Chapter 41 Beyond the Watchtower

"It's getting late, let's continue." Seeing that everyone's emotions had stabilized, Xie Dongling said, "Kong Qian, you lead the way."

"Yes." Kong Qian agreed.

The crowd continued to move forward under the guidance of Kong Qian. They didn't meet anyone on the way, but only saw the corpses of some spirit beasts.Meng Xiang and the others quickly identified the murderer through the stench on the corpse.

"This place is already very close to the warning line, and the devil can actually kill spirit beasts here." Kong Qian said while covering his nose.

"Well, the situation of the soldiers in the imperial capital seems to be not very good." Xie Dongling said.

"There's a house over there." The sharp-eyed Peng Zhe spotted a building not far away, and hurriedly called everyone to go.

The house is not a modern building, but rather looks like an ancient watchtower, standing on the border of the cordon.According to Xie Dongling and the others, this is where the soldiers of the imperial capital lived.

"Do you really want to go in?" Kong Qian felt that his legs were weak, and he was unwilling to take another step forward.Fear from the unknown enveloped his whole body, making him let go of his arrogance.

"boom!"

Just when they hesitated, the door of this watchtower suddenly opened.Kong Qian was so frightened by the sound that he hid behind Xie Dongling. After seeing the figure at the door, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing here?"

The soldier at the door was wearing golden armor. He glared at the children in front of him and shouted loudly.

"What are you yelling at?" Kong Qian became arrogant at this moment, and confronted the soldier.

"This is the place of Mount Fanwu. You little brats should be on the outskirts. Come here, do you want to die?" The soldier seemed to realize that his attitude was too fierce, and his tone slowed down a bit.

"There are so many things happening around Fanwu Mountain, don't you soldiers know about it?" Peng Zhe couldn't help but think that their classmates were still alive and dead at this time, but this group of soldiers were leisurely wandering here.

"Have they gone to the periphery?" The soldier's voice was a little hoarse, he was stunned for a while, and sighed, "Come in."

Xie Dongling glanced at everyone and nodded.Since the soldier let them in, let's go in.You should know that during the trial, unless someone applied for assistance, the soldiers were all forbidden to help the students.

However, this soldier received them with an open heart and let them come to his watchtower. They already felt something was wrong.

"It's going to be dark soon. Spend the night here. It's safe here." The soldier came to the side of the room and took off his golden helmet, revealing his long black hair.

At this time, everyone finally saw his face clearly. Behind the gleaming golden armor was the image of a decadent uncle.

His unshaven chin and haggard face made everyone wonder whether they had encountered a fake soldier.Shouldn't the soldiers of the imperial capital be a vigorous figure?The man in front of him is obviously a decadent uncle.

"Recently, visions have occurred frequently in the forest of Fanwu Mountain. We have contacted the headquarters of the imperial capital a long time ago, and they also sent people over, but after so many days of investigation, nothing can be found." Filled with a sense of helplessness.

"Just the day before your trial started, they went back. However, on the afternoon of your trial, a vision appeared in the entire forest. Our group of soldiers stationed here are usually only responsible for maintaining the interior Protective cover, clear up some relatively simple problems, who would have thought that this time the problem is not simple."

"You mean, you have discovered the vision of Mount Fanwu long ago, but you still haven't stopped our trials?" Meng Xiang asked, taking a step forward.

"Yeah. We've already persuaded you, but this is what the higher-ups mean, and there's nothing we can do about it." The uncle sighed, "We've tried our best to ensure the safety of the forest surrounding Mount Fanwu, but we can't afford the price. ..."

"The group of people stationed here with me have received your distress messages, and they have not come back after going out." The uncle looked out of the window with tears in his eyes, "I don't know what happened to them, But I guess it’s more ominous than good.”

It was getting dark, and Meng Xiang and the others camped in the watchtower.

In order to entertain them, Luo Jin dragged out a large iron pot from the house, and he didn't know where to get some ingredients, so he cooked the dishes on the spot.

"It's all the ingredients they found when they went hunting before, and I happen to know how to cook some dishes, otherwise we can only live on military rations here." Luo Jin smiled while shaking the spatula vigorously.

The people ate the military rations for two days in the forest. They swallowed their saliva after seeing no fireworks in the world for a long time.

"It's so deep in the forest, is it really okay at night?" Kong Qian shrank in a corner, trembling.

"Don't worry, there is also a formation set up by the Imperial Capital's formation master. The demon's strength alone cannot break it." Luo Jin put the dishes on a plate and placed them on a large round table.

Everyone directly heated up the rice in the general ration, and then served it on the table.

"The workmanship is good." Peng Zhe smiled while holding up his chopsticks, and then put his head in the bowl again.

"Haha." Luo Jin laughed after hearing Peng Zhe's praise.

After a full meal, everyone fell into a state of decadence and collapsed on the floor.The exhaustion of the past two days was released all at once.

"Tonight, I don't know how many people will suffer." Meng Xiang thought to himself looking at the dark night sky.

Everyone fell asleep soundly, only Meng Xiang and Luo Jin were left awake.

"Boy, are you still worried?" Luo Jin walked to Meng Xiang's side, patted him on the shoulder, and sat down.

Meng Xiang also wanted to fall asleep with them, but his subconscious mind told him he couldn't sleep yet, at least not tonight.

"I'm thinking about my companions. I don't know if they are still alive." Meng Xiang murmured.

"Don't worry, they won't kill people for the time being." Luo Jin comforted, "Don't look at us soldiers just looking at the border here. In fact, we are learning about these demons every year."

"I know more about their habits than you do." Luo Jin boasted.

After hearing this, Meng Xiang calmed down.But even so, the worry in his heart still couldn't dissipate.

"Ow!"

Outside the watchtower, wolves howled again in the dark forest.

"Here we come!" Luo Jin looked slightly startled, took his saber and ran towards the stairs.

"Is it for us or someone nearby?" Meng Xiang didn't dare to neglect, and stood up hastily.

"You go upstairs with me!"

Luo Jin's voice came from the stairs.
