Chapter 319 Accident
Although the grassland at night is dark, it is the safest moment for Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang.
They are like nocturnal cheetahs, moving swiftly and cautiously through the night.
"Brother Fang, look! There is fire ahead!" Suddenly, Zhu Linlang pointed forward and whispered.
Fang Yue looked in the direction of her finger and saw a few faint fires flickering in the distance, as if someone was camping there.
"It seems they are herdsmen or caravans on the grassland." Fang Yue observed for a while and said, "Let's avoid them and don't cause any problems."
The two quietly bypassed the camp and continued on. OK.
After running around all night, they finally found a secluded place to rest before dawn.
Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were lying on the grass, looking up at the stars, their hearts filled with emotion.
“I didn’t expect these prairie barbarians to know how to use tricks. They are always monitoring us, but they still have to set up traps. Fortunately, Brother Fang, you are strong enough, otherwise we would have been caught.”< br>
Zhu Linlang sighed: "Brother Fang, how are your injuries?"
"It's not a problem, just some skin injuries." Fang Yue said lightly, but his brows wrinkled slightly, obviously Suffering from some kind of pain.
Seeing this, Zhu Linlang couldn't help but feel nervous, and said quickly: "Brother Fang, you'd better take a rest first, I'll keep watch."
Fang Yue nodded and said nothing more .
He really needs rest to regain his strength and spirit.
He knows that there is still a long way to go, and they must stay in top condition to deal with possible dangers.
Zhu Linlang watched Fang Yue close his eyes and his breathing gradually stabilized, and a warm current surged in his heart.
She knew that Fang Yue had always been her support and protector. In this crisis-ridden grassland, she felt extremely at ease with him by her side.
At the same time, Fang Yue began to meditate to heal his injuries.
In the battle with the barbarian royal family, the two were almost evenly matched, although they were forced to retreat in the end.
But he was also seriously injured. This was because he had practiced a variety of body-training techniques, and his body was far stronger than that of a warrior of the same level.
Fang Yue sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, and began to circulate the true energy in his body to repair the damaged meridians and body.
A look of pain flashed across his face, but it was quickly replaced by a look of determination.
Zhu Linlang stood guard at the side, her eyes full of worry.
Although she knew that Fang Yue's physical training technique was powerful, she still felt anxious when she saw him injured.
As time went by, Fang Yue's breath gradually stabilized, and his injuries slowly recovered under the nourishment of true energy.
He felt as if he was in a warm ocean, and every cell was cheering for joy, greedily absorbing the surrounding energy.
At this moment, the body-training technique in his body suddenly started to operate on its own, and a powerful energy surged out from his Dantian and quickly flowed throughout his body.
This energy was like a scourge, rushing through his meridians, as if it was going to completely transform his body.
Fang Yue was slightly shocked, but he immediately understood that it was his body-training technique that triggered a breakthrough at a critical moment.
He took a deep breath to stabilize his mind, and then began to guide this powerful energy according to the guidance of the technique.
With the continuous flow of energy, Fang Yue felt that every cell in his body was changing, as if he was undergoing a baptism of rebirth.
Pain and comfort are intertwined to form a wonderful feeling.
Zhu Linlang on the side also noticed something strange about Fang Yue.
She saw Fang Yue's face sometimes showing pain, and sometimes looking calm and peaceful.
Although she didn't know what happened specifically, she could feel that Fang Yue was going through a major change.
Finally, when the last trace of energy was completely absorbed by Fang Yue, he slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes shone with unprecedented light, as if there was a brand new power surging in his body.
"Brother Fang, what's wrong with you? Is your injury getting worse again?" Zhu Linlang asked with concern.
Fang Yue smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "No, my injury has healed. Moreover, I also got a blessing in disguise, and I have made a breakthrough in my physical training method."
As he spoke, he stood up and stretched his muscles.
Zhu Linlang was surprised to find that Fang Yue's movements were more agile and powerful than before, as if he had been reborn.
"Really? That's great!"
