29. Advance to Liangshan

At noon, the sun was shining, and at the entrance of the mountain village, Zhang Fan and the three villagers were saying goodbye to the old man Situ.

Zhang Fan looked at the old man who saw him off, and was very grateful, if he wasn't proficient in the method of heavenly machine calculation, then the doubts in his heart would always remain in his heart, let alone find Xue'er. He said to Old Man Situ: "Grandpa Situ, the four of us are going to go into the mountains to look for thieves next, please stay." ”

Old man Situ knew that Zhang Fan was strong in martial arts, but he was worried that he would encounter danger in the mountains and forests, so he patiently advised: "Xiao Fan, although you are strong in martial arts, there are many wild beasts and countless dangers in the mountains and forests, you must discuss with your three uncles along the way, and don't put yourself in danger." Dozens of miles to the west is located in a place where feng shui converges, said Liangshanbo, Liangshanbo is located in the hinterland of Liangshan, there is a vast and dangerous Liangshan block, originally few outsiders went there, but in recent years, the world is chaotic, the people of Li have suffered disasters, there are suffering people trekking to the sinister Liangshan to reach Liangshanbo, and finally settle down there, there are also many vicious people to avoid the pursuit and killing, fled there, several years have formed a small force. Your sister was quietly snatched away, and I guess she must be from Liangshanbo. I will let three warriors from the village who are proficient in medicine, hunting, and exploration follow you, so that you can safely travel west.

According to my calculations, your sister must still be alive, and as long as you are careful in this trip, you will definitely be able to rescue her, and you may even encounter a big opportunity. But facts are impermanent, ever-changing, even the ancestors of the past have not been able to calculate everything, you still have to be careful. ”

When Zhang Fan heard the old man Situ's serious words, his heart was full of gratitude to the old man, and he promised: "Grandpa Situ, don't worry, the four of us are all good at refining the marrow realm and above, and we will be fine." ”

At this time, Ling'er's eyes next to the old man were full of tears, and his heart was full of reluctance, and he choked up: "Brother Fan, as soon as you find Sister Xue'er, you have to come back early, Ling'er has been waiting for you at home, you have to come back early." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Fan smiled and swore again: "Don't worry Ling'er, brother, I will definitely not delay on the road, come back to see you early, and treat Mubai and them." Now we're leaving, so stay behind. ”

Old man Situ and the villagers who came to see him off said in unison: "Xiaofan, you have to go early and return early." ”

Zhang Fan and the three villagers said: "Grandpa Situ (patriarch), let's go, say goodbye!" Then the four of them took dry food, some healing medicine and weapons out of the valley and walked into the vast mountains and forests.

Zhang Fan thought back to Old Man Situ's words, and knew that the deep mountains near here were part of Liangshan, stretching for nearly thousands of miles from east to west, although compared to the 100,000 mountains, it was a drop in the ocean, but it was much larger than the Beast Forest. The Liangshan Mountain Range, especially the Liangshan Bo, is lush with vegetation and trees, with many strange peaks and dangerous mountains, tigers, leopards, apes and wolves and rare and exotic grasses, which is a dangerous place and a paradise for warriors.

The four of them silently marched all the way, passing through countless jungles, hunting countless low-level brute beasts that came to harass them, and trekking through countless mountains and rivers. Near evening, Zhang Fan and his entourage walked nearly ten miles and came to a plain, where they saw that the surrounding trees were sparse and there were many flowers and plants, but there was no sign of brute beasts, so they planned to rest. Zhang Fan said to the three villagers: "Three uncles, if it's late today, let's rest here and continue westward tomorrow." The three of them were instructed by the patriarch to follow Zhang Fan on this trip, so they naturally listened to his instructions in everything, and replied one after another: "Shaoxia, we all listen to your arrangement, there are no brute beasts nearby, so we will rest here for the night." Seeing that everyone had no objections, Zhang Fan said again: "Okay, then let's eat some jerky first, rest for a while, and then hurry tomorrow." Then Zhang Fan also found a flat land, and after eating some dried meat, he crossed his knees to cultivate the True Dragon Purple Qi Technique.

"Ah, blue wolf!"

In the middle of the night, a scream suddenly disturbed the silent plain. Zhang Fan, who was originally meditating, was also awakened by the scream, and then looked at the place where the scream came from, only to see that Situ Shu, who was in charge of guarding not far away, was bitten by a brute beast, lying on the ground and wailing, and the eighteen blue wolves in the plains full of cold moonlight were staring greedily at the four of them with green and faint eyes, and they also let out wolf howls from time to time, which looked a little terrifying.

Zhang Fan was extremely frightened in his heart, he really didn't expect that this group of blue wolves could avoid the eyes and ears of the four people, sneak to Situ Shu's side and bite him.

He commanded loudly: "Two uncles, hurry up and be on guard! There are eighteen six-rank blue wolves around us, you protect yourselves." Then Zhang Fan quickly rushed to Situ Shu's side, picked him up, and then quickly came back to the other two, and said: "Uncle Yao, you are proficient in medical skills, come and see Uncle Shu, Uncle Jian will help guard up, and I will kill the blue wolf." ”

Situ Yao and Situ Jian had already prepared, and when they heard Zhang Fan's words, they replied: "Shaoxia, don't worry, Xiaoshu will be handed over to us." ”

When Zhang Fan heard this, he said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you." After he finished speaking, he stepped without a trace, holding the Qingying Sword, and ran towards more than a dozen blue wolves.

