The Sword God of the South

The Sword God of the South
The Devil Swamp I



For a moment, Zhang Fei was still standing in his place. He didn't take any action. Not moving even a little.


For some reason, his heart suddenly hesitated. His mind was imagining terrible things.


'It seems that now is not the right time to go in there, ' his mind said as it watched the situation.


Meanwhile, the night is getting late. A little more the moon will come overhead. The sound of the howls of dogs and wolves rang out loud in the distance. This added to the awesomeness that came from the forest in front of him.


"Ah, stop. It's better tomorrow I go in there" he murmured.


Zhang Fei decided not to enter the forest. His heart was doubtful now. Not as steady as before.


Not because he was afraid of facing the enemy. Not because of fear of death.


Death is a certain thing that will befall every living creature. He can come anytime. Ready not to be ready, when the time has come, anyone will not be able to avoid death.


At all times, Zhang Fei always gave up his life to the heavens. So why is he still afraid of death?


Only, he did not want to die before all his tasks were completed. That was why every time he did something, Zhang Fei would definitely always act very carefully. Everything he did was always based on firm intention and full conviction.


For him, all of that was the most important capital.


But now, all those main capital just vanished. So of course he did not want to do his act.


Zhang Fei finally let out a long and heavy sigh. He walked closer to a large tree. Looking up, the tree had a lot of branches.


"I'd better just sleep here" he said slowly as he climbed to the top.


After finding a safe place to rest, without lingering any longer he instantly closed his two eyes.


That night Zhang Fei fell asleep very fast. He woke up after his face was exposed to the morning sun.


"The cloudy morning. It looks like it's going to rain today" he said as he looked up at the sky.


At that time the weather was a little cloudy. In the sky were many wisps of black clouds that were carried slowly by the gusts of wind.


But even so, it was not an obstacle for Zhang Fei to continue his determination. Now that his body was feeling fresher, his spirit was flaring up and his confidence had returned.


He is currently standing facing the forest. Zhang Fei let out a long breath so that his body was calmer.


When he finished, he immediately went in there with light steps.


Even in the morning, apparently the situation in the forest that he said was small still feels creepy. The awesomeness he felt last night, until now still not gone.


Zhang Fei began to walk through the forest. About ten minutes later, he had already made it through the middle of the forest.


The further inside, the more dense the bone-chilling cold. His breathing began to feel heavy, as if in the forest there was not much oxygen available.


But he did not stop. Zhang Fei kept stepping while raising his vigilance. Moments later, he suddenly smelled an unpleasant smell.


The smell was very pungent and resembled the smell of a carcass.


"Morning alone is this scary, especially if it's night," he said as he continued to step.


At that moment, it was sudden that his right foot stepped on something cold. It's chilly.


As soon as he looked down, to the place that was stepped on by his feet just now, it was apparently not solid ground. It was black mud mixed with water.


Zhang Fei was surprised. He had not been aware of what was in his realm just now. His pair of sharp eyes stared ahead.


"Ah, this is a swamp" he said aghastly.


It turns out that the swamp in front of him is not the same as the swamp in general. The swamp was filled with quite tall thatch grass and lotus flower plants that filled all its parts.


Under the swamp there was not only cold water. There is also black mud. After further observation, apparently the pungent smell earlier came from the mud!


"Is this what the Demon Swamp means?" Zhang Fei wondered to himself.


He's still confused. The letter written on the red cloth read Demon Swamp, Zhang Fei was sure, this is where Yin Yin is.


But why has he not found any signs of another human being? Was the author lying to him?


Amidst the confusion, Zhang Fei suddenly heard a human voice speaking. The sound was quite a lot, but it felt far away.


"Ah, it turns out to be true. Here there are other humans," he exclaimed with excitement.


Zhang Fei was sure, he had not heard wrong!


After finding a new clue, his spirit felt even more blazing. Moreover, the voices of the people who were talking were increasingly heard in his ears.


"I think the voice came from there," Zhang Fei muttered as he looked ahead. At the end of the swamp was a tall bamboo grove. Although he could not see any further, Zhang Fei was sure that his conjecture was not wrong.


Now, all he had to do was figure out how to cross the swamp.


Zhang Fei tried to find another way so as not to pass through the Demon Swamp. Unfortunately, he did not find it.


Inevitably, he had to go through danger!


Before going any further, it happened to be by his side that there was a piece of wood about three meters long. Zhang Fei took the wood and put it into the swamp. His intention to check how deep the swamp is.


"Oh, in this swamp once," he cried stifled.


The long wood came in all. Even Zhang Fei felt that he was lacking.


"If this is the story, how could I possibly cross this swamp?"


He returned confused. But Zhang Fei was not willing to give up so easily. Unknowingly he had expended the science of lightening the body and started to step into the swamp.


His pair of feet stepped on the lotus flower plant and the weeds grass. Zhang Fei was initially quite troubled, but after a while later, he got used to it.


Slowly he kept moving. Now he was in the middle of the swamp. Just wanting to go further, suddenly there was a rumbling sound coming from below.


The water mixed with black mud suddenly released quite a lot of bubbles. Not long after that, there were approximately ten large crocodiles that appeared simultaneously!


The herd of crocodiles attacked Zhang Fei compactly! They opened their mouths wide and showed extremely sharp canines.


It was fortunate that by then Zhang Fei was ready with all conditions. So that before the attack of ten crocodiles hit his body, he had already jumped backwards.
