Chuanshu Shizun is a big villain

Chapter 220 My martial arts achievements are pretty good

A qualified escort must be a qualified hunter. They naturally know what they are guarding against and how to avoid it.

A qualified hunter must have enough patience, and Zhao Fenghui happened to have this quality.

Once the ugly period has passed, people feel most sleepy. This is the time when people are most sleepy and their defenses are at their weakest.

Often launching an attack on the enemy at this time will have unexpected effects.

Zhao Fenghui glanced at the sky, estimated the time, and tiptoed closer to Shiran.

When Shi Ran approached, a vicious and cruel smile flashed in Zhao Fenghui's eyes, "Boy, if you don't have that ability, how can you read porcelain? Since you are looking for death, then I will help you."

A cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes. Zhao Fenghui raised the long knife in his hand. Just as he was about to swing the knife, he heard a cold and bone-chilling voice, "What, you want to kill me?"

Zhao Fenghui was surprised to find that his body could not move and was floating directly.

what happened.

what happened.

Zhao Fenghui wanted to scream, but it felt like something was stuck in his throat. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't make a single sound.

What's happening here?

Shiran's cold voice came out, "If you don't speak, you will acquiesce."

"Then you, go to hell."

Zhao Fenghui regretted it, and fear filled his heart.

In front of Shi Ran, he didn't have the slightest resistance.

He is a second-rate master, and despite being injured and aging, he can still be regarded as a third-rate master.

And as a third-rate expert, he couldn't beat a ranger, or even... an ordinary baby, met a god.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world.

After dealing with Zhao Fenghui, Shi Ran continued to lie in the pothole like a normal person.

Shiran at this time was too plain and simple.

In fact, people outside don't know what's going on here.

In their eyes, Shiran remained untouched from beginning to end.

Shi Ran felt that Zhao Fenghui should thank him. If he hadn't given Zhao Fenghui the chance to kill him, he would have been discovered by Liu Qing, who was not far away and looked at him from time to time.

Obviously, Liu Qing also suspected that Zhao Fenghui would be unfavorable to Shi Ran.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on the earth, proving that a new journey is about to set sail.

Liu Qing frowned slightly.

Zhao Fenghui, who had been sneaking behind the caravan, disappeared.

After walking around a few times and still finding no trace of Zhao Fenghui, Liu Qing was sure of one thing.

Zhao Fenghui gave up following them.

This is a good thing.

In one day's journey, they would reach Tongquguan.

After arriving at Tongquguan and heading south, in a few days, you can reach the rich south of the Shitu Kingdom.

Everything is changing for the better.

No matter which caravan it was, everyone was in a much better mood.

The distance of 100 kilometers is more than 30 kilometers a day. If the weather is good, we can reach Tongquguan in three days.

If the weather is bad, it may take four to five days to arrive.

Generally speaking, the middle one or two days are the most dangerous.

Their business trip went smoothly this time, and they could reach Tongqu Pass in just three days.

The closer you are to Tongqu Pass, the safer you are.

That's pretty much the consensus.

At three o'clock in the morning, the surrounding temperature continued to rise. The smiles on the faces of the group decreased a lot, and the conversations also became less frequent.

Silence has become the main theme of the moment.

Call...

Call...

Call...

I don't know what happened, but all the horses in the caravan of more than a thousand people neighed together, as if they had seen something terrifying.

No.

It cannot be said that all caravan horses neighed.

At least, the Liu family's caravan horses didn't neigh.

Liu Qing frowned slightly and looked straight ahead.

"Mother-in-law, what happened?" Huang Jiujiu, who had some guesses in his mind, changed his face slightly. He suppressed his thoughts and looked at the Dinghai Divine Needle beside him, and said, "It's not because of a monster disaster."

The old woman, who was usually calm, showed a solemn look on her face.

Thousands of horses neighing, they must have encountered some terrifying monster.

As a practitioner at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm, the old woman has keen senses. He can hear and sense any movement hundreds of meters around, as long as the movement is slightly louder.

The current situation was that thousands of horses were neighing, but she didn't know why they were neighing.

In other words, the power of the evil spirits sweeping through this time may exceed hers.

"Let the caravan stop." The old woman ordered aloud: "Our movement speed cannot be as fast as the demon disaster. There is no point in escaping, and it may even cause greater casualties."

As a veteran merchant, the old woman knew that no matter how she dealt with this situation, it would not work.

Escape and overturning are trivial matters.

