Chapter 5 Escape from the Snow Mountain

The moon shadow is hazy, icy and snowy, and the sky is vast.

On the snowy Goosehead Mountain, a group of officers and soldiers surrounded a dilapidated temple. Inside the temple hall, several torches are shaking. Five or six people led two big wolf dogs, constantly sniffing and searching.

There were three people standing in the middle of the Buddhist hall, it was Zhao Lei, the head catcher of Wanghu County, and the two officials who escorted Lin Qi. Several people were very surprised when they looked at the current situation in the Buddha hall, only to see that the ground was cracked and sunken, and something was obviously pulled out of the eyes of the Buddha statue. There are also two missing floor tiles under the Buddha statue to expose a space, and there is a stone slab under the space, which must have hidden something and been taken away.

At this time, Zhao Lei squatted down and took a torch to shine on the cracked ground. Brushed up the black dust on the ground with his fingers, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it gently.

"Evil~vomit~" Zhao Lei smelled a foul smell that rushed to his nose, and he couldn't help retching vigorously a few times and almost vomited out.

"What the hell, how is this possible?" Zhao Lei stood up and said incredulously. As he spoke, he wiped the corners of Wang Er's clothes a few times. That's not all, he walked to the side and grabbed the thick snow on the ground, shook his hands and walked to Wang Da's side, and also wiped his hands dry with the corners of his clothes.

Wang Da Wang Er himself is a small official, and even when he enters the Buddha hall, he already faintly smells a little foul smell. I didn't dare to be displeased, although I was very resistant in my heart, I didn't dare to show the slightest anger.

"Zhao Tou, what is this?" Wang Da looked at Zhao Lei's face and asked carefully.

"Impossible! Unless that little beast got some treasure!, it is impossible to build a foundation breakthrough!" Zhao Lei said with some suspicion. The face is very bad.

"Zhao Tou, what do you mean ......" Wang Daben observed Zhao Lei's face, and when he heard what he said, he also faintly understood it, but he couldn't believe it, and couldn't help but only say half of it.

"The ground is full of impurities excreted from the little beast's body, and I'm afraid he's... There are signs of a return to basics. Zhao Lei's face was even more uncertain, and he was a little unsure to say his thoughts.

"What?" exclaimed in disbelief from Wang Dawang Er and even a few officials in the house.

"Zhao Tou, you mean... Say... That Lin Qi has been... Have you succeeded in building the foundation?" Wang Da stared at Zhao Lei nervously after saying this.

"That's right!" Zhao Lei nodded and said with certainty.

"Ahh The face was full of incredulity.

"Could it be that the little beast came here and had some kind of adventure, and what treasure was hidden in the dark compartment from the eyes of this Buddha statue?" Wang Da doubted. At the same time, his heart was beating at this idea, he also knew that the treasure that could make people build a foundation overnight was definitely a priceless thing, maybe Lin Qi got some kind of elixir of the living dead.

"Hmm!" Zhao Lei didn't say anything, just nodded and looked at Wang Da meaningfully. He was already greedy at this time, and he had the same idea as Wang Da.

"The fugitive Lin Qi is not here, Li Zhukuai, you go and pass on my order, let everyone look for clues in this vicinity! This little beast must not be allowed to escape! If you find any clues, report to me immediately! You all go down too! Wang Dawang Er and I will look for clues here!" Zhao Lei shouted and ordered down. A young man dressed as a catcher in the house immediately took the order and took the other two people in the house out.

"Wang Da, as long as you can catch Lin Qi this time. This head catcher will definitely intercede for the two of you in front of the adults, and try to protect the two of you!" Zhao Lei stared at Wang Da and said. There is still a lot of meaning in his eyes.

"Thank you Zhao Tou, thank you Zhao Tou! The small one must take Zhao Tou as the horse!" Wang Dayi heard Zhao Lei's words, and hurriedly pulled Wang Er together to thank him.

"What can be said and what can't be said, I guess you two also know, right? As for how to arrest Lin Qi, I don't want to hear anything unfavorable when I return to Wanghu County. Zhao Lei said some brainless words, and finally his tone became colder and colder.

"Yes, yes! Zhao Tou! The little one must be, and from now on, the two of them will all rely on the orders of adults. There are no two hearts!"

Wang Da is a smart person, so he naturally understands what Zhao Lei said, although he said it easily, in fact, he was so nervous that his legs couldn't help trembling.

Wang Er was a little stunned when he heard it, usually the eldest brother Wang Da dealt with people a lot. Even this official was helped by Wang Da, how could he understand the misty words in Zhao Lei's mouth. I only know one reason, just follow the eldest brother to say yes or no.

Hearing this, Zhao Lei put away his killing intent, and he had sent everyone else out before. I just want to take advantage of no one to throw Wang Da Wang Er here. Who wouldn't be tempted by the giant treasures, not to mention the cultivators who themselves have not advanced in cultivation, and what they are about to get is the treasure of improving their cultivation that cultivators dream of. How could Zhao Lei not be moved.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves. In Zhao Lei's heart, no matter what treasure Lin Qi gets, it is already his own. He thought that even if Lin Qi's cultivation had reached the mortal realm, he could not be his opponent.

......

On the vast mountains, I saw a white figure galloping. Originally, Lin Qi's skin was white and clean, and he was also handsome. Since the success of building the foundation, it has become more and more white, just like a girl's skin.

