Chapter Twenty-Six: Chasing the Murderer on a Rainy Night

If Martin was still testing the other party before, when the words "Dominating the Secret Realm" came out of the mouth of the leper boy, everyone's faces became serious.

Ma Yiao stepped forward, stared at the young man, and said word by word, "Can you hear our conversation?" ”

The boy raised his head without fear and said yes.

Ma Yiao glanced outside the door, as if he was measuring the distance, and after a while, he said: "Yes, from such a distance, you can actually hear our conversation here, you are very talentedβ€”come, you go on, come and try to convince me." ”

Martin was a little upset, saying that even if he heard a sentence or two along the wind, what could it mean?

The leper boy was obviously prepared, and said: "Two years ago, someone came to Bald Ridge and stayed for half a month, and then Bald Ridge collapsed, and the surrounding area became a puddle - that was because there was an accident in the tunnel of the secret realm under the tyrant, and it was directly sealed, and if you want to go, there is only one way; And that way, only I know, if you don't believe it, go to the field tomorrow and you will know. ”

Hearing this, Martin didn't argue any further, but took out his compass and ran outside.

After a few minutes, he returned to the ruined temple, stared at the young man, and said, "Say, what do you want us to do for you?" ”

Seeing that Martin, who had the strongest objections, was relieved, the leper boy seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then said, "I can take you to the secret realm, but you need to help me avenge the three guys who killed my parents." ”

Ma Yiao squinted his eyes and said, "You didn't say it before, but now you talk about it, where can you find someone?" ”

The leper boy seemed to have known that he would say this, and pointed to his nose, saying that I not only have good ears, but also have a very strong sense of smell, and can smell them, and if you are willing to help me, I will be able to take you to find them.

Ma Yiao was silent for a while, and then asked, "Those people are fierce, cold-blooded and ruthless, why can you survive?" ”

The leprosy boy's face became gloomy, and he said: "My sense of hearing and smell is very developed, and when there was an accident, I hid as soon as possible, but it's a pity that I ......."

"So you haven't met those people, have you?" Ma Yiao groaned for a moment and continued to ask: "If this is the case, it is difficult for me to judge whether we can control them, if not, then I promise you, will I not throw away the lives of myself and my friends?" ”

The leper boy was a little excited and shouted, "Yes, you can, absolutely no problem." ”

Ma Yiao stared at him and said that it was better to ...... Call the police, right?

When the leper boy heard this, he burst out laughing for a while, and he laughed so desolate that tears and snot could not help flowing out, and then he suddenly turned around and walked outside.

Martin stopped him and said where to go?

The leprosy boy raised his head and said word by word: "My father is dead, my mother is dead, they are my only relatives in this world, without them, I have no meaning in living in this world, in this case, it is better to go with them today......"

With that, he continued to walk, and Martin reached out to stop him, but when he saw the face of the leper boy distorted like a demon, he finally stopped.

At this time, Ma Yiao finally spoke: "Yes." ”

When the leper boy heard this, he stopped, turned around, looked at him, and said with some excitement: "What did you say? ”

Ma Yiao stepped forward: "Yes, I promise you, but you have to remember what you said, if you are just scheming in front of me, I will personally send you down and accompany your parents, you know?" ”

The leper boy was not threatened by his words, but said excitedly, "Okay, let's go now." ”

Ma Yiao stretched his waist and said that we have been on the road for a day, and everyone is very tired, so we can't do it tomorrow?

The leper boy shook his head and said urgently, "Noβ€”it will rain tonight, and if the rain is heavy, it will wash away the smell on the road, and if this is the case, I'm afraid we won't be able to find those people again." ”

Ma Yiao frowned, and confirmed with him again, saying Are you sure you can use your sense of smell to find those people?

The leper boy nodded vigorously, and said yes.

Ma Yiao said you go home first, clean up, we will discuss here, and give you an answer later, is it okay?

The leper boy glanced at Ma Yiao, then turned to leave.

As soon as he left, Ma Yiao motioned to Feihua to close the door, and then took out a bronze lotus lamp, rubbed it twice on the edge of the lotus petals, and a faint blue flame appeared, and then he asked everyone to move closer to the light, and whispered to Martin: "This kid is very strange, do you think it's a nightcrawler?" ”

The leprosy boy's talent made Ma Yiao suspicious, and he made the bronze lotus lantern, apparently to isolate the young man's eavesdropping.

Martin hesitated, saying he didn't smell the demonic spirit.

Unlike Ma Yiao, Martin doesn't care about my feelings and Feihua's feelings, and says "demon" bluntly when he opens his mouth, but fortunately, Feihua and I are not from traditional nightcrawlers, and I don't have any antipathy to this title, and I don't feel too much humiliation.

