Chapter 45: Tired

The secret realm of the northwest is located in the middle of a mountain.

It's remote and sparsely populated, connected only by a few hunter-led paths.

But recently, I don't know why, and suddenly it became lively.

Groups of warriors appeared, and the path widened.

Just recently, a huge team suddenly appeared on the outskirts of the mountains, startling the surrounding warriors.

"Master Qiqi, in front of you are the mountains where the secret realm is located, and the horses are no longer able to travel, so you need to change the human seat. ”

A servant knelt in front of the huge carriage and said cautiously.

"Got it, it's really verbose, by the way, what's going on with my little tiger that hasn't kept up?"

The third prince got out of the car and sat down again on a wooden chair lifted by two big men.

"Master Qiqi, I just received the news that Lord Hu was besieged by a group of Diao people and has unfortunately died. ”

As soon as the servant finished speaking, he felt the temperature around his body suddenly and inexplicably drop, and he quickly knelt on the ground and bowed his head.

"How did you get this information?"

"Master Qiqi, some of the guards have escaped, hurry up and come back to report!"

"Kill them all!"

The third prince said such a sentence lightly, which decided the life of the person who escaped death.

The faces of everyone present did not change, but no one said anything, as if they knew the end.

"Yes!"

————————————————

It had been two days since Ji Wusheng came out, and because he was in a hurry, he had never come down on horseback, constantly changing horses.

Fortunately, his body is very strong, and the horses in this world are also exceptionally strong, able to withstand such a fast horse.

However, along the way, Ji Wusheng could hardly see a living figure on the official road.

Only a few scavenging vultures were still nibbling on the unknown carcass.

Ay!

Ji Wusheng sighed lightly, a little unbearable to look at directly.

During this journey day and night, Ji Wusheng's first feeling was the horror of nature.

He used to think that the drought in the northwest was just a result of relatively little rainfall and a reduced crop in the field.

But when he came here, he realized that he was wrong.

The sky is blazing hot, the earth is cracked, and the water in the land has long since evaporated, let alone the farmer, not even some drought-tolerant plants can survive.

Ji Wusheng originally wanted to go to some abandoned villages to rest, but when he found a dry well, he never went again.

In this kind of disaster, all the weaknesses in human nature are infinitely magnified, and the abandoned villages are full of tragedies that are unbearable to look at.

At this time, Ji Wusheng was finally able to understand why those homeless people near Ji Wusheng left their hometowns, even if they had to endure the white eyes, they had to go to Ji City.

And Ji Wusheng heard that the weather is much better now than in previous months.

But everything around it still felt as if it was in a flaming mountain, and not a trace of water could be preserved.

Fortunately, this time, under Xiaoqiu's strong request, he brought enough water, which saved him from the dilemma of looking for water around.

But this water can't sustain him for much time, so he can only keep moving forward.

However, when he arrived at the mountains near the Northwest Secret Realm after a lot of hardships, he was a little dumbfounded after just a moment of joy.

Although the mountains here have more green vitality than the previous places, most of these greens are withered and yellow, and only a few green shoots are still growing stubbornly.

The reason why Ji Wusheng was stunned was because the mountains here were too big.

In the distance, there are hundreds of mountain peaks that meander and twist, covering an area of no less than 100,000 square kilometers.

Ji Wusheng only had a rough map in his hand, and it was not easy to find a way out of so many mountain peaks.

And it was the first time he had come, and there was still a lot of food, but there was not much water, only three water bags left.

Just when Ji Wusheng was at a loss, there was a sudden sound of footsteps not far away, which shook his spirit.

Being able to come to the mountains near the secret realm at this time, I'm afraid the purpose is the same as him.

However, when Ji Wusheng saw the appearance of the two clearly, his brows couldn't help frowning.

I saw one of them with a horizontal face, and the fat on his body seemed to be a brown bear, constantly shaking between walks.

The other person was thin and thin, especially the face, which could be said to be skinny and bone.

And the similarity between the two is that they both have similar tattoos on their faces, and just by looking at them, they can feel a fierce temperament rushing to their faces.

When the two of them saw Ji Wusheng, their eyes showed a burst of surprise.

I saw that the fat man among them rushed directly towards him, and the powerful force set off a gust of wind and sand.

And the thin man tapped his feet on the ground a few times, his body was as light as a swallow, and in just a few breaths, he came to his eyes.

Ji Wusheng crossed his arms and stood in place as if unmoved.

Although the body style of these two people is not common, their cultivation should not have reached the realm of a grandmaster, and Ji Wusheng has such a calm confidence.

However, the two of them didn't pay attention to Ji Wusheng, but ran directly to Ji Wusheng's horse, grabbed the water bag and drank it in a big gulp.

Soon the two large-capacity hydration bladders were empty.

Seeing that they still drank the last water bag in one go, Ji Wusheng hurriedly walked over and quickly snatched the water bag back.

"You!"

The thin man was instantly furious, and just wanted to get angry at Ji Wusheng, but was stopped by the fat man next to him.

"This little brother is really sorry, our two brothers are from Renjiabao in the southwest, I am Ren Fengliang, he is Ren Fengxi. ”

I saw that the fat man in front of him hugged his fist at Ji Wusheng, and then spoke.

"Our two brothers really underestimated the risk of this trip to the northwest this time, the food and water are not very sufficient, don't tell you the joke, our two brothers have been hungry for a day and a night, but fortunately we met you. ”

The fat man Ren Fengliang saw that Ji Wusheng did not speak, and still explained kindly.

When Ji Wusheng heard this, the sulkness in his heart decreased a lot.

Tampering with food without the permission of others is itself an act of stealing, but considering the special circumstances, it is somewhat understandable.

The thin man Ren Feng is evil, he seems to be a little green, and his temper comes and goes quickly.

Seeing that Ji Wusheng's face was a little better, he hurriedly walked up and patted his chest.

"Little brother, you are also here to hunt for treasures, you are lucky to meet us today, and you will enter the secret realm later, and our two brothers will keep you safe"

Ji Wusheng just wanted to refute that he didn't need the protection of the two of you, but then he thought about it for a while, and then said with a smile.

"It's hard work!"
