2. The Hunting Conference Chapter 97: Footprints

Ziru said: "What's wrong?"

Mao Feng said: "You come and see." ”

When the two of them looked over, there was only a row of faint footprints on the ground, except for some neat grass roots. Ziru said: "What?"

Mao Feng said: "Footprints." ”

Ziru said: "I saw it, but what's so strange about the footprints." ”

"The footprints themselves are not strange, it's strange that they appear here. Look at the road we walked on, there are traces of shoes?"

The two looked back, and sure enough, there were no traces of trampling where they walked. Canghai said: "By the way, this place is hard and solid, and it is not easy to leave traces, so it seems that it is indeed a little strange." ”

Mao Feng said: "I vaguely saw such footprints appearing earlier, and I didn't think deeply about it at the time. I looked back just now, and I realized that this footprint was unusual. We each carried hundreds of pounds of stone on our backs, and there was no trace in this place, so why would this man step on such a line of footprints?"

Canghai leaned over to check and said, "It seems that this road is the main road, and there are not a few people walking, but there are only the footprints of this one person." ”

Mao Feng said: "Not bad. So, this guy is quite eccentric. Let's follow the footprints and see what the situation is. ”

The footprints have been heading north, and it seems that the destination is also Feihuang Mountain. After walking for about two miles, I saw that the road was broken, the earth and rocks were cracked, and it was a scene of a freshly fought battle. The footprints went straight through the small battlefield, and it didn't seem to stop at all. And what is especially strange is that after the place of the fight, the footprints on the ground seem to be a little deeper, and they appear clearer than before.

The three of them all saw this, and looked at each other, all puzzled. Then he continued to move forward, but where he saw the footprints, there were traces of a fight at intervals, and the sword was burning with fire, and the sword qi was horizontal, even if he did not witness it with his own eyes, he could really feel the fierceness of the battle at that time.

And every time I passed through a place where there was a fight, the footprints deepened by a point, without exception.

Canghai said: "Normally, the higher the cultivation, the lighter the steps. This man seems to be getting heavier and heavier as he walks, which is incomprehensible. ”

Mao Feng groaned: "It has little to do with cultivation. Even ordinary people who have never cultivated will not have such an abnormal phenomenon, unless this person weighs thousands of catties. ”

Canghai compared his hands and said with a wry smile: "For people who weigh thousands of pounds, the footboard will not be so small." ”

Mao Feng said: "Yes, let's not say whether there is such a person in the world, even if there is, the size must be very large, and it can be said that it is the same as a monster." But these footprints are clearly the size of a normal person. ”

Zi Ru said: "And its imprints are getting deeper and deeper, according to this reason, doesn't it mean that this person's weight is constantly increasing along the way?"

Mao Feng said: "How can there be such a strange person in the world! A person who is so strange must be very eye-catching, and it is impossible for there to be no rumors in the imperial city." ”

Canghai said: "It's the same." So, could it be that there is a difference in the leg skills that this person is doing?"

Mao Feng said: "I don't rule out this possibility. It's just that even if your leg skills are good, there's no need to make a big deal about it. What's the point of his deliberate showmanship?"

Canghai shook his head with a wry smile, indicating that he didn't know.

Along the way, those footprints became deeper and deeper. After a few dozen miles, its depth is more than three inches. At first glance, it looks like a pit of soil dug one by one with a shovel. It's just that these pits are always the same size and extremely neat, except for a few places where the fighting field is slightly chaotic, the rest of the time they are all in a straight line, leading straight to the north.

The three of them only looked at it with knotted brows. Canghai aimed at the footprints on the ground and walked step by step. The footprint was a little larger than his, and it was obvious that the other party should be taller and burlier than him.

After stepping on the footsteps for a while, Canghai suddenly thought of something and said: "Where this person passed, there were no less than ten battles of all sizes, and such frequent encounters were probably not a coincidence, but intentional. What is his intention to follow the place where the battle took place like this?"

Ziru said: "Could it be that you are monitoring from behind?"

