"be careful!"
Jia Chao warned, took out a spear with an iron tip from the spiritual sea space and handed it to Xingyue.
He himself took out a crossbow that he had not used for a long time, raised his hand and shot an arrow.
"Ah!" A figure echoed.
The person who was hit by the arrow came out of the cave above. It is estimated that he was ambushed in the mountain road in advance.
Seeing that You Chen was guarding the gate, he ran down from above and was about to attack from behind, but he didn't expect to be shot by Jia Chao with an arrow.
Seeing that Jia Chao had weapons that could kill people from a distance, everyone jumped down from the plank road and disappeared into the woods after a while.
Xingyue, who came to support with a spear, saw this and did not rush forward to catch up. He just scanned all directions vigilantly.
Jia Chao waved to You Chen, "Brother, come down! Have you forgotten that we are still here? They don't dare to attack us outside the Forbidden Spirit Land!"
You Chen glanced at the top of the plank road, then silently stepped back from the plank road and followed Xingyue to Jia Chao's side.
"Sorry, I didn't help. Instead, you were targeted!"
Jia Chao shook his head and said, "You did a great favor by stopping us in time! Do you think they wouldn't have targeted us without you?"
You Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment, and agreed with Jia Chao's statement.
"In this case, the three of us might as well go together!"
Jia Chao nodded, "Then let's find a place to rest for the night first!" He pointed to the gradually darkening sky.
You Chen shook his head, "No! It's best to leave now! Not many people dare to follow us at night!"
Jia Chao waved his hand, shaking the crossbow in his hand and said: "If you can't see far at night, this magical weapon of mine will lose its advantage!"
You Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "Okay! Just listen to Brother Achao!"
The plan was decided, and the three of them quickly found an empty space where there was no one, and started to cook without hesitation.
In order to thank You Chen for saving his life, Jia Chao treated him to fish fillet hotpot.
The scent soon attracted a group of gluttonous hungry ghosts, but no one dared to approach.
It was also the first time for You Chen to eat such food. He could still retain a little reserve at first, but gradually he let go.
After eating and drinking enough, the child's belly was as big as a pregnant woman.
"Brother Achao, do you want anyone in your tribe?" You Chen asked in a low voice after wiping his mouth.
Jia Chao: "Do you want to come to our tribe?"
You Chen: "Think!"
Jia Chao: "What about your own tribe?"
You Chen: "My own tribe is finished! Now I'm the only one left!"
"Okay!" Patting You Chen on the shoulder, Jia Chao said generously: "Come to our tribe, I guarantee you won't go hungry every day!"
You Chen smiled "hehe" and said, "Can you find me a partner?"
Hearing this, Jia Chao was stunned for half a second, "Okay!"
…
At night, Jia Chao gently put away the animal skin tent and woke You Chen up.
"Ah Chaoda..." Just as You Chen was about to ask something, Jia Chao covered his mouth.
Not long after, the three of them stepped onto the plank road on the mountain wall.
Before going up the plank road, Jia Chao went to take a look at the notice board that You Chen pointed to before.
The notice board explains the precautions for entering the mountain road in two languages, one is Senluo language, and the other is the language of the spirit beast tribe that Jia Chao guesses.
It turns out that this mountain road is called [Mingyi Ancient Road], and it was originally part of the Senluo battlefield. It was mainly fought between spirit beasts without soul power and ordinary people.
But later both sides discovered that the number of people who died every year from various mechanisms on the ancient road was far greater than the number of people who died from fighting.
Therefore, it was abandoned by the Senluo Presbyterian Church and the Spirit Beast Tribe at the same time. Later, the Mingyi Ancient Road became a passage for ordinary people to sneak across the Lamuge Mountains.
As for the reason for smuggling, it is probably to pursue some unusual huge profits.
The warning content on the notice board is very simple, and the main idea is:
The Mingyi Ancient Road is a forbidden spirit realm, where soul power and soul separation cannot be used. Once dead, there is no way to resurrect. People who come and go please pay attention to safety.
In order to enhance the persuasiveness, this signboard is located exactly within the realm of forbidden spirits.
For most people, when they can clearly read the words above, the soul power in their bodies has been blocked!
And this kind of ban does not only target the soul power, but also for those who have obtained the body tempering inheritance, their flesh and blood power will also be banned.
For example, Jia Chao, who tempered his body with flesh and blood spirit techniques every day, also felt that his power was being suppressed.
But there is still good news, that is, Jia Chao's night vision ability obtained from Xiaodu has not been banned.
Relying on this ability, Jia Chao, Xingyue and You Chen avoided the ambushes one after another, successfully passed through the narrow cave and entered the space behind the cave.
What is very strange is that behind the cave halfway up the mountain wall is not a dark underground, but an endless desert!
There is nothing in the desert, no trees, no grass, no water, no people.
If he hadn't turned his head and could see the dark hole, Jia Chao would have doubted whether he had traveled through time again.
The depth of the cave is at most two kilometers, and it winds around for a long time. Even if you can pass through the mountain peak, it shouldn't be a desert outside!
Shouldn't the back of the mountain still be a mountain?
Seeing Jia Chao stop moving forward, You Chen reminded him in a low voice:
"Brother Achao, we can't stay here for too long! It will be very troublesome if we are discovered by those people in the cave!"
Jia Chao put away his thoughts and took the lead towards the desert.
This journey lasted for nine days and ten nights.
The desert is so big that there is no end in sight.
Both Jia Chao and Xingyue have their soul power banned, and their soul space cannot be used.
This resulted in the three people having completely insufficient food and water, and they were only supported by a little dried meat and water carried by Youchen.
This situation was something Jia Chao did not expect.
But what is very gratifying is that You Chen is a very loyal person and did not show any dissatisfaction because Jia Chao and the others ate his food along the way.
The three of them walked all the way in the desert, and it wasn't until the tenth day that they finally saw a glimmer of hope.
At the end of the field of vision, a small hill appeared.
This change in terrain often means that we are about to reach the edge of the desert.
At this time, You Chen had run out of food, his originally large luggage was empty, and the three of them had not had a drop of water for two days.
Fortunately for Jia Chao, the Flesh and Blood Spirit Technique finally made his body different from ordinary people.
But You Chen and Xingyue couldn't. You Chen was so hungry that his eyes turned black, and Xingyue also looked very weak.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the hill, Jia Chao, even though he was exhausted, still held You Chen in one hand and Xingyue in the other and ran towards it.
When he finally arrived in front of the hillock, Jia Chao opened his eyes wide and said:
"Grass!"
Hearing Jia Chao's scolding, You Chen, who was originally unconscious, opened his eyes.
When he saw the scene in front of him, he also let out a curse.
"It's over! Brother Ah Chao! We're going the wrong way!"
