Chapter 166: Zhao Zhen's strength
Through the investigation methods, Luo Ning also found some clues, but what made him a little speechless was that those only remaining clues had also been detected by Huang Yefei's people.
In this world, some people are born with a keen sense of smell and have a unique talent for detective things, and there are many such people in Feixingya.
However, Luo Ning is not discouraged, although those people also have good detection skills, but compared with the top professional detectives on the earth, they are still a step behind. So Luo Ning was confident that he would find Zhao Zhen before those people.
"Judging from the current clues, Zhao Zhen shouldn't have left Maple Stone Valley yet." Tong Guò's latest clue, Luo Ning roughly guessed this result, Zhao Zhen's words, should not have left Maple Valley, it is very likely that he is hiding in a corner of Maple Valley.
However, although Luo Ning was able to deduce this fact, he still couldn't guess the location of the latter, after all, the area of Maple Valley was very large, and it was almost difficult to find a person in it, and it was a person who was specially hidden.
Fortunately, Luo Ning had already been prepared, so he didn't flinch.
Therefore, for the next few days, Ronin spent the daytime watching and infiltrating Maple Valley to conduct reconnaissance.
At first, Luo Ning didn't find any valuable clues, but on the third day, he finally noticed that something was wrong.
"Bloodstains?" In a remote corner, Ronin saw a trace of blood on the ground.
According to Luo Ning's observation, it should be the blood stains of a first-level demon beast called Porcupine Pig, because on top of those blood stains, there are some scattered porcupine hairs.
Originally, it was a normal thing to see this kind of thing on the periphery of Feixingya, near the mountain ranges, you must know that many Feixingya disciples often come to hunt demon beasts in the mountains outside Feixingya, leaving the same imprint in many mountain ranges.
However, this imprint appears in Maple Rock Valley. Something was wrong, because recently, Maple Valley had been locked down, and there were hardly any outside disciples coming in. So there will be hunting marks of the porcupine pig here. It's a little unusual.
Of course, this can also be interpreted in this way to mean that these imprints were left by disciples patrolling Maple Rock Valley. It is possible that the patrol disciple hunted a porcupine pig to make a tooth sacrifice while patrolling.
But Luo Ning doesn't think so, because. The disciples patrolling in Maple Valley all have a uniform distribution of food, and there is no need to hunt a monster beast like a porcupine pig that does not taste very good to fight tooth sacrifices.
As for the demon crystal of the porcupine pig, no one will make up his mind, because the porcupine pig is a very low-level demon beast, and it is already good luck to be able to give birth to a demon crystal on the ten porcupine pigs. Unless the average person is too idle, he will hunt the porcupine.
So, based on the above points. Luo Ning was sure that the bloodstains of this porcupine thorn pig were not left by the patrolling disciples of Maple Valley, and it was very likely that they were from Zhao Zhen's hand.
The latter is besieged in the Maple Rock Valley, and there will definitely be a shortage of food after a long time, so he needs to go out to find food, but there are patrol disciples everywhere outside, and if he goes out at will, it will be easy to expose his whereabouts, so the only way is to use local materials. See what you eat.
"It should be nearby." Luo Ning stood up, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes, the bloodstains of the porcupine pig here had not yet dried, and it could be deduced that the latter should not have gone far.
Think of it this way. Luo Ning did not hesitate and followed the traces.
However, to Luo Ning's surprise, the trace was quickly interrupted, as if someone had deliberately erased it. This discovery confirmed the guess in Luo Ning's heart, if it wasn't for Zhao Zhen to stay. How can the traces be erased?
With a faint smile, Luo Ning began to follow the professional detective technique, following the extremely hidden traces, and continued to track.
After tracking the two hills, Luo Ning finally saw Zhao Zhen's figure.
However, Luo Ning did not make a move on Zhao Zhen at the first time, but quickly found a place to hide.
It's not that Luo Ning was worried about being seen by Zhao Zhen, but because Zhao Zhen at this time was actually bumped into by a patrol team of five people.
"Wow! Zhao Zhen, you still dare to appear! At this time, after seeing Zhao Zhen, the patrol team of five people immediately shouted excitedly, and the one headed by them jumped out directly, pointed at Zhao Zhen and shouted: "Zhao Zhen, you have nowhere to escape, it's better to go back with us to see Senior Brother Huang Yefei honestly!" ”
"Damn it!" Zhao Zhen looked at the five people in front of him who quickly surrounded him, his brows furrowed slightly, he didn't expect that he was so unlucky and was actually surrounded by people.
"Zhao Zhen, don't hurry up and catch it!" The man took the Xuantie Sword in his hand and shouted at Zhao Zhen. And the other four people also stared at Zhao Zhen vigilantly, for fear that the latter would escape.
"Do you think you can keep me?" Looking at the Flying Star disciple who was holding the Xuantie Sword and pointing at him, Zhao Zhen said coldly.
"Hey, Zhao Zhen, I admit that your strength at the intermediate level of the Iron Skin Realm is very powerful, if other teams meet you alone, I'm afraid it will really not be your opponent, but I can only blame you for being unlucky and meeting our team." The man sneered, and the aura on his body burst out, and he was actually a master who had reached the primary level of the Iron Skin Realm.
"One Iron Skin Realm Primary, two Tiger Power Realm Peaks, and two Tiger Power Realm Advanced."
Luo Ning hid behind a huge bush, and checked the situation over there through the gaps in the bushes, as well as the strength of the five people, but in the end, he shook his head regretfully, if it was Jiang Tianyou or Du Hongtian, then it was indeed a little difficult for Zhao Zhen to escape from the hands of these five people this time, but Zhao Zhen was different from Jiang Tianyou and Du Hongtian, and the real strength of the latter was probably at the level of the Iron Skin Realm.
Sure enough, when all five people released their breath, Zhao Zhen suddenly smiled, "Hahaha, what's the matter, do you think this little power can trap me?" ”
"Huh?" When the five people saw Zhao Zhen's appearance, their brows were all furrowed, and a bad premonition came to their hearts.
I saw Zhao Zhen drop the porcupine pig in his hand, and he also released his own breath, and when the qi wave rolled, the momentum instantly rushed to Cheng Dù, who was at the top of the Iron Skin Realm.
"W-how is this possible?" The five people felt the aura on Zhao Zhen's body, and all of them showed a trace of horror at the moment. Zhao Zhen's strength has reached the advanced level of the Iron Skin Realm, and even if they join forces, it will be difficult for them to be the latter's opponent. (To be continued.) )
