CHAPTER XXIX
It didn't take long for Xia Yang and them to enter the eastern part of the Red Leaf Forest, only to see the trees lush, the strange rocks, and occasionally some beast roars, Xia Yang and the others were a little impatient, just because of Xia Houming's presence, otherwise the four of them would have disappeared long ago.
Xia Houming had already paid attention to the minds of several people, and thought in his heart: It is rare for the four of Xia Yang to have this kind of experience, and now that they have just stepped into the Red Leaf Forest, there will be no danger for the four of them, and he will also send a few people to follow them, so let them get in touch with this cruel world! Thinking of this, Xia Houming said: "Looking at your appearance, it seems that I have long wanted to find out, okay, I will call a few people to follow you, but you must ensure that the distance from us cannot exceed one kilometer!"
After hearing this, Xia Yang and the four of them couldn't bear it in their hearts. In unison, he said: "We promise that it will not exceed one kilometer!"
Xia Houming shook his head with a smile, and said loudly to the guards behind him, "Xia Wu, where is it?"
"The subordinates are here!" Before the voice disappeared, he saw a person coming on horseback, and when he looked closely, it was Xia Wu himself.
"Xia Wu, you take a few people with Xia Yang and them to explore that mountain forest. If there are special circumstances, retreat quickly, and don't fall in love!" Xia Houming said with his right hand pointing to a dwarf maple forest in front of his left.
"Yes, young master!" replied Xia Wu. Then he turned around and rode to the front of the guards, and said to these people: "You, you, and you are out of the ranks, come with me and the little prince of Xia Yang and they will go to the left front to explore the dwarf maple forest! Remember, if you encounter the Explosive Flame Tiger or a large group of wolves and wolves in the Red Eye Mountain, you must protect the safety of the little boys, do you hear?" Xia Wu shouted loudly.
"Yes!" shouted all five of them at the same time.
Xia Wu turned around and came to Xia Yang and said, "A few little boys, young ladies, let's go!"
"Okay, okay, let's go, let's go, haha I can finally break into this red leaf forest alone!" Xia Yuan said directly before Xia Ye and Xia Yang could speak.
Xia Yaoxue, who was dressed in fiery red leather armor, giggled and said, "Brother Xia Yuan just can't sit still, but I think so too!"
Xia Yang and Xia Ye glanced at each other, shook their heads helplessly, Xia Ye said, "Just listen to Master Wu's arrangement, let's go!"
"Let's go," Xia Wu shouted.
Xia Ye and his entourage of nine people rode towards the left front, Xia Houming looked at these people, and secretly said in his heart: It's time for them to experience some killing. Thinking of the ten major sects about to recruit apprentices, Xiahou Ming's eyes were profound.
"Let's go too!" After speaking, Xiahou Ming continued to walk forward with the remaining guards.
Xia Yang and his party soon came to the front of the dwarf maple forest, there was no movement in the forest, Xia Wu frowned slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, thinking that even if the periphery of the Red Leaf Forest had been explored by many martial artists, at least there must be some traces of first- and second-order demon beasts!
Xia Yang noticed Xia Wu's expression and asked puzzledly, "Master Wu, is there anything wrong?"
"Little Master Xia Yang, that's the case, I used to explore the Red Leaf Forest with the eldest young master, although it was also quiet here, there would be some low-level demon beast activities, but now," Xia Wu said his doubts.
"So, this dwarf forest is not the same as before?Isn't it rumored that there have been a lot of changes on the periphery of the Red Leaf Forest recently!Maybe this is just one of the places?" Xia Yang said uncertainly.
"What Xiao Gongzi Xia Yang said is not unreasonable, but just in case, we should be more careful when entering this low forest. After Xia Wu finished speaking to Xia Yang and the others, he said to the guards who came with him: "This dwarf forest is full of strangeness! You are divided into two teams, and the three of you are exploring the way ahead, and if you find it, you will immediately warn. The two of you are in the rear, so keep an eye on what's going on behind. Xia Wu quickly made arrangements, and at the same time said respectfully: "The three young masters and Miss Xue'er, for the sake of the safety of a few people, please also ask a few of them to act according to the orders of their subordinates!"