Zhu Linlang held Fang Yue's hand excitedly, with tears in her eyes, "Brother Fang, you are so amazing! "
Fang Yue patted the back of her hand gently and comforted: "Don't worry, everything will be fine with me here."
In the night, Zhu Linlang held Fang Yue's hand tightly, feeling the warmth of his palm, as if this was her most solid support.
"Brother Fang, what should we do now?" she asked, with a trace of confusion in her eyes.
Fang Yue raised his head and looked at the distant sky, where fish belly white had begun to appear, and a new day was about to begin.
He took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling the full energy and strength in his body, then turned to Zhu Linlang and said: "Let's find a safe place to hide first, and wait until dark before leaving. When they meet the next grassland tribe, they will find a way to get a crossbow."
Before dawn, they finally found a relatively secluded hill as a new hiding place.
Fang Yue used the surrounding natural environment to cleverly cover up their whereabouts.
During the day, they hid in the jungle behind the hills, quietly waiting for nightfall.
Fang Yue used this time to continue practicing and consolidate his breakthrough in physical training.
Zhu Linlang, on the other hand, was waiting silently, while vigilantly observing the movements around him.
Night finally came, and Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were ready to leave.
They plan to go to the nearby grassland tribes to look for opportunities to obtain a crossbow.
Under the cover of night, they shuttled across the grassland as nimbly as cheetahs.
After a period of searching, they discovered a large grassland tribe.
The two quietly approached the tribe, using the night as cover to sneak into the central area of the tribe.
They carefully avoided the patrolling soldiers and herdsmen, and finally found a sophisticated crossbow and some arrows in a tent.
Fang Yue picked up the crossbow and tried the feel, then nodded with satisfaction.
With this crossbow, they will be better able to deal with aerial surveillance and reduce the risk of being discovered.
The two quickly left the tribe and returned to the hills where they had been hiding.
In the next few days, they used crossbows to successfully shoot down several Swift Eagles, effectively reducing the pressure of being monitored.
At the same time.
A team of tens of thousands of prairie cavalry galloped on the vast grassland. The sound of the iron hooves of the prairie cavalry shook the earth, and the sound of tens of thousands of galloping horses was like thunder, resounding through the sky. Their target was exactly in the direction of Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang.
"Chief, all the Swift Eagles have been killed!" the messenger shouted loudly, his voice floating in the wind and reaching the ears of every cavalryman.
These prairie cavalry are the elite of the elite. They wear leather armor, hold spears and bows, and have firm and cold expressions on their faces.
Like a group of hungry cheetahs, they smelled the scent of their prey and pursued it all the way.
Now that Swift Eagle is dead, that means they have lost trace of Fang Yue and the others.
"Continue searching! They must be nearby, they can't run far!"
The cavalry leader ordered loudly, his voice full of coldness and determination.
These two people have stolen a valuable treasure from the grassland. We must not let them leave the grassland!
Following the leader's order, the prairie cavalry swept past like a storm. They spread out and continued to search for traces of Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang on the grassland.
"Pass my order to seal the five passes on the border."
The cavalry leader gave the order coldly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, scanning the face of each cavalryman,
"Since those two people have lost their traces, they must They will find a way to escape from the grassland. The five passes are their most likely escape routes. We must wait and wait for them to fall into the trap."
When the cavalry heard this, they took action immediately. They were as precise and fast as machines. , without any delay.
Teams of cavalry galloped towards the five passes. They had to set up defense lines in the shortest possible time to ensure that the two people could not escape.
~~~~~
Time flies by like a flash, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang gradually approached the border between the barbarian grassland and the Wei Dynasty.
During this long escape, the two experienced countless hardships and challenges, but they always maintained firm faith and determination, supported each other, and faced difficulties together.
"Brother Fang, how far are we from the border?" Zhu Linlang looked into the distance and asked with some anticipation.
Fang Yue took out the map and looked at it carefully, then pointed ahead and said: "It shouldn't be far away. At this speed, we should be able to reach the border tomorrow evening."
Hearing this, Zhu Linlang's face showed He smiled happily: "Great! We can finally leave this ghost place!"
