Chapter 11: Into the Mountains

Night fell, and the moonlight flashed like a mist woven by a hazy silver veil, on the leaves, on the pillars, on the armrests of the wicker chairs, and on the faces of the people.

In the silence of the forest, the group of men and horses walked quietly, a pair of vigilant eyes, constantly sweeping the dark places in the surrounding trees, palms tightly gripping the weapons at their waists, ready to deal with any unexpected situation.

As a veteran mercenary who has been mixed in the Beast Vein Mountain Range for many years, although it is the first time to cooperate, they can maintain a basic tacit understanding, and their eyes are intertwined, and they can also identify some signals representing danger and safety from the other party's eyes.

In this kind of danger, everywhere around, everyone's faces were covered with sweat, Ye Chen turned his head and looked at the Baicao Garden medicine collection team behind him that was heavily guarded, his eyes swept casually in the team, and finally stopped at the woman in the white dress who was surrounded in the middle as if she was being held by the stars.

At this time, Xiaoyan straightened up slightly, gently wiped the sweat beads on her forehead with the back of her hand, and panted lightly, with that soft cheek, she looked quite lovable.

Seeing Xiao Yan revealing this appearance, some of the mercenaries around suddenly had the urge to carry it to their destination, but they also knew that even if they wanted to carry it, Xiao Yan would only refuse with a smile.

When everyone's eyes converged on Xiao Yan, a man walked over, the man who had let Ye Chen into the team before, walked to Xiao Yan's side, and sat with Xiao Yan chatting.

Xiaoyan has liked you for a long time, so you can give me a chance!" the middle-aged man said.

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Thanks to the deputy head of the regiment, it's just that the little woman already has someone I like, so I can't accept your request."

After Xiaoyan finished speaking, she continued to hurry ahead.

Rose, the deputy head of this team, was rejected by Xiao Yan like this, the man did not have the slightest annoyance on his face, smiled faintly, waved his palm, and shouted: "Huya people, pay attention to me, now I am about to enter the Beast Mist Mountain Range, don't capsize in the gutter!"

"Yes, Deputy Commander!" replied the group!

Hearing the cheers of the deputy head of the regiment, dozens of big men around him suddenly responded in unison, and the neat tone attracted everyone's continuous sideways, even Xiaoyan, who was walking in front, also looked back. “

Very satisfied with this reaction," Rose smiled slightly, took two quick steps again, and walked side by side with Xiaoyan, extremely eager to protect himself. “

Ye Chen watched this scene from the side, didn't say anything, and followed behind the medicine collection team alone.

Everyone in this team wears a tiger tooth badge on their chest.

It seems that these people should be one of the two major mercenary groups in Luo Town, the Huya Mercenary Group (as the name suggests... Tooth extraction).

"Looking at the degree of protection of these Huya mercenary members to the medicine collection team, it is obvious that they are also guards hired by Baicao Garden, and it seems that Baicao Yuan's trust in the Huya mercenary group is much stronger than that of these temporary mercenaries formed before, otherwise, they would not have been allowed to serve as personal guards. “

"Outside of the Beast Mist Mountains, everything was relatively peaceful, but not long after the team entered the Beast Mist Mountains, a small-scale gluttonous attack appeared in front of them brutally. “

The attacker was a ten-headed first-order glutton, named Hong, "This kind of small-sized demonic beast is quite common in the periphery of the demonic beast mountain range, its attribute is fire, and the fire that erupts is poisonous, if the poisoned person is not treated within half a day, his body will be stiff, and the blood in his body will be blocked until he dies." “

Ten first-order gluttonous dragons, hanging on the trunk of the tree, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the people below, like lightning, spewed sparks very easily, and suddenly, the three men's faces turned pale, and their hands and feet were cold for a while, and hot for a while.

Attacked by the attack, everyone immediately shot out angrily, and in a moment, more than a hundred people went up to beat those first-order demonic beasts in groups, and soon they were beaten to death by the group without accident.

After killing the glutton, they did not find any trace of the demon core in his body, and in this regard, the mercenaries only sighed with a little regret, it is not uncommon to kill the gluttonous in the field and return in vain at the cost of heavy casualties, so they are not too disappointed in this.

The mercenaries who were poisoned by the fire poison were quickly sent to the medicine collection team in the rear after the gluttony was solved, and Xiao Yan personally took action to expel the fire poison in their bodies for them.

