Chapter 45: The Expedition

Yue Wuya didn't have a long time to explore, he went out in the morning, and before noon, he returned to the hotel with a sad face.

After Yue Wuya's explanation, Chen Fan learned about the Bai family's local power. It turned out that the head of the Bai family used to be the head of the martial arts hall, and later, with the continuous expansion of the power of the martial arts hall, the reputation of the head of the Bai family became more and more prominent, and he integrated the apprentices in the martial arts hall into his own disciples, and then widely involved in local business, after nearly ten years of operation, has already become the most powerful family in the local area.

After listening to Yue Wuya's introduction, Chen Fan was speechless for a long time and fell into a deep meditation.

After being silent for a moment or so, Chen Fan solemnly said to Yue Wuya and Luo Qingyun: "We can't wait for Fang Han and them to come and join us, we must leave here immediately! Wuya, where is the closest to Qingye Town?"

Yue Wuya groaned for a moment, and then replied: "To the south of Aoba Town is the Red Forest, and after the Red Forest, it is the Sifang City, where there is no power of the Bai family. ”

"Okay! Wuya, you immediately find someone to return to Lord Hongzhuang's mansion, and say that we will immediately leave for Sifang City, and let Fang Han and them meet us in Sifang City!"

"Understood, Brother Chen!" Yue Wuya agreed, turned around and strode away.

At this time, Luo Qingyun, who had been silent, said in a low voice: "Brother Chen, right... I'm sorry, but I'm the one who caused you ......."

Chen Fan waved his hand with a smile and said, "Qingyun, if you say so, you will see the outside, regardless of whether you are Xiao Wen's sister, even if it is a woman who does not know me, under the circumstances at that time, I will make a move." ”

Luo Qingyun was embarrassed by Chen Fan's words, but his lips opened lightly, and he whispered: "Thank you!"

"Okay, since it happened, don't think about it anymore, let's hurry up and pack our things, and when Wuya comes back, we'll leave immediately. ”

After returning from the moon, Chen Fan stopped staying in Aoba Town for long, he contacted a local expedition team, and together with the expedition team, they set foot on the first destination of their trip, the Red Forest.

The mangrove is the largest primeval forest around Aoba Town, the trees in the forest are all very tall, covering the sky, and the sunlight that can be transmitted through the cracks in the leaves is not one, although it is daytime, the sun is shining in the sky, and the sun is in the middle of the day, but the light here is still not very good, as if it is in a cloudy environment.

The distance between the trees is not very close, so people walk in the middle, it is quite smooth, the lack of sunlight, so that there are no big shrubs between the trees to grow, only messy weeds and vines dotted in between, the ground is covered with a thick layer of leaves, as soon as people step on it, rustling, occasionally stepping on a dry branch, there will be a crisp sound of branch breaking, in the quiet woods, it seems particularly loud.

A group of adventurers was walking forward in the woods, this group of adventurers was not very numerous, only about twenty people, and the two people in front of them were big men with shields in their left hands and swords in their right hands, wearing iron armor. At the end of the team, there was a young man about twenty years old, dressed in a black power suit, with a blue ring ruler hanging on his back, his eyes flashing, and it seemed that his martial arts were not weak. Around the young man in black, there was a tall man with a slender figure and a beautiful woman.

Several people's eyes were as cold as ice, observing the movements around them from time to time, as if to check if they were following them.

These people are none other than Chen Fan and the others.

After walking for a while, Chen Fan, who was at the back of the team, ran to the front of the team and asked an elderly middle-aged man: "Uncle De, how long do we have to walk to get there?" If it's still far away, let's stop and rest for a while, eat something and then go, everyone is tired now." ”

Walking in front of Chen Fan, a middle-aged man in a gray robe turned around, he was the leader of this expedition, called Mingde. Mingde wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, sighed and said, "It's still far away, it is estimated that it will be there this afternoon, so let's rest before leaving." ”

At this time, a big man next to him shouted loudly: "The captain has an order, everyone rest in place, and then continue on the road after half an hour." After that, Dahan picked out two people from the team and distributed them around to patrol, and then everyone sat down to rest.

When everyone heard this, except for the two who were about to be put on guard, they all found a dry place nearby to sit down, took out dry food and ate it, and took a sip of water bladders from time to time.

Chen Fan walked to Mingde's side and sat down, picked up the water bladder and drank two sips, then suddenly turned his head to Mingde and said, "Uncle De, is the road ahead easy to walk?"

Mingde shook his head and said with a sad face: "If this place is still easy to walk, then there is no road in the world that is difficult to walk." The mangrove forest has existed for thousands of years, and the forest is full of trees and beasts, and every time we came here before, we would encounter some unnamed monsters, and the losses were quite large. ”

Chen Fan was secretly frightened when he heard this, and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a slight vibration from the ground, and there was a faint roar in the distance.

