Chapter 0137: Woodcutter
Ma Tianjiao, Huo Linfang, Huang Yuan and Jiao Ruzhen walked on the mountain road dejectedly.
A sense of loss was written all over their worried faces.
Just now, the four people, who were still a little unwilling, used all their strength to rush straight down from the top of the mountain.
Hopefully I can get away with catching up with the guy who escaped.
It's a pity that the heart of luck is the heart of luck after all...... The odds of success are bound to be much less than failure.
In the end, I couldn't even see a shadow, let alone catch up.
There's no more to be gained......
At this moment, they were sullen and silently walking back and forth.
However.
In the next moment, Ma Tianjiao's eyelids, who were walking with his heart in mind, jumped suddenly.
His eyes flashed, and he quickly looked up.
Just now, Ma Tianjiao heard a movement coming from that place!
"Could it be that the guy who escaped didn't go far? ……”
Before he had time to think about it, he rushed over with an arrow and quickly ran into the grass of that place.
This startled Huang Yuan, Jiao Ruzhen, and Huo Linfang next to them, and they hurriedly jumped over to see what was going on.
This one jumped past and found out.
It turned out that on the other side of the grass, there was another path that could go down and up the mountain.
In front of Ma Tianjiao, a woodcutter-like person was frightened by the four figures that suddenly came out and fell to the ground, his face pale.
"You guys! …… What do you want to do?! …… I don't have any silver on me!! ”
It turned out that this woodcutter had robbed Ma Tianjiao and the four of them as bandits......
Ma Tianjiao, who was standing at the forefront, realized that he was too nervous, and as a result, he was so reckless and gaffe, which scared ordinary civilians.
So he showed a look of shame on his face, and hurriedly apologized to the woodcutter, "I'm really sorry! Scares you...... We're not bad guys, we're demon slayers...... A task is being worked on here. ”
When the woodcutter heard this, his face softened slightly.
got up from the ground, looked at Ma Tianjiao's outfits and the four of them, and asked very curiously, "Are you really demon slayers?" …… What are you doing here? ”
Ma Tianjiao nodded, "We are indeed demon slayers, and we received a report that there are dead people in this mountain, and the death is weird, so we came to take a look, and found that there are demons in the mountains and forests to sacrifice zombies!"
When the woodcutter heard this, his face changed greatly, "What?!" …… Is this mountain so terrifying?! ……”
Ma Tianjiao was really lucky to see him an ordinary civilian walking around in this mountain forest, but he was not poisoned.
So he persuaded, "This mountain forest is indeed extremely dangerous! I advise you to leave quickly, lest you get into trouble and become the next victim. ”
The woodcutter was also quite frightened when he heard this, and thanked again and again: "Thank you for the reminder!" I'll go now! ”
So the woodcutter hurriedly took up the burden of firewood and prepared to leave.
But after a few steps, he turned back again.
Xiang Ma Tianjiao and the four said, "When I went down the mountain just now, I saw a man wearing a hat walking into the cave, if the mountain is not peaceful, that person is probably in danger!" Please also remind this person of the demon slayers, lest he suffer misfortune! ”
The woodcutter's words immediately made Ma Tianjiao's faces change.
Ma Tianjiao hurriedly asked, "When did you see that person wearing a hat?!"
The woodcutter thought for a moment, and replied, "About two sticks of incense......
At this time, Ma Tianjiao, Huang Yuan, Jiao Ruzhen, and Huo Linfang were overjoyed.
Before the two pillars of incense, it was when they watched the guy who was refining zombies flee!
At that time, the four of them had given up the chase, feeling that they couldn't catch up with that speed at all.
But.
I obviously saw that the guy had already flown down the mountain, but I didn't expect the woodcutter to see him enter the cave!
What does this mean?!
This means that guy is still in this mountain forest!
"So cunning! ……”
Ma Tianjiao and the four of them glanced at each other.
Huang Yuan then approached the woodcutter, "We know! Hurry up and leave, and when you go back, warn people not to go into this forest for a while! ”
The woodcutter nodded again and again, "Good! …… I'll go now! When I went back, I told them not to go into the mountains! ”
In response, he carried the burden of firewood and hurried down the hill along the path.
At this moment, after sending the woodcutter down the mountain, Ma Tianjiao and the four of them got together again and began to discuss in secret.
"What's next? Or do you repeat the old trick and go straight to the roundup? ”
At this time, Jiao Ruzhen asked in a low voice.
Ma Tianjiao pondered for a moment, but shook his head, "This opponent is cunning and resourceful!" And the strength is extraordinary! If the four of us were to round up again, I'm afraid we would still suffer the previous defeat! ……”
When Huang Yuan heard this, he frowned on the side, "Then what should we do?" You can't just let him go, right? ”
Ma Tianjiao continued, "Of course you can't let him go! It's just that we'll have to be cautious next! So, in order to make sure that nothing goes wrong, it is better not to startle the snake first! ”
Speaking of this, Ma Tianjiao glanced at Jiao Ruzhen and Huang Yuan, "I decided to stay at the bottom of the mountain with Brother Jiao and Brother Huang Yuan, and set up traps to block the way down the mountain!"
Then he looked at Huo Linfang again, "Miss Huo, you go back to Yunzhou City to slay demons to guard the mansion, and ask the other eight demon slayers to come over and help!"
Huo Linfang listened and nodded.
When the other two heard this, they also agreed and had no objections.
In fact, in the area under Ma Tianjiao's jurisdiction, he was the only one who had Huang Yuan and Jiao Ruzhen, the three demon slayers.
However, due to the fact that there was a big case, the adjacent area asked Huo Linfang to come to help.
At this time, it is the best choice to let her go back, explain the situation, and let the demon slayers in charge of other areas in Yunzhou City come together.
The matter was decided, and the four demon slayers began to act separately.
Since we are waiting for reinforcements to arrive, we must not act rashly and startle the snake!
Everything that is done next must be carried out silently, and there can be no flaws.
Ma Tianjiao also secretly swore that this time he would definitely leave that demon behind!
Use a perfect victory to make up for the sense of loss from previous defeats.
Ma Tianjiao, Jiao Ruzhen and Huang Yuan immediately looked for the necessary way down the mountain at the bottom of the mountain, laying traps and soul power triplines!
They know it.
You have to move fast!
Hopefully, these traps will be set up before reinforcements arrive.
When the time comes, the twelve demon slayers will be rounded up together, plus the traps set up on the road down the mountain, as well as the soul power tripline.
No matter how strong his strength is, no matter how fast he flies, I'm afraid it will be difficult to parry, and he will be caught!
Ma Tianjiao is sure that this time he will definitely be able to make that mysterious demon monster unable to escape this magnificent sky net.
However.
Just when Ma Tianjiao and the three of them were meticulously arranging traps at the bottom of the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain forest, beside the road, behind the shadow of a tree, a figure was standing quietly.
He was dressed like a woodcutter.
At this moment, he hid behind the shadow of the tree, silently looked at the situation in the mountains and forests, and carefully watched the actions of Ma Tianjiao and several demon slayers!
