116 Crisis
Xue Yi, Ding Li, and Wu Yingzi made a decision and immediately finalized the itinerary. Tomorrow will give Ding Li and Wu Yingzi a day to prepare, and the day after tomorrow, the three of them will head towards Lei Valley.
The next day, Ding Li and Wu Yingzi went to prepare. Xue Yi went to the training ground alone to practice swords.
While it hasn't set off yet, it's best to increase your strength, and no one knows what dangers will be encountered in Thunder Valley.
It's just that Xue Yi is a little regretful that the old blacksmith man had told him before that he would have the opportunity to learn archery. I didn't listen to it at the time, and I never learned. If you know how to bow now, you can use the bow made by the old man and use it in a critical moment, and you will have a better chance of saving your life.
But now there is no time to learn from him, so he can only wait to come back from Thunder Valley.
The academy has been on vacation, and there is only Xue Yi in the entire training ground, which feels extremely empty.
When Xue Yi was practicing his sword seriously, behind him, Ling Xue in a green dress appeared.
With Xue Yi's current soul strength, he could easily sense Ling Xue's appearance. He turned his head, smiled lazily, and said, "Ling Xue, it's a holiday, and you haven't gone home yet?"
There seemed to be a faint melancholy look in Ling Xue's eyes, and she nodded and said, "I'll go back today." My father brought in and said, if you have time during the summer vacation, you are welcome to go to Wanghai City. ”
Xue Yi smiled apologetically: "Thank you father for me, but I'm afraid I won't have time this summer, so I'll have a chance in the future." ”
A trace of disappointment obviously flashed on Ling Xue's face, and her mood seemed to be low: "Oh, I know, then I'll leave now......"
Although she said "leave now", Ling Xue did not turn around, as if waiting for something.
When Xue Yi saw Ling Xue say this, he immediately said, "Be careful on the road." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and continued to practice his sword.
Ling Xue seemed even more disappointed, silently watching Xue Yi's back practicing swords, and after a moment, she turned around and slowly left.
Early the next morning, Ding Li appeared in front of Xue Yi in high spirits, carrying a large bag of things, which was naturally food. Xue Yi put that big bag of food into the signaling space.
When Wu Yingzi appeared, he didn't take anything, only brought more than a thousand dragon coins.
Wu Yingzi knows deeply that as long as there is money, there is nothing missing.
The three of them left the academy, but instead of going directly out of the city, they went to an inn.
Xue Yi found the black lock and told him that he was about to leave, and if he wanted, he could leave with him now. If you don't want to, you'll leave a dragon coin for him.
Hei Suo didn't say a word, and his white eyes were full of joy: "I'll go with you." ”
Black Lock has always lived in battle, and has never been so idle as in these two months. At this time, it was the time of extreme boredom, and now that he heard that Xue Yi was going to Thunder Valley, he naturally wanted to follow.
And for him, no one else is trustworthy, only Xue Yi, who gave him food, is the most trustworthy person.
When the next group of four people left Yandu and headed south.
Thunder Valley is at the southernmost tip of the Yanlong Empire, at the junction with the Thunder Dragon Empire. It is thousands of miles away from Yandu.
The four of them directly bought four good horses and galloped south along the main road.
......
When Xue Yi and the others left Yandu, a figure walked into a small courtyard in Yandu.
This man was dressed in a man's clothes, but he walked like a woman.
This is none other than the yin big brother, the eldest young master.
Seeing Xue Yi kill the Grim Reaper in the Dragon Arena that day, he quickly left the Dragon Arena, and then simply disposed of the black faces of his subordinates. Therefore, although Lei Yu Sitong asked those people in the royal family to secretly check the black face, they found nothing.
Now the eldest young master already knows Xue Yi's movements, so he came to this courtyard.
This courtyard is a very ordinary courtyard in the entire Yandu, so ordinary that no one will pay attention to it.
The eldest young master entered the courtyard and was led to the main hall of the courtyard.
There was a man in the main hall with a gloomy face.
The eldest young master looked at the man and said, "I have a business, I don't know if you can complete it." ”
The man with a gloomy face said, "In the Holy Dragon Continent, there is nothing that our Dark Moon Group has not done. ”
The eldest young master said, "I know that your Dark Moon Group is the largest killer organization in the entire Yanlong Empire, so please help me kill someone." ”
The grim-faced man said, "Give me the name, the rank, and all kinds of information." ”
"His name is Xue Yi, a tenth-level dragon rider, and he is now on his way to Thunder Valley. Saying that, the eldest young master told Xue Yi and his party about their appearance, and someone next to him wrote it down.
After that, the man with a gloomy face said to one of the people standing by the door: "Send the message to the past, let the five groups in the south go forward, two seventh-level martial artists, and one dragoon attendant are enough." ”
When the eldest young master heard this, a smile gradually appeared on his face: "If you only have a seventh-level martial artist and a dragoon attendant, it is purely looking for death." When he was a ninth-level dragoon, he killed a first-level dragoon attendant with one punch. ”
The man with a gloomy face listened, and was slightly surprised: "Oh, then send one more eighth-level martial artist, and bring the bloodthirsty swords of the five groups, this should be enough, right?"
