Although Baoyu is not familiar with the terrain in this area, he can sketch a clear outline in the Yuan Shen with the route he has walked under his feet, and although he is in the mountains, forests and wilderness, he can also judge the accurate direction, and he can directly pass back to Shuangliu Village, thanks to his cultivation skills in the strange small world of Taihao Ruins.

Although Baoyu is not a mountain god, as long as he has already walked, he will not be lost again. But he didn't go straight to Shuangliu Village, but went a little bit away from the downstream direction of Baixi.

Before noon, Baoyu walked out of a mountain forest, blocked by a river in front of him. The river is very fast, the river is very wide, and it does not freeze in winter, which is the Shuangxi formed by the confluence of Qingxi and Baixi. Baoyu took Xiaotian and walked downstream along the shore, and the captain took the lead in chasing after him through the forest.

After a while, the deputy captain and the other warriors chased after each other to the stream, saw the footprints on the snow, and continued to chase after them breathlessly. At this time, the army formation had completely dispersed, and the front and rear had opened up a long distance.

Sungai flows through the mountains and jungles, and the river is sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, with a section running between the two mountains. The waves are churning, the cliffs on both sides are towering, and the distance between the high cliffs is about four zhang wide at the narrowest point. The captain watched as Baoyu and the dog leaped and jumped across Sungai to the other side.

When he caught up with the high cliff, he saw Baoyu turn around and look at this side with a smile, and the dog barked a few times. The captain's blood was already surging at the moment, he turned and ran to the heights, and then accelerated to run down, jumping over the cliff with all his might. Baoyu saw the captain coming. Then he turned and walked on, while the captain followed closely behind.

Wait until the deputy captain and other fighters chase to the edge of the cliff one after another and assemble. Everyone was dumbfounded, because the footprints they had tracked disappeared here. Someone studied the footprints on the ground again, and found that the captain ran to a high place and rushed down, apparently jumping to the opposite bank.

Everyone ran a little weak legs, but they were not sure that they could jump over, so some people suggested cutting bamboo to make poles, and some people suggested cutting trees to build bridges, anyway, the distance of four zhang wide was not difficult to solve. After they were busy for a long time, they finally crossed Sungai. The captain and Baoyu have long since gone a long way.

......

It was past noon, and Baoyu stopped, and turned to look at the place where he had come, because the captain finally stopped chasing, and Baoyu walked back with Xiaotian.

I saw the sturdy man sitting on the ground, panting with a longbow in his hand. This person has not only practiced the strength of the mountain but also cultivated the martial arts, and his body has experienced unimaginable hardships. Speed and endurance are amazing. But he ran at high speed for so long, and finally he was tired.

The captain suddenly realized one thing, Baoyu walked downstream along Shuangxi, in fact, he had already bypassed Shuangliu Village, and when he crossed Shuangxi and then moved forward, he looked at the direction and planned to go straight to Feihong City. I saw Baoyu turn around and walk. He realized again that at this time yesterday, he led an entire army formation to chase him out of Shuangliu Village, and at this moment, he was the only one left.

The captain looked very nervous, holding a longbow in his hand and shouting, "This descendant." What the hell do you want to do?" but he didn't get up, because he was too tired to move. Of course, there is no bow and arrows.

Baoyu walked closer, looked at him and asked, "It's obvious that you're chasing me all the way, but it's not me chasing you." Instead, you ask me what I want to do? There's no one else here, you can't run anyway, we can finally sit down and talk. You're Mura Bao, the captain of the third team of the Flying Rainbow City Garrison Formation, right?"

If you want to speak well, it is originally an unlikely thing, because the military array will carry out the order when it receives it, and no matter what Baoyu says, it will take him down on the spot. But Baoyu didn't do anything else, only used the simplest method, let the army carry out the order, and chased after him for a whole day, he didn't need to do anything more, and he could naturally sit and talk at this moment.

This method is very stupid, and at the same time it is wonderful, and it must have absolute strength as a guarantee, but no matter how you look at it like a child's chase game, I am afraid that another master will not do this.

The captain was taken aback when he heard this: "Have we met, how do you know me?"

