Chapter 41: Tracking

Lin Qi woke up and saw the old couple gone, and the wooden house was empty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yinzhu rubbed her sleepy eyes, confused, not knowing what was going on.

The clothes of the two were neatly stacked aside, they had been dried and flattened, and there were two servings of food on the table, obviously for Lin Qi and Yinzhu, and under the porcelain bowl, there were two sides of paper, which were letters left for the two.

To the effect that the two old men have lived in seclusion for a long time, they have already bid farewell to the disputes in the rivers and lakes, and yesterday they were forced to take action in order to save themselves, which is considered to be a break from the previous agreement, so they plan to leave here and find another secluded place to live, and they are also in various considerations without saying goodbye, and they are afraid that Lin Qi will feel guilty when they hear it, as for this wooden house, it will be disposed of by Lin Qi and the two, if there is no place to go for the time being, the two can continue to live here, and there are still some rations left in the cupboard, but they can eat for a few days.

On the other piece of paper, the old woman promised to teach Yinzhu the "white water fresh" formula, because she was in a hurry, she didn't have time to teach, so she wrote it all down. Unexpectedly, the old woman said that she would do it, without delay, and the formula was handed over to Yinzhu for safekeeping.

Although this wooden house is a good place to live, Lin Qi has something to do now and can't stay for a long time, so he simply sorted it out, put the rations on a burden, and set foot on the road back to Jieliu Town with Yinzhu.

In Boyan Lake, there are broken ice ballasts, connected together, even after a night, they are not completely frozen, as Grandpa Qiao said. Lin Qi hesitated again and again, for the sake of safety, he still decided to bypass the lake, as the so-called sharpening knife does not cut wood, if he fell into the frozen lake again, wouldn't it be even more troublesome.

After about an hour, the sun was getting higher, and the two of them walked along the lake, and they had come to the north of Boyan Lake, as long as they crossed the small hill in front of them, they were not far from Jieliu Town.

At this time, in the woods not far away, there was a sudden sound of eager footsteps, stepping on the snow, a deep foot shallow and a shallow foot fluttering, and when I looked closely, I saw two middle-aged men, through the woods, running towards this side, looking at their figure and footwork, probably where the monk was.

Yinzhu had long hidden her eye-catching hair in her hood, and now the two of them were dressed like brothers and sisters from ordinary peasant families.

The two monks strode and soon came to the front, Yinzhu was a little scared, and couldn't help but shrink up, Lin Qi smiled and lightly covered her by his side.

"Hey, little kid, have you ever seen a big man in black, probably so tall and strong, carrying a smoking hammer, walking and shaking?" one of the monks gestured back and forth with his hands, learning the way the man walked, and the other looked at Lin Qi expectantly, but the latter shook his head innocently, making them quite disappointed.

"If you dare to swallow the spirit beast privately, see if I don't skin him alive!"

"Let's go, this guy is mediocre, he won't be able to escape!"

The two of them were resentful all the way, gritted their teeth, and after not getting the answer they hoped for, they turned around and left, looking very eager, and kept mentioning the words spirit beast, white fox, and swallowing alone, which made Lin Qi quite surprised, the purpose of these people coming here is not to stay in the spirit beast frost fox near the town, listen to their meaning, someone should be the first to get there, and the frost fox has been captured.

I didn't expect decent people to have such greedy, ruthless, and even villains who couldn't even see others better than themselves.

"Seventh brother, will it be ......?"

Yinzhu's eyes were sad, obviously thinking the same as Lin Qi, since he was sure that the sleeping owner of the tomb was Yinzhu's father, then this frost fox must also be one of the ones that Yinzhu's father had raised.

"Don't worry, it's okay, the frost fox is a spirit beast, and the person who captured him is to keep it for himself, and he won't hurt it. "Lin Qi once heard the old man Ji Xinghai say that the frost fox is cold, the main wood of the five elements, not only is it a good hand to find and hide, it is said to be with him, and there is also the help of meditation and recuperation, and the help of the stable realm, it can be said that it is the best pet beast in practice, and those who get him will be like a treasure, how dare not cherish it.

However, speaking of which, isn't this tall man with a smoking hammer exactly the black-clothed man He Xiong that Lin Qi met, and Yinzhu also had a relationship with him in the inn that day.

Now there are two ways in front of Lin Qi, one is to rush back to the town as soon as possible and meet Firefly and Grandpa Ji, and the other is to find He Xiong and find a way to take the frost fox away.

Lin Qi was hesitating, but he didn't expect a few more people to come over and ask Lin Qi the same question, and after getting a disappointed return, several people left with regret and resentment.

It seems that this He Xiong's popularity is really not good, he was already unpopular, but he didn't expect that after catching the frost fox, he attracted so many covetous spirit beasts and wanted to take them for himself.

Yinzhu was very worried about the safety of the silver fox, a little face was sad, and the sorrow between her brows was almost untouchable, Lin Qi looked at her, and also felt that the little girl was pitiful and distressing, so she thought about it carefully and decided to rescue the frost fox first, maybe the little girl heard about the frost fox and would find it.

By the way, find Xiaobai to send a message, this is not far from Jieliu Town, and I think Xiaobai should be nearby.

