When I came out of the store, I saw that the town was dark, there were not many shops on the street, and the residents had closed their doors early, but there were still one or two people walking around the street.

The nunnery master led three disciples and hurried out of the town. Only then did he lower his waist and perform the nocturnal technique, and his feet were like flying. These three disciples also galloped with their efforts, but how could their night skills compete with their masters?

Under the anger of the master of Ciyun Nunnery, he actually forgot that the three disciples could keep up with his footsteps, and walked out of five or six miles, leaving Xiuyuan and Xiuhui more than half a mile behind, and the three disciples of Zen cultivation barely caught up.

The plan of the master of Ciyun Nunnery is that after calculating that the Fengwei party members have fled, they must be pursued, and calculating this distance, they should go to the southeast of Yongning City to turn to the waterway. It's just that they must have avoided the pursuit route from Hongtu Station, and the speculation of the master of Ciyun Nunnery is really insightful. Coming to Hongtuyi, this area is a flooded depression, very desolate, full of sorghum trees, and the fields are crisscrossed by roads.

The master of Ciyun Nunnery discerned the terrain, slowed down his feet, and waited, the three disciples of Zen cultivation arrived, and the master of Ciyun Nunnery said in a low voice: "What about the two of them?"

Xiu Zen hurriedly said: "The junior disciples are behind!"

The master of Ciyun Nunnery wanted to ask questions, and suddenly flicked the sleeves of his robe to practice meditation, and the master and apprentice went to the edge of the sorghum field to hide their figures. Suddenly, he saw that he was half an arrow away, and two black shadows jumped past from the left side of the road to the right side of the road, and his body was brisk, and he was gone at a glance.

The master and apprentice wanted to catch up, and Xiu Zen suddenly whispered again: "Master, there are more!"

Sure enough, there were two black shadows again, and the master of Ciyun Nunnery said to Xiu Zen: "Come with me." "The body spreads, and slanted into a small path opposite.

Xiu Zen also saw that the four black shadows must be from the green forest, and he also chased them down. The body of the master of Ciyun Nunnery is like an arrow off the string, and he wants to rob such a bandit from the path. At the end of the trail that crossed the sorghum field, at the junction with a wider dirt road heading east, a little inspection showed that the black shadows were all masters of the green forest, and they had crossed the intersection and rushed to the east.

The master of Ciyun Nunnery tiptoed behind the thief and chased down.

This road is very desolate, and the black shadows in front of you are hidden from time to time. The master and apprentice chased along this crop field one after the other, chasing forward more than two arrows, and suddenly there was a sound on the sorghum tree on his side, and a black shadow, like a swallow sweeping the air, passed over his head, fell down, and had left the lord of Ciyun Nunnery. The master of Ciyun Nunnery hurriedly turned to the left side, and the female disciple of Zen cultivation was also deeply guided by the master of the nunnery, and without the care of the master of the nunnery, she shrugged and jumped to the right, and the master and apprentice were divided into two places.

This is the key to meeting the enemy at night, and it is most taboo to care for each other and squeeze in one place. The master of Ciyun Nunnery took out three "Shamen Seven Treasure Beads", raised his arms and was ready to go, and the disciple Xiu Zen also raised his hand and took out the bell dart of the hundred flowers.

At this moment, the calm voice of the person in front of him spoke: "Do you dare to be the master of the nunnery over there?"

The lord of Ciyun Nunnery hurriedly retracted his palm and replied, "Oh!

Xiu Zen also heard that it was Uncle Wanliutang, but fortunately he didn't send a dart, so he quietly hurriedly returned the dart to the dart bag, and rushed over to greet Wanliutang: "Uncle." ”

Wan Liutang nodded and said, "The little master is also here, how is it?" Speaking of this, he looked behind the master of the nunnery and said, "Master of the nunnery, why did you come here, what about the two disciples?"

The lord of Ciyun Nunnery said with slight disgust: "In the past thirty years, the poor nuns have swept away the demons with swords, and they have not gone through the downside. I didn't expect to be made by a rat thief this time, I'm really ashamed to see Brother Wan. Then he said that the thief used the golden cicada to break out of his shell, and he chased after him angrily, and the sixth disciple Xiuyuan and the seventh disciple Xiuhui were all because their feet were too slow and they fell behind.

"I figured that the thieves might be heading for the Red Clay Slope, so I chased after them. Unexpectedly, I found a thief in front of me, and my master and apprentice chased here, but the thief was gone. I didn't expect Brother Wan to arrive too, did Brother Wan have something to do?"

