Chapter 510: One Step Late

In fact, Ding Qin has similar plans. It's not because of anything else, firstly, after drifting in the black waterway, her body is really tired, and secondly, Mei Qing also needs to rest well to recuperate from her unhealed injuries.

The officer readily agreed, "Okay, then you can go." Now the habits of many spirit beasts have changed, so you must be careful on the road. ”

When it came to the change of spirit beasts, Ding Qin hesitated. Finally, he still spoke, "This big brother, I have something to tell you about the change in the habits of spirit beasts. You should think in the direction of the source of the spirit beast. ”

This officer should have never heard of this word at all, "Spirit Beast Source?"

Ding Qin said, "I don't need to say much about this matter, and it may not be something you can solve." When you get back, please report to your superiors. I think people at a certain level might understand what I'm talking about. ”

The officer didn't even ask any more, "Okay." I'll report it when I get back. Well, now we're going to leave it at that. ”

Following the other two patrol members, Ding Qin and Mei Qing walked back along the mountain road. Along the way, the two team members seemed to be very interested in Mei Zhishu, one question at a time, and one question at a time. Mei Qing actually replied happily, but once it came to making weapons, she refused.

According to her, she can't help others make decisions.

Towards midnight, several people finally returned to the camp.

The camp was not large, with only a dozen tents, built in a valley, sheltered from the wind on all sides, and had three passages to get in and out.

After arriving at the camp, the two patrols reported the identities of Ding Qin and Mei Qing to the commander in the camp, and asked someone to arrange accommodation for them according to Mei Qing's wishes.

The next morning, the two of them got up early in the morning, did not wait for breakfast in the camp, asked the relevant personnel for the map, and left directly.

Judging from the map, the location of Mei Zhishu and Guo Cheng may be more than two hundred miles away from the camp. However, Ding Qin and Mei Qing can take shortcuts in many places, and when the sun is setting in the west, the centralized resettlement area close to the two seniors is already in sight.

The two of them sped up slightly, and finally entered the resettlement area before the sun set. The barracks were all simple and there were a small number of soldiers patrolling the perimeter

According to the signs on the map, walking more than ten miles directly east from the resettlement area, you can reach the Qinghua Valley, where the two predecessors now live.

In order to better grasp the situation, Ding Qin climbed to the highest point in the resettlement area. However, due to the late day and the fact that the two seniors lived in a forest across the centralized resettlement area, their vision was restricted, and a faint mist began to rise on the ground, so it was basically impossible to see the situation over there.

Ding Qin and Mei Qing saw that the sun had set, and they thought that it was too late anyway, so they prepared to take a short rest in the resettlement area and leave after eating.

Just when the two of them reached an agreement, in the direction of Qinghua Valley, a fire broke out.

Not long after, there were several faint fluctuations of spiritual power, which also came from that direction.

This fluctuation was extremely weak, so weak that Mei Qing, a spiritual cultivator of the third order of spiritual power, didn't feel it. But Ding Qin knew that the fluctuations of spiritual power that could be transmitted for more than ten miles were generally produced by the attack and defense of the strong. If there is a fight there, it will most likely have something to do with the two seniors.

He frowned and said to Mei Qing, "Let's go, we'll go to the valley now." Just now I felt a spiritual power fluctuation coming from there. ”

Mei Qing was taken aback, "What?" she also looked up at the firelight again, "Could it be ......"

Ding Qin said, "I only found out when I went." Otherwise, you stay here and I'll take a look. If there is no problem, I will come back to pick you up. ”

"No!" Mei Qing had already stood up, "That's my father!

Between words, she had rushed out a few meters.

Ding Qin didn't stop her and followed closely. After passing through the woods, the two of them found that in the direction of Qinghua Valley, there was already a sea of fire.

Mei Qing looked more anxious and increased her speed a little. Ding Qin was afraid that her spiritual power would be overrun and she would faint again, so he immediately stepped forward, asked for her consent with two simple words, and lifted her belt with one hand and walked her forward at high speed.

After running for nearly ten miles, Qinghua Valley had already appeared in front of the two people.

It is said to be a valley, but in fact there are no mountains. The main body of Qinghua Mountain is below the horizon. It was about fifty or sixty meters deep, nearly a mile wide, and stretched for more than ten miles, or rather a fissure. There is a stream passing through the valley, and there are large green birch trees growing on the ground where there is no water, hence the name.

By the time the two arrived, the fire in the valley had burned nearly a quarter of the birch forest. And, since the wind is blowing down the valley today, the fire is still spreading.

"Let's go down and find them. Ding Qin put Mei Qing down and glanced at the picture again.

The location of the two old men, marked on the map, is located in the middle of the valley, and is now very close to the fire.

Before Ding Qin finished reading, Mei Qing had already jumped off. Ding Qin followed, and when he arrived in the valley, he found that there was already a surging heat wave here.

