"Brother Lou, why are you back again?"

Looking at Lou Jingzhong, whose clothes were wet, Xia Yuxin asked in surprise, Li Shuya was frightened just now, and he didn't get better until he saw Lou Jingzhong's face, and now he was hiding aside, blinking at Lou Jingzhong with curious eyes.

Lou Jingzhong took off his wet coat and spread it on the stones, took out another coat from his backpack and changed it, and replied, "I haven't gone far from Ben, and I've been following you all the time." ”

"Is this anti-tracking?"

Xia Yuxin immediately understood, Fang Shi and Lou Jingzhong played an anti-tracking trick to verify whether there was someone behind him, the danger in front was not so serious, and the serious thing was that there was also in the back, and it was bad if he was hit back and forth.

Fang Shi glanced at Xia Yuxin, but the light of the cold light was too dim, and he couldn't see Xia Yuxin's expression.

"In the scene, have you found anything?"

Lou Jingzhong zipped up his clothes, stretched out his hand to turn off the cold light, and the surroundings fell into darkness at once, the trees covered the starlight in the sky, and the woodland was simply out of sight, but in Fang Shi's eyes, the location of each person was still very clear, and Fang Shi saw the flow of breath, which became more and more clear in this case.

"There were people who did follow us, about two hours away, five people. All male. From the way they dress, they look like local mountain people. I was afraid of startling the snake, so I didn't get close to see who it was. ”

Xia Yuxin exclaimed in a low voice, she really couldn't understand, why would someone here deliberately want to deal with them, could it be that the treasure hunt had been leaked?

Fang Shi pondered for a moment, although he also wanted to capture these guys in one fell swoop, and then interrogate them properly, but after all, this place was unfamiliar. I can't figure out the purpose of these people, the consequences of blindly attacking may be very bad, Fang Shi naturally connected this matter with the ancestral hall of the Li family's old village, perhaps, there are still people coveting this treasure land.

"Where are they now?"

"We passed along our original route, and it just so happened that the group of people in front of us became their target and provided cover for us."

Fang Shi could guess the smug smile on Lou Jingzhong's face, and along the way, Lou Jingzhong deliberately followed the traces left by the other party, the purpose of which was to prevent the people behind from discovering the movements of the group of people in front of him, although Lou Jingzhong didn't know that they were followed by a tail at that time. This is also the experience of the charlatans, and now this experience has successfully deceived the eyes of the stalker.

"The traces of our walk are obviously different from those of those people. Will they be fooled? ”

Xia Yuxin asked with some suspicion, and in the dark, Fang Shi saw her bright eyes.

"It's just suspicious, maybe they will think that we are deliberately trying to hide our tracks, and the rest of them will make up for it themselves, in fact, they have already chased after the traces, and it seems that they want to act overnight."

Fang Shi's brows furrowed, acting overnight? Then the hostility of the other party is too strong, and the situation is a little complicated!

"How many days will our supplies last?"

"Eight days!"

"What if you try to save as much as possible and replenish some food that can be found in the mountains and forests?"

"Fifteen days at most."

Fang Shi thought for a moment: "The situation is a little complicated, we may have to change the original plan, try to check the suspected targets as much as possible, and speed up the exploration, in case the night is long and dreamy." ”

Lou Jingzhong responded, and asked with some suspicion: "Fang Shi, do you think this is an organized action?" ”

"It's hard to say, I'm worried that this is an organized operation, our identities should have been leaked, some people have guessed our purpose, the matter of the Li family ancestral hall may not be a great secret here, but it has not been found yet. There are also quite a few wizarding groups around here, and I can't be sure if they've banded together, so it's better for us to fight quickly. ”

Li Shuya's hair stood on end when he heard this, and at the same time, there was an irrepressible excitement and curiosity in his heart, in the dark, his eyes tried to open wide, trying to see Fang Shi's every expression clearly, and trying to understand as much as possible what they said in their mouths as if it were another world.

"Shall we change our target and get rid of them?"

Xia Yuxin's suggestion was exactly what Fang Shi had originally planned, but now he suddenly had a new idea.

"I think we'll go after them first, and it's better to try to understand their purpose and composition, and now we know so little about it, and it's not good for us."

"That's right, I think so too, I think it's better to divide the troops into two ways, I follow them in front, and you follow me in the back."

"Yes, but don't get too far away, don't take any risks, these people are likely to be wizards, don't be careless."

Lou Jingzhong solemnly responded, and then Fang Shi asked Lou Jingzhong to rest first, because he was about to set off to catch up with those people before dawn, Fang Shi and Xia Yuxin were responsible for taking turns to watch the night, Xie Yuxin chose the first half of the night, Fang Shi and the others got into the tent, Xia Yuxin leaned back against the tent, looking at the dark woodland very nervously.

