Long Night Country

Wilderness

Wilderness

Aug 16, 2024

Deng Jiu killed the local lord's warriors neatly, turned around and saw Jiang Yao, who looked a little pale, and quickly comforted him: "Yao'er, whether it is Shenzhou or Demon Realm, killing is a common thing. If you don't kill people, people will kill you. It's just the law of the jungle. You will get used to it in the future."

Jiang Yao took a deep breath, "Yes. I know."

The expressions of several people were very ugly, knowing that trouble was coming.

Especially Deng Jiu, he was quite regretful. He didn't expect that he would be found by the warriors just because he didn't go to the manor to work for a few days, and he didn't expect that the warrior came to the manor for inspection a few days ago, but came again so soon.

This person deserved to die, but what should he do next?

"He is Xiang Rang's warrior, Xiang Rang must have his soul tablet. We must leave here!" Jiang's mother Wei Rong looked bitter.

Jiang Yao couldn't help but ask, "Dad, why don't you control him? If we put him under house arrest, we can leave calmly."

He really couldn't understand why his father chose to kill the other party directly, so that he had to run away immediately.

Wei Rong said, "He is a soldier. In order to facilitate the lord's command, he has a soul tablet, which is in the lord's hand. As long as he is not dead, a thought can sense the soul tablet. His lord will know what happened."

"That's why your father killed him quickly, so that he wouldn't send out a thought to sense the soul tablet. If he killed him, his lord would only know that he was dead and where he died, but he didn't know more about the situation."

Jiang Yao understood that there was such a thing as a soul tablet, which sounded like a kind of equipment.

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let's go! Go to Fanshan!" Deng Jiu said, and he was about to grab Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao was anxious, "Dad, I still have to go back to the house to get a few things I'm used to!"

"Go quickly!" Deng Jiu nodded, looking a little anxious.

Jiang Yao rushed into his room, got under the bed, pulled out the Pisces jade pendant, and quickly put it in his arms. This thing must be taken away.

Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly saw the rattle that his elder sister made for him in the cabinet. Without thinking too much, he grabbed it and took down a bow and arrow from the wall.

Although his parents and sister were both very powerful martial artists, he himself had no martial arts skills. With a hunting bow in hand, he felt more at ease.

The four people shook their heads when they saw him take out a bow and arrow used by mortals.

"Can't delay, Yao'er, Dad will carry you! Quick!" Deng Jiu shouted.

Jiang Yao had no time to think about it, and he was also very nervous. As soon as he climbed onto his father's back and hugged his neck, he felt like he was flying in the air.

Deng Jiu carried Jiang Yao on his back and operated the Zhenyuan Heart Method, flying high like a big bird.

Jiang Yao only felt the rustling of wind in his ears. The courtyard where he had lived for nearly nine years was quickly moving away from his sight. The familiar stream where he often washed his feet was also moving away quickly.

The strong wind made Jiang Yao unable to open his eyes. He looked down at the scenery on the ground below his feet that was rapidly receding, and his mind was in chaos.

Dad is flying?

Is this the magical power of a martial artist?

This speed... is faster than an airplane, right?

He saw that his mother was also following closely beside him, looking at him with concern, as if she was afraid that he would fall.

"Yao'er! Don't be afraid, hold your father's neck tightly!" Wei Rong was faster than Deng Jiu because he was not carrying anyone.

Mei Mei and Jiang Cai were far behind, but they only flew a few miles before they fell down and flew again.

Obviously, this was not a real flying in the air, but a gliding flight, and they would fall down after a few miles at most.

Sure enough, Deng Jiu flew more than ten miles with Jiang Yao on his back, and the speed gradually slowed down, so he had to fall down.

After he fell, he paused for only half a breath before leaping into the air again.

"His father!" Wei Rong shouted in the air in front, "Let me carry Yao'er!"

"You go first! I can still hold on!" Deng Jiu shouted, "Don't be afraid, Yao'er! I have a father!"

Seeing this, Jiang Yao couldn't help but feel a little nose sour.

The serfs working in the underground manor looked up at the people flying in the air and were all dumbfounded.

Master Wu Xiu!

…………

At the same time, outside a mansion hundreds of miles away from the manor, a black-armored warrior fell from the sky, then hurried into the room and said to a man in a white robe and a high crown: "My lord! Ji Kui's soul tablet is broken! He died in Jiuxi Manor."

"What?!" The man in the white robe and a high crown looked solemn, and a strong aura spread out.

He had only hundreds of cavalrymen under his command, and each of them was like a treasure. That was the foundation of his rule over the fiefdom. However, one of them was killed in Jiuxi Manor!

The black-armored warrior was a captain of a hundred cavalrymen. "My lord, I'm telling you! They should be some scattered cultivators hiding in the manor. Someone saw them running to the west. It seems that they are fleeing to Fanshan!"

"How dare you!" The man in a white robe and a high crown stood up suddenly. "How dare a few scattered cultivators from outside do this!"

This man was, of course, the local lord Xiang Rang. He was over 800 years old and had the cultivation level of the late martial honor.

"What is their cultivation level?" Xiang Rang asked sternly.

"In my opinion, they are at most martial honor! My lord, I have already mobilized the troops!" said the captain of a hundred cavalrymen.

"Send out the troops! Chase!"

"Yes!"

