After discovering those traces, Jiang Liu followed them very carefully. She didn't miss any clues, she kept a close eye on the bushes on both sides of the road, as long as there were broken or crooked branches, or there was an abnormality in the ground somewhere, she would stop and check carefully, and every once in a while, she would unfold her body and jump on the trees above her head to check the trails, but fortunately this time the trail was not lost. Although they had been lost for a while, two hours later she found footprints on one of the largest branches by the side of the road, and some blood stains on the trunk.

Then, the trail never broke, and she was completely sure that it was indeed the trace of two people, and she couldn't guess why there was blood.

But now, seeing the sky turn dark and the sun set behind the mountains, she began to worry. When she was tracking, she was worried that she would be lost, so the speed was always very fast, Li Shun and Fang Qing did not cultivate, although the two tried their best, they still repeatedly fell behind, and now they are even more tired, Li Shun's big man seems to step down, hanging his two arms;

Fang Qing's forehead was always sweating and wiping, and now the whole thing was red. Now that they were at least two hundred meters behind him, Jiang Liu had to stop and wait for them.

By this time it was evening, and the front was beginning to open up, and not far away there was a small isolated rocky mountain, which looked a little gloomy in the twilight.

Jiang Liu decided to find a place to hide there, let them wait there for the time being, and then come back to pick them up when they were done, Jiang Liu knew that if they said it clearly, they would definitely not want to, she could only leave quietly at night, although this was the outer layer of the Fengxin Forest, they also had experience in hunting fierce beasts when they were in Jiangcun, but at that time, the fierce beasts in the outer layer of the Fengxin Forest were all relatively low-level, and recently, for some reason, there were high-level fierce beasts here that only appeared in the middle level, if they encountered it, they would definitely die. So if they fall behind, Jiang Liu may not be able to save them in time.

She waited twenty minutes before the two of them caught up. Li Shun sat on the ground with his buttocks, and then lay down: "Hey, I can't walk, I really can't walk, Jiang Liu, why are you running so fast, we can't catch up with you even if we try our best."

Fang Qing also lay down, resting his bald head on Li Shun's stomach, and said: "Spotted, Jiang Liu, you pretend to be a man all day long, I didn't expect you to be so strong, much stronger than us men, you haven't even sweated a little after walking for so long, sure enough, sure enough, it's a spot, you still have to cultivate!"

Li Shun raised his eyes to look at Jiang Liu, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and said, "Jiang Liu, you must supervise us well, and when we become strong in cultivation, we won't drag you down anymore!"

Jiang Liu sighed silently in his heart, and told them to hold on for a while, and rest at that stone mountain tonight before setting off tomorrow morning.

Hearing that the two of them struggled to get up, they supported each other, Li Shun said: "You can't rest, what if you chase it and lose it, then Yang Tianxiao will not only suffer if you escape, but also the rest of the Jiangcun will suffer!"

"It's not realistic to chase at night," Jiang Liu said, "and you can't see any traces at night, and if you want to chase it, you will chase in the wrong direction." ”

Wait until you come to the stone mountain, heavens

It's all black. This small stone mountain is indeed completely made of stones, large and small stones overlap together, there are dark shadows everywhere in the evening twilight, the stone mountain is bare, there is not a single plant, Jiang Liu is a little worried about whether it is safe here, so let them rest, she unfolded her body, quickly up and down on this stone mountain, left and right to check a circle, the afterimage jumped everywhere on the mountain, using the high-level body method taught to her by her father, and after confirming that there was no danger, she decided to rest here.

She took them to a place halfway up the mountain where there were boulders on both sides and the other side against the mountain wall, and told them to rest here tonight, Li Shun and Fang Qing immediately lay on the ground, they were indeed too tired, taking advantage of the gap between the two of them ridiculing each other, Jiang Liu picked up a lot of dry firewood on the mountain and came back, lit a fire, and barbecued the meat of the wolf beast that he fought last time.

By the time they had eaten the flesh of the fragrant wolfbeast, a few stars had appeared in the cloudless sky. Fang Qing laughed and said: "Hehe, a spotted, I said Brother Li Shun, there is such a beautiful woman serving us, it is indeed worth it to come out this time, even if you die, hahahaha!"

Li Shun squeaked twice and said, "Don't say anything about not dying, unlucky, you want to die, I don't want to die yet!"

Fang Qing said with a smile: "Jiang Liu, why do you always dress up as a gentleman like you, why don't you go to the side and change into women's clothes, we promise not to peek!"

Jiang Liu only felt a fever on his face, picked up a small stone on the ground, threw it at Fang Qing, and scolded: "You can't stop your mouth when you eat, don't talk nonsense!"

