Chapter 9: The Hunt

The wind, whistling, blowing mercilessly, blew the weeds that spread all over the mountains and fields, and blew off the dead branches whose leaves had fallen.

Xiao Mo's body lurked in the darkness, like an invisible cheetah, bowing his body and moving forward, looking for those dark and remote places of the family.

Fortunately, the place where he lived was on the outskirts of the family, and in addition to the desolation and remoteness, there were basically no people. At this time, it was the thickest time of the night, and all the Xiao family members fell asleep, and they were not found at all in a short time.

So soon, he jumped out of the big wall of the Xiao family along the path he had already thought of, and then after turning his eyes, he did not go to the northern city, which was easier to escape, but went straight to the southern city.

In the southeast of Yangcheng, there is a long river of mighty soup, which flows forward day and night. This long river spans most of Lingzhou, and is the longest and widest river in the entire Lingzhou, so it is named Lingjiang.

After Xiao Mo left the southern city, he didn't stay for a moment, and went straight to the bank of the Lingjiang River, and it didn't take long to see a huge river that stretched for thousands of miles and didn't see its side, coming from the north and flowing in the southeast direction.

Taking a deep breath, I knew that I had reached the most critical and dangerous step, and whether I could get out of danger tonight depended on this step.

Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate, ran to the bank of the Lingjiang River, turned his eyes, and fell on a boulder with a grinding plate on the riverside, and suddenly jumped over in a vertical step, stretched out his hand and hugged the boulder hard, hugged it in his chest, and then closed his breath, and even the person with the stone "plopped" into the river.

With a striking wave rising, Xiao Mo and his people were suddenly washed away by the river.

At this point, all his traces and smells have been washed clean by this river, and he can no longer find any more.

......

Not long after Xiao Mo left, Deacon Xiao rushed into the backyard of the Xiao family, came to the room where Xiao Baiqi, the head of the Xiao family, lived, and informed Xiao Baiqi, the head of the Xiao family, of the news of Xiao Mo's death.

After Xiao Baiqi heard this, he didn't have time to deal with the deacon, so he hurriedly led people to the side courtyard where Xiao Mo was. But seeing that this place was clean, except for a pool of blood stains on the ground, Xiao Mo's figure had already disappeared, and even the valuables in the room were taken away.

Although the deacon of the Xiao family was still wondering, why did Xiao Mo's body suddenly disappear, could it be that someone had stolen it?

And Xiao Baiqi, the patriarch of the Xiao family, is a well-informed person after all, thinking of the Heavenly King Baoxin Pill that Xiao Mo had to ask him to advance in advance, he couldn't help but understand in an instant, and snorted coldly: "What a cunning boy, I underestimate you." ”

"Smack!"

He threw out a palm and hit Deacon Xiao in the face of the five-fold Escape Realm in front of him, and Deacon Xiao was careless, and he was immediately hit.

Even if he was on guard, the patriarch of the Xiao family beat him, but he was afraid that he would not dare to dodge, so he could only bear it, and he would not even dare to use his heart to fight against him.

A great master at the pinnacle of the Qi Realm made a move, even if it was just a random palm, it was as heavy as a mountain. A red palm print appeared on Deacon Xiao's face in an instant, which was clearly visible, and the edge of the palm print even oozed a trace of blood.

I saw that his voice turned cold, and he said coldly: "Immediately order the dark team team to go out, look for it in all directions, if you can't find Xiao Mo, you don't have to come back!"

Deacon Xiao was completely stunned by this slap, and it took him a while to realize that he had fallen for Xiao Mo.

He didn't die at all, he just used the illusion of self-harm to transfer himself away, but secretly used the Heavenly King Baoxin Pill that he had delivered to him before to save his life.

If he hadn't been ruthless and had really used the means of self-harm, with his fivefold strength in the Easy Realm, he would definitely be able to find the abnormality. As a result, not only was he deceived now, but he also forgot that he also had such things as the Heavenly King Baoxin Pill, so he was tricked.

I am afraid that as soon as I leave, he will have been "resurrected" again, and then take the opportunity to escape.

"Damn it!"

He didn't dare to hate the patriarch of the Xiao family who slapped him hard, but he hated Xiao Mo who left to save his life, and let himself be punished for no reason, and boundless anger suddenly arose in his heart, and when he heard the voice of the patriarch of the Xiao family, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, I promise to complete the task." ”

After speaking, as soon as his body turned, he wanted to leave and go to the backyard of the family to gather a secret group to hunt down Xiao Mo.

The Dark Group is a mysterious team established by the Xiao family, specializing in all kinds of shady businesses, and it is also the most powerful force in the hands of the Xiao family patriarch.

Each member of the dark group is above the third level of the Easy Realm, and several team leaders have even reached the fifth level of the Easy Realm, or even the sixth level, which is comparable to the strength of him, the deacon of the Xiao family.

And the captain of the dark group has reached the level of the realm of Qiwu, which is far from being comparable to him.

There is a dark group dispatched, and he believes that where a boy who has entered the quadruple can run, it is not a matter of catching him, and then he will see how to torture him.

Just as this Xiao deacon turned around, Xiao Baiqi, the patriarch of the Xiao family, had a bright look in his eyes, and suddenly said, "Slow down, ......"

Deacon Xiao was puzzled, but he still subconsciously paused and turned around.

Xiao Baiqi waved his hand and said: "In addition, there was a rumor that Xiao Mo used conspiracy and trickery to sneak attack Bai Xinqiu, the second son of the Bai family, in Yulongling. ”

When Deacon Xiao heard this, he suddenly realized that this was the first time to confirm Xiao Mo's crime.

