Chapter 8: Going west
As the night became darker, the patrolling cavalry and infantry finally relaxed, and the frequency of round trips was greatly reduced.
"Let's go! It's too late to dawn."
Zhang Dapeng gritted his teeth and after two hours of observation, he found that there was a five-minute gap in the cavalry and infantry patrol.
After climbing over the fence, there is a five-meter-wide road, and then there are more than a thousand meters of fertile fields in the territory. Outside the fertile fields is the grassland.
The forest was too terrifying, and the militiamen were in teams and did not dare to go there during the day, so they could only escape from the grassland.
Taking the opportunity, Zhang Dapeng jumped onto the giant wooden fence, flipped over, crossed the dirt road as fast as possible, and drilled into the wheat field.
The wheat seedlings here are more than one meter high. Zhang Dapeng crawled forward in the ridges of the fields. He was about to climb to the end of the wheat field, just as Zhang Dapeng was about to get up, he kept coming through the sky.
"Swoosh, bang!"
The sharp arrow shot on the mountain-piercing axe on his back, making a crisp sound.
"So fierce!"
The force of the sharp arrow was hundreds of pounds. Zhang Dapeng hit the dog and ate a lot of soil in his mouth.
"Enemy attack, alarm..."
Not far away, the secret whistle and scout shouted, and the whole person rushed over quickly.
"Fight, there is no way out."
Zhang Dapeng turned over, drew his long sword in his hand, and ran out of the wheat field with an acceleration of 100 meters and 5 seconds.
Resist? Isn’t that asking for death?
As long as no one blocks the road, you can go as far as you can.
Whoosh...
The secret whistle here reacted too quickly, and in the blink of an eye, two more arrows shot in a burst of light.
Fortunately, Zhang Dapeng wore silver-wire soft armor, otherwise the grass would have grown on his head.
But even so, his back was still hit by a sharp arrow, and it was definitely a piece of purple.
"run……"
"Run again."
Zhang Dapeng didn't even have the courage to look back, rushed into the grass and moved forward quickly.
There was only the sound of squeaking the weeds in his ears. Zhang Dapeng didn't care that his face was scratched by the sharp grass leaves, and rushed forward desperately, and tripped by the vines on the ground several times.
Having rushed out more than two thousand meters, Zhang Dapeng's speed finally slowed down, and running rapidly in the grass was too exhausting.
It was so dark that they probably wouldn't chase after him.
Zhang Dapeng stood still and was about to look back when a huge sonic boom sounded out of thin air behind him.
“Wait…”
Before he could react, he had already risen into the air and fell five meters away.
"puff……"
Zhang Dapeng, who fell to the ground, squirted out a mouthful of blood.
What caused him a sharp arrow was a sharp arrow, and the tip of the arrow shot through the axe that opened the mountain axe, pierced through the soft silver wire armor, stabbing his shoulder blades.
If not two thousand meters away.
If there is no axe on the back.
If you are not wearing silver wire soft armor.
If Zhang Dapeng does not have the physical strength of 60, the strength of 30.
He is already cold now.
The only one who shot this arrow was the hero unit under the new lord.
Zhang Dapeng did not dare to stay, but he did not dare to stand up. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and crawled towards the distance.
More than ten seconds later, two figures came into the air on the blades of grass and landed at the place where he was injured just now.
"Where are people? They are not dead?"
"I didn't expect that there was such a powerful opponent in this simple territory."
"Let's go back. This person is even more powerful than we think. I'm afraid he's a melee hero, so be careful."
"It's a pity that it's too dark, otherwise I really want to find this guy. There's no way, let's go."
The two of them whispered a few words and jumped into the air on the blades of grass.
Zhang Dapeng did not give up his alertness and lay motionless in the grass for more than ten minutes.
The blood on his back attracted unknown insects. Fortunately, he had silver wire soft armor, which allowed him to avoid being bitten.
He quietly supported himself and looked in the direction of the territory.
There has been peace back there, but the number of soldiers patrolling has increased again.
"Let's go, don't stay here for a long time."
Zhang Dapeng pulled out the sharp arrow with difficulty, stuffed it into the bag, bent down and walked quickly.
Run, heading west.
Run again and head west.
…………
"The sky gate interrupts the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flows eastward to return here."
"The green mountains on both sides of the straits are facing each other, and the lonely sail is coming from the sun."
On the huge rock on the river bank, there was a ragged savage standing.
He had dark skin, strong and upright skin, and he recited a good poem to the surging river water in front of him.
Fifteen days!
In order to escape those terrifying existences, Zhang Dapeng traveled day and night, except for eating and sleeping, and ran for more than 4,000 miles with his super physical strength and extraordinary will.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to run away, but that there is no road ahead. If you walk again, you have to go into the mountain. What can you do when you enter the mountain? Hunting?
He wants to farm, farming is the way to rest and recuperate, and hunting cannot be done!
This place is very good. The north is a river that is thousands of meters wide, the west is a towering mountain, and the south and east are vast grasslands, and the end of the grassland is forest.
Zhang Dapeng wanted to find a junction between forests and grasslands, so that he could not only farm and log wood, but also escape into the mountains to hide if he had a powerful enemy.
"Walk!"
Zhang Dapeng sorted out the bag on his lower back and walked towards the junction of the grassland and forest with a treasure knife.
From the river to the south, the terrain gradually rises.
It is summer, and the grassland is extremely prosperous. The ordinary grass is more than two meters high. Some perennial shrubs are as high as four or five meters, thicker than a human arm.
The weeds are strong, wild flowers are embellished, insects are singing and birds are flying.
It should have been a beautiful scenery, but when you walk in the grass, you can see only a dozen meters away. You must be careful of the unknown mosquitoes and poisonous snakes. Zhang Dapeng was trembling along the way.
Fortunately, the terrain gradually rose, and the towering trees in the distance were used as indicators, otherwise he would have to get lost.
After walking about ten miles, the weeds gradually became sparse, and tall trees stood abruptly.
"Let's just go!"
Zhang Dapeng stood among two big trees with a diameter of more than one meter and decided to set up a camp here.
Both of these big trees are more than ten meters tall, with dense branches and leaves, covering nearly 100 square meters of surrounding trees. Moreover, the terrain here is quite high, so you don’t worry about flooding when it rains.
Of course, the most important thing is that there is a piece of Cordyceps sinensis nearby.
When he was in the territory, Zhang Dapeng was so impressed by Cordyceps. Without this thing in summer, ordinary people couldn't even hold on for a night.
First, let the black-printed spider in the cage be released, tell it not to run around, and then build nets on the nearby big trees to eat.
For so many days, Zhang Dapeng and the black-printed spider have had feelings for each other. At the beginning, this little guy was the size of a thumb, and now he is as big as a child's fist.
Of course, the most important thing is that this little guy is spiritual and can understand his words, so he can be at ease.
Seeing the black-printed spider climbing into the tree, Zhang Dapeng took off all his equipment.
Two stainless steel mountain-opening axes (with handle).
A beast-patterned treasure knife and a blue-ray dagger.
Two feet of machetes.
One piece of silver-wire soft armor and two water hyacinths.
Two axes (sessentless).
Three hoes (sessentless).
Two shovels (sessentless).
Three sickles (sticky).
Thirty arrows.
An alloy arrow.
There are several unknown edible fruits.
Three kilograms of wheat seeds.
There are several gourd seeds, several black chestnut fruit cores, and several green potato fruit seeds.
