Chapter 1221 Rescue from a foreign land (two chapters in one)
In the air, Lin Li was flying like lightning, and the airflow roared across his cheeks.
In just a moment, he left the prosperity of human civilization behind him and began to step into a barren land.
Although this area was rarely visited, after a long flight, he still saw some caravans traveling between cities.
In order to make a living, these caravans often have to take risks on these dangerous routes.
Lin Li identified the direction of the Hengduan Mountains and flew forward without any delay in the middle.
After about an hour, the Hengduan Mountains were still out of reach.
Because I have been to Hengduan Mountains once before, I can estimate the arrival time in my mind.
According to the current travel speed, it is not difficult to reach the Hengduan Mountains in one afternoon. However, there is little hope to see the vast waters in the mountains today.
So, Lin Li planned to do his best to catch a distance this afternoon, and as for the remaining itinerary, it will be left to continue tomorrow.
When I was in Shuanghe City, it was unbearable for heat. At this moment, when I left the city and approached the Hengduan Mountains, the temperature around me dropped significantly. The cool breath refreshed and made Lin Li feel refreshed.
While flying, a dense bush was flying across a dense bush, and suddenly, a roar of beasts came from not far away.
He looked in the sound and saw two extremely ferocious beasts fighting fiercely at the foot of a small hill ahead.
Lin Li has long been accustomed to scenes like fighting against strange beasts.
Under normal circumstances, he was busy on the road and didn't need to pay attention to it.
But at this moment, not far from where the strange beasts fought, a group of humans were hiding behind a huge rock and falling into a desperate situation.
If they flee rashly at this time, they are likely to be noticed by the two strange beasts who are fighting fiercely. Once the strange beasts rush over, everyone will lose their lives.
But if they continue to hide behind the huge rock, as the two alien beasts change their combat positions, they may be affected at any time, exposing their tracks, and ultimately they will still be unable to escape the alien beast's minions.
Lin Li hovered in the air, his eyes swept back and forth between the two strange beasts fighting fiercely and the group of trembling humans, thinking to himself.
"These people are so lucky, but they seem to be a little lucky."
After a little thought, he decided to fly towards the crowd at stake.
At the foot of the mountain, towering trees are lined with layers of fallen leaves spread out on the ground. After years of accumulation and decay, the soil has become extremely fertile.
If someone walks under a tree, he can clearly smell the unique atmosphere of the mixture of leaves and soil.
At this moment, a huge pangolin beast was fighting with a flexible and agile wild boar beast.
Every time the pangolin waves its extremely sharp claws, it can bring about a powerful storm, which is terrifying.
And the wild boar beast that seemed fat and clumsy was actually quick to move. It was always waiting for an opportunity to find a counterattack in the face of the fierce attack of the pangolin.
Two ferocious beasts fought back and forth for a long time, but because of their equal strength, it was difficult to decide the winner for a while.
Suddenly, the psionic fluctuations around the pangolin beast began to surging violently, and then the nails on its claws quickly grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The wild boar beast was extremely alert. When it sensed the fluctuations of the enemy's psychic energy, it keenly inferred that it was about to face an extremely fierce attack.
So, it instantly stimulated its own awakening ability, and a brown light suddenly shone on its body.
At the same time, the soil under her feet seemed to have life, constantly surging and spreading towards its body.
In the blink of an eye, the soil wrapped the wild boar beast all over and turned into an indestructible thick armor.
The sharp and harsh sound of breaking through the air sounded, and the fingernails of the pangolin beast actually broke away from its claws, shooting towards the face of the wild boar beast like a sharp arrow.
These sharp nails are two meters long. At this moment, under the sunlight, the surface is shining with a faint golden aura, like an enlarged version of an arrow.
The wild boar beast was prepared for a long time and quickly used its body skills to avoid it.
Although it has used its superpowers to put armor on itself, it still feels that it is not safe enough, so it chooses to avoid it with all its might.
However, although it reacted quickly, it failed to completely avoid all attacks.
