Chapter 338 An Accident in the Forest
In the deep mountains, the remaining afterglow of the sky intertwined with the rising moonlight, and the sound of insects and frogs gradually appeared.
Shen Qing and others took out some dry food from the cave and ate it casually.
In the wilderness, this is the only condition, and there is no extra.
Shen Qing couldn't help thinking that it would be great if he had a storage bag, so that he wouldn't be too miserable in the countryside.
But this world didn't seem to have this concept, which made him feel a little pity.
Picking up a water bag and gulping down a few mouthfuls, Shen Qing looked at Shao Hongling and others and asked: "Do you have any ideas next?"
A Da and Xiao Man shook their heads self-deprecatingly and said: "With our cultivation level, it's a bit of a stretch to say that we can protect ourselves, so how can we have any ideas? Naturally, we will listen to the adults and the young lady."
Shao Hongling pondered for a while, pointed to the end point on the map and said: "Sir Shen, why don't we hurry up and get to the intersection of these routes in the shortest time, and then find a hidden place to hide, so as to escape "Waiting for the work."
"This meeting to quell the rebellion will first look at the top 100 survivors, and then the ranking will be determined by military merit. So in my opinion, as long as you can survive within the top 100, you will not lose anything. By the time of the final battle, the surviving martial artists will have accumulated a lot of merit. If you snatch them at that time, it will be twice the result with half the effort."
Shen Qing nodded and agreed: "What you said makes sense, I think so too."
In his eyes, this meeting to quell the rebellion is not much different from the "chicken game" in his previous life, it's nothing more than a matter of strategy.
Now his cultivation has broken through the spiritual realm.
Such a cultivation can't say that he can walk sideways in the meeting to quell the rebellion, but there are indeed not many who can threaten him.
If he survives a little longer, it will definitely be foolproof.
For him, this meeting to quell the rebellion may be a good opportunity to be a marquis and a prime minister.
"You rest tonight, and tomorrow we will set off and head west."
"Yes, sir."
Shen Qing explained some details on the road, and the few people stopped talking.
Shao Hongling and the others fell asleep one after another, while Shen Qing, as usual, continued to practice diligently, refining the wish beads he had robbed.
He was surrounded by spiritual energy.
There was no conversation all night.
When the next day dawned, a golden halo was projected from the cave entrance.
Shen Qing opened his eyes faintly and exhaled a long breath of turbid air.
After a night of practice, he felt refreshed and his mental state was better than ever before.
A big bird flew onto a branch outside the cave entrance, with colorful feathers and chirping.
Everyone woke up, and Xiao Man unexpectedly saw the bird and exclaimed: "This bird is so beautiful."
He had just finished speaking.
Pah!
A scorching breath flashed over his head and hit the fat bird.
The fat bird's head burst with a dull sound, and its body fell to the ground weakly.
Shen Qing stepped forward and took the bird in his hand. He looked at it for a few times and found that it was indeed not small, as big as half a chicken.
He said with satisfaction: "It is very beautiful. You are in for a treat. We will roast it and eat it later."
Xiao Man did not expect that Shen Qing would kill the bird so quickly just because he said it casually. He was speechless.
Even though he had not gone into the mountains to hunt for so many years, Shen Qing, who was born as a hunter, could easily deal with these birds.
Shen Qing quickly put the fat bird on the grill, sprinkled some salt and roasted it.
After waiting for a while, a wisp of light smoke with an attractive aroma slowly drifted in the air.
The skin of the fat bird was roasted golden and crispy.
Shen Qing tore off a bite, but the meat inside was still tender.
"Eat it." Shen Qing joked: "You are lucky. With me here in the deep mountains, you will not be hungry."
After waking up, Shao Hongling and the others did not hold back. They tore off the meat and ate it seriously.
It must be said that Shen Qing's cooking skills are indeed good.
A big fat bird was quickly eaten clean by them, leaving only a skeleton.
Ah Da got some soil and poured it on the fire, putting out the fire in the mountain.
…
In the distant forest, a team of martial artists were running for their lives in the woods.
Their clothes had long been torn by branches, revealing traces of blood, and their shoes were lost at some point, so they could only walk barefoot over thorns and gravel.
“Hurry! Hurry up!”
A man suddenly shouted in the forest, his tone very anxious.
Shang Jin looked back and saw a series of black shadows gathering behind him, biting him tightly.
Some of them kept groaning in pain and falling to the ground.
But Shang Jin did not hesitate or pause at all, and continued to run forward with others.
They came from Yuezhao City in the north of Da Zhou.
Originally, they planned to hide near the starting point to avoid the limelight.
Unexpectedly, the supervision team had entered the scene at dawn and pulled them out.
After a fierce battle, their team suffered heavy losses and only some people survived.
Even more unfortunate was that after being caught by the supervision team, they encountered two small teams in succession.
Shang Jin was sweating profusely at this time, and he was exhausted from fighting all the way.
He fell into despair.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps in front of him, which made Shang Jin's heart tighten?
He quickly stopped and looked in the sunlight in the woods. He saw three men and one woman blocking the front, and their eyes were flashing coldly.
"Everyone be careful!" Shang Jin reminded in a low voice, and at the same time drew out the short knife from his waist, ready to fight.
"What should we do next?" Someone asked in a low voice.
Shang Jin was silent for a moment, and was also confused. He couldn't figure out the routine of these people in front of him: "I don't know."
Shen Qing looked them up and down and found that they were covered in blood, as if they had just fought back. He frowned slightly.
As he was talking, five or six people rushed over.
The leader was slightly stunned when he saw Shen Qing and others, and then said happily: "Today's luck is really good. I didn't expect to meet another group."
Shang Jin hurriedly reminded: "Be careful. This group of them are almost in the realm of nourishing qi, and the leader is still in the realm of qi sea. They are very cruel. Many of our brothers have died in their hands."
The leader saw the clothes of Shen Qing and others, and the bulging chests of each of them, and knew that they were wealthy.
If they could kill them, there would definitely be a large reward.
Driven by desire, he winked at the people around him.
The people around him understood.
The leader licked his dry lips, turned around silently, and raised the axe in his hand high.
The Jingluan Society was originally a place of fighting, and the strangers I met were all the credit of walking.
If I don't kill them, I will be killed by them sooner or later.
It's better to take action now.
Shen Qing smiled and said, "Why are you holding the axe so high?"
"Nothing, just killing you, brothers, go ahead."
