C704 Saving People
This was because the Middle Domain was different from the other Western Regions or Devil Domain. It was covered by a huge natural formation. With this protection barrier, any expert who wanted to go in would have to walk in.
Therefore, Lu Feng could only walk to the Middle Domain. As for the location of the Middle Domain, he had already found out about it.
When Lu Feng carefully walked through this huge swamp, not far away from him, a man and a woman encountered danger.
The man's lower body was stuck in the swamp and could not be pulled out. The other woman did not have anything to grab him, so she could only stand there and worry.
"Don't come over, otherwise you will also fall into it!" When the woman tried to get closer and pull the other party with the sword sheath in her hand, the man who was trapped in the swamp quickly scolded.
"It's fine. My body is very light, so it should be fine if I get closer. Don't speak, or else I'll be easily distracted!" The woman let out a breath and continued to move slowly.
"Don't come over, don't come over. Listen to me!" The man saw the woman slowly moving towards him, so he hurriedly shouted.
But no matter what he said, the woman still slowly walked over, and at this time, the soil under her feet became softer and softer.
"Come, grab the scabbard, I'll pull you up!" When the woman walked about a meter or so, she estimated the distance and then stretched out the scabbard in her hand.
"No, the soil under your feet doesn't eat strength. If I pull you up, you'll definitely sink in!" Although the scabbard was in front of him, the man didn't pull it.
It was better for one person to die than two people to die. Although no one wanted to die, if one had to die now, that man naturally didn't want to implicate others.
"It's fine. Once you grab the sword sheath, I'll immediately retreat. I should be able to pull you out!" The woman replied.
Although the man didn't quite believe this, the soil had already reached his waist. If this continued, he might not be able to escape death.
"Be careful!"
After thinking for a moment, the man gripped the sword sheath with his right hand. He knew that there was only one chance. After all, the more the mud struggled, the faster it sank. If he failed once, he would sink in less than a minute.
"Get ready!"
Seeing the man grab the sword sheath, the woman shouted. Immediately, a powerful Spiritual Energy Fluctuations burst out.
"Ah!"
But in the next second, following the woman's loud cry, her body quickly sank into the soil.
Although the woman did not sink just now, it was because a layer of soil above the quagmire had been dried up by the wind. That was why it was relatively hard. However, when she unleashed the Spiritual Energy and shattered the layer of soil under her feet, the soil below could not withstand her weight at all.
"Little Qing, I'm sorry, I'm the one who implicated you!" When the man saw that both of them were trapped, his face was immediately filled with regret.
Originally, he only needed to kill one person, but now, both of them were finished.
"Chi Yang, don't say that. I was the one who volunteered to save you. We agreed to go to Middle Domain together. How can I leave you behind?" The girl called Little Qing said with a smile.
Although she was about to die, she still had a smile on her face, as if she didn't care about death at all.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't let you die. Let's shout, perhaps someone will pass by!" Lu Chiyang said.
After saying that, he started to shout loudly. It was the kind of shout that he would risk his life for.
"Chi Yang, stop shouting. This swamp is a shortcut to the Middle Domain, but it's not the only way. I don't think anyone will take this risk like us!" Liu Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Although they knew that this swamp was dangerous, to Liu Qing and Lu Chiyang, they had never seen the swamp with their own eyes, so they had no common sense. They entered the swamp without any preparation.
Otherwise, even if there was a rope, those two wouldn't have fallen to such a state.
"No, we must. Even if there's still one breath left, we can't give up!" Lu Chiyang said, then once again shouted at the top of his lungs.
And in order to make his voice travel further, he even used the Spiritual Energy.
"Roar! Roar!"
But after a few roars, beast roars immediately sounded out.
"Are you crazy? You're using the Spiritual Energy to shout! That's not pulling the Demonic Beast over!" Liu Qing's expression changed when he heard the roars of the beasts.
Don't wait for the rescue to come. Instead, a few man-eating Demonic Beast would appear. At that time, the two of them would have no chance of survival.
"Little Qing, even if we lure the Demonic Beast over, we still have a chance of survival!" Unlike Liu Qing, Lu Chiyang felt that no matter what he lured over, it was still a hope.
Just like that, even though there were roars of beasts coming from all directions, Lu Chiyang still continued to shout.
...
