Chapter 17: Before Dawn

The shadow of the night has always been there, and everyone in the inner warehouse of the flying boat of the Donglin caravan is uneasy, even though the old man has repeatedly said in advance that everyone should keep enough rest while remaining vigilant, but how can these people rest well.

Of course, not everyone is so uneasy, Xiao Ning is an exception, he returned to his inner warehouse early and fell asleep. He slept deeply, because the first day's analysis of the situation showed that the shadow that roamed in the dark would not attack tonight.

Although Xiao Ning didn't know what means the other party had used, he could hide during the day and only appear at night, but he knew that the shadow in the dark night was very cautious, since he was cautious, he would definitely not risk attacking until he figured out the situation on his side.

Just as Xiao Ning speculated, nothing happened this night, but Xiao Ning still woke up before dawn, and let the shadow of the dark night leave on its own after the first rays of sunlight appeared at dawn.

Seeing the shadow of that night disappear, Xiao Ning's brows furrowed, because he felt that the shadow of the night he saw today seemed to be different from the first time he had seen it, and as for what was the difference, even he couldn't understand.

The shadow of the dark night disappeared, and Xiao Ning also left the deck, returned to his inner warehouse, and began to heal while cultivating after taking a few pills.

He didn't tell what he had discovered, the protectors in the inner warehouse were already nervous enough, and he didn't want to increase the burden on these people anymore. In addition, he was not sure how the shadow of the dark night he saw today was different from what he had seen before, so this was not the best time to talk about it, no matter what way he thought about it.

"You seem to wake up earlier today than yesterday!"

When Xiao Ning's cultivation was over, when he slowly opened his eyes, a person walked into the warehouse, and this person was naturally Dao Lao.

"You always have to adapt to the new rules and prepare in advance!" Xiao Ning said.

"Yes, it's time to adapt to the new rules!" As an old Jianghu, how could the old knife not understand Xiao Ning's thoughts.

Generally speaking, dawn is the time when people are most settled, and raiding at this time is obviously the best choice, and it is precisely because of this that Xiao Ning will wake up before dawn.

"Dao Lao, I found something, but I can't be sure!" Xiao Ning pondered for a while, but decided to tell Dao Lao the doubts in his heart, he knew that Dao Lao was an old man, even if he knew the news, he would not be as calm as others.

Seeing Xiao Ning's serious and somewhat solemn expression, Dao Lao's brows also furrowed, and he said to Xiao Ning: "Brother Xiao, if you have anything to say, did you find something?"

From Xiao Ning's expression, Dao Lao faintly sensed something, and at the same time aroused his curiosity, wondering what strange things Xiao Ning had discovered.

"Today I watched the shadow in the dark night leave, and I had a strange feeling in my heart, that is, the shadow of the dark night that monitored us the night before did not seem to be the same as the first time we saw it, although it looked almost the same, but I felt different!" Xiao Ning said his feelings to Dao Lao.

"Hmmm......"

Although Xiao Ning's discovery was not confirmed, it still made Dao Lao's heart sink, and his expression became solemn.

He didn't get up as early as Xiao Ning, so he didn't see the moment when the dark night shadow left, but he felt that Xiao Ning's feeling was probably correct in this matter, but if Xiao Ning's feeling was really correct, then the situation they were facing now would not be good.

"Dao Lao, why don't you join me tomorrow morning to take a look? Maybe we can find out what is different between the shadows in that dark night by then!" Xiao Ning looked up at Dao Laodao.

"It's okay, I also want to see what that hidden head and tail wants to do!" After listening to Xiao Ning's suggestion, Dao Lao nodded slightly, and agreed to go with Xiao Ning to see the shadow in the dark night.

As the day before, there was still nothing to do during the day, and the people in the cabin were already nervous and exhausted, but they still did not dare to sleep.

"Let's rest, everyone, I guarantee that nothing will happen during the day!" Dao Lao walked into the inner warehouse, and Xiao Ning also followed into the spacious inner warehouse.

"Knife senior, are you telling the truth, what if they attack?"

"Everyone, if you don't have a good rest, how can you have the strength to fight? When the time comes, you will only be killed, so we must have a good rest, even if we want to fight, we must have enough spirits!" Xiao Ning spoke, he was the youngest, but no one would doubt what he said, even those who were recruited later to protect the merchants, they also learned about Xiao Ning's deeds under the introduction of their predecessors.

Xiao Ning can not take it seriously, but with the realm of true immortals, in the face of the siege of many true immortals at the same time, he can still judge one after another and successfully accept the attacks of the golden immortals, this kind of record is rare in the immortal world. Of course, if they knew that Xiao Ning had killed a true immortal when he was in the Dao Law Realm, maybe they would be even more shocked.

Immortals are immortals after all, even the weakest true immortals are several times stronger than mortals who have not survived the Flying Immortal Tribulation, and slashing immortals with the body of a mortal will definitely cause a sensation.

Xiao Ning's previous performance told all the protectors that he was a very survivable person, and viability required two prerequisites, one was strength and the other was judgment, and people who were strong in both were strong in survivability.

"Since you say so, then I'll take a break!"

Xiao Ning's words still have an effect, and they questioned Dao Lao's words, because Dao Lao is a golden immortal, and a golden immortal is always high above the true immortal. And Xiao Ning is different, he is a true immortal, a powerful true immortal, he is not afraid, and others have no reason to be afraid, all these protectors closed their eyes and began to rest.

Night fell again, and the shadows of the night came again. This time, everyone was still nervous, but they could rest.

Before dawn, Xiao Ning and Dao Lao walked out of the inner warehouse at the same time, and arrived in front of the deck of the flying boat.

The shadows of the dark night appeared and disappeared from time to time, but this time Xiao Ning could be sure of his thoughts.

"It's a little different from the shadow we saw for the first time, shaped like a flying boat, but it shouldn't be the same flying boat. Dao Lao spoke, thinking the same as what Xiao Ning said before.

"This is not what I saw yesterday!" Xiao Ning looked at the dark shadow in the night sky in the distance and said his answer.

"Not good!"

Xiao Ning and Dao Lao spoke almost at the same time, although the first light of dawn had already appeared, but Xiao Ning and Dao Lao felt that this light was covered by something.
