Chapter 14: The Sword of the Heavenly Realm (6)

The northbound road is not very smooth, because the goal is not very clear, so I dare not catch up at a fast speed, for fear of missing clues along the way.

Changya kept praying in her heart that the good woman would not do anything, and that she would return to me with good dignity and be unscathed.

After walking for a long time, at noon, there were more dead trees on the black desert, probably not too far from the time when this area was desertified, but the thick black sand was still boundless. If the murderer didn't come in this direction, it would be troublesome.

The two sat down to eat, Changya didn't have any taste, and Uncle Yang kept persuading and comforting. I didn't expect this rough man to speak gently to people.

The most important thing for an archer is not his skills, but his character, to have that stagnant state of mind, such a person is the most important characteristic that a sharpshooter should have. Uncle Yang is a person with a temperament, so he is not as successful as Uncle Yang.

Suddenly, Uncle Yang said, "Hey! I haven't seen this kind of paw print. ”

His experience as an archer is to know the paw prints and footprints of various birds and beasts, and when tracking birds and beasts, he uses them to determine the size and ferocity of birds and beasts.

Changya looked a little surprised when he heard his tone, and he also came over to take a look, which brought him a surprise. It turns out that this is the claw marks of the water green phoenix, which is deeper and wider.

"This is a good female pet phoenix caught. Changya became excited.

Uncle Yan took two steps, talking to himself as he walked. Changya didn't know what he was saying.

Uncle Luo stopped and said: "There are two possibilities, the first one may be more unfortunate, that is, the good girl is missing, the phoenix is flying everywhere, and she can't find it, so she falls here to rest." ”

Changya's heart sank, and he urgently asked what the second one might be.

Uncle Yang said: "The second possibility is that after the good girl was arrested, the phoenix followed all the way, and the murderer rested here, and the phoenix also stood far away on this tree, because the opponent was too strong to approach." ”

Uncle Yang analyzes with the experience of an archer, an archer is also a hunter, and his analysis cannot be said to be unreasonable.

Changya's heart jumped, and he didn't think of anything, but his thoughts flashed in his heart and disappeared.

"Brother Zhen, which one do you say is more likely?" Changya's tone was obviously worried.

Uncle Yang asked rhetorically, "What kind of bird is the water green phoenix?"

Changya told him the origin of the phoenix, and waited for his analysis, now Changya has basically lost the ability to think, the more he wants to find a good woman quickly, the farther away from his keen judgment.

"The phoenix is a divine beast-level bird, but it is not strong enough at the moment, it is just a bird that has eaten the primary divine beast pill, and its appearance has not changed, but there is just one more 'phoenix blood condensation' killing skill. If it had been fated to eat the Growth Pill, it would have been different. Fortunately, it has a heart and soul with its owner, and its soul has become one. His words meant that he did not give SΓΉ Changya any answer.

Originally, the situation was more complicated, what Changya wanted in his heart was the lucky answer, but who could say for sure? Changya calmed down and thought about it, and his answer was just a word of comfort.

Putting aside this delusion, Changya's mind began to calm down, and suddenly the fleeting thought suddenly became clear - in order to confirm that the water green phoenix was following the murderer here, just look for footprints around. Because one of the reasoning of the Yang Shuban is correct, that is, the opponent is too strong to approach, and can only stand on this dead branch from a distance, so he left this paw print. If this is the case, there should be traces of the murderer nearby, and the murderer can't even rest on the ground, right?

With this inference, Changya said to Uncle Yan. Uncle Luo agreed, and the two looked for it.

But very disappointing, there really isn't any trace of it nearby. There are no footprints of a good woman on the black sand, and there are no footprints of a murderer.

Changya's heart sank to the bottom. If you follow the inference of Uncle Luo, that is the first possibility, the good girl has disappeared, the phoenix has not caught up with the master, lost the news of the master, and flew around in this desert, so that his current situation is the same as the phoenix, and he has lost the news of the good girl.

Looking at the two rows of horseshoe prints on the desert, he fell into utter loneliness.

The wind blew and sand flew in the desert, and the scenery in front of him became blurred, and Changya's heart at this time was the same as this scene, he couldn't see the front clearly, and lost hope and confidence. The wind blows stronger and stronger, and there is such a wind every few hours. After the wind stopped, the two rows of horseshoe prints had become shallow, and if there were one or two more such winds, the horseshoe prints would no longer be found.