Mingde frowned, stood up, and instructed a big man next to him: "You go and see, what's going on." ”

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the big man immediately ran in the direction where the voice came from.

The shaking was getting louder and louder, and everyone who was resting already felt that something was wrong, and they all stood up and drew their weapons to stand by. This is a dangerous red forest, and you can't be careless at any time.

Chen Fan looked at the direction from which the voice came, his face was solemn, but there was no panic.

Looking at Chen Fan's expression, Mingde couldn't help but nod slightly, with a look of appreciation on his face.

Everyone quietly looked in the direction from which the voice came, and because of the high trees and dense forests, the field of vision was not very far, and soon the big man who had gone out to inquire about the news rushed back, shouting as he ran: "Defend, defend!" Many wild beasts rushed over. ”

Mingde immediately sent the order down and began to form a defensive formation with everyone in front of them were the two big men in iron armor who were exploring the path just now, and there were two other middle-aged men with swords beside them.

Under Mingde's unhurried command, everyone quickly formed a formation, and the big man also ran back to Mingde's body.

As soon as the big man came to Mingde, the young man in black, he saluted and said, "Patriarch, there are many wild beasts running towards us over there, and there are very many of them, at least four or five hundred, among them, I have also seen ......."

"What do you see, say anything quickly!" Mingde heard Dahan's report, and his heart was a little heavy.

"Yes, I also saw a lot of lone wolves and cheetahs caught in the herds of wild beasts!"

"And cheetahs?" Mingde smiled bitterly, this time it was really a bit difficult. You know, the cheetah is a well-known beast in the forest, if there is only one cheetah, it is easy to do it, let people go up and pester it, and then besiege it. But now that there are herds of cheetahs, then their own people may be wiped out today.

It didn't take long for a large number of beasts to appear in front of everyone's eyes.

At the forefront of the pack were lone wolves, which were mixed with wild boars and other unknown beasts, and the cheetah followed at the end of the group.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Mingde immediately gave an order to the people around him: "The person on the left is responsible for attacking the wolves, and the one on the right is responsible for attacking the cheetah in the rear, which side is the first to break through and immediately support the other side, understand?"

"Understood!" shouted in unison.

As he spoke, the beast had already made contact with the people in front of the team, first of all, a large number of berserk lone wolves rushed straight towards everyone, even if they were hacked to death, the rest of the lone wolves had to rush straight up, and the heavy body and strong momentum made the personnel in charge of defending the front under pressure increase greatly for a while.

In the interval between the impact of the raging lone wolf, the cheetah, which was fast behind it, rushed over, clawed and bitten, and attacked everyone, in addition, the beasts on both sides also bypassed the front and ran to both sides, surrounding everyone.

The pressure also increased, and the several big men who had been guarding Mingde's side had already left him to go in one direction to assist others in the defense, and under the combined attack of the raging lone wolf and the cheetah, the entire expedition was almost defenseless.

The first wave of beast impact, everyone struggled with all their strength, and finally resisted without danger, but immediately after, the second wave of attacks came.

"Plop, pounce, pounce!"

In a series of assassinations, the three lone wolves had taken the lead in stretching out their front paws and continuously slapping on the defender's weapon, and the powerful force poured into everyone's body along the weapon, and the expedition members could no longer stand steadily, and their bodies were shocked backwards, revealing a hole in the defense.

As soon as the beast in front saw it, it immediately poured in from this loophole, and the defenders next to it were shocked, if the beast ran into the defensive circle, everyone would be in danger.

Chen Fan secretly screamed badly, he immediately broke away from the original battle place, jumped into the encirclement that was broken by the lone wolf, and the Xuantian Ring Ruler in his hand immediately continued to shoot around.

A few cold lights flashed, and a gust of flying air rushed straight to the lone wolf not far away, and in a moment, the lone wolves running in front were immediately blasted into the sky and pulp, and blood rained everywhere.

After killing the lone wolf rushing in in a few moves, Chen Fan took a step back, returned to his original place, and returned to his original state again, as if nothing had happened at all just now.

Mingde was taken aback by Chen Fan's strength, he couldn't imagine that this young boy was actually such a powerful master, looking at the way he made his move, he was afraid that he had already reached the realm of hell.

Yes, he must have reached the Earth Shatter Realm! Mingde never imagined that Chen Fan would actually reach the Earth Shatter Realm at such a young age, and he sighed secretly: What a person is really unseemly!

There was no time to continue to sigh, the beasts behind had already surged upward, and continued to pounce on everyone frantically.
