Seen from a distance, the Baiju River looks like a giant white snake meandering, and the continuous sound is heard continuously.
After resting, Chen Zong got up and headed towards Baiju River.
"Crossing the Baiju River, you will reach Benmayuan, and then you will reach the boundary of Qiyao Martial Academy." Chen Zong quickened his pace a little as he said to himself.
With unhealed internal injuries and aggravated by the battle of life and death, he had to reserve some speed.
On the bank of the Baiju River, there were quite a few people standing in groups of three or four, and they were teams of children from various families.
"Where's Chen Zong?" Wang Shenglei asked after scanning the faces of Chen Zhong and the other four.
Chen Zhong and the others didn't answer because they didn't know what Chen Zong was doing now.
"Could it be that he died in the Black Bee Mountain?" A child of the Wang family smiled and said casually, which made the faces of Chen Chong and the others change drastically.
"Chen Zong really died in Black Bee Mountain?" Wang Shenglei asked.
"I don't know." Chen Zhi said angrily.
Everyone in the Wang family couldn't help being stunned.
"Could it be that Chen Zong was worried about losing the bet, so he was reluctant to part with fifty thousand white jade coins, so he didn't dare to show up." A child of the Wang family said eccentrically.
"You're looking for death." Chen Zhong was furious, and wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Chen Wenze.
"If I lose, I will give you 50,000 white jade coins." A plain voice came to everyone's ears, and Chen Chong and the others turned their heads to look at each other, their faces full of excitement.
"Chen Zong."
"you are still alive."
"I knew you must be alive."
"I am destined." Chen Zong said with a smile.
"You don't look very well." After the excitement calmed down, Chen Zhong looked at Chen Zong's face and said.
"I got hurt a little bit," Chen Zong said.
"Where are the two men in black?" Chen Kaiyue asked.
"I don't know." Chen Zong didn't say that the two of them had died by his sword.
"Huh, Chen Zong, it's good to be alive. My Wang family will win this bet." Wang Shenglei said, Chen Zong looked and found that there were originally six people on Wang Shenglei's side, but now there are only five people left, two of them Still with injuries.
It can be seen that the consequences of entering Black Bee Mountain at night are quite bad.
The water of the Baitu River is very fast, and the waves are rolling. If you want to swim across, you are afraid of encountering monsters. Meeting monsters in the water is more dangerous than meeting monsters on the ground.
A first-level low-grade underwater monster is enough to kill a fifth-level martial artist at the Qi and blood level.
They waited until the Baiju River returned to calm before crossing the river. Everyone was also ready to make a simple raft with wood felled from a small forest not far away.
"Chen Zong, do you know the identities of those two people?" Tang Junluo and Li Zhenshi came over and asked, with a hint of anger in their tone.
Chen Zong shook his head, although he had guesses in his heart, those two people were obviously targeting him, and he should handle it by himself.
Staring at the Baiju River, the river is rushing, as if thousands of troops are rushing to kill.
"Get ready." Chen Zong said suddenly.
"What?" Chen Zhong and the others didn't know why.
"Raise the raft and prepare to cross the river." Chen Zong emphasized again.
"Let's go." Chen Zhong obviously trusted Chen Zong, and immediately grabbed the raft and walked towards the Baiju River. Chen Kaiyue and the three had to follow.
"What are they doing?"
"Isn't it because I want to cross the river?"
"Looking for death."
"It seems that in order to win the bet, I don't want to die."
Wang Shenglei smiled coldly. Last night, in order to win the bet, he ran into Heifeng Mountain at night. As a result, one person died, two were injured, and he was unable to cross the river ahead. Now crossing the river, I secretly said that I was looking for a dead end.
Tang Junluo and Li Zhenshi didn't know why.
"Wait." Walking to the river, Chen Zong said to Chen Zhong, his eyes staring at the rushing river.
"Let go." After a dozen or so breaths, Chen Zong said suddenly, Chen Zhong put the raft into the river, Chen Zong leaped, and landed on the raft first, followed by Chen Zhong, and Chen Kaiyue and the three jumped onto the raft.
The sudden rush of the river made the raft go down the current.
"Chen Zhong and Chen Wenzhe are in charge of the left side, and Chen Kaiyue and Chen Zhi are in charge of the right side." Chen Zong said immediately, and each of them picked up a wooden pulp made from a tree trunk.
The four of Chen Chong were very nervous and nervous, but Chen Zong was the only one who was more relaxed. Under the swift river, the raft kept drifting downwards, and with everyone's efforts, he moved forward little by little.
Chen Zong stared at each river, analyzed the laws in it, and directed every move of Chen Zhong and the others.
"Is this okay?" Everyone on the river bank was dumbfounded.
The four of Chen Zhong cooperated more and more tacitly, and the forward speed of the raft increased slightly, but the Baiju River was hundreds of meters wide, and they only crossed tens of meters.
The impact of the river gradually weakened and became slower a little bit.
"Speed up." Chen Zhong and the others were overjoyed, and immediately waved the wooden paddle to speed up.
"Cross the river!"
"Walk."
"Let's go."
The children of all the families on the river bank saw that the river was slowing down, so they quickly raised the raft and put it into the water.
The river was slow, and with the cooperation of several people, the raft moved forward quickly, as if riding the wind and waves, and rushed to the middle of the river in a short time, far ahead of others.
"Chen Zong, did you already know that the river was going to slow down?" Chen Wenzhe asked while vigorously shaking his oars.
"Feeling." Chen Zong replied casually.
