readx;?“ I think maybe someone gave this thing as a treasure to the Luohe clan, so it will be in his hands......"
Jiu Yao seemed to understand the doubts on Lin Yuan's face and explained. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lin Yuan was noncommittal, but he grabbed Jiu Yao's shoulders tightly and said in the warmest voice:
"Sister Yao, this thing is very important, you have helped me a lot!"
Jiu Yao's face turned red again, and her eyes didn't know where to put them.
"That...... Brother Tianci, I heard that you gave an order? Are we going back to Yangzhai City? Then I'm going to go and say goodbye to my sister and Eminem......"
Seeing Lin Yuan nodding in agreement, Jiu Yao hurriedly left.
Lin Yuan looked at the parchment in his hand, thought for a moment, called Hou Yi, and ordered:
"Hou Yi, the last Vulcan badge has been found, right on this map, you go to the patriarch of Jiuqiong and ask her to send me a search team that is most familiar with the surrounding terrain, led by me personally, without further ado, let's set off in the afternoon!"
Hou Yi immediately took the order and left......
……
In the afternoon, a search team composed of several experienced Pangeng huntress was ready to go, and after Lin Yuan showed the map in his hand to several hunters one by one, a hunter finally recognized the terrain represented on the map, she pointed to a high mountain in the northwest direction, and then led the team forward quickly.
Lin Yuan followed in the middle of the team, Hou Yi was at the back of the team, and Jiu Yao led everyone to wave goodbye to Lin Yuan at the back of the camp.
The mountain road is rugged, there is no road here, it is almost coiled on the stone wall, and the team proceeds relatively slowly, but fortunately, several huntress are very familiar with this area, and often remind Lin Yuan Houyi to pay attention to avoiding the rolling stones under his feet, so there are no problems along the way.
After climbing over a few hills, Lin Yuan suddenly felt that there was some business behind him, it was the kind of voice that knew about it......
At first, Lin Yuan thought it was some kind of wild animal or something, but this voice obviously followed behind him all the time......
The team suddenly stopped, and Lin Yuan glanced back and found that Hou Yi was also looking at him with the same frown.
There was another strange sound, followed by the sound of stones sliding, and Hou Yi had already set up his arrows and was ready to go.
A moment later, at the turn of the mountain road, a loud female voice was heard:
"Great Lord, it's okay, it's your own people!"
One of the Pangeng huntress who led the way just now, I don't know when, she actually sneaked around to the back of the team to check the source of the abnormal noise, it seems that they have already discovered the abnormality.
Lin Yuan nodded, and the bow and arrow in Hou Yi's hand loosened.
The huntress had already appeared around the corner, and behind her was a person Lin Yuan was very familiar with, looking at Lin Yuan with a hippie smile.
"Haha...... Lord Yanwang, I'm just testing the strength of this so-called Pangeng clan...... I didn't think it was really powerful...... I'm convinced! Well, I said, can you untie this rope? ”
With an exaggerated expression, Father Kua raised his hands, and Lin Yuan saw that his hands were tightly tied together by the huntress with ropes.
The huntress ignored him, just turned her head to look at Lin Yuan and asked:
"Great Lord, this person has been following us since we set off, do you think this should be handled?"
Lin Yuan smiled secretly in his heart, but he still kept his expressionless face and said:
"Let him go, he's his own."
The huntress nodded, let go of the rope and turned back to the group.
Kuafu rubbed his wrist and said in a pretended exaggerated manner:
"Oops...... This woman is amazing......"
Lin Yuan straightened his face and asked solemnly:
"Okay, Father Kua, tell me why you're here?"
"Hey...... "Father Kua's trademark evil smile was revealed, and he clasped his armpits, and said:
"I slept all morning, I was full of food and drink, I had nothing to do, I saw that the people in the camp were busy migrating, and I couldn't help much, and I saw you mysteriously going up the mountain, and you refused to call me, I was very curious, so I followed......"
Come on, Kuafu grimaced, as if to say: Take me with you.
Lin Yuan sighed, turned to the team and said:
"Then take him with you, everyone hurry up, it's getting dark, we have to get to the place on the map as soon as possible!"
Everyone agreed, and the procession began to march again.
The higher the mountain road climbed, the steeper it became, and the road was arduous, and finally they climbed to a stone cave halfway up the mountainside, and the huntress who led the team looked at the map repeatedly, and finally nodded to Lin Yuan cautiously, indicating that they had arrived at their destination.
