Chapter Seventy-Six: Separation
"Pain!" Tang Lang only felt boundless pain in his mind!
If the pain caused by the systematic transformation of the body was ten before, then the pain now is twenty, or even thirty!
Every trace of flesh and blood seemed to be baked on a blazing fire, and a red soldering iron seemed to be put into the chest, and there was a wave of heat between breaths, and the blood that had just burst out had dried up and turned into black blood foam, and only the last trace of consciousness was struggling to support it.
More than forty monsters could no longer find a complete body, stumps and scraps of flesh were spread all around, black and smelly blood was everywhere, and the white insects among them wriggled in the pool of blood for a moment, one by one bursting like foam, leaving only a puddle of green juice.
Tang Lang knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, and if there was such a big movement, it would not be long before an adventurer or a demonic beast would come to investigate the situation, and in his current state, even a three-year-old child could knock him down, muster up the last bit of physical strength, and wanted to stand up from the ground.
"Sizzle!" Tang Lang gasped, and while supporting his body on the ground with his hands, the wounds on his limbs that had been dried and cracked burst again, forming a blood mist around his body, and a large amount of blood loss made him a little dizzy......
"Hurry, faster!" Jiang Dali was followed by Xue Kaijie and Li Xinjue, the three of them were speeding through the dense forest at the highest speed, and they didn't care about the small scars on their faces and bodies that had been cut by tree branches, and they just wanted to go back to pick up Tang Lang as soon as possible.
After separating from Tang Lang just now, everyone in the team did their best to return to the town as quickly as possible, Jiang Dali and the three of them did not rest for a moment, and hurriedly returned to the place where they encountered the demon scorpion group, but they had just walked less than half the distance, and they heard a muffled sound from the depths of the jungle in the distance.
"Could it be that there are any more powerful demonic beasts appearing?" The three of them were even more worried about Tang Lang's situation, and the speed of their feet accelerated a little again, and there was only one thought in their hearts: to save Tang Lang!
But it often backfired, Tang Lang took the demon scorpion in the jungle for a long circle, and later was chased by the monster turned into a man in black, and the original location was far away, and when Jiang Dali and the three returned to the separate place, Tang Lang had already staggered to the edge of the jungle, less than a mile away from the town.
Tang Lang didn't know how long he had been walking, he only felt that his body had become numb in pain at first, and he couldn't even feel the existence of his hands and feet, but with strong perseverance, he mechanically moved forward with his legs, and the scene in front of him gradually became trance.
"No, this is a precursor to fainting when the injury is already extremely serious!" Tang Lang bit hard at the base of his tongue, and a smell of blood rushed straight to his mind, which stimulated him to wake up suddenly, and he found that he had unconsciously walked to the edge of the jungle, but the direction of the town was no longer distinguishable, and there was almost no chance to reach it safely.
The sky is already bright, and the chance of encountering other adventurers will be greatly increased if you continue to walk, and there is no ability to resist at all, which is like giving away someone's head, you must find a place to recover your strength first, and then have a chance to return to the town.
Dragging the broken body, Tang Lang found a hollow tree nearby, barely cleaned the surrounding footprints with weeds, and the whole person collapsed in the tree hole, reluctantly took out a maze array card from the jade pendant and threw it out of the tree hole, and fell asleep as soon as it was dark in front of him.
According to the traces on the ground, Jiang Dali and the three of them searched from the vicinity of the camp, first found the place where the man in black and the demon scorpion fought, first found the corpses of the demon scorpion everywhere, and then saw a white skeleton, and their hearts were all shocked: Could it be Tang Lang......
Li Xinjue, one of the three, was meticulous and noticed that there were a lot of fragments of black clothes and leather armor scattered near the white bones, so he deduced that this person was not Tang Lang, and then looked back, and there were messy footsteps everywhere on the ground.
Li Xinjue stepped forward to check his footsteps, put his feet into the footsteps and tested, and couldn't help but let out a "huh".
"What's the matter? Xinjue, what have you discovered?" Jiang Dali was anxious, thinking that he had found some important clues.
Li Xinjue pointed to the footprints on the ground and said slowly: "Look at these! The footprints are the same as those of ordinary people, and they are the footprints left by leather boots, but the distance between the footsteps is close to six feet, how can ordinary people have such a big step?"
Xue Kaijie was also angry and anxious: "Where do you still have the heart to look at this? Tang Lang doesn't know whether he is alive or dead now, hurry up to find out if there is his whereabouts, what can these messy footprints help!"
"After the captain left us behind, I also want to find him quickly, but the more we panic, the more likely we are to miss important clues! My intuition, these footprints should have something to do with the captain, otherwise you continue to look in the same place, I will follow the whereabouts of these footprints, and I can't let go of any clue!" Li Xinjue understood the feelings of his companion and patiently explained his thoughts.
Jiang nodded vigorously and agreed: "Okay, Capgemini and I will stay here and continue to search carefully, you go to track these steps, but don't go too far, leave a mark for us every hundred zhang, if you haven't returned after half an hour, we will go to find you along the road, be careful!"
