Chapter 300 Pingzhou Prefecture (Part 1)

"The two of them...should have no problem." Wang Yunkai looked back at Han Yi and Fatty Zheng, who were walking at the back of the team and acting as the pressure.

He turned around again and added: "The two of them should indeed be innocent passers-by who were involved by us. Although they more or less have hidden things and other purposes, this is normal. They are out and about. "Those who hide nothing will die at home long ago."

"But... this is strange..." Tantai Xunzhen's lips parted slightly, "Except for the two outsiders... the rest are our real Our own people...could there be any problems?"

"Perhaps the previous pursuit left traces on our belongings, clothes, and luggage... It doesn't necessarily mean there was a traitor..." Wang Yunkai comforted, "That incident yesterday After a heavy rain, each of us washed our bodies and changed all our clothes. Most of the foreign objects were thrown away, so we might be fine. "

When they first disembarked, there were a large number of people ambushing and attacking them. It was nothing here. Originally, there were a large number of people in their group. When they got on the ship, they were targeted and set up an ambush. It was normal for them to be short of people.

But then, in order to avoid pursuit and avoid the official road with clear map guidance, he broke into the deserted mountains and dense forests, and the situation became a bit strange...

They only lasted a dozen days in total, and their movements in the mountains and forests were like a pebble thrown into the vast sea, and it was impossible for them to be discovered.

But the result was that they were attacked and chased several times in unsuspecting safe areas... It was as if the enemy knew their location accurately and was prepared in advance.

Putting together all the clues, Wang Yunkai had only one guess, that there was a traitor in the team.

But no matter how he ruled it out or checked, he could never find out who had the problem.

Therefore, he could only think on the bright side of all this. Maybe there were other factors, such as problems with his clothes and luggage.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, it's okay." Tantai Xunzhen looked at Wang Yunkai's melancholy face and persuaded him: "Han Yi is considered the strongest person, but if he has problems, killing him will be like picking something out of a bag."

"Miss, Han Yi, there should be no problem with this person. Also, your bloodline has just awakened, so you still can't use it too much. You should focus on warmth and nourishment." Wang Yunkai persuaded with a wry smile.

He always feels that since his young lady awakened her bloodline, she has become much more decisive and murderous...

Bloodline is truly a magical existence...

In the past, she was just a wealthy lady who didn't even dare to touch chickens, ducks, and fish, but now she is going to get blood if she disagrees with her...

"Uncle Wang, I know what's going on, don't worry." Tantai Xunzhen replied with a smile.

The team kept moving forward, heading higher. The wet ground was extremely difficult to walk on. The heavy rain mixed with the sticky humus soil, plus rotten leaves and dead grass, forming mud that was sticky to the feet.

The team had to stop from time to time to help people stuck in the mud get out.

In addition to these, you should also check where you step on to see if there are any snakes or poisonous insects nearby.

Therefore, the team could not increase their speed at all. The heavy fog dissipated, and after walking for a whole noon, they were able to walk out of this muddy land.

Wang Yunkai also quickly ordered a clean area to be cleared for everyone who was exhausted to rest temporarily.

The guard took off his muddy boots, leaving his stinky feet covered in hot white sweat to dry unscrupulously. He was about to use a knife to peel off the mud on his boots.

He was about to take the knife when he looked up and was immediately startled. He quickly stuffed his stinky feet into his stinky boots and became alert.

Everyone was also frightened by his actions and looked at him at the same time.

I saw two people wearing feathered clothes under the big tree tens of meters away.

Han Yi frowned and looked intently. Could it be that there was another ambush, but he didn't feel like it.

Because that person's neck is too long, and he doesn't look like a normal person.

"It's actually a black mandrill!" Wang Yunkai looked happy, as if he had discovered a good thing.

"Blackbird?"

Han Yi had an idea and took a closer look.

Sure enough, the two people in black feathers were simply two big black birds with long fluffy feathers, lowering their heads and pecking at what looked like a mutilated human corpse.