Several nails hit it hard, instantly piercing through the armor and penetrated deeply into its body, causing it to suffer some minor injuries.
If it had not been used to defend against superpowers in advance, this fierce attack from the pangolin beast would have very likely killed the wild boar beast.
The empty nails continued to fly into the distance and eventually hit a huge stone.
What is shocking is that the seemingly sturdy giant rock was easily shattered like tofu under the powerful impact of the fingernails of the pangolin beast.
As the huge rock shattered, the humans hiding behind were completely exposed and fled in panic.
The two strange beasts that were fighting fiercely stopped attacking at the same time when they saw humans. Their fierce eyes turned to the pale humans.
There are about twenty people in this group, and they do not look like ordinary caravans, and they look more like bodyguards protecting their employers.
One of the middle-aged men, about 1.8 meters tall and over forty, shouted anxiously after everyone was exposed, "The strange beast has discovered us, everyone runs separately!"
After saying that, everyone quickly divided into four teams according to the pre-developed emergency plan and ran in different directions.
The middle-aged man protected his employer and ran desperately towards the dense bushes in the distance.
However, as soon as they ran a few hundred meters, the wild boar beast quickly appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately held the weapon in his hand and said to his companion, "I'll stop this strange beast, you can take the prince away quickly."
A guard holding a long sword showed despair and said, "Brother Chen, there are strange beasts in other directions, and they can't escape at all!"
When Chen Jie heard this, he hurriedly glanced at other directions and stood there on the spot.
I originally thought that only these two strange beasts were fighting and everyone was scattered to break through, and there would always be a team of people who could escape by chance.
But unexpectedly, when things came to an end, another strange beast appeared.
More than a dozen strange beasts quickly formed a circle of encirclement, completely blocking everyone's escape path.
At this moment, everyone was trapped in one place and could not escape.
The pangolin beast and the wild boar beast each took one side. The other strange beasts that appeared should be their younger brothers, who were honestly guarding the side, staring at everyone with a fierce look.
Humans are trapped and in desperate situations, the two strongest beasts seem to be about to start discussing how to divide the "delicious" in front of them.
Chen Jie was in an extremely heavy mood, and his companions were filled with despair.
The employer said to the hired guards with apologies, "I'm sorry to everyone to implicate you and me to die here."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie immediately shook his head and said, "Since we have eaten this bowl of rice and taken your money, if something really happens, we will naturally not leave you behind."
It's just a pity that the reward has not been spent yet. "Just as everyone fell into despair and thought they would die undoubtedly, a clear and calm voice suddenly came from the sky.
"I just beat you to the death, but now I feel so happy. This change is really big..."
When the beasts and humans present heard this, they raised their heads in shock and looked into the sky.
I saw a figure standing in the sky, and the other party looked only in his early twenties.
The pangolin beasts and wild boar beasts saw Lin Li, the original pride and ferocity in their eyes disappeared without a trace, replaced by deep fear.
They felt an unparalleled powerful pressure from Lin Li, which made their hearts tremble, as if they were facing an invincible natural enemy.
"Roar..."
Immediately afterwards, the beast roar sounded, and the pangolin beast and the wild boar beast turned around and fled without hesitation.
When they ran away, they did not forget to call on the strange beast brothers who were still in a daze.
The little brothers of the strange beasts came to their senses and immediately followed their boss, running desperately.
Lin Li looked at the fleeing beasts and did not choose to chase them.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
After all, his main purpose of this trip was not hunting, and saving these people was the top priority. Moreover, he still needed to seize the time to rush forward. It was a waste of time to chase and kill the strange beast that fled.
Chen Jie and his group originally thought they would die in this wild place today, but they never expected the situation to reverse suddenly. This sudden turnaround was really incredible.
The strange beasts fled very quickly. They mistakenly thought that Lin Li would chase them, so they tried their best to escape.
In just two or three minutes, it disappeared without a trace.
Chen Jie and his group saw that the strange beast was completely gone, and many people cried with joy.
The guard holding a machete murmured to himself, "We are saved, I can't believe I can still live..."