Then, hundreds of cavalrymen set out together, carrying Xiang Rang's military emblem flag, and rumbled to the west.

Hundreds of horses galloped like thunder and lightning, and wherever they passed, strong winds suddenly rose.

Xiang Rang took the lead and chased after them himself, "A few casual cultivators, without a thousand-mile horse, they can't run far!"

The physical speed of a martial cultivator is very fast, and they can fly faster than a thousand-mile horse in short distances, but it is difficult to sustain.

Because flying consumes true energy and spiritual consciousness. A martial cultivator with the cultivation of a warrior will be exhausted if he flies hundreds of miles up and down continuously.

Even a martial master can only fly one or two thousand miles continuously, not more.

But his cavalry can run continuously for more than ten thousand miles without stopping.

With hundreds of cavalry in hand, even if a few casual cultivators are martial masters, they can kill them. If there is no military formation, twenty or thirty warriors can't deal with a martial master, but if a military formation is used, a ten-martial formation can deal with a martial master, and a hundred-martial formation can deal with a martial master!

His hundred cavalry have been trained for more than a hundred years, and they have long been proficient in military formations. Any ten-martial formation composed of ten can deal with a martial master. With these hundred iron cavalry, he is not afraid of a martial master.

Of course, training a military formation is not an easy task. It requires long-term training and is highly dependent on equipment, so it is expensive to raise a cavalry.

If he loses a cavalry, his Ten Martial Formation will be ruined. Can he bear it? Recruiting another casual martial artist to join the cavalry training military formation, it is still unknown how long the training will take.

In just over an hour, Xiang Rang led the cavalry to chase for more than a thousand miles. It is less than two thousand miles away from the direction of Fanshan.

The Lishan tribe is originally the western frontier of the Southern Region, and Fanshan is west of the Lishan tribe, so Fanshan is actually the boundary mountain between the Southern Region and the Western Region. It stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles, is tens of thousands of miles wide, and towers for more than a thousand miles, with peaks reaching the void.

There are many fierce beasts and dangerous places in Fanshan. The deeper you go, the more dangerous it is. The deepest place is so deep that even high-level martial artists dare not set foot in it, so it can become a natural boundary mountain between the Southern Region and the Western Region.

Even in the entire vast Shenzhou, Fanshan can be ranked among the top ten famous mountains.

This is why Xiang Rang was sure that several scattered cultivators would flee to Fanshan. This is the territory of the Lishan tribe, and there are warriors and lords of the Lishan tribe everywhere. Where else can a few scattered cultivators flee except to Fanshan?

When Lord Xiang Rang sent troops to pursue, Deng Jiu and others were desperately fleeing with Jiang Yao, a burden.

Deng Jiu not only had to carry a big living person on his back, but also had to wait for Mei Mei and Qiao Cai who fell behind. He was really depressed.

With only a few months left to complete the task, how could his identity as a martial artist be exposed?

What made him even more ashamed and angry was that he, the direct descendant of the head of a second-class martial family, was afraid of a small lord and fled to the wilderness.

What is a strong dragon that cannot suppress a local snake?

This is it.

Wei Rong was also very anxious. She knew very well that Xiang Rang must have brought troops to catch up. The army is much more difficult to deal with than the scattered cultivators because they have military formations. Even high-level martial artists have a headache facing military formations.

Wei Rong took out a communication card, released his consciousness and engraved "Catch up as soon as possible, meet up at Qingwu Valley", then made a hand gesture to release the information.

The information was of course sent to Mei Mei and Qiao Cai who were left behind. Both of them were warriors, and their speed was too slow.

Wei Rong and Deng Jiu were very worried that they would fall into Xiang Rang's hands, so the secret of the medicine would be exposed. Then, perhaps the strong men in the entire Southern Region would come here after hearing the news, and they would not be able to escape.

Why did they deliberately come from the Central Region to the Southern Region, disguised as serfs for so many years, and mixed among mortals? Isn't it just to keep the secret of the medicine?

Deng Jiu was already panting at this time. Even if he was a martial arts master in the early stage, he was exhausted after flying more than a thousand miles with Jiang Yao on his back.

"How far is Qingwu Valley in Fanshan?" Deng Jiu put down Jiang Yao, swallowed another pill, and asked with a pale face.

Why go to Qingwu Valley?

Because when they came to Lishan tribe many years ago, they prepared an escape route. Qingwu Valley in Fanshan is their best hiding place.

When they came here to perform the mission, they brought a secret map with a safe secret path to Qingwu Valley in Fanshan. The deeper Fanshan is, the more dangerous it is. Although Qingwu Valley is deep in Fanshan, it is a rare safe area in the deep.

This map was drawn by a Wei family servant who came to Fanshan for training that year and survived a life-threatening situation. It is a secret map of Wei family.

Jiang Yao was very anxious, "Dad, Mom, Sister..." The boy did not ask Meimei.

Wei Rong smiled reluctantly, "Don't worry, Yao'er, they have a way. Mom and Dad will not abandon them. They will be here soon."

She was worried that Jiang Yao would think that she and Deng Jiu did not care about the lives of the two women, which would affect the perfection of the three emotions.

"Don't worry, Yao'er, they have their own way." Deng Jiu also comforted him gently.

The two said this, but they wanted to kick Jiang Yao to death in their hearts.

The task assigned to them by the clan leader was really too difficult for them. They sacrificed too much for this medicine.