He quickly searched in his mind. He seemed to have heard of this name somewhere.

Finally, he remembered that the map he got from Huang Shanjun seemed to record such a ferocious beast.

Black mandrills are ferocious by nature and are a type of ferocious beast. They eat carnivores, especially fresh flesh and blood. They gather in groups and are highly poisonous all over their bodies, especially their blood and claws.

These swarms of ferocious birds are marked as extremely dangerous on the map, which means that the best way to deal with such a thing is to avoid it.

According to the description on the map, although the individual combat effectiveness of such ferocious beasts as black mandrills is not very good, they cannot stand up to large numbers.

Their favorite hunting method is to go out in large numbers, and then swarm up together to catch you and peck you. As long as they see blood, even blood refining warriors will definitely die.

As for the martial arts master, he has to be patient when faced with the overwhelming flock of black mandrills. After all, the martial arts master's reflexes and speed, no matter how strong they are, cannot compare to such birds that are born to fly.

But the appearance of the black-headed bird here means that the current location...

"We are almost at Pingzhou Prefecture!"

Wang Yunkai returned to the team and smiled and whispered. Why did he want the team to keep going up? Wasn't it just to climb high and look far, observe the current location and direction, and judge how to go?

Now, without wasting much time, he directly judged the location.

The black-headed bird likes cold weather and generally only gathers in the Broken Howl Mountains.

After crossing the Broken Howl Mountains, it is near Pingzhou Prefecture!

As long as he reaches Pingzhou Prefecture, he can mobilize the Pingzhou Army with his connections. At that time, no matter what kind of pursuers chase him, they will not be able to hurt them at all.

At that time, under the escort of the army, the transfer back to Yunzhou Dongyang College will be foolproof.

In the team, everyone's tired mind was refreshed.

Everyone vaguely saw the hope of returning home smoothly.

Wang Yunkai led everyone to pack up their things again, slowly retreat, bypass this area, and go to other places to rest.

The martial artists were not afraid of the two black-headed birds, but the others who were with them had better avoid them.

Perhaps it was because the crowd was making too much noise, or perhaps it was because the two black-headed birds were full and had enough to eat, so a fluttering sound was heard.

Han Yi looked back and saw the black-headed bird's arms, which were more than three meters wide, spread out, revealing a long red neck. Its face was narrow and vaguely human-like, and it flew out of the forest.

.......

.......

After several days of continuous travel, it seemed that the hope of returning home soon stimulated everyone. The speed of the whole team increased a lot at once, and the dense forest with muddy ground and nowhere to step on was left behind.

But...

"Why are there more and more black-headed birds..." Han Yi frowned, looking at the bird droppings on the tree and the conspicuous black feathers.

A few days ago, the dense forest they were in seemed to be just the periphery of the Wuxiao bird's territory, but in the past few days, they encountered Wuxiao birds more and more frequently. There was even one time when a hungry Wuxiao bird attacked the team like crazy.

But there was only one Wuxiao bird, and there were three martial artists in the team, plus a Tan Tai Xunzhen whose strength was unknown.

This Wuxiao bird that came to die was easily killed without even a wail to call for its companions.

"Alas, thirty years ago, I walked here. At that time, there was no official road. This was also a road. People coming and going would spontaneously clear Wuxiao birds. Now that this road is abandoned, there are naturally more..." Wang Yunkai crouched down, pulled out the weeds, and carefully searched for the remaining road that was about to become extinct.

Han Yi also understood immediately. Judging from the black-headed bird that was killed, this beast has a large skeleton. Apart from bones and feathers, there is not much meat. After removing the poisonous and inedible parts, it is basically worthless. No one would come here specifically for this bird and take the trouble to clean it up.

Moreover, this bird lives in groups of three or five. It is highly poisonous and is a flying bird. It has no natural enemies. Naturally, it can build nests and dominate in this area.

"Okay, let's rest here tonight." Wang Yunkai found a good direction for tomorrow's road and called everyone to rest.