Another guard wearing gray linen cloth, in order to confirm that this was not a dream, raised his hand and squeezed his face hard. The severe pain made him scream.
Lin Li lowered his flight altitude, looked at the rescued people, and spoke.
"Before the sun has not yet set, you can leave here quickly and find a safe place to settle..."
Chen Jie clasped his fists and thanked Lin Li with gratitude, "Young Master, thank you for helping you. We will never forget you."
Lin Li waved his hand and said calmly, "I have something to do to hurry up. Don't waste time, go out quickly."
Chen Jie originally wanted to ask his benefactor's name and residence so that he could repay him in the future, but when he saw Lin Li's anxious look on his way, he swallowed the words he said.
Then, he hurriedly greeted his companions and took the employer to run away.
Lin Li looked at the direction of everyone leaving and frowned slightly.
After thinking for a while, he followed, came to everyone, and stopped them.
Chen Jie looked puzzled and didn't understand why his savior stopped them.
Soon, Lin Li gave an explanation.
He pointed to a bush in the distance and said to everyone, "There is a strange beast hidden in the bush over there. With your strength, it is not easy to deal with it.
Even if it can be solved, there will be casualties in the end. ”
Chen Jie was shocked after hearing this.
He originally planned to lead everyone to hide in the dense bushes. If Lin Li hadn't reminded him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Then which direction should we go?" Chen Jie asked anxiously.
Lin Li raised his hand and pointed to a grass in front of the right, saying, "I came from there just now, there were no strange beasts there.
After you enter the grass, keep moving forward and never change direction, so that you have a great chance to leave this dangerous area. ”
Chen Jie nodded repeatedly, thanked Lin Li again, and then led everyone to run quickly towards the grass that Lin Li pointed at.
Seeing that everyone followed his advice, Lin Li felt a little relieved. After watching them enter the grass successfully, he turned around and left with confidence.
Chen Jie and his group ran hard in the grass. The grass was extremely stuffy, but compared with the previous life and death crisis, this stuffy heat was nothing.
They kept Lin Li's advice in mind and kept moving forward in a straight line.
After more than half an hour of difficult trek, they finally walked out of the grass.
The eyes suddenly became clear, and a team member suddenly pointed to the front excitedly and shouted, "Brother Chen, look, there is a stream in front of us, we can quench our thirst."
Chen Jie nodded and everyone immediately ran towards the stream.
The kettle they carried with them had already been empty before. It is undoubtedly a great blessing for everyone to have water replenishment.
Everyone came to the stream and were surprised to find human footprints.
This discovery gave everyone hope, which shows that someone has been here before and is relatively safe.
Chen Jie said to the employer with a smile on his face, "It seems we have arrived at a safe place."
The young man, who was guarded, called the prince, also responded with a smile, "Yes, thanks to the guidance of the benefactor before, we were able to escape from danger..."
After drinking a lot, everyone filled the kettle.
After a brief rest for a few minutes, they continued to set off.
Although I felt that this place was relatively safe, the previous experience of passing by Death made everyone feel scared. Everyone was very cautious and agreed that it would be safer to continue rushing before dark.
As time goes by, as the sun is about to set, Chen Jie and his party encounter a huge caravan.
This caravan has many guards accompanying him, and walking with such a caravan, the safety factor is greatly improved.
Everyone could finally rest. They cleared out a clearing, then collected some dry wood nearby and set off a bonfire.
In the evening, the temperature gradually dropped, and everyone sat around the bonfire, feeling the warmth emitted by the flames, and felt the joy of the aftermath of the disaster.
At this time, Chen Jie and his group began to recall the dangers they encountered before, and everyone started chatting with each other.
Some people speculated about the identity of their life-saving benefactor, and some people said they might be a cultivation genius from a big family in Shuanghe City.
But as soon as this speculation was proposed, it was opposed by many people.
Everyone thinks that such a young and powerful cultivation genius is extremely rare even in the prosperous imperial capital. Shuanghe City is just a small place, and such a person is unlikely to appear.
