Chapter 705: Chasing the Corpse in the Snow Field
The grassland is covered with snow and cold winds. The blood cloud of the Corpse Mountain has not yet been exhausted, and it has even spread beyond the River Styx.
After I said goodbye to the two ghost kings, I walked alone in the snow, and with the last trace of anger captured by the yin and yang compass, I quickly clarified the direction.
At this time, I was glad that I had made a decision and didn't look too much at the results of the battle between His Majesty the God Emperor and the Ancestor of the Corpse, otherwise, when the last anger left by Yao Chongsheng dissipated, I wouldn't even know where Yu Buren was arrested.
The brief confrontation with the Ancestor of the Corpse left me so scarred and physically and mentally exhausted that I could not even perform the technique of shrinking the ground into inches, so I could only take a step and run wildly through the snow.
This chase lasted for four or five hours, and it was not until the sky was white that I stopped abruptly.
In an abandoned village, the hands of the Yin-Yang Compass stopped fluttering, but it was not that I found Yao Chongsheng, but in a relatively intact house, I saw a coat of Yao Chongsheng.
There was a thick aura in the room, mixed with the smell of the sun's true fire.
The ground was drenched in blood, and it had already been frozen by the ice, but the color was bright red, and it was clearly left by Yu Buren!
I took a deep breath, my mind already figuring out what was going on here.
After Yao Chongsheng left the Corpse Mountain, he once rested here for a while. Here, he released Yu Buren, but was met with fierce resistance from Yu Buren.
It's just that Yao Chongsheng is a chess player after all, not only has he been on guard against Yu Renren's Sun True Fire, but he doesn't know what means he used to injure him.
With the blood on the ground, it is estimated that the injuries are not light.
That's right, if Yao Chongsheng wants to learn the ancient runes, he will definitely not easily harm Yu Buren's life. But we all know that Lao Yu is a character who would rather bend than bend, even if he dies, he will never give Yao Chongsheng the opportunity to learn the ancient runes.
Now that he has been arrested, he does not know how many sins he will suffer.
I sprayed a mouthful of blood on the yin and yang compass, and I saw that the blood seemed to seep into a sponge, and it was absorbed in an instant. This is the unique method of our Yin Yang Shop, which can use blood to activate a specific compass, making the pointer more sensitive countless times.
After all, Yao Chongsheng stayed here for a while, no matter how good his ability was, he would definitely leave clues.
It's just that what surprised me was that even if I used the secret technique, I still couldn't clearly grasp the specific location where Yao Chongsheng left, and I could only vaguely detect a general direction.
For an exorcist like me, having direction is enough.
I put the Yin-Yang Compass in my bag, just as I wanted to pick up my breath and chase it again. I didn't want to be weak under my feet, and I almost didn't fall to the ground. I hurriedly held on to the table next to me to stabilize my figure.
At this time, I realized that my body had reached its limit, and if I didn't take a break, I might be exhausted to death halfway through the chase.
Come to think of it, I haven't had much rest since I entered the prairie, and then I was blown up by an indiscriminate strategic attack and fled, and my broken ribs are still aching faintly.
It was easy to pass this level, and he fought with the ancestor of the world's number one corpse for a while, and then used the technique of shrinking the ground into inches to chase for several hours.
Now I have already reached the point where I have run out of oil and dried up. No matter how strong my willpower is, my body really can't bear it.
I sighed, threw my backpack on the floor, and rummaged in it a few times, only to find that the kettle was long empty, and there was not much compressed can left.
Fortunately, although the village was abandoned, it was because the villagers had all the facilities in it to escape the war, and even the electricity was not stopped for a few days.
I searched in the kitchen and found half a box of juice frozen into ice cubes, a few packets of instant noodles, a few random bites, and the rest of the brain was stuffed into my backpack.
After dealing with my stomach indiscriminately, I felt refreshed. He also found a small medicine kit from the living room and treated his injuries.
Trauma, internal injuries, and soul injuries tossed for more than half an hour before I dropped my needle and thread and lay down on the bed to rest.
If you don't rest, your body will be overwhelmed.
Originally, I planned to rest for only half an hour, and then seize the time to chase Yao Rebirth. Who would have thought that sometimes when people are extremely tired, they can't remember the time at all.
When I jumped out of bed in shock, I realized that I had slept for more than two hours.
This has exceeded my expectations by an hour and a half!
I wiped my face indiscriminately, and without saying a word, I picked up my package and rushed out of the house. I saw that the outside of the house was still covered with clouds, and the cold wind was bitter, although it was daytime, but the sunlight could not penetrate the thick dark clouds at all.
