Chapter 1146: Attacked

"Who among you knows the approximate location of the Mountain Bandit Ridge?" Sweeping over those unfamiliar faces, Lin Xuanzhong tried to put down what had happened before and try to be as natural as possible.

"My lord, I know," the next moment, a sturdy third-order martial cultivator walked out of the crowd, and his sharp eyes made Lin Xuanzhong guess that the other party might be from an Orion background.

"It's not early, since you know, let's lead the way in front, let's rush to the mountain bandit ridge as soon as possible," ordered the man, and Lin Xuanzhong turned around and took Zhang Yulong to lead their horses.

"Okay, my lord," on the other side, the man agreed, and then took the lead to walk in the southwest direction, while the others slowly followed, while Lin Xuanzhong and Zhang Yulong followed behind the team on horseback.

Because the snow was too thick, the procession was very slow, and no one spoke along the way, only the rustling sound of stamping on the snow, which never stopped. After a period of helplessness, Lin Xuanzhong had no choice but to ask some people to put the things they were carrying on the crossbow horses, and then he and Zhang Yulong dismounted and left.

Walking in the middle of a snow-white wilderness, against the cold wind, the cold caused so many changes to their itinerary that Lin Xuanzhong always thought about how good it would be if it was summer now, then their speed would definitely be much faster.

"Brother Feng, the scenery here is so beautiful, if we can ride a horse and gallop and enjoy the scenery all the way, how pleasant it would be!" After enduring the unbearable silence for a while, Zhang Yulong couldn't help but talk to Lin Xuanzhong.

"Don't you think this place is too desolate?" As far as the eye could see, there was snow everywhere, except for their group, everything around them was not lifeless, there were no flowers and trees at all, the sky and the earth were the same, too monotonous.

"It's far away from the worldly distractions here, if you can concentrate on cultivation here, it's not bad to pursue that supreme immortal path," to Lin Xuanzhong's surprise, Zhang Yulong suddenly showed a look of ease and ease that saw through the transcendent things of the red dust.

"Yulong, are you stimulated by anything?" Zhang Yulong's ambition to get ahead is about to become his ambition, but now he sees Zhang Yulong acting so indifferently and clearly, considering that even if Zhang Yulong stays here and cultivates all his life, it is impossible to contact the ethereal immortal Dao, Lin Xuanzhong is really confused about the origin of Zhang Yulong's idea.

"Brother Feng, you misunderstood what I meant, I think it is not suitable to stay here until the world is peaceful, now that the war is raging, people with lofty ideals like us still have to carry their swords to break into the world and do a great career, not seeking to be famous for a hundred years, but they can't be obscure, right?"

"I don't know. ”

"Brother Feng, how could you not know? If you don't do something for this world, won't you learn all your skills in vain?" For Lin Xuanzhong's simple answer, Zhang Yulong couldn't listen to it.

"If you don't speak, no one treats you as a dumb person," Zhang Yulong suddenly expressed his mind and caused a certain impact on Lin Xuanzhong, not long ago, Lin Xuanzhong's will was so devastated, and now he really can't cater to Zhang Yulong's pride.

The wind was blowing, and from time to time someone would fall to the ground, and the weakness shown by those people was really unbearable for Lin Xuanzhong.

"My lord, it's a white expanse here, and I can't tell the direction a little," Two hours later, near evening, the person who led the way turned around and explained the situation to Lin Xuanzhong with a look of embarrassment.

There are many mountains here, the terrain is complicated, and they have been shuttling around the valleys, but if you want to say which mountain is the mountain bandit ridge, Lin Xuanzhong is even more unclear, so Lin Xuanzhong will let people show him the way, but unfortunately the person in charge of guiding the way seems to be lost now.

"Find a sheltered place to rest for the night first, and then go to the mountain bandit ridge early tomorrow morning," Seeing that it was getting late, considering that it was inconvenient to move at night, Lin Xuanzhong felt that there was no need to rush for a while. They had been on the road for two hours, and now they were all tired.

"My lord, it's the east wind blowing today, and there's a col over there to block the wind, so let's rest there for the night," because he couldn't find the mountain bandits, the man also had the idea of stopping and resting.

"We'll rest here tonight," Not long after, when he arrived at the location where he could shelter from the wind, under Lin Xuanzhong's instructions, Chen Wei, who was in charge of guiding the way, waved and shouted to everyone.

Immediately afterward, dozens of people stopped to find a place to rest, but the thick snow made them stand again. They brought food and clothes, but they couldn't stay overnight with this little thing, and they also needed firewood, which would be difficult to survive without fire in the cold and snow, but it was not so easy to find dry firewood.

After stopping, Lin Xuanzhong and the others realized that resting in place was not an easy task. Thinking that they didn't even have the dry firewood they needed for the night, some people even regretted coming out with Lin Xuanzhong because of this, and the reason for this situation was that the relationship between the two parties was not good at the beginning.

