"Husband, do you really want to do this?" Mrs. Zuo said worriedly.

"Mr. Li has been in my Zuo family for decades, and I can't bear it, but I don't have much time!" The head of the Zuo family looked very helpless.

"But if an accident happens, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

"It is precisely because this plan is risky that the greater the profit!" said the head of the Zuo family, "I originally planned to let him marry into the family, but Yin Ling's child disagreed!"

"If you dare to force Yin Ling to sacrifice for the family, or use her as a tool for the family's strength, I will fight you to the death!" Mrs. Zuo looked like a lioness protecting her cubs.

"I know, so I haven't let her get engaged for so many years!" The head of the Zuo family explained hurriedly.

"Hmph! Let me tell you, Yin Ling has the right to choose her other half, do you know?" Mrs. Zuo said with a slight angrily.

"I know," said the head of the Zuo family with a smile.

"It's just a hard time for Qin Lan's child!" Although Mrs. Zuo did not agree with this plan, for the sake of the family and daughter, she could only watch the implementation of this plan. "I don't know if he can hold on!"

"He can only hold on. Whether the Zuo family collapsed in this storm or continued to survive, he would become the shadow of Yin Ling!" The head of the Zuo family looked very serious.

"Are you sure he can transform into mortality?"

"Uncertain, but foundation building is a foregone conclusion, and with his current situation, it is also an extremely powerful type of foundation building!"

...

Yan Zhi pushed Qin Lan who was still sleeping beside him, "Qin Lan, it's time to get up, we're going to rush forward!"

Qin Lan opened her eyes, stretched her waist, and said tiredly: "It's so sleepy!"

"Hurry up!" Yan Zhi urged.

"Where are we going? There is not even a horse!" Qin Lan looked around and complained.

"Brother! Can you stop complaining?" Yan Zhi begged.

"Oh" Qin Lan glanced at Yan Zhi with a squinted look.

Yan Zhi looked unhappy and said, "Let's run south. If we encounter a village or something, we should be able to find a horse."

"Then let's go!"

Yan Zhi carried the leftover half bag of buns and set out south, with Qin Lan following closely behind.

After about half an hour, Qin Lan and Yan Zhi stopped because the river was tens of meters wide across the river, and the water was very clean, but the center was blue and green, as if interpreting its depth.

Qin Lan looked at Yan Zhi, and Yan Zhi also looked at Qin Lan, and said, "What should I do!"

Yan Zhi thought for a while and suggested: "Why follow this river! This river should flow to the sea and sky, and many villages and towns are near the river, so we can also find horses!"

Qin Lan looked at the river ahead and then looked downstream of the river. Although the direction was different from theirs, what Yan Zhi said made sense, at least they were all in the south, so he nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Qin Lan seemed to hear the subtle sound of horse hooves. Qin Lan looked at Yan Zhi, and Yan Zhi's face turned pale, and he obviously heard it too.

"It's not them!" Qin Lan's voice trembled a little.

"**口天天天天天," Yan Zhi swallowed and said, "If we were still walking along the river now, we would definitely be caught back, so we could only force the river to cross. By the way, can you swim?"

"meeting"

"Then hurry up, I must have seen us when I heard this!"

The two looked at each other and then jumped into the river. Although the river seemed to be in a hurry, they realized that the distance they were washed away was much further than the distance they swam.

Originally, the two people chasing him couldn't see clearly that the target was their target, but after seeing the other person's face facing him once, he jumped into the river and confirmed that the two people were Qin Lan and Yan Zhi. So he ignited the signal flare.

The two people in the river heard a loud noise, their faces turned pale a little longer, and they swam toward the other side with even more force.

Because they swam too seriously, they didn't notice that a long shadow swam towards them in the river.

When he swam to the center, Yan Zhi looked back and saw the two pursuers chasing him hard. He was so scared that he quickly turned around. When he turned around, he saw a black shadow swimming towards them in the upper reaches of the river, shouting: "Qin Lan, swim quickly, there is something in the river!" After that, he swam hard to swim to the other side.

Qin Lan cried out, not wasting her strength on complaining, but swam with all her strength.