Baoyu smiled and replied, "Well, I'm not mistaken, you are really the village treasure! Yesterday's chasing method is just that, although the loss is large, there is no problem with a good rest. But today, you have chased all the way, and you have exceeded the limits of your physique, so that you can't move even if you want to. Excessive use of the power of Kaishan may leave hidden dangers of internal injury. ”

As he spoke, he took out a small piece of dark red from his bosom and gently crushed it with the three fingers of his right hand, which immediately turned into a piece of powder. The powder did not fall to the ground, but was controlled by mana and floated in front of him, like a dark red cloud of smoke. He added: "There are some elixirs here, which are very suitable for the treatment of internal damage. You may not be hurt, but it's better to be careful. ”

Then Baoyu flicked his fingers again, and the wisp of smoke drifted towards the door of the village treasure. Murabao couldn't hide if he wanted to, he had already smelled a strange aroma, and suddenly felt refreshed, and even the fatigue of body and mind seemed to have been eliminated a lot, and he already guessed in his heart that this was some kind of valuable elixir, and listened to Baoyu's instructions: "Open your mouth and inhale, mix it with saliva in your mouth and swallow it, and naturally regulate your breath." ”

Although Murabao felt nervous, he was not afraid. He had already seen Baoyu's appearance face to face, and the other party did not have the slightest ferociousness, and he was clearly a childish teenager. With his kung fu, he was already tired, but the young man walked calmly, and he didn't even breathe, but because of the long distance and fast running, his face was slightly red, and there was a little fine sweat on his forehead.

If Baoyu wanted to be unfavorable to him, there was no need to poison this obviously precious elixir, just do it. And if Baoyu really wanted to do something with him, he didn't have to wait until now, the time he jumped over Sungai was the perfect opportunity.

Even if Murabao is a fool, he already understands at this moment that Baoyu deliberately led the military array out of Shuangliu Village, and also deliberately led him to this place, of course, he has something to say, and it doesn't look like there is any malicious intent. If Baoyu really wanted to escape, he would have gone far away, and it would be impossible for the army to catch up.

Murabao has a straightforward temper and is hot-blooded and impulsive, but he is not stupid. Last night, Baoyu had beaten a roe deer to feed the sergeants, and the captain had already felt that something was wrong with the pursuit. He wanted to ask Baoyu about it, but unfortunately there was no suitable opportunity.

Seeing Baoyu casting a wisp of cloud smoke drifting towards his mouth and nose, Mura Bao didn't want to lose his heroic spirit, regardless of whether it was poisonous or not, he didn't even frown, he opened his mouth and inhaled the elixir, and instantly felt a wisp of strange fragrance penetrate his heart and spleen, and his mouth naturally swallowed it.

Baoyu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, that's it, you don't have to deliberately exercise, just breathe naturally, and we can talk slowly." ”

Murabao's tone softened a lot when he spoke again, and he asked in surprise, "What kind of elixir did you give me?

Baoyu sat down across from him and replied unhurriedly, "It's just some medicine to regulate injuries, which are beneficial to you, so you don't need to ask more." ...... I've heard Lingbao Zhuangshi mention that his brother is the captain of the third team of the Flying Rainbow City. And you look a little like him, so I shouldn't be mistaken. ”

Mura Bao was taken aback again: "You know my brother, what is the relationship with him?"

Baoyu: "I and Lingbao Zhuangshi can be said to be friends of life and death. ”

Mura Bao was stunned and said, "I heard that you may be a murderer related to Liukou, how can Lingbao make friends with you?"

Baoyu was angry and funny: "Who did you listen to, can you believe this? Not only am I not a rogue, but just a few days ago, I fought side by side with Lingbao Zhuangshi in Baixi Village and killed a rogue. ”

I don't know if it's because I've taken the elixir, or if I've taken a breath, but Mura Bao, who was too tired to stand up just now, suddenly jumped up and shouted: "What do you say, there are really rogues who went to ransack Baixi Village!

