Dressed in full armor, carrying a makeshift backpack made of black cloth and carrying the spear, I walked painfully and laboriously on the shore of a huge lava lake.

The temperature here is just too high!

My helmet was as hot as a red-hot piece of iron, and my hair was almost scorched. The battle robe on his body was also burned by the soft armor made of secret copper, which had several large holes. And I was reluctant to discard these equipment on my body, so I could only transport ten percent of the yin power from the dantian to resist this high temperature that was enough to kill me!

It's been three days since I left the main trade route leading from the underworld to Jiuqu City, and I'm currently on a steep path that is inaccessible to people, and I'm continuing my trek in the direction of Jiuqu City with difficulty. The pursuers of the underworld probably don't know my true destination yet, so I'm safe for the time being, and there's no need to change my previous escape plan.

The reason why I came here was because I was very worried about the dog cavalry sent by the underworld. Cerberus has a very sensitive sense of smell, and if you want to rely on the black cloth cover to disguise yourself as a transparent person to hide your position, I am afraid that you will not be able to hide, and the safest way is to stay away from the main road and follow the path forward.

Luckily, I took with me a special military item that I could only equip as a Yin General when I was about to run: a map case. This is a magic weapon to save my life when I am in a state of absconding!

Three days ago, I took out my map case and looked for a hidden path that would lead to Jiuqu City. There is a small road, the closest one, but the terrain is so rugged that even the big snails, which are known for their adaptability, cannot walk, so large caravans naturally do not choose to take this road. In particular, there is a lava lake, which is estimated to be quite hot.

However, for me, who really didn't have a better choice, it was lucky to have such a trail to follow. So, I decided to take this route.

I didn't have time to bring dry food because I was in such a hurry to escape, and I even forgot to bring a water bottle. Once I leave the basin of the underground river, I will most likely not be able to find water to drink. No, I haven't eaten for three days, I haven't drunk water for a day, and the heat here makes me feel very uncomfortable.

Moreover, no matter how loud the wishful thinking is, there will always be times when it makes mistakes. As soon as I crossed the border of the lava lake, I heard the voice of a human being faintly coming from behind me.

"! How do you get here? ”

"What else can I do? Let's run the Yin Gong ourselves, and at the same time let the Cerberus run a little faster! ”

The word "Cerberus" suddenly got into my ears, and I couldn't help but shudder, and I hurriedly hid behind a big rock.

I hid before I peeked behind me through the crack in the rock, and sure enough, I saw the last thing I wanted to see: two heavily armed canine cavalry riding Cerberus!

It seems that the pursuers of the underworld have also thought of any escape route I can think of, and will not let go of any path that can escape from the underworld, and these two canine cavalry are the scouts sent to this hidden path.

"We know Yin Gong, but Cerberus can't!"

"Hey! You're a pig's head! Wild Cerberus grows near lava lakes, and its favorite thing to do is the heat, so you don't have to worry about it! ”

The two canines seemed to disagree on whether or not to cross the lava lake, and continued to argue on the other side of the lake. One of them had been wiping his sweat, clearly not wanting to take the risk.

He said to his companion, "Oops! I think you're taking it too seriously! How could anyone come to such a ghost place? I'm willing to bet 'he' won't come here to hide, it's so hot! ”

The companion looked like a serious person, and insisted: "The more dangerous this kind of place, the more likely it is to become a hiding place for fugitives, don't think about being lazy, hurry up!" ”

"If you want to live by yourself, I'll ...... Take a break and drink water! ”

As he spoke, the dissenting canine cavalry dismounted himself and sat down on a nearby stone to drink. The "he" he just said should be referring to me.

As a strict officer, if I had met such a creacherous subordinate, I would have been tempted to step forward and scold him severely. But unfortunately, I have now become a fugitive, and I still wish he was like this, and it is better to persuade his companions to turn around and leave with me.

"Hey!" The companion was a very principled "good soldier", so he put on a straight face and said: "Although you are older than me, don't forget, I am the captain!" ”

"Whew! Captain Wu? Who gave you the appointment? ”

"Captain Li gave it to me!"

"Is there a letter of appointment? Is there a waist card? ”

"You!"

In the Yin Army, the Wu Commander does not belong to a formal officer, and is only equivalent to the role of the deputy chief in Yishi. In fact, Mo said that the captain of the army, even the chief was joked by many people that he was not considered an officer, because they had few privileges, and they usually ate and lived with ordinary soldiers.

But even the chief still has the official appointment of the Yin Army, and he is also issued a waist card. Therefore, the position of the Wu chief is even more embarrassing, they are generally temporarily designated by the Yin School, and they are even dispensable.

