Chapter 22: Black Wind Village
I don't know how long it has been, and I don't know how many rises and falls of the sun and moon.
"Hmm!" a low groan, as if from the sky.
"Are you awake?"
Hearing the sound ringing in his ears, Ling Fan opened his eyes, looked around, and found that he was still in the dense forest, with a burly strong man sitting beside him, and there was a fire not far away, and there were four or five people sitting there chatting in a low voice next to the fire.
"Am I alive?"
Ling Fan was puzzled for a while, but the hearty voice of the strong man beside him immediately came out again.
"Haha, little brother, of course you are still alive, speaking of which you are really fateful, if it weren't for the countless branches to help you slow down, the magic weapon clothes on your body The defensive formation suddenly activated, you would definitely fall to your death if you fell from such a high place. ”
Listening to this strong man's words, Ling Fan looked down at the top-grade treasure robe on his body, and saw that there was indeed a big hole in the position of the formation carved on the chest of the robe, knowing that this was the formation activation, but it could not withstand the powerful impact and shattered, he sighed in his heart the strength of the top-grade treasure weapon, and at the same time, he also had some gratitude for Du Yueji who provided him with this magic weapon.
"Big brother, although I didn't fall to my death, if it wasn't for my eldest brother's rescue, I'm afraid that I would have been eaten by jackals, tigers and leopards in a coma. Seeing that the storage ring on his body was still there, Ling Fan knew that he had met a good person.
"Big brother, don't you know your name?"
"My name is Niu Da Zhuang, and as it happens, when we were passing by with a dart, we happened to see you fall off a cliff. When you are out and about, if you can help, you naturally have to help. Besides, you've only been in a coma for the night, and we really didn't help. Little brother, what's your name?"
"My name is Fan Ling, no matter what, I still have to thank Brother Niu, I don't know where Brother Niu went this time?"
At this time, the sky was already dark, and while Ling Fan was chatting with Niu Dazhuang, several people in the distance had already begun to get busy.
"We're going to Jingzhou City this time......"
"Jingzhou City?" Niu Dazhuang had just said half of his words when he was immediately interrupted by Ling Fan's surprised voice.
"Brother Niu, can I go with you? I'm going to Jingzhou City!"
......
The dense forest is particularly lively in the early morning, and at this time of the day, the early birds and insects have already begun to go out to feed, and from time to time they chirp.
But today it was a little different, for there were six strong men walking through the woods in the depths of the forest, and behind them were closely followed a carriage, on which in addition to seven or eight boxes of various sizes, sat one man cross-legged.
This person is, of course, Ling Fan, and the six people in front of him are Niu Dazhuang's dart team.
At that time, Ling Fan wanted to follow them to Jingzhou City, but not everyone agreed, after all, in the Qingyun Mountain Range, which would appear at this dangerous moment, with a seriously injured person, there was no trouble.
However, when Ling Fan finally took out a high-grade spirit stone as a reward, these different voices immediately disappeared.
However, although the process of paying made Ling Fan a little disappointed, the treatment after paying made him very satisfied.
Along the way, Ling Fan barely had to do anything, just stayed in the carriage all the time, which provided him with a lot of time to recover.
It took a whole morning, and with the continuous nourishment of spiritual energy in his body, Ling Fan's body had recovered most of it.
After waking up from his cultivation, opening his eyes, and looking at the vast forest sea around him, Ling Fan couldn't help but ask, "Brother Niu, why don't you take the official road?"
In response to Ling Fan's question, Niu Dazhuang smiled and said, "Brother Fan Ling, do you know, we have already walked this road several times, it is much closer than the official road, and most of the cottages on this road have been in contact with us, so there is basically no danger...... Huh?"
As soon as Niu Dazhuang finished speaking, suddenly a running sound came from the front. A moment later, a wild wolf burst out of the woods.
"It's a wild wolf, Xiao Zhang, you go and kill this wild wolf, and it just so happens that our night's food has also been solved!"
Seeing that it was just a wild wolf, Niu Dazhuang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately commanded.
