Chapter 246: A Grueling Journey

After a day of sailing, the waterway deviated and I had to go ashore and walk.

Everyone moved down the materials, put away the bamboo rafts, and left a few people to guard them, and the large team of people carried the packages and baskets, and slowly marched in the deep mountains and dense forests.

It was a completely primeval jungle, there was no road at all, and everyone was carrying heavy objects, so they had no way to climb the trees, so they had to struggle on the ground.

The canopy boar walked at the front to clear the way for the team, first poking out the way, and then stomping on the left and right, knocking down all the bushes on the road.

Then, the warriors who specialized in opening the way began to pave the way.

They had no metal knives, so they had to smash them with sticks and hammers, and the fallen bushes were beaten flat and could no longer bounce back, and the mud puddles were filled with scattered branches, barely carving out a way.

Just like this, you can do a rough cleaning before you can carry your belongings through.

It was not easy to follow the transport team behind.

If you walk empty-handed, it is naturally very convenient, and you don't even need to open the road, but everyone is carrying a burden, and it is extremely inconvenient to stumble.

Everyone walked cautiously, and if they were not careful, they would fall down, or they would be caught in the branches of the trees, and it would be very difficult to walk.

"Canopy, are you okay?" The dragon spirit was also sweating profusely, and the linen robe on his body was soaked, and asked beside the big wild boar.

He did not ride a pig, but followed the big boar to command, in order to save the canopy's physical strength.

"Whew, whew."

The big boar snorted weakly, and his big ears couldn't shake.

It's been working for more than three hours straight, and it's really tired.

Seeing that it was tired, the dragon spirit patted the pig's ear and said, "Okay, Tianpeng, stop and rest for a while." ”

"Boom." The canopy boar lay down on the ground and spread it on the ground like a heap of pork.

"All rest." The dragon spirit shouted.

When the team behind heard this, they all put down their things, sat down with their butts, and kept wiping their sweat.

The dragon spirit wiped his face with his robe, took a few breaths, took out a large handful of sake lees from a basket, pinched it into a ball the size of a grapefruit, and put it to Tiancang's mouth.

"Canopy, you're doing well today, I'll reward you with double the lees. Eat quickly. ”

The big wild boar smelled the aroma of wine, and suddenly came to his senses, opened his mouth, ate the lees in one mouthful, and then put down his head and chewed slowly with taste.

"Have a good rest, I'll have you to help later." The dragon spirit touched its pig's head, summoned the keeper of the big wild boar to serve it to eat and drink, sat down on the root of a tree, picked up the wine gourd and drank to rest.

"I said no, you won't lead the wrong way, right?" The pork bone on the opposite side bit the dried meat and screamed anxiously.

Xiao Huai shook his head calmly and said, "How come? This is the way I came, and I will never admit that I am wrong. ”

"Hehehe." Pig Bone Jian sneered: "Are you kidding? What way do you know as a blind man? ”

He complained loudly: "I have never been able to figure it out all this way, but it is difficult to say. How can we let a blind man lead the way, isn't that nonsense? ”

When the resting people next to him heard this, they all nodded slightly.

"What Elder Pig said makes sense."

"Yes, what path can a blind man recognize?"

"Don't take us around the woods, do you?"

When he heard the gossip around him, his face turned blue with anger, and he was about to open his mouth to explain, when he heard Long Zi shouting: "Shut up!" ”

The dragon spirit glanced at everyone and said disdainfully: "A group of uninformed guys, do you think that only with long eyes can you recognize the way?" ”

"Hmph." He sneered, "Don't forget, Blind Huai is a ghostly wizard. ”

"He doesn't have eyes, but he can sense his surroundings and see things that others can't."

"The eyes of ordinary people are only useful where there is light, and if there is no light, they are like a blind man."

"But his senses are not limited by light, he can see through the darkness, through smoke and illusions."

"Hehe, although he has no eyes, he can see more clearly and wide than those of you who have eyes, what right do you have to laugh at him."

"That's amazing!" When everyone heard this, they were very surprised and envious at the same time.

"Won't it?" Pig Gujian also screamed in surprise.

With a roll of his eyes, he picked up a branch and gently threw it behind his back.

He didn't move his head, he moved a step under his feet, and dodged the branches very casually.

“!!!”

Pig's mouth was wide open, and he finally obeyed, and gave a thumbs up: "Good ability!" ”

"Hey, huh, what our big leader said is right?"

I saw that I had a strange look, and smiled far-fetchedly: "That's right." ”

He turned his ear to the dragon spirit, nodded and said, "I wonder how the dragon knows that I have these skills?" Did Huang Cai tell you? ”

"Don't doubt your companion, she hasn't divulged any secrets about you with me."

"It's just bat-like sound wave localization, what's so hard to understand."

The dragon smiled carefully, waved his hand, and said indifferently: "When I was in the God Realm, what kind of witchcraft and magic had I not seen?" You're just ordinary witchcraft, you can't hide it from me. ”

Huai Huai became more and more respectful of him, and bent down to salute: "A little trick made Long Zi smile." ”

"You should also take the time to rest." Long Jing settled down, took a sip of wine, stood up, and inspected the team from front to back.

The natives seldom carry heavy loads in the jungle, and they are not used to carrying their burdens, so they are very tired. However, everyone is a strong warrior, and although they are tired, they are in good spirits.

The dragon spirit walked all the way over, asking about the situation as he went, and when he walked to the last team of war beasts, he was missing the three women of the dragon temple.

He hurriedly asked, "Where is the Dragon God Sacrifice?" ”

"We're here." The sound of a bamboo shoot came from the head.

The dragon spirit looked up and saw that three women were lying on the branches, drinking and eating leisurely.

It turns out that the three of them are treated specially, they don't need to carry anything, they just need to control the snakes. The three of them followed the team on the ground for a while, and found it difficult to walk, so they simply climbed up the tree.

"You're at ease, where is the snake? Ignore the snake? The dragon spirit asked loudly as he searched the trees for the Winged Fire Serpent.

Xiao Zhu lowered his head and shouted, "Don't worry, it's all in the basket." ”

"Huh?" The dragon spirit saw that there seemed to be several more baskets in the war beast team, and hurriedly went over, opened the lid of the basket and looked, I wiped it, a basket full of winged fire snakes with their heads held high!

He got angry and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"Aren't they uncomfortable when they put the winged fire snakes in a basket? Also, everyone has enough burdens, and the winged fire snake can walk by itself, so you have to be carried by others, are you not tired enough to see that everyone? ”

Xiao Zhu was not afraid at all, holding a fruit in his hand, and said while gnawing: "The winged fire snake is not good at long-distance travel, if you forcibly drive them away, if you are tired, you will not be able to use it at that time." ”

"You're too lazy to catch up, aren't you?"

"What? Hmph, if you don't want people to pick, no problem, the three of us will rush away. If something happens, don't blame us. ”

"You ......" The dragon spirit was blocked back, and he didn't know if what they said was true or false, so he had no choice but to hold his breath and leave.