I can only pray that the evil spirit is not strong enough and I can take it down, or pray that the evil spirit will pass by, or pray that the evil spirit will stop after eating the caravan next to it.

Countless locusts rushed toward the caravan overwhelmingly.

Wherever the locusts passed, there was no difference between humans and animals, and everything turned into withered bones.

There was no reaction from humans or animals, and they were all gone.

The skeletons of humans and animals remain as they were during life.

A gust of wind blew and the skeleton collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

The old woman took a look and said: "The plan has changed, everyone, speed up."

Many things are not static.

When locusts cross the border, no grass will grow in the village. This is not just talk.

These evil locusts have terrible fighting power and appetite. If you don't run away, you will definitely die.

The horses' hooves raised dust as they moved forward rapidly.

The old woman gave another order, "Keep the goods first, people are the most important."

The horses neighed and ran hard, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

Almost in a breath, more than a dozen horses were eaten by locusts.

The old woman circulated her true energy and drove the horse herself. The spiritual energy was poured into the horse's body, stimulating and consuming the potential in the horse's body. The horse's speed suddenly accelerated.

No matter how fast the horse travels, it cannot move faster than the hungry locusts.

Except for the carriage driven by the old woman, the rest of the Ming family's caravan, even if they were riding alone, could not cross the border as fast as the locusts.

In the blink of an eye, only the carriages ridden by the old woman were still moving forward in the Ming caravan.

The locusts in the sky soon caught up with the carriage driven by the old woman.

Huang was in panic for a long time in the car, his face full of fear.

After all, he is also a young man who has never experienced anything in the world. He was not scared to the point of peeing his pants. It can only be said that Huang Jiujiu has a good character.

The carriage couldn't outrun the locusts, so the old woman grabbed Zhou Jiujiu by the collar, carried him like an eagle catching a chicken, and rushed forward quickly.

For a time, the locusts behind them were unable to catch up with the old woman and Huang Jiujiu.

A quarter of an hour later, when she saw that there were no more locusts behind her, the old woman let out a long breath.

Finally, he escaped.

Standing up with difficulty, the old woman stumbled and fell forward.

This was caused by excessive overdraft of her spiritual energy.

The dizzy Huang Jiujiu braced himself up and supported the old woman. "Giggle..." A harsh laugh came from above, "Do you think you can really escape?"

Regardless of her exhausted strength, the old woman suddenly raised her head and looked at the sky.

Above the sky, a huge figure one foot long was suspended.

It was a locust that climbed over the big board.

Every time the locust flaps its wings, the dust around it increases.

This is the wind control ability of locusts.

The old woman's pupils shrank slightly, and she didn't even notice the other person's presence.

In this way, the strength of this locust has reached at least the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm.

Boxing is afraid of young people.

The same is true for lower-level practitioners.

Although the old woman's cultivation is at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm, due to her age and hidden injuries, the normal strength she can exert is at most the fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

Even worse.

The old woman slightly raised her hands to the locust and said, "Senior, can you let us go? I have a good Qi-nourishing pill here as compensation."

"Quack..." The giant locust burst into strange laughter, "A good Qi-nourishing pill, that's a good thing."

"Yes." The old woman nodded and said, "As long as my Taoist friends are willing to let us go, I am willing to offer you this best Qi-nourishing pill."

The giant locust sneered: "Then do you know that if I kill you, not only can I eat the best Qi-nourishing pills, but I can also eat the flesh and blood of practitioners."

"Don't you know that to me, the flesh and blood of a practitioner is thousands of times better than this Qi-nourishing pill?"

"Or do you think I'm stupid, coveting your little Qi-nourishing pill and giving up more good things?"

The old woman's eyes were dim and unclear. She raised her hand and pointed, and a talisman glowed brightly. She rushed towards the huge locust at high speed and shouted at the same time: "Explode!"

The talisman flew close to the locust and exploded instantly.

This talisman can definitely kill evil spirits at the seventh level of Qi Refining Realm by surprise.

The old woman only had such a precious talisman in her whole life.

Used now.

Her biggest trump card is gone.

Compared with his own life, the consumption of a trump card does not seem to be an unacceptable thing.

The firelight dimmed, and a fragmented voice fell from the sky.

The moment it landed, a wing separated from the locust's body and flew towards the old woman at high speed.

The old woman's pupils shrank slightly and she couldn't dodge, and one of her arms was cut off by the wings.

The hungry tiger's counterattack before death is fatal to those weaker than it.

The blood in the shoulder kept gushing out.

