Chapter 363: The mission isn't over yet
Wang Lun and his party bumped into the secret meeting between Sunset City and Houtu City, Wang Lun sent the hidden expert Hu Ying to inquire about the news, but the news came back, but Hu Ying was blocked by the formation set up by these two groups of people and couldn't get out, it is also strange to say, these two groups of people are basically not cultivators, and they can still meet safely in this forbidden place where fierce beasts are rampant, there can only be one way, that is, there are high-ranking people guarding them, but like this situation, it should generally be set up that kind of magic circle that is not allowed to enter, But this master actually set up a magic circle that can't be released, if there is really a fierce beast that enters it by mistake, I am afraid that the people in it will be more than lucky. Even Wang Lun and they all know that if they set it up like this, once there is a problem, it will definitely be more than lucky, then it is impossible for the setter not to know, then there is only one reason why he set it up like this, that is, he is absolutely confident in his own strength, he is completely sure that even if a fierce beast comes in, he can kill it at the first time, and it will not affect others.
It stands to reason that such a powerful character must at least be in the Feather Transformation Realm, but even if there is such a person, Hu Ying can still spread the news from the world, which means that this master is already confident to the point of conceit, so he will relax his vigilance internally, giving Hu Ying a chance to take advantage of. The place where Hu Ying was blocked was even more hidden, that is, inside the move of his ice transfer, in which, even the powerhouses of the Feather Transformation Realm could not detect it, because Hu Ying was not in this dimension at all, but in another parallel dimension, but after all, he still couldn't bypass this layer of magic array. However, Hu Ying is safe for the time being, and Wang Lun is not entangled in the safety of Hu Ying's side, what he has to do now is to let the whole team get out of the forbidden land while there is still a period of time before it gets dark, the original plan is no longer possible, so changes must be made, fortunately, the time is still early, if you hurry up, there is no problem to get out of the forbidden land.
But then the problem came, that is, because there was a master here, then Wang Lun and they couldn't casually open up their momentum, that is, they had to restrain part of their momentum in order to avoid attracting attention, and it was the other party's master who felt that it couldn't cause danger at all, so he wouldn't come over to check the situation, but if the momentum was reined, then there would be a problem, that is, the fierce beasts also couldn't feel the danger here, which meant that the attacks would increase, no, Just when Wang Lun and the others walked out of the forbidden land, they had already dealt with five attacks, and the last harvest of the fierce beast corpses was only two, the remaining three although the battle, but the fierce beast's reaction was very fast, as soon as they fought, they found that there was a problem here, so they didn't continue to fight at all and fled directly, the two fierce beasts who died seemed to be a little stupid, or they were extremely confident in their own abilities, so they were killed by Gong Xiangdong, although they were confident, But it didn't cause any harm to Wang Lun and them, the only consequence was that Gong Xiangdong was a little tired, and nothing else. (Sometimes it's a good thing to have self-confidence, but it's very easy to die if you have too much self-confidence, and this is useful for both humans and animals.) )
Wang Lun saw that the sky had darkened, and Hu Ying came with news that the magic circle here had been removed, and it was estimated that it had been negotiated, Wang Lun hurriedly found an extremely hidden place to hide, he had just hid here, and the joint personnel of Houtu City came to the original location of Wang Lun and them, which also coincided, Wang Lun and the road they chose out of the forbidden land was the same as that chosen by the people of Houtu City, Wang Lun not only found this group of joint personnel, but also found the mysterious master who was responsible for their safety, Sure enough, just as Wang Lun guessed, this master is already much higher than Wang Lun and Gong Xiangdong, who have the highest cultivation in them, even if Wang Lun and Gong Xiangdong join forces, they are not his opponents at all, and in the face of such an opponent, there is only one thing to do, that is, to restrain his breath, try not to make him feel that he will be a potential threat here, so he will not come down to check the situation, besides, Wang Lun is now in armor, if he is discovered, does it make sense? What? Why didn't Wang Lun take off his armor? He wanted to take it off, but did he have any clothes to wear besides the armor? Don't forget, the storage ring on Wang Lun's hand is not the one he has always carried, that ring is now in the hand of Hu Ying, who is rushing here, and his current ring is a spare, and there is nothing in it!
