Seven Gods Guardian: Gun King Mission

Chapter 356 Arriving in the Town

He didn't think about anything, just closed his eyes and let his body relax completely, and then as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, he fell asleep.

Qingluo was also exhausted. She didn't even care about the dust and dirt on the ground and just lay down.

Her body was pressed tightly against Wang Zhan, as if this could give her some warmth and comfort.

Although nothing dangerous happened that night, it was a rare moment of peace for Wang Zhan and Qing Luo.

This time their luck seemed to be good and nothing special happened outside.

Time passed quickly, and the night passed peacefully. The sky gradually turned pale, and the weather began to brighten.

Wang Zhan slowly woke up. He blinked, adjusted to the light, and then turned to look at Qingluo beside him.

I saw Qingluo still with her eyes closed, immersed in a sweet dream. Her face looked particularly peaceful in the morning sun, like a sleeping fairy.

Wang Zhan moved carefully, afraid of waking Qingluo up.

He stood up quietly, stretched his muscles, and felt a little stiff.

At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly, secretly worrying in his heart: "How long will it take to get back to Huangyun City?"

At this moment, Qingluo slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze met Wang Zhan's and she gave a faint smile.

Qingluo rubbed her eyes, sat up, and asked, "Where are we going today?"

Wang Zhan quickly took out the map from his bag, unfolded it and looked at it carefully.

Looking at the markings and route on the map, he pondered for a moment, then said, "Judging from the distance on the map, this place is at least 100 kilometers away from Huangyun City. Yesterday, we drove the carriage from the valley to here, and the carriage traveled at least 20 kilometers."

After hearing this, Qingluo frowned slightly and said worriedly, "It's still so far away. How long will it take to get there?"

Wang Zhan comforted him, "Don't worry, as long as nothing unexpected happens, we'll be back to Huangyun City in just one more day."

"By the way, what about those wolf monsters we encountered yesterday? How could there be wolf monsters in that place?" Qingluo suddenly remembered the experience last night and said with lingering fear.

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Zhan frowned tightly, obviously thinking about this problem as well.

After a while, he slowly spoke, "I think these wolf demons are probably the pets of that evil old man. Although they are numerous, they don't seem to have any tacit understanding or coordination with each other. Otherwise, given our situation last night, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to escape at all."

Wang Zhan's words made Qingluo suddenly realize something. She couldn't help but sigh, "So that's how it is. After that evil old man died, these wolf demons must have sensed their master's passing. That's why they took advantage of the moonlight to eliminate us and avenge their master. Unfortunately, their plan ultimately failed."

Wang Zhan nodded and continued, "That's right, but we are safe now, and we have obtained all of Elder Xie Nong's belongings. The food and money in the carriage are enough to last us for a while, so it can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Hearing Wang Zhan's words, Qingluo also smiled. She thought of the pile of treasures in the carriage, and her mood suddenly became much lighter.

"Okay, let's set off quickly. The map shows that there is a town not far away. We can go there and find an inn, change clothes, take a shower, and have something to eat." Wang Zhan said quickly, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Seeing this, Qingluo didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded silently to show her agreement.

She quickly picked up the clothes on the ground with Wang Zhan and put them back on the carriage.

After everything was ready, the two of them got on the carriage together, ate some simple dry food, and prepared to leave.

Wang Zhan sat in the driver's seat, gripping the reins tightly. He thought to himself, "Given my current strength, I'm afraid I'll need a few more days of rest to fully recover. My injuries are truly too severe, and this has had a significant impact on me."

He couldn't help but think that since coming to the other world, he seemed to have never truly recovered his full strength.

Every time he faced various battles with such a weak body, his strength recovery speed was extremely slow.

Especially the fierce battle with the Wolf Demon King yesterday, which exhausted his remaining strength.

"This is so annoying!" Wang Zhan couldn't help but complain in his heart, "If this goes on, when will I be able to recover to my best condition?"

He shook his head helplessly and continued driving the carriage forward, but his heart was always shrouded in worry.

At this time, Wang Zhan was sitting steadily in the driver's seat of the carriage, holding the reins tightly in his hands, not knowing how long he had been traveling.

Fortunately, he did not encounter anything special along the way. Only the horse was moving forward slowly under his control.

Gradually, a vague outline rose on the distant horizon, which was the shadow of the town.

As the distance got closer, Wang Zhan's vision became clearer and clearer, and he was finally able to see the specific appearance of the town.

The small town looked quite lively. Although the war between humans and demons had broken out, the people here did not seem to be greatly affected and still lived a peaceful life.

There are a wide variety of shops on both sides of the street, and various signs and flags fluttering in the wind are dazzling.

People come and go, some are in a hurry, some are leisurely, and everyone has his or her own things to do.

Wang Zhan and Qing Luo drove the carriage slowly into the town, and the sound of horse hooves made crisp sounds on the road.

The street was not wide, so Wang Zhan had to drive the carriage carefully to avoid hitting pedestrians.

However, these pedestrians seemed to be busy with their own things and did not pay much attention to Wang Zhan's carriage.

"We've finally arrived at the town. I hope there won't be any accidents here." Wang Zhan looked at the lively scene in front of him and prayed silently in his heart.

While holding the reins to slow the horse down, he looked around, looking for a place to eat and rest.

Not long after, Wang Zhan's attention was attracted by an inn.

Although the sign of this inn is a little faded, one can still imagine its former glory from the exquisite carvings and the remaining gold paint.

Wang Zhan pulled the reins and stopped the carriage steadily in front of the inn.

He jumped out of the carriage lightly and stretched his body which was a little stiff from driving for a long time.

Qingluo also got out of the car. Her bright eyes looked around curiously, especially the inn in front of her.

At this moment, the door of the inn was pushed open with a creaky sound, and a waiter in a blue cloth shirt walked out.

He immediately spotted Wang Zhan and Qing Luo standing at the door, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He then stepped forward with a smile on his face and greeted them warmly, "Sir, are you here for a quick meal or to stay overnight?"

Wang Zhan smiled and nodded, then replied, "Let's stay in the hotel first, and then get us some food."

The waiter quickly responded, "Okay, sir, don't worry, the food in our restaurant is absolutely delicious and I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

After saying that, he turned around and called a few helpers, pulled the carriage to the backyard and placed it properly, then led Wang Zhan and Qingluo into the inn.

Although the interior decoration of the inn is a bit old, it is very clean and tidy.

The waiter led them across the lobby and sat them down at a window seat.

This location has a wide view and you can see pedestrians coming and going on the street.
