Chapter 16: Bandits are rampant

Funiu Mountain is located in the southwest of the hinterland of the Central Plains, and connected to Tongbai Mountain in the southeast. Its momentum is vast. The main peak, Laojun Mountain, is high into the clouds. It is rainy and foggy. The mountain is full of green, with strange stones and trees. It is really hard to imagine that anyone lives here.

Chen Rufeng sat in the dark for an hour, but due to excessive gas consumption, he only recovered less than one fifth, but his physical strength recovered quickly and was extremely abundant.

"Why do you always come to me?" Jiang Shengtian sat next to him sullenly, and the two rested on a hillside, where the trees were small, but mostly thousands of shapes of stones. Because Chen Rufeng did not know the direction and exhausted his physical strength, he could only rush to fall here. Seeing that the surrounding mountains were surrounded and the heights were full of trees, he was afraid that there were beasts lying in the depths, so the two planned to leave immediately after Chen Rufeng's true spirit recovered.

Chen Ru stood up in discouraged, looked at the mountains shrouded in clouds and fog, and said, "Because they all sensed the true qi flowing in my body. I am strong and weak, of course, I choose the weak one."

Jiang Shengtian listened silently, bowed his head, and his hidden heart surged up again. Seeing that Jiang Sheng was wrong, Chen Rufeng knew that he had said something wrong and hurriedly said, "They know that I will definitely not give up you, so..."

"To put it this way, it's me dragging you down." Jiang Shengtian said coldly, "I am born with defects and can't learn martial arts. I must be tied with you as a hero."

Chen Rufeng didn't know how to answer for a moment. He knew that Jiang Shengtian had always been worried about his inability to learn martial arts, which could be poked by him.

"We two brothers, how can we distinguish between you and me? If I learn martial arts, it means that you learn martial arts... Moreover, mine is just light martial arts..." Chen Rufeng panicked, but Jiang Shengtian showed hatred and said, "The one with a physical obstruction is not you. Of course you say so! Have you ever thought about how I felt when I was caught by them? Why can only I be weak? If you and Chen Rufeng lose your position, the one who is always targeted is by no means me!"

Chen Rufeng watched Jiang Shengtian leave angrily, and after a while, he chased his back and ran to the dense forest on the high hillside.

The wind suddenly rose, and near the end of autumn, the chill came unexpectedly. What's more, it was located in the mountains, which was even colder. Chen Rufeng was just wrapped in thin clothes and couldn't help shivering.

Chen Rufeng has been following Jiang Shengtian and did not let him out of sight.

Jiang Shengtian stopped and angrily punched a tall tree trunk next to him. What gave him back was only a burst of pain from fist to meat.

Chen Rufeng looked at him, paused, and dared not approach him again to let him be quiet alone.

Suddenly, a burst of ominous hit my heart, and it seemed that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them. Chen Rufeng looked around. Although he noticed strange things, only the sunshade trees stood alone around him.

Jiang Shengtian continued to move forward slowly, and Chen Rufeng followed.

The birds sang quickly, and several white birds spread their wings and fled under the direct sunlight.

The whistling whistle suddenly pierced the whole mountain forest. As soon as the whistle passed, the people in the forest were in chaos. Dozens of people gathered in the direction of Jiang Shengtian in all directions. It seemed that they were all coarse linen, revealing their broad arms and holding long sticks and sharp knives. Without thinking about it, they knew that they were thieves on the mountain.

Chen Rufeng screamed and hid behind a big tree, observing the situation with sharp eyes. At the same time, he ran the only little true qi left in his body and was ready to take action.

The leading thief roared, "Goodly hand over the silver on your body and let you live!"

Jiang Shengtian had been scared to death, and his feet collapsed to the ground. He didn't know that Chen Rufeng had been following him all of the time, and he suddenly felt helpless.

"I... I don't have silver..." Jiang Shengtian stammed, and all the thieves scolded angrily, and the leading thief said coldly: "There is no silver, leaving lives!"

As soon as the words fell, Chen Rufeng suddenly turned into a shadow and robbed the bandits, shaped like a winged eagle, hanging his claws to catch prey. Chen Rufeng grabbed Jiang Shengtian's shoulder with both hands and took him out of danger.

