Chapter 17: Outside Tianxiang City

"Wait until dawn before you go out of town. Du Fan sighed.

The city gate in front is brightly lit, rows of guards patrol under the city wall with knives, the majestic city gate is closed, and there are teams of soldiers constantly walking on the ten-zhang high city wall. With the strength of the three of them, it is absolutely impossible to get out of here without realizing it.

It's not that Du Fan didn't think about explaining the matter of Wu Hao's father and son to Yao Batian in person, as well as the second master Yao Lingtian...... But this matter is very important and widely implicated, even the coup d'Γ©tat of the Purple Mountain Sect and other immortal sects is involved, how can the head of the Yao family be gullible.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if the head of the Yao family believes that what he said is true, the Yao family's century-old foundation, there are thousands of people up and down, whether Yao Batian will protect the interests of the family at the expense of his daughter, this is a difficult thing to say, as long as Yao Batian secretly gets rid of his brother Yao Lingtian, and then marries his daughter to Wu Hao, even if Wu Hao's father and son take some risks, they have to cooperate with Yao Batian, and then the Yao family will become part of Wu Hao's father and son's forces...... As a result, Yao Batian is still in charge of the family and has great power.

Therefore, Du Fan can't take risks, and must first ensure Ruoxi's safety. And he and Ruoxi both disappeared into Yao's house, and Xiaohu, who had always been close to them, could not continue to stay, and they had to take all of them away, as for the rest, it would be a matter for the future. ,...,

Yao Ruoxi and Xiaohu are nothing, but this night is too long for Du Fan, but fortunately, the sky is getting brighter, and it is expected that the city gate will be opened in another half an hour.

The booming and dull sound slowly spread, and the city gate was finally opened by the guards guarding the city, Du Fan was in good spirits, and beckoned Xiaohu and the two to go straight to the city gate.

Leaving the city and entering the city were different, and there would be no checks, although the guards were a little surprised that the three men had left the city so early, but they did not stop them.

After the three of them walked out of the city gate, Du Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say something to the two of them, when the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near.

"Yao Family Master Yao Batian Order. You wait and take down the three people in front of you quickly, don't hurt your life, you can't make a mistake!" Before the cavalry had even galloped to the city gate, he threw an iron token in his hand dozens of kilometers in front of him and fell into the crowd of guards.

"It is indeed the token of the head of the Yao family, go, take down these three people!" An order from the commander of the Praetorian Guard, dozens of people rushed out of the city, heading straight for Du Fan and the three of them.

"Run south, it's a jungle!" When he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Du Fan realized that something was wrong and led the two of them to run south.

"Xiaohu, Jin Shengshu!" Yao Ruoxi, who was running wildly, shouted. ,...,

"Yes!"

While running, Xiaohu pinched the trick with one hand, and after a few spells in his mouth, he pointed at Du Fan and Yao Ruoxi's legs continuously. Finally, he also punched the trick into his legs.

The legs of the three of them suddenly shone with golden light, and they were illusory at first, but in an instant, they began to solidify, as if their legs were plated with a thick layer of metal.

Du Fan suddenly felt a strange force from the legs and feet instantly, making the legs strong and powerful, under a kick, the body suddenly jumped forward a distance, a few steps later, has left the place ten zhang away, the speed is more than twice as fast as their own limit speed, looking left and right, found that the two little tigers are the same, and then look back, has been and the rear guard of the distance instantly opened, the heart is happy.

However, when he saw that the person who had come to report the news also came on horseback, his brow furrowed.

"Ruoxi, find a way to abolish the war horse behind!"

"No problem!"

A half-foot-long water dagger emerged, and at the same time as Yao Ruoxi's white slender hand shook back, the dagger shot towards the war horse behind him in an instant.

The war horse neighed, fell to the ground in an instant, and under the inertia of the pull, it was drawn far away before it stopped, and the blood of the horse on the ground dragged for a long time, **, as for life and death, no one knew. ...,

,...,

And the armor soldier on the horse, his body flipped in the air, and he stood firmly on the ground, his skills were extremely agile, but he could no longer pose a threat to Du Fan and the three of them.