Fang Yue also smiled, but he knew that leaving the grassland did not mean safety. They still need to cross the border and enter the Wei Dynasty to truly escape the pursuit of the prairie cavalry.
As night fell, the two found a secluded place to rest. Fang Yue took out the dry food and water and handed them to Zhu Linlang, and the two ate their dinner in silence.
"Brother Fang, do you think we can return to Wei Dynasty smoothly?" Zhu Linlang suddenly asked.
Fang Yue looked at her, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "We will definitely do it. As long as we are careful and don't expose our whereabouts, we will be able to return to Wei safely."
Zhu Linlang nodded, feeling full in his heart of trust and dependence. She knew that as long as Fang Yue was by her side, she would not be afraid no matter what difficulties she encountered.
The next morning, the two set off early and continued towards the border. They passed through patches of grassland and forests, and crossed several streams and mountains.
Finally, in the evening, they saw the towering mountains in front of them - the border between the Wei Dynasty and the barbarian grasslands.
"We are finally here!" Zhu Linlang shouted excitedly.
Fang Yue also showed a happy smile: "Yes, we are finally here."
But now is the most dangerous time.
Because in more than a month, they have been attacked by barbarians. It seems safe, but the opponent will definitely not give up and will definitely deploy heavy troops on this last line of defense.
As night fell, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang hid in a dense bush, quietly observing the situation ahead.
They could see the beacon tower on the border and the patrol of barbarian soldiers not far away.
"It seems that the defense is very tight, and there must be expert guards among them." Zhu Linlang whispered, with a hint of worry in his tone.
Fang Yue nodded, his eyes serious, "Yes, we can't risk rushing over directly."
He thought for a moment, and then said: "We need a careful plan. First of all, We need to find a suitable time to use the cover of night to approach the border. Then, I will find a way to lure away the defenders. You take the opportunity to cross the border."
After hearing this, Zhu Linlang frowned and said, "This is too dangerous, I can't let you take the risk alone."
Fang Yue smiled. Laughed and said: "Don't worry, I have a way to deal with it. As long as you can cross the border smoothly, I have a way to get out."
Zhu Linlang knew Fang Yue's ability, but she still couldn't help but worry, "Then you must be careful, I can't lose you."
Fang Yue nodded and patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry , I’ll be fine. Okay, now let’s wait until dark.”
As night falls, the stars on the grassland reflect the outline of the border mountains, and everything looks so quiet.
However, under this calm appearance, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were preparing their actions.
Zhu Linlang made a decision in her heart. She was going to hide it from Fang Yue and take the initiative to hold the enemy back and give him a chance to cross the border.
She knew that doing so was extremely risky, but she knew better what Fang Yue meant to her.
She couldn't let him take risks or make any mistakes.
The night was like ink, and Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were like two ghosts, approaching the border quietly.
They lay on a high ground and observed the border situation through night vision binoculars.
“It seems that the defense is very tight.”
Fang Yue whispered, his eyes wandering between the beacon tower and the patrolling soldiers, "We need to find a breakthrough."
Zhu Linlang nodded nervously, knowing that she needed to be extra careful in every next step.
Once discovered, they will face a life and death crisis.
Suddenly, Zhu Linlang noticed a detail: "Brother Fang, look over there."
She pointed to a relatively isolated beacon tower in the distance, "The guards there seem to be lax. , maybe we can break through from there.”
Fang Yue followed her finger and saw that indeed, the frequency of patrols around the beacon tower was significantly lower than in other places.
He nodded: "This is an opportunity, we have to seize it."
The two formulated a quick action plan.
Fang Yue will be responsible for distracting the guards, while Zhu Linlang takes the opportunity to slip across the border.
After everything was ready, they started taking action.
Fang Yue approached the beacon tower quietly, using the surrounding bunkers to get closer step by step.
But Zhu Linlang was hiding in the dark, waiting for the best time to cross.
At the critical moment when Fang Yue was about to implement his plan, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
Looking back, Zhu Linlang, who was supposed to be hiding in the dark, waiting for him to distract the guards, actually shot a rocket into the sky!