Xia Yang and the others glanced at each other, and Xia Ye opened his mouth and said: "The Red Leaf Forest is basically unknown to the few of us, even if Master Wu makes arrangements, we will do what you say!"
"Okay, in that case, then let's go!" As soon as Xia Wu finished speaking, the three guards walked towards the dwarf maple forest first, and Xia Yang and Xia Wu also followed one after another, followed by the last two guards.
When they first entered the dwarf maple forest, the light dimmed, and everyone was a martial artist, and they didn't pay attention to this little change. Before entering the dwarf maple forest, everyone already knew that this forest was a little weird, and after everyone entered the dwarf maple forest, this strange feeling became even stronger.
Xia Yang frowned slightly, especially Xia Yaoxue was a little scared, after all, she was a little girl less than ten years old, it was impossible to say that she was not afraid, but through a few years of cultivation, her heart was far better than that of ordinary people. Even so, Xia Yaoxue subconsciously approached Xia Yang.
Seeing this scene, Xia Yang touched Xia Yaoxue's head comfortingly, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, we are all here!"
"Well, it's just that it's so weird here, there's not even a bird's sound!" Xia Yaoxue said in a trembling tone.
At this moment, one of the three people exploring the path in front shouted, "Lord Xia, come and take a look!"
Xia Wu heard the call and said to Xia Yang and the others: "There is a situation ahead, let's go over and take a look." ”
"Good!" Xia Yang said.
Xia Wudang walked towards the front first, and it didn't take long for several people to come to the place where the three of them were. I saw that the surroundings were in a mess, and the corpses of many incomplete demon beasts were lying around.
"Ahh
When Xia Yaoxue saw this scene, she shouted in shock, and then quickly lay on Xia Yang's body, because of excessive fright, her breathing became short, her face was also extremely pale, and her body trembled like a sifting chaff.
Xia Yang gently patted Xia Yaoxue on the shoulder and said softly, "Xue'er, don't be afraid, it's okay!"
"Woo woo" A whimper came, and Xia Yaoxue leaned on Xia Yang and began to sob.
Xia Yang looked at Xia Ye and the two of them helplessly, and the two of them replied with powerless looks, meaning to let Xia Yang deal with it himself.
Xia Yang had no choice but to continue to persuade, but his eyes motioned for the two to go and see the situation.
Xia Ye and Xia Yuan nodded and walked towards the messy place. When the two of them walked over, their faces were also a little pale, and it was the first time they had seen such a miserable situation, because the corpses of many demon beasts were scattered, and almost none of them were intact. The most striking thing is that among the corpses of these demon beasts are more than a dozen wolf monsters the size of calves, and one of them is larger with a pair of blood-red eyes, and there is a faint despair and fear of death in his eyes. Thinking about it, this demon beast experienced a terrifying slaughter before it died! Xia Ye thought that this kind of wolf demon beast should be the Red Eye Mountain Wolf! However, he was still a little puzzled, how could there be more than a dozen Red Eyes Mountain Wolves here at the same time, and there were other demon beasts at the same time, what was going on here? One by one, they were shrouded in the hearts of everyone present.
Xia Wu didn't say a word when he came here, his brows were furrowed, his eyes were uncertain, and he came to the corpse of a demon beast from time to time to check something.
Not long after, after Xia Wu seemed to determine the reason for what happened here, he walked up to Xia Ye and the others, and said, "A few little boys, if your subordinates are not mistaken, the demon beast massacre that happened here not long ago was done by the rumored Flame Blasting Tiger. ”
Xia Yang asked, "How did Master Xia see it?" After Xia Yang's reassurance, Xia Yaoxue was no longer the same as just now, but she didn't dare to look at the place where the demon beast's corpse was.
