Chapter 262: Shadow Technique
The little old man nodded and shook his head, and said, "We're not going anywhere, just waiting for them here." ”
Wu Yi was dumbfounded, if he didn't leave, wouldn't he kill himself?
Zhou Tong said in surprise, "Could it be that you have already cultivated the Shadow Technique-Barrier to the highest level?"
"What is a shadow technique," Wu Yi asked.
"As the name suggests, the shadow technique is an illusion technique used in the dark, but in order to hide the breath and traces, the shadow technique is usually much weaker than the power of ordinary illusion skills, so the shadow technique is generally used during sneak attacks, of course, the hidden figure is also included in the shadow technique. Zhou Kang said.
Wu Yi nodded thoughtfully. "Let's take a few steps upstream, and then find a suitable spot to hide. ”
After the little old man finished speaking, he took the lead in walking upstream along the river, and as he walked, in order to leave a trace that seemed to be nothing, some of his footprints were stepped on in the water, and some of his footprints were stepped on the river beach.
After walking a kilometer, the little old man said, "Let's swim to the other side." ”
Wu Yi looked into the water, where the current was slow, just enough to swim over. At this time, Wu Yi's wound had already condensed, and even if he was in the water, the wound on his shoulder would not split. I really don't know where the little old man got the medicine so magical, and the effect of the treatment is simply amazing.
What Wu Yi didn't know was that this medicine was also not easy for the little old man to get, and he was usually reluctant to use it at all, unless it was a crisis, or this time, Wu Yi was injured, he took it out and used it, but the little old man himself basically did not use this medicine once, which is enough to see the degree of the little old man's relationship with Wu Yi.
When they came to the opposite side, they did not go ashore, but came to the water's edge with a large rock, and the little old man showed the latest demonstration, squatting there in a strange posture, and the three of them sat together, their lower bodies soaked in the water, only their heads were exposed on the water.
Suddenly, a gray-black translucent disc shone on their heads, Wu Yi only felt that the sky was darkened in an instant, Wu Yi just wanted to speak, but found that the little old man had entered a settled posture, Zhou Tong said: "Don't disturb him, this is the shadow technique - barrier, others can't find us outside, but this barrier can only hinder vision, not sound." ”
As soon as Wu Yi and the others quieted down and didn't speak, they saw a few people on the other side, this was another group of people who were chasing them, and the team that first found the location of their tree felling had already chased downstream.
And this team chased upstream, but the little old man's shadow technique worked, even if Wu Yi and them were close at hand, they couldn't see it.
They observed for a while, and then walked upstream, and the little old man immediately removed the barrier after they left, gasping for breath, it seems that the use of shadow skills is still very exhausting and magical.
Zhou Tong leaked an apologetic expression for the first time, he blamed himself for not being proficient in learning, he had studied this skill for a long time, but he never achieved the effect of the little old man, young people always have a time when they were anxious, what he didn't know was that the little old man only achieved such an effect when he was in his 40s, and it was only in his old age that he was able to block 3 people at the same time.
So Zhou Tong doesn't have to feel anxious and confused, but these are the words in their hearts, to put it bluntly, they have just met, and they have not yet reached the point where they have nothing to talk about.
Wu Yi saw that the little old man was so tired, and knew that it was impossible for the little old man to support the use of the next shadow skill, so he had to say, "Let's go, we can't stay here anymore." ”
Although they threw away two groups of people, they didn't feel relaxed, they vaguely felt that there were people following them behind them.
The little old man agreed, and could not stay here any longer, so he pointed in the direction of the east and continued walking. In fact, Wu Yi knew that although they said that the final destination was Gray Ghost City, the little old man only said that it was in the direction of the east.
But the route they took was not to go all the way to the east, but to the north for a while, and to the east for a while, taking a Z-shaped route, the truth of which Wu Yi could also guess, they were afraid that they would be kept walking in a straight line, and the people who were chasing them would find their final destination, so as to intercept them in front.
But this time, they didn't have much energy to make a detour, and instead went up the river bank and kept heading east.
Although the little old man's magic power is strong, but his spirit has languished a lot, it seems that he has been in such a hurry without resting, it is still very exhausting, Wu Yi saw the little old man like this, and he was also a little sleepy. Among them, Zhou Tong has the best mental power, after years of training and participated in many tasks, his mental power has already been exercised very strong.
At this time, the person leading the team had also been replaced by Zhou Tong, he opened the way in front, while Wu Yi and the little old man followed behind him, they were walking through the woods, to put it bluntly, all the roads ahead had to be stepped out step by step.
If you encounter a steep slope or something in front of you, you have to take a detour. If it was in normal times, Wu Yi would definitely feel that the sun in the early morning after the rain was exceptionally bright and the air was exceptionally fresh, especially in this mountain forest.
But at this time, the road ahead was unknown, and he only felt a huge sense of oppression coming from the rear, which Wu Yi had never felt.
A young man in his teens and twenties didn't do anything wrong, but inexplicably, he was hunted down by the magnates of the entire capital of the Blood Southern Empire, how could this not make him feel a huge sense of pressure and urgency.
Is it because Wu Yi's background is different from others, is his background so important? Wu Yi asked in his heart. In fact, in this world, background is very important, a good background means a good cultivation environment, it means that you can be one step faster than others, go further, live better and longer, just like some people, can never become a phantom beast master, can only do some very simple and ordinary work, to seek resources for survival, never come out.
Of course, for such people, they don't want to have a bright future, because that is beyond their means, it is something they can never do, and thinking too much about it will not do any good except that they are tired of their current life.
Although Zhou Tong had traveled this long distance, they did not inquire about each other's details, so Zhou Tong still didn't know why so many people wanted to hunt down Wu Yi, and Wu Yi didn't know what kind of existence the Shadow Guard was. They seem to maintain a delicate balance, that is, as much as you tell me, I will tell you as much.
The rest of the road was a little quieter, and it wasn't until they crossed a ravine that they encountered new troubles.
