Chapter 143: Why?
Hearing the mad lion's questioning, Lin Fan asked a little speechlessly, "Don't the mad brother believe me?"
"That's not true, but after listening to Brother Lin Fan's words, I don't know why, I'm full of energy now", the wild lion at this moment, his face was full of obscenity, which made Lin Dashao's egg hurt.
didn't continue to whisper, after all, there were still people waiting for them, and after the two returned to the team, Xiaoyu asked with some curiosity: "Brother Fan, what did you just say to the mad lion?"
Looking at the expression on Xiaoyu's face beside him, Lin Fan had already guessed a seven, seven, eighty, eight, and eight, Xiaoyu 100% thought that she was talking about her with the mad lion, and said helplessly: "I didn't mention you with the mad lion just now, we just talked about some private matters."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu's face obviously showed a trace of loss, and said, "Brother Fan, do you really have a way to make the mad lion accept me?"
"Xiaoyu, do you know why the Wild Lion never accepts you?"
"Of course I want to know, Brother Fan, tell me quickly."
Looking at the surprise on the girl's face in front of him, Lin Fan finally decided to tell Xiaoyu about the matter, and said, "Brother Crazy, it's been a day's journey, let's stay and rest for a while."
Nodding, the mad lion didn't hesitate at all, and said to everyone: "Everyone has been on the road for a day, now rest in place first", and then the mad lion walked to several members of the mad lion mercenary group, and whispered: "You watch Gongsun Zheng closely, don't let him leave without permission."
Lin Fan took Xiaoyu to a secluded place and said, "Xiaoyu, let me ask you, are you from the War Sect?"
Hearing the words of the young man in front of him, Xiao Yu showed a trace of surprise on his face, nodded, and said without the slightest hesitation: "I am indeed a member of the War Sect, and the War Sect I belong to is called the Tianxuan War Sect."
Hearing that Xiaoyu was actually a person from the Tianxuan War Sect, Lin Fan counted them, since he knew about the Ziyang War Sect, the Tianxuan War Sect was the fifth War Sect he knew, these five War Sects were the Ziyang War Sect, the Jiuyang War Sect, the Painting Sect, the Qin Sect and the Tianxuan War Sect.
As if he had guessed something, Xiaoyu said with some uncertainty: "Brother Fan, according to your meaning, the reason why the mad lion has been rejecting me is for the sake of my identity?"
Nodding, since he has decided to tell Xiaoyu everything, then he will no longer hide anything, and said: "I have just talked to the mad lion, and the mad lion has been rejecting you for three years, the reason is because of your identity, after all, you are simply two people from different worlds, and I believe that the people behind you will not agree to the two of you being together."
"Brother Fan, I believe my father will agree."
Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Lin Fan's heart moved, and he asked, "Xiao Yu, your father is the sect master of the Tianxuan War Sect?"
"Well, although my father is the sect master of the Tianxuan War Sect, he is very kind, and he never asks me about finding a boyfriend, so the mad lion's worries are superfluous, Brother Fan, please tell the mad lion the original thing, you don't want to see that we have lovers and can't end up married."
"In that case, I'll talk to the mad lion later", hearing Xiaoyu's words, Lin Fan was also really happy for the two of them, after all, he also hoped that the mad lion and Xiaoyu could become a couple.
When the two of them came back, they found that the face of the mad lion was gloomy and fearful, and there were two corpses lying on the ground, and his heart froze, Lin Fan knew that something must have happened when he was talking to Xiaoyu just now, and then looked at the figure of Gongsun Zheng around, Lin Fan had basically guessed some clues.
"Brother Lin Fan came back just in time, Gongsun Zheng, the loser, actually ran away, and killed two of my people, if I see him, I have to break his body into pieces."
Sure enough, hearing the words of the mad lion, Lin Fan already knew the general situation of the matter, Gongsun Zheng must have taken advantage of his and the mad lion's absence to kill the two guards of him, and then took the opportunity to escape, after all, in the entire mercenary group, except for him and the mad lion, Gongsun Zheng's strength is okay.
However, Lin Fan was not as angry as the mad lion, but surprisingly calm, because he knew that Gongsun was running away as a sign that someone would soon come to their trouble, which was enough to threaten their safety, because neither the Sun family nor the Yue family was able to deal with it now.
You must know that the Moon Demon, as the general of the Dark Empire, is in charge of seventy percent of the soldiers and horses of the Dark Empire, but to put it this way, even the emperor of the Dark Empire has to give three points when he sees the Moon Demon General.
Moreover, the Dark Empire is the most powerful among the four empires, not to mention a small mad lion mercenary group, even if the other three empires provoke the Yue family, I am afraid that the Moon Demon General will wave his troops, and now with the addition of a powerful Gongsun family, it can be described as a strong alliance.
