors, even if there are bandits, they are too scared to come out!"

At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly felt more than a dozen spiritual power fluctuations, these spiritual power fluctuations came from the depths of the maple forest, obviously there were martial artists ambushed in it, he frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Someone is in ambush, you should be careful!"

Wen Bai poked his head out, looked to the side, and said with a smile: "Where is there anyone!Lin Fan, are you scaring yourself......

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a "whoosh" sound, and a sharp arrow burst through the air and shot towards his head.

The speed of the arrow was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was too late for Wen Bai to retract his head, and he couldn't help but be frightened.

Lin Fan was about to make a move, when he suddenly saw a flash of black mang, and then he heard the sound of "dang" metal hitting ringing in his ears, and when Dingqing looked at it, the sharp arrow that came from the back was knocked to the ground by another sharp arrow shot from behind.

The person who saved Wen Bai was an archer in the team of warriors in the rear. The archer is a woman, two years old, and she is also a martial artist at the fourth level of qi refining, between her eyebrows, there is a vigorous and heroic spirit, although her appearance is not as good as Wenzhu, but she can be regarded as a beauty.

"Thank you!" Lin Fan stretched out his hand to pull the stunned Wen Bai back into the carriage, and then bowed his hand to the female archer to express his gratitude.

The female archer nodded, smiled slightly, and then looked warily towards the maple forest on the left. The arrow that shot at Wen Bai's head just now came from that direction.

A rapid gong sounded on both sides of the mountain road, and with the sound of gongs, hundreds of bandits armed with swords, guns, swords, and axes shouted "Wow Wow", rushed out of the maple forest, and surrounded several teams on the mountain road.

"My mother, why did so many bandits suddenly appear?" Wen Bai's eyes widened with a look of shock.

"There are actually more than a dozen martial artists, most of them are still at the third level of qi refining, and this is troublesome......" Wen Zhu's face changed slightly.

Not only them, but even the warriors in the several teams that followed behind also changed color.

Several teams on their side, the number of martial artists adds up to about twenty people, it is a force that should not be underestimated, according to common sense, ordinary bandits would never dare to stand in the way and rob, but at this moment, among the hundreds of bandits surrounding them, there are actually more than a dozen martial artists, and most of them are third-level martial artists of qi refining, no wonder they are so bold.

What made Wen Bai and the others even more shocking was that the dozen or so martial artists on the bandit side, the two leading ones, although one was short and thin like a monkey, the other was fat like a pig, and they looked strange, but they all had a fifth-level cultivation of qi refining, plus hundreds of bandits, the momentum was quite huge.

Lin Fan and the three of them jumped out of the carriage, leaning on each other's backs, and their spiritual power flowed, preparing to deal with the attack of the bandits.

As for the coachman, no one cares about his life or death at the moment of the great enemy.

It's just that no one would have thought that just when everyone was nervous and confronted the bandits, the coachman sat there for a long time, and his eyes under the straw hat showed a touch of cruelty.

Lin Fan's gaze glanced at the coachman intentionally or unintentionally, and his expression was a little more solemn.

The seven or eight warriors of the beast hunting group in the back, after exchanging glances with each other, quickly approached Lin Fan and the three of them, one of them was a thin man in his forties, who seemed to be the leader of this martial arts team, his eyes were directly locked on Lin Fan, and said to Ye Luo in a low and fast voice: "This little brother, the bandits are powerful, if we fight separately, I am afraid that we will be broken by each of us, and it will be difficult to escape death! At present, only cooperation can have a glimmer of life! What does the little brother think?"

The thin man has the peak cultivation of the fourth layer of qi refining, and he is the strongest person in this martial arts team, but he secretly observed Lin Fan and the three of them just now, and he couldn't see through Lin Fan's strength, guessing that this young man's strength must surpass his own, so he naturally regarded Lin Fan as the most powerful one among the three.

There are many bandits, if they rush up, the others will just return it, and they will not pose a threat to Lin Fan and others, but the dozen or so bandit warriors, especially the two fourth-level qi refining martial artists, are difficult to deal with, and among the bandits, there are still a few archers ambushed on the side, although Lin Fan is fearless and confident that he can fight his way out of the encirclement, but Wen Bai and Wen Zhu are difficult to say, if they are not careful, they may die.

"Okay! The bandit leader, I'll deal with it! The other bandits, I'll leave it to you! Brother Bai, Sister Zhu'er, be careful yourself!"

After Lin Fan finished speaking, he let out a long roar, and his body swept towards the fat and thin bandit.
