Chapter 777: The Vanishing Spirit
Dusk is approaching, and to the west of the fertile soil of Kawaseira, the orange-red sunset slowly sinks towards the horizon. Walking in a small forest, Lu Ping's group made a series of gurgling sounds from their stomachs one after another.
The four of them stopped, you look at me, I look at you, and then look around.
"If you're hungry, why do you want to die?" said Morin.
"There doesn't seem to be much to eat here. Fang Yijing said after looking around.
Along the way, they hunted for food. Because I walked in the mountains and wilderness that were inaccessible, I didn't feel anything inconvenient. But when you enter the border of the river flats, this foraging method becomes embarrassing. There is not much wilderness left in the Kabihira area, and the population is widely and densely distributed, leaving animals with a desperate lack of living space. At the moment, a few people are hiding and walking in a small forest next to the road, and the neat arrangement of the trees looks like it is artificially cultivated, and there is no game living in this forest.
"Look there. Lu Ping stretched out his hand and pointed. On the treetops above, a few unknown birds rested on the branches, and Lu Ping regarded the delicious meal on his plate, which was already eager to try.
"No hurry, no hurry. If you punch out, you will have to pay attention to it for several miles. Mo Lin hurriedly pressed Lu Ping's outstretched hand down.
"I'll do it. Fang Yizhu said, approached lightly, looked at the branches, suddenly raised his hand, and there were four consecutive sounds, four birds had fallen, and the remaining two or three flew away in shock, which was not any movement.
"Not bad. Just one for each person. Morin exclaimed, and ran up to pick up the four birds.
"Let's find a lot of land and clean it up. Fang Yizhu said.
"There's the sound of water over here. Lu Ping pointed in a direction.
"Let's see. Fang Yizhu said and went in the direction pointed by Lu Ping, and the other three followed. They had long since paid attention to where the three or two birds that had been scared away when they had been hunting birds had flown away.
The four of them walked to the edge of the grove, and sure enough, they saw a stream that was neither wide nor deep passing through the edge of the forest. Mo Lin stopped the three people who were about to go out, looked like a professional and insider, and observed the neighborhood for a few minutes, before turning around and nodding slightly at the three people.
No one laughed at Mo Lin for being careful, and a few people immediately began to divide their work when they got out of the woods: Lu Ping picked up wood and set up a fire, Fang Yizhu cleaned up a few birds, Ling Ziyan went to the stream to get water, and Mo Lin continued to pay vigilantly to the left and right - a village could be seen in the upstream direction of the stream, but it was quite far away, and Mo Lin paid attention for a long time, and never saw anyone coming this way.
After a while, everyone was busy, the plucked and washed birds had been put on the fire, and the smell of meat wafted up, and Morin finally relaxed his vigilance and came over with his saliva.
"I bet you're looking at which one is the biggest. Fang Yizhu said.
". Maureen dismissed it, "See if you can do it accurately? ”
"Then guess the bone or the meat, which will be heavier?" Fang Yizhu said.
"I don't guess! I won't bet you! You can go wash your hands. Maureen had a fed up look on his face.
Ling Ziyan, who was cooking bird meat, lowered her head and smiled silently, and the helpless Fang Yizhu only walked towards the river, but saw Lu Ping, who had just finished washing his hands, standing by the river, looking at the clear stream in a daze.
"What are you looking at?" Fang Yizhu immediately came up. Although chatting with Lu Ping would be a little boring, it was better than Morin's attitude towards him now.
"There seems to be someone underneath the water. Lu Ping said, pointing to the water he was looking at.
"What are you kidding?" Fang Yizhu didn't immediately notice. The water of this stream is so shallow that it probably does not reach people's feet and necks, and the sand and gravel at the bottom of the water can be seen at a glance, and there is not even a small fish. Where are people hiding?
It is precisely because of this that Lu Ping himself is not very convinced. But he really felt the sound of the power of the spirit coming from the bottom of the water, which had a similar rhythm to the flow of the stream.
