Chapter Ninety-Nine: Progress of the Parties
Separated by a tree of more than a thousand meters, not much bigger than a finger in the field of vision, Li Mei tried her best to narrow the beam of spiritual power and shine towards the tree.
Her progress is very fast, and as the mental force wave narrows, the distance that can be detected is getting farther and farther, and now, the detection range has been extended to more than eight hundred meters, but there is still a considerable distance from the tree.
However, needle beam wave has one disadvantage compared with fan beam wave, that is, the field of view of mental force detection is very narrow, and it is necessary to constantly control the rotation angle of the mental force wave to scan and make up for blind spots.
It is interesting to perceive the world with needle-like beams, which are energy-dense and penetrating, and can even observe the internal structure of the irradiated object.
This was a very interesting thing, and she couldn't help but play with it, and use her mental power to irradiate the small animals hiding in the weeds. Psychic waves easily pierced through their fur, revealing their beating hearts, veins, arteries, and entire circulatory system in her mind.
Suddenly, her whole body paused, and in the air she received a very hidden scattered spiritual force wave, in which people were communicating with each other with their thoughts.
"Great Elder, we found in the congregation of the Coast Patrol that Shen Feiwen, the secretary of the Tax Department of the Governor's Mansion, recently requisitioned a ship from the patrol, although the destination was not announced, but according to the oil and supplies he prepared, it should be going to the First Prison, should we put a few people in."
The words of that strange consciousness made Li Mei's heart a little excited, she didn't expect that there would be news of Li Mu so soon.
The psychic communication fell silent, and it was obvious that the Great Elder was thinking.
"Don't act rashly, don't let your brothers die in vain just to save someone. You don't know how heavily guarded the First Prison is, and with our current strength, it is impossible to save people from it. ”
Anson was at the second energy level like her, if he was young, the Great Elder could easily subdue him because of the advantage of the Heart of a Thousand Lakes and bullet time, but now her strength has decreased due to aging, and she is no longer Anson's opponent.
The Great Elder remembered his husband, and the fates of the grandfather and grandson were so similar. When she was hunted down by the thugs of those industrialists, her husband unfortunately fell into the hands of the enemy. She hid alone and cried for a long time, but she stood up strong and led the Brotherhood to avoid pursuit.
Her son Levi, because of her death, hated her all his life, and never came to see her again after running away from home. I just hope that in the future, Li Mei can understand her difficulties and not hate her.
As a qualified leader, you must give up some ordinary human emotions.
She was a little uncertain in her past memories, but she didn't notice the change in Li Mei's face.
"How's it going, Meimei, do you sense the tree?"
The Great Elder sorted out his mood and asked Li Mei.
She didn't expect that Li Mei's mastery of the Psychic Force Wave had far exceeded her expectations. Because the distance of the other party was too far, she strengthened the power of her spiritual power, but she didn't expect to be received by Li Mei, who was beside her.
"No, it's not close."
Li Mei said in a calm tone, she adjusted her mentality and did not show a trace of abnormality.
"Controlling mental power, emitting different beams, is very demanding on people's talents, you don't want to be too demanding, just practice step by step."
The Great Elder didn't notice anything unusual, and continued to point out the technique.
When the evening came, they hunted a wild wolf for dinner, and after eating it, they went into the tent they had brought to rest. The quality of the old man's sleep was very poor, and the Great Elder had just been lying down for a long time when he suddenly heard a slight rustling sound outside.
"Who?"
She immediately became alert, swept her mental power, and found that it was Li Mei outside.
"Grandma, it's me, I've been practicing all day during the day, and I'm covered in sweat, and I want to scrub it."
Li Mei's voice came in from outside.
"Stay safe, don't go out of my mental vigilance."
The Great Elder didn't think much about it, she set up a mental power guard around her, but when a large unknown creature entered, it would automatically warn her.
Li Mei bowed her head in response, she tightened the Lee Enfield rifle on her back, came to the river, untied the rope tied to the bank, and pushed the boat away from the river bank with a pole.
The boat drifted along the river, and the tents on the bank of the river grew smaller and smaller, gradually disappearing into view. Li Mei resolutely turned her head and stopped looking.
When she knew that she still had a grandmother, the joy in her heart was indescribable. Grandma is not patriarchal like grandma, almost as she imagined in her dreams. She would not let herself get up in the middle of the night to feed the sheep in the barn, nor would she withhold her own food and give it to her brother, nor would she save her own tuition fees to spend on her brother on the grounds that girls do not need to read.
Li Mei understood the Great Elder's distress, knowing that her grandmother was already old, and there was an undercurrent in the brotherhood. It was impossible for her to risk the disintegration of the brotherhood to rescue Li Mu.
Then she would have gone by herself.
Her mother has always told her that to be a girl is to be strong and independent, and she also uses herself as a model, practicing her education, raising Li Mei alone, and never saying that she has to rely on others.
She likes Li Mu very much, not just talking, since she already has a goal, she naturally has to move forward bravely and be a brave knight to save him from prison.
And she also has a plan in her heart, that Shen Feiwen must be a big man in the Governor's Mansion, as long as he is kidnapped, she can coerce the prison to release Li Mu.
The sun rises above the sea level, and the golden light turns the sparkling surface of the river golden. The boats drove slowly along the river and merged into a larger river, and in front of them was the port of New Linfen, where there were more boats on the river, and they were loaded with cotton to be loaded onto the port.
The port of New Linfen is always busy, with many masts and huge cargo ships coming in and out like mountains.
A small, nondescript sailboat is being loaded in port, and a tall gantry crane lifts the container into the hold.
A Hindustan man with curly hair, an open chest, and blackened chest hair was leaning boredly against the railing of the deck, playing with a scimitar. He saw Li Mei gliding by the boat below, and was immediately shocked, and couldn't help but whistle at her.
His whistle did not alarm Li Mei, but rather some monster in the container, and it became agitated and let out a low choked sound. The container swayed in midair, the steel cables above the twist creaked.
"Boom!"
There was a muffled sound, and a large lump protruded from the wall of the container.
"Vajpayee, pacify the holy beast, the stakes are high, I don't want anything to go wrong here."
Umra hurried up from the cabin and shouted with a frown.
"Got it."
Vajpayee reluctantly withdrew his gaze, whistled again, and calmed the monster in the container, and when he wanted to look for Li Mei again, there was no trace of her.