Lin Yuan took a closer look at this cave, it was a naturally formed karst cave, the humidity inside was very heavy, and he could hear the sound of dripping water.
Several huntress cautiously walked in, followed by Lin Yuan and Kuafu, and Hou Yi was on guard in the rear with bows and arrows.
The inside of the cave was not big, and when Lin Yuan lit the torch, he could see the bottom of the cave at a glance.
This is a flat cave of about a few hundred square meters, and there are sharp stalactites hanging everywhere, as if they are like fangs in the mouth of a monster, combined with the sound of water droplets from time to time in the cave, which makes people feel inexplicably eerie.
"There's nothing here, empty ......" Father Kua couldn't help but nag in his mouth, Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and waved his hand, signaling him not to make a sound.
Several huntress are seriously investigating, and tracking trails is what they do best.
Suddenly, a whistle came from one of the deepest huntresses, and Lin Yuan and the others hurriedly rushed over with torches.
In the depths of the east side of the cave, the huntress stopped next to a stone pillar, she was bending down to observe at the bottom of the stone pillar, Lin Yuan leaned the torch over, under the light of the fire, it could be clearly seen that there was a circular groove at the bottom of the stone pillar, it was obvious that it was carved by man.
It seems that the Luohe clan called the lame man is not wrong, the map is real, and there is indeed something hidden here.
"Get the contents out." Lin Yuan ordered softly.
The huntress put her hand in, but her complexion changed, and she put it out again, with only some grayish dust on it......
Nothing!
Lin Yuan frowned, and suddenly he heard a loud roar from Hou Yi outside the cave, and then a strong wind struck.
"Be careful!! There are people on the roof of the cave!! ”
Lin Yuan reflexively rolled on the spot, obviously feeling that something was flying behind him, and then the stone pillar in front of him broke in response.
When he stabilized his body and turned to look back, the Pangeng huntress had already scattered in all directions, and they began to throw stone spears at the roof of the cave, launching a counterattack.
Lin Yuan looked at it, and he found that there seemed to be a shadow hidden between the intricate stalactites on the top of the cave, and it seemed that when they came to the cave, there was a person hidden on it, but it was not discovered.
A strong wind blew in from outside the cave, and the torches in Lin Yuan's hands swayed, shining on the shadows inside the cave and swaying around, but the hunters under his command were not affected and began to fight back against the enemy one after another.
The people entrenched on the top of the cave were obviously outnumbered, and after dodging a few stone spear attacks, the opponent quickly fled towards the entrance of the cave.
"Hou Yi! Don't let him run!! ”
Lin Yuan yelled!
Hou Yi, who was guarding the entrance of the cave, was already ready, with a few strong arrows breaking through the air, three serial arrows had been shot, Lin Yuan saw the black shadow shaking on the stone wall at the entrance of the cave with the corner of his eye, it seemed to be an arrow, but unbelievable, this person actually did not pause at all, and after throwing his hand at Hou Yi to shoot a black shadow, he dodged and climbed the stone wall and jumped out.
When Lin Yuan and the others rushed outside the cave, he only saw Hou Yi lying on the ground, rubbing his eyes vigorously with both hands, and a cloud of pitch-black dust appeared around him.
"Poisonous smoke! Get out of there! The captain of the huntress hurriedly stepped forward and helped Hou Yi up.
Lin Yuan frowned and looked around, he saw that at the end of the Dongfang Mountain Road, several stones that had just been kicked down rolled down the cliff.
The man ran away from there!!
Lin Yuan was just about to get up to chase after him, the corner of his eyes flashed, and a figure was already far away, it was Kuafu, but while he was running, he shouted to Lin Yuan in a loud voice:
"I'll chase him, you guys take Hou Yi back quickly! Beware of ambushes!! ”
Lin Yuan nodded silently, turned around and bent down to look at the injured Hou Yi.
Hou Yi's eyes were covered in pitch-black powder, and his face was painful, but he stretched out his right hand and stretched it out in front of Lin Yuan.
Hou Yi was holding something tightly in his hand, it should be that when the person ran away, he panicked and threw it out along with the poisonous smoke bomb.
It was an ancient pottery shard with indistinct text etchings on it.
It was the last Vulcan Badge that Lin Yuan was looking for everywhere---. (To be continued.) )
