Legendary Beastmaster Zhang Deshuai

Chapter 75 Escorting the Caravan

Time passes quietly like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, a month is about to come.

On the eve of the upcoming battle, Zhang Deshuai and others came to the mercenary inn early to gather. Each of them had excitement and anticipation on their faces, as if they were about to embark on a great journey. Several people had already finished their supplies, and all kinds of supplies were neatly piled aside, just waiting for the arrival of the caravan.

On the first day of the caravan's arrival, the manager of the caravan came to Liya with an old but detailed map. Liya took the map solemnly, her eyes focused and sharp, as if she wanted to see all the mysteries from the map. Then, she sat down with a few people to discuss the map.

Liya pointed at the map and gently outlined five dangerous areas on the route map with her fingers. The first one, she called it "Black Wind Canyon", is said to have howling winds, like a black whirlwind that can sweep people into it; the second one is "Misty Forest", which is shrouded in mist all year round, making it easy for people to lose their way; the third one is called "Snake Swamp", as the name suggests, it is full of various poisonous snakes, and one can fall into fatal danger if not careful; the fourth one is "Rough Rocks", which is full of rugged rocks and is extremely difficult to walk; the fifth one is "Ghost Valley", it is rumored that there are often strange sounds and phantoms in the valley, which is creepy.

They carefully studied the five dangerous areas and discussed strategies and methods to deal with them. Everyone actively expressed their opinions and suggestions, striving to be able to deal with danger calmly. The journey to Xingyao Imperial Capital actually took more than three months, which was undoubtedly a huge test of their endurance and perseverance. But they were not afraid, and their hearts were full of confidence and courage for the future.

In the following days, they repeatedly studied the map, perfected the plan, and also took the last time to rest and train, so as to make the best preparations for the upcoming long journey. They knew that what awaited them ahead was not only danger, but also endless opportunities and challenges, and they were ready to meet everything.

Soon, Zhang Deshuai, Liya, Lisi, Anthony and Wang Wei arrived at the place where the caravan was stationed. This place was located on the border between the Bingpo Empire and the Xingyao Empire. From the piles of goods, it was obvious that this batch of goods was transported from the Bingpo Empire to the Xingyao Empire.

At first glance, the caravan was extremely large, with trucks neatly arranged, as if there was no end in sight. The goods were piled up on the trucks, forming small hills. The Sacre dragons responsible for pulling the goods were even more amazing. These Sacre dragons were as big as hills, and their sturdy limbs were like huge stone pillars, steadily supporting their heavy bodies. Each Sacre dragon was more than dozens of meters long, and its huge body was covered with a thick layer of keratin, flashing a tough light. Their heads were huge and majestic, and their eyes revealed a gentle but ancient wisdom.

There were more than ten of these Sacre Dragons, each pulling an extremely large truck filled with all kinds of goods. When they moved, the ground seemed to tremble slightly, making a dull sound.

After Liya finished talking with the old man in charge, she signaled to the four people to prepare to set off. Anthony, holding a short sword, swiftly jumped to the front to explore the way. His eyes were sharp and he was vigilantly observing everything around him. Liz stood aside, concentrating on being on guard, holding a bow and arrow in her hand, ready to respond to any emergency. Liya stood at the front of the caravan heroically, leading the team forward. Her figure looked particularly petite but full of power against the background of Sacrelong. Zhang Deshuai was in the middle of the caravan, calmly paying attention to the movements around him, his heart full of a sense of mission. Wang Wei stood at the back of the team, carrying a big sword, like a solid fortress.

In this way, the huge caravan began to move slowly like a winding python. The Sacre Dragons took heavy and powerful steps, and the wheels of the trucks squeaked and turned, making a dull sound. The caravan, carrying a lot of goods, carrying everyone's expectations and dreams, slowly moved towards the Star Empire, leaving a long mark on this vast land.

Nothing special happened along the way, but the convoy moved very slowly, just like a snail crawling forward. Time passed by little by little, and three days passed in a flash.

Liya looked at the road ahead and said solemnly: "After passing here, we will reach the first dangerous place tomorrow - Black Wind Canyon." When everyone heard her words, they couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

The name of the Black Wind Canyon is enough to scare people. It is said that it is shrouded in strange black fog all year round, as if it is the mouth of a demon, ready to devour any life that enters it. The cliffs on both sides of the canyon are towering into the sky, as steep and rugged as if they were split by a giant axe, and the rocks on them are like hideous and twisted ghost faces.

When the wind blows through the Black Wind Canyon, it makes a series of creepy whistling sounds, which seem to be the wailing and curses of countless vengeful spirits, making people's souls tremble. There are also some strange flashes and strange sounds that often appear in the canyon, as if some evil being is lurking in it.

It is said that many brave adventurers have entered the canyon, but never came out again. They were swallowed up by the endless darkness and disappeared without a trace. Some people say that ghosts can be seen in the Black Wind Canyon. They suddenly appear in the darkness and then disappear in an instant, making it difficult to predict. There are also rumors that there is a terrible dark force in the canyon that can corrode people's minds and make them fall into madness and despair.

Thinking that they were about to face such a horrifying place, everyone's faces became extremely serious. They clenched their weapons, and secretly vowed in their hearts that they must carefully pass through this first dangerous place and never let themselves become another victim of the Black Wind Canyon.

The crowd and the caravan slowly arrived at the entrance of the Black Wind Canyon, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became depressing and dull.

Liya shouted loudly: "Let's rest for a night and set off tomorrow!" Everyone stopped and began to set up camp.

Zhang Deshuai stared at the Black Wind Canyon in front of him, and an indescribable fear surged in his heart. The Black Wind Canyon was like a huge monster awakened from the ancient times. The gaping black hole seemed like an endless abyss, greedily waiting for everyone to walk into its bloody mouth and then devour them mercilessly.

From time to time, cold winds blew out of the canyon, and there seemed to be some faint howling in the wind, as if the souls of those who had been buried here were crying unwillingly. The sound of the wind was like the screams of evil spirits, piercing the eardrums and making people's scalps numb. The cliffs on both sides of the canyon were as black as ink, and were covered with deep scratches, as if they were the traces left by the battles between this ancient monster and other powerful beings. Those scratches looked particularly hideous in the dim light, as if people could see the fierce battle scenes of the past.

Occasionally, black mist gushed out of the canyon and spread rapidly, making people feel as if they were in a dark hell. There seemed to be countless evil eyes hidden in the mist, watching everyone, ready to launch a deadly attack at any time. In the depths of the canyon, some flickering lights could be vaguely seen, and it was unknown whether it was a strange flame or some mysterious energy fluctuation, which made people feel that there were endless dangers and secrets hidden there.

As night fell, there was a dead silence all around, except for the strange noises coming from the Black Wind Canyon from time to time, which made it impossible for people to sleep peacefully. Everyone held their weapons tightly, their hearts filled with tension and anxiety, knowing that tomorrow would be a difficult and dangerous challenge for them.