Luckily, when they reached the bottom of the valley, they found a few wooden houses by the stream. In the corner of one of the rooms, there is also a flag with multiple pendants.

"That's my father's pendant wind flag!" Mei Qing's voice didn't know whether it was joy or worry. She still didn't wait for Ding Qin, ran over as fast as she could, and slammed open the door of the house, "Dad, Dad, I'm Qing'er, I'm here!"

Ding Qin's heart actually mentions his throat and eyes now. Because Mei Qing said that Mei Zhishu has no ability to fight. Such a person occupies a name that makes people blush, and in addition, he has invisibly formed a contradiction with Shang Shou, and his safety is naturally worrying.

Ding Qin was not in a hurry to help Mei Qing. He carefully searched the area around the house to make sure that there was no threat of hostility before walking towards the door that Mei Qing had just entered.

Before she reached the door, Mei Qing came out with an old man.

Under the light of the fire, Ding Qin found that the two looked a little similar, and there was no doubt that this was Mei Zhishu.

Mei Zhishu's left shoulder was already injured, his clothes were torn, and blood flowed to his left leg, but his mental state did not seem to be bad, and while following Mei Qing out, he was still talking, "I'm fine, I'm fine! Leave me alone, go find you Uncle Guo!"

Ding Qin's heart once again raised to a new height. He stepped forward a few steps, "Senior, what's wrong with Senior Guo Cheng?"

Mei Zhishu looked at Ding Qin, "Who are you?"

Mei Qing had already put Mei Zhishu in an open space, and said while helping him check his wounds, "He is my friend, and he came to find Uncle Guo." Uncle Guo, what's wrong with him?"

Mei Zhishu's vigilance was finally dispelled, "He, he's over there, on the burning side! Just now, someone suddenly came to our residence, as if he wanted to ask you Uncle Guo for something. When I heard the voice, I went out to check, and the man did something to me without saying anything. When your Uncle Guo saw this, he was afraid that I would be hurt again, so he immediately led him away and went to the woods. ”

Mei Zhishu swallowed his saliva, "That person's cultivation is not low! I can see the caution on your Uncle Guo's face." Go, be sure to find it! This fire was only ignited after they left, probably in the middle of the fight!"

When Ding Qin heard this, he said that it was not good, so he first found several drugs to treat external injuries from his Lingna Stone belt, then opened the shield and entered the sea of fire.

Ding Qin didn't know where Guo Cheng would be. However, if the fire was caused by their fight, then Guo Cheng would most likely be near the point where the fire started, that is, at the other end of the fire.

With this reasoning, Ding Qin walked quickly through the fire. About two-thirds of the way through, most of the trees there had burned out, the flames had been greatly reduced, and most of them had only charcoal left on the ground, and their sight was much better. Ding Qin slowed down slightly and searched carefully within visual range.

Until the other end of the fire, about a few hundred meters away from the burning forest, Ding Qin suddenly noticed a faint light on the other side.

This light is the light of the shield!

Ding Qin cautiously stopped in the shadows, carefully observed the surroundings, and confirmed that there were no spiritual power fluctuations before quietly approaching that location.

When he was more than ten meters away from the shield, he found that under the shield was a man of the same age as Mei Zhishu. There were several blood stains on his body, and his shield was showing signs of instability.

"Senior Guo?" Ding Qin tried to exhale, but did not deliberately reveal his position. The man struggled to raise a hand in the shield as if waiting for someone to come to the rescue.

Ding Qin didn't wait any longer. He quickly stepped forward, first using his spiritual power to break through the shield on this person's body, and then briefly looked at his injuries.

Two injuries on the chest can be seen in the bones, and one leg should have been fractured. His breath was a little weak, and he looked at Ding Qin, "Help, save me." ”

Ding Qin asked, "Are you Master Guo?"

The man nodded slightly. Then he slowly closed his eyes. Ding Qin was shocked, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to test it, and found that he had just fainted for a while. After carefully treating the injuries on his body briefly, Ding Qin picked him up, raised the shield on his body, jumped directly onto the flat ground above the rift, and returned along the same path.

The fire has now burned past where the wooden house is located. Mei Qing took Mei Zhishu and moved outward, and now he was also above the rift, outside the threat of fire.

When Ding Qin arrived at this position, Mei Qing also saw his figure, and shouted with his hands arched in front of his mouth, "Ding Qin, come here, come quickly!"

Hearing the voice, Ding Qin quickly approached the two of them. Mei Zhishu saw Ding Qin hugging Guo Cheng, and the worry in his eyes was full, "How is Guo Cheng?"

Ding Qin said, "He was seriously injured. We have to take him back to the resettlement site for treatment. ”

Mei Qing nodded, "Okay, we'll leave right away." I just don't know who injured Uncle Guo like this......"

"Don't, leave me alone. At this moment, Guo Cheng suddenly woke up. He saw Mei Qing first, "Qing'er, go after it, chase that person." Qili, Qili incense burner was snatched away by him!"
