Chapter 166: Trapped Snow
The team walked more than 60 miles in the North Mountain, the sky was already covered with frozen clouds, and it was broad daylight, but the four fields were like night, the snowflakes were as big as palms, dense as weaving, and after a while, the heavy snow fell to knee-deep. Seeing this situation, Wei Mu's brows furrowed even tighter.
He turned back to everyone and said, "Be careful, now the enemy is in the open, I am in the dark, although their strength is not as strong as ours, but sneak attacks are always a little difficult to deal with." ”
Guo Yi looked up at the dark sky and said, "This snow must be strange, it is not normal snow, it should be done by demonic power." Unexpectedly, among the monsters at the beginning of the Spirit Fortune Realm, there are still such supernatural powers. ”
Wei Mu said: "I don't know what happened to Lu Shaoxia, if he can attract one or two crow monsters over, our pressure will be much lighter." ”
Long Xuan sneered: "It's good that he can save his life, thinking that with a sword soul sword, he can deal with two crow monsters?"
Wei Mu said worriedly: "Maybe it's still wrong to divide the troops, it's only a hundred miles from Ningcheng Lake here, those crow monsters can completely solve the battle over there, and then fly over to attack us specifically." ”
Long Xuan said with a smile: "Why should Commander Wei worry, our current team is already very strong, not to mention that with Master Guo and Master Ma here, it can be said that it is foolproof." ”
They walked a little further, and the snow was waist-deep. Guo Yi sneered and said, "Get off the horse!" He got off his horse first and walked on foot in the snow. Wherever he walked, there were no footprints. Wei Mu saw it and secretly praised: "Amazing! He himself has been praised for his ability to tread snow without a trace, but when he steps on the snow, the snow will still sink for half a minute, and after a while, the snow will return to its original appearance, and there will be no traces if you don't look carefully. Compared with Guo Yi, this is far behind.
And when they saw them dismount, they all dismounted from their horses. The horses were simply left here, and the snow would get deeper and the horses wouldn't be able to walk any further. They each performed their own body techniques and walked on the snow, but everyone's cultivation was different, and those who cultivated to the lower Qi Refining Realm intermediate level, with each step, their entire feet would sink into the snow.
After Long Xuan got off the horse, his shoes were also stuck in the snow, he was angry, he walked to the front of the team, raised his hand, and a lantern-sized fireball appeared in the palm of his hand, he threw the fireball to the road ahead, and the fireball rolled all the way, melting a groove more than two feet deep in the snow.
"Master Xuan, the snow is too thick, we can't burn it. Guo Yi dissuaded.
Long Xuan said angrily: "It's really boring, they are obviously hiding nearby, but they don't dare to come out to fight, what cowards!"
Guo Yi smiled and said to a young master of Kagura Palace: "Luo Yang, you come to carry Xuan Gongzi on your back, don't let Xue stain Gongzi's shoes." ”
The young man named Luo Yang was tall and had broad shoulders and a back, he agreed, and hurriedly came over and let Long Xuan sit on his shoulder.
Wei Mu saw it, and sighed secretly in his heart, feeling remorseful for what he had just said, where are these people from Kagura Palace like immortal cultivators who came to do bounty tasks, they are simply rich sons traveling and hunting. Compared with this, Lu Chaoran, who is not highly cultivated, is more like a reliable helper, decisive and resolute.
"Oh no!" came a panicked cry from behind. The one who made this shout was a mid-level Ning City guard of the Qi Refining Realm. Wei Mu immediately became nervous, and he shouted: "Don't panic! Say it well, what's going on?"
"Li Rui is gone!" the guard tried to suppress his panic.
Wei Mu walked quickly to the back of the team and asked the guard, "Sun Biao, Li Rui is at the back of the line?"
"Yes, Commander Wei. The guard, Sun Biao, replied.
Wei Mu showed a trace of regret on his face, this Li Rui was one of his few subordinates at the beginning of the Spirit Fortune Realm, and he specially arranged to press the formation at the back of the team. Last time, I died in the Spirit Luck Realm, but I didn't expect the strength of the team to increase greatly this time, and the first one to lose was the first level of the Spirit Luck Realm. He only had four Spirit Fortune Realms in total, and now there were only two left. One of them is still there with Lu Chaoran.
Guo Yi and Ma Cheng went one after the other, and brought Long Xuan to check, but Long Xuan was still sitting on Luo Yang's shoulder.
Wei Mu looked at the people in Kagura Palace and said, "We have already lost one person, although we haven't seen the body yet, but since it's gone, I think it must be more than lucky." ”
As soon as Guo Yi raised his hand, a strong wind was set off, and the snow on the road was blown by this strong wind, and it was suddenly blown open a deep ditch more than ten zhang long, where you could see the soil. However, Li Rui's body was not seen.
Wei Mu shook his head and said, "It doesn't have to be here, maybe he has already been attacked." Sun Biao, when did you find out that Li Rui was missing?"
Sun Biao replied: "I just turned around by chance, but I don't know when he disappeared." Because I didn't hear anything. ”
It was another exclamation from the front of the team: "Oh no, Litt is gone!"
Wei Mu Guo Yi and Ma Cheng were shocked when they heard this, although Li Te's right elbow was injured in the competition with Lu Chaoran, it was not very serious, and he was stubborn to go out with the team, so he was allowed to come, but he didn't expect that he was the second to be attacked.
Only now did Guo Yi panic, and he hurriedly ordered: "Ma Cheng, you and the rest of the people protect Master Xuan, and you can't make a mistake!" Commander Wei, let's go and check it out together. ”
Wei Mu nodded, so the two of them hurried towards the place where Li Teh disappeared. And Ma Cheng and the remaining young masters of the Kagura Palace protected Xuan Gongzi in the middle.
The other guards had no interest in protecting Xuan Gongzi, so they formed a defensive formation on the sidelines. Before Guo Wei's two masters came back, they didn't dare to act rashly.
Guo Yi and Wei Mu came to the place where Li Te's accident happened and saw blood stains in the snow.
"It's from the air. Guo Yi and Wei Mu glanced at each other.
Guo Yi asked: "The last time you entered the mountain, the main threat also came from the air?"
Wei Mu shook his head and said, "The crow monsters in the air are indeed a big trouble, but the other monsters should not be underestimated. But last time they didn't make heavy snow, and they didn't sneak attack like this. They waited for us to enter their ambush and then suddenly came out and fought with us. ”
Guo Yi pondered: "It seems that this time, they also understand that our strength is much stronger than last time, so they changed their strategy. ”
Wei Mu nodded and said, "These monsters are good hunters. ”
"Hunters?" Guo Yi frowned, "We are the hunters." They have succeeded in sneak attacks twice, and it should be over here, and next, the old man will personally take action to deal with them one by one!"