Previously, Zhang Fan took advantage of the moment when the blue wolf was frightened by everyone and temporarily paused to quickly save Situ Shu, who was bitten by the blue wolf, and it only took a few breaths before and after. When Zhang Fan approached the blue wolf again, the blue wolf had already reacted and howled and attacked Zhang Fan and the four of them.

As soon as Zhang Fan approached the blue wolf that was rushing to the front, he slashed it head-on, a purple light flashed, the blue wolf split into two, died, and then he killed the three blue wolves closest to him, and with several purple lights shooting out, the three wolves were killed instantly. Then he approached the nine-headed blue wolf that was rushing again, and a sword slashed out, killing the six-rank blue wolf one after another. Then he rushed towards the more and more blue wolves, sending out purple sword qi one after another, slashing them one after another, and after a while, the other blue wolves were killed.

However, just when Zhang Fan was happy to kill the blue wolf, he found that a gray shadow was like lightning attacking Situ Shu and the others. Zhang Fan was horrified, he didn't expect that there was a blue wolf nearby, and it was still a seventh-grade blue wolf, so he hurriedly shouted: "Be careful, Blue Wolf King!" Unfortunately, he answered him with a cry of pain.

Zhang Fan didn't expect that there was a blue wolf king among the blue wolves, and the humiliation of the ninja wolves being killed, launched a deadly attack on the three at the last moment. He was sad when he saw that the warriors he brought were all injured, but he didn't have time to think, so he immediately slashed at the Blue Wolf King with his sword. Although the Blue Wolf King had just succeeded in a sneak attack, he was only a seventh-rank brute beast, and he couldn't dodge Zhang Fan's purple sword qi. With a flash of purple light, the Blue Wolf King lost one of his hind feet and fell to the grass in front of him in an instant. Zhang Fan injured the Blue Wolf King with a sword, and slashed at the Blue Wolf King again, and as a purple light slashed through the neck of the Blue Wolf King, the wolf's head flew out several feet away at once. Before the wolf king could howl, he died.

Zhang Fan killed the Blue Wolf King, and quickly came to the three of them and asked, "Three uncles, how are you injured?" Hearing this, Situ Yao sat up from the ground with difficulty and said, "Thank you Shaoxia for the timely rescue, although the three of us were bitten by the blue wolf, it was not fatal." Now that we've taken the medicine, we'll be fine tomorrow morning. ”

Situ Jian, who was lying on the side, also replied with a grateful face: "Thank you Shaoxia, otherwise we would have really entered the belly of the blue wolf." ”

Situ Shu heard the words of the three of them, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "Thank you Shaoxia for saving your life." Brothers, I was negligent and didn't find the blue wolf in advance. I'm ashamed to say that if I hadn't thrown the meat and bones around, the blue wolf wouldn't have been attracted, and everyone wouldn't have been attacked by the blue wolf. ”

When Zhang Fan heard this, the uneasiness in his heart was relaxed, after all, these people were invited to help by themselves, and if there were casualties, they couldn't stand the old man Situ and the enthusiastic villagers. He didn't blame Situ Shu, but comforted: "This has nothing to do with you, the area nearby was originally the area where the blue wolf was active, we were negligent, don't take it to heart." Now that the wolf is dead, the three uncles should take care of their injuries first. ”

Situ Yao and Situ Jian also said: "Yes, don't blame yourself. You're the most injured of us, so take care of your injuries. ”

Zhang Fan saw that several people were injured and stabilized, and said, "Three uncles." I'm going to deal with these wolves to keep the other brutes from getting close. After he finished speaking, he went to deal with the brute beast blue wolf.

After Zhang Fan made all the brute beasts into jerky, everyone also fell asleep one after another, waiting for the dawn to continue on their way.

The next day, Zhang Fan and the four of them continued to travel westward until noon, when they arrived at a dangerous mountain peak, strange rocks, and light smoke.

When the four of them came to a mountain col, they found that the surrounding vegetation was showing signs of being cut down, and a path stretched forward along the col, and there was a faint sound of dogs barking in front of them. Zhang Fan said with a smile: "Three uncles, I see that there is a good chance that Liangshanbo is ahead, and we finally didn't go the wrong way on this trip." ”

Situ Shu heard the words and said: "Shaoxia said that it is good, there are indeed signs of activity in this vicinity, although the front is a little hazy, but you can still vaguely see a wide plain. ”

Situ Jian was more sensitive to changes in the number of brute beasts, and replied: "There are brute beasts in Liangshan from time to time, but there are very few brute beasts we have encountered nearby, which shows that Liangshanbo is ahead. ”

With his own experience in collecting medicines, Situ Yao also gave his own opinions. He said slowly: "Xiao Shu and Xiao Jian are right, there are traces of a large number of herbs collected in this vicinity, and it is difficult to meet the three herbs, and the front must be Liangshanbo." ”

Zhang Fan smiled and said, "Thank you so much to the three uncles, if it weren't for your guidance all the way, we might still have to go around the vast mountains." Since there is Liangshanbo ahead, let's continue walking. ”

Then the four of them walked forward as they spoke.
