Chapter 5
Chapter 5 Frontier Camp
A group of about a hundred people rested in Pingshan for a while, and when the temperature was not as hot as before, they started on the road again.
Compared with just now, this time there is one more warlock in the team, even if it is just a low-level cultivation realm warlock, it seems to give these soldiers a little more hope, and their morale has increased a lot.
At the very least, after having a warlock, everyone no longer needs to worry about the problem of no drinking water on the road again. When resting at night, there is no need to worry about encountering some evil approaching and failing to notice.
The temperature dropped a bit, and coupled with a good rest, the team moved forward a lot faster than before.
“After passing Pingshan, we are close to the boundary of our country Yu. It will not take long before we can get out of this deserted area. Tonight, we estimate that we will still spend the night here. It is very likely that we will encounter evil. This is going to bother the mage!”
In the front of the team, Li Sheng and Zou Heng rode one after another, and Li Sheng said to Zou Heng who was walking behind him.
“this is necessary!”
After hearing this, Zou Heng spoke very simply.
The place where they are now is the buffer zone between the Yu and Qi countries. It is called a borderline wasteland. It is a loess all year round, the land is very barren, and there is a little drought and water shortage, so few people usually know how to do it. Activities in this area do not belong to either of the two countries.
It is a wilderness in itself, and because it is the border area between the two countries, there have been several wars between the two countries in the past. Therefore, this wasteland can be regarded as a battlefield with many corpses buried.
The wilderness and the battlefield will inevitably breed some evils, which may be attacked at night and have to be guarded.
When Zou Heng first came into this world, he thought it was the ghosts and monsters in the legends of the previous life. Although he was a little afraid, he felt that he might not be able to deal with the Fuze brought by the previous life. .
But when he really saw the evil in this world, Zou Heng discovered that although the fortunes brought by the previous life were good, it was really not so easy to deal with the evil in this world.
Zou Heng has a trace of the blood of the Witch clan, which was awakened before passing through his previous life. This trace of blood was brought to this world by him. This is the blessing brought by him from the past life, and it is also the first time he felt that he could be in the world. The confidence of this world to settle down.
Although there is not much information about the inheritance in his thin blood of the Witch clan, Zou Heng still understands the power of the Witch clan with such insignificant information about the inheritance.
Just such a very weak blood of the Witch clan has already brought Zou Heng a lot of benefits. More than two years ago, part of the reason why he was able to apprentice smoothly was also because his previous master was saving After getting off him, he discovered that his physique was a bit extraordinary, and he was able to apprentice so smoothly with an inquiring mind.
The only pity is that Zou Heng’s inheritance information is too little. Apart from knowing that he is of the blood of the Witch clan, he has also obtained a method to absorb the earth’s stale air, and there is almost nothing else.
That trace of the blood of the witch clan brought Zou Heng’s greatest change. It greatly strengthened his physique, making him far higher than ordinary people, surpassing many warlocks, whether it is power speed or physical defense. , Even the warrior.
As for the cultivation talent in the art of magic, Zou Heng is not sure whether it has anything to do with the blood of the witch clan on his body. There may be some bonuses in this respect. He does not have any obvious feelings about it now. The current cultivation base does not have the ability to explore this.
Riding on the horse, chatting with Li Sheng without a word, Zou Heng also basically figured out what happened before Li Sheng and others, and the danger he might face next.
Based on what he had known before and what he now learned from Li Sheng, Zou Heng reorganized the specific content of his mission.
The world he lives in nowadays is a world full of many countries. The country where Zou Heng and his previous masters are located is the country of Yu, a country with fairly good strength, and the area of the country is about half the size of the country where he was in his previous life. From left to right, in this world, the overall strength of the Yu Kingdom can be regarded as inadequate and more than inferior.
There is a country close to Yu Kingdom named Qi, which is stronger than Yu Kingdom and has a larger land area than Yu Kingdom. There have been many frictions between the two countries in the past.
Because although there is a gap in each other’s strength, the gap is not so large that it is irreparable, so there are wins and losses between each other.
About ten years ago, there was a battle between the Kingdom of Yu and the Kingdom of Qi. Yu was defeated. In order not to shake the foundation of the country, he could only choose peace talks. The final result was compensation and then sent protons, thus bringing the two countries to a truce.
The proton who was sent to Qi State for the first time was the object of Li Sheng’s escort, the injured His Royal Highness in the carriage.
Sending protons back to the country is of course not that simple. The main reason for Yu Kingdom’s special trip to bring the protons back from Qi Kingdom is that the current monarch of Yu Kingdom is about to die. The original monarch still had many heirs. However, due to various reasons over the years, the children of Yu’s current monarch basically died.