Yan Zhiyou was almost on the other side, but the black shadow was already very close to him. He gritted his teeth and recited a mantra. Then his eyes turned blue. The direction of the black shadow was pushed out of thin air. The route he pushed was frozen and the black shadow stopped. The originally calm river water became turbid under the twist of the giant beast.

Qin Lan suddenly felt a little cold and glanced at Yan Zhi's direction. He knew that Yan Zhi released his trick and trapped what he said. But when he saw Yan Zhi motionless, he shouted: "Yan Zhi, run away after using his ultimate move! Why are you standing there!"

Yan Zhi suddenly realized and swam to the other side, but the black shadow was trapped in its original place. When Yan Zhi was only more than one meter away from reaching the other side, the black shadow escaped and swam towards Yan Zhi at full speed.

The moment Yan Zhi got ashore, a black shadow jumped out of the water. It turned out to be a big snake with a head the size of a lantern. The big snake opened its bloody mouth and bit it at Yan Zhi, but it pounced in vain. Qin Lan, who had already got ashore, pulled Yan Zhi away. The big snake did not give up after being lost, bit Yan Zhi again. Yan Zhi hurriedly reacted, and the big snake was lost in vain again.

After Yan Zhi escaped from danger twice, he distanced himself from the Big Snake. The Big Snake seemed to know that the land was its shortcomings, so he turned his head and entered the river reluctantly.

Yan Zhi felt like he was alive in a disaster, and his cold sweat was flowing down, his eyes were filled with fear.

"How are you? You're okay!" Qin Lan patted Yan Zhi's back.

"It's okay, thank you!" Yan Zhi's expression slowed down a lot.

"It's fine," Qin Lan was also a little afraid that Yan Zhi would be frightened.

Yan Zhi looked at Qin Lan and asked with a breath: "Why don't you look nervous at all?"

"I'm afraid too! But I have experience. I told you that you can't be afraid at this time. You have to force yourself to calm yourself down," Qin Lan answered truthfully.

"Forget it, I won't ask anymore. Let's go quickly. This big snake should be able to delay us for a while," Yan Zhi did not ask any further. He knew that everyone had their own secrets, just as Qin Lan did not ask him what happened just now.

"Can you still run? Your legs are not scared!" Qin Lan deliberately joked with Yan Zhi just to let him relax.

"It must be faster than you!"

The two ran to the south, but because Yan Zhigang was frightened, they ran a little slower than Qin Lan, but not much worse.

On the other side of the river, all eighteen people from the Yan family and sixteen people from the Zuo family gathered together.

"Are you sure it's them?" Shi Xuan asked.

"I'm sure, but there is a one-horned snake in the river. Just now, Young Master Yan Zhi was almost eaten by this beast!"

Miao Chang said angrily: "A bold beast, even an earthworm dares to be presumptuous!"

"Don't worry, since they have crossed the river, they will be safe for the time being," Shi Xuan comforted.

Miao Chang's anger was not gone and he snorted.

Shi Xuan glanced at Miao Chang and said, "Since that's the case, we will kill this beast first and then chase it. Although it's a waste of time, they only practice Qi. Even if there is no horse, we can catch up!"

"Then let's fight quickly!" Miao Chang said, "Together, kill this beast!"

"Okay!" Shi Xuan agreed, "Two people went down as bait, and the others took action together when the beast appeared. Do you understand?"

"Understand" the subordinates dare not say no.

Then the two subordinates jumped into the river and swam to the center. The snake was indeed fooled. It had just been humiliated and was full of anger. Now that it saw someone crossing the river, it swam towards the two with a fierce look. The people on the shore had already tightened their weapons and waited for the beast to show its head.

The big snake in the river opened its mouth and bit one of them, but was attacked by the other. They were originally used as bait, so how could they not be prepared?

When the people on the shore saw the fight, they threw the weapons in their hands towards the big snake. The big snake was attacked by another person and became even more angry and bit the person. However, a sharp pain suddenly came from his body and was stabbed by the weapon he had just thrown. The body like a bucket was filled with various weapons, and the two people in the river took the opportunity to attack the big snake's head.