Thinking of this, Lin Qi smiled slightly, suddenly raised his chest and raised his head, and let out a crisp long roar, this is their usual slogan to call Luan Falcon, usually within a moment, Xiaobai will appear from the top of his head, but this time, Lin Qi stood in place and waited for tea time, but still did not see Luan Falcon's figure.

It's strange, it stands to reason that Xiaobai won't run around.

Lin Qi was thinking about it, but he didn't expect that at this time, the little girl next to him suddenly pulled the corner of his clothes, Lin Qi looked back at her, and between the silver beads pointed to a black figure with a big fist in the distance, and said, "Seventh brother, there seems to be someone over there." ”

Lin Qi looked at it intently, and sure enough, he was really a person, looking at his figure, it seemed that he was still a little familiar.

At this time, the black shadow seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly fled, Lin Qi was taken aback, could it be that the other party also discovered himself? You must know that he is high in the mountains and forests, and the other party is on the slope of the mountain without shelter, which is more difficult to be discovered than between himself.

Seeing that he is tall and dressed in black, he may be the person he is looking for.

"Come, Yinzhu, I'll carry you away!" Lin Qi took a cat's waist, half-squatted down, Yinzhu knew that he was slow in his tutorial and dragged his seventh brother back, so he didn't say much, and jumped on Lin Qi's back, the little girl was young and small, basically had no weight, Lin Qi carried her very easily, and immediately let go of her steps, chasing in the direction where the black shadow disappeared, even if she stepped on the loose snow, she was also walking like flying.

Yutianzong's body method, called Mirror Flower Water Moon, does not pursue the ultimate speed, emphasizes the unity of movement and static, and the human environment is hand in hand, seemingly simple and ordinary movements, in fact, it is clever and dark, extremely difficult to distinguish, and it does not seem to be obvious in the flat road, but in an environment such as rain and snow, there is room for special play.

Moreover, the big man who looked like He Xiong in front of him was also extremely ordinary, and it only took a little time for Lin Qi to find his traces and follow him from a distance.

Lin Qi didn't dare to get too close, for fear that he would chase after him in a hurry, and the other party would jump over the wall in a hurry and do something extremely irrational.

Thinking of what He Xiong said that day, Lin Qi planned to communicate with the other party first, thinking that he was not a completely unreasonable person, and he should be willing to help himself.

At this moment, He Xiong suddenly stopped and dropped out of place, which also startled Lin Qi, who was following him. Along the way, Lin Qi deliberately hid his figure, and did not rush to expose it, thinking that the other party had discovered him, so he stood still in the distance, thinking about how to speak after a while.

"Hehehe, there's nowhere to escape!"

At this moment, a soft and weak laughter suddenly came from in front of He Xiong, and a Qianqian figure slowly walked out of the forest, holding a plum blossom paper fan, covering his mouth, revealing only a pair of peach blossom-like eyes.

"Seventh brother, it's that stinky sister!" The person who came was the woman from the Fan Pavilion who had seen in the inn that day, Cui Yuluo, who was disgusted by the little girl.

It turned out that he hadn't found himself, Lin Qi saw that he hadn't been exposed, so he and Yinzhu were lying in the dark, and now there were many people, and it was inconvenient to go out, so Lin Qi planned to take a look at the situation first, and then say, at this time, around He Xiong, people kept coming out, there were green shirts and white shirts, and everyone had a paper fan in their hands, some painted blue birds and flying fish, and some painted eyebrows and branches, the first person, holding a white paper fan, with a handsome face, was Liu Changfeng who painted the fan pavilion.

The three men and eight women present were all smiling, and they surrounded He Xiong before and after, and everyone looked at He Xiong's eyes as if they were looking at a turtle in an urn.

He Xiong stood in place, carrying the Seven Exquisite Hammer behind his back, his hands empty, his chest bulging, and he didn't know what was hidden.

"The surname is He, you have nowhere to run this time, whether we have a new hatred, just hate, I advise you to hand over the spirit fox quickly, although I will not let you go, but it can make your death less painful!"

Between the words, Liu Changfeng smiled playfully, put away the painting fan, and walked towards He Xiong, who lowered his head the whole time, motionless, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

In a study where I don't know where, there was a man standing, looking at a letter in his hand, silent, at this time, Hua Qiyuan gently knocked on the open door and walked in.

"Demon Lord, the Yellow Divine Envoy wants to see you, and it seems that he is about to die. ”

"Hmph, the waste of not enough success and more than failure, let him wait!"

Seeing that the demon lord was angry, Hua Qiyuan was silent for a while, standing aside, and neither left nor stayed.

"How are you preparing for the things I have arranged?"

"Demon Lord, everything is arranged, just wait for the monks of Jieliu Town to take the bait. ”

"Well, very good!" At this time, the man's tone calmed down a little, and he glanced at the letter in his hand again, "You go and find the sword ghost brothers, take over Huang Feng's affairs, and then report the fact that Qiao Yin and his wife are still alive to the main hall and present it to the door master for inspection!"

Hua Qiyuan responded, stepped back and walked out, not daring to look up the whole time.

The man chuckled, grabbed the letter in his hand with five fingers, and the paper spontaneously combusted without fire and burned to the ground.

"The show begins!"