"Brother Mad Brother, we can't go to the Fire Dragon Valley according to the original route now, do you know if there is any other way to go to the Fire Dragon Valley?" Lin Fan knew very well in his heart that as long as Gongsun Zheng returned to the family and told the Yue family and the Gongsun family about his stay in the Crazy Lion Mercenary Group, then the two major families would definitely follow, and with their current strength, it was simply not enough to confront the two major families head-on.
What Lin Fan could think of, the mad lion also thought of it, and his face was not only angry, but also a little worried, after all, he was the leader of the mad lion mercenary group, and he had to be responsible for the mercenary group, and the strength of the mad lion mercenary group was not the opponent of the two families at all.
Of course, he knew what Lin Fan meant best, and said: "As far as I know, there are a total of two days to go to Dragon Fruit, in addition to the one we take, there is another one, but the other road is too difficult to walk, and no one dares to take another road easily."
"Brother Mad Brother, now we are in a dilemma, so for the sake of today, we have to take another path, if Gongsun Zheng and the two major families catch up, then we will all die here."
"In that case, let's go the other way."
"Commander, I want to quit the mercenary group".
"Commander, I want to quit too."
"Why?", hearing that everyone actually chose to leave the mercenary group at this moment, the face of the mad lion was extremely pale, what does this mean, it shows that he, the head of the regiment, has failed too much, and no one is willing to live and die with him at the moment of life and death.
Regardless of whether the mad lion agreed or not, everyone left without saying a word, leaving only the mad lion, Lin Fan and Xiaoyu, and the two corpses lying on the ground.
He smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Brother Lin Fan, don't you look down on me very much? I think I'm the leader of a dignified mercenary group, but in the end I don't have a brother, I think you must look down on me, even I look down on myself."
"Wrong, mad brother, I think you should feel lucky."
"Brother Lin Fan, are you laughing at me?"
"No, mad brother, imagine that now that they are leaving you, you can see their faces clearly in advance, in case you wait until the time of life and death to leave you, wouldn't it be a dead end for you to be distracted at that time?"
"Oh, Brother Lin Fan's words are not unreasonable, regardless of them, leaving the mercenary group is their loss, after this is done, I will go back and recruit some people, and those who want to enter the Crazy Lion Mercenary Group are waiting in line."
There was some amusement in his heart, Lin Fan didn't say much, and asked: "Brother Mad Brother, where is the other way to Fire Dragon Valley, we must rush to Fire Dragon Valley as soon as possible, and finally get the dragon fruit before the arrival of the two major families."
"You come with me", and then the three of them went to the opposite place of the original route, as the mad lion said, the other route to the Fire Dragon Valley is indeed not taken by people, except for the rugged mountain road, the whole road is full of potholes, at this speed, it will take at least eight days to reach the Fire Dragon Valley, which is a full five days later than the original route.
In August, it was hot, the whole earth was tested by the sun like a ripe sweet potato, even if he walked on the ground with his shoes on, he felt hot, and he didn't walk much, the wild lion took off his upper body directly, and he was afraid that there was a woman next to him, Lin Fan just took off his clothes outside, but even so, the three of them still felt extremely hot.
"Brother Lin Fan, how do you feel, no one has ever been willing to take this road, except for those who really have no way, and there are some outlaws, others will not choose at all."
Until now, Lin Fan finally knew why the mad lion was very reluctant to take this road just now, but if there were some ways, he would not take this road, not to mention whether he could feel the destination, maybe he would die here halfway through.
"Brother Crazy, I think we should find a place to rest first, Xiaoyu seems to be a little unbearable."
The mad lion is a senior war division, although Lin Fan is only an intermediate war division, but in terms of his own strength, he does not belong to a junior war division at all, but Xiaoyu is only a junior war division, and she is also a girl, how can she stand such a ghost road and such a ghost weather.
Glancing at the girl beside him, the mad lion's eyes obviously showed a trace of distress, but he didn't show it, although Lin Fan had already conveyed the words to him on the way, but in the mad lion's heart, he thought that the reason why the sect master of the Tianxuan War Sect was gentle was because of his own daughter, and for an outsider, who also wanted to be a toad and wanted to eat swan meat, how could he be gentle.
So the mad lion finally decided to continue to reject this relationship, there is only one reason, that is, he doesn't want to hurt himself, and he also doesn't want to hurt Xiaoyu, so along the way, the mad lion has always been lukewarm to Xiaoyu, not even a friend, which makes Xiaoyu feel sad and at the same time complains to Lin Dashao, making Lin Dashao angry, the three of them did not continue to hurry, and finally found a cooler cave to temporarily go in to escape the heat.
