Chapter 468: Will there be an ambush
The black stone forest was quiet, and Qin Shi sat under the stone pier and held the jade bottle in the palm of his hand.
Immediately, he closed his eyes and calmed down.
Normally, his divine consciousness could only sweep a small distance around his body, but when he entered this state of emptiness, his divine consciousness could extend several times.
The divine sense swept out, looked around, and found that there was a thin purple and blue gas left in the air here, which was obviously left by the scorpion man.
These purple-blue gases are dispersed and are almost everywhere around here.
"There's a purple and blue smell everywhere, it's impossible to make out at all, go a little further and take a look." Qin Shi's heart moved, and he walked hundreds of meters towards one side.
However, the jade bottle still emitted a purple-blue light.
In a different direction, the result was the same, which indicated that the smell of purple and blue had gathered in the black stone forest.
If the scorpion man leaves from here, how can he keep turning around here? Unless the scorpion man didn't leave at all, he was here all along.
Therefore, the purple smoke and blue gas here are strong, so that the bottle will continue to shine.
After cultivating for a while, he felt that he had made great progress, and he ran to Qin Shi's side excitedly, and just wanted to open his mouth.
However, when he saw Qin Shi's puzzled face, he immediately stopped and asked, "Boss, what's going on?" ”
"I suspect that the mercenary is in this black stone forest." Qin Shi said.
"Won't it?"
"I already investigated just now, and the smell of purple and blue gathered in the stone forest."
"That guy can't be that stupid, right? Knowing that someone was following him, he still dared to stay here? Could it be something else? ”
Qin Shi frowned slightly, and he was also very puzzled by this.
Putting away the jade bottle, Qin Shi pointed ahead and said, "No matter what, we must first figure out this matter." Let's go in and see. ”
"Wait, boss, will there be an ambush?" Thorn Qiang's face was full of vigilance, after all, the people of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Group were not vegetarians, and if that person really stayed here, he would definitely have other plans.
"Even if there is an ambush, I must go in and find out."
Qin Shi's expression was firm, just now he had just surveyed the outer area of the Black Stone Forest, and he didn't go too deep.
Because, he felt that the man would leave quickly after getting rid of the tracking, and he would not stay here for long.
Now it seems that he was wrong.
Seeing that Qin Shi walked out directly inside, he had already made up his mind, and he was helpless, so he hurriedly followed, and shouted at the same time: "Boss, you go slowly." Actually, I have some experience with this kind of environment. ”
"Oh?" Qin Shi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Tingqiang strangely.
Thorn Qiang smiled, and without saying anything, he walked in front of Qin Shi and said, "Boss, don't underestimate these stone piers. Actually, if you really go inside, it's easy to get lost if you don't have experience. ”
"What did you just say? Will you get lost? ”
"yes."
Hearing this, a fine light flashed in Qin Shi's eyes, as if he had guessed something, but he was not sure. Suddenly, he said to the prickly head: "Lead the way, the movement is smaller." ”
"I understand." Thorn Qiang suddenly realized, and his steps slowed down a lot.
Qin Shi saw it in his eyes, and he also secretly appreciated it. Because, he could see that the strong steps of the prickly head were mixed with the exercises he had just taught him.
And to be able to use it in such a short time, I have to say that Thorn Qiang is a good seedling for martial arts.
The two walked into the Black Stone Forest, only to find that the Black Stone Forest was far larger and more complex than they had imagined.
The stone piers seem to be sparsely distributed, but together they are in the thousands; If ordinary people step into this place, they are afraid that they will soon lose their direction and get completely lost here.
Thorn Qiang walked in front, his face full of stern.
However, after walking for a while, Qin Shi suddenly felt that something was wrong, and said in a low voice: "It seems that we have been here just now. ”
"Wouldn't it? I just walked in a straight line. Thorn Qiang said as he looked around carefully, then shook his head with a smile and said, "This place is indeed similar to the previous stretch of road, but it is definitely not there. ”
"How can you be so sure?" Qin Shi asked.
"Usually when I come to this kind of place, I leave markers along the way. And there are no marks on the stone piers here. Thorn Qiang smiled, a hint of smugness on his face.
Qin Shi was stunned: "Is that so?" ”
"Hehe, this place does get lost. I'm afraid that many people will think the same way as you, thinking that if you have walked through this place before, you will think that you are lost, and then you will definitely change directions, and in that case, you will really trap yourself in it. Thorn Qiang analyzed, and seemed to know a lot about this kind of thing.
However, Qin Shi frowned, feeling that things were not so simple.
He looked around again, and as he came, he had been releasing his senses, and he was sure that this was indeed the place he had just passed.
Seeing Qin Shi stop, he was puzzled: "Boss, you follow me, I'm afraid you'll get lost later." ”
"Actually, we're lost." Qin Shi said.