After Fang Yizhu saw the uncertain, but by no means child's play on Lu Ping's face, he immediately became solemn. He is much more knowledgeable than Lu Ping, such shallow water seems impossible to hide, but the cultivator's abilities are varied, even the Zhou family of Nantian Academy, who has a lot of knowledge of the past and the present, does not dare to say that they have seen all the abilities in the world, and it is not known what means there is really to hide under this shallow cement sand.
"Are you sure you sensed it?" and it's still there?" Fang Yizhu said hurriedly.
Lu Ping nodded.
"That's nonsense, hit it directly!" Fang Yizhu shouted as he swept backwards.
Lu Ping raised his fist and was about to swing it, when it suddenly stopped in mid-air.
"What's the matter?" Fang Yizhu, who was already a few positions behind him, hurriedly asked, and Mo Lin and Ling Ziyan over there also hurriedly came up.
"It's gone again. Lu Ping turned around and said in confusion.
Several people looked at each other, and suddenly, Morin swept backwards with an arrow step.
The other three were all startled, and then they saw that Morin had turned and threw himself into the fire, grabbing the bird that seemed to be the largest among them, and at the same time turned back and glanced at the three of them very warily.
"Is Lu Ping such a boring person?" Fang Yizhu looked helpless.
"Lu Ping won't, but you're suspicious. Morin had already grasped the largest one in his hand, and then said with some relaxation.
Fang Yizhu ignored him, turned his head to look at Lu Ping, and saw Lu Ping shake his head. He made several more confirmations, and the sound of the power of the spirit that had been at the bottom of the river was really not perceptible at all.
"Just in case, let's get out of here quickly. Fang Yizhu said, and Lu Ping nodded.
"Are you two really fake?" Morin had already eaten at this time, and looking at the expressions of the two, he finally believed that this was not a trick to fight for food, but a real situation.
"Eat as you go. Fang Yizhu said. Here, Ling Ziyan had already taken the other three birds and gave one to Lu Ping and Fang Yizhu, but she herself left the youngest one.
"Look at the people. Fang Yizhu glared at Mo Lin.
"When the bird is cooked, it seems to have become very small...... "Morin has already eaten three times and five divided by two, and is crying out for his unfilled stomach.
No one paid attention to him, the three of them had already walked towards the grove while eating, and Mo Lin, who was at the end, was really not a blind foodie, and after quickly processing the various traces left by the four of them here, he followed up with the woods.
Night falls early in the morning, and the grove is especially dark. There was silence on the one side, and the four of them walked in the forest, and the sound of stepping on broken branches and dead leaves suddenly became noisy.
The sound uneasy for Morin, who hastened a few steps to the side of the group.
"What the hell was going on before?" he asked.
"At the bottom of the river I started listening to the sound of the mighty force, but then suddenly it was gone. Lu Ping said. He no longer suspected that it was someone, if it was, how could it disappear so cleanly and completely in that instant?
"What do you think is the means?" asked Maureen Xiang Yizhu. Although he despises this person very much, after dealing with him during this time, he knows that Fang Yizhu still has some insight and experience.
"I think some kind of ability fell there. Fang Yizhu said.
"What a coincidence that just found out that this custom was over?" Morin said. The only abilities that can keep their strength running after they are out of the cultivator's control are customization.
"If it's not a coincidence, then it's troublesome. It shows that the other party sensed the exposure and took the initiative to stop the ability. Fang Yizhu said, "That place, we all started on a temporary basis, and it is impossible for the other party to arrange it there in advance." So, our actions have been targeted early in the morning!"
Although he likes to raise the bar with Fang Yizhu, so he is quite confident in his ability, but Mo Lin has to admit that Fang Yizhu's analysis is very reasonable. It is really very likely that the other party still found their whereabouts under his careful guard.
Who is it?
By what means?
Where is it now?
Maureen looked around, and all he could see was the mottled shadows of trees in the darkness.