I didn't feel that someone was talking just now, but now the camp is quiet, completely immersed in the darkness, and there are all kinds of sounds around, which makes people feel a little hairy in their hearts, especially Xia Yu is happy to know that there are enemies around the road, and she is even more suspicious in her heart, and she always feels that the sound of the wind passing through the mountains and forests is like someone sneaking in, and the light spots and black shadows that flicker from time to time in the dark forest make her always feel that someone is coveting it in the dark.

Xia Yuxin suddenly felt that time passed so slowly, she raised her hand from time to time to look at the fluorescent watch on her wrist, feeling that such a long time in a century was actually only half an hour, Xia Yuxin turned her head to look at the tent behind her, gritted her teeth, and turned back to look at the dark woods, carefully observing every unusual movement.

Four hours later, Fang Shi replaced Xia Yuxin, and Xia Yuxin breathed a sigh of relief. Hurry into the tent and rest.

Fang Shi pondered in his mind the Daozang that he would never seem to be able to read. While looking at the breath flowing in the mountains and forests very casually. It is now the second half of the night, and the yin qi has begun to move down the hillside as if it were a flowing mist, calm and smooth, and in the valley part, the yin and evil qi is much thicker, like a great river of breath. Flowing along the valley from high to low, this may be an outward manifestation of the dragon vein.

Fang Shi is the first time to see the movement of the breath of nature so clearly, in the city, the breath of nature is extremely complicated and chaotic, it is not easy to see the scene of natural lifting, seeing this, Fang Shi feels that the monk should indeed stay away from the hustle and bustle, but unfortunately, the human heart can not be far away from the group, maybe you can consider a rotation. This can be a balancing act.

I don't know how long later, there was a movement in the tent behind me. Lou Jingzhong got out of the tent lightly, whispered a few words to Fang Shi, then picked up his backpack and headed towards the dark mountain forest, and disappeared from Fang Shi's sight in a blink of an eye.

There was another sound behind Fang Shi, Fang Shi turned his head to look, it turned out that Li Shuya came out of the tent, and he who slept in a tent with Lou Jingzhong was obviously alarmed by Lou Jingzhong, and he couldn't sleep after waking up, so he wrapped his sleeping bag around his body and got out.

Li Shuya touched Fang Shi and sat down, and after being silent for a while, he asked in a low voice, "Sir, is Uncle Lou also a witch?" What about Sister Yuxin? ”

He was already accustomed to the completely deranged backup Fang Shi in Li Shuya's mouth, and turned his head to look at Li Shuya and said: "In fact, we are considered cultivators, not the same as the Great Witch, the Great Witch is a more primitive profession, the original purpose of the Great Witch is to protect the race, and the cultivator is just pursuing his own evolution." ”

"Cultivator? Taoist priests? ”

"Let's just put it that way."

"Then, are there really ghosts and gods in this world?"

"I don't know, we are also working on this, and there is no conclusion yet. Also, What are the ghosts and gods you are talking about? Do you know it in your own heart? ”

"Ghosts and gods are just very powerful ghosts."

"Hehe, you see, in fact, you regard very powerful things that you don't understand as ghosts and gods, perhaps, the ghosts and gods in your mouth are just some knowledge that we haven't figured out yet, cultivators, just some people who pursue the unknown, no different from scientists."

"Oh, I see, then I understand."

"Don't you think cultivators and great witches are not so terrible?"

Li Shuya thought for a while: "It's still a little scary. ”

Fang Shi smiled and didn't say anything, and after a while, Fang Shi asked again, "Do you blame me for getting you involved in this dangerous matter?" ”

Li Shuya shook his head vigorously: "I volunteered, and I know things that many people don't know." ”

"There will be more and more dangers in the future, aren't you afraid?"

Li Shuya shook his head again: "I'm not afraid, I'm actually a little afraid, but I'm also very curious, I really want to know more Mr. Lu Dao, will I die?" ”

"I can't guarantee this, of course, we will do our best to protect you, at least you will definitely die behind me."

"Then I'll be relieved."

Fang Shi smiled again, Li Shuya was silent for a while, and suddenly plucked up the courage to say, "Sir, do you accept apprentices?" ”

Fang Shi was stunned for a moment, and then grinned silently: "What, you also want to learn the Tao?" ”

"Hmmm! After learning the Tao, it will be very powerful, so that I can go to my parents. ”

"But it takes a lot of time to learn the Tao, and you don't need to learn the Tao, you just need to have normal common sense and knowledge, and you can go to your parents, and your choice is a bit too far."

"Well, actually, I think it's very good at learning the Tao, and I want to learn."

Fang Shi chuckled: "Is it very powerful to learn the Dao?" I think it's very dangerous to learn the Tao, you see that there is danger now, the greater the ability of people, the more things they face, and all kinds of dangers will follow, you can't just see the good side, you can't see the bad side, you still have to think about it carefully, anyway, there is still a lot of time, don't worry. ”

Li Shuya looked up at Fang Shi, but Fang Shi looked at the fragmented starry sky between the canopies, the two of them quieted down, and a gust of mountain wind swept by, like waves passing by. (To be continued......)
