Chapter 758: The Treacherous Wilderness

After evening, night fell quietly, and the whole of Afana was already dark, except for the rich villages and towns, which were lit at the beginning, and the terrifying sounds of birds and beasts gradually sounded in the wilderness;

A pair of eyes that shimmered with a ghostly light also began to wander in the forest from time to time.

At such a time, of course, ordinary solo travelers do not have the courage to continue trekking in the wilderness, but the danger of this kind of journey is naturally nothing to Zhang Lisheng.

The only trouble is that after several evolutions, he has been able to perfectly control his divine power, and once he reins in the aura of the strong, even the most sensitive beasts directly cannot find clues, so that from time to time he will encounter fierce beasts that treat it as a delicious dinner.

Once or twice, he could still endure it, but when he was attacked for the fifth time in just two hours, Zhang Lisheng finally couldn't hold back the irritability in his heart.

Surrounded by a group of wild beasts about three meters long and looking between wolves and dogs, he changed the way he had just driven away the predators who were not able to do anything, so he ordered the way he did, kicking and tearing his hands, and in three or two minutes, he killed all the beasts in the herd.

After chasing one or two hundred meters and smashing the skull of the last beast, Zhang Lisheng sniffed the heavy smell of blood in the air, frowned, and muttered: "It's really troublesome, how simple is the food chain of the 'Enamel World';

Carnivores' survival resources are scarce, and after dark, they have encountered several attacks within a few kilometers, and this is still on the main road, if you get on...". As he was muttering to himself, he suddenly heard a faint sound of 'da-da-da...' on the road ahead, similar to the crunch sound of a horse's hooves falling to the ground, so he closed his mouth in confusion and looked in the direction from which the sound came.

A few seconds later, Zhang Lisheng clearly saw that a short 'fire snake' in the west suddenly appeared, floating and swimming in the night sky.

"There is a crossroads ahead, and a team of horses is hurrying with torches. He was slightly stunned at first, then he figured out the reason and pondered for a moment. A shallow smile appeared on his face. "If you were with them, it would have been a lot less troublesome.

Also, maybe you will meet Tina's followers, and you will be able to learn about her teachings then...", unconsciously on the right path. Hurry forward.

The distance of three or four hundred meters is fleeting. Come to the spacious intersection. Zhang Lisheng hid on the side of the road, and only walked out quietly until the 'fire snake' approached.

The procession looked inconspicuous from a distance, but it was actually three or four hundred meters long. In the middle, there are dozens of huge animal wagons, and at the beginning and tail are samurai wearing different styles of armor and riding on various beasts.

As a sentry, the two eyes at the front of the convoy were diamond-shaped, and the light cavalry with a faint red light that flickered in the twilight was almost the same as some ferocious beasts, and found Zhang Lisheng hiding on the side of the road, pretending to be in a hurry, and immediately changed his face, cautiously tightened the reins, strangled the crotch and rode the beast, and at the same time let out a whistle of 'shh' in his mouth that resounded through the night sky.

As the alarm sounded, the long convoy slowly stopped, and at the same time, the two sentries bent their bows and pointed their sharp arrows at the gray-robed man who was faintly visible on the side of the road, and shouted: "Who dares to stop the convoy of the 'Black Feather Goose Merchant Group'." ”

"Do you need to be so cautious, how dangerous is the wilderness here..."Surprised by the team's exaggerated reaction, Zhang Lisheng muttered silently, took off his cloth hat, covered his hands in his sleeves, looked harmless, strolled to the place where the fire could reach, and said loudly: "Please rest assured samurai, I am just an ordinary traveler who has traveled thousands of miles to hone his will through hard work.

I had never heard of the name of the 'Black Feather Goose Business Group', let alone any evil intentions.

You see, I only occupy an insignificant part of the side of the road on such a wide road, how can I talk about blocking your way?"

"Ordinary traveler," the sentry on the right froze for a moment, then his nose twitched, and his hands, which were already eager to bow and arrow, unconsciously became even harder, and roared loudly: "Hmph, what kind of ordinary traveler would walk alone in the wilderness in the middle of the night, and he still has the smell of blood that can stun people.

Honestly, boy, you're a spy for some of the bandits, and if you confess, I'll probably spare your life. ”

"Mr. Sentinel, do you think that the spies of the bandit group will stand in front of you without riding anything," Zhang Lisheng smiled and said loudly, "As for the smell of blood on my body, it is because there are too many wild beasts who want to treat me as their dinner tonight, and they die under my fists instead, and this power is also the reason why I dare to travel alone in the middle of the night." ”

"Hmm..."Hearing the gray-robed man's explanation, and then looking at his calm and honest appearance, the sentry showed a hesitant expression on his face, but he still didn't move the arrow, and when he hesitated, a loud voice sounded behind him, "Edofa, it's the seventh day, you're still delaying time, what's going on ahead?"

