Chapter 53 Wilderness 3

"Cough!" Nan Xiang heard Zhang Cheng coughing heavily. Only then did she realize that her body had been put down, but her hand instinctively hugged the other person's neck.

In shock, she quickly let go of her hand. After standing firmly, she realized what had just happened.

Fly...fly?

It seems that humans have envyed birds since ancient times. Of course, flying has not been a rare thing for modern people. Whether it is hot air balloons, helicopters, aircraft, or umbrellas, etc., in short, flying devices have been popularized now. Let alone these, the hot topic of development is single-person aircraft. However, flying without any tools is still one of the dreams of human beings, and this was just now...

Zhang Cheng was empty behind him and there was no auxiliary flight device.

"You are..." Although she thought Zhang Cheng was a cultivator just now, she was completely convinced of this. This person can fly... This is the most indisputable supernatural ability.

Zhang Cheng didn't say anything, but in fact he continued to walk forward silently. Nan Xiang hurriedly followed.

"You were flying just now." She suddenly said. "How did you do it?"

Nonsense, I wasted two cards, one "brute force" and the other one is "flying technique". A second-level magic and a third-level magic. Well, this is not a waste. After all, no one can do anything about this avalanche. Flying is the easiest way to deal with it. Even without Nan Xiang, Zhang Cheng would use it. However, the brute force technique will not be used.

"You've read it wrong." Zhang Cheng replied. Fortunately, his body is not an earthling at all, and even if he is remembered, it doesn't matter. Or, after doing such a big thing in this country, he also let go. The so-called "breaking jar" is broken. If Gaia had noticed it, she would have noticed it long ago. If she didn't pay attention, he wouldn't have discovered anything else.

"You are a practitioner." Nan Xiang said.

"Many people have this kind of misunderstanding." Zhang Cheng replied. Anyway, he knew that the other party could not do anything to him.

Nan Xiang was muttering in her heart. Yesterday she felt that it was a blessing to escape her life. But human desires are endless. Now she has no worries about her life. She remembers that she had returned from failure this time. As a policeman, she was captured by drug dealers and lost all her equipment and items, which was simply embarrassing. But if this young practitioner could be tricked back, then things would be completely different. She immediately changed from a great failure to a great success, from a letter of review to a letter of praise. Now she is very clear about the popularity of supernatural abilities. Since an undisputed genuine wizard emerged in the United States, the country has paid attention to this aspect.

The problem is that although the Republic has a long history in this regard, it cannot withstand the repeated turmoil and there is not much left in the ancient heritage. As a policeman, she learned that although the country has spent a lot of effort on this regard, it has gained little. At least no one can have this ability directly like this person named Zhang Cheng.

As for how to bring him back... she also knew about these practitioners - or was so guessed. This person must have lived in the mountains for a long time and did not know the world. The limited information came from pedestrians he met by chance (just like this time he met Nan Xiang). He might have known that the surrounding countries have changed dynasties and have now become a republic. He definitely does not understand the flower world of modern civilization. He also knows not much about modern technology. So she feels that as long as she can arouse the other party's curiosity, she will have a chance.

She thought hard, but she regretted that all her personal belongings had fallen into the hands of those drug dealers and had nothing now. She couldn't even use some gadgets to attract his curiosity.

They crossed another ridge line. In fact, the whole walk was to climb over a mountain and another mountain. The mountain behind was higher than the mountain in front. As the altitude line increased, the temperature dropped a little. Of course, after all, I was very lucky today. At least the terrible blizzard did not appear yesterday.

Zhang Cheng stopped, and he felt a little tired - although he couldn't say he was very tired, he really needed a little rest. Of course it was not just him. Nan Xiang, who claimed to be a policeman, was already panting and sweating on her forehead.

If she is really a policeman, it means that her body's endurance is indeed very good. Even the police are inferior to him in terms of endurance. Of course, he knows that his physical fitness is 12, while ordinary people should be 10, which is indeed one level higher.