"We are in the lead now, everyone, work harder, keep the advantage, and the bet will be won." Chen Zhong laughed.
Thinking of winning the bet, everyone will get 10,000 white jade coins, and they can't help but get excited, their whole body is full of strength, and the speed of the raft is a little faster.
"Quick, quick!" Wang Shenglei was very anxious. Originally, he arrived at the Baiju River earlier than Chen's party, but he had to stop and wait because of the rush of the river. As a result, he was overtaken, and now he was overtaken, urging him repeatedly.
However, the two were seriously injured, and it was even more difficult to cooperate. Wang Shenglei kept urging, which made the cooperation even worse.
"Don't mess up, cooperate well, we're almost there." Chen Zong said in a calm tone, and the distance to the opposite bank was about 100 meters away.
Suddenly, the water splashed, and a big fish broke out of the water, opened its mouth full of fangs, and bit Chen Zong fiercely. It was indeed a fish monster in the water.
"Death!" Chen Zong reacted quickly, the sword came out of its sheath, and the sword pierced through the air, smashing the water flowers, and chopping on the monster. The sharp blade broke through the tough fish scales and cut into the body. Knocked down into the water, blood filled the air.
Affected by the internal injury, the pain was endless, and Chen Zong's face turned pale.
Other teams were also attacked by monsters one after another, but the monsters in Baituhe were only first-level monsters, and most of them were low-level and middle-level ones. As long as they were careful, there was nothing to worry about.
When they got to the shore, Chen Zong's five people jumped onto the shore one after another, without stopping at all, they ran forward immediately.
"The four of you run first, and I will follow." Chen Zong said, his internal injuries hadn't healed, and he used his sword to slay the monster just now. Now it's uncomfortable, and his speed is limited.
"Are you okay?" Chen Zhong was concerned.
"It's okay, just take a rest, you guys go first." Chen Zong said.
"Okay, you have to keep up as soon as possible." Chen Zhong said, and the other three broke out at full speed and ran forward quickly.
Benmayuan is flat, as if it is endless, the wind blows, the grass waves undulate, it is very magnificent.
Chen Zong kept advancing at an even speed, and not long after, disciples from other families caught up and overtook him.
"Chen Zong, what's wrong with you?" Li Zhenshi ran to the side and asked.
"I suffered some internal injuries last night, so I shouldn't be too quick." Chen Zong replied simply.
"Internal injury..." Li Zhenshi frowned slightly. External injuries can be sprinkled with medicinal powder, and internal injuries can only be taken with medicinal soup. As for internal injuries, pills for internal injuries are rare, because the price is very high.
"I have a recovery pill here, try it." Li Zhenshi took out a gray pill and handed it to Chen Zong. Under the cool breath, the internal injury seemed to be healing little by little.
"Thank you, brother Li." Chen Zong said seriously.
"I'm leaving first, you have to keep up." Li Zhenshi shook his hand and smiled, and left at a faster speed.
"Fushang Pill can heal internal injuries, but my injury is serious, one pill may not be enough." Chen Zong secretly said: "However, it can relieve one or two."
"Chen Zong, it looks like you are dying." The five members of the Wang family chased up and passed by Chen Zong. Wang Shenglei smiled coldly.
"How can we know success or failure until the end." Chen Zong responded calmly.
"The dead duck has a hard mouth." A Wang family child sneered.
"The victory or defeat has long been decided." Wang Shenglei said, passing Chen Zong and gradually drifting away. The injured two had skin injuries, not as big a burden as internal injuries.
In the end, everyone turned into small black dots in front of their eyes, and then disappeared, Chen Zong couldn't help shaking his head.
"It looks like it's very likely that I will lose fifty thousand white jade coins." I thought to myself, feeling a bit bitter in my heart, the fifty thousand white jade coins have not been used yet, and now they are about to become someone else's.
…
From a distance, the mountain peak looks like a single horn, protruding from the ground, and it seems to protrude from the edge of the mountain range.
Longjiao Peak, a peak belonging to Fulong Mountain, is 1,888 meters high and covers an area of more than 1,000 square miles. The mountain is steep and has many strange peaks.
Seeing Longjiao Peak means that Qiyao Martial Arts Academy is not far away.
The children of each family raced, and everyone wanted to reach the Qiyao Wuyuan first before the others.
"Speed up, and if you win the bet, I'll share three thousand white jade coins with each of you." Wang Shenglei said, and the Wang family's children became more motivated when they heard this, and gradually approached the four of the Chen family.
"Work harder, don't let them overtake." Chen Zhong said.
"What's the use, Chen Zong didn't catch up." Chen Zhi's tone was negative. If Chen Zong didn't catch up, even if they arrived first, they would lose. If they didn't get 10,000 white jade coins, they would have no motivation.
"Driving..."
The green grass was flying, the sound of hoofbeats was rapid, and the sound of kicking and kicking could be heard clearly. A brown wild horse instantly passed Wang Shenglei and the others, and then passed Chen Zhong and the others, and galloped towards Qiyao Martial Academy.
"Chen Zong..."
"It's Chen Zong."
"Haha, we're going to win."
The four of Chen Chong seemed to be infused with vitality, and their speed increased a little. On the other hand, Wang Shenglei's side seemed to be drained of strength, and their speed also decreased.
"No, I haven't lost yet." Wang Shenglei roared, the power of Qi and blood exploded, and his speed accelerated. He soon caught up with Chen Zhong and others, and then overtook them, but the other four Wang family children were still behind.
