Chapter 9: The Pursuit
"I said you're enough, right?! It's been 800 miles from Jiangzhou to Yunzhou, why don't you have this kind of leisure and perseverance? You have to chase me like a mad dog and bite me!"
In the vast Qingping Mountain, a simple and honest young man is constantly shuttling through the dense mountains and forests, and every time he distances himself from the enemy who is chasing him behind him, he can't help but turn his head and sneer at the other party.
"Damn boy, shut up for me! If you don't obediently hand over "Heaven Thief", even if you escape to the edge of the sky, our brother will not let you go!"
A sweaty man with a steel knife gritted his teeth.
"The third child!" the man who followed him glared at the man who spoke. "Don't you see that he's been deliberately provoking us so that we're messing up?"
"But that kid's mouth is so cheap, I want people to tear his mouth apart!" said the man with a look of indignation.
"Now that the news about the appearance of "Heaven Thief" has spread to all parts of the rivers and lakes, if we can't catch this kid this time, maybe we won't have a chance in the future!" said the reprimanded man with a solemn face.
After speaking, the man was silent, and no matter how sarcastic the young man was, he was indifferent.
Really held back?
It's not going to be easy.
When the young man saw that the ridicule was fruitless, he felt helpless in his heart.
After all, the other party chased him for 800 miles, how to say that it is an old acquaintance, and he can't beat him, so he can't escape, and it will be difficult to get rid of him for a while, they are tired, and they are even more tired.
The problem is that he doesn't dare to stop! Everyone knows the consequences of stopping.
As for what they said about "Thief of Heaven", the young man would not hand it over, otherwise why would he flee all the way from Jiangzhou to Yunzhou?
But time was running out for him.
As early as when he entered the boundary of Qingping in Yunzhou, he was keenly aware that a large number of people from the rivers and lakes had poured into the small Qingping County, which was definitely an abnormal thing, according to the news he heard, even if there were traitors in Sizhou in the north, there were very few people from the rivers and lakes who poured into the Qingping territory, but after he arrived in Qingping, these people from the rivers and lakes sprung up.
Doesn't that mean anything?
"Old man, I didn't expect you to drag me down after you died, it looks like I really owe you in my last life!"
The young man touched a hard object clinging to his chest, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"I said you guys were too persistent this time, right? I suspect you haven't even visited the Qinglou for such a long time before! But to me, a delicate young man who is harmless to animals, you have always insisted on leaking, right...... Do you really have a hobby for that......? You guys are terrible!"
In the end, the teenagers who fled around the mountains and forests for an unknown number of times showed symptoms of detachment, their thighs seemed to be filled with lead, and the men who were chasing behind him were even more miserable, their faces were pale, their lips were blue, and their steps were even more staggering, and they could fall to the ground and die suddenly at any time.
But their perseverance is really beyond the imagination of the teenagers, and they are still chasing after this level.
The young man looked back at the men behind him, and the ridicule on his lips was already weak.
"Boy, give up, we won't let you go again if you say anything this time. ”
One of the men saw the young man who was also unable to escape, and a hideous smile was forced on his ugly face.
"Hey, do you really think I can't escape?"
The boy said with a seemingly stiff mouth.
"Boy, do you think we haven't learned enough lessons from you these days?" the man, who still had a little strength left, sneered. "We admit that you are outstanding, but unfortunately your endurance is limited after all, once we can force to the limit of your endurance, it is still unknown who will die!"
“...... Well, I didn't expect you guys to have brains. ”
The boy gasped, sweat already soaking his shirt and eyebrows, and his vision gradually began to blur.
It seems that the only way to do it is to resort.
Suddenly, the boy stopped.
"Boy, why don't you run?
Seeing this, the men behind them thought that the other party was finally unable to escape, and they couldn't help laughing proudly with each other.
"Bunch of idiots! Eat grandpa's fart!"
When the men were about to catch the boy, the boy turned around and grimaced at them, and then his feet moved, and he disappeared in front of everyone's eyes with an incredible speed.
"What?"
"He still has the strength to spare?"
"Could it be that he was just kidding us?"
Seeing that the boiled duck had flown away, the men, who had been holding on until now and were no longer able to chase down, suddenly collapsed to the ground in despair.
"Big brother...... What do we do next?"
The man holding the steel knife looked at the expressionless man sitting on the grass in front of him with a bitter face.
"We'll get the word out there!"
The man said with a fierce look on his face.
"I believe that kid can't have the strength to escape, he must have used some secret technique to squeeze his body at the last moment, usually the consequences of using this secret technique are great, it is estimated that he will not be able to recover without ten days and a half months, he can only temporarily hide in this mountain to recuperate, since we have failed, then we must not let him have a good time!"
"Big brother, are we really going to give up?"
The man on the side was unwilling.
"What else can you do if you don't give up? As far as I know, many hidden world sects have not resisted the temptation of "Heaven Stealing Decision" and dispatched their disciples, not to mention that people from other famous sects have rushed to the Qingping Mountain Realm, even if there is no us, they will find out about that kid's whereabouts sooner or later!"
The eldest man finally lay down tired, and he looked at the sky that was gradually darkening, and his eyes flashed with indescribable sadness.
No one likes to fail, and no one likes to give up.
What if you don't like it?
Because they simply don't have the strength and confidence to fight anymore.
There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't want it.
The man has long passed the age of stunned youth, and he knows that the result of forcing it is tantamount to suicide.
Instead of that, it's better to just let go and give yourself a good time.
But he would never give that kid pleasure!
Meanwhile.
The boy was sitting under a tree, staring blankly at the sky above him, babbling to himself.
"It's going to be over, it's going to be over, the master is really going to be finished this time, I didn't expect that the first attempt to use the secret technique recorded in "Heaven Stealing Decision" would have such serious consequences, and now the body can't even move a finger, in case of misfortune to encounter a beast that comes out to forage at night, how can this be done? Do you ask the beast grandfather not to eat me? That would be too embarrassing for the master...... By the way, isn't it rumored that there is a mountain god in Qingping Mountain? Hey, Grandpa Mountain God, did you hear my call? Please, please do it so that you can save my life......
"You're calling me?"
