After watching the leopard fall and remain motionless, Qin Wanfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up shakily and sat next to the campfire.

At this moment, he recalled the dangerous scene just now. He was grateful in his heart and secretly happy that he had saved a life. He turned his head and looked around, then picked up the short knife and held it in front of his chest with both hands, smelling The liquid with bloody aura on his face kept observing the surroundings with sharp eyes.

The previous sleepiness had turned into nothingness at this moment, leaving only a fearful and restless heart, and the person on the carriage was still drooling and mumbling something unknown.

Time passed slowly, and when the sky was still dark, Che Li was awakened by the urge to urinate. He sat up unsteadily and shook his heavy head. At this time, his head was still a little aching, and his head was still aching. Looking around, he didn't see Qin Wanfeng sleeping on the carriage. He immediately turned his head and looked forward, only to find that Qin Wanfeng was already sitting next to the bonfire, and his body was even trembling. Che Liang asked doubtfully;

"Boy! Why did you wake up so early? Didn't you sleep last night?"

Qin Wanfeng ignored him. Cha Li seemed to be vaguely aware that something was wrong, because the scene was filled with a smell of blood. Seeing this, Cha Li sat in the car and looked around, and found that he was two miles away from the carriage to the right of his sight. There was a pool of blood three steps away, and the blood stain formed a straight line along the edge of the forest not far away.

"brat?"

Cha Li was confused and shouted again. At this time, Qin Wanfeng turned around. When Cha Li saw Qin Wanfeng, he couldn't help being shocked. He saw that the left half of Qin Wanfeng's face was covered with bright red blood, his clothes were torn, and his shoulders were covered with blood. Claw marks were clearly visible on it. At the same time, his trembling hands were holding the dagger tightly. His face was full of fear and uneasiness, and his blood-red eyes exuded a fierce aura.

Seeing this, Che Li hurriedly climbed out of the car and walked to Qin Wanfeng in a few steps. He stepped forward to check his body. He looked at Qin Wanfeng's broken shoulders and wiped Qin Wanfeng's dry face. After seeing the blood stains, he found that Qin Wanfeng was not injured, but was just too frightened, so he asked;

"Boy, why are you like this? What happened last night?"

After seeing that Qin Wanfeng was not harmed, he was secretly happy but also regretful. He blamed himself for drinking too much wine last night. With this thought in his mind, he reached out and slapped himself.

Qin Wanfeng, who had not yet recovered from the fright, pointed at the edge of the forest not far from the right front of the carriage. Cha Li looked over. In fact, he had already noticed the abnormality when he was sitting on the carriage. Immediately, Cha Li walked along the carriage. The blood stain came forward to check,

As soon as he walked to the crushed grass, Che Lion discovered the leopard lying in a pool of blood. Its huge size and sharp fangs all indicated that this was a newly adult leopard. There were traces of blood flowing out from its fangs, and its fat body and tail were more than half a foot long.

Looking at the leopard's front legs and bright red belly stained with blood, Che Li broke into a cold sweat. He glanced at Qin Wanfeng, who was sitting next to the campfire, with surprise in his eyes.

He never imagined that Qin Wanfeng's seemingly frail body could actually kill an adult leopard. If it hadn't been for Qin Wanfeng last night, he might have become the leopard's meal.

Looking at the leopard in front of him, Che Lion grabbed it and threw it in the car. After the two simply ate dry food, they got on the carriage and headed towards the city lord's palace motorcade.

There was no words all the way. Qin Wanfeng and Che Lili seemed to be silent. Qin Wanfeng looked at the body of the leopard next to him and couldn't help but feel scared.

The driver in front of the carriage was driving the carriage alone, but what was different from his previous calmness was that now he was taciturn and no longer humming a ditty that even he himself did not understand.

On the other side, the convoy of the City Lord's Mansion had just set off. Because there were family members accompanying them, it took some time for the women to dress up, so there was a slight delay.

The teams on both sides were less than a hundred feet apart, and the two sides seemed to have a tacit understanding. No one overtook the other.

On the carriage on the other side of Qin Wanfeng and Cha Li, Cha Li glanced at Qin Wanfeng, and then slowly spoke;

"Boy, what happened when he fell to the ground last night? What happened to the leopard?"

Che Li was always puzzled, and Qin Wanfeng, who was too frightened, did not speak until half a day passed and saw that Qin Wanfeng was much calmer before he asked. Qin Wanfeng saw that Che Li asked again and was silent for a moment before he said;

"Last night, after you went to bed,...!"

