Chapter 19 Broken Temple!
Starting from the next day, Zhou Yan stopped traveling by himself. When the white color of fish belly just appeared in the east, he went on the road with his second brother, letting him carry him on his back. He was still practicing hard in the world of Leylin.
Only when he encounters ditches, ravines, jackals, tigers, leopards, snakes, insects, rats, and ants, will he be woken up by his second brother. After solving the difficulty, he will continue to sleep on his back.
When it got dark, the two stopped.
Only then did Zhou Yan wake up completely and practiced with Zhou Xian for an hour.
After beating the opponent until he was about to die several times, he released the healing spell, ate a lot of meat, and then dived into Leylin's world, leaving his second brother Zhou Xian to continue his hard training alone.
that's all.
one day.
Two days.
Three days.
Zhou Xian carries Zhou Yan on his back every day. With the help of the levitation technique, he is not afraid of the ravines and bumps, and ignores the abyss and cliffs. In this way, he can cover about fifty miles in a day.
This is not a distance, but a straight line on the map.
Not subject to path restrictions.
Not blocked by mountains.
Heading north at this speed, fifty miles a day is comparable to walking two to three hundred miles or more on the official road.
It's definitely not slow.
On the fourth day, the two of them were crossing the official road and happened to come across a post station.
The Nanjing Imperial Court was originally based further north, in today's Dashu territory. At that time, the central government of Jingguo did not have strong control over the thirteen states in southern Xinjiang, which are now the seventeen states in Nanjing. Strictly speaking, the Nanjing Imperial Court was here
They can be regarded as outsiders. The people who moved to southern Xinjiang with them are also called Northerners and Hakka by the local natives, and they have always been rejected and even hated.
In order to strengthen its rule, the Nanjing court redivided states and counties in the more than 20 years after moving south, and continued to build roads and bridges in order to divide the indigenous forces in southern Xinjiang and strengthen the central and state governments.
Links between counties and strengthen centralization of power.
For example, during the years when Zhou Yan and his four brothers were kidnapped to Nanjing, they spent most of their time building roads and building roads.
This road is the official road.
Matching the official road is the inn.
On the official road of Nanjing, pavilions were set up every ten miles, with pavilions having long lengths; post stations were set up at sixty miles, and there were postmen at the post offices.
In this way, we can communicate with the whole country.
Zhou Yan went to the inn to inquire, and finally found out that they had already left the boundary of Xunzhou, and this was Qujiang County in the south of Xingzhou.
"Xunzhou Wutong Mountain is within the territory of Yilun County."
"If you take the official road, you have to travel from Yilun, Xunzhou to Qujiang, Xingzhou, which takes about six or seven days."
"We are not slow."
Zhou Yan was quite satisfied with their speed.
It is of course great to travel over mountains and ridges, avoid official roads, avoid trouble, and be much faster than taking official roads normally.
After understanding their current location, Zhou Yan and his second brother quickly jumped out of the official road and continued to climb over the mountains and ridges heading straight north.
Except for a few villages here and there, there are basically no human traces in the mountains.
Zhou Yan took the various wild animals he had hunted in the mountains, as well as the skins processed by his second brother, and exchanged them with the villagers for clothes, food, bacon, and salt, and sealed them with the space created after burning the corpses.
Keep the technique sealed and carry it with you, so you don't have to worry about food and clothing along the way.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the ninth day of escaping from Mantuo Villa.
This day.
In the dense forest, Zhou Xian was walking in the forest with his fourth brother on his back. His steps were steady now, and even carrying Zhou Yan, who had gained weight slightly in recent days, was not difficult.
It is clear.
The death-like martial arts training every night these days has been very effective.
Zhou Xian, who seemed a bit weak at first, is rapidly getting stronger and his qi and blood are gradually becoming stronger due to hard work, a large amount of meat every day and the grains exchanged with the mountain people.
Greater strength and greater endurance.
As a result, it is easier to travel every day, and the speed is also greatly improved compared to the previous days.
It's almost evening.
Zhou Xian followed his usual routine and prepared to find a place to stay for the night.
He carried Zhou Yan on his back and continued to move forward, looking around.
Suddenly, Zhou Xian's face lit up with joy. He saw a ruined temple on the hillside outside the forest in front of him.
"This is good."
Zhou Xian's pace immediately quickened a little. When he was still a little far away from the ruined temple, he woke Zhou Yan up and said, "Bring out a few pieces of meat and two bags of rice. We'll spend the night there tonight."
Zhou Xian pointed to Zhou Yan the ruined temple ahead.
Because he didn't know if there was anyone else in the temple, he woke up Zhou Yan first and asked him to take out the meat and rice sealed by the sealing technique.
As soon as Zhou Yan woke up, he immediately threw a healing spell on him and the second brother, and then went to listen to what the second brother said.
Knowing that he was not in danger and seeing no one around, he used the sealing technique to take out part of the rabbit meat and rice.
He had learned the sealing technique as a last resort in order to destroy corpses and eliminate traces.
Eighty-nine days passed, and the bodies of Qian Dayong and others had been completely burned by Zhou Yan, leaving no bones or residue left.
The free storage technique has been promoted to the sixth level by Zhou Yan, which can seal heavy objects weighing 2,500 kilograms.
Zhou Yan and his second brother didn't have much treasure, so he used most of it to store grains, meat and a lot of cold boiled water.
The total added up to two thousand kilograms, enough for Zhou Yan and Zhou Xian to survive in the desert without food or water for a year.
Even if you are trapped, you don’t have to worry about not being able to eat or drink water for a short period of time.
After taking out two kilograms of rabbit meat and two kilograms of rice, Zhou Yan returned to his second brother's back and returned to Leylin's world without any delay.
The time difference between the two sides is four hundred times.
In reality, if he takes two steps, Leylin's world will pass in several minutes. If he takes seven or eight steps, half an hour will pass.
I really can't afford to delay.
“I can sleep so well!”
Zhou Xian carried rice and meat in one hand and supported Zhou Yan on his back with the other, and walked towards the ruined temple.
…
This man spoke with a southern Xinjiang accent. Zhou Xian listened attentively.
He thought for a while and listened carefully to two more sentences——
"run?"
"Are you still running?"
"Smelly bitch! Why are you pretending to be noble?
…
Nanjing and Dashu originally belonged to the same country and had the same language and writing. However, due to different regions, there were inevitable differences. The person in the ruined temple spoke with a southern Xinjiang accent, which was a bit difficult to understand. Zhou Yan listened carefully to a few words and frowned.
He also frowned: "Go in and see what's going on."
He first entered Leilin's world and took a bottle of nutritional potion, then came out and walked to the ruined temple with Zhou Xian.
I don’t know what kind of gods this ruined temple is enshrined in. It can be seen that it has been in disrepair for a long time and is open to wind from all sides.
Zhou Yan approached and relied on the passive effect of 'teleportation' to sense that the strength of this big man's energy and blood was much stronger than that of Li and Zhou, the two stewards of Mantuo Villa. It was about the same as the junior berserkers in Leylin's world.
.
"Bone Tempering Realm Warrior."
Zhou Yan roughly knew this person's level.
