Chapter 114: The Heroine Ye Lan
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei immediately became alert.
Soon, a group of people riding on horses appeared in their sight. Leading them was a heroic woman wearing a red dress and a long sword at her waist.
The woman looked at Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei in a state of disarray and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Shen Mo stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "We encountered many dangers while searching for the fragments of time, and accidentally got lost in this forest."
The woman raised her eyebrows slightly: "Time fragment? That's a legendary treasure."
Lin Yuwei hurriedly explained: "We have an important mission and must find the fragments of time to save the world."
The woman hesitated for a moment and said, "You don't seem like liars. I can take you out of this forest, but you have to tell me more about the time fragments."
Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei looked at each other and nodded.
Led by the woman, they walked out of the forest.
"Thank you for your help, young lady." Shen Mo said.
The woman smiled and said, "My name is Ye Lan, and I'm a chivalrous woman from around here. I'm also quite interested in the time fragments, so I wonder if I can go with you guys?"
Shen Mo hesitated for a moment, and Lin Yuwei said, "One more person means more strength. As long as Miss Ye is sincere in helping us, we welcome her."
So the three of them set out together.
Along the way, Ye Lan demonstrated his superb martial arts and extraordinary wisdom, and provided a lot of help to Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei.
However, their whereabouts were tracked by a mysterious organization.
One night, they rested in an inn. Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei fell asleep quickly because of the days of running around.
Ye Lan didn't feel sleepy at all. She always felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around her.
Suddenly, there was a slight noise outside the window. Ye Lan quietly got up and hid behind the door.
I saw several dark shadows climbing in through the window and walking towards Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei's room.
Ye Lan drew his sword and shouted, "Stop!"
The dark shadows were startled and turned to attack Ye Lan.
Ye Lan was not afraid at all and started a fierce battle with the dark shadows.
The sound of fighting woke up Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei, and they quickly joined the battle.
With the combined efforts of the three, the black shadows were gradually defeated and fled one after another.
"Who are these people?" Lin Yuwei asked.
Ye Lan frowned: "I don't know, but they are definitely coming for the time fragments."
Shen Mo said: "It seems we have to be more careful."
The next day, they continued on their journey.
In order to avoid possible danger, they chose a remote path.
But the path was rugged and difficult to travel on, and the weather was hot, so their progress became very slow.
"This is not a solution. We have to find a place to replenish water." Ye Lan said.
Finally, they found a small village.
When I walked into the village, I found it unusually quiet and there was no one around.
"Something's wrong, everyone be careful." Shen Mo said.
At this moment, many villagers armed with weapons suddenly appeared and surrounded them.
"Who are you? Why did you break into our village?" an elderly villager shouted.
Shen Mo quickly explained: "We are just passing by and want to find some water to drink."
The villagers didn't believe it and still held their weapons tightly.
Ye Lan said: "We really have no ill intentions. If you don't believe us, you can search our bags."
After some explanation, the villagers finally let down their guard.
“There have been some strange people hanging around recently, so we have to be careful,” said an older villager.
Shen Mo's mind was stirred: "Could they be in the same group as those who are chasing us?"
Just then, a child ran over and shouted, "Grandpa, there is another group of people coming from outside the village!"
Shen Mo and the others' faces changed, and they immediately walked out of the village...
