Chapter 211: A Belated Attack
Xi Bai naturally won't take it lightly, after all, if he is really attacked, and there are first-class masters among them, then only he and Ao Zhan and a few others really have to rely on, and the other members of the arrogant group can only watch, even if it is Shi Fang, it will not be the enemy of the other party's move at that time.
It's just that Xi Bai walked for a morning, not to mention the first-class masters, even ordinary robbers have not encountered one. Xi Bai thought about it and understood that after all, they were on the official road, and ordinary robbers naturally did not have such courage to come here to rob, because whether it was to support or escape, on the official road, there were too many choices for the dart team, and the heroes of the green forest would naturally appear in the green forest.
However, like the people who attacked them as Ao Zhan said, they shouldn't care if they are on the official road or not, just do nothing like this, and always pay attention to the surrounding situation, it is not a long-term thing, not to mention that this is really a waste of time, and it is not possible to be highly tense for such a long time, after a long time, when the attacker really appears, there will be no energy to deal with them.
"Brother Xibai, you don't have to pay attention all the time, just do what you have to do, I've already sent someone to pay attention, you have to recuperate, it's all up to you when the time comes." During the lunch break, Ao Zhan came to Xi Bai's side and said to Xi Bai.
After a morning's experience, Xi Bai also felt that this was not the way, and now when he heard Ao Zhan say this, he nodded and agreed. When he set off again in the afternoon, Xi Bai really no longer paid attention to the situation around him, but entered the cultivation with peace of mind. Anyway, I don't know where those attackers came from, so it's not a way to wait, it's better to cultivate for a while, and it can improve a trace of internal strength.
However, Xi Bai also retained enough vigilance, as long as the arrogant battle next to him called him, he could immediately wake up from his cultivation and devote himself to the battle. It's just that when I arrived at the next post station in the evening, the attacker did not appear.
Xi Bai woke up from his cultivation, looking at the red burning clouds in the sky, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, he looked at Ao Zhan next to him, and saw that the other party's face was not very good, this feeling was like a prisoner before execution, knowing that he would be executed sooner or later, but he didn't know the specific time, which was really depressing.
Xi Bai's heart suddenly moved, and he said to Ao Zhan: "Brother Ao, do you think those who attacked will sneak attack in the middle of the night?" ”
Ao Zhan shook his head silently, and said uncertainly: "If you camp at night, there is naturally this possibility, but in this station, it is not very likely." But it's impossible to say the specifics, after all, they have a purpose, not ordinary robbers. ”
Hearing Ao Zhan's answer, Xi Bai was also silent, this is the price of knowing nothing about the enemy! They are now facing an unknown enemy, and some of their usual experience is completely useless, and it can be said that their eyes are blackened, and this feeling is really painful. But this is also a matter of no way, who let them transport arms in this dart mission, I don't know the danger is high, and the profit is also high! High risk naturally corresponds to high return, if you want the horse to run, but also want the horse not to eat grass, where is such a good thing?
Xi Bai also knew that Ao Zhan was in a bad mood now, and there was not much at the moment, and he didn't know how to comfort the other party, so he patted the other party's shoulder and went to rest.
After returning to the room, Xi Baipan sat on the bed, regardless of whether those attackers would come or not, the cultivation still had to continue. Xi Bai took a deep breath, threw the distracting thoughts in his mind out of his head, and quickly entered a state of cultivation.
In the early morning of the next day, after everyone gathered, they continued to set off, Xi Bai glanced at Ao Zhan, and saw that the other party's face was not very good, maybe he didn't rest well last night, although the possibility of being attacked at the post station was very small, but Ao Zhan was still not at ease, after all, this mission was too important.
"Brother Ao, your face is not very good, are you okay?" Xi Bai asked with a frown.
Ao Zhan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm fine, maybe I didn't rest last night." ”
"Brother Ao, you can't do this, otherwise you will fall down first before the other party comes, you know, if the person who comes really has a first-class master, it will definitely not work on me alone." Xi Bai said with a straight face.
Ao Zhan nodded solemnly after hearing this, and then smiled at Xi Bai, "I know, thank you Brother Xi Bai for reminding me, I will pay attention." ”
Ao Zhan said as he took a deep breath, then slowly closed his eyes and began to pretend to sleep. Xi Bai also smiled slightly, and he also entered the cultivation.
Another day passed, and the surroundings were still calm, but as evening came, Ao Zhan's face became even heavier, because they could no longer spend the night at the post station tonight, but had to camp in the wilderness, which meant that the possibility of being attacked would be greatly increased.
However, such a thing as traveling overnight could never be done, and then people were sleepy and tired, and there was no resistance at all in the event of an attack. As a last resort, Ao Zhan had no choice but to lead the dart team down the official road, and then set up camp in an open place on the side.