Saying that, he turned his head to the eldest young master: "Assassinating a tenth-level dragoon student, but using an eighth-level martial artist and a dragoon attendant, this is the first time in my Dark Moon Group." ”
The eldest young master smiled coldly: "Be prepared." As for the honorarium, I will pay half of it here, and the rest will be settled after killing him. ”
......
Let's say that Xue Yi and the four of them have been riding for more than ten days, traveling seven or eight hundred miles a day, and now they are not far from Thunder Valley.
Although Black Lock knew that he was going to Thunder Valley, in his consciousness, he didn't know where Thunder Valley was, let alone where Thunder Valley was.
On this day, they were less than a hundred miles away from Thunder Valley.
The rest of the road is all mountains and forests, so you can't ride a bike, so you can only walk.
The four of them dismounted and headed out into the forest.
Although the mountains and forests here are not as large as those of Longyuan Mountain, the fierce beasts in the mountains are no less than those of Longyuan Mountain. There are even many fierce beasts that are even stronger than those in Longyuan Mountain.
However, now that Xue Yi's strength has increased greatly, he can also be caught against such a fierce beast.
Even higher, the eighth-level martial artist Black Lock, although he only has one arm, is extremely violent. A mace is invincible, and at his feet, all the beasts are dying miserably. With him opening the way, Xue Yi and Ding Li and Wu Yingzi have saved a lot of trouble.
Ding Li and Wu Yingzi saw Hei Suo display his strength for the first time, and the two looked at each other in surprise.
Although I know that the eighth-level martial artist is very strong, it can't be strong to this extent, and this method is also ...... It's brutal. The brains in one place and the corpses in one place, the two of them were disgusted to see.
Xue Yi, who had already experienced the life-and-death battle in the Dragon Fighting Arena, felt nothing.
In the dragon arena, he has seen a lot of all kinds of brutal things, and now these are far from the same.
The four of them walked forward for a few more days, and judging from the map, they were still five days away from Thunder Valley.
At noon, although the sun was scorching like a fireball outside, in the dense forest, the canopy of trees obscured the sky, but it felt not so hot.
The four of them walked for a while, stopping to rest, eating something to replenish their energy.
At this time, Xue Yi heard as if there was a faint sound of fighting.
He had some doubts in his heart, since they had entered the mountains and forests, they hadn't seen anyone else in the past few days, how could there be a sudden sound of fighting?
Could it be that the mercenaries are hunting here?
Thinking of this, Xue Yi immediately said to the others: "You stay here first, I'll go and see, there seems to be some sound over there." ”
As he spoke, he jumped into the woods and disappeared in a moment.
A few minutes later, I came to a small open space.
As far as the eye could see, there were five or six people fighting. These five or six people were all warriors, and in the center were a man and a woman, and the two of them resisted the attacks of the rest of the people back to back.
However, although both of them are fifth-level martial artists, the surrounding ones are not bad, there are two fifth-level martial artists, and the rest are fourth-level.
The two of them were outnumbered and on the verge of defeat.
Xue Yi didn't plan to help until he knew whether those people were good or evil.
If you save the wicked, won't that help the abuse?
But at this moment, there was a loud shout behind him, and Ding Li had already jumped out.
It turned out that after Xue Yi left just now, the others did not stay where they were, but all followed.
Ding Li had already been promoted to a first-class dragoon at this time, and he swung his huge plate axe and directly killed the surrounding martial artists.
Xue Yi was waiting to stop it, but it was too late.
The first-level dragoon was originally equivalent to a fifth-level peak martial artist, and Ding Li's strength was stronger than that of an ordinary first-level dragoon, plus his fierce flying dragon spewed a mouthful of flames from time to time, which made those martial artists extremely jealous. With him on board, the tide of battle immediately changed.
In a moment, he killed the surrounding warriors.
Those warriors ran away and disappeared cleanly.
Only the man and woman in the middle remained.
Xue Yi shook his head helplessly, and walked out with Black Lock and Wu Yingzi.
When the man and woman saw that Ding Li and others had saved them, they immediately thanked Ding Li: "Thank you for saving us, we are grateful." ”
Ding Li waved his big hand: "Be polite, see the road is uneven, draw your sword to help, this has always been the purpose of our Dragon Knight Academy." ”
When the two heard Ding Li say that they were both from the Dragon Knight Academy, their eyes suddenly showed envy.
Wu Yingzi came over slowly at this time and asked, "Who are you, and why are they chasing and killing you?"
Xue Yi originally didn't care much about this kind of thing that didn't concern him. But now that Wu Yingzi asked, he could only listen.
When the two saw Wu Yingzi asking, they glanced at each other, and the woman nodded to the man.
The man immediately replied, "Since you have saved us, we will have a word to say." ”
Talking about who they were, why they came to this deep forest, and why they were chased and killed by those warriors.
Xue Yi listened to the story of the two people, and his heart seemed to light up......
