386 tracking

Dozens of adventurous teams from the Ice Barren Town were scattered and disappeared into the vast ice field like small droplets.

Out of the Ice Desert Town, more than ten members of the Lou clan's team, led by Lou Qing's fox marquis, went all the way to the depths of the Ice Desert Ancient Land to search for the Northern Ice Musk Ox with little trace.

Lou Yu, the martial king, walked at the front of the team to open the way.

On the way, most of the martial princes in the team were silent, just carefully searching for the footprints of various beasts on the snow surface for more than ten miles around. It's not easy to go to the Ice Barren Ancient Land, of course, you have to hunt as much prey as possible and earn more Yuan Stones.

It had been a snowstorm for almost the whole night last night, and it had just stopped in the morning, and if there were any traces of animal feet on the snow, it must have been the latest footprints.

Ye Fan didn't talk much, and he didn't care much about hunting. Only occasionally glanced at the distance dozens of miles away, and an invisible golden light passed in his eyes, and disappeared.

Lou Qing, a wonderful girl and martial artist, is always glued to Gu Xinyue's side. She is very active, always chattering and talking to Gu Xinyue.

Ever since the Purple Xuan Imperial City came to this ancient land of ice where birds don't, she has been suffocated for the past few months.

The environment of this icy desolate ancient land is harsh, and cultivation is difficult, and most of the martial cultivators who have been cultivating here all year round will not pay too much attention to the appearance, only talking about the strength and hard fists.

The martial arts men who stay here all the year round behave rudely, heroic, rough, and informal, often drink wine and eat meat, and are full of wine and meat, and are unkempt. The women are also charming and gorgeously dressed.

This faction and the Lou brothers and sisters from the Zixuan Dynasty, the two sons of the family, are not all the way at all.

Lou Qing didn't like the martial cultivators here, and she didn't even have anyone to chat with on weekdays. Her brother also has an elm head, and he can only cultivate with his head bored.

Now that Gu Xinyue and Ye Fan appeared, it obviously surprised Lou Qing.

Gu Xinyue's phoenix eyes are starry, clear and beautiful, like a fairy of the gods, which makes her feel breathtaking. Although Ye Fan is not handsome, he is also clean and refreshing, which is completely different from the martial cultivators who stay here all year round.

The more she talked to Gu Xinyue, the more she agreed, and she couldn't stop with one mouth.

Gu Xinyue just smiled lightly, most of the time she listened patiently, and occasionally praised one or two sentences, which made Lou Qing overjoyed and became a confidant.

Ye Fan listened to their chatting all the way, and soon understood the situation of this Lou team.

The squad was a completely improvised grouping.

The Lou siblings planned to hunt for their mother's precious Arctic musk materials as a birthday gift, and after arriving at the Ice Wasteland a few months ago, they gathered some Sanwu Marquis from the Grand Inn, and over the course of a few months, they cobbled together such a loose team of adventurers.

Most of these martial marquis used to hunt and cultivate alone in the outer edge of the Ice Desolate Ancient Land, and did not follow the Martial King.

Now Lou Yu, a martial king, is willing to take them and lead the team to hunt in the depths of the Ice Desolate Ancient Land, and this martial king doesn't want any other prey except for the Northern Ice Musk. Naturally, they are happy and willing to join.

But how can the Northern Ice musk ox be so easy to hunt, even adventurers with decades of hunting experience in the Ice Wasteland may not be able to find their traces.

The Lou team would go into the Ice Wasteland almost every month to find the whereabouts of the Northern Ice Musk Ox, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful.

This may be the last time they will enter the Ice Wasteland to look for traces of the Northern Ice Musk Ox.

If they can't hunt the North Ice musk ox again this time, seeing that their mother's birthday will be in a few months, I'm afraid that the Lou brothers and sisters will have to return empty-handed.

The Ice and Snow Field is more difficult to walk than ordinary ground, and it also searches for traces of the orcs along the way, stopping and walking. At the end of this day, the Lou team had only traveled thousands of miles.