Ma Yiao asked with some uncertainty: "Then what he just said may be true?" ”

Martin nodded, and said ninety percent, since he is so sure, he must still have mastered something, if this is the case, the content of the notes left by my father is useless, and can only rely on him - however, he said that someone once came to Bald Pass two years ago, and the tunnel collapsed, so who is the person who came?

He was very puzzled, but Ma Yiao made a decision, saying okay, if that's the case, then let's go; Speaking of which, I don't have a good impression of those guys who take people's lives at will.

Ma Yiao is the leader of our small group, and since he has made a decision, everyone has begun to gather together.

It took ten minutes for us to pack up our things and go out, and Fat Flower went to call for someone on the other side, and the boy was already ready, he changed into a thicker dress, tied his leggings with strips of cloth, and tied a red belt with a firewood knife stuck in it.

After the two sides converged, he pointed in the direction of the south and said, "Go there, they won't go far, we should be able to catch up with us." ”

I glanced south, which was in the direction of Bald Ridge.

A group of people set off in the dark, because it was too dark, we prepared torches, lest we accidentally have to fall on a big horse, all four of us were lifting, only the leper boy did not, although his appearance was ugly, his physical fitness was average, but the five senses were developed, and the eyesight at night was also very powerful, and a person led the way in front, like a monkey jumping up and down, very flexible.

Even so, the mountain roads are difficult to walk, especially after heavy rains, and they are full of mud, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a mud puddle, and it is extremely difficult to lift one foot.

Although Feihua sympathized with the leper boy, from the dry campfire, back to the damp and muddy night, her mood suddenly became bad, and after falling several times in a row, she finally began to nag uncontrollably.

My situation is not much better than that of Fat Flower, once I fell down a slope more than five meters high, if it wasn't for the nearby grass and trees, something would really have happened.

But even so, I gritted my teeth and didn't dare to complain.

As Ma Yiao said before, the only person who can help me is myself, if I complain all day long and don't want to take any responsibility, it is better to go home and wait for death.

After marching through the night with such difficulty, after about half an hour, Martin called out to the leper boy: "Hey, the bald col is over there." ”

The boy turned back, his eyes shining a little in the darkness.

He opened his mouth and said, "I don't call him hey, call me Huche." ”

He finally said his name, but Martin didn't care, and continued to point in the direction to the left, saying word by word: "Bald Col is over there." ”

The young man Hu Che stopped, stared at him as well, and said seriously: "I know, but the person we are chasing has gone this way." ”

The two glared at each other, and the atmosphere was deadlocked, and Ma Yiao next to him walked over, patted Martin on the shoulder, and said Okay, follow him.

Martin was reluctant, and said that Bald Ridge was in front of him, and I was going to take a look at where I was going to determine the situation.

After all, he still didn't want to believe this ugly-looking leper boy.

Ma Yiao was stunned for a moment and said this......

He was a little embarrassed, although he had made a conclusion before, but now the bald col was not far away, and if he could go and investigate, he would definitely be able to determine many things.

Thinking of this, he looked at the young Hu Che, but Hu Che did not give an inch, very resolutely, just shook his head, and said no, they had just walked not far, but if we stopped and went to Bald Ridge, we might not be able to meet again......

Ma Yiao didn't speak, he was thinking and weighing, and at this time, Martin said: "In this way, I will go to Bald Pass alone, if it is really as he said, I will put a green signal, and then come to you; But if he tells a lie, I'll set off red fireworks, and you'll come straight over - we've got the Sense Charm, and we should be able to find each other at this distance. ”

This method is a compromise and more operable, Ma Yiao thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

So we parted ways at the junction, Martin continued south, and we headed west.

After separating from Martin, the leper boy Hu Che's steps became more hurried, and in better places, he even trotted all the way to the front to explore the road, and then turned back to urge us, from his tone, I could feel his anxiety, and I could also understand that we were getting closer and closer to the murderer of Hu Che's parents at this moment.

After walking for more than 20 minutes, we came to a stop in front of a waterhole deep in the mountains.

This waterhole is located in the lower reaches of a mountain stream, and there is a stream under the waterhole, and after the rainstorm, the stream of the creek is much wider and spreads, and we go up from the downstream, which is very difficult, and when we arrive here, the leper boy looks very nervous, and only after making sure that there is no one before he dares to approach here.

Soon, he came to a halt in front of a half-man-high boulder, and pulled out a burden from the side.

Ma Yiao stepped forward, saw him rummaging through the baggage, and asked, "What are you anxious about?" ”

The boy pointed to the murky pool and said, "They went in." ”

Yes?

Ma Yiao was a little surprised, and said where to go in?

Along the way, the young man's energy was a little overdrawn, and he trembled all over, but he said word by word: "Hegemony, Down, Secret, Realm!" ”