"Lord Eurica," the sentry hurriedly tossed the difficult question to the chief, "it's not that I'm delaying it casually, it's a bit weird, can you take a look?"

"Oh," I heard the outpost say this from a distance, guarding a truck at the head of the convoy, holding a black war hammer with a hammer head like a hedgehog in his hand, wearing heavy armor, a strong and tall man drove the mount, galloped to the sentry's side, glanced coldly at Zhang Lisheng standing in the firelight, and asked again without turning his head: "What's wrong?"

"My lord, that's the case..."The sentry hurriedly explained the matter, and finally said hesitantly: "I am also an old man in the escort team of the merchant group, but I have never met such a strange person once.

Let's say he's a spying of the bandits, he really doesn't look like it, but if this person is really just an ordinary traveler, I don't even believe it..."

"What the hell does this have to do with our caravan," the Knight of the Heavy Hammer coldly interrupted the sentry, "just shoot the arrow in your hand if you think it's strange, we don't have time to waste on the road now." ”

"Shoot, shoot..."Even though he was a business of killing, killing a stranger on the side of the road for no reason because of suspicion still made it difficult for the sentry to accept, and he couldn't help but stammer.

When Zhang Lisheng heard this, he also frowned, pulled his hands out of his sleeves, and muttered to himself: "I wanted to save some trouble for the night, but I didn't expect it to be more troublesome."

However, I like to do things the most, 'people don't offend me, I don't offend people, if people offend me, I will pay it back a hundred times', this convoy has hundreds of people, and killing all of them is enough to feast the surrounding beasts, and it is not too much of a loss if you think about it carefully...", clenched his fists, and waited for the sentry to shoot arrows, and immediately started killing.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, another knight rode from the back of the convoy to the front, looking nervous and excited, and asked: "What's the matter, Captain Eurica, did you really meet the people of the bandit group?"

"Haven't you slept yet, Baroness Snow," the Hammer Knight's cold face suddenly became gentle, and he said with a smile, "Edorfa is wrong, there are no spies of the bandit group, just a traveler who travels alone. ”

"Isn't it dangerous to travel alone at such a late hour," the later female knight showed a contradictory expression of disappointment and reassurance on her face, but she still said kindly: "It is better to ask him to join our convoy for the time being, and leave after dawn." ”

"I think so, too, Baroness. After being stunned for a moment, Eureka immediately nodded, looked at the gray-robed man not far away a few times, and turned his head to order in a loud voice: "Moscut, come and take this strange gentleman to the car where the handymen are sitting to rest for the night." ”

"Yes, Eureka-sama. One of the heavy hammer knight's subordinates with a sword at his waist hurried over when he heard the order, and only bowed respectfully to the female knight to say hello, and without looking at the two sentries, he guided Zhang Lisheng, who was speechless, through many panicked and puzzled eyes, to the middle of the convoy, in front of a huge animal-powered cart.

After that, the cavalryman with the sword at his waist said in an unkind tone, "Come in, boy, if you get out of this car before dawn, be careful with your head, and be careful not to let the pig iron break your ribs." He opened the wooden door of the carriage, stared at the gray-robed man condescendingly, and pouted.

The carriage was densely packed with hundreds of square ingots of metal, and the only place where people could settle down was a few dirty thin felt blankets, topped with iron ingots.

"Oh, this environment is really bad..."Zhang Lisheng muttered in a low voice, jumped into the carriage with light steps, covered the door, sat cross-legged, looked at a few servants of the merchant group who were lying on the side, half-sitting and half-lying, and said casually and politely: "Hello everyone, I am Li Sheng, a warrior who travels with asceticism and hone his will. ”

In any civilization and era, merchants sell goods for profit, and a very important common point is timeliness, and in the backward world of ordinary commercial means of transportation such as 'Enamel', the biggest embodiment of this timeliness is that they travel day and night, without rest, so the servants of the 'Black Feather Goose Merchant Group' are all relatively rich young people.

They serve the wealthy merchants, although the work is hard, but the pay is not cheap, the life is far better than the ordinary citizens, peasants, and they feel superior, but the lowly status of the servants makes their position embarrassing, and their hearts are conceited and inferior, hearing the words of the god Wu Li, they look at each other, and lie down again as if they did not hear.

Zhang Lisheng saw that no one was paying attention to himself and didn't say anything more, shrugged and smiled, leaned his back against the wall of the carriage, closed his eyes, and then he felt the iron ingot under his buttocks tremble slightly, and the car began to move forward slowly and set off on the road again.