Han Yi and his party quickly built a simple wooden shed in the forest. The main body was built with thick tree branches. The roof of the wooden shed was covered with several layers of wide leaves like banana leaves. Several people divided the work and cooperated. In just half an hour, several decent wooden sheds were built.

The powerful strength and excellent physical fitness of the warriors gave them great convenience.

Everyone rested in the wooden shed, sitting around the bonfire, sitting on thick animal fur, and roasting wild animals caught in the mountains and forests.

Except for Ya'er, Tan Tai Xun Zhen's personal maid, none of these people were ordinary people. Without the crazy pursuit of the enemy, they could live happily in this barren mountain that ordinary people would turn pale at the mention of.

Even Fatty Zheng, who had slightly lost weight and returned to his normal body shape, became fat again.

"Miss, eat another bite... Look at how thin you are..." Ya'er and Tan Tai Xun Zhen sat together by another slightly smaller bonfire, roasting a plant tuber that looked like sweet potato. They were both women after all, and they were always a little uncomfortable staying with a group of men. .

"You eat, I'm not hungry." Tan Tai Xun Zhen smiled, "Ya'er, you should eat more. You must have been starved during the days of running away a few days ago."

"It's okay. I'm not afraid or hungry as long as the young lady is here." Ya'er smiled mischievously.

"That's good. Eat quickly. This thing is delicious while it's hot." Tan Tai Xun Zhen picked out a few large pieces and handed them to Ya'er.

Then, she closed her eyes and concentrated again, sitting cross-legged beside the campfire.

The time for her bloodline to awaken was still too short, and she needed to hurry up and get familiar with the changes in her body as soon as possible.

Yaer closed her legs, hugged her knees with both hands, lowered her head, and accompanied her young lady as usual.

As she watched, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.

That's how the young lady is. No matter what time, she will be so calm and do the most correct thing.

That's how the young lady is. She is always smart, smart, and resolute. No wonder she always becomes the core of the crowd when she appears.

Even in the most dangerous situation now, there are countless people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for her, and willing to sacrifice their heads and shed blood for her insignificant words.

But...

Ya'er thought about it, and a trace of jealousy flashed in her heart.

She looked at her curvy figure, which was bulging and tight... and then looked at Tan Tai Xun Zhen, who was completely skinny from head to toe.

Why? In terms of figure, I am much better than her.

Why does she wear a veil all year round? Isn't it because she thinks she is not good-looking? In terms of appearance, I am much better looking than her.

But why, such an ordinary person has been favored and loved by everyone...

Even Qin Lang looked at her with a different look, which was a shining light that had never been seen before.

Thinking of this, a trace of jealousy appeared in Ya'er's heart.

She wanted to tear off the woman in front of her bit by bit in front of Qin Lang!

She quickly raised her head again and glanced at Han Yi not far away. If it weren't for this person... she would have completed the task long ago...

When she thought of what happened that night, she was furious.

Everything was going well. She only needed to blow out the incense powder to complete the task.

But the appearance of this person disrupted all plans.

That night, after she returned to the cave, she couldn't sleep at all. She sneaked out to take a look. What made her angry was that the powder had been buried in the pit long ago, mixed with mud and water, and turned black and lumped together, completely losing its effect.

But it doesn't matter...

Ya'er's mouth curled up, revealing a strange smile, which looked particularly gloomy under the illumination of the campfire of varying brightness.

There is still a chance.....

She touched another item in her arms.

----------------------------------------------

In the early morning, when it was just dawn and the sun had not yet risen, everyone set off early in the wet morning dew.

The mountain road was steep and rocky, and there was some wet green moss on the rocks, which made it difficult to walk on it.

But everyone did not complain at all, but instead quickened their pace.

According to Wang Yunkai, he estimated that this road was almost at the end. As long as they crossed a stone bridge down the mountain, they should have crossed the Broken Howl Mountains and reached the Pingzhou Prefecture.

When they thought about returning to civilized society, warm rooms, bright lights, delicious food, clean drinking water... everyone was full of motivation and hope.