"Why are there so many roars of beasts?"
Lu Feng, who was rushing carefully, heard many beast roars in the wind. He was slightly stunned. After all, it was not dark at the moment, so there shouldn't be so many beast roars for no reason.
"Help, help!"
However, just as Lu Feng was about to move in another direction, he suddenly heard human cries for help amidst the many beast roars.
"Is someone calling for help?"
Lu Feng muttered. Due to the sound of the wind and the roars of beasts, Lu Feng could not hear them clearly.
However, Lu Feng was not an ordinary person. When he carefully recognized the noise, he was sure that someone was calling for help.
"There are other people in this place as well. Could it be that they are also going to Middle Domain like me?" Lu Feng thought to himself.
After all, this was the wilderness, so even if there were people asking for help, it might be fake, because it might be a trap set by someone.
But if it was true, saving a person's life could be considered as accumulating virtue for himself.
"Let's go and take a look first!"
Lu Feng hesitated for a moment. In the end, he was defeated by the sense of justice in his heart. If someone really asked for help, then he naturally could not leave them to die.
Of course, saving them to die was within the scope of Lu Feng's ability. It was beyond his scope of ability. This was not to say that he did not save them to die.
It was also because of this that Lu Feng slightly sped up his pace. However, this was a swamp after all, so for safety reasons, his speed was naturally not that fast.
If he stepped into the swamp, he was afraid that he would have to call for help himself.
"The soil here is starting to soften!"
After walking for a while, Lu Feng found that the soil under his feet had started to sink, because the footprints he stepped on were getting deeper and deeper.
Through his understanding of the soil, Lu Feng believed that the calling for help was coming closer and closer. If he did not guess wrong, the owner of the call for help must have been trapped in the mud.
If he did not save him, the end result would be that he would be swallowed by the mud and buried alive by the soil.
Just like that, because the soil started to soften, Lu Feng's speed became slower and slower.
When Lu Feng headed in the direction of the cry for help, Lu Chiyang and Liu Qing had already been buried in the soil. If they continued to sink at this speed, they would be swallowed by the soil in a few minutes.
Although Trainer would not die immediately after being buried alive, once he was swallowed by the soil, even if he wanted to save him, he would not be able to do anything. Therefore, he would still die in the end.
"Chi Yang, stop shouting. It seems like the two of us will have to stay here!" Seeing that the soil was about to reach his neck, a look of despair appeared in Liu Qing's eyes.
"I will not give up until the last moment!" Lu Chiyang said in a deep voice.
"You are right. Don't give up until the last moment. Because a miracle might happen in the next second!" At this moment, a voice was heard, and then a rope fell from the sky and landed between the two of them.
"Little Qing, quickly grab the rope!"
Seeing the rope falling from the sky, Lu Chiyang's eyes lit up with hope.
However, because there were too many weeds around, the two of them couldn't see who was trying to save him.
However, at this point, no matter who saved them, they had to grab the rope beside them.
Because only if people were alive would there be hope.
So in the next second, the two of them pulled their hands out of the mud and directly grabbed the rope.
And because of their struggle, the dirt that originally had not reached their chests suddenly reached their necks.
Seeing that he was about to be submerged, Lu Chiyang hurriedly pulled the rope to signal the rescue team to quickly pull them out.
"Hold on tight!"
When a sound was heard, the rope tightened in the next second, and then the two people who were stuck in the mud slowly walked out.
"Hoo hoo!"
In less than a minute, the two mud men left the mud. They sat on the ground, gasping for air.
They were so close to losing their lives, so their hearts were beating fast, as if they were going to jump out of their bodies.
"Benefactor, thank you for saving my life!"
After catching his breath, Lu Chiyang pulled Liu Qing and knelt down on the ground.
"No need for formalities. It was just a piece of cake for me. To be honest, it was just a piece of cake for me. Why didn't you prepare a rope when you came to such a place? Fortunately, you met me. Otherwise, you would have been drowned by the quagmire by now! " Lu Feng looked at the sword sheath in the woman's left hand and said helplessly.
Although he didn't see what had happened, he could guess what had happened between the two of them just by looking at the sword sheath.
When they heard what Lu Feng said, Liu Qing and Lu Chiyang's faces immediately turned red because they didn't know what to prepare for entering the swamp!