Fang Qing touched his head and said, "Spotted, Brother Li Shun, you still like Jiang Liu, if you marry her home in the future, I guarantee that your braincase will bloom early!"

This time it was Li Shun's turn to blush, and after a long time, he said: "Fang Qing, don't talk nonsense, what Jiang Liu likes is Senior Brother Yi Feng, I shouldn't be a toad, Jiang Liu's cultivation is profound, I'm just a hillbilly, I don't know anything, how can I be worthy of her, how can I climb high?"

Jiang Liu couldn't help but be a little angry when he heard Yi Feng mention Yi Feng and heard Li Shun say such self-defeating words, and said, "You two don't have a shapeless thing, just eat well, don't talk nonsense!"

When the two of them saw that she was angry, they didn't dare to say any more, the atmosphere became awkward, Jiang Liu felt embarrassed, she said, "You two hurry up and rest after eating, I'll go to the top of the mountain to have a look." ”

Jiang Liu went around to the boulder, ran his body, and after a few ups and downs, he had come to the top of the mountain. She looked at the direction of her home from afar, under the starry sky, there was only an extension of the inky black forest, occasionally a few peaks rose from the forest, and there were only some black shadows at night, Li Shun's words made her miss her senior brother Yi Fenglai, "What I like is Sisi, my love for you is another" Senior brother's words are still in her ears, making her heart cramp, maybe, maybe, she cares about Saruo's life so much, and there are also reasons for hoping that Saruo and Sisi can be together, and there are also reasons for hoping that Senior Brother can't get what he wants

The sky on the right suddenly flashed with colorful light, rippling in the air like a layer of silk, Jiang Liu knew that it was the barrier between the middle and outer layers of the Fengxin Forest, and it would appear sometimes

, Most of the time it will be hidden in the air, legend has it that the Fengxin Forest is divided into three layers: inner, middle and outside, one layer is more dangerous than the other, at this time Jiang Liu really hopes that she is in the most dangerous inner layer, she really wants to know if she is in danger, Senior Brother Yi Feng will not risk his life for himself.

Li Shun's feelings for her, how could she not know, it's just, it's just that she really doesn't feel for Li Shun, she keeps telling herself that she doesn't like him because Li Shun doesn't have the strength, but in the past two days, in fact, his lack of strength is also one of the main reasons why she doesn't like him, she is very confused because of this, is strength the main factor in evaluating a person?

Jiang Liu shook her head vigorously, she couldn't think of things clearly, she was still used to not thinking about it, maybe after a while, the answers to some questions would automatically emerge.

After a little longer, when she was sure that the awkward atmosphere between the three of them had disappeared, she decided to go down the mountain, believing that they were asleep now, and that if she stayed a little longer, she should leave them, and when she came down, she no longer used her body, but slowly descended along the path between the stones.

It was half an hour before she reached the resting place, and she found another man sitting quietly beside the orange fire, not resting.

It was Li Shun, Jiang Liu was still a little embarrassed, she said: "Brother Li Shun, you have been on the road for a day today, so let's hurry up and rest, and we will continue to rush tomorrow." ”

Li Shun turned around and said, "Jiang Liu, don't run around blindly at night, in this Fengxin Forest, if you encounter any danger, Li Shun and I have no ability to save you, what can we do then?"

Jiang Liu was secretly moved, and said: "No, Brother Li Shun, I have investigated it here, and it is very safe!"

Fang Qing was already snoring from sleep, the flames were gradually extinguished, Li Shun added some dry firewood, and the flames burned again.

"Jiang Liu," he said, "are we really dragging you down? If we hadn't been with you, you might have tracked you farther, maybe you'd have caught up long ago." ”

Jiang Liu was stunned, although Li Shun usually looked shy, but nothing could escape his eyes, Jiang Liu didn't know how to answer.

Li Shun said again: "Jiang Liu, are we too stupid, are we as powerful as Yi Feng and Sa Ruo who will never be able to cultivate?"

Jiang Liu didn't know why she was lying, she heard herself say: "No, as long as you work hard, you will definitely be as powerful as senior brothers and them one day, have you heard that sentence, it is called hard work pays off." ”

After Li Shun listened to the answer, he went to rest with confidence, he originally planned to cultivate for a while longer, but Jiang Liu told him that if he wanted to hurry, he would not be able to reach it.

When Li Shun also snored, Jiang Liu took out a pen and paper and began to write a letter: Brother Li Shun, Brother Fang Qing, you are waiting for me here, it's not that you are dragging me down, it's just that I don't want you to be so tired of following me After the conversation with Li Shun, it seems that writing everything seems to be deceiving them, Jiang Liu didn't put pen to paper, and finally only wrote:

Two brothers, you wait for me here, don't run around, I will come back to meet you when I find Yang Tianxiao, they should not be far ahead, and it won't be too long.
