Volume 2 Dynasty Chapter 213 Tracking
Back at the inn, it was already noon.
Lu Xuan told the two of them the news he had just found in the county office, and immediately said: "Now that they have left Fengyang City, it is useless for us to stay here, we can only chase the escort team as much as possible, and I don't know if we can catch up." ”
"It's been two days since we came to Fengyang City, and they have been away for three days, and there are more than 100 people in the Yao family, even if they rush overnight, they shouldn't be able to go far." Lu Zhaozhao analyzed.
Lu Xuan nodded: "The things will be stored in the inn first, Ah Lai, you go to find two fast horses, we will ride to chase them, we should be able to catch up." ”
The matter is related to the life and death of the family, Ah Lai did not dare to slack off, buried all his gratitude and worry in the bottom of his heart, and found two good horses as soon as possible.
The horses of the Great Jin Dynasty have saddles, Lu Xuan and Lu Zhaozhao can both ride horses, but Ah Lai is not very old, so he shares the same horse with Lu Xuan.
After about half an hour, the three of them left Fengyang City and chased after the place that the county master said.
On the pipeline leading to Shengjing City, the sound of horses' hooves "da-da-da" continued to sound, Lu Xuan on horseback rose and fell rhythmically, his mind became a mess, and various conjectures continued to pour out from his heart:
"Why did the people of the True Spirit Sect take away the Yao family, what purpose did they have, would they ......?"
"Hey, hey, don't think about so much uselessness, what you should be worried about now is whether it's better to catch up or not, if you can't catch up, this matter will not be delayed. Catch up, hehe, you're going to be against the people of the True Spirit Sect, what is this called? This is called self-defeating. ”
Lu Xuan immediately turned his head to look at him, at this time he was lying bored in mid-air yawning.
"Hehe, according to your position, wouldn't it be better for me to catch up with them, isn't this giving you a chance to replace me? Why did you give up the idea of replacing me? ”
"Jokes." He sat up and stretched: "Lao Tzu is not familiar with the people of the True Spirit Sect, the ghost knows that you were caught by them, what will they do with you, when the time comes, what kind of formation will be made so that you will not die or live, won't Lao Tzu suffer with it." ”
"Are you not familiar with the True Spirit Cult? Isn't the Heavenly Immortal Man brought in by you, and isn't the news about me told by the Heavenly Immortal Sect to the True Spirit Sect? ”
He looked at Lu Xuan with a sneer: "What did you just say in the county office, didn't you say that you were deducing the heavenly machine?" In addition to our Dan cultivation in this world, there are other monks, all the laws are natural, such as those who practice the way of Qihuang and those who are good at Tianyan magic..... In case the national teacher of the True Spirit Sect is good at the art of Tianyan, so as to deduce your existence, then what is the matter with the Heavenly Immortals? Don't blame the heavenly immortals for everything. ”
Lu Xuan ignored him anymore, buried his head and continued to hurry, and began to prepare for what he might encounter next.
This horseback ride has been several days, although Lu Xuan's body is tough and can support it, but Lu Zhaozhao, Ah Lai and the horses under his crotch are all mortal and still need to rest.
One evening, when the three of them were resting on the side of the road, Lu Zhaozhao took out the dough cake he was carrying from his baggage and handed it to Lu Xuan, who was squatting on the side of the road.
Taking the dough, Lu Xuan took a bite hard, pointed to the marks on the ground, and said vaguely: "You see, it should have rained here a few days ago, the road is very muddy, and the axle prints and footprints are very deep, we should catch up soon." ”
The hurried days made Ah Lai's face a little pale, and he pursed his chapped lips: "Brother Lu, thank you." ”
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me, this matter is far from being as simple as imagined, and I may not be able to help you." Lu Xuan paused and continued: "Ah Lai, if your family really did something angry, what would you do. ”
"That's my family, too!" Ah Lai replied without hesitation: "Brother Lu, I understand what you mean, if this is really the case, I will take them to hide, if they don't change their ways, I will die to show them!" ”
What is the good and bad in the troubled times, if the scourge is all dead, then I am afraid that there will not be many people left in this world.
Lu Xuan sighed slightly, and after eating and drinking, he rode the horse again.
The sound of horses' hooves resounded, weaving through the empty road.
Just when Lu Xuan was guessing how long this kind of life would last, and whether they could catch up with the Yao family, Lu Zhaozhao suddenly discovered the situation.
Through the hazy moonlight, Lu Xuan and the three of them saw a bonfire that had just been extinguished, the charcoal inside emitted a faint red light, the roadside was dumped rice bran, and the footprints of all sizes were messy.
"I'm about to catch up, they should be in front." Ah Lai suppressed the eagerness in his voice.
In order to avoid startling the snake, Lu Xuan immediately turned over and dismounted, and chased in the direction of the footprints in the night.
It was probably more than an hour, when the sky was gradually replaced by dark blue, and the sky was about to dawn, Lu Xuan finally found a piece of prisoners in a forest who were snuggling up to each other and dozing off.
Regardless of gender, young and old, all of them wore shackles around their necks, and even had a talisman attached to their foreheads, exactly as if they were escorting a felon.
Hiding in the woods and watching for a while, Ah Lai pressed his chest with his left hand, calmed down his rapid breathing, and said in a low voice: "Brother Lu, it's them, my father, my mother, and my uncle, they are all here!" ”
"Don't worry, stay here for now."
Lu Xuan looked around, and in this forest, he only saw the Yao family, and did not see the personnel in charge of escorting.
If the other party can negotiate, it is naturally excellent, if not, it will inevitably be a vicious battle, anyway, since they have come, this group of people must be saved.
Lu Xuan slowly walked around the forest a few times, but he didn't see half a figure.
"It shouldn't be unattended! The Yao family is not stupid, otherwise, it would have been finished long ago. ”
Just after Lu Xuan's incomprehensible death, he suddenly heard an extremely strange creaking sound behind him, like the twisting of joints, with a hint of creepy.
Lu Xuan turned around and found that a hazy white mist was floating in the forest at this moment, and the creaking sound sounded in the fog.
The creaking sound was near, and the sleeping Yao family began to wake up, and when they heard the strange sound, their eyes showed a look of horror, and some of the children even cried as if something extremely terrifying was approaching.
Lu Xuan looked at the white mist, and there was a pain in his yang eyes, but his yin eyes couldn't see through the mist, and he could even smell a fishy smell on the tip of his nose, indicating that this fog was not as simple as it seemed.
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided!
Lu Xuan didn't want to sit still, he clenched the hilt of the black sword with one hand, held his breath, and cautiously rushed towards the white mist.
