Chapter 316: First Meeting
Meng Qi was unmoved, not dazzled by the people who came in and out, although everyone could leave with a message for the wolf king, but he didn't roar and chose to follow the most cringe-looking and suspicious person.
Because he is sure that the wolf king has caused public outrage on the grassland, even if the noble shamans who are high above may not care too much, but the victims like Agoura, who are neither high nor low, and the young masters who are terrified because of the wolf king, if they unite, are enough to tear apart Narisu, so if he doesn't want to become the target of public criticism, the contact with the wolf king must be handed over to his henchmen or even done personally, and there is no possibility of news leaking!
Of course, all the premise is that Risu did indeed collect intelligence for the wolf king.
Meng Qi waited patiently, like a hunter who had accumulated years, there was no impetuousness in his heart, the people who entered the tent, and the people who left in a hurry, all appeared clearly in his mind, and disappeared without a trace, they were all ordinary subordinates of Nari Su, and none of them could be called henchmen.
The winter day was gloomy and there was no sun, and after half an hour, the number of people began to decrease and the snow pressed on the top of the tent, making Meng Qi's whole body feel cold.
Suddenly, a figure jumped into Meng Qi's sight, he was wearing a wolf's fur and a big coat, his head was lowered, he came out as if he was normal, he exhaled a cold breath, and walked towards the position of Old Un's tent, as if he was going to have a drink.
According to the information of Agoura and Temur, this is Nari Su's confidant, nicknamed "Missing Ears", who committed a master in his early years and was cut off two ears.
Meng Qi looked at the top of the tent next to him, just in time to meet Temur's line of sight, bowed slightly, motioned for him to follow, and continued to wait by himself.
The warriors of the steppe were all hunters in their early years, and Temur slid down silently, far away with "missing ears".
After a while, Meng Qi's gaze froze, because that day Su quietly left from the back of the tent. If it weren't for the fact that the little pigtails with great personality could not be completely covered, Meng Qi would be a little afraid to recognize it.
True air swirling, snow that melted into ice, Meng Qi slid from the top of the tent like a normally falling piece of snow, following the steps of Na Risu.
On that day Su first went to the place where the small tribes gathered, picked up horses, and went to the most chaotic tent areas, which were inhabited by dead cattle who had to be sold into slavery or survived by the skin and meat business.
After getting bad news about the wolf king, it was so abnormal. I'm afraid it really has something to do with him...... Meng Qi followed from afar, changing his appearance and decoration from time to time, paying attention to everyone who came into contact with Nari Su.
Walking and walking, Narisu returned to his tent!
He deliberately led us around in circles, was the person who sent the message "missing ears"? Or was it my henchman who followed him out of the tent while he was away? How do I find this?
Meng Qi was shocked, and was about to go to Temur to make peace with him, when his heart suddenly moved, and he hid in a hidden place again.
It was impossible for Su to guess how many people were watching that day. This kind of trick of turning around in waves can easily fail.
On the contrary, his sudden return to the tent would make people think that the operation had failed, and the messenger had already left, so that he relaxed his guard and searched for someone everywhere!
Half a tea time has passed. It seemed that only one more person came out of Nari Su's tent.
He wore a wolfskin hat and a thick jacket, like the most ordinary herdsman, but there was a distinct feature on his face that could not be concealed. The left side has no glossy eye.
"One-eyed", another confidant of Su that day!
Meng Qi was calm and quietly embellished with "one-eyed". With him on a whirlwind.
After feeling rid of the possible stalker, One-Eye suddenly accelerated, heading towards the periphery of Gegengol.
The white snow pressed the grassland, and even if the one-eyed man showed his strength, he would inevitably leave a few traces.
Meng Qi followed from a distance, and only needed to pass before the trail of falling snowflakes disappeared.
And every time his toes touch the ground, he steps on the faint footprints of "One-Eye", even if "One-Eye" turns back, or there is a stalker behind him, he will be ignored because there is "no trace".
Chasing and killing a person like the Wolf King, who is good at sneaking attacks and escaping, must not be careless, maybe everyone who passes information to him will be quietly followed by him for a while?
"I actually left Gegen Gaoler, and I thought it would be passed layer by layer, and even used a harrier ......" Meng Qi frowned slightly, "Could it be that the wolf king is nearby?"
This made him even more vigilant, and he did not miss a trace on the road.
Suddenly, Meng Qi sniffled and smelled an extremely faint smell of blood!
He quickened his pace sharply, like a gust of wind, howling forward up the soothing slope.
The top is still white, the lake is wide, and the thick ice is formed, which complements the distant sky, which really makes people feel a sense of the sky and the wilderness, and spontaneously awe of the sky.
Lying on his stomach beside the lake was a man dressed in "one-eyed", the snow on his side dyed red, not yet frozen into ice.
Meng Qi cautiously ran to the vicinity, raised his toes, and turned the "one-eyed" over.
There was a look of disbelief on his face and right eye, and his throat was directly crushed, and his flesh was blurred.
Other than that, there were no other wounds on his body.
"Wolf King!" This familiar feeling made Meng Qi full of vigilance, and his right hand had grasped the hilt of the knife, and every line on it was clearly highlighted in his heart.
The Wolf King is really nearby!
