Chapter 14: Caravans
Zhang Bufan didn't know when there was an extra dagger in his hand, and at the same time, he attracted the breath of the Shan Hai Jing and stabbed at the protective shield outside Gu Cheng's body.
Gu Cheng's protective shield is to restrain demon beasts, and any restraint method related to demon beasts cannot be compared to the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
At this time, the breath of the Shan Hai Jing only leaked a little, and Gu Cheng's proud defense was self-defeating.
Gu Cheng was shocked and wanted to dodge, but Zhang Bufan's dagger had already penetrated his heart.
Gu Cheng's blood gushed out from the corners of his mouth, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he grabbed Zhang Bufan, who had exhausted all his strength, and fell towards the height of a hundred zhang under the spirit boat together.
"Don't!"
Chen Sisi let out a heart-rending cry, wanting to reach out and grab Zhang Bufan, but he was still a step too late.
Chen Sisi was stunned and looked at the figures of Zhang Bufan and Gu Cheng twisting together and falling rapidly, and tears flowed down his eyes.
A moment later, the spirit boat sailed out of the thunderclouds, and the thunderbird retreated, leaving He Liuyun, Zhang Hu, Zhao Qingyang, Chen Sisi, and Zhou Shen.
Although they escaped death, the mood of several people was extremely heavy, especially the picture of Zhang Bufan standing up to save them and dying with Gu Cheng in the end, which made them unable to calm down for a long time.
Zhang Bufan's image suddenly became taller in their hearts, even Zhou Shen, who had been picking on Zhang Bufan, recalled what he had done in the past at this time, and he regretted it...
Unfortunately, everything will not be done again......
Chen Sisi bandaged He Liuyun's wounds, and then took out the communication charm to deliver the message to the sect, only to find that her communication charm was invalid for some reason.
The four of Zhang Hu also took out their communication charms and tried to activate them, but they all shook their heads and sighed.
"I'm afraid it's the magnetic field interference received in the thundercloud that has destroyed the structure of these communicators. Zhang Hu thought for a moment. speculated.
Zhao Qingyang nodded rarely, did not go against Zhang Hu, and instead asked He Liuyun, who had calmed down: "Senior brother, now that junior brother and Gu Cheng have been... It's no longer there, the Chiyao tribe, are we still going?"
Before the trial mission began, the team had already lost two people, and they still wanted to continue this trial.
He Liuyun pondered for a moment and said: "There is the Chiyao tribe not far ahead, although we have lost contact with the sect now, but in the sphere of influence of the Hidden Sword Sect, except for the heaven and earth disasters, there should be nothing that can pose a threat to us, as long as we are careful, there will be nothing wrong with the trial mission." ”
Zhou Shen also echoed: "Since we have all come here, wouldn't it be timid to go back now, and besides, we just went to the Chiyao tribe to find out the reason, and there would be no danger." ”
Zhang Hu and Zhao Qingyang also felt that the trial task still had to continue, and as for Gu Cheng and Zhang Bufan's affairs, when they returned to the sect, they would definitely seek justice for Zhang Bufan.
Chen Sisixiu's brows furrowed, she had no intention of continuing to complete the trial task at this time, but several other fellow disciples wanted to continue to go to the Chiyao tribe, and there was only one spirit boat, so she swallowed all her worries.
Although the spirit boat was scorched black everywhere, it still flew through the clouds, and within a few days, it reached the Chiyao tribe......
And Zhang Bufan and Gu Cheng were in the process of falling, the latter's breath gradually weakened, and a pair of eyes were full of hatred.
Zhang Bufan listened to the wind whistling in his ears, and his heart was sad: "I didn't expect it to be so soon, I'm going to die again..."
If you fall down at such a high distance, I'm afraid you'll fall straight into meat sauce......
"But! I don't want to die yet!"
Zhang Bufan roared in his heart, grabbed Gu Cheng's body and put it under him, and at the same time took off Gu Cheng's clothes and tied them to his hands and feet, the whole person was like a bat with wings, and after opening his arms, the speed of his fall suddenly slowed down a lot.
"It's not enough!"
At this falling speed, Zhang Bufan still has no chance of survival, but it is the ultimate he can do at this time.
When he was still dozens of meters away from the ground, Zhang Bufan saw that there were several big trees on the wasteland, although the branches and leaves were sparse, but they could reduce a lot of buffering force for him!
Almost in the blink of an eye, Zhang Bufan had already made head-on contact with the big tree, and Gu Cheng's corpse was cushioned under him, unloading a lot of power for him, but Zhang Bufan was still affected by the overwhelming impact and immediately fainted.
......
"Thirsty... I'm so thirsty..."
In several tents in the wasteland, a young man was covered in scars, his bones were almost all broken, and his spiritual power had dried up, lying on a bed made of animal skins, moaning like a gossamer.
This young man is Zhang Bufan who fell from the spirit boat.
"Abba!he's awake!~"
A crisp child's voice sounded with joy, speaking in a tone with a characteristic accent of the wasteland.
Zhang Bufan trembled and raised his eyelids, and a black and thin little girl came into his eyes. The little girl looked like she was about seven or eight years old, with two cupola pigtails, her skin was dark and rough under the wind and sun, and her two faces were even more red, which was the unique wasteland red of the wasteland mortals.
Behind the little girl, there was also a burly and strong middle-aged man, this man had black thick curly hair, thick lips, a darker and deeper complexion than the little girl, shirtless, a tiger skin tied diagonally from the right shoulder, and a sharp scimitar pinned to the side and back.
When the little girl saw Zhang Bufan wake up, her black eyes were smiling, like a crescent moon playing with a smile, holding a bronze cup with a smile and feeding Zhang Bufan water.
After Zhang Bufan drank the water, he had the strength to thank him.
I learned that this cute little girl's name was Sanna, and the burly middle-aged man was her Abba Santa.
They rescued Zhang Bufan three days ago, but Zhang Bufan's companion could not be saved.
Zhang Bufan did not hide his name, but he did not tell them that he was a disciple of the Hidden Sword Sect.
Sanna's father and daughter thought that Zhou Shen was Zhang Bufan's companion, and the simple wasteland people felt sorry for him.
They were a caravan in the wasteland called the Galloping Horse, transporting and reselling the necessities of life such as grain, cloth, and salt between the various tribes.
There were more than a dozen of them, all living in such rudimentary tents.
"I've been in a coma for three days...... Zhang Bufan muttered in a low voice, and then asked, "Do you know the Chiyao tribe?
"Chi Yao, we're about to go to Chi Yao!" Sanna jumped happily when she heard Zhang Bufan mention Chi Yao, as if she had found some fun treasure.
Looking at Zhang Bufan's puzzled eyes, Santa explained: "The Chiyao tribe has developed and prospered in the past year, so there are many good things that are not available elsewhere, and Sanna is so happy. ”
"Development is prosperous...... Then why don't you pay the ...... for worship" Zhang Bufan's doubts in his heart were even stronger, and he secretly guessed.
Santa interrupted Zhang Bufan's thoughts and added: "According to the foot strength of our horses, as long as we successfully pass through the Black Wind Ridge tomorrow, we will be able to reach the Chiyao tribe the day after tomorrow!"
At the mention of Black Wind Ridge, Santa sighed, her face covered with gloom.
Even the cheerful Sanna sat obediently on the sidelines, bowing her head and pouting.
