Chapter Twenty-Five: The Iron Boy
Cinnabar smiled bitterly: "I'm just skeptical at the moment, and it's not necessarily a stealth spirit beast, it's hard to come up with such a monster in a thousand years, and it won't be such a coincidence." ”
Zhu Tianshou said angrily: "Then what are we going to do next? How can we find out this murderer? If I encounter it, I will definitely tear this guy apart." ”
Zhao Shibao also said: "This atmosphere is too aggrieved, it's really better to have a face-to-face fight, it's really depressing to death." ”
Cinnabar seemed to have a sinking face, and already had an idea, and said: "Everyone is not impatient, we don't need to search for him anymore, I believe that he will continue to attack, so I decided to keep vigil tonight, as long as he dares to make a move, I can find him out." ”
Zhu Tianshou's eyes lit up and said, "Brother Cinnabar, what good method do you have?"
Cinnabar said confidently: "Well, I guess he will come tonight, as long as he dares to make a move, I will make sure he shows his original form, but although I can find him, I am worried about the confrontation ......."
Zhu Tianshou said: "You can rest assured that everyone should not sleep too hard today, listen to the signals of the cinnabar brothers at any time, and don't sleep separately at night, it is best to work in groups of two and take care of each other." ”
He pondered for a moment and said: "Tie Tong is with me tonight, Li Xiang and Gu Xiaozao are with the two of you, and you are also with the Zhao family brothers, as for the cinnabar brothers, you will work hard and notify us as soon as you find out about the situation." ”
Cinnabar smiled slightly and said, "Well, I wish the boss such an arrangement, which is exactly what I want." ”
On the contrary, Gu Xiaozao behind Cinnabar looked at Cinnabar with a confident look, but his face was full of worry.
After everyone agreed, according to Feng Xiaoling's previous handling method, Zheng Yun's body was buried on the spot, and Zheng Yun's bag was also temporarily handed over to Li Xiang to put away.
The crowd also carved a tablet and placed it on top of the mound, and then returned to the camp.
In the evening, Zhu Tianshou, as the head of the hunting group, felt a great responsibility and was always at ease, so he proposed to accompany the cinnabar vigil, and everyone thought that his cultivation was the highest, so everyone naturally did not object.
And the cinnabar nourishes the spirit during the day, and after nightfall, the spirit is directly activated.
He was a strong-willed man, and every two hours, he continued to spy around the camp.
It's just that no matter how carefully he investigated, he never found any clues, not only did he not see any high-level spirit beasts, but he also didn't see any high-level human races, and even the so-called stealth spirit beasts had no trace to follow.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he used the spiritual cultivation technique several times in a row, which finally caused his spirit to relax, and finally slowly fell asleep.
The next morning, he reflexively woke up first, and his heart was subconsciously tightened, not wanting to hear anyone scream or cry again.
Fortunately, it was peaceful and quiet in the early morning.
Although Cinnabar worked very hard last night, she now has something in her heart, so she is no longer sleepy.
He thought about it, and then stood up and walked out of the tent and began to walk around, hoping to find something.
Everyone got up one after another, and found that everyone was there, and sure enough, no one had any more accidents that night, so everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Nothing tragic happened," Li Xiang even said with some excitement: "Maybe the bad luck has left us." ”
Gu Xiaozao stuck out his tongue and said, "I hope so!"
At the end of the day, nothing happened again, everyone carried out the work at hand step by step, and went out to hunt, while Li Xiang and Gu Xiaozao were eating for a day.
Now that the time for the birth of that rare beast is approaching, it is getting closer and closer, and I believe that in less than two days, a large number of martial arts cultivators will also arrive.
And now a quiet and peaceful day is even more precious for these people, knowing that at such a moment, their spirits can hardly withstand a greater blow.
It's a pity that things backfired, and God always wouldn't grant their wishes so easily.
The joy of the crowd apparently did not last long.
Because after Li Xiang and Gu Xiaozao had prepared dinner, when everyone walked out of their respective tents and gathered together, they found out that something was wrong.
Of the rest of them, there was one person missing.
Li Xiang said anxiously and helplessly: "It's Tie Tong, why is he gone." ”
Zhu Tianshou was extremely surprised: "No, this afternoon Tie Tong was clearly with me, we were still talking and laughing in the camp tent, discussing martial arts matters, and he also asked me a few questions." ”
Li Xiang immediately confirmed: "Yes, when Xiao Zao and I were preparing the meal, Tie Tong was indeed the first to come in. ”
She suddenly remembered something: "By the way, now that I think about it, Tie Tong's expression at that time was very wrong. ”
Cinnabar hurriedly said: "What was the situation at that time, you might as well elaborate." ”
Li Xiang began to recall: "I was preparing dinner with Xiao Zao this evening, and in the process of cooking, it seemed that Tie Tong suddenly broke in, looking anxious, and stopped talking to me several times, but seeing Xiao Zao next to him, he never said anything. ”
Li Xiang recalled: "I saw that he looked different from usual, and thought that he was unwell, so I comforted him a few words at first, but Tie Tong just wanted to say something and stopped, and I also joked: 'Do you have something to say to me, or do you know something?'"
Cinnabar frowned and said, "What about later?"
Li Xiang recalled: "When he heard my words, he didn't dare to say anything. ”
When I asked him again, he suddenly had a nervous breakdown, and then left on his own, and the direction he left must have gone to his own camp. ”
After hearing this, Cinnabar immediately realized something: "His performance like this clearly knows something." ”
"What else does he know?" Gu Xiaozao exclaimed, "Could it be that he knows who the murderer is!"
Li Xiang also reacted completely and exclaimed: "Yes, why didn't I think of this." ”
The brothers of the Zhao family glanced at each other, and their expressions were suddenly solemn.
"It's just nonsense," Zhu Tianshou said: "When is it, how can he let his temperament come to an end." ”
Zhao Shibao was even more annoyed: "How did this little rabbit cub become so timid." ”
Zhu Tianshou said angrily: "The others are waiting here, Shihu Shibao, you two will go with me to the camp tent and find Tie Tong to come back." ”
After the three of them left, Cinnabar, Li Xiang and Gu Xiaozao looked at each other, and there was surprise on their faces.
If this iron boy already knows the identity of the murderer, then the matter has finally come to a point.
While Cinnabar was pondering, he suddenly stood up and exclaimed, "Something is not quite right. ”
The other two looked at him in unison, with puzzled expressions,
Cinnabar said anxiously: "We are too careless, think about it, Tie Tong knows the identity of the murderer, why don't you dare to speak, it is clear that this murderer is one of us." ”
He smiled a little bitterly: "Then the three of us are here, if the murderer is not here, then it should be among the other three." ”
Li Xiang and Gu Xiaozao also thought of this, and exclaimed in unison: "It's not good. ”
Just as everyone was stunned, they suddenly heard a scream in the distance.
This sound is clearly the voice of wishing Tianshou, and the place where the sound comes out is in the iron boy tent farthest away from the tent.
