The mountains in the distance are rolling, and even under the blazing sun, the top of the mountain is still shrouded in mist.
Lu Yuan stood silently on the spot, watching the cavalry disappear into the green horizon, and then looked back.
"Bah! What the hell!" Huo Yang couldn't help but cursed.
"Just now, I almost thought there was going to be a fight!" Lou Junyuan sighed, seeming a little frightened.
"But why does that guy seem to be targeting us? We didn't offend him, did we?"
"Perhaps, he is not targeting you, but me." Lu Yuan said suddenly.
Everyone cast their surprised eyes on him.
"Brother Lu, did you have any issues with him?" Huo Yang asked in surprise.
"No, he should just stand up for others, and the real owner is hiding behind." Lu Yuan then explained his relationship with Xu Lou, and everyone understood.
"Damn it, these bastards, how long have they been? They are still thinking about personal grudges! When the battle is over, I will kill him!" Zang Li couldn't help but curse.
"I think he just wants to intimidate me and show his authority. If he really wants to start a war, he still wouldn't dare." Lu Yuan said.
"Although the opponent is a second lieutenant, he, a dandy, cannot control this army independently. If he wants to start a war, it depends on the one just now."
Lu Yuan didn't speak just now, he was just observing the situation.
He noticed that the middle-aged man might be the real person in charge.
The situation just now seemed dangerous and imminent, but it was still under the opponent's control.
"Damn it, but now, what should we do?" Huo Yang suddenly asked.
And his words also reminded everyone.
The other party is a member of the First Legion, and he still has a certain status in the legion. Now that the two sides are at odds, there is no guarantee that the other party will not stumble again.
It’s hard to say what will happen then!
"Everyone, there is a gap between them and me, so they will look for opportunities to stumble. If you go to Yang Valley on your own, you should not be treated differently by them." Lu Yuan said seriously.
"Brother Lu! What are you talking about!" Huo Yang suddenly frowned.
"That's right! Brother Lu, if you hadn't been here along the way, how could we have gotten here!"
"That is, if we abandon you now and go find the First Legion ourselves, who will we be!"
"Let's go together!"
The group of people spoke one after another, quite a bit excited.
Lu Yuan's eyes swept across the crowd, and when he saw the excited faces, he felt a little touched in his heart.
Although they have not known each other for a long time, they have gone through many hardships and obstacles along the way, and they can be regarded as living and dying together.
The road ahead will be more difficult, and it will obviously be better if someone helps.
Lu Yuan took a deep breath, "I am here to thank everyone for their trust. If you are willing to go with me, then I will do my best to lead everyone to victory!"
"Hahaha, okay!"
"From now on, I will follow Brother Lu!"
"Follow Brother Lu and kill all those aliens!"
The crowd's voices carried away with the wind.
........
Since we decided not to go to the Yang River Valley to join the First Army, we naturally followed the previous plan and took the Mantis River Trail to the west of the Fengxi Plain, and then looked for opportunities to support the front line.
The Mantis River flows through the Jiyang Mountains and connects the east and west. The river flows rapidly, is surrounded by high mountains, the river is deep, and the terrain is dangerous.
Fengxubao once wanted to open a canal here, but because of the dangerous terrain and many gaps, it later abandoned this plan.
When Lu Yuan and his party entered Mantis River, it was already dark.
The high mountains and ridges obscure the moonlight, and through the dense branches and leaves, the bright starry sky can be vaguely seen.
It was difficult to hear the chirping of birds and animals around because the rushing water covered up all sounds.
"Why don't we rest here for the night." Lu Yuan suggested.
"Brother Lu, the terrain here is difficult and the troops cannot camp. We should go a little further and find an open space." As a local, Zang Li is quite familiar with the terrain here, so Lu Yuan will naturally not object.
Everyone continued to move forward, the road ahead led into the dense forest, and the sound of running water gradually faded away.
"Isn't it a little too quiet here?" Huo Yang said suddenly.
Indeed, as he said, I had not heard any sounds of birds or animals before, perhaps because of the water flow.
But now that we have gone deep into the dense forest, we still haven't heard any sound.
The deep forest sleeps in darkness, and there is no sound.
It seems like they are the only ones left in the world.
"Before, there were two monster lairs here, the Slittooth Tiger and the Black-backed Monkey. They attacked each other, and some lords would come to hunt for some materials, but it's really strange that I haven't seen them after walking for so long." Zang Li
said.
When everyone heard this, they all became vigilant.
Obviously, this kind of calmness is not a good thing.
Suddenly, a muffled sound of thunder woke everyone up.
Lu Yuan raised his head and saw a thunder snake swimming in the sky through the gaps between the branches and leaves.
Is something going to change?......
"It seems that just because of the weather change, those monsters should be hiding in their lairs." Huo Yang said with a smile.
"Then let's rush to that place and camp." Lu Yuan said.
Everyone quickened their pace in the hope of setting up camp before the heavy rain came.
But gradually Lu Yuan felt something was wrong.
The further they advanced, the louder the thunder became, as if it was ringing in their ears.
Every time the thunder and lightning in the sky can almost pierce the darkness of the night, the sky and the earth are filled with white light.
It seems that a big storm is brewing.
Finally the trees ahead became clearer, but it seemed darker here.
Some people couldn't help but raise their heads and saw a huge shadow in front of them that almost covered half of the sky.
But if you look closely, you will see that the dark rock wall is covered in mist, and you can vaguely see the weird patterns on it.
But some places seemed to be pitted, with dark green liquid flowing inside, flowing down the rock walls, exuding an extremely pungent smell.
"Zang Li, where is the open space you mentioned? We have been walking for so long, so we should have arrived." Someone looked at the sky and said with some worry.
"No, it should be right here." Zang Li also looked at the map and frowned.
Lu Yuan stared at the rock wall dozens of meters high in front of him and felt something was wrong.
The next moment, muffled thunder exploded in their ears.
The white arcs of lightning almost blinded their eyes. Countless arcs rose from the dark rock wall, towards the sky, wandered in the night, and then disappeared.
When the muffled thunder disappeared, Lu Yuan's eyes regained sight.
But in an instant, his pupils shrank, and huge fear filled his heart.