In this ancient land of ice waste, the sky is overcast, the land is surrounded by snowfields, and the map hardly plays a role in guiding the direction, and it is completely dependent on the fox marquis to lead the way.

What made Ye Fan strange was that Lou Qing seemed to have inexplicable hostility towards him.

She and Gu Xinyue can still talk and laugh along the way, as if they are sisters. But as soon as he turned his face to look at him, he immediately made a cold face, proud, and quite disdainful.

This made Ye Fan completely incomprehensible, wondering when he had offended this little woman.

Fortunately, he didn't plan to deal with Lou Qing either, so he didn't bother to delve into his willingness.

After listening to Lou Qing's chatter for a whole day, Ye Fan no longer cared about the situation of this team, and while following the team, his mind was all about comprehending the heart of ice martial arts.

He was surprised to find that in this cold and icy ancient land, the ice vitality was very active. His own divine thoughts have become very sensitive to the extremely active ice vitality here.

This was very helpful for him to comprehend the mystery of the ice system.

Before Wuhou, he awakened the ice bloodline and awakened the ice martial spirit, but this was purely a use of ice vitality.

He had ice energy in his body to use, but he didn't know what the essence of ice energy was.

However, the heart of martial arts is already a comprehension and awakening involving the original true meaning of the vitality. Only by comprehending the mystery of the heart of the ice martial arts can one break through the realm of the Ice Warrior King.

This kind of comprehension and awakening of the heart of martial arts cannot be awakened by the words of other martial kings. Like an ignorant newborn toddler, telling him that the water is cold and the fire is burning, this is useless, and he still doesn't know the difference. Only if he touched it himself could he understand what it was like.

This kind of realization and awakening is often born in an instant.

The vast majority of martial arts marquis have not been able to awaken the heart of martial arts and feel the true meaning of vitality in their lives.

Because of this, Ye Fan needs to comprehend wholeheartedly, use his divine thoughts to "touch" the active ice vitality floating in the air as much as possible, and comprehend the true meaning of the ice vitality.

For several days, the Lou clan team went thousands of miles deep into the Ice Wasteland, tracking the traces of the beast clan every day, and hunting all kinds of fierce beasts in the Ice Wasteland.

The sky was getting darker.

The Lou team set up camp, surrounded a small circular village with a fence on the snowfield, and set up more than ten tents. This fence didn't have much effect on the martial cultivators above the realm of this martial marquis, it was mainly a habit of guarding against wild beasts in the wild.

Afterwards, the martial cultivators raised several bonfires, roasted the high-level beast meat they had hunted, drank spirits lively, and warmed their bodies while eating barbecued meat.

In front of Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue's tent, a bonfire was raised, and the two of them were roasting around the bonfire.

At this time, I saw Lou Qing with a happy face, and ran over from the camp tent not far away, "Sister Xinyue, this is the snow rabbit meat I roasted with my own hands, I have been practicing barbecue for several months, can you taste it!"

Along the way, Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue did not hunt the fierce beasts, and the beast meat hunted by the natural team was not shared by the two of them.

Lou Qing handed Gu Xinyue a fragrant beast meat that she had roasted with her own hands.

Then, she glared at Ye Fan fiercely, handed Ye Fan the bloody beast meat inserted in a dead branch, and said, "Oh, this is your beast meat, roast it yourself!"

Subsequently, she seemed to be very proud of Ye Fan for her success, and happily went back to continue the barbecue.

Ye Fan took the beast meat wordlessly.

"How did you offend her?"

Gu Xinyue is strange.

"I don't know, this little girl didn't like me from the beginning, and she didn't give me a good look. I guess I was born to rush..."

Ye Fan shook his head and didn't care.

He didn't know at all, just because when the inn met for the first time, he didn't look at Lou Qing, who thought she was quite beautiful, and she kept complaining about it.

If he knew that this was the reason, he would probably vomit blood in depression.

"Forget it, I'll bake it for you!"

Gu Xinyue took the raw meat in Ye Fan's hand and smoked it on the bonfire intently, sprinkling some condiments and salt. It didn't take long for the large pieces of animal meat to begin to smell in bursts.

"Xinyue, do you still have barbecue?"

