Chapter 21 Arriving at the Heaven-making City(1/2)
Seeing that the departure was about to begin, the male cultivator of the Spirit Sect ordered a horse to lead over.
Then, he smiled and said:
"This journey is long, and I saw that Fellow Daoist Fang did not prepare the riding tools, so why not just ride my horse."
Fang Xing knew that because Tang Xiaofeng could tell at a glance that he was a monk of the Wei Ji Sect, the man didn't ask directly, and the other party regarded himself as a member of the Wei Ling Sect.
Because of the other party's attitude and agitated, Fang Xing no longer wanted to misunderstand.
Besides, the task has been finalized, and there is no need to hide it anymore.
So Fang Xing smiled and declined:
"I appreciate the kindness of fellow Daoist Ou, and suffocating our body is also part of our cultivation.
So, there is no need to mount.”
After some conversation before, Fang Xing learned that the person's name was Ou Guangzhi.
The previous female cultivator was named Ou Xiaohui, and the two were brother and sister.
When Ou Guangzhi heard this, he looked at Fang Xing with surprise.
It is obvious that Fang Xingwei Jishi's identity as a monk was somewhat beyond his expectations.
However, it was only a moment of surprise that Ou Guangzhi's expression quickly returned to normal.
Seeing that Fang Xing didn't need a horse, he greeted the two of them.
Then he turned over and walked towards the convoy.
After a while, the convoy began to move.
Seeing this, Fang Xing and Tang Xiaofeng also followed the team toward the outside of Yongdong City.
Fang Xing originally thought that the speed of a carriage that uses animal power was destined to be unable to get faster.
At least, there wouldn't be as fast as the previous truck that the slave hunter drove.
However, Fang Xing still underestimated the technological level of this world.
These carriages just look quaint, which does not mean they are behind.
The convoy left Yongdong City and came to an ice-covered environment.
Only the sound of "cracking" sounds were heard, and Fang Xing noticed that it was the sound of the wheels of the carriage locking.
Then, a long plate extends from the bottom of all wheels.
In just a short moment, the carriage turned into a sled.
The horses transformed with prosthetic limbs were not affected in this icy and snowy environment, but also showed an amazing speed.
In this way, the horses pulled the sled and galloped on the snow at an extremely fast speed.
This speed is not only not slower than the previous trucks that transported people, but also far faster.
Fang Xing and Tang Xiaofeng need to run with all their might to avoid falling behind.
The large group of people moved forward at such a speed and finally left the jurisdiction of Yongdong City in just five days.
This speed was two days less than when Fang Xing came.
However, there was an area covered by ice and snow.
The convoy's travel speed was slightly slower.
Yongdong City borders Jiantian City, and after leaving the sphere of influence of the Hall of Eternal Life, it naturally entered the jurisdiction of the Jiantian School.
Fang Xing knew that it was time to fulfill his obligation to guide him.
In this way, Fang Xing and Tang Xiaofeng came to the front of the convoy all the way.
As the leaders of the team, Ou Guangzhi and his sister naturally stayed at the team leader.
Seeing Fang Xing and the others coming, Ou Xiaohui still said nothing.
Ou Guangzhi said to Fang Xing with a smile on his face:
"Haha, we were still talking about it just now. Fellow Daoist Fang has a deep understanding of Tiancheng here.
I didn’t want to, as I spoke, fellow Taoist himself arrived.”
As the old saying goes, treat it with courtesy and return it to it.
If others are polite to themselves, Fang Xing will naturally respond.
Faced with Ou Guangzhi's flattery, Fang Xing also quickly made a few polite words to the other party.
As for Ou Xiaohui, Fang Xing only thought that the other party did not exist.
Afterwards, Fang Xing performed his duties as a guide and began to introduce the surrounding environment to Ou Guangzhi.
Fang Xing spent three years outside the Jiantian City, so he naturally had a deep understanding of the surrounding area.
When it comes to familiarity with the Gobi Desert outside the Jiantian City, even Tang Xiaofeng, the local native of Jiantian City, was far inferior to Fang Xing.
After all, the living environment is different, and what Tang Xiaofeng is most familiar with is the interior of Jiantian City.
Just as Fang Xing was talking, Ou Xiaohui, who had originally said nothing, suddenly asked coldly:
"What's the relationship between the resistance forces outside the city and the Tianzhan Sect? Are the two sides fighting so powerful?"
Fang Xing was a little surprised when he heard this.
After all, no matter how you look at this kind of problem, no matter how you look at it, it is not something that foreign businessmen will care about.
However, based on the wizard's responsibilities, Fang Xing replied:
"Most of the rebellious forces here in Jiantian City exist in the form of bandits.
I don’t know whether they fight against the Tiantian Sect or not. I only know that the locals have a headache for these bandits.”
Seeing this, Ou Guangzhi smiled and explained:
“Haha, Fellow Daoist Fang, don’t mind.
What my little sister is always paying attention to is strange.”
Fang Xing always felt that the other party was hiding something, especially Ou Xiaohui, who didn't look like a businessman walking around the world.
However, Fang Xing was not interested in exploring these things.
Fang Xing is most concerned about being your own guide and safely reaching the Tiantian City.
Thinking of this, Fang Xing smiled at Ou Guangzhi indifferently.
However, at this moment.
A loud "boom" sound came, which was the sound that only came when the shell exploded.
Fang Xing was too familiar with this explosion sound and didn't need to check it out, so he knew that this was an attack by bandits.
On the other hand, the Ou Guangzhi and his sister reacted very quickly.
They knew that this was an attack and quickly ordered the convoy to stop.
Fortunately, the horses used in the carriage have been mechanically modified.
Even in the face of such a huge noise, the horses remain calm in the face of danger and are not greatly affected.
If it were an ordinary horse, it would have been a mess at this time.
After the carriage stopped, a layer of translucent shield opened directly, protecting the vehicle.
There are a total of ten carriages in this convoy, and each car has a monk on it.
In addition to Ou Guangzhi, there are as many as twelve people.
With such a strong protective power, it is not a big mistake for them to only recruit guides and not need guards or anything else.
Since they knew that the other party had so many people, Fang Xing and Tang Xiaofeng simply watched the show.
However, what Fang Xing did not expect was that the first brother and sister Ou Guangzhi rushed out.
The two brothers and sisters rode their horses and ran directly towards the bandits.
Faced with the bandits shooting with guns, Ou Guangzhi took out his sword and kept dancing in front of him.
The long sword in his hand emitted a faint white light, as if it had infinite magnetism.
Any bullet that flew towards him was sucked by the long sword in his hand.
On the other side, Ou Xiaohui took out a long bow, and she would shoot multiple arrows every time she put a bow.
Ou Xiaohui himself didn't even aim, and the arrows seemed to have eyes, and no one shot was shot in the air.
One of the brothers and sisters attracted firepower and the other shot and killed the enemy, and they cooperated very well.
However, the good times did not last long, and the bandits realized the difficulty of these two people.
They directly pointed the muzzle at the siblings and fired huge shells.
Facing the shell falling towards the two of them quickly, Tang Xiaofeng, who was beside him, couldn't help but clench his fists and sweated for the brother and sister.
To be continued...