The thieves didn't seem to be probious, so they could only see them leave safely in the air.

"Bum!"

The two fell to the ground heavily, and the true qi in Chen Rufeng's body was exhausted again. He only flew for dozens of miles and failed to escape from the woods.

"Ah..." Chen Rufeng moaned in pain, and Jiang Shengtian was lying on him with a very painful face.

Chen Rufeng tried to push Jiang Shengtian to one side, raised his hands, calmed his ears and eyes, and no one heard anything before he fainted Jiang Shengtian.

Jiang Shengtian woke up and looked at Chen Rufeng with scars on his face. Thinking of his behavior just now, he said with guilt, "Are you all right?"

Chen Rufeng saw Jiang Shengtian's resentment and said with a wry smile, "I still can't die."

Jiang Shengtian helped Chen Rufeng with his hand. His feet were so numb that he could only rely on Jiang Shengtian's help to move forward.

"I told you that you are my brother. Why did I lose it and you didn't care?" Chen Rufeng pretended to complain, as if angry and smiling.

"Oc's it, thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't know how many times I died. Jiang Shengtian apologized and helped Chen Rufeng walk along the endless forest path in front of him.

Chen Rufeng suddenly said, "It's really strange. Why can't that powerful strangeness be used when I face Lin Chengjun and walking on ice?"

Jiang Shengtian thought for a moment and said, "That strangeness is extremely mysterious. How can you use it as you want? It may be provoked under any specific circumstances."

"I was furious at that time, as if even my reason would be swallowed up. Shouldn't it be that I can only play a role when I'm angry?" Chen Rufeng guessed, and Jiang Shengtian nodded and agreed.

"Maybe it's true. But that stone must be an ominous thing. It's better to use less of your strangeness. Jiang Shengtian warned for the second time.

The two have been walking for nearly half an hour, but they still can't escape from the boundless forest, as if they have fallen into the endless maze.

"If it goes on like this, I'm afraid we will starve to death before we are caught by the mountain thieves." Jiang Shengtian was already hungry. Looking at the heavy sunset, a sense of despair came.

Chen Rufeng comforted, "Don't be afraid. I think we can get out of this ghost mountain before entering the dark." But his stomach beat a few drums, and the two could only look at each other with a wry smile.

Continued to move forward aimlessly. As the hunger of the two gradually increased, their legs and feet began to soften and their steps became unstable.

Suddenly, the ground under their feet collapsed, and the two of them fell sharply as if they were stepping on the air, which turned out to be a hole covered by leaves, like an artificial trap.

He fell heavily again, and the two of them were injured and screamed.

"We fell into a trap." Jiang Shengtian looked at it. This pit is two feet deep. If Chen Rufeng is full of spirit, it must be easy to get out of this pit. But now both of them are injured. Coupled with the fact that they haven't eaten for a long time, their physical strength is extremely low. I'm afraid that only Daluo immortals can save them.

Chen Rufeng sighed and said, "Why are we so lucky? We have been chased and killed repeatedly, and now we have fallen into the trap."

Jiang Shengtian smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't you say that we were lucky and met so many nobles along the way?"

Chen Rufeng looked up at the hole hanging above his head, and could only meditate and absorb it to see if he could recover part of his true qi and get out of the hole.

The two are now like prey falling into the net, waiting obediently for others to slaughter.

Twilight is approaching, and the vision in the cave is gradually immersed in darkness.

Chen Rufeng stopped mediting and met Jiang Shengtian's expectant eyes. He could only sigh a few times and shook his head.

"If you don't take me with you, can you be sure to leave here?" Jiang Shengtian asked, Chen Rufeng was shocked and said firmly, "Don't say stupid things. I will never leave my brother behind."

"I can't be your burden anymore. Get out of here first and find a way to save me." Jiang Shengtian's tone was already weak, and Chen Rufeng refused, "If you want to go, let's go together!"

"You don't have to go." A gloating sound came from the mouth of the cave. The two looked up and saw a circle of mountain thieves surrounding the mouth of the cave, with victory and greed on everyone's faces.