This means that if King Ren returns to the royal capital, he will become the crown prince in all likelihood, and it is very likely that he will inherit the throne of Yu Kingdom.
Bringing the protons of one’s own country from another country is certainly not a simple matter. Not to mention that before Li Sheng and the others arrived, the State of Yu had already made efforts to persuade those in power in Qi to let them Agreeing to release protons back to the country, I don’t know how much it cost.
During Li Sheng’s journey back home to protect Proton, he has already experienced several attacks. Some pretended to be gangsters to besiege and kill them. Some also wanted to ambush them with the advantage of terrain. There were also some warlocks who secretly performed spells. To use magic spells to directly kill the King of Nene.
Li Sheng can deal with the frontal conflict with his troops. But in the face of some weird spells, it is difficult for Li Sheng to take care of it. Thanks to the powerful warlocks in the team before, he has been able to reduce the dangers many times. It is a pity that the previous ones During the First World War, the original warlock in the team was accidentally killed by the opponent’s deliberate targeting.
After understanding this information, Zou Heng, who was riding on a horse, was still chatting with Li Sheng without a word, but he had already quickly figured it out in his heart.
The several battles Li Sheng and the others have encountered before were all in the territory of Qi, and it is estimated that they mainly came from the side of Qi.
After all, although Qi’s high-level power holders, thanks to the efforts of the Kingdom of Yu, agreed to release the King Ren and let him be welcomed back to the Kingdom of Yu again, there will inevitably be some people among them who do not want to let the King of Ren go back. It is just their opinions. It has not been adopted.
It is also possible that those who promised to be in power in the Qi state, the previous promise was only on the surface, and the real intention was not to allow King Ren to return to the kingdom of Yu.
But no matter what, after passing the border and wasteland, the danger from the Qi country can almost be relaxed, although there may be attacks from the Qi country next, but the number of people will definitely not be too many.
The next thing to consider is that after entering Yu Kingdom, those who are in Yu Kingdom and don’t want King Ren to come back.
The sons of the current country lord have almost died in recent years. Some of them are indeed accidents, but if they are all accidents, I am afraid to say it out. Among those villagers who don’t know a big character, few people believe it.
All the children of the current lord have died. Who should inherit the throne of Yu? Of course, those people who belonged to the royal bloodline were at least one of the members of the Zong clan to inherit the throne of Yu Kingdom.
Zou Heng came to this world for three years at most, and spent more than two years with his former master. Although he became more and more familiar with the world, he understood the situation of the upper echelons of Yu Kingdom. However, it is not very clear. After all, in such an environment similar to ancient times, the transmission and acquisition of information is a big problem for ordinary people.
Therefore, from the information he possessed, he was unable to specifically determine the specific dangers that he would face after arriving in the territory of Yu Kingdom. In this regard, he could find time to analyze it with Li Sheng.
In addition to these conceivable sources of danger, there may also be unpredictable dangers on the next journey, which come from various emergencies and evils.
These can only be carefully prevented, and after the encounter, we can find a way to solve it. There is no other way, especially the evil thing, it is impossible to predict when it will be encountered inexplicably.
This kind of unpredictable thing, compared with the already foreseeable danger, the threat will not be lower, but it may be more terrifying.
It’s nothing more than encountering common evils. If you encounter that kind of very powerful ones, it will really be bad luck. However, in places where there are crowds of people, under normal circumstances, you encounter that kind of particularly powerful evils. The possibility of difference is not big, and there is no need to worry too much.
Sorting out these things clearly in my mind, the time has passed. Seeing that the sun has set in the west and night is about to fall, the team should find a place to rest temporarily. Going at night is not only inefficient, but also encounters evil. The possibility will be great.
Under Li Sheng’s arrangement, the team stopped before dark, found a relatively flat place, and prepared to camp here temporarily.
Some people scattered around, looking for something to burn, prepared to light a few pairs of bonfires, and walked around by the way to see if there were any potential undiscovered dangers, while the rest began to use limited conditions and try their best Create an environment that is convenient for rest.
Zou Heng noticed that Li Sheng turned his gaze to him at this time, and he was not surprised. He directly reached out and took out two things from his bag and handed them to Li Sheng.
“This vermilion rope can surround the camp, but it’s only 20 meters, which shouldn’t be enough. I still have a few strange charms that can be pasted around!”
Li Sheng took two things, glanced at the bag on Zou Heng’s waist, and then said with a light smile: “A lot of times I want to know how many things are in your warlock’s bag!”
Hearing this, Zou Heng just smiled faintly, and did not answer.