Uncle Bang said, "There is." ”

Changya's distracted expression was awakened, his mind was in a mess at this time, and there was only one thing he could do, which was to wait for Uncle Yan to say it.

"Brother Chang, you see, the wind in the desert raised the sand and dust, covering half of the horseshoe prints, it is estimated that there will be another gust of such wind, and the hoof prints will no longer be found, half a night and half a day have passed since last night, and there should have been many such winds and sands on the desert for such a long time, even if the murderer left any hoof prints and footprints on the desert, they would have been covered by the sand, only the paw prints on the dead tree would not be covered. ”

Changya was overjoyed and said, "So the second one is still possible?"

Uncle Luo nodded, still worried, and said: "It should be so, whether the direction is correct or not is not 100%, according to the current point of view, there is no other way than to pursue it like this." ”

Changya was so anxious that he galloped north when he got on Jin Cong. Uncle Chang shouted: "Brother Chang, don't be too fast, don't drop any clues." ”

The two of them still walked all the way to the north, but in the evening, there were no more claw marks of the water green phoenix, let alone claw marks, even the sound of birds could not be heard, and the black desert was silent.

At night, the two no longer chase, for fear of missing any clues, some clues such as the claw marks of the phoenix can only be seen during the day, and only when they see a little clue will they not go in the wrong direction.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, Changya went to chase, but he didn't expect to see anything this day, and he couldn't help but start to suspect that he was chasing in the wrong direction.

Seeing the black desert and black sand, I couldn't see anything except some dead trees. Changya drew his sword and cut down some dead trees, vented his sullenness, set up a tent and fell asleep.

In this way, on the third day, there was a high mountain in front of them, straight into the clouds, and after walking for half a day, there were small oases, and further on, there was a clear stream, and the two took a bath and rejoiced their bodies. I want to go to the bottom of the mountain by evening.

However, it seems that it is impossible to reach it when it is close, and it is estimated that it will be able to enter the mountain at noon tomorrow.

After a night of silence, I finally had to enter the mountain at noon the next day, but in the face of such a high mountain, it was more difficult to find the direction than in the desert, and I didn't know what to do at the foot of the mountain. He galloped along the foot of the mountain, hoping to find a way into the mountain.

After noon, there was a mountain path leading to the mountain, and the mountain path was hidden by the trees, and there must have been many wild beasts in it. Suddenly, a piece of shiny and turquoise thing came into view, and it was the piece of jade that Changya gave to the good girl.

Now there is a direction, and it is undoubtedly the mountain road that leads to guΓ². The good girl is still safe for now, otherwise she wouldn't have thrown down the jade to lead the way.

After walking for a short time, I saw the paw prints of the phoenix again, and there were two scratches on a branch on the side of the road.

This increases the confidence to find a good woman, as long as there is a mark, I am not afraid of not finding it. I'm afraid that I will suddenly lose my mark.

I have been tracking in this mountain for six or seven days, but I have only seen the paw prints of the phoenix, and I have not seen the mark of a good woman.

The road in the mountains is difficult, and besides, you have to make sure that you are not chasing the wrong direction, so you can't go fast if you want to. The forests are getting denser and darker, and the mountains are getting higher and higher.

On this day, a big wolf suddenly broke out of the forest, taller than the average wolf, and the difference from the ordinary wolf was that the eyes were red, and he was grinning at the two of them, blocking their way. Another big eagle flew and landed beside the wolf, and this eagle was even more terrifying, especially with two claws, which landed on a stone and caught a stone chip and flew away.

This scared the two of them a lot, and if someone was caught by it, wouldn't it be a piece of flesh and bones?

The eagle flapped its wings and jumped up, stretched out its claws, and the arrow lost its head and was nailed to the tree.

Uncle Bang was another arrow, the eagle stretched out its claws like lightning to catch the arrow, the movement was agile, and he heard a "snap", and an arrow was broken into two. At this moment, the wolf jumped up and pounced, and barked in mid-air, revealing its white teeth.

The eagle also swooped down, and one bird and one beast cooperated with each other to attack up and down.
