Chapter 256: Weasel
A few days later, Qudan walked along the avenue to the edge of the fire-worshipping gate.
He had made up his mind to lure out the enemy hiding in the shadows on the way. Although he still didn't find anything in the past few days, he believed that his judgment would not be wrong, and it didn't appear for the time being, which can only mean that the other party was too calm, and perhaps, when he left the area of the Fire Gate, he would be exposed.
In the evening, Qu Shan was about to dismount and camp, when a blue shadow suddenly rushed over from the sky and came to him in an instant.
When you look closely, it's a wind beast.
"Hmph, what did I tell you? Go down the mountain privately, disobey orders, and don't want to live?!" Qu Dan's eyes narrowed, and a terrifying light flickered, he realized that he had been too good to the Wind Beast recently, this guy's temper was rising, and he didn't even dare to disobey his orders.
"Woo-woo-" The Wind Beast lowered its body and whined.
"Oh, she called you?" Qu Shan said coldly, "And then you came?!"
"Whewββ,
The wind beast was about to be justified, when suddenly a sharp pain that penetrated its soul occupied its brain, and the pain was so fierce that it directly beat its defense back into its stomach, and quickly spread throughout its body at lightning speed, it let out a wail, flipped to the ground, and rolled all over the ground.
Qu Shan snorted angrily, his thoughts tightened, and he saw the wind beast scratching and rolling like crazy, and soon, the ground around it was grabbed by it, and the land seemed to be turned over by a plowshare.
The miserable howl was heard dozens of miles away.
There was enough incense before the screams gradually fell silent, and the wind beast was paralyzed like mud, leaving only a weak whimper, half-dead.
"This time it's a small lesson for you, if there is a next time, you will not be spared!" Qu Shan said.
"Woo......"
"Got it, get it done, get back to me!"
Woo, the wind beast screamed, got up limply, trembled, and fell down again, at this time, how can it still have the strength to stand up, but now it will never dare to slack off on Qu Dan's order, it just wants to immediately go to the sky, return to the volcano, and have a good rest.
Stand up, fall, get up again, fall again......
Qu Shan frowned, pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, just lie down like this! Stay, no need to go back! Be vigilant at night, monitor everything around me, and report it immediately if there is any movement!"
As if pardoned, the wind beast lay on the ground and panted, and did not move a single bit.
The playlist suddenly changed his mind and decided to keep this guy. Since you came, if you send it back, you won't feel a little troublesome going back and forth. In the past few days, he has also figured out that the goal of that group of people must be himself, not to worship the Fire Gate. Because if they want to deal with the Fire Worship Gate, they don't have to take the punishment to blackmail themselves, but directly arrest and assassinate the elders of the Fire Worship Gate, or even kill them by force, and there is no need for conspiracy and trickery at all in terms of the strong strength shown by the other party.
Therefore, Pei Cainan is actually very safe, even in danger, she can be invincible with the stealth technique. The arrival of the Wind Beast can add a great boost to him.
The night was calm, and on the second day, Qu Shan abandoned his horse, rode on the wind and beast, and continued to move in the direction of Yuzhou.
When I left the area of the Worship Fire Gate, the scene I saw was very different.
In the territory of Baihuomen, although the road is sparsely populated, from a distance on the plain, you can still see the smoke curling, the picture of people working hard, and the fertile fields one after another, a peaceful and peaceful. And once you cross the border, the outside immediately becomes a place of war and chaos, with broken walls and ruins scorched by the flames of war, visible everywhere.
These places are all war-torn places, where the common people have long since disappeared in order to escape, and some people have attached themselves to the rebels, become one of them, and then go to the trouble of other people.
In this way, under the condition that the officials and troops were not effective in suppressing bandits, the civil strife was getting bigger and bigger, and in the past few months, not only has there been no sign of extinction, but it has become more and more intense, and there is quite a trend of robbers among the whole people.
"Kill. "Qu Dan saw thousands of dead bodies on the side of the road, there were thousands of them, it was really a wilderness of bones, thousands of miles of uninhabited.
From time to time, vultures were startled by him and scattered.
In the past two days, the feeling of the song list has become clear, although there is no trace of the tracker for the time being, but he knows that they are not far away, and occasionally, there will be a feeling of being spied on.
