Chapter 362 An unexpected encounter in the dense forest
The sun rises and the moon sets, the moon sets and the moon rises,
Just as countless practitioners were rushing to the ancient secret realm announced by Ming Dianying, Ye Fan and Liu Mengying came to a dense jungle.
"Come on, big brother, try this maltose popsicle!"
As she spoke, Liu Mengying handed Ye Fan a cold popsicle, which she had made using the Naxuan Ring, which had a freezing effect.
“Really good~”
Ye Fan licked the maltose popsicle and praised it. It was noon now, and he had just finished practicing the mysterious movements in the Tianyuan Fragments. It was very hot, and this popsicle was exactly what he wanted...
"By the way, big brother, we mainly travel during the day and don't make much progress at night. Is this really okay?"
After a pause, Liu Mengying spoke again, "The Dragon Vein Heavenly Book map will only appear under the starlight at night...it can't be seen during the day!"
"OK!"
Ye Fan bit off a piece of maltose popsicle and said, "We have verified it before. The general direction will not deviate. That's enough... And I don't want to travel just for the sake of traveling. That would be so boring..."
"That's good!"
Hearing this, Liu Mengying sighed softly, "If I keep traveling at night and sleeping during the day, my schedule will be reversed. It's okay for a short time, but if it goes on for a long time, I will feel unwell!"
"Yeah!~"
...........
Just like that, Ye Fan and Liu Mengying continued to move forward in the direction indicated by the Dragon Vein Heavenly Book map.
One evening,
Although it was only evening, the sky was basically dark because of the heavy rain.
Ye Fan dug out a rather large cave on a rock wall with his bare hands, which was just enough for him and Liu Mengying to rest and cook.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, Ye Fan and Liu Mengying, who were cooking, stopped what they were doing because they both heard screams and sounds of metal clashing coming from far away amid the noise of the heavy rain, and the sounds were getting closer and closer.
Soon, several figures arrived not far below the stone cave where Ye Fan and Liu Mengying were.
The one staggering in the front was a burly man with disheveled hair, ragged clothes, and blood all over his body. Behind him were masked men in green holding sharp blades. In the dense forest under the rainstorm, the figures of the men in green were difficult to distinguish.
"Bang! Poof!~"
The ragged and injured strong man was soon caught up by the masked man in green, and was kicked to the ground, vomiting blood.
"Hand over the things and I'll leave you with an intact body!"
The masked man in green who was in the lead stepped forward and looked at the ragged and injured man with a deadly look.
"Who are you? Why do you know the route we take to transport the Mysterious Energy Stone... ahem~"
The ragged and injured strong man struggled out of the mud pit and looked at the masked man in green a few steps ahead with a puzzled look on his face.
The masked man in green had not responded yet, but Ye Fan and Liu Mengying in the cave on the stone wall showed surprised expressions, because they both recognized the voice of the ragged and injured strong man. It was Lei Yu who had not been seen for a long time.
"Humph!"
At this time, the masked man in green who was in the lead snorted coldly and shot a dart made of golden mysterious energy towards Lei Yu's abdomen.
The golden mysterious energy dart was about to pierce into Lei Yu's abdomen in the blink of an eye, and Lei Yu no longer had the strength to dodge it. However, when the golden mysterious energy dart was only a little bit away from Lei Yu's abdomen, it stopped abruptly and was caught by Ye Fan.
"what?"
"what?"
Not only Lei Yu, the six masked men in green also cried out in surprise, because they were completely unable to react to Ye Fan's appearance.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Ye Fan exerted a little force with his palm and instantly crushed the golden Xuanqi dart into pieces.
"It's really you, Lei Yu... Aren't you in prison in Blackwater Town? Why are you here?"
After Ye Fan saw the ragged man's appearance, he couldn't help but mutter.
"Ye...Ye Fan?"
Lei Yu quickly wiped his bloodshot eyes with a look of disbelief. He never dreamed that he would run into Ye Fan in such a remote place...
"Go ahead and kill that guy!"
At this time, the masked man in green who was leading the group roared, and golden aura surged throughout his body. He rushed straight towards Ye Fan, and the other masked men in green followed closely behind him.
"Bang! Click!"
"Ah! Sizzle!"
"Boom!~Boom~"
"what!"
..........
After a noise, the six masked men in green all screamed and fell to the ground, but the one who attacked was not Ye Fan, but Liu Mengying.
“Miss Liu… Miss Liu… is… so amazing!”
Lei Yu had a dazed look on his face, because those six masked men in green were all general-level masters, and the leader was already a second-grade marquis. Liu Mengying had just knocked down all six masked men in green in a flash, and Liu Mengying was holding an umbrella from beginning to end.
"It's me, Lei Yu. Why are you here? And you're being chased by a killer?"
Liu Mengying walked over with an umbrella and looked at the thunderstorm in confusion.
"This... is a long story..."
..........
After a cup of tea,
Ye Fan, Liu Mengying and Lei Yu were warming themselves by the fire in a newly dug cave on the stone wall. The heavy rain outside the cave showed no signs of abating. Ye Fan and Liu Mengying finally understood why Lei Yu, who was supposed to be imprisoned in Blackwater Town, appeared here.
It turned out that Lei Yu and other prisoners were arranged by Heishui Town to be porters for a caravan. This caravan was not simple at all. The goods they transported were the Xuanqi Stones, which were very important and precious to the Xuan practitioners.
This was not the first time that Lei Yu had done such heavy work. There were no problems in the previous trips, but the one half a month ago was attacked by masked men in green... The entire caravan, except Lei Yu, was killed by the masked men in green...
"Lei Yu, you are only at the seventh rank of the general rank... Two of those masked green-clothed men were at the marquis rank... The others were all at the fifth or sixth rank of the general rank... How could you have managed to fight them for more than half a month?"
Ye Fan glanced at the six corpses hanging outside the cave and was slightly surprised.
"Well... I ran away from home when I was a kid... I lived alone in the jungle for more than a month... Later I joined the army and carried out many missions in the jungle. Only then was I lucky enough to be able to deal with those masked green-clad men... But I've reached my limit..."
Lei Yu scratched his head. To be honest, he was a little scared now. If he hadn't met Ye Fan today, he would have died here...
"But big brother... don't you feel something is wrong?"
At this time, Liu Mengying spoke up. She also looked at the six bodies washed away by the rain outside the cave. "The Xuanqi stones that Lei Yu and his men were transporting were of ordinary quality, but they were just very large... I don't think they would be hunted down by two marquis-level assassins for more than half a month!"