Qin Wanfeng told exactly what happened last night. At first, Che Li was a little surprised, but later when he heard Qin Wanfeng shouting for help, he was indifferent. He couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and his face was burning.

I also blame myself for being greedy and drinking an extra bottle of wine last night, which led to this happening.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I drank too much before going to bed last night! I slept like crazy! I'm sorry, kid!"

After saying that, he burst into laughter and was silent all the way. The carriages on both sides moved in the same direction.

It was approaching noon, and the originally gloomy sky gradually became dense with clouds, then thunder rolled, and then a drizzle began.

After the drizzle, the weeds on both sides of the road were covered with crystal clear dew. The originally dusty and rugged mountain road now became bumpy, muddy and slippery, which added resistance to the advancing convoy.

As night fell, the rain had stopped. From the endless mountains on both sides of the mountain road, the sound of howling wolves could be heard. After a day's long journey, the convoy of the City Lord's Mansion passed by for a short while as it approached a post station. After repairing, we continued to move forward under the dim moonlight,

Two or three miles ahead of them, there was a checkpoint built on the natural terrain. This was the Hangu Pass, which was the entrance to and from the heart of the Great Chu Kingdom.

The entire Chu State is divided into two parts, the inner and outer parts, with Hangu Pass as the boundary. Outside Hangu Pass is a hilly land called the Hongdu Plain. It has a vast area and fertile land. It has always been a battleground between the Great Chu State and its enemy. ,

The Hongdu Plain was divided into two parts, with the Chu State occupying the vast majority and the enemy countries occupying only a small part.

To the west of Hangu Pass, there is a vast and mysterious forest of unknown size. This forest is shrouded in fog all year round. If ordinary people enter it by mistake, they will definitely lose their way and disappear in it.

To the east of Hangu Pass is a land of endless tall mountains. The mountain roads are rugged, the peaks are towering into the clouds, and there are many vegetation and wild animals. Therefore, some people in the martial arts are accustomed to establishing sects here. Once they come, they can pick some herbs to sustain them. Make a living and improve your life. Secondly, you can catch some wild animals in exchange for some rations. Thirdly, you can stay away from the hustle and bustle of the world, practice martial arts quietly, and polish your mind.

Within Hangu Pass, there is a plain area with beautiful mountains and clear waters, beautiful scenery and rich products. It is also the source of the main food crops of the Chu Kingdom.

Qin Wanfeng and the others need to pass through Hangu Pass, then pass by Hongdu Mansion, and trek all the way to the east of Hangu Pass to reach Qingfeng Mountain.

After taking a short rest at the inn, under the moonlight, Qin Wanfeng and the others moved forward without stopping, and soon they arrived at Hangu Pass. When they entered the pass, Qin Wanfeng still had blood stains on his face, and he was attacked. During the interrogation by the officers guarding the pass, Che Liang took out the leopard and dispelled the officers' doubts. After paying the customs exit fee, Qin Wanfeng and his two men repaired inside the pass.

In Hangu Pass, there is a very small town. It is not large and only has a dozen buildings. There are restaurants, inns and so on. These are all built by the merchants who come and go for better rest or transactions. Na Cheli was quite familiar with this, so the two of them found an inn and rested.

The cost of the accommodation was the leopard stabbed to death by Qin Wanfeng. That night, after Che Li changed a strong horse at Hangu Pass and purchased some dry food and water, he felt relieved, because next The road to Qingfeng Mountain is not easy to walk, and it is sparsely populated and bandits are rampant.

If you are not careful, you will lose both your life and money, so you need to take more precautions. At night, in the house, Che Liang and Qin Wanfeng talked about the attack last night;

"Boy! I can't tell, you are very brave!"

Qin Wanfeng smiled self-deprecatingly and said;

"Is it big? Haha! It was just a matter of life and death, and I had to fight hard! Think about how much my eldest brother has sacrificed for me, and my mother's expectations. If I was eaten by that evil beast without any reason, what would happen? I feel most sorry for my family!"

"Well! In my opinion, you have understood the basic beliefs required by a warrior!"

Qin Wanfeng looked at Cha Lili with confusion. He didn't know what Cha Lili meant, so he asked;

"How do you say this? Just because I killed that evil beast, I have faith?"

Qin Wanfeng asked back, Che Liong smiled, and after taking a sip of tea, he said calmly;