"What, it seems that the police are not very physically strong?" he asked casually.

Of course, she can't compare to you practitioners. Nan Xiang whispered in her belly. She can see now that this guy named Zhang Cheng is indeed very extraordinary in physical fitness. Although she is a woman, her physical strength will definitely not be inferior to that of a man. Moreover, this time he was really walking empty-handed, but he could only say that he could barely keep up.

Standing at a high place and stop for a while, enjoying the vast ups and downs of nature. Although it is a bit too desolate - you can't see a little green within your sight or anything that can move, but this has another kind of beauty.

"That's..." Nan Xiang screamed. Her finger pointed to a depression ahead, but Zhang Cheng couldn't see anything worth noting there.

“Is there anything there?”

"That's... the camp of those drug dealers!" Nan Xiang recognized it. She couldn't help but recognize it. She had escaped from here before. "It's that!"

The two of them took small steps and approached the camp little by little.

The camp was already empty. There were only some traces that proved that someone had camped here recently. Some hoof prints and feces on the side proved that these people were carrying a certain number of mules, horses or yaks. A large fire pool indicated that the team had a large number of people, about five or six people. There were some other abandoned items at the scene, but they were all garbage.

They found a broken and messy camouflage snow lichen in the snow. Nan Xiang picked it up, but found that it had been scratched viciously by the knife, so that it became one by one and could no longer be worn.

"Is this?" Zhang Cheng felt a little strange.

"I used this coat to disguise," Nanxiang replied. She successfully escaped, but the clothes became the object of venting. She walked around the camp and pointed in one direction. "They went there."

"Where?" Zhang Cheng was a little confused. But he immediately realized that not everyone could walk straight lines like himself. If you really walk in such a team of people in this kind of unmanned land, you must choose some routes that would rather be twisted than have a flat and safe road. He did not have any trouble with loads, nor was he afraid of any unfavorable terrain. But others were different.

"Who are they?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"In recent years, the poppy cultivation area in this country has soared," said Nan Xiang. "Many warlords or bandits, as well as foreign forces such as the United States, dream of importing these harmful things into our country. We have obtained accurate information and someone has organized a team to try to use the autumn and winter season to smuggle these things into our country."

"This is very dangerous." Zhang Cheng couldn't help but think of a record. This unmanned land has actually been a section of the Silk Road since ancient times, but unfortunately it is only three months for safe passage in a year. If you want to travel here in autumn and winter, you have to take great risks. Of course, this is for ordinary people, such as Master Lu, it doesn't matter. All natural risks cannot stop Master Lu.

"Yes, this season is dangerous. But it is said that they have found a relatively safe route. There is news that if this is successful, they will increase their investment and preparations. At that time, they will set up some mid-way supplies points to reduce the risks along the way to an acceptable range. If it is really successful, they can input several tons of high-purity products every time." Speaking of this, Nan Xiang was both angry and helpless. There are too many people who want money but don't live, not to mention that there are some hateful gangs in China who actually want to respond in the middle. "The superior sent us to try to figure out the course of action of these guys."

As long as you figure out the route, it will be easy whether it is intercepting or chasing. But unfortunately, she was touched by these guys. These guys are not simple, they are definitely trained and have professional tools. Especially those guys who lead the way, they are even more amazing. She was actually attacked without any precautions.

Then, she was disarmed and captured without resistance. Although she finally escaped, it was more of a suicide than a escaping. This is why the other party was too lazy to chase after him. Being single without equipment in this area is equivalent to suicide.

But now it’s different. With this practitioner... Although Nan Xiang is not sure whether this practitioner can deal with those bandits, she is still very sure.

Zhang Cheng did not react at all. Nan Xiang then remembered that the other party did not admit that he was a citizen of the Republic. Since this is the case, there is really no way to talk about what "serving the country" and "citizen obligations" and so on. At least on the surface, the two parties were a chance encounter. He could save her life, but there was no reason to help her deal with drug dealers.