Baoyu waved his hand and said, "Sit down and speak slowly, don't worry, the Lingbao strong man is fine." It's a pity that his friend Shi Yu, as well as two monks from Feihong City, Beixi and Yunxi, were all killed on the battlefield. Just now you said that I might be a murderer related to the Liukou, why is it my turn to mention that there are Liukou attacking Baixi Village, and you are so surprised?"

Mura Bao slowly sat back on the ground again, and opened his mouth wide for a long time without speaking, because what Baoyu said was really shocking! When he came back to his senses, he shouted in a low voice: "This is impossible, how can there be such a powerful rogue in the vicinity? Even if a large number of strong gangsters are circulating here, it is impossible not to have a little wind in advance, let alone kill so many masters who have been prepared for a long time!"

Baoyu: "It's not impossible, in the autumn of two years ago, there was a village in Feihong City that was slaughtered, you should know about it, and the perpetrators at that time were the same group of people as today's rogues." The Lingbao Zhuangshi once rushed back to the city and invited the master to Baixi Village to help, you should be in the city, didn't he mention it to you?"

Murabao's head was already a little dazed, and he replied in a daze: "Lingbao mentioned it to me, someone heard the conversation of the demon clan when he passed by Baixi Village, and said that the leather armor people were going to go to the village with the demon clan to grab food. I have also been to Baixi Village during my quarterly rounds and know what is going on there. There is a Mountain Paste Clan in the deep mountains nearby, and Baixi Village treats the Mountain Paste Clan very badly, and it is normal for conflicts to occur.

At the time, I thought that it was just that the demon clan wanted to trouble Baixi Village, and let out words to scare them, there was no need to make a fuss, Feihong City has been very peaceful in recent years, where are there any rogues? It's just a conflict between the tribes in the countryside, Lingbao has already brought several masters to go, there should be no problem, and I didn't care too much. I can't believe that masters like Nord Stream and Yunxi will die in battle!"

Baoyu asked rhetorically: "How can you say that there are still any rogues? Have you forgotten the bloody cases of three years ago and two years ago? That must have been the work of powerful murderers, and if the murderers were not rogues, who would they be?"

Mura Bao replied honestly: "The bloody case you mentioned three years ago should refer to the attack and killing incident that occurred in Gaocheng, it was a targeted vendetta, it should be committed by the enemies of those three families, it is not like a rogue act that committed crimes everywhere, and it happened in Gaocheng, Feihong City did not send people to investigate."

As for the case that occurred in Feihong City two years ago and the village was slaughtered, Chengkuo sent a military array to investigate, but no clues were found. At that time, the lord of the city reported to the national capital, and a national worker with the cultivation of the six realms came, and he flew to the sky with an artifact to inspect the mountains and rivers in the territory, and he did not find the slightest. Because of this incident, the city lords of Feihong City were all replaced.

Even if there were rogues who committed crimes in those years, they would not have been able to stay in one place for a long time, and they should have left as soon as they succeeded, otherwise how could they not have found out? In the past two years, there have been peaceful incidents, but there have been occasional clashes between the tribes in the countryside, and they often threaten or curse each other that they will be sacked by the bandits, and rumors have spread everywhere, all of which are untrue. ”

Baoyu nodded slightly and said, "I see, so you didn't care too much." Since Lingbao mentioned this to you, have you told anyone else, especially the Master of Flying Rainbow City?"

Murabao: "What did I tell Master Soldier to do? I know that Lingbao is good at heroic deeds, anyway, he has invited so many masters, so he will let him toss, and he has not told anyone else." ”

Baoyu let out a sigh and said, "No wonder!"

Mura Bao wondered, "What's the wonder?"

Baoyu replied: "No wonder that gang of rogues didn't know that the news had leaked out in advance, and no wonder the military division actually transferred the army formation led by you to Shuangliu Village to block me." ”

Mura Bao asked rhetorically: "Why do you say this? Recently, it happened to be the turn of the third team to be on standby, and the master soldier sent someone to give orders. He transferred us to Shuangliu Village. ”

Baoyu: "Please tell me in what name did Master Soldier give the order, and why did you pursue me again?" Why did you get involved with me again?"

