Beiyin Great Sage

"What...what happened?"

Seeing the person coming, Hong Shaoxiong's face turned pale and there was fear in his eyes.

These people are the patrols arranged by the Warren family to manage the team. The leader is named Taylor, who is responsible for maintaining order in the team.

As Stu Warren said, the Warren family has very strict rules.

The punishment is also severe.

He was often beaten with a stick, and the pain of broken bones was also common.

In the past few days, those thorns in the team have been punished a lot.

However, although Hong Shaoxiong is more active due to his young age, he is very timid and dare not speak loudly, so he is also targeted by them.

"how?"

Taylor frowned:

"You made a lot of noise during the break. Don't you think you disturbed others' rest?"

"But..." Hong Shaoxiong argued in a low voice:

"I didn't use a loud voice. The wind is so loud here and my voice is not loud enough. How could I disturb others?"

"Huh?" Taylor opened his eyes:

"How dare you quibble!"

"I'm telling you, no matter how strong the wind is, some people don't mind the noise, but when someone takes a breath, it's still noise in other people's ears!"

"I said you were noisy, and you were noisy!"

As he spoke, he shook his arm and pulled out the thorns from his palm.

Vitex is a special product on the barren hills. Some of them are like bamboos covered with barbs. They are as thin as a finger and are extremely tough. If they are struck on the human body, they will cause unbearable pain.

The barbs will tear off the flesh.

"Snapped!"

Zhou Jia waved his arm lightly, and the thorn branches flew away.

"Not really."

He smiled lightly and handed over his hand:

"Knight Taylor, we are just whispering a few words and don't dare to disturb others. If you mind, we will pay attention next time."

"..."

Taylor's face was gloomy, and his eyes gradually became cold:

"how?"

"Mr. Zhou is dissatisfied with the management of our Warren family? Or do you think you have the ability to go to Hongze Territory alone?"

"I've already given you face and I didn't cause you any trouble, so don't give me face and be shameless!"

"Crash..."

All around, sights came one after another.

There were people from the Warren family, as well as Luo Ping and others, with different eyes. Some were gloating about the misfortune, while others were shaking their heads to signal not to be impulsive.

The smile froze on Zhou Jia's face.

"no problem, no problem."

Hong Shaoxiong grabbed Zhou Jia, stood up quickly, bent down and saluted Taylor and others:

"It's my fault, it's my fault. I accidentally spoke too loudly just now and disturbed others. I'll just punish you."

"snort!"

Taylor hummed, glanced at Zhou Jia, and hit the thorn with a fierce wave of his hand.

"Snapped!"

It was like a soft whip was slapped on the forehead. Hong Shaoxiong was stunned and staggered back two steps. He took a moment to recover.

Then he covered his head and fell to his knees, groaning softly and trembling continuously.

A streak of blood appeared on the top of his head. A strip of long hair and scalp were scraped off by barbs, and the skin underneath was torn and bloody.

"Walk!"

After waving his hands, Taylor and others walked away.

…………

"Master."

In the middle of the camp, Taylor bowed and said:

"According to your instructions, I have picked a few thorns in the past few days and suppressed the arrogance of others. The road ahead will be much easier."

"Why choose Zhou Jia?" Terry Warren held a personal sword in his hand, his eyes were solemn, and the secrets of the temple were running smoothly in his body.

The power of the seventh-grade pinnacle turned into a tangible holy light, covering the surroundings.

Suppressing Long Zhongyue's forces was the proper intention and was part of the plan.

Teach the thorny head a lesson first and establish authority.

Then select a few of the powerful people to perform surgery to shock people's hearts.

in this way.

It is convenient to control the team and make others obey orders. However, there is obviously a better candidate, so why choose Zhou Jia, who has always been honest.

Choosing him was not in line with Terry Warren's ideas.

"this……"

Although the young master's voice was calm and he seemed to be asking casually, Taylor's body trembled slightly and he did not dare to hide anything, and said honestly:

"The villain has inquired about it. Although Zhou Jia is at the seventh level, his foundation is shallow. He has only been practicing for a few years. His strength depends entirely on the treasured armor on his body."