The old woman ignored the injury on her shoulder and quickly rushed towards the blackened locust.

After a burst of output at the locust, the long sword in his hand kept falling, hitting the locust's body, making a clanging sound like metal collision.

After more than ten breaths, the old woman collapsed from exhaustion.

Regardless of whether the locusts on the ground were dead or not, she had no strength left.

This is all she can do.

As the saying goes, do your best to obey fate.

The trembling Huang Jiujiu came to the old woman's side. His hands were trembling, and he wanted to bandage the old woman, but he didn't know how to start.

The trembling hands stretched out and retracted.

Looks very confused.

I really don’t know what to do.

The old woman stood up with difficulty and raised her hand to touch the broken arm.

The bleeding from the wound stopped quickly.

The old woman looked at Ming Jiujiu, who was still trembling, with a relieved smile on her face, "Jiu Jiu, you are very good. You can still hold on in the face of such a big thing."

Huang Jiujiang's eyes flashed and he said: "But... the business failed this time, and you, mother-in-law, were so seriously injured..."

"The failure of the merchants was God's will. There will not be a single caravan in the merchants' team this time. There are as many people as us in the Ming family's caravan." "Even in our Ming family's caravan, only two of us survived."

The harm caused by locusts crossing the border, especially locusts with a certain level of cultivation, is not small. How could the caravan survive?

Not to mention just over a thousand people, plus goods and livestock.

Even if it were doubled several times, this swarm of passing locusts would be able to devour it completely.

The old woman continued: "As for me being seriously injured, it's not a big deal. As long as I'm still alive, everything is easy."

"You will gain wisdom by taking every step." "Natural disasters and demonic disasters are inevitable. Old lady, I have to step back. From now on, I can only rely on you to overcome the thorns and thorns of the Ming family."

"Is mother-in-law going to step down..."

Huang murmured to himself for a long time, and the look of disappointment on his face could not be suppressed.

The old woman said calmly: "Most of my life has been paid. The debt I owe to the Ming family has been repaid. This is all I can do." "For the remaining half of my life, I want to live the life I want." , I think Master Ming will not object. "

This is the first time the old woman calls him Master Ming.

Estimated, it is also the last time.

Huang knew for a long time that her mother-in-law was really leaving.

For the future, the Ming family will probably have to rely on him alone.

The sky is shining brightly.

In an environment filled with yellow sand, such weather cannot be said to be good.

In Huang Jiujiu's eyes, it can be regarded as bad.

The sun fell on the skin, burning it and causing pain. Under the dual effects of the yellow sand and the bright sun, Huang couldn't open his eyes for a long time.

What a bad weather.

Huang thought to himself for a long time.

Looking at the densely packed locusts, Liu Qing's pupils shrank slightly.

The moment the locusts passed through, a large number of caravans turned into skeletons.

"Leave the goods and run!"

Liu Qing roared, took the lead in pulling the horse's reins, and rushed in the direction he came from.

The bright sky was blackened by locusts.

When passing by Shiran, Liu Qing stretched out her hand to Shiran without any hesitation.

Shi Ran didn't show any pretense, stretched out a hand and held Liu Qing's hand tightly.

Liu Qing used her hands hard to pull Shi Ran onto the horse.

Shiran took advantage of the situation and sat on the horse.

Holding Shiran in his arms, Liu Qing glanced at the locust behind him, waved his horsewhip vigorously, and shouted: "Drive."

The horse neighed and rushed forward quickly.

What Liu Qing didn't notice was that before she waved the whip, the other horses in the caravan kept honking. Only the horses in their caravan remained motionless, as if they didn't feel the danger.

The locusts coming from behind were extremely fast. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to escape.

Something unusual happened.

Every time when Locust was about to catch up with Liu Qing and his party, he would be stunned for a while, as if he had lost his target.

After a while, these locusts seemed to suddenly find their target and continued to chase Liu Qing and the others.

After repeating this several times, Shi Ran didn't notice anything, and Liu Qing, who was running away in a hurry, didn't notice anything unusual.

In the hot and harsh environment, horses consume a lot of energy running.

A quarter of an hour later, the horses ridden by Shi Ran and Liu Qing were the first to lose their strength and fell to the ground.

Liu Qing hugged Shi Ran and landed firmly on the ground.

Shi Ran's calm and unsuitable voice came over, "Actually, my martial arts achievements are pretty good."

Liu Qing didn't even look at Shi Ran, put down Shi Ran, held a spear, and stared at the overwhelming locusts with eyes like a god, saying: "You run first."