Lin Qi ** body, eight-pack abdominal muscles looming, his physique has been greatly improved, and he has no previous sense of weakness. The temperament is even more extraordinary, as if he is already a 1.75 meter boy. It turned out that Lin Qi was just a yodeler who was less than 1.7 meters tall.

Lin Qi's hair was not very long, and his shawl was scattered. A pair of sword eyebrows, Danfeng eyes. At this moment, his eyes were full of determination, and his scattered hair fluttered behind his head in the hurry.

Poof!~Puff......

With each step, a deep puddle of snow is left in place. Lin Qi can step five or six zhang away in one step, and the speed is extremely fast.

"It's been almost an hour since I ran, and I must have entered the Swan Mountains. Lin Qi stopped on a protruding boulder and looked around. Now it's all white, and it's hard to tell where you are. But in terms of feeling, Lin Qi could feel that he had entered the Swan Mountains.

At the same time, in the depths of Goosehead Mountain, Zhao Lei led a group of officers and soldiers to follow the footprints of the snow pit left by Lin Qi, and ran towards the direction where Lin Qi was located.

Zhao Lei looked at the footprints left by Lin Qi, and his heart was full of disdain. Although he was also shocked that Lin Qi had mastered a body technique so quickly, he didn't expect it to be so vulgar. If he used his own technique, he could step more than ten zhang in one step, and he would never leave such a conspicuous trace when running in the snow.

Lin Qi's cultivation of "Walking on the Heavens" is one of the top ten body methods in the ancient cultivation realm, and it is the same body method as the top body methods such as "Step by Step Lotus Sheng" and "Long Song Xing" that have been passed down to this day. It's just that Lin first peeked at the doorway, and he was a little unfamiliar with it.

"Hurry, hurry, they're all catching up!"

The firelight is heavy, and it stands out in this white space. Lin Qi looked at the yellow-orange flames that appeared behind him, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless. He also knew that someone would find him, but he didn't expect to find it so quickly.

"The 'footprints' left by this method are also too big. If you continue to run forward, even if you won't be caught up for a while, it won't be a long-term solution. Sooner or later, they will catch up, and we have to find a way to get rid of them!" Lin Qi thought secretly in his heart.

Poof!

Lin Qi thought about what solution there was while hurrying forward, he had just entered the mortal realm, and he would definitely not be able to defeat so many people. If you are caught up by these people, it will definitely be a dead end.

"Don't run!

"Stop!"

Wangwang~

Lin Qi didn't expect that the people from the official mansion behind him would catch up so quickly. The sound was not very far away, and a few dog barks could still be heard. Although there is no figure in sight, it is imminent.

"Eh, there it is!" Lin Qi noticed a jungle not far ahead, although the snow was thick. There are still branches exposed.

Lin Qi exerted his strength under his feet and ran over quickly. The brush sank into the jungle.

About a stick of incense, outside of this jungle. The officers and soldiers led by Zhao Lei arrived, and a group of torches shook to illuminate the surroundings.

"Zhao Tou, looking at the snow pit on the ground, that little beast must have entered this jungle. The man named Li Zhukuai next to him stepped forward to report.

Zhao Lei carefully looked around, and then turned to look at the jungle in front of him. I began to think about it.

I saw that this jungle was very vast, covering the Swan Mountains, but standing on the edge, I couldn't see the end at a glance.

"Zhaotou, this is Goose Feather Ridge, a sea of banyan forests. It is covered with ice and snow all year round, the terrain is very rugged and complex, and there is no shortage of large monsters. We'd better be careful, if we encounter demon beasts, we may have accidents!" A leader of officers and soldiers who came to assist from Qingtian County stood up at this time and said with a somewhat cautious expression.

"Oh, so this is Goose Feather Ridge. Hmm!" Zhao Lei nodded after listening to the words of the leader of the officers and soldiers. There is still some fame in the nearby Shiliba Village, and it is obvious that Zhao Lei has also heard of it.

"It's almost dawn, and that little brute can't run far. Everyone put out the torches, and a total of eighteen of us came, a small team of five people, to search the periphery of Goose Feather Ridge first. Wang Dawang and I were in a group and tracked along the snow pit. Act now!"

Zhao Lei gave an order, and everyone threw their torches into the snow under their feet. The sky is getting brighter and the snow is white under his feet, and the people who come are all mortal realm monks. The surrounding scenery is naturally unobstructed.

Zhao Lei carried a steel knife and led Wang Da Wang Er to take the lead in rushing into the goose feather ridge. Follow the footprints left by Lin Qi. The other three teams also entered the goose feather ridge.

Lin Qi ran a long way, and he had also heard that there were often demon beasts in the Swan Mountain Range, so naturally he didn't dare to venture too much. Hiding behind a row of broken logs, Lin Qi grabbed a handful of snow from the trunk and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it into his stomach.

"The snow here is so sweet and delicious. Delicious... mu... Delicious!"

Lin Qi gasped for a while, and began to think: No, if you continue like this, you will inevitably be caught up by the other party. I've got to figure out a way. It's almost dawn, and it's even harder to get out.

"There should be monsters in this vicinity, and these tree trunks should also be caused by some kind of large monsters. Lin Qi looked at the stout trees that had fallen around his body, and normal beasts definitely didn't have this kind of destructive power.

"If only I could let this monster contain them!

Lin Qi was secretly thinking about it, and suddenly saw a huge paw print under a few big trees not far away, which was about to be buried by snow, and it was really difficult to detect if he didn't look carefully. Lin Qi's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he said happily in his heart: There is!