Everyone crossed the river and lifted the snake's body up. The snake's body was filled with thirty-two weapons. Except for the two people in the river who were not inserted into it, everything else was there.

"A mere second-level earthworm dares to attack the young master, but he doesn't know how to live or die!" Miao Chang cursed at the big snake.

"Stop talking, take away the weapon and throw this beast away!" Shi Xuan said.

The subordinates were puzzled. They were second-level monsters at least!

"Hmph, I know what you think!" Shi Xuan said, "First, we are here to find people, not hunting. If the head of the family misunderstood, we can't afford to take care of it; second, this is just a second-level demon snake. If there is unnecessary barriers caused by uneven distribution of spoils, it is not worth it, so it's better to throw it away!"

Miao Chang smiled and said, "Brother Shi is right. If our friendship is broken because of this beast, it will be really not worth it. It's better to throw it away!"

Seeing that the two bosses said they wanted to throw them away, they didn't dare to talk too much, so they could only throw the snake's body into the river, but except Shi Xuan and Miao Chang, everyone else felt pain.

"Okay, they shouldn't run far. If they chase after them now, they should be able to catch up soon!" Miao Chang said in the direction where Qin Lan and Yan Zhi ran away.

...

Qin Lan and Yan Zhi ran for a long time, but suddenly they stopped and smiled bitterly when they heard a sound of stopping. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They thought that the big snake could help them fight for at least half an hour, but they didn't expect it to be solved so quickly. They didn't think that practicing Qi can win the foundation building, nor did they dare to fight with it. After all, only fools would think that two practicing Qi can win more than 30 foundation building, so they gave up resisting and waited for their arrival.

Qin Lan and Yan Zhi were surrounded.

Yan Zhi looked at Miao Chang and begged, "Uncle Miao, let me go! I'll want to go out for a walk and will go back soon."

"Young master, we don't want to do this either, but the head of the family said that if we can't see you before dark, our 18 brothers will be unable to save their lives!" Miao Chang smiled bitterly.

"No, my father is not the kind of bloodthirsty person!" Yan Zhi said.

"Young master, you don't understand," Miao Chang said.

"So, you really can't let us go?"

"Yes!" Miao Chang sighed.

Yan Zhi looked at the Zuo family and said, "I have never seen you before. I think it should be the Zuo family, that's the head?" Yan Zhi knew that he must go back, but he was the young master. After he returned home, he was locked in a small dark room at most. Qin Lan was different. He was just a book boy.

"Hello, Young Master Yan," Shi Xuan saluted Yan Zhi.

"When I get punished, I will go and play with Qin Lan. Is it OK?" Yan Zhi asked.

Except for Qin Lan, everyone present knew that this was a coercion, which means that Qin Lan must be kept alive.

Shi Xuan frowned, thought for a long time, and said, "Okay, but Qin Lan may have been punished longer than Young Master Yan!"

"It's okay, I can afford to wait!" Yan Zhi smiled.

"You go back and say hello to the head of the Zuo family," Yan Zhi said.

Shi Xuan was shocked again. He wanted to directly threaten the head of the family and let Qin Lan get some punishment. He hurriedly said: "It must, it must."

"Young Master, it's time for us to go back!" Miao Chang was afraid that he would stay any longer, and his young master was actually threatening the Zuo family.

"When I finish talking to Qin Lan," Yan Zhi said nothing and ignored him, but turned to Qin Lan who had not spoken. "I'm sorry, I'm selfish. I just want to find a playmate and run away from home with me, but it ended up hurting you. I'm sorry!"

"It's okay, I have a responsibility, too. Isn't it just a punishment when I go back? It's nothing, just get through it," Qin Lan said very easily.

"I'm sorry, brother" Yan Zhi hugged Qin Lan.

The two hugged each other, Yan Zhi cherished this friend very much. This was the closest friend he had found. Everyone else stayed away because he was the young master and young master of the Yan family. He could feel that Qin Lan didn't care about these things. Qin Lan was also very excited. He was very happy to know this friend. This friend could understand his deepest wishes and was the first person to understand his heart. Although the two had known each other for a short time, they both regarded each other as confidants.
