Chapter 627: Something Important
The yellow horse pulling the cart is full of endurance, but it is inferior to the endurance of the military horse.
And the two are not comparable in speed at all.
Although he ran for about a quarter of an hour in advance, Zhang Xuezhou had already sensed that the rear was getting closer and closer to catch up.
He hadn't even been out of Fuping County for an hour, and he hadn't left the northern area at all.
"Bitter!"
The mount is not strong, and the physical strength is almost exhausted.
For the first time, Zhang Xuezhou felt that his advantage in running away was still insufficient.
"If you have the conditions, you have to learn a flying spell suitable for the Yin and Yang family, if the demon power is gone, at least you can use mana to fly, even if you fly three meters high, it is better than running around in a circle at the moment!"
He slapped his horse's buttocks sullenly, and quickly pondered the abilities he possessed.
Zhang Xuezhou has to say that his skills seem to be many, but he is relatively poor.
It was difficult for even the emperor and the empress to teach him, and the Yin and Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Mantra practiced by Zhang Xuezhou obviously brought too many restrictions.
But if Zhang Xuezhou were to change to other realm cultivation techniques, the situation he faced was not much different, such as the Imperial Beast Sect, such as various sword sects, sword sects, etc.
Unless he entered the Confucian sect, he could not learn all kinds of techniques.
But then again, if he really wants to enter the pit of Confucianism, Zhang Xuezhou doesn't have the time or ability to do a lot of techniques, let alone refine the pills by himself to survive.
No one is omnipotent, even if Dong Zhongshu, a great Confucian who has learned a lot of magic, has repeatedly lost face, and it is difficult for magic to cope with the changing situation.
Zhang Xuezhou was finally relieved, and kept thinking about the help that his ability might bring.
It wasn't until the yellow horse galloped near a big river where the ice and snow had melted that Zhang Xuezhou was happy.
He'd almost drowned once before, but now it's been more than a day or two since he'd returned to the real world.
The body jumped off the yellow horse, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't take off his shoes, and then plunged into the glacial water.
The water-based affinity brought by the water avoidance trick gives Zhang Xuezhou the ability to breathe for a short time in the water, and does not need to come out of the river from time to time to ventilate.
"Shall we chase or not?"
After Zhang Xuezhou went down the river for hundreds of meters, the two horsemen on the riverbank were late.
Looking at the yellow horse grazing grass by the river, the two people on the military horse looked at each other.
The pursued person undoubtedly jumped into the river, but the river was vast, and how could he see the other party at this time.
If they want to go into the water to search, they will inevitably suffer, and whether they can find each other is the question.
Without the guidance of the horseshoe prints in the snow, and the lack of Ning Cheng's casting positioning, they would have lost their tracking target if they chased here.
"Chasing is still going to be chased, he can endure ice water even as a magician, it's impossible that we can't stand it!"
"That makes sense!"
"Let's search upstream, and track downstream!"
"If he swims against the current, he will not be far away!"
"We weren't too far away from him when we were in pursuit, he was a mile downstream at most!"
After a brief exchange, the two dismounted together.
As soon as the armor covered by the body was taken off, the two of them also searched separately for a while.
The icy and biting river water soaked their bodies, and the two of them looked at each other from a distance, and the qi and blood power in their bodies quickly gushed out.
"It's going to freeze to death!"
"We didn't say we were going to kill that kid, could he run for his life like that?"
"That's not it, we can't stand this glacial water, he can't freeze into an ice sculpture if he casts a spell to jump into the river!"
"This chasing person is too sinful!"
"Who let that kid write cheaply and scold Lord Taishou, and he scribbled so much, and the words are very big, so that the people all over the city know about it!"
"Forget it, he didn't name and scold, and my father is not called Li X!"
After a few short conversations, the two of them couldn't help but swim in the river hard, constantly searching for Zhang Xuezhou's figure.
The ice floe kept smashing on the body, and the two of them continued to turn red, revealing cold flesh that turned white from time to time.
Bursts of water vapor continued to emerge on the surface of the river, which also made the faces of the two of them solemn, and the muscles of their bodies couldn't help but let out bursts of unnatural tremors.