Ahead of them, another flock of vultures startled, and the "quack" cry was extremely unpleasant, hovering in the sky. A bird flew by from the horizon and soon flew to the top of Qu Shan's head, chirped a few times, and then spread its wings and flew off into the distance.
"Gah-" A vulture spotted the bird, spread its wings, and immediately chased after it.
This kind of vulture is different from the vultures seen in Qu Dan's previous life, their explosive power is extremely strong, and their short-distance speed can even conjure up afterimages and drag out sonic booms, and their long beaks have two rows of fine serrated teeth, which can catch the prey more ruthlessly and steadily, once the prey is caught, there is no chance to escape. Their mouths, like their claws, are the sharpest tools for hunting prey.
I saw the vulture streak through the air, and immediately caught up with the bird, and with a peck of its beak, it took the bird in its mouth, and swallowed it with all its might, and the bird, which was less than the size of a fist, immediately became the vulture's stomach.
A thin cylindrical object fell diagonally from the sky, just in front of the song list.
Qu Dan's eyes were sharp, he had already discovered it, and the wind beast galloped past and scooped it up. Slowly unfolded, but it was a note used by humans, on which were recorded nine small words: "Arrive in two days, original plan." β
I didn't have a head or a brain, and I watched the song list for a while, but I couldn't get any useful information.
It's just that his thinking is Huo Ran and cheerful, these days, the scope of his soul has been exploring the traces of people, but he never thought that these animals in nature may also be used by the other party as a means of surveillance.
Thinking of this, Qu Shan began to pay attention to the movement in the sky, and the birds he often saw were the objects of his observation. No one could tell, but perhaps one of those birds was sent to spy on him.
However, at the end of the day, no suspicious objects were found.
At night, the song list is not relaxed, and all the birds and animals that enter the range of perception are carefully observed. It wasn't until the second half of the night that an animal finally came into his "field of vision" sneakily in the distance.
It was a small animal, very weasel-like, with a long snout, sniffing and walking in the direction of the tent.
It wasn't until he was within a mile that the weasel suddenly raised his head, fixed the direction of the tent, and remained still for a long time, and then suddenly turned around and turned back.
"There's a problem!" Qu Shan keenly felt that something was wrong, a few nights ago, it seemed that there were such weasels around the camp, and they originally felt that they were normal, but as soon as they paid special attention today, they found the problem.
An invisible spiritual power rope was ejected, and in an instant, the weasel was tied to death, Qu Shan stretched out his hand, and the rope dragged the weasel back to the tent.
"Little beast, it's so bold, you can't leave it!" Qu Shan saw the weasel's appearance clearly, from the eyes of this animal, he did not see the wildness of wild animals and the fear of humans, but saw its closeness and obedience, and determined that it was artificially raised.
Needless to say, he guessed correctly, and it was this little weasel that the other party used to spy on him.
With a slam of the spiritual power rope, the weasel instantly broke its breath, and a ghostly dark blue flame burst out, burning the weasel to ashes in a blink of an eye!
Clap your hands and scatter with the wind, leaving no trace.
After another half of the night, there was no movement. Thinking about the other party, there is only this weasel, and the sky is unclear, and he is on the road again.
After two more days of trance, the feeling of being watched in Qu Dan's heart finally disappeared. It seems that the other party's tracking methods have been destroyed by him.
At this time, he suddenly regretted that he should not have killed the weasel, but should have leaned behind it and found its owner, so that he could ask for some useful information.
However, killing is killing, and it is useless to say more.
The song list deliberately slowed down, waiting for the enemy in the shadows to catch up. It's far from the fire gate, and if you want to do it, it should be about the same.
In front of it is a cliff facing two mountains, with thousands of walls and a narrow road in the middle, which extends inward. Looking up from below, you can only see a glimmer of skylight, the front and rear roads are cramped, and the space is narrow, but it is the legendary first-line sky terrain, which is an excellent ambush location.
Two mountains ago, on one side of the road, there was a simple inn, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, and the smoke curling.
Qu Shan smiled, drove away the wind beast, and strode forward, it was not early, these days of eating and sleeping, it was time to find an inn to rest.