Wet Wind immediately vetoed it, and said, "Who spends on it will leave such obvious traces." In my opinion, it is not necessarily that he follows the battle, but it may also be the other way around, and the battle follows him. ”

Ziru said: "You mean, the battle happened because of him?"

Mao Feng said: "It's not impossible. ”

Zi Ru said: "Judging from the traces of the battle in front, there are not many people involved, and the trajectory of the footprints is very calm, not like dealing with a strong enemy." Unless ......"

Mao Feng said: "Unless this person is a first-class master, and his cultivation far surpasses his opponents. ”

Speaking of this, the two couldn't help but glance at each other.

Then Ziru was silent.

As if she knew what she was thinking, she said, "If it were him, it would be reasonable to end the battle so calmly." But these footprints still teach people to scratch their heads. ”

Canghai was a little confused and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

Mao Feng looked at Ziru and said, "At present, it's just a guess, I can't tell if it's him or not, after all, this line of footprints is too strange." ”

Canghai scratched his face helplessly, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and shouted: "Ah, I know, he is the Fan Rui you said before, right?"

Mao Feng snorted and said, "It doesn't have to be him." The world is so big, who knows if there will be some hidden masters in the hunting conference that we don't know about. ”

After walking for a few more miles, I saw that the flat ground had been carved out of a dense pile of deep pits, and there were still embers in the scorched earth, and a faint smoke was still rising. This time the battle was more fierce than before, and even the footprints were lost for a while.

The battle line was very long, and the footprints were hidden from time to time, and it looked like a battle in constant motion. After the traces of the fight continued for several hundred meters, the footprints suddenly lost their traces completely, and they could not be found no matter how they were found. Instead, there was a huge trail of dragging.

Ziru said: "Strange, why are the footprints missing?"

Canghai looked at the long trail of drag all the way to the horizon in the distance, thoughtful. Suddenly, there were a few groans nearby, and I followed the sound to find that there was a person lying in one of the pits.

The man was paralyzed at the bottom of the pit, half-dead, unable to climb up, and when he saw someone coming, he showed a look of horror and joy, and said, "Friend...... Friend, please help. ”

Mao Feng carried a knife in his right hand, squatting on the edge of the pit and looking at him coldly. Seeing that he seemed to have bad intentions, the man hurriedly said, "Do you want to have a stone?" I don't have it on me, I don't believe you search for it." ”

Mao Feng said: "There is no need to search. Just like you, there is no reason for others not to rob you. All you have to do is answer who I robbed it. ”

The man said, "I...... I don't know who he is, but he snatched everyone's chuckles. ”

Mao Feng said: "He, what you said about him, is there only one person on the other side?"

The man: "Yes...... Yes. ”

Mao Feng feigned anger and said, "Nonsense, how can one person snatch everyone's stones? There are so many traces at the scene, you and I can't see it?"

The man smiled bitterly, "You're right, but the reason why I pursued him was because he robbed my good friend of the Baht Stone first." ”

Mao Feng said: "Well, so in order to stand up for your friend, you ended up putting your own baht stone into it." ”

The man was a little embarrassed and said, "Exactly." ”

Mao Feng said: "What about the others, they are also for your friends? From Beicheng to here, there are at least thirty small fights, more than a dozen big fights, and there are not hundreds of people, but they can't fight on this scale." Your friend has such a big face, and there are so many people to support him, which palace nobleman's son is it?"

The man said: "Brother Tai laughed, he is not a son-in-law." Nor did all of his pursuers know each other. ”

Mao Feng said: "Since I don't know each other, why can't I get along with others in groups?"

The man said, "Brother Tai, do you really don't know or do you not know?" That man robbed more than a dozen teams in a row in the ruins of the palace, and almost robbed all the stones obtained in that place, and also offended all the people. This incident caused a sensation throughout Shura Island, and now almost all the remaining people are looking for him. ”

Mao Feng was stunned for a while, and said, "That person doesn't tie his hair, has a short beard, and has a small red mark on the corner of his right eye, surnamed Fan, right?"