Xue Kaijie's face was ashamed: "Xinjue, I was too anxious just now, I'm sorry!"
Li Xinjue smiled slightly: "It's all for the captain, I can understand, you guys should be careful!"
Li Xinjue broke up with the two and followed the footprints in the forest, but fortunately, these footprints were very easy to identify, and it didn't take long to find the decisive battle scene like the Shura field.
The disgusting smell made him retching uncontrollably: "What the hell is going on here?, the captain shouldn't have such a powerful move that can cause the immediate effect, is there anyone else ......?"
Li Xinjue remembered the muffled noise halfway through, and kept estimating various possibilities in his mind, the only thing he didn't expect was that the scene in front of him was related to Tang Lang. But he was unwilling to give up this possibility, and circled around the bloodstains, and finally saw the trace of Tang Lang leaving on the side.
"Well, the size of the footprints is exactly the same as that of the captain, and the footsteps are dragging down, indicating that he has been seriously injured......" After Li Xinjue entered the jungle, he roughly wrote down everyone's footprints, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
Hurriedly leaving obvious traces nearby, Li Xinjue continued to follow Tang Lang's footprints, and the tea kung fu came to the vicinity of the big tree where Tang Lang was healing.
"Huh, the footsteps disappeared?" Li Xinjue was already about to go crazy, and he had worked hard to chase all the way, but his footsteps disappeared out of thin air.
Forcing himself to calm down, Li Xinjue tried to think from the perspective of a bystander: "The first possibility, the captain is not lightly injured, and he is separated from us, and he will definitely want to recover from his injuries first, then with the captain's experience, he will definitely hide his whereabouts, so his footsteps will disappear; the other possibility, the captain is unable to resist when he encounters something strange, and he is caught in the air or on a tree, so that there will be no traces of fighting; and ......;
After imagining countless possible scenarios, Li Xinjue finally felt that Tang Lang was most likely to heal his wounds, or he was most willing to accept this possibility from the bottom of his heart. Thinking of this, he no longer continued to guess, and looked for clues in the vicinity in more detail.
Jiang Dali on the other side did not make any new discoveries, and after waiting for a long time and not seeing Li Xinjue return, they followed the mark he left all the way to find it, and when they passed by the scene of the decisive battle, they were also shocked, and soon came to the place where Tang Lang disappeared.
Xue Kaijie saw Li Xinjue lying on the ground as if he was observing something again, and hurriedly went up and asked, "How is it, have you found the captain?"
Li Xinjue shook his head and nodded: "I haven't found it yet, but it's almost there!"
Xue Kaijie explained: "Xinjue, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing, I was confused by you, what do you mean that you haven't found it yet?"
Li Xinjue got up from the ground, pointed to a few big trees nearby, and said, "Have you seen these big trees?" Although they are tall, they can only walk around in more than ten steps, but the largest one over there I have to walk for almost fifty steps to return to the original place. And the ants on the ground that I just found disappear as soon as they climb near that big tree!"
Jiang Dali showed a thoughtful expression after hearing this, but Xue Kaijie still didn't understand: "Xinjue, I think you are confused." We're looking for the whereabouts of the captain, you're a big tree and an antworm, I don't understand!"
Li Xinjue deliberately ignored him, turned to Jiang Dali and said, "Dali, do you understand?"
Jiang Dali nodded and said, "Understood, you two are guarding here, I'll go back and pick up Starlight." ”
"Okay, go and come back quickly, we are guarding here!" Li Xinjue nodded in agreement.
Xue Kaijie was even more foggy, and Li Xinjue had no choice but to continue to explain: "I estimate that the captain is hiding in that big tree, and the maze array is hidden nearby, so I asked Dali to go back and find the starlight to break the formation!"
Xue Kaijie was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, and shouted: "Then what are you waiting for! Let's shoot together, the Lost Trace Array won't be able to resist for long, so it's important to find the captain first!"
He raised his fist and was about to break the formation, but was hurriedly stopped by Li Xinjue: "If it's so simple, where do I need to let Dali run again! You don't use your brain to think about why the captain is hiding here instead of rushing back to the town." It must be because of the seriousness of the injury that he has to find a place to heal, if we break the formation rashly, in case his injury is aggravated, I see how you explain it to everyone!"
Xue Kaijie suddenly realized: "You kid is still a famous ghost!"
Li Xinjue said angrily: "It's not that I have a lot of ghosts, it's that you are stupid!"
Finally found Tang Lang's whereabouts, both of them relaxed, and it didn't take long for Jiang Dali to come back with Miao Xingguang.
Miao Xingguang turned around the big tree a few times, nodded and said, "It's indeed a lost array!" I saw him running back and forth around the big tree several times, pointing his fingers, and quickly cracking the formation.
Several people saw it at the same time: Tang Lang, who was covered in blood, was lying unconscious in the tree hole!