And after the attack of the gluttony, the medicine collection team that had suffered a loss became even more cautious, and they began to walk around the mountain range to prevent them from being attacked again when they were resting, but it was obviously impossible to completely avoid the gluttony.

After resting, the team began to walk less than ten kilometers away, and everyone was attacked by three waves of gluttony, but fortunately, the medicine collection team was outnumbered, and at the cost of a dozen medicine collection team members being slightly injured, they repelled the attacks of several waves of demonic beasts.

In the exploration team that followed ahead, Ye Chen, who was unavoidable, also directly participated in a battle with them, but in the head-on collision with a first-order glutton, it ended at the cost of numbness in his palm.

"Looking at the cunning escape after the attack was fruitless, the gluttony is very smart, not like other beasts, they understand the truth of running away if they can't fight, and they won't fight like other monsters at all. “

His move will let others have a deeper understanding of him," At this time, a young man from the medicine collection team came over and said: "Little brother, is it okay, I just saw that you are very skilled in killing that glutton, so keep working hard!"

After finishing speaking, they followed the advance team and went down, their team was here to ensure the safety of the medicine collection team, so they had to clear some obstacles first. In this way, the safety of the medicine collection team can be guaranteed, and if so, enough money can be made to return home.

A middle-aged man next to him walked over at this time, little brother, your strength is not very good, otherwise you can go to the back and walk with the medicine collection team.

Ye Chen said: "Uncle, don't worry, I will be extra careful, you don't have to worry about me, you go and take care of those who need to be taken care of." “

"Look at your strength, at most it is only in the three stars of the martial arts, you have just gathered your qi, you have to be careful, otherwise it will not be good to explain here." The middle-aged man quipped. “

Anyway, you are also a friend of Miss Xiaoyan, and we have to take care of you.

In this kind of environment, "Maybe one careless person can really explain to this beast mist mountain range, and that one will be a little more than worth the loss." “

Ye Chen, in this environment, can only rely on himself to save his life, his eyes are smart at any time, follow the back of the team, and continue to silently walk towards the place where the medicine is collected.

"Everyone, it's close to the herb collection area here, please take a break, everyone is tired after walking for so long. After walking some distance again, the leader of the group suddenly said in the quiet line. “

We're just waiting here for the team to come, let's walk together, and now we'll start arranging this area for me first, in case the gluttons take the opportunity to sneak attack.

Soon the medicine collection team also followed, "The whole team stopped invariably, Ye Chen turned his head, looked at the woman who did not have the slightest impurity in his smile, and walked forward to talk to the woman.

Xiaoyan is very dangerous here, you must pay attention to safety, you are my first friend in this continent, I don't want anything to happen to you. “

After finishing speaking, Ye Chen walked into the front team alone.

Several leaders of the team, after a quick discussion, decided to let a dozen mercenaries disperse around to guard, and the others rested in place, because they were in a hurry, and after a few sneak attacks with the gluttony, they consumed a lot of energy.

Ye Chen sat on the ground, "He exhaled slowly, his eyes swept around, and he settled down to rest after making sure it was safe." “

took out the elixir that Xiaoyan had prepared for him, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. Leaning against the trunk of the tree, his eyes slightly closed, he let the medicine quickly replenish his strength.

Because of the help of the elixir, Ye Chen's physical strength slowly recovered.

Ye Chen muttered in his heart, and he didn't know how long it would take to leave this mountain range safely.

Time passed little by little, time passed quickly, and it was more than half a month to come to the mountain range, and there were several waves of sneak attacks in the middle.

"With the trip of the medicine collection team, I am also thinking about whether I can reach Tianhe Sect in a month, I heard that Tianhe Sect will start recruiting students in a month, and the time is limited.

"There are countless students who went to Tianhe Sect this time. I heard that because of the large number of people, Tianhe Sect decided to add half a month to last year's recruitment time, and with so many days, I thought about it in my heart, and my mood slowly calmed down. ”

The medicine collection team is also getting deeper and deeper into the mountains, and Ye Chen, who followed the team, is also among them, walking a distance again, dim vision, "Suddenly brightened, and when I looked up, it turned out that I had passed through a small dense forest, and what appeared in front of them was another scene." “