An hour later, Du Fan and the others ran to the edge of the jungle as planned, and without hesitation, they entered decisively, and several figures shook for a few moments before they disappeared.

Half a day later, Du Fan and the others sat under a rather thick tree, wheezing violently, unable to speak, and at this time, on their legs and feet, the metal technique had disappeared. It took a long time for them to be calmed down.

Du ...... Du Fan, we are now, have ...... It's already out of the realm of Tianxiang City. Yao Ruoxi was still a little panting, but she could barely speak.

"It should be, it's safe for the time being, rest here for a while, eat something first, and I'll tell you about this matter in detail, I didn't expect the head of the family to find out so quickly." Du Fan took a deep breath and was jealous of the head of the family.

"Sister Ruoxi...... Do you have anything to eat there?" Xiaohu looked at Yao Ruoxi pitifully.

"I didn't bring anything to eat, I only brought clothes and silver, what about you, Du Fan?" Yao Ruoxi was stunned and turned her head to look at Du Fan.

"I, I've been planning this, how can I care about this? Xiaohu, don't you have chicken legs? Du Fan was also stunned. ,...,

"I brought some chicken drumsticks, but ...... But when I squatted at the South City Gate last night, I had already eaten it all. Brother Du, you know me, even if it is those, it is not enough. Xiaohu's face was slightly red, and he was a little embarrassed.

This time, Du Fan was really a little speechless.

"So, we don't have anything to satisfy our hunger now?" Yao Ruoxi was dumbfounded.

"I think so. Du Fan rolled his eyes directly.

"It's a jungle with a wide variety of plants, and I wonder if I know anything about them, some of which I can eat. Don't worry, we won't die of hunger, and by the way, I'll talk to you about it, let's go. Du Fan got up helplessly, patted his buttocks, and walked forward first.

Yao Ruoxi and Xiaohu glanced at each other, and their mood was a little low, so they could only get up and follow Du Fan.

......

"What? Wu Hao, that bastard, the old lady has long looked at him unpleasantly, and knows that he is a sanctimonious guy, but I didn't expect him to be such a bastard, it's just **!" After Yao Ruoxi listened to Du Fan's narration, she was furious, her eyes were about to breathe fire, and her hair was faintly standing up.

"Sister Ruoxi, that person is so bad, you must not marry him. Xiaohu clenched his fists and showed anger on his face. ,...,

"Phew, whoever wants to marry him, marry him, the old lady castrated him that day in the cave room!" Yao Ruoxi was already so angry that her face turned pale and she scolded.

Du Fan glanced at the woman. The eyebrow frame twitched.

"But he doesn't look like that. It was still hard for Xiaohu to imagine how the humble gentleman of the day could be this kind of person, but he had absolute trust in Du Fan, but he was just a little in a trance.

"I don't know my heart, don't mention him anymore, thinking of him, I am going to vomit the grass I just ate. Hey, Dufan, what did you just give me?"

Yao Ruoxi was still angry at this time, and looked at Du Fan's eyes, with a residual touch of fierceness, which made Du Fan's heart skip a beat.

"This grass is called Artemisia grass, although the taste is not delicious, but it is not unpalatable, it is better to clear heat and relieve heat, cool blood and dispel stasis, and it is also a good medicinal material, you can rest assured. Du Fan didn't dare to slack off, he told everything he knew, he just talked little and was quiet, but he was not stupid, this woman was on the verge of going berserk now, he didn't want to lead the other party's evil fire to himself.