Ye Fan asked about the fragrance, and couldn't help but move his index finger, and couldn't help but be surprised.

He used to practice in the deep mountains of Luyang, and often barbecued meat by himself, and when he smelled the fragrance, he knew that the roast was very delicious. It takes a lot of experience to be able to be roasted by this beast's meat.

It's just that I didn't expect that Gu Xinyue, the pavilion master of the Beast Emperor Pavilion, had so many subordinates, and she would actually barbecue her own meat.

"Of course! I used to roast a lot when I was younger. ”

Gu Xinyue couldn't help but smile, her cheeks were smiling, and the glow was rippling.

As she was talking, she seemed to remember the past again, she was depressed, and said quietly: "Back then, my father failed to compete for the position in the Purple Phoenix Sect and was expelled from the Purple Phoenix Sect, and my father's opponent in the sect also sent people to chase and kill us all the way.

My father took me and forced me to hide in Tibet, and even spent his days in the wilderness all year round, and it was at that time that I learned to barbecue with my father. It wasn't until later that my father was seriously injured, and they probably thought that my father was no longer a threat, so they gave up the pursuit, and we slowly gained a foothold in the ancestral god ancient land.

That's it, don't talk about this, when I become the Fengzu Martial Emperor, sooner or later I will avenge my father. This snow rabbit meat is already grilled, you can taste it. ”

She shook her head, sobbed and smiled, and handed it to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan took it with a smile and took a bite, this barbecue meat was fragrant and tender, and it was delicious.

He didn't say anything about the barbecue, but he thought about it and said lightly: "Someone is following, the sky is very gloomy tonight, and it is estimated that it will snow, which is a good opportunity for a night attack." Be careful at night. ”

"Who's stalking us?"

A look of surprise flashed in Gu Xinyue's eyes, she didn't notice that someone was following the team at all. Searching around with his thoughts, he didn't see anything abnormal.

Ye Fan shook his head: "In the past few days, there has been a team hanging dozens of miles away, and it has not appeared in our field of vision, so it is normal not to notice." It is estimated that it is the martial arts cultivator in the inn of the ice desert town, and there are all kinds of people in that place! ”

He was using Emperor Yin's golden pupils, and there were already a few faint groups of vitality dozens of miles away, and if he had been following him, he realized that the Lou clan team was being followed.

This distance was beyond the visual distance, and even the Martial King's divine thoughts could not detect it.

But since the other party can still follow so far away, it is obvious that there is a means of tracking.

"Is that team coming for us, or is it coming for the team of the Lou brothers and sisters?"

Gu Xinyuedai's eyebrows frowned slightly, giving birth to murderous intent.

If it was for her and Ye Fan, it was likely to be someone from the Purple Phoenix Sect. If so, then only kill.

"I paid close attention to the fact that there have been a few Wuhou in the loose team of the Lou clan who have left slight traces in the snow behind their backs, like boot mud on their feet, which is a special gray grass ash with a special smell, and the first day is enough to identify the snow we have walked on, and we will not mistake the traces left by other teams in the snow.

There are also stops and stops along the way, and the blood stains after hunting fierce beasts are usually buried with thick snow to avoid being targeted by other people or beasts.

But they always take turns leaving a small amount of blood on the surface of the snow and so on.

These traces were very light, and even if they were caught, they could argue that they had left them unintentionally, not to make it easier for the team behind them to follow.

These Wuhou were already in the Lou clan before we came to Ice Wilderness Town, and they should have come for the Lou brothers and sisters. We just happened to be on this team!"

Ye Fan said lightly, "Don't be in a hurry, let's take a look at the situation first!"

Gu Xinyue understood. She and Ye Fan had just come to Ice Wilderness Town, and it was not very likely that they would be targeted so quickly.

The Lou brothers and sisters have been in the Ice Desert Town for several months, and the children of the family who came from the Imperial City, and they are even more high-profile than them, have long been targeted by some greedy martial cultivators here.

This Lou clan team has recruited a total of more than a dozen Wuhou, and among them, they were actually mixed in by several Wuhou spies, which is really a failure.