"Without the treasure armor, you may not be that strong."

"and……"

After a pause, he continued:

"The person surnamed Zhou is carrying such a big package. There must be a lot of good things in it. Besides, it would be too much of a waste of precious armor on him."

"If it's the young master, we'll be equivalent to having an extra ninth grade one."

"Um."

Terry Warren nodded, his expression unchanged, and he didn't know whether to accept the other party's words or not, he just said lightly:

"We have just started on the road now, so don't get into trouble. As for the treasure armor... external objects cannot be relied upon, especially on this kind of road."

"That kind of thing will break."

"Yes." Taylor lowered his head and bowed in response.

"Woo..."

There is no light from the sun and the moon, and the sky is filled with wind and sand.

The crowd leaned forward and trudged forward against the strong wind.

"Watch the direction!"

"Don't get separated. Once you get lost in the wind and sand, it will be difficult to come back. Everyone should try their best to move closer to those around them."

"Hurry up, just get out of this sandy area!"

There were loud roars, barely visible in the deafening howling wind.

Zhou Jia's feet were on the ground. His crocodile armor weighed three hundred kilograms, his double-edged ax weighed more than one hundred kilograms, and his body was heavily tempered.

It may look small, but it can actually overwhelm a yak.

Even in such a strong wind, he could still walk steadily, and even had enough energy to pull the people around him and scan the surroundings.

I do not know how long it has been.

The wind and sand dispersed.

After several days of trekking, patches of greenery finally began to appear before everyone’s eyes.

"Twenty-seven people are missing."

After counting the number of people, Paul's eyes showed compassion, he lowered his head and recited a few prayers silently, then trotted to report to Ms. Becky.

In a place like this, once contact with the main force is lost, what awaits is undoubtedly deep despair.

"This guy is a good old man." Xu Tan looked at Paul's back, shook the sand off his body, and shook his head with a smile:

"It's rare."

Zhou Jia nodded.

Paul is a believer in the God of Light. Unlike Ms. Becky, who is flexible in her beliefs, he seems to be really strict with the teachings of the God of Light.

Be kind, keep your word, don’t do evil, don’t kill indiscriminately, protect the weak...

At first, everyone thought he was just showing off, but they never thought it was really the case.

There is no God of Light in the Ruins Realm. No matter how much you believe in the gods and abide by the religious rules, you will not be able to return to the so-called God's Realm after death.

All I can say is that people are indeed different.

"It's a miracle that a person like him can live for such a long time." Hong Shaoxiong muttered in a low voice and subconsciously looked around.

Since being punished by Taylor, he has become more timid and even a little too sensitive.

"Everyone."

After a short rest, Terry Warren stood up and spoke:

"We will pass by a forest ahead, and there is a hummingbird that can send out venomous stings. This thing is very sensitive to sound, so be sure not to make a sound."

"Wait a minute, our Warren family will go ahead to explore the road. You guys will follow behind. Be careful. No one will care if something happens."

"yes!"

"OK!"

"We will pay attention."

Echoes sounded one after another.

"Unexpected." Hong Shaoxiong whispered:

"The Warren family is quite loyal. If danger comes, then if we follow them, our chances of survival will be great."

Hearing this, Xu Tan shook his head slightly with disdain in his eyes.

Zhou Jia looked thoughtful and said:

"Let's move as far forward as possible and keep up with the Warren family."

"Ah?" Hong Shaoxiong was stunned, then nodded without asking any more questions:

"OK."

After a while, the team set off.

…………

The bronze bark exudes hardness, and the tree body full of grooves seems to hide something; the fiery red leaves are connected into one piece, rolling in the wind, like a sea of ​​fire.

"Crash..."

The sound of wind blowing leaves echoed in my ears.

Everyone was walking in the forest, stepping on dead branches and leaves, trying their best to reduce their voices, crouching one by one, and moving forward cautiously.

"Pfft!"

Zhou Jia raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced back subconsciously.