If the relationship between the two parties is normal, before leaving, Lin Xuanzhong will ask them to bring more clothes for heating at night. Now there is plenty of food, but there are not enough clothes, and the situation is a little awkward.

"You stay here and clear a clearing, and he and I will go find some dry firewood and come back," only a fire can solve their problem, so while it was still early, Lin Xuanzhong went to see if he could find some firewood with the mentality of trying his luck, and there happened to be two horses to travel on his behalf.

After explaining to those people, Lin Xuanzhong and Zhang Yulong unloaded the things they were carrying immediately, and then the two of them went along the same road to those forested mountains to look for firewood, and gradually drifted away in so many sights.

Not long after, the two of them searched for branches everywhere on the mountain with bushes, the forest was a little dim, and both of them had some difficulty moving, but fortunately they did not disappoint them, and dead branches on the ground could be seen everywhere.

After a while, when he came out of the forest and saw that the sky was darker, Lin Xuanzhong said directly to Zhang Yulong: "You send these firewoods back first, and I'll go in and find some more." ”

The firewood they found was not enough for a night, and when he thought that so many people needed to keep warm, Lin Xuanzhong wanted to find more to go back.

"Brother Feng, is it worth your hard work for them?" In order to find these firewoods, the two of them were a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry so much, send the firewood back as soon as possible," frowning, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't explain it clearly to Zhang Yulong, because his own will didn't seem to want to do it, but his subconscious made him do these things, and he planned to continue to do it, as if he wanted to make up for his previous mistakes, as for whether it made sense, he couldn't tell himself.

"Then be careful, I'll ride back to pick you up later," reluctantly tied the firewood to the horse, Zhang Yulong reluctantly took the two horses back.

As soon as Zhang Yulong left, Lin Xuanzhong, who returned to the forest, fell directly into the abyss of pain, and the situation of wrongly killing the father and son and those guards kept repeating itself in his mind, making him bear a deep sense of guilt, and that discomfort finally overcame the coldness in his heart.

In this dim forest, there were dead branches everywhere, and every time he bent down, Lin Xuanzhong could feel the overlord sword on his back getting heavier and heavier. The treasure that was supposed to be used to eradicate evil was itself tainted with evil, so much so that Lin Xuanzhong thought about how it would feel if the Qin master who forged the sword knew that this sword was used by him to kill good people, and in the end, Lin Xuanzhong also felt that he had defiled this treasure.

As time passed, that strong sense of guilt almost destroyed all of Lin Xuanzhong's will, causing Lin Xuanzhong's movements to pause from time to time.

"Brother Feng, come down quickly, the camp has been attacked. ”

After a while, Lin Xuanzhong had completely fallen into deep self-blame, so much so that he forgot the passage of time, and it was not until a rapid voice came from the bottom of the mountain that his consciousness suddenly woke up.

The eager voice made Lin Xuanzhong's will pass through the trees, and the dimness was transmitted directly to the bottom of the mountain. Immediately afterwards, Lin Xuanzhong, who was holding a large bundle of firewood, hurriedly ran down the mountain.

"What's going on?" As soon as he came out of the woods, he saw Zhang Yulong looking around at the bottom of the mountain, and Lin Xuanzhong asked directly.

"There was a herd of beasts attacking the camp, and I was fighting when I went back, so I came back immediately and called you," Zhang Yulong's tone was very eager, and he directly explained the matter to Lin Xuanzhong.

"Let's go," throwing the firewood aside, a few jumpers, Lin Xuanzhong flew directly to the horse, and then urged the horse to the place where they rested.

Before they got closer, the screams of some people had already come, and in the dim sky, Lin Xuanzhong saw some white-haired beasts attacking those people from a distance, some chose to resist, and some fled in all directions, and the situation over there was chaos.

"Jade Dragon, be careful yourself, I'll kill all those beasts," it seems that good luck doesn't favor them, and they are attacked by fierce beasts first instead of finding the mountain bandits, which is uncomfortable for this kind of thing to happen, especially if you haven't established a good relationship with those miners.

Riding a fast horse, Lin Xuanzhong rushed straight to those snow-white fierce beasts, and waved his long sword at them, again and again, the sharpness of the sword made him like a bamboo, especially when those fierce beasts were defenseless, one sword, dozens of fierce beasts fell most of them in a blink of an eye, those who were in danger got rid of the danger one after another, leaving behind in addition to the torture of the pain, many people were injured under the attack of the fierce beasts, and many people died, when Lin Xuanzhong solved the last fierce beast, this area was in shambles.

The corpses of beasts and men lay scattered in pools of blood, and the blood that flowed stained the snow and changed the color of those places completely.