"Back to the little boy of Xiayang, there are three reasons. First, the subordinates found that they belonged to the tiger monsters from the bite marks on the corpses of many demon beasts, and these wounds were almost fatal with one blow, and only a few were secondary injuries to end the lives of these demon beasts, and the attack on this supplement was also arbitrary. In the face of so many demon beasts, this requires absolute strength to do it! The only one who meets the requirements is the Flame Blasting Tiger. Moreover, seven or eight of these demon beasts were scorched all over, and the rest also had more or less traces of burning! It was obvious that the powerful demon beasts that killed these demon beasts had the ability to control fire. The third point is that from the footprints in the scene, it can be found that there are tiger demon beasts, but there are no tiger demon beasts in these corpses. Therefore, the subordinates can say for sure that this should be the work of the Flame Blasting Tiger!" Xia Wu slowly told his discovery.
After Xia Yang heard what Xia Wu said, he nodded and said, "What Master Wu said makes sense, should we tell my father about the period here?" At the same time, Xia Yang thought in his heart: This person has a delicate mind and a high level of cultivation, no wonder he was entrusted with a heavy task by the Xia family.
"Young Master Xia Yang is right, this matter must be notified to the eldest young master as soon as possible. Wang Han, you find the eldest young master as quickly as possible and tell the eldest young master about the situation here!" After Xia Wu finished speaking to Xia Yang, he quickly called out a person named Wang Han from among the five people who came with him.
"Yes, my lord!" Wang Han bowed his hand.
Xia Yang asked suspiciously, "Master Xia, did you say that this Flame Explosion Tiger didn't go far, will it come to this place again?"
"Little boy, don't worry, the Flame Burst Tiger won't come back, as for whether this demon beast will still be nearby, the subordinates are not sure?" Xia Wu said uncertainly. It's hard to figure out the habits of demon beasts, let alone which monsters have higher IQs.
"No, Master Xia, don't scare me, if this Explosive Flame Tiger is still nearby and finds out about us, then wouldn't we be very dangerous?" Xia Yuan looked at this terrifying scene for ordinary people, and thought in his heart that these few people were not enough to Explode Flame Tiger's teeth, and couldn't help but say worriedly.
"Little Young Master Xia Yuan don't worry, if the Explosive Flame Tiger really appears again, the cultivation of a few of us is enough to ensure the safety of a few young men. Besides, I believe it won't be too long, and the young master will come in a hurry!" Xia Wu said calmly.
Even if the Explosive Flame Tiger appeared in front of everyone, Xia Wu's cultivation would be enough to deal with and kill! This was also the main reason why Xiahou Ming let him follow Xia Yang and them.
And the reason why Xia Yang was worried was mainly because they overestimated the strength of the Explosive Flame Tiger, they just saw the corpses of many demon beasts on the scene, but they ignored that these were all low-level demon beasts, and they would not be put in the eyes of the Explosive Flame Tiger at all.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wang Han's voice to be heard in the distance, "Young Master, just ahead!" Immediately after that, Xia Yang and the others saw Xiahou Ming with the remaining Xia family guards.
Xia Wu hurriedly greeted him and told Xiahou Ming what he had found here and his own opinions, and Xiahou Ming frowned after hearing this, and carefully observed the scene. After a while, Xia Houming said to Xia Wu: "You are right, this is indeed the work of the Explosive Flame Tiger. I used my spiritual power to explore the surroundings just now, but I didn't find any traces of the Explosive Flame Tiger!" As soon as the words changed, Xia Houming continued: "However, just in case, now every group of five people will use this place as the origin to spread out a fan, and search for the depth within ten miles, if you find traces of the Explosive Flame Tiger, use the signal flare as a guide to tell others. Let's go!" Xia Houming quickly ordered.
"Yes, young master," everyone shouted.
"Ye'er, Yang'er, Yuan'er, Xue'er, the four of you follow me, and we continue to explore deeply. Xia Houming said to Xia Yang and the four of them.
Xia Yang and the four of them said in unison: "Yes!"