But why did he kill "One-Eye"? Did he sense the approach of danger? Meng Qi clenched the hilt of his sword, trembling slightly, full of battle intent At the same time, he also had a deep question,
According to the distance he followed, the wolf king is unlikely to find himself!
Could it be that his sense of danger has become so strong?
At this moment, Meng Qi smelled an extremely faint fragrance, like a musky orchid, which lasted for a long time.
He took out his long knife, gently picked it up, and picked out a sachet from the arms of the "one-eyed", which was finely made and exuded a rich fragrance.
"It looks like a special spice??" Meng Qi was stunned at first, and suddenly found that he was also contaminated with this fragrance, and it didn't subside for a long time!
If Meng Qi hadn't reached the realm of "spotless" a long time ago, I'm afraid he wouldn't have discovered the strangeness of this fragrance.
He suddenly realized, why did the wolf king kill the "one-eyed", for the wolf king who is good at concealing his breath, being contaminated with this fragrance is equivalent to self-destructing!
In his heart, I am afraid that he thinks that One-Eyed betrayed him and "assassinated" him with this fragrance!
Is the one-eyed intentional or unintentional?
The spice is special, whether one-eyed intentionally or not, the person who gave him the sachet has bad intentions!
This was a surprise for Meng Qi, who closed his eyes and breathed deeply, discerning the fragrance from the wind.
Strands passed through his nose, clearly separated, Meng Qi opened his eyes suddenly, and jumped to the west, where there was an extremely faint fragrance remaining.
He didn't care about the traces anymore, he completely unfolded his body, followed the fragrance, and ran wildly with all his might!
Although the characteristic of "relying on the void to face the wind" is to turn once in mid-air, it does not mean that it is not good at long-distance running, so Meng Qi's figure is fluttering, like a god, not slow at all - if this is a short board, how could Xuan Bei escape all the way to the Central Plains in the first place?
The fragrance became lighter and weaker, and the wolf king seemed to be trying his best to get rid of it, but the feeling of Meng Qi and his qi pulling became clearer and clearer, and it seemed that after closing his eyes, a running figure would appear in his "sight".
You must catch up with him before the scent disappears completely!
The snow is still drifting, covering many traces, the wolf king is like a ghost, and he didn't leave any traces that Meng Qi could find in a hurry, just like he was chasing the air, if it weren't for the fragrance and a little bit, the feeling of air machine traction was still there, and Meng Qi would even suspect that he was chasing in the wrong direction.
A gust of cold wind blew, and the last trace of fragrance drifted away, and Meng Qi could only rely on that vague intuition to continue to trace.
There were a series of footprints left on the snow, and the strange thing is that only Meng Qi's!
In Meng Qi's heart, the tall and thin figure kept walking, revealing a faint killing intent, if it weren't for the scruples of another ambush, I'm afraid he would have turned back to hunt a long time ago.
Tempering his soul and overcoming his anxiety, the more Meng Qi chases, the more he seems to be like a rock, and his heart is like a peaceful lake, like the most seasoned hunter.
Xuehua squinted, but it felt closer and closer, Meng Qi's hand holding the knife stretched slightly, close to the rhythm of the wind, and was about to follow the traction of the qi machine.
Suddenly, as if night had fallen, the traction of the qi engine was cut off, and Meng Qi's intuition was no longer the figure of the wolf king!
"And this hand, why didn't you use it earlier?" Meng Qi was fully on guard to prevent the wolf king from attacking.
He examined the traces, and the speed of the chase had to slow down, and unless he carefully discerned it, he would not be able to find the clues left by the wolf king.
After chasing for a while, at such a speed, the traces in front had already been completely eliminated.
Meng Qi let out a sigh and could only admit that he had lost it.
In this regard, the wolf king does have a unique talent and ability.
"I'm afraid that there is a certain price to pay for the hand that breaks the entanglement of the qi machine, otherwise the wolf king should use it after removing the fragrance. Meng Qi discerned the location and looked for a way back to Gegengol.
The sky is blue, the grassland is vast, the snow is white, and the surroundings are almost the same, Meng Qi almost didn't know where he was, but fortunately he had a good sense of direction, combined with all kinds of knowledge, and slowly sketched out in his mind the route he had taken after leaving Gegengaoler, first to the north, and then to the west and south......
"Hey, as long as you go back to the east directly, it's Gegen Gaoler!" Meng Qi was shocked, he chased the wolf king in a big circle?
"Not true. He suddenly narrowed his eyes, "It was the wolf king who led me around in half a circle, didn't he want to leave Gegengol in the depths of his consciousness?"
If the wolf king didn't think so, going northwest and going deep into the grassland was the best choice, so why bother going around in circles?
"He's going to take revenge...... He felt that Su betrayed him that day?" Meng Qi's pupils contracted, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he raised his knife and returned to the east.
As he approached the tent area of Gegengol, Meng Qi saw Temur.
As soon as he saw Meng Qi, he hurriedly greeted him: "Have you discovered?"
"He's nearby, but he's lost. Meng Qi said calmly.
Temur sighed: "The cunning prey can always escape, but the hunter must not be discouraged, as long as he has enough patience and calmness, he will definitely be able to catch it." ”
"Yes. Meng Qi nodded slightly.
This is a tempering of one's martial will and heart. (To be continued......)
