Chapter 58: Tracking
Jiang Chuan could see that what Old Man Xiao had just performed should be a kind of sonic skill, which was similar to the lion's roar in Shaolin, and was based on the strong inner true qi.
Old Man Xiao's sonic skills don't look weak.
Obviously, when they were in Jining, Old Man Xiao and his daughter Xiao Ran both hid their strength.
From the conversation between the two sides just now, it can be seen that the purpose of their hiding strength is obviously to better hide their identities.
The leader of the Tsing Yi man was not dead, he stood up, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then took out an iron plate from his clothes and looked at it, on which there was a clear footprint.
The iron plate resisted Old Man Xiao's heavy blow for him, but he still suffered serious internal injuries.
Throwing away the iron plate, coughing twice, and spitting out a mouthful of blood, the leader of the Tsing Yi approached.
"It's really amazing, I really underestimated His Royal Highness."
The tone of the leader of the Tsing Yi people seemed calm, but Jiang Chuan heard a little weakness from it.
"You dog-like things deserve to die." Old man Xiao scolded loudly.
The leader smiled without saying a word, and there seemed to be some anticipation in his smile.
"Poof", Old Man Xiao turned over and fell, and fell to the ground.
Mrs. Xiao also fell silently.
Xiao Ran's face turned pale all of a sudden, and she glanced at her parents quickly, but she was still standing in place, the spear in her hand was still aimed at those people in Tsing Yi.
"County Lord, it's getting late, and you're tired." The shrill voice of the leader of the people in Tsing Yi sounded again, mixed with a smug smile or two.
His hand seemed to move.
Jiang Chuan saw that Xiao Ran's originally straight body suddenly shook a few times, and then he also fell to the ground without saying a word.
The situation changed suddenly, and Jiang Chuan couldn't help frowning.
"They must have used two drugs, one airborne and one blood-borne, or both. They themselves take the antidote beforehand. ”
Jiang Chuan quickly guessed the real reason, and he couldn't think that these people had demon magic.
"Childe, what now?" Ji Biao asked in a low voice.
Those people in Tsing Yi had already gone up and started to set up the unconscious family of three.
"You go to the city to find people, and I'll follow them."
Egawa quickly made a decision. The Xiao family must be saved, but they are not rescued alone, these people's skills are not weak, and he is not sure of victory. And it will be very troublesome with a family of three, and one person can't handle it.
"I'll stay." Ji Biao asked in a low voice.
Jiang Chuan knew that he was worried about himself, and it was his duty. Still, he shook his head and stuck with his original decision.
There is not much danger in tracking, and he is confident in himself.
Ji Biao didn't say more, he did his duty and fully respected the authority of his master.
Watching Ji Biao leave quietly, Jiang Chuan hid it very well and continued to look at those people in Tsing Yi.
Those Tsing Yi men suffered many casualties, and the leader was also wounded.
Obviously, they want the three members of the Xiao family who are alive, not three corpses. Therefore, they must find the nearest town to heal the three of them, and the leader of the Tsing Yi people himself must also heal.
In this way, Jiang Chuan has enough time to save people, and of course he will also unlock the secret in this matter.
The Tsing Yi man quietly dug several large pits in the forest, threw the bodies of his comrades who died in the battle, and then buried them. There were no mounds piled up, the ground was level, and even a layer of weeds was covered, as if the people below had never been to this world, leaving no trace.
The man in Tsing Yi sent someone to investigate outside the forest, and then blew a strange whistle that sounded like some kind of birdsong.
A dark shadow crept down from a large tree on the outskirts of the woods, it was their secret sentinel.
The big tree is facing the direction of the official road, and if someone comes over on the official road, the dark sentry will find out as soon as possible.
Jiang Chuan secretly exclaimed that they were lucky, they came out of the mountain, and they happened to be in the blind spot of the dark whistle.
The people in Tsing Yi gathered people and took the Xiao family of three to the south along the official road.
At this time, it was already dark, and there was no one on the official road, and they were not worried about revealing their whereabouts.
Jiang Chuan made a mark on the spot with some rocks and branches, and then quietly followed.
There was a faint excitement in his heart. In the past two years, they have been fighting head-on on the battlefield, although the scene is very large and many people have died, but the exertion of individual force is not significant.
The things in front of him made him find a feeling of a lone ranger in martial arts, as if he was a young chivalrous man who was following a group of wicked people and preparing to do chivalrous deeds, waiting for these wicked people to relax, descend from the sky, show their might, and then save the three members of the Xiao family.
The victim was grateful, and the woman in red admired her, and she planned to make a personal promise in her appreciation.
At that time, do you refuse or not?
As soon as this thought came to him, Jiang Chuan himself laughed first, this kind of thought is too ridiculous and naïve.
He restrained these strange and naïve fantasies, and hid his aura and followed behind the man in Tsing Yi.
The people in Tsing Yi looked very vigilant, and they still maintained their due vigilance.
However, Jiang Chuan has now practiced internal strength, and his feet have become lighter, and he has followed not far away, without being noticed by anyone.
After walking for more than an hour, the people in Tsing Yi took the three members of the Xiao family into a small town.
At night, the town is not as cold as Jiang Chuan imagined, but it looks lit up and various sounds come from the shops on both sides of the street.
The Tsing Yi people bought a few carts from the town's carriage and horse dealers, and after wearing their clothes backwards, they turned into a group of foot merchants.
The three members of the Xiao family were packed into boxes and became their "goods." ”
They stayed at the only inn in town and asked for a separate cross-courtyard.
Opposite the inn is a restaurant, which is still brightly lit and full of people.
Jiang Chuan looked at it and walked into the restaurant.
It is said that it is a restaurant, but it is not accurate. On the first floor is the lobby, where some merchants with weathered faces are sitting. Some people are silently drinking and eating alone, and some people are shouting and bragging.
The second floor is a high-end private room, which is nothing more than adding some wooden blocks.
On the third floor, there was a woman's voice, and all kinds of languishing prodigies came from time to time, it was a prostitute pretending to flirt with the prostitutes, and pour out her thoughts in an exaggerated tone. The prostitutes were impatient, and they hugged the person they had chosen and went straight to the subject.
I didn't expect such a small town and such a small building to be a one-stop service, and if it is paired with a casino, it is estimated that it will be complete.
Jiang Chuan thought in his heart, walked up to the second floor, and asked for a private room by the window, where he could see the door of the inn.
After ordering the food, the shopkeeper looked speechless, as if he was going to recommend their upstairs service to Jiang Chuan. It's just that when he saw Jiang Chuan's appearance, he didn't dare to speak.
Jiang Chuan's experience in walking the rivers and lakes is not sufficient, and it is even far worse than Bai Jinxiu, and he looks a little unclear when he looks at the shopkeeper.
"Questions?" Jiang Chuan frowned and looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper also seemed to realize that this boy should not look down on the vulgar fans upstairs, so he hurriedly smiled humbly and retreated.
The meal came up, and Jiang Chuan ate it slowly and methodically, while looking at the inn gate opposite.
Someone came out, although his face was not clear under the light, Jiang Chuan could see from his body that the person should be one of the people in Tsing Yi.
When they walk, they always subconsciously stick to the root of the wall, and the right hand is placed on the waist intentionally or unintentionally.