But fortunately, this mysterious master is already a little conceited about his own strength, coupled with Wang Lun's restrained breath, although this master also discovered Wang Lun and them, but in his opinion, Wang Lun and they are just ordinary people, and they can't threaten the people on their side at all, so they didn't stay here and pay too much attention, so the group of people from Houtu City passed through Wang Lun's location and continued to rush to Houtu City to hand over the order, and Hu Ying was already out of the forbidden land at this time, After asking Wang Lun about their specific location, they also rushed here to meet Wang Lun. Now Wang Lun asked Hu Ying for a suit of civilian clothes, and then put away the general's armor, and now they looked like a caravan came to do business, and the herald also changed into civilian clothes. They found a suitable place to camp nearby and stayed, preparing to act early the next morning, but this thick earth city did not attach importance to the vigilance of the forbidden land, perhaps as Wang Lun guessed, they thought that this forbidden land was very dangerous, fierce beasts were rampant, and ordinary people were unwilling to set foot in the forbidden land even if the army was forced to do so, so the forbidden land was quite safe.
Wang Lun and their rest this night was quite good, there were no fierce beasts coming to harass them at all, let alone fierce beasts, even wild beasts, don't forget that they don't exude momentum now, that is to say, in the eyes of fierce beasts and wild beasts, they are just a meal on the plate, and the only reason why they have not been attacked is that there are no fierce beasts and wild beasts in this vicinity. As for why there is no Wang Lun, they don't think too much, anyway, it's not the city they are in, and whether there is or not is not in the way at all. Early the next morning, they buried the pot and cooked, and when they had finished eating, they were on the road, they were almost ready to complete their task, as long as they were out of the traverse mountains, they and the heralds could no longer care about this delayed carriage, but until now Wang Lun did not know what was on this carriage.
The speed on this road was not slow, and they also encountered the soldiers patrolling the Thick Earth City, and then Wang Lun and they noticed that this Thick Earth City did not care about the direction of the forbidden land at all, on the contrary, they still had a lot of vigilance in this direction, but it was not set up next to the edge of the forbidden land as Wang Lun imagined, but it was set up at a distance from the forbidden land, and the rest place that Wang Lun and they chose was exactly the position in this distance. So it makes sense that no soldiers came to check at night.
Along the way, Wang Lun and the others met no less than five waves of soldiers, and the questions they asked were surprisingly consistent, so Wang Lun, as the team leader, also said the same answer no less than five times, but fortunately, no wave of soldiers wanted to check the carriage, just asked as usual. Wang Lun and they soon went out of the traverse mountain range, and when they set foot on the land of Houtu City, Wang Lun's first reaction was hot, quite hot, just like a fire, what caught their eyes was the boundless desert, as well as the merchants and camel caravans walking on the desert, now this time is the time for the caravans to act, they have to take the specialties of Houtu City to various cities to exchange for what they need, don't you say, there are really specialties in this endless desert, and it is not a cactus, as for what, It's up to you to guess, anyway, Wang Lun doesn't have the heart to observe what the specialties here are.
They took the carriage to a more remote place, where only occasional people passed by, and where there was no one, they would attract the attention of others. After Wang Lun and the others arrived here, Gong Xiangdong was arranged to guard the surroundings, and then Wang Lun said to the herald: "I have now brought the carriage to the ground of this Houtu City according to Marshal Zhao's instructions, and from now on the safety of this carriage is no longer under my control, but I will still stay here for a while, and I will leave here after you have all dealt with it, and I will act as your escort for a while." ”
The herald smiled, only to see him take out a scroll from the inside of his jacket, and then opened the scroll and said to Wang Lun: "The city lord has an order, and the person who guards the carriage will be under the command of the personnel on the carriage from now on, but anyone who violates the order will be killed!" ”
This Wang Lun chuckled when he heard it, this is obviously a trap, this Marshal Zhao only told himself to protect the safety of the carriage, so that the carriage can return to the city to hand over the order when it reaches Houtu City smoothly, why is there another city lord order now? And it seems that this city lord's order has been prepared early, it seems that the city lord is not only wary of Marshal Zhao, but also does not fully trust himself, the general Longwei who he personally canonized.
