Chapter 56: Chasing the Murderer
Ye Xiao listened to Na Lori's story, and there was some faint worry in his heart.
If someone attacked, with Scarlett's cultivation, it would be impossible to lose so quickly and not even leave traces of a fight, and according to this, the attack of ordinary spirit beasts was also ruled out.
"Either there's a super spirit beast lurking around here, or Scarlett was taken away by a college teacher who has cultivated to an advanced level. Most likely, of course, it is a natural trap. Ye Xiao analyzed.
"It's basically impossible for a super strong spirit beast, can it be stronger than Uncle Ben? There is absolutely no possibility of a second in this area. β
Except for Ye Xiao, everyone else just treated him as a joke, and no one cared.
"It can't be too strong a natural trap, otherwise this trial match for first-year students would be meaningless. The teachers at Carlo Academy don't make this kind of mistake. Nasha analyzed.
Ye Xiao nodded, remembering the night he was taken by Kamis to the place where the Gray Chicken was sealed, and he had already seen the powerful elimination traps of nature.
"Since there won't be such a strong way to eliminate the trap, then there is only one possibility left." Ye Xiao stretched out a hand to sign.
"That's that Scarlett didn't go far, and it's probably around us! Her disappearance is just a cover-up, if we really spread out and look around, we will fall into the hands of the other party and be diverted from the mountain. β
After listening to Ye Xiao's analysis, the group of little loli were stunned for a few seconds, and then their eyes lit up like an initiation, and they suddenly showed their admiration for Ye Xiao and gave warm applause.
Ye Xiao closed his eyes, looking like he was enjoying the cheers of the Lori. However, his ears moved slightly, and in the cacophony of applause, he keenly heard a hint of something elseβit seemed like a heavy breath.
Ye Xiao believed that it was not difficult for Yida Gray Rooster and Nasha's perception to hear the words, but they were all attracted by the applause, and they didn't subconsciously listen to other voices at all.
Ye Xiao opened his eyes suddenly, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth. "You dare to take a deep breath when it's noisy, right? Look how Lao Tzu finds out you! β
Ye Xiao raised his hand and quieted down the loli.
"Da Gray Chicken, borrow a fire!"
Although he didn't know why Ye Xiao suddenly behaved so strangely, Da Gray Chicken immediately opened his mouth and spit out a drop of fiery blood, which was caught by Ye Xiao's hand.
Ye Xiao let the blood drip to the tip of his middle finger, pinched it with his thumb and middle finger, violently activated his magic power, and bounced it towards a position in the woods.
Under the influence of Ye Xiao's magic power, the blood droplets saw the wind rise, like a raging fire dragon, enveloping the trees in that direction in flames.
This time, while the fire was burning, both Da Gray Chicken and Nasha also heard some strange noises.
Nasha's eyes widened incredulously, "Ye Xiao, you set fire to the mountain, what if you burn Sister Scarlett?" β
"Don't worry! If he didn't have this measure, he would still be a fart leader? If the other party really wanted to hurt Scarlett, he would have done it a long time ago. Obviously, Scarlett is very important to him, and the other party will do everything to protect her. β
As he spoke, Da Gray Chicken began to admire Ye Xiao's handling and adaptability in his heart. At least he didn't expect how Ye Xiao found out that there was a problem with that direction.
As the flames burned, a tree finally changed. "Whew!"
The tree was like a dexterous animal, skillfully avoiding the flames of the Nine Heavens Emperor Phoenix Fire and quickly shuttling through the jungle.
"Nasha, organize the warriors to stand by in place. Da gray chicken, let's chase! After Ye Xiao gave the order concisely, he rushed in that direction with the gray chicken.
After tracking for about a minute, they came to the shady side of a large mountain and found that the strange tree was missing.
Ye Xiao activated his magic power and carefully searched this place with Da Gray Chicken. That strange tree must have been a repeat of its old tricks, and it was hidden again, otherwise it would never have escaped under the tracking of Ye Xiao and Da Gray Chicken.
"Who?" Just as Ye Xiao was concentrating on studying the traces on the ground, two people suddenly jumped out of the grass.
They looked at Ye Xiao with panicked expressions. "Are you...... Ye Xiao, the leader of the attacking Lori Legion! β
Ye Xiao looked at the two first-grade children wearing red badges, judging from their panicked appearances, they should be the kind of cowards who can only sneak down the path in order to avoid the old students.
"Get out of here!"
Ye Xiao was not in a good mood, not to mention that Scarlett's situation was so urgent, he really didn't have the heart to rob these two guys.
When the two men heard this, they quickly squatted on the spot, hugged the ball and rolled down the mountain.
"Stop!" Ye Xiao saw that the two children were so real, so he asked them to roll and really rolled, and shouted to them again.
The two people stopped their movements and looked at Ye Xiao with a look of horror, not knowing if they were afraid that he would change his mind.
"Did you just see anything strange?" Ye Xiao asked.
The two looked at each other and nodded quickly.
"Captain Ye, we were resting next to us just now, and we did hear the sound of something running over. When I opened my eyes, I noticed a dark shadow running in that direction. It seemed to be a tall spirit beast that startled me. So I wanted to run away quickly, so I made a move and disturbed you, I'm really sorry. β
Ye Xiao looked in the direction they were pointing.
"It's a cold place, and it's suspicious." Da Gray Chicken also nodded.
Ye Xiao was afraid that these two boys would cheat, after all, he was careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, even if he looked honest, he couldn't completely believe it. "You two lead the way, if you dare to lie to me......"
"Don't dare, don't dare." The two quickly shook their heads and decisively took the lead in that direction.
They are timid, but they are not stupid. Since that thing was chased by Ye Xiao and Da Gray Chicken, it was naturally not an intractable danger.
When they got there, they all saw a hole hidden in the grass. The hole leads to the ground, and there is no bottom in sight.
"Alright, you two can go."
The two children hurried down the hill with a thousand thanks.
"Da Gray Chicken, how deep do you think this hole is?"
"It's deep." Da Gray Chicken said seriously.
Ye Xiao thought to himself, isn't what you said nonsense? "You make so much sense."
He grabbed the Grey Chicken and threw it into the hole, accompanied by a series of angry screams.
"You are a bird with wings, and you can't fall to your death. Afraid of a bird? β
After a few seconds, the gray chicken seemed to fall to the ground. "Huh? There was a soft grass underneath. β
Ye Xiao felt very close when he heard the voice of the gray chicken, and knew that this hole didn't seem to be as deep as it seemed from the outside.
What's more, hearing him muttering to himself, there was still soft grass down there, and Ye Xiao jumped down from the entrance of the cave.
"Plop!" After Ye Xiao fell freely for dozens of meters in a little panic, he felt that he had fallen into a puddle of muddy water.
"I'm an asterisk for your uncle! How dare you lie to me, you stupid chicken! β
Ye Xiao was placed by the gray chicken, and was about to catch the stupid bird to pluck the feathers, but suddenly noticed a strange feeling coming from his legs.