When Cun Bao led the army to leave Feihong City, he didn't see the soldier Yan Lingzhu himself, he just received an order from Yan Lingzhu to rush to Shuangliu Village to guard. At that time, Yan Lingzhu was not in the city, and he had left two days ago, and it was said that he had lost the news of the sudden loss of the first team of the military formation of Feihong City.

Nong Neng led the army into the winter to patrol the city, and was supposed to arrive at a village called Shang'an Village for the night, and Shang'an Village was ready early that day. But he didn't wait for the military formation. Coincidentally, if Baoyu had been walking along the road yesterday and had not turned into the mountains and back, he would have reached Shang'an Village ahead.

It is possible that the military formation was delayed on the road, so it did not arrive at Shang'an Village on time, although this is an uncommon situation, but it is not impossible. Shang'an Village was not particularly surprised at the time. But until the first day, before the military formation arrived, the patriarch of Shang'an Village felt strange.

Because according to the original arrangement, the military array's dinner yesterday should have been eaten in Shang'an Village, and the patriarch had ordered people to prepare it before dark yesterday, but it was time for breakfast today. There was no shadow of the military formation, and the patriarch didn't know whether to continue preparing food. There is enough food for more than 50 strong men to eat, and the preparations are all good things that are usually difficult to eat, and they can't be wasted!

So the patriarch of Shang'an Village sent people along the road to meet him, wanting to see where the army had gone. I ran until the next village, but I didn't find any trace of the military formation. But the residents of the next village told them that the army had left here early yesterday morning for Shang'an Village. It was supposed to be there before sunset yesterday.

If the military formation just delayed the trip on the road, it would be a trivial matter. But the people of Shang'an Village have already followed this road to the next village, and they have not seen the shadow of the military formation at all, this is a strange thing, a whole army formation has disappeared inexplicably on the road!

The clansmen hurried back to tell the patriarch, and the patriarch of Shang'an Village sent someone to rush overnight with torches to report to the army in the city. Yan Lingzhu got the news, and went out of the city to investigate before dawn, he was really a diligent and conscientious soldier. On the night after Yan Lingzhu left the city, there was a heavy snowfall in this area.

The next day, Yan Lingzhu did not return to the city outline, but appeared in Shuangliu Town on the snow, and ordered someone to transfer the military formation on duty in the city outline to guard and respond. According to the soldier's speculation, the first team of troops disappeared halfway, probably because they happened to have some clues about bandits or bandits on the road, so they chased into the mountains, which is also the duty of patrolling the castle. He ordered another army to stand guard at the choke point, waiting for news to be answered.

When Lingbao led the army to Shuangliu Village the evening before yesterday, he didn't see Yan Lingzhu, because the diligent and conscientious soldier went out to investigate in a hurry again. Just yesterday morning, Yan Lingzhu suddenly rushed back to Shuangliu Village and ordered Cun Bao to send people to guard the Beizhai Gate and pay attention to intercepting a murderer. It is said that this person is likely to be related to the rogue, and is ferocious and skillful.

Yan Lingzhu specially instructed that if he could capture this person alive, he would be escorted to the military camp in the city to be strictly guarded, waiting for him to be interrogated in person, and the news should be strictly sealed so as not to leak out, so as to prevent the news from leaking and alerting his accomplices. If the person resists violently, he will be killed on the spot.

It is not impossible for a small group of murderers to occasionally wander into the territory of Feihong City, and if Nong Neng finds relevant clues during his inspection, he should lead a team to chase them. Cun Bao didn't suspect him, and he didn't expect it to be related to the bloody case two years ago, so he was ordered to send someone to guard the Beizhai Gate, but it turned out that it was Baoyu who was waiting for him. The next thing - Baoyu already knows.

The above is what Cun Bao said, and after listening to it, Baoyu frowned and asked, "Yan Lingzhu ordered you to take me, is he himself waiting in Shuangliu Village?"

Murabao replied: "No, after he gave the order, he didn't have time to explain more, so he immediately rushed back to the city to report to the city lord." ”

Baoyu sighed and said, "He should have rushed back to dismiss his family, packed up his things and ran away." We've been delayed all day, and I'm afraid it's going to be hard to catch him. ”