The canine cavalry commander looked very angry, pointed at the veteran soldier and said, "Lao Huang, you can insist on going back to the camp right now." But I'm sure I'm going to tell Captain Li the truth about this, and see if he will recognize what I, the captain, said? ”

The veteran, who was still drinking water, saw that he was more serious, so he had to give in, and reluctantly got up and said, "Okay, okay!" You are an officer, I am a soldier, I listen to you! Otherwise, if I am reported by you, I am afraid that I will not be able to stay in the Yin Army! ”

The two of them fought for a long time, but finally decided to cross the lava lake and continue to hunt for me. I had been eavesdropping on their conversation on the other side of the lake, and I was so disappointed to hear that I had to quickly turn my head around and think about how to avoid them.

However, they were chasing so hard that I could not go far if I wanted to, and there were no other forks in the road. And with the smell of Cerberus, as long as you get close to a distance of about 30 meters, you will definitely be able to smell my scent.

Hum! Since there is no way to hide, you can only kill them!

I decided to take advantage of the heat of the lava lake as a cover and ambush the two pursuers and the Cerberus under them before they could get used to it.

The most important thing is to know how to strike first, and give the opponent a heavy blow in the first round as much as possible, effectively reducing the opponent's combat troops. Once I fall into a positional battle, I have to face two Yin soldiers and two hellhounds by myself, and it is difficult to have a chance of victory.

With this in mind, I found a narrow terrain in time, and chose a small stone in the most suitable position for the canine cavalry to pass through, and hid behind the stone, and at the same time placed the long spear of the snake on the ground to prevent the other side from seeing, and in my hand I only grasped the short-handled Ruchang knife and shield wok.

The two canine cavalry skillfully used the dexterity of the Cerberus to run diagonally along the cave wall on the shore of the lava lake, trying to quickly pass through the hot area at the speed of the Cerberus. And just as they were about to pass through the lava lake, it was the place where I was going to ambush me.

"Roar! Roar! ”

The first horseman, the Cerberus under the Captain's seat, was the first to smell an unusual smell and suddenly began to roar. But instead of slowing down, it increased the frequency of its runs, which made it look very excited.

"It smells of the living! Maybe it's Zhai Zisheng! The Captain, who must have been familiar with the reaction of his close mount, seemed equally happy, and shouted to the veteran soldier behind him. Since he was not an officer, he was not equipped with a long weapon for cavalry, and only a machete was drawn to prepare for the enemy.

The veteran's face was not as happy as his boss's, but in such a hot zone, it was obvious that he had to pass through here quickly no matter what.

When I was only about 20 meters away from Wu Changchang, I staggered up from behind the stone where I was hiding, and deliberately pretended to be very tired and helpless, and weakly raised the kitchen knife and shield in my hand, as if I could only hurriedly prepare to meet the enemy after my whereabouts were discovered.

When Wu Chang saw that it was really me, he was even more excited. shouted: "Zhai Zisheng! Surrender and don't kill, resist and die! ”

I stared at him coldly, nervously calculating the rapidly shrinking distance between the two sides: fifteen meters, ten meters, five meters......

When I was only three meters away from me, the captain of the other party skillfully lifted the reins in his hand and drove the Cerberus under his seat to jump high, wanting to jump over the stone in front of me and kill me directly with the impact of the Cerberus!

At this time, I finally waited for the attack I wanted to induce the opponent to make, hurriedly threw away the usual knife and shield in my hand, picked up the Zhangba snake spear that was lying flat on the ground, raised it forty-five degrees, aimed the tip of the spear at the enemy, and stuck the tail of the pole on the ground.

"Flutter!"

"Roar, roar, roar!"

"Ahhh

The greedy captain and the hellhound he was riding were so fierce that even if they finally discovered my true intentions and were shocked, they didn't have time to avoid them at all, and they were directly pierced by the Zhangba snake spear at once!

The long spear of the Cerberus spear pierced through the Cerberus's chest and then through its back, piercing Captain Wu's entire body again. A person and a dog are like a barbecue skewer, they are skewered together, they can't pull it out, they can't fall down, they just stand stiffly in place, and they die on the spot!

The veteran who was running a little slower behind was shocked when he saw it, and immediately lost his desire to fight, pulled the hellhound under his seat hard, turned around and wanted to escape.

If I let him run away like this, my whereabouts and escape route will probably be completely exposed, and more pursuers will be attracted later. So, I must not leave a living mouth at this time!