"Okay, big brother, just look at it!"
As soon as Niu Dazhuang's words were finished, a teenager had already run straight towards the wild wolf.
Niu Dazhuang, the six people in the dart team, although except for Niu Dazhuang, who is a monk of the fifth layer of qi induction, the others are ordinary people. However, these ordinary people also live a life of walking on the edge of a knife, and there is nothing wrong with killing a wild wolf.
However, when Xiao Zhang just rushed in front of the wolf and waved the firewood knife in his hand to kill the wolf, a sudden change occurred, and a fireball smashed on the wolf first.
With a 'bang', the wild wolf that was blown away by the fireball actually hit Xiao Zhang directly, and even Xiao Zhang was shocked a foot away.
"Who is it?"
Although he was not injured, he was knocked into the air for no reason, which still made Xiao Zhang yell angrily.
"Hmph, on our territory, you are still so arrogant?"
A voice came from the woods, and a moment later, three figures walked out of the woods.
Seeing that the three of them were wearing black and gray metal armor, Niu Dazhuang's brows immediately furrowed.
"Black Wind Village?"
"Hmph, you still have some eyesight! The squad leader in the Lower Black Wind Village, Hei Kui!"
The person who spoke was the one standing in the middle of the three, and this person's cultivation was comparable to that of Niu Dazhuang, and they were all at the fifth level of qi induction. And the two on either side of him were monks with three layers of qi induction.
In this way, although there are only three of them, they are much stronger than the six people of Niu Dazhuang.
"Brother Fan Ling, we can't afford to mess with this Black Wind Village, you sit here and don't speak, I'll deal with it!"
Niu Dazhuang whispered to Ling Fan, and then immediately walked towards the three people in Heifeng Village, while squeezing out a helpless smile on his face.
"It turned out to be the three eldest brothers of Heifeng Village, don't worry, I, Niu Dazhuang, have also walked on this road a few times, I understand the rules!" Niu Dazhuang walked in front of the three of them and hugged his fists. After finishing speaking, he immediately turned back to Xiao Zhang and shouted, "Go, take twenty medium-grade spirit stones, and honor the three eldest brothers!"
Hearing Niu Dazhuang's words, although Xiao Zhang was reluctant, he still took the spirit stone.
However, to Niu Dazhuang's surprise, these three people did not accept it.
"Three big brothers, what do you mean?"
"Hmph!" Hei Kui snorted coldly, glanced at Wang Dazhuang contemptuously, and then raised his hand to the carriage in the distance, and said with greed in his eyes: "Tomorrow is the birthday of our village master, you are in a hurry, so this time the rules must be changed, your goods must be honored to the village owner, you go!"
"What?"
Hei Kui's words surprised everyone.
You must know that as a dart escort on the Shenzhou Continent, the rule of 'dart is in the people, and the dart is lost' is known to every dart person. If the escorted goods are lost, even if these people go back alive, they will definitely be killed, if not, who will dare to find someone to escort the dart next time?
"Three big brothers, you see that this time we will hand over more offerings, let us pull the goods away, okay?"
Niu Dazhuang's voice was full of begging, but Hei Kui laughed evilly, glanced at Niu Dazhuang with disdain, and said, "No! If you have to keep your goods, then your life will stay here!"
Hei Kui's tone of voice was like an understatement, as if the lives of these people seemed to him like mustard.
"Three big brothers, if our goods are handed over to you, we will die when we go back!"
"That can't be helped. ”
No matter how Niu Dazhuang and the others begged, these three monks from Black Wind Village did not have the slightest intention of relenting, and there was a fierce light in their eyes, obviously it would not be long before these three people were ready to make a move.
"Brother Zhuang, if you can't do it, you can fight with them!"
Xiao Zhang was young and vigorous, and he couldn't help it, so he suddenly yelled.
But the sound was like a spark on fire, which immediately aroused the anger of the three of them.
Seeing that the three of Heikui were about to attack, a sigh suddenly came and interrupted the movements of the three.
"Hey, three, you have to be forgiving and forgiving!"