The cold wind blew in her ears, and a few snowflakes fell on her hair and melted into water droplets.

"You use a sword?" she asked. Not to mention modern times, this kind of ancient sword was eliminated in the era of cold weapons.

"yes."

"I know if the sword is out of date." Not to mention this kind of ancient sword, it even has the structure of the handguard. Nan Xiang said. "Now there are much more useful weapons. The hot weapons are there, those guys." She tried her best to arouse the other party's interest. Generally speaking, this kind of practitioner is antique. They know very little about the outside world because they never mingle in human society. She has reason to think so, because the other party's clothes...apart from the fur coat, they are actually ancient styles that have long been lost and declined. Modern people have not worn this way. "This is the case," she compared the action with her hands. "Do you want it?"

Zhang Cheng did not answer. In fact, his attention was on another aspect at this moment: just now, when he was grabbing the cloak, he unexpectedly encountered a hard thing. He turned his head and looked carefully and found that there was a pocket on the cloak. And there was a hard object in the pocket.

He said that he had been wearing his cloak for a long time, but he didn't find a pocket. In his pocket was a gold ring. In other words, at least in terms of color, it looked like a snake in a circle. If you look closely, the golden appearance had exquisite scales that were known as the craftsmanship, and the end was connected with snake heads and snake tails, but the snake head turned outward and turned into a round and flat micro-convex ornament, and the snake tail dripped a quarter circle around the head of the snake, just below the pair of snakes. If you look carefully, some faint red lines were sprayed out from the mouth. When it touched the skin, it showed an abnormal heat. It was not hot, but could also be clearly felt.

Because he was attracted by the ring he suddenly discovered, Zhang Cheng didn't hear clearly what Nan Xiang was saying. He just responded casually with the meaning of "um" and "um".

"They probably left here in the morning, and it won't last more than five hours at this moment." Nan Xiang said.

"What did you say?" Zhang Cheng took his attention away from the ring.

"They haven't gone far yet." Nan Xiang said. She felt that her description of the gun might have aroused the curiosity of this practitioner. After all, this is a weapon from two eras. No matter how good this ancient sword is, as long as it cannot fly, it will be impossible for a gun to be useful. Unless this is a sword immortal who can fly the sword to take the head of a person. "You have the ability to search the surroundings, right?"

"Yes." Although Zhang Cheng didn't understand what was said before, he at least heard the last sentence "They haven't gone far yet." So he answered like this.

Nan Xiang widened her eyes, trying to see what methods the practitioners would use, but she saw Zhang Cheng take out the drone from his dimensional pocket.

After the last time he used the drone, he did not take it back into the card, but instead put it in the dimensional pocket as a casual item.

Nan Xiang widened her eyes and grabbed Zhang Cheng's sleeve from behind as she put the drone on the ground and was about to let it take off.

"How did you...how did you have this?" She widened her eyes. The plane had the logo brand mark on it. This is definitely a drone made in China.

"Of course I bought it." Zhang Cheng replied. "It's very expensive." This is also one of the most expensive items.

The drone flew up and began to search around from the perspective of the Eye of the Sky. However, it turned out that I was thinking too much. I couldn't see anything moving within a few kilometers.

After looking at it for a long time, Zhang Cheng took it back and put it back in his pocket.

"Aren't you a savage?" Nan Xiang asked suddenly.

"You are the savage!"

"Then why... dress like this?"

"I like it, can't it be?" He was mainly too lazy to change it. Anyway, the original plan here was a trip to the no-man's land, so it doesn't matter what kind of clothes he wears. But Zhang Cheng still thought about it. The main reason was that he had killed enough people this time and didn't want to kill people anymore. And speaking of it, he really didn't think that this route could be drug trafficking. The avalanche was the best proof before. If you were not a wizard, you would have been wiped out at any time. What's more, this time is not the worst season. Now it's just early winter, and by the middle of winter, this place can definitely be called a forbidden zone for life.