This kind of ice and snow weather depends on courage to travel, not to mention that they have been riding horses in the cold wind for a long time, and at this time, the search for this cold and biting river water is undoubtedly worse, and the body has fallen into the support of the near limit.
After nearly half an hour of fruitless searching, both of them couldn't help but crawl back to the riverbank, shivering in the cold wind.
"I can't do it anymore!"
"I can't do it either!"
"That kid shouldn't be even worse, right?"
"Probably somewhere in the river!"
"I want to make a fire and get ...... Heating! ”
"I want to too!"
When the proud body of the martial artist could not support it, the two also fell into an extremely embarrassing situation, and finally had to hold the military horse to keep warm.
The weather in early spring and January in the north can be unbearable.
What the pursuers said was indeed right, the warriors couldn't bear it, and Zhang Xuezhou couldn't bear it.
After swimming two miles along the river, he jumped out of the glacier.
The ice water contaminated with the clothes was quickly thrown dry, and Zhang Xuezhou whispered 'The Golden Crow Emperor is my good friend', and then held the Golden Crow Feather to keep warm.
The trick of avoiding water is not to avoid the cold, he avoided the water, but not the cold to the bone.
If it weren't for the fact that the invasive performance of the cold and heat had some effect in the glacier, Zhang Xuezhou's body would have froze a long time ago.
He shivered to warm himself and wrung out the water from his shoes and socks.
As soon as the cold wind and waves blew, the shoes suddenly became hard.
Zhang Xuezhou had to wear the new shoes given by Rong Li.
He put on his shoes and trampled on his feet a few times, only to feel that this escape was a crime.
But with the river in its way, the pursuers will take a long time to take a detour or force a crossing.
Zhang Xuezhou calculated it and estimated the degree of recovery in his body.
He couldn't fly high in the air at the moment, but it was no problem to use his weak demonic power to glide for dozens of meters, which allowed him to cross some obstacles, and then rush back to Rongcheng at a faster speed.
"My cousin should go to Fuping County before buying a horse in the past two days, I will take my cousin's horse and run away, no matter how possible, I can run out of the northern area!"
He pondered for a moment, and then thought about the two horses following behind, and felt that the master father had done a very good job.
Excluding the tracking of Ning Cheng's spell, and the two horsemen in the rear did not follow him, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the matter was probably over, and when he left the northern realm, he was out of the waves again, or when Dong Zhongshu could cast a spell to remove the spell mark, the matter would completely eliminate the hidden danger.
He looked at two small, motionless black dots in the distance, and his body swayed into the low hills near the riverbank.
"What?"
"He actually knows how to get in and out of the 100,000 mountains?"
"Is it really someone from the Murderous Country?"
"Damn, he's jumping around in this river, I'm afraid he's drowned!"
"You don't have to worry, Ning can still sense the mark of the spell moving over there!"
"Hey, I've explained the matter, it's time to let me go, right? He should have sent my yellow horse here, and I will collect it now!" ”
Eventually, there was a confluence on the banks of the river.
When Ning Cheng and the others hurried over with their master's father, they saw that the two people in charge of chasing were still trembling with the military horses to keep warm.
But the information explained by the master father is too important, and no matter how trembling he is, he obviously has to continue to track it down.
"Is your message true?"
"Let me go, let me go, I'll be true!"
The master father screamed, and struggled unwillingly with his bound body.
He looked at the yellow horse on the bank of the river, and he couldn't help but feel excited when he thought of the flying gallop he was riding on.
"Ning Lushi, give him a spell mark and then release him, if he lies openly, then he will be stabbed again!"
Cheng didn't know that the heavy troops were strictly defended, while the Northern Legion had repeated attacks, but it was not the fierce countrymen who stopped in front of the Northern Legion, but countless mountains.
Lacking familiarity with the terrain, the Northern Legion repeatedly lost its way and eventually had to retreat.
If you have a guide who knows the terrain, it will obviously be of immeasurable benefit.
The four of them looked at each other, only to feel that the previous lesson-style pursuit had turned into a world-end pursuit.
Regardless of whether Zhang Xuezhou was in the north or elsewhere, they all had to find each other out.
