Chapter 2140 Withered Forest
Soon, Lin Xiaofeng noticed a detail.
This group of cavalrymen on horseback almost touched each other with their bodies and horsebacks.
Lin Xiaofeng instantly understood that this was because the resistance of the wind was relatively small. He hurriedly imitated lying on the horse's back. Jing Shui next to him saw that he also followed the example of a cat and a tiger, lying on the horse's back.
Sure enough, the speed was a little faster, but it was still not enough.
This group of cavalry lay on the back of the horse and kicked the horse's belly hard, making them run faster. Lin Xiaofeng also pedaled, but the effect was not as good as this group of cavalry. Although the speed was faster than before,
But the speed of the group of cavalry was still approaching.
Strange.
Lin Xiaofeng looked sideways and observed. Suddenly, he finally noticed the biggest problem.
This group of cavalry, like them, were accompanied by two horses.
But on Lin Xiaofeng's side, after he kicked the horse under him, the horse under him did speed up, but the horse next to him didn't seem to speed up.
Instead, it looked like it was dragging the horse next to it.
However, although the cavalry behind them were carrying a horse, they did not hold the reins. The horse next to them was running closely with the horse they sat on.
In this way, he will naturally run much faster than them.
What the hell.
When Lin Xiaofeng saw it, he suddenly understood.
He thought for a moment, and then simply threw away the reins in his hands. But after throwing away the reins, the horse next to him ran away in the distance.
"I'm sorry."
Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but curse.
Only then did he realize that the horses carried by the cavalry behind them had been specially trained. Even if they did not hold the reins, these horses would still run behind them.
But the horses that Lin Xiaofeng and the others drove had never received such professional training, or in other words, these horses didn't seem to recognize the two of them as their masters at all.
But after the horse ran away, the horse he was driving finally started galloping.
"Xiao Feng." Jing Shui saw him, frowned and asked, "Should I also abandon this horse?"
"Throw it away." Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath: "It is better to have no replacement horse than to be overtaken by these cavalry."
Jing Shui threw away the reins without hesitation.
The speed of the two men suddenly increased, and their speed was much faster than that of the cavalry behind them.
These cavalrymen all carried various weapons and were very heavy, but Lin Xiaofeng and Jingshui went into battle lightly.
The distance is finally getting farther and farther.
Soon, these cavalry were finally pulled away.
There was no trace in the distance.
Lin Xiaofeng took out the map of the Dark Abyss and looked at the landscape of the Black Grass Plain.
I started thinking about how to get rid of these cavalry.
At this time, although there is no trace, there is a difference between the black grass plain and the endless desert.
In the endless desert, if you get rid of these cavalry, the ground will be covered with yellow sand, and the horse's hooves will disappear when the wind blows.
But on the black grass plain, the horseshoes would become marks, causing the cavalry behind them to follow them closely.
At this point, I had been running for two hours.
"There is a small town ahead. After replenishing supplies there, we will circle back to Jiangnan City from a dead forest here," Lin Xiaofeng said.
This dry forest is not suitable for large-scale cavalry pursuit.
At this time, their horses had been running continuously, and there were even signs of foaming at the mouth.
If it continues, these two horses may run to death.
This is also the biggest problem with not replacing horses.
Otherwise, they could rush into the dead forest in one go.
This town is the territory of a kobold. At this time, after the two arrived, they quickly fed the horse some horse feed, then rode on horseback and left the town in an emergency.
After the two left, within about ten minutes, a large number of cavalry arrived.
These cavalry did not leave directly. Instead, they left 300 people laughing and searching, while the other 700 people continued to pursue.
They were worried that Lin Xiaofeng would hide here and drive the horses away to lure them away.
This withered forest is also quite famous in the dark abyss, called the withered forest.
It is said that this withered forest used to be a very lush place, and there are even legends that there was a mysterious palace inside.
Many people went to this forest to look for the palace, but there was no trace of it.
Then suddenly one day, the trees in the entire forest began to wither, and the place that was once full of life turned into the desolate place it is now.
In the withered forest, there is no green at all, all are yellow withered tree trunks, but these tree trunks are basically twenty or thirty meters high.
Just from this, you can imagine how dense the woods used to be here.
After Lin Xiaofeng and Jingshui rushed in, their speed slowed down. The horses could not sprint in a place full of trees and could only walk slowly.
But so did the cavalry.
Walking like this can also allow the sitting horse to have a good rest.
"This place used to be a nice place." Jingshui looked around: "I don't know why it turned into a desolate place."
"I don't know, and I haven't heard of anything here. Let's keep walking. We will pass through the woods and we will soon reach the old site of Jiangnan City." Lin Xiaofeng rode his horse, looking back from time to time, worried about the cavalry.
Come after him.
At this time, more than 700 cavalrymen stopped outside the withered forest and did not enter.
A demon general who looked like a cavalry leader frowned at the forest in front of him.
At this time, an adjutant came to him: "Sir, they have entered the cursed land, should we retreat?"
The demon general took a deep breath and said, "Take five hundred people in to search, and I will meet you outside."
"this."
The adjutant's face turned ugly. Only a few people in their demon clan knew the legends in this cursed land. Even the adjutant's level was not enough.
He was once beside the drunken city lord and heard the city lord drunkenly talk about what happened here.
Thinking about the rumors here, the adjutant's back suddenly felt a little cold.
"What?" The general glared at the adjutant: "Aren't you going?"
"I obey." The adjutant agreed bravely.
At this time, when marching and fighting, anyone who disobeys the superior's orders will be killed on the spot.
After entering this cursed place, although it may be difficult to leave alive, it is better than being killed on the spot here.
The other cavalrymen didn't know the legend inside.
The adjutant loudly named a group of people, then followed them in with a sad face.
