Chapter 279 Entering Qinling Mountains
…………
Zhao Manyan's face looked a little unhappy. If conditions allowed, he really wanted to slap Zhao Tingxi and Mo Fan respectively.
Damn, how come I have become the unit of measurement in your eyes?
But Zhao Manyan did not deny it. After all, his defense ability was not as strong as Zhao Tingxi's. If he was stubborn now, according to Zhao Tingxi's personality, he would most likely be exposed by Zhao Tingxi.
Seeing Mo Fan and Zhao Tingxi working together to put pressure on Zhao Manyan, Zhang Xiaohou couldn't help but laugh. Brother Fan and Brother Xi were still as sharp-tongued as ever.
…………
After nightfall, the town is exceptionally quiet.
A few people walked together on the streets of the town and found that there was not even a late-night snack shop here.
In fact, all the lights in the town were turned off before nine o'clock. Except for the sentry posts and patrol towers for night patrols, the whole town was dark.
"Woooooooo~~~~~~~~~~"
The Qinling Mountains are right in front of everyone. This mountain is not very similar to the mountains in the south. The mountains in the south are like cones of different sizes scattered on the ground, so when you fly high into the sky, you can often find that the mountains below are one by one.
The Qinling Mountains are obviously more continuous, with a very obvious black mountain dividing line running high in front of the eyes, completely blocking the view. One needs to raise the head significantly to be able to see the night.
"The wind blowing on the mountain is the Suo wind, and it has been blowing very strongly recently. In a situation like this, we usually don't go out." Zhang Xiaohou said, "But Brother Xi, if you want to feel the strength of the Suo wind, you can go outside now and try it."
"Okay!" Zhao Tingxi nodded: "Xiao Hou, please lead the way."
"no problem!"
Led by Zhang Xiaohou, several people left the town.
After leaving the town, we soon arrived at the edge of the Qinling Mountains.
The border between Qinling Mountains and the town is very obvious and can be roughly divided by a line. Inside the dividing line, the Suo wind is raging, and the "woooo" sound makes people feel a little uneasy. Outside the dividing line, it is calm and peaceful, not affected by the Suo wind at all.
This clear distinction is magical to watch.
"It's worthy of being called Qinling. There's not even a gust of wind here." Mo Fan looked at Qinling and felt a little emotional for a moment.
"Brother Xi, be careful. This Sufeng wind can be very uncomfortable when it hits people." Zhang Xiaohou reminded.
Zhao Tingxi nodded: "Don't worry, I will watch it. If you can't stand it, I won't force you to continue."
As he spoke, Zhao Tingxi covered his hand with a layer of khaki film, and then Zhao Tingxi put his hand into Suofeng.
After extending his hand, Zhao Tingxi couldn't help but frown.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiaohou asked with concern when he saw Zhao Tingxi frowning.
Zhao Tingxi shook his head and said, "The power of the Suo wind is not as strong as I imagined. I can completely block the Suo wind with such a thin layer of defense. Let me try to save the most magic energy and ensure that I will not be affected by the Suo wind." After that, Zhao Tingxi gradually reduced the magic output of the film on his hand. When it was reduced to about 50% of the original, Zhao Tingxi felt that his hand was a little bit blown by the wind.
Afterwards, Zhao Tingxi thought for a moment and said, "If I don't use the earth element to fight, and continue to use magic to protect the eight of us, we should be able to hold out for at least forty-eight hours."
"More than forty-eight hours?!" Zhang Xiaohou opened his mouth in shock. Obviously, he was shocked by Zhao Tingxi.
Zhao Tingxi nodded: "My earth element is somewhat special. As long as I stand on the ground, I can continuously restore my magic energy through the earth. Although the speed is a bit slow, it is much better than constantly consuming it."
What Zhao Tingxi said was actually a lot more conservative, because according to Zhao Tingxi's ability, he was leading the seven of them in Qinling Mountains. Even if the Qinling wind kept blowing without interruption, he was confident that he could ensure that the magic protection would not be interrupted.
"That's amazing!" Zhang Xiaohou gave Zhao Tingxi a thumbs up. "If that's the case, then I'm relieved. With Brother Xi's protection, I think we can easily enter the mountain even in the wind."
"In that case, let's go back first, have a good rest for the night, adjust to the best condition, and set off early tomorrow morning."
…………
In the morning, the howling wind was still raging, but with Zhao Tingxi's magical protection, the problem of the wind was easily solved.
In fact, Zhao Tingxi didn't need to be so anxious to go into the mountains. He could just follow Zhang Xiaohou's advice and wait until the wind subsided in a few days before going into the mountains.
As for the saying that Mo Fan was anxious to enter the super level, it was completely an excuse made up by Zhao Tingxi.
The real reason Zhao Tingxi was willing to do so was that he didn't want to go with the Forbidden Army who would arrive later. If he remembered correctly, the Forbidden Army was arrogant and looked down on others. Their attitudes were terrible. Zhao Tingxi couldn't guarantee that he would be able to resist teaching them a lesson when he went with them.
Now that they have set off a few days in advance, if they can still meet someone from the Forbidden Army, Zhao Tingxi will accept it!
The mountains in Qinling are particularly steep. Before we get too deep into the mountain, the mountain road in front of us turns into a kind of cliff path. On the inside are thick and majestic mountains, and on the outside are steep cliffs and deep valleys. The whistling wind is always blowing past our ears, and a delicate little girl like Lingling could be blown off the cliff at any time.
Taking Lingling's physical strength into consideration, Mo Fan specially summoned Feichuan Snow Wolf so that Lingling could also have a mount.
Just like this, everyone, with Zhao Tingxi's magic protection on their bodies, moved forward little by little against the strong wind.
Although Zhao Tingxi was protecting them with magic, it was still difficult to move forward against the wind.
In addition, when Zhang Xiaohou led the team, he took detours to avoid danger and was very cautious. Although the speed was a little slow, at least the journey was very smooth and basically no monsters were encountered.
"Violent~~~~~~~~~~~!!"
"Violent~~~~~~~~~~!!!!!"
Above the head, several cries suddenly came from two high cliffs. The sound was so high and far away that it was difficult to find its original location after echoing many times up the mountain.
Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan raised their heads and tried to find the creatures that made the noises. However, there were still many places for them to hide on the high cliffs, trees, and rocks, so it was not easy to locate the enemy.