The village was still quiet, only the sound of the wind and snow howling could be heard in the distance. There are a few cars parked on the street, but with such weather and such roads, driving is really an unwise idea.
So I gritted my teeth and ran again in the direction I had detected.
This chase, against the wind and snow, is another few hours.
In fact, I already know that with my current speed, it is basically a dream to catch up with Yao Chongsheng. But I had something else in mind.
First of all, Yao Chongsheng didn't know that I was chasing him from behind, as long as he relaxed for a while, he might be approached by me.
Secondly, even if Yao Chongsheng knew that someone was following him through some method, he would definitely not force Yu Buren to question him at this stall. In that case, I have been chasing after me, and I will buy time for Yu Buren.
Maybe he is very alert, and he may be out of Yao Chongsheng's control in advance.
Take 10,000 steps back, although I am alone now, there is still the entire special case department behind me, and there are countless exorcists, as long as they buy time, reinforcements will come in an endless stream.
Either way, as long as I have a breath left, I'm going to keep chasing!
I ran wildly through the snow, chasing from day to night, and from night to day. The further you go, the thicker the snow and the worse the weather.
At first, I could still see deserted villages and towns on the road, but later, all around was bare and snowy, and not only could not be seen by a living person, but not even the abandoned village was gone.
It wasn't until I passed by an abandoned outpost covered in snow and saw the red banner standing on its own that I was surprised to realize that I had reached the edge of Middle-earth.
If you go any further, you will already leave the Middle Earth Realm.
When I opened the electronic map, I found that I had indeed chased to the border, and beyond the boundary monument in front of me, it was the so-called "Mongolia", which was vast and sparsely populated.
Once I crossed the border, I was completely alone, and I had no more support than reinforcements that might come from behind.
With that in mind, I stepped into the abandoned outpost to see if I could use anything, especially military cans or communicators.
The outpost was already covered in snow, and some of it had collapsed with snow, revealing several stiff corpses.
The corpses were all dressed in combat uniforms, and the number on their arms indicated that they were border sentinels belonging to the 7th Company of the 302nd Regiment of the Border Guards of the Middle Turkey.
I knew in my heart that a company had about a hundred people, spread over a wide border and had its own area of responsibility. This outpost should be one of them.
Seeing that the corpses inside were already frozen, with angry expressions on their faces, opposite them, there were more than a dozen filthy zombies that had been beaten into a sieve and completely scrapped.
It can be inferred from the scene that after the battle of life and death broke out, Corpse Mountain chose the prairie as the breakthrough point, and it must be the key area for the dead to strike.
The warriors of this outpost were attacked by evil spirits, and after killing more than a dozen zombies, they were taken advantage of by the ghosts, swept away the three souls and seven spirits, and then left their own corpses.
At that time, there was smoke everywhere, and there were really not a few border guards who died in the occupied areas. But they also delayed a lot of time for the arrival of the battle of life and death.
It was also this time that gave the Special Case Division time to form the 1st and 2nd Combat Brigades in the rear and stabilize its position.
It can be said that it is because of their sacrifice that the special case department is bounded by Qilian Mountain and countless living people in the rear are saved.
I saluted the frozen and stiff warriors, and then whispered a mantra of the afterlife, and if their three souls and seven spirits were not devoured by the ghosts, they would have a chance to transform into heroic spirits and enter the exorcism city located in the underworld.
When the time comes, it is better for them to choose to rest in peace or continue to fight for their country than to freeze here.
As for the filthy, sieve-beaten zombies, I threw a little solar fire at them, and the flames burned and burned the corpses to ashes.
After cleaning up the surrounding zombies, I searched the outpost for a few moments, and unfortunately, the communicator here could not withstand the cold weather and could not be used normally.
But I found some military compressed cans frozen into ice. With this food, I have the confidence to enter the snow field alone and continue to chase.
Even if I chase it to the ends of the earth, I have to find out Yao Chongsheng!
I didn't stay long in the outpost, and after bringing out everything useful, I stomped slightly, and the whole outpost collapsed, burying the bodies of several fighters.
Then I raised the red flag, and with a slight force in my hand, the flagpole was plunged deep into the ruins, forming a simple tomb.
I bowed under the red flag to show my respect for the soldiers, then put away my package and crossed the border monument without looking back.
What will greet me will be a country completely overrun by the dead, a paradise of lonely ghosts, zombie spirits.
But I don't have the slightest fear in my heart, not to mention that it's just a small enemy-occupied area, even if it was the original corpse mountain, I didn't escape from it unharmed?