Wan Liutang, the life-sustaining divine doctor, said: "In short, we despised the bandits, but we didn't know that there were masters among the bandits who were secretly dispatching! We got a letter from the little master of cultivation, and immediately got up with my senior brother. Unexpectedly, when he left the store, he saw the trace of the thief, and the cunning thief actually used the method of dividing the army to lure the enemy. Senior Brother Sun and I each chased all the way, and asked the little master to take Situ Qian and the stupid boy Zuo Heng to leave the matter of chasing the thief and rush to the red clay slope to wait for us. We only wanted to say these few words, but the thieves broke into the green gauze tent and chased them straight to the avenue running to the red clay slope in front of us, and only then did we catch a glimpse of the thieves fleeing down the road. If we hadn't chased this bandit, how could we have met the owner of the nunnery? Master, I think the situation of the thieves seems to be deliberately luring us astray. All these who show up are not necessarily deliberately disturbing the eyes and ears of the pursuit. As far as I know, there is no fork in the road to the south, which is about a shortcut to Yiyang City, which goes straight to the city. Since the bandits are holding two people in their hands, how can they go from an important place to attract people's attention? Although the henchmen of the Fengwei faction are all over the place, most of them are green forests on the water. They walk on the water, and they can be easily answered, and they can avoid people's eyes and ears, so let's not fall for the thieves again. simply rushed to the red clay slope, met with Senior Brother Sun, and went to Longhuayi. We discussed, simply divided into two roads, from the water early two ways to search, the bandits have fallen hands, can not help but show a little trace. How's it going?"

The master of Ciyun Nunnery said: "What Teacher Wan saw is very true, but tonight we let the thief tease us like this, and we are really unwilling. I see that the green yarn tent in this area is quite extensive, and we will go one more way, if there is a fork in the road nearby, the thief must be running elsewhere. If this is just the way, we should see where the thieves flee, and maybe there will be a place for the thieves to stay. The night was quieter, and the sound spread far away, and there was no strange sound in the vicinity for a long time, and the thief must have gone straight east. If Teacher Wan doesn't take the first step, please wait for him on the red clay slope, and the poor nuns will go back. ”

Wan Liutang saw that the master of Ciyun Nunnery had committed a hundred twists and turns, and he was not too obstructive, so he replied: "Okay! If you can step out of the trail of the bandits, you don't know, the owner of the nunnery, please." ”

The master of Ciyun Nunnery was even more unkind, shrugged his shoulders, and immediately jumped up, as fast as an arrow off the string. Wanliutang is also in a tight body, as fast as an eagle falcon, and the female disciple Xiu Zen also followed the two heroes and went down.

The three masters and apprentices, one after the other, searched the front row, and sure enough, there was no fork in the road. The green trees on both sides were as high as the top of their heads, and after walking for two miles, they saw patches of bean fields and two or three vegetable gardens, all of which were irrigated by well water, and there was no other source of water.

At this time, the master of Ciyun Nunnery slowed down, looked around, and saw that although there was a wide field in front of him, but in the distance, it was still an endless field, and looking east, a hill loomed.

The master of Ciyun Nunnery said: "Teacher Wan, you see that although there are plain vegetable fields outside the four sides, there is still only one way to the east. The black pressure in the distance is about the corner of Liangxing Mountain. Beyond the corner of the mountain, it is the first Han town, we searched this way and found nothing, it is not that the thieves have gone to Liangxing Mountain. Now that we have been pursued here, we will make another journey, and if the thieves flee to this town, we will not be worth the trip. ”

At this time, Wan Liutang also measured that the bandits might have a hiding place in this area, so he replied: "Okay! We simply went to the Liangxing Mountain Pass to investigate, and it is unknown if the thieves may have landed here." ”

The master of Ciyun Nunnery said: "The plains in this area are easy to expose and hide, so it is better to go closely, and after this flat field, it will be okay." ”

Wan Liutang nodded and said yes, female disciples did not dare to say anything about meditation. Wanliutang and the master of Ciyun Nunnery set off for the second time and pursued them eastward. After walking three or four miles away, I saw a high hill behind me, which was the northwest foot of Liangxing Mountain, and the three of them rushed to the foot of the mountain.

Although there are gradually residents in this area, they are not villages, only along the foot of the mountain against the mountain wall, and there are dozens of families scattered and scattered, and they have gone deep into the sleeping township.