Xi Bai carefully looked at the surrounding environment, the place chosen by Ao Zhan was not far from the official road, and the surroundings were relatively empty, without the obstruction of mountains and woods, and everything was in full view at a glance. Although such an environment can't block the wind and rain, but at the same time, it will not be easily attacked, and as a martial artist, he naturally doesn't care if he waits for the wind and rain.
After arranging the task of the vigil patrol, Ao Zhan walked towards Xi Bai's side.
"Brother Ao, what's the matter?" Although Xi Bai already had some guesses about the intention of Ao Zhan in his heart, he still asked.
"Brother Xi Bai, I think the possibility of being attacked tonight is very high, if ...... If you can, be extra vigilant to avoid the unexpected. Ao Strategy said a little uncomfortably, after all, he just said that he would let Xi Bai help deal with possible attackers, but he didn't expect that Xi Bai would have a vigil now, which made him a little embarrassed.
Xi Bai secretly said in his heart that this was indeed the case, but at the same time, he smiled on his face: "There is no problem, Brother Ao can rest assured, I will be more careful." ”
"Then it's troublesome brother, please rest assured, I will definitely not forget my brother's help this time when I go back." Ao Zhan apprentice Xi Bai agreed, and a smile appeared on his face, patted Xi Bai's shoulder, and said with a sincere gaze.
"Hehe, where is Brother Ao, since I agreed to this mission, I naturally have to do my best." Xi Bai said disapprerovingly.
Ao Zhan didn't say anything more, nodded at Xi Bai, and walked towards the void again.
Void is the same as Xi Bai, he is usually alone, and he doesn't communicate with people who are arrogant, Shi Fang originally wanted to communicate with the other party, but unfortunately under the cold attitude of Void Phase, he only left in a sneer.
Xi Bai looked at the void phase that was silently watching the fire, and thought in his heart what conditions Ao Zhan had reached with the other party, so he would invite the other party to help him do the task.
However, at the beginning, Void Appearance said that he would compete with him after he recovered from his injury, but he has not been looked for until now, which makes Xi Bai a little incomprehensible. However, when the other party came, Xi Bai naturally wouldn't go to the other party by himself, it wasn't that he was afraid of the opponent, after all, after looking at it, although the strength of the void phase was good, it was not to the point where he was afraid.
It is true that Xi Bai is also eager to fight with masters in order to improve his actual combat ability, but his top priority now is to reach the realm of first-class masters as soon as possible, and now that the other party does not come to him, then he is also happy to do so, just let him concentrate on cultivation.
Just when Xi Bai was thinking, he happened to see Ao Zhan and Void Xiang say a few words, and then saw Void Phase nodded, and then glanced at him.
Xi Bai was stunned, could it be that what Ao Zhan said had something to do with him? Before he could think about it, he saw the Void Phase get up and walk towards him, Xi Bai kept watching the other party approach, he knew that the Void Phase couldn't come to him for no reason.
"You're in the middle of the night, I'm in the middle of the night." The nothingness in a silk robe looked like a traveling boy, not far in front of Xi Bai, and he didn't sit down, and after saying this without a head, he turned around and returned to the place just now and sat down, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
Xi Bai was dumbfounded, and it took a long time to understand what the other party meant, asking him to stay in the middle of the night and hand it over to the other party in the second half of the night. Xi Bai couldn't laugh or cry, he remembered that although the void was also very arrogant before, it was not as cold as it is now. Xi Bai thought about it for a long time and didn't know what was going on, so he simply didn't think about it anymore.
It's just that Xi Bai can't cultivate now, but fortunately, he has been cultivating all the time, and his spirit is very good, and the vigil is naturally not a problem, but it's just a little boring.
Xi Bai looked at the fire, and he was a little expecting those attackers to appear soon. But it wasn't until Nothingness opened his eyes and nodded at him that the attackers didn't show up. Xi Bai knew that it was already the second half of the night, and since the attacker did not appear, he had no choice, and then entered the cultivation.
The quiet night passed quickly, and nothing happened. Early in the morning, Xi Bai saw that Ao Zhan's face was very unsightly, and he knew that the other party was in a bad mood, so he didn't go over to talk to the other party. And the other proud members also saw that their helper was in a bad mood and didn't know what was going on, but Ao Zhan didn't say anything, and they didn't want to ask much.
After the group sorted out their things, they set off in silence, although Xi Bai was also a little anxious in his heart, but he was only here to help with this dart mission after all, so after going to the official road, Xi Bai began his own cultivation, anyway, if the attacker came, someone would naturally wake him up.
It's just that what Xi Bai didn't expect was that for four or five days in a row, they all spent it in peace, not to mention the first-class masters that Ao Zhan said might be, even ordinary robbers didn't encounter them.
