The moon is just right, illuminating the earth.

At this time, a group of people were hurrying at night, and the trees on both sides of the road were shadowed in the moonlight, as if they were hiding countless demons.

This is the fourth night of departure from the Sifangji, and the front is about to reach Blackwood Ridge.

And as long as you pass this Black Wood Ridge, there will be a smooth road ahead, and there will be basically no danger.

Therefore, Chen Yongchang decided to rush overnight tonight and get out of the dangerous place as soon as possible.

At this time, Chen Ziwu did not follow the Taoist priest as usual, but rode a big horse with great skill, patrolling at the front of the team.

At the same time, I prayed to Sun Wukong in my heart, hoping that everything would go well.

Unfortunately, things don't always go your way.

A waist-sized tree fell sideways on the road.

Centaurs can go around, but mule carts cannot.

Seeing this, Chen Ziwu knew that something was wrong, and there would not be a tree blocking the road for no reason.

"Chen Ziyuan, you take some people to move the tree away quickly, and then notify it, and everyone else will be on guard to prevent accidents."

After Chen Yongchang got the news, he calmly gave an order.

He understands that at this time, he must not be chaotic, as long as he is not chaotic, the team will not be chaotic.

The people in the caravan were all his people, and they traveled with him all year round, and there was no problem with discipline.

Although the people recruited in the Quartet are all outlaws, they are not fools, and they understand what to do and what not to do at such a time.

As Chen Yongchang's order was conveyed, the atmosphere in the team suddenly became tense and solemn.

The originally scattered crowd was now surrounding the mule cart, their eyes constantly patrolling the surrounding woods, and their weapons clenched in their hands.

"Hey, hah."

In the quiet forest, only the sound of moving trees was left.

Seeing that a third of the trees were still left to move the trees down the road, a sudden burst of birds suddenly startled in the forest.

Chen Yongchang secretly said that it was not good, he was also a person who had seen the world, and knew that this situation must be a change in the forest and someone was ambushed.

Of course, it could also be a demon!

"Chen Fei, put down the tree and come back, everyone line up and get ready to fight!"

Before the thing in the forest appeared, a boulder weighing hundreds of pounds was thrown over.

The boulder landed right at the location of the tree that blocked the way, and smashed the tree into two pieces at once.

Fortunately, Chen Fei and the others retreated in time, and they were only hit by some broken wood, and there was no major problem.

Everyone looked at the boulder and was shocked, and some were even planning how to escape in their hearts.

Chen Yongchang was keenly aware of the commotion in the team and shouted loudly.

"Have you forgotten the first few caravans?"

"Those who flee have only one way to die."

Then he pointed to the one-legged youkai who had just jumped out of the woods.

"I'll deal with this monster, and it's not worth mentioning."

Seeing what Chen Yongchang said, everyone felt a little at ease, and it was good to have a way to deal with it.

At this moment, the forest is quite lively, in addition to the mandrills that come out first, there are also half-man-tall tigers, herds of hyenas, and all kinds of strange beasts that cannot be named.

Although these beasts have not yet turned into demons, they all have one thing in common, that is, their eyes are red.

This shows that they are used to eating people, and maybe they can turn into demons at any time as long as they have an opportunity.

The mandrill was about a foot tall, and its two thick arms each held a large club as a weapon.

A one-eye, the size of a copper bell on his face, swept over everyone, probably feeling that this team was in the same danger as the previous caravan, so he let out a strange cry and waved his long arm at everyone.

After receiving the order, the beasts also seemed to have been unsealed, and one by one they let out a roar, staring cruelly at their respective targets, and rushed with all their might.

At this moment, the difference between the two groups of people in the caravan was unmistakable.

The caravan's original guards were close together, with shields in the front and spears in the back, forming a strong fortress.

And the outlaws recruited by the Quartet did not have such a tacit understanding, relying on each other in twos and threes, resisting the attacks of wild beasts.

Li Jiuan hung at the back of the team, with only the scholar Liu Fei and his maidservant Xiaoqing by his side.

"Take this talisman and stick it, don't drop it, hide behind."

Town character, one of the basic talismans recorded in the booklet given by the old way, has a wide range of uses, takes the meaning of the town house, and the demons and monsters dare not invade it.

Although it is not very powerful, when it is chosen, the beast will still instinctively avoid it first.

The Taoist priest patted the donkey on the back, and the green donkey was also quite smart, and he snorted at Li Jiu'an, and trotted all the way to hide next to the mule cart.

"Huh."

As soon as the green donkey ran, three hyenas with red eyes stared at Li Jiu'an.

Just let the green donkey run past them.

Obviously, human flesh is more attractive in their eyes.

The three hyenas were prostrate on the ground, baring their teeth, and surrounded Li Jiu'an in three directions, looking for an opportunity to attack.

Li Jiu'an's long sword was across his chest, pacing, and he was not in a hurry to make a move.

After a moment of confrontation, the hyena's patience ran out.

Let out a roar, and pounce in unison.

Li Jiu'an chuckled, unhurried, first took a step back to avoid the combined attack, and then the long sword turned to the left, and the hyena was pierced through the throat as if it had hit the sword itself.

Li Jiu'an, who was about to make persistent efforts, unexpectedly a sword light flashed next to him, and he cut down the remaining two hyenas.

"Good swordsmanship."

Although it was not the first time he had seen Xiaoqing's swordsmanship, Li Jiu still let out an exclamation in his heart.

This Quartet is not a good place, the combination of scholars and maidservants is easy to bully at first glance, not to mention that this scholar looks very rich, and he is not bad.

On the first day of departure, several people went to trouble with ridiculous excuses.

It's just that before the Dao Leader could make a move, he was knocked to the ground by Xiaoqing.

And then no one bothered them.

Elegant, smart, fast and accurate.

This is Li Jiuan's evaluation of Xiaoqing's swordsmanship.

And unlike Li Jiu'an, his swordsmanship is completely based on supernatural powers: swordsmanship, which has not been exercised itself.

And Xiaoqing, according to Liu Fei, was a small start, and he had practiced for more than ten years, in addition to his lack of experience, the practice of physical and technical skills can be said to be among the first-class.

This is also the reason why Liu Fei dares to run away from marriage and leave home, if it is only herself, she will not dare to come out.

"Be careful."

Li Jiuan saw that there were no more wild beasts around him, so he said a word to the two, and then moved forward with his sword.

At this time, it was only a moment before the monster beast raid, and it was already white-hot.

Guy because these beasts are not afraid of death, and there is only bloodthirsty madness in his red eyes.

"Roar."

The half-human-tall white tiger rushed into the caravan's position, rushing left and right, as if entering no man's land.

The giant snake several meters long was coiled on the ground, and in the middle of the snake's body was a strong man with only a head exposed, spitting scarlet snake letters, and a pair of vertical pupils were full of blood.

A deep scratch mark was imprinted on Wu Peng's chest, his lower body was bitten by at least three beasts, a jackal, a bobcat, and one he didn't know, but it didn't matter, he couldn't live anyway, under the effect of adrenaline, he raised the giant axe with all his might, his eyes were full of madness, and then swung it hard.

"Then die with me."

If you want to destroy, you must first make people mad.