"Well, by the way, Du Fan, wouldn't my father also have ** annoyance, let's leave like this, he is, I am a little worried. After a long time, Yao Ruoxi's mood calmed down a little, and after calming down, she worried about her father. ...,

,...,

"I have considered this matter, and when you are safe, I will inform the head of the family of this matter through letters and other means, so that he can take precautions, and believe that with the wisdom and experience of the head of the family, it will not be difficult to resolve this crisis. ”

Du Fan didn't mention Yao Lingtian's matter, now that things are more complicated and complicated enough, if Yao Ruoxi knew about his second uncle's matter, he would inevitably be worried and bitter, so he omitted to mention it.

......

After the sun set, the jungle was darker than outside, and the three of them still walked slowly south, stopping to pick some plants to eat.

"Let's rest for the night, and tomorrow we will walk another day, and we should be able to get out of this jungle, and when the time comes, we will go to the nearest town, find another restaurant, and have a good meal, and now we are poor and have only silver left." ”

Du Fan's words were extremely morale-boosting, and Xiaohu and Yao Ruoxi were in good spirits when they heard it.

"Brother Du, silence!" Xiaohu's face suddenly changed, and he suddenly spoke.

After the magic trick in Xiaohu's hand changed, a ball of golden light appeared in front of him...... After condensing again, it changed into a golden bell the size of a fist, and a sound came from this bell.

"Brother Hu, the footprints here were just left, and they should be not far ahead. ”,...,

"Well, chase them, and be sure to bring them back. A sigh.

Du Fan's face changed greatly, and he could tell that among the people he was chasing, one of them was Hu Daniu, and there was also a young man, but it was not just him, and they should all be cultivators.

Xiaohu looked nervous, and after dispersing the spell, the golden bell collapsed and disappeared.

"It's Uncle Hu, I know his voice. Yao Ruoxi said suddenly.

"Xiaohu, how far are they from us?" Du Fan asked, a little irritated in his heart.

"It's about five miles away. Xiaohu affirmed.

"They are all Yao family cultivators, and it seems that they are all true cultivators above the first level of Qi refining, and we are by no means opponents. In this way, we can go separately and reduce the pressure on each other. After we get out of this jungle, keep heading south, don't stop in any town except for necessary supplies, and keep out of the country of Tianxiang.

I once saw a map near Tianxiang Country, the south of Tianxiang Country is the Fire Feather Country, and there is a border town at the junction of the Fire Feather Country and the Tianxiang Country, Xinghuo Town, which belongs to the Fire Feather Country, where there are many pedestrians coming and going from other countries, dragons and snakes are mixed, and it is most suitable for hiding. Xiaohu, you go with Ruoxi, you have to listen to her in everything, remember!" Du Fan looked solemn and said calmly, planning the future for the two. ,...,

"Du Fan, what do you mean, don't we go together?" Yao Ruoxi looked nervous and unwilling to separate.

Although Xiaohu didn't speak, he looked at Du Fan with a pair of pitiful eyes, with strong reluctance, and grabbed Du Fan's sleeve involuntarily with both hands.

"Let's go separately, we have a good chance of escaping, don't be like this, we'll see each other soon, don't rub it off. If you hesitate, we won't be able to run!You don't have to worry about me, I know the plants very well, if I want to dodge in this jungle, no one will be able to catch me, but you, you must be careful, don't look back, go quickly, see you in Xinghuo Town!" Du Fan became more and more irritable, the distance of five miles is not worth mentioning for cultivators, and it will be there in a moment.

"Are you trying to kill me!" Du Fan shook Xiaohu's hand away and pushed him forward fiercely.

"Then take care, we must see you in Xinghuo Town!" Yao Ruoxi bit her lower lip tightly, a crystal flashed in her eyes, she turned around suddenly, took Xiaohu's chubby palm, and left into the distance.

Xiaohu looked back at Du Fan frequently, his mouth opening and opening, but he didn't know what to say, until the trees blocked his vision and disappeared into the darkness.

Du Fan took a deep breath, picked up a leafy branch, swept away the footprints left by the two, and was about to take a step in the other direction, when a soft sigh suddenly sounded not far away. ,...,

"Brother Du, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave. ”