"Impossible."
Thorn Qiang became agitated, confident in his experience.
Qin Shi smiled, glanced up at the sky, and said, "If you don't believe it, I can prove it to you." ”
"Huh? How to prove it? I don't see any marks of my scratching on this stone pier. ”
"It's simple, you keep going, I'm here for you. If you see me in a moment, won't that mean we're lost? ”
"That's a good idea, but what if you don't get lost?"
Thorn Qiang was thoughtful, and he knew that he was worried about Qin Shi.
However, Qin Shi just waved his hand: "If that's the case, I will naturally catch up with you." ”
"That's fine, then I'll go first." Thorn Qiang said, walked forward directly, and disappeared in Qin Shi's eyes after a while.
The corners of Qin Shi's mouth curled, and then he sat cross-legged and rested in place.
He had heard that in ancient times, some people liked to study some thaumaturgy, and there was a science called Qimen Dunjia, which was to lay out some wonderful mazes.
And the current situation is very similar to Qimen Dunjia.
Moreover, to be able to arrange such a big maze as the Black Stone Forest, that person must have extraordinary strength.
With thousands of stone piers here alone, it's not so easy to do.
Not long after, Qin Shi heard footsteps behind him, and immediately showed a smile.
Immediately, Thorn Qiang shouted like a ghost: "Boss, when did you go in front of me?" ”
"I didn't move, but you walked behind me." Qin Shi said lightly.
"Why does this sound so tongue-twisting? What does that mean exactly? ”
"To put it bluntly, we're lost, and you've just come full circle."
"What? How is this possible? I obviously made a mark, but there is obviously something on this stone pier, it is impossible to disappear out of thin air, right? ”
Qin Shi just shook his head, and then said, "You go to the back of the stone pier and take a look, and you will naturally understand it as soon as you get it." ”
Hearing this, Thorn Qiang hurriedly walked to the back of the stone pier, and suddenly found that there were traces left by him on it.
"Hell, what the hell is going on? Are we just trapped? The thorn gritted his teeth and said, just now he was full of confidence and claimed to be experienced, but he didn't expect to be trapped in a blink of an eye, and his face was naturally a little unbearable.
"That's just the way it is." Qin Shi nodded slightly.
Thorn Qiang also gradually calmed down at this time, and asked, "Boss, how did you find out about this?" ”
Qin Shi pointed to the air, and the thorn head subconsciously looked over, but he didn't find anything special.
"Tonight's astrological sign is very distinctive, it is called the Seven Stars Turning Soul, so I remember it at a glance. And the Seven Stars Soul Turning Soul we see now has changed direction from when we first came in. Qin Shi explained.
Suddenly, Thorn Qiang was shocked, and at the same time, he admired Qin Shi for even understanding such a mysterious thing as the stars.
Looking around curiously, his face was full of amazement, and said, "This stone forest is so big, I didn't expect it to be a labyrinth." ”
Immediately, he made a bitter face: "This is terrible, we are trapped here, there is no water and no food, I am afraid that we will be trapped here in the end." ”
Qin Shi's face was indifferent, and he said: "These stone piers are not static, as long as someone touches the mechanism, these stone piers will change their position. Therefore, we seem to have been moving forward just now, but in fact, it is because the environment interferes with our judgment that it will be like this. ”
"What does the boss mean, we can get out?"
"Of course."
Qin Shi smiled and nodded.
Thorn Qiang suddenly had a feeling that the mountains and rivers were helpless and there was no way out, and the willows and flowers were bright and another village, and he hurriedly asked: "How to get out?" ”
"Actually, it's very easy to get out of here. Just look at the stars in the sky and keep walking in one direction under your feet. Qin Shi said with a smile.
"What if there's a stone pier in front of you?" Thorn Tou asked.
"Keep walking, the stone pier will naturally get out of the way."
Qin Shi's expression was calm, but then he said, "However, we can't leave now. ”
"What does the boss mean, is it ......?"
"That's right, since we're lost, that mercenary must be trapped in here as well. We still have to rely on him to find the location of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Group, so we can't let him die here at this time. ”
Thorn Qiang's face was full of displeasure, but he also nodded.
The two were about to go to find the shoe man, when a frightened scream suddenly came from the stone forest.
The voice was abrupt, instantly breaking the silence of the stone forest.
Qin Shi knew that the other party must have found out that he was lost, so he would be so angry.
"It must be the mercenary. Boss, should we go over and have a look? Thorn Qiang asked.
"Hmm. But don't let him find out, when it's critical, you can even help him and get him out of here safely. ”
The corners of Qin Shi's mouth curled, revealing a hint of evil smile, and then his body flashed, and he disappeared into the darkness in an instant.