Fallen leaves accumulate in the forest all year round and inevitably decay, so the ground that looks flat is most likely a pile of silt, which is weak and weak.

No matter how careful you are, you will inevitably make mistakes.

Um?

Not far away, the family of three with their children also rushed ahead.

Not only the three of them, but also many people who were following behind are now quietly approaching the Warren family's team, with wary eyes.

Behind, there were sparse figures scattered in all directions.

They looked at the Warren family in front of them, walking easily along the footsteps of their predecessors. They seemed safer, but that was only in appearance.

Zhou Jia looked away and his ears suddenly trembled.

A trace of noise appeared nearby.

"Buzz..."

A bird that was about the size of a thumb and looked a bit like a bee flew out of the leaves, vibrating its wings and pounced on the person below.

Hummingbird?

The man's body was stiff, his forehead was sweating, and he did not dare to move at all.

"Buzz..."

The hummingbird circled around him a few times and seemed to find nothing wrong. It turned around and was about to leave, but its buttocks suddenly shook and sprayed out black lines.

"ah!"

The black thread penetrated the clothes and submerged into the flesh, and the man suddenly screamed, and a black energy emerged from the wound, spreading towards the whole body at an alarming speed.

"ah……"

The screams became more miserable.

That needle was obviously highly poisonous. A fourth-grade person was only slightly contaminated, and in the blink of an eye he was struggling to breathe.

"Let's go!"

Zhou Jia's expression changed, and the speed of his feet suddenly increased.

The Warren family in front was even more prepared, speeding up and running without making a sound.

In the forest.

Countless "buzzing" and trembling sounds came, and hummingbirds flew out from the bark, branches, and leaves of the trees, forming a vast ocean, following the sound.

many!

Too much!

They are so densely packed that it’s hard to count even a hundred thousand or a million.

"Uh-huh!"

"Buzz..."

The poisonous stinger tail needles were like a torrential rain, forming a continuous sheet and shooting towards the crowd.

"ah!"

"Help!"

"Run away, run away!"

Zhou Jia's face was gloomy, and he waved his arms. The double shield of the Perfect Realm tightly wrapped around him, and countless black lines shot back at a faster speed.

Xu Tan held two swords in his hands, danced with numerous sword shadows, and dashed through the gaps in the trees.

Hong Shaoxiong was quick-witted. He flipped his palm and struck the void, causing nearby energy to roar and the stingers to fly aside.

"Pfft..."

Hummingbird is not very strong, and although its tail needle is fast, it is not very powerful. Under the attack of everyone, it fell from the air in pieces.

but.

There are too many of them!

Moreover, tail needles are highly poisonous. Zhou Jia saw with his own eyes that a sixth-grade master was accidentally pierced in the back by a tail needle.

In the blink of an eye, he fell to the ground in despair.

It is so poisonous that even ninth- and tenth-grade people would not dare to touch it easily.

"Buzz..."

The flock of birds trembled violently, causing a violent wind to rise in an instant. Countless tail needles flickered among them, chasing various sounds, and individual figures screamed and fell to the ground.

The distance to break out of the dense forest seemed to be quite a long distance.

"scold!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the direction of the Warren family, and then a flash of red light shot out, heading straight for the crowd behind them.

"boom!"

A violent roar, accompanied by blazing flames, unfolded from behind.

"Buzz..."

The hummingbirds were trembling. It seemed that they could only rely on sound to see the way. They would go where the noise was loudest. This time, they pounced on the flames, and the interception in front was eliminated.

"Let's go!"

With a sharp shout, everyone rushed forward crazily.

Hong Shaoxiong ran wildly and turned back, his eyes filled with fear.

He originally planned to follow behind, but now look...

The people at the back were there to attract the attention of the hummingbirds and prepare the people in front to escape. The Warren family had no intention of taking them with them to escape!

"Why are you so stunned?"

Zhou Jia hummed, his shield shook slightly, and he swept away a poisonous needle and shouted towards Hong Shaoxiong:

"Let's go!"