Whether he really escaped or not, he couldn't tell if he had a mouth. And after the Bai family knew that it was Xiao Mo who assassinated their second son, they would definitely send the strongest people in the clan to chase and kill, this time it was really foolproof, and they were afraid that he Xiao Mo had three heads and six arms, and could he escape the pursuit of Xiao Bai's two top masters?

Deacon Xiao was in high spirits, his face was excited, he nodded yes, and then without hesitation, he ran out of the side courtyard where Xiao Mo was, and after a while, he gathered a team of elite members of the dark group wearing black clothes and white bats embroidered on their clothes, and chased them directly outside the city.

It didn't take long for the Bai family's elite team, a member of the blood group, also led by a middle-aged man in a blood-colored robe, to run out of the mansion and chase in the direction that Xiao Mo had fled.

"Kill Xiao Mo, punish the murderer, and avenge the young master's life!"

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

......

Xiao Mo didn't know that after he left, because he fled, two of the four great families of Yangcheng actually joined forces to hunt him down, and dispatched the most elite forces of the two families, the blood group and the dark group.

However, he had already expected that after finding out that he was faking his death and fleeing, the Xiao family would definitely not let him go, so he escaped through the Lingjiang River, as for who was chasing him, what did it matter?

If he can be caught up, with himself as a fourfold kid who has entered the realm of concentration, no matter who comes, he has no power to resist, and can only be slaughtered.

If you can't catch up, even if the patriarchs of the two major families are in person, what can you do?

Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to escape from the sphere of influence of Yangcheng, the farther away the better, as long as you get out of the farthest range that the four great families can control, you will have the possibility of surviving.

With the help of Lingjiang water power, it is the most convenient, labor-saving and effective method.

Of course, the water of the Lingjiang River is vast and turbulent, and ordinary people, if they follow Xiao Mo's example, jumping into the river with a boulder in their arms, they are afraid that they will be crushed by the surging force in an instant.

But Xiao Mo is not an ordinary person after all. Although he is only a half-trick waste, after all, he has already reached the fourth level of concentration, and with a certain physical fitness and monk ability, he can barely resist the power of the water in this spiritual river.

Of course, even if Xiao Mo's physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, after all, he is only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, this time he was shocked and tired, tired and worried, after only persisting for half an hour, he finally couldn't help but roll his eyes, completely fell into a coma in the river, and continued to drift downstream with the washing of the current.

As he lost consciousness, the boulder in his arms loosened and rolled to the bottom of the river.

Xiao Mo's body drifted faster and faster, like a balloon full of sails, and like an unconscious corpse, drifting farther and farther in the river in the dark night.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally, a wisp of fish belly white appeared on the eastern horizon, and a new day had come.

......

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, Xiao Mo suddenly woke up from his coma.

Only then did he realize that he didn't know how much river water he was fed in his stomach, and he didn't feel it when he was unconscious, but when he woke up, he felt a salty smell in his mouth, and he suddenly couldn't help coughing, and coughed up a mouthful of bitter water.

Looking around, Xiao Mo found that he had arrived at a desolate place surrounded by mountains, and there was no one around, so he didn't know where it was.

And the reason why he woke up was because a dead branch came out of the riverbank, blocking the direction of his progress, the dead branch tripped his leg, and Xiao Mo's foot suddenly drew a striking blood mark, and he was awakened by the stinging pain, and then he woke up.

Xiao Mo hurriedly used both hands and feet, climbed the dead branch, and then climbed along the trunk of the tree to the shore. Only then did I find that my clothes were all wet, and my whole body was also a little swollen, which was obviously a natural phenomenon that was difficult to control after being soaked in the river for a long time.

Whether it was in the previous life or in this life, Xiao Mo had never suffered so much, and the embarrassment of this life was concentrated on this day. But at this moment, nothing is as happy as the other side is out of danger.

Because as long as he glanced at the daylight overhead, he knew that it was almost dusk at this time, which meant that Xiao Mo had been drifting in the Lingjiang River for at least a whole day.

According to the flow rate of the Lingjiang River, Xiao Mo at this time must have been far away from the largest sphere of influence that the four great families of Yangcheng could control, but he was afraid that he was already somewhere thousands of miles away from Yangcheng.

No matter how powerful the Xiao family and the Bai family are, they can only affect thousands of miles near Yangcheng, and beyond thousands of miles, they will be beyond the reach of the whip.

Not to mention, Xiao Mo at this moment may have far exceeded the sphere of influence that Yangcheng can radiate, even if the Xiao family's Bai family can't find it here, let alone affect the forces and organizations here, and even once he crosses the border, it may also attract the dissatisfaction of the local snakes here.

The entire Eastern Xuan Domain has eighteen prefectures under its jurisdiction, and Lingzhou has one hundred and eight heavy cities under its jurisdiction, as well as many other counties and counties.

Every important city, every county, has its own sphere of influence.

The Xiao Bai family can be the king and hegemon in Yangcheng, but when they reach other realms, they are just insignificant third-rate small families. What can really affect the entire Lingzhou is the Four University Palaces, the family of nine surnames, and the ancient sects that live in seclusion in the deep mountains in the north of the Eastern Xuan Domain, leading immortals.

And the Xiao Bai family, in front of these forces, are just vulnerable ants, not worth mentioning.

I don't know exactly where this is, but now is not the time to care. After a glance at the twilight of the sky, there was no one in this wilderness, and it was very likely to encounter fierce beasts, which was very dangerous.

Xiao Mo couldn't care about anything else at the moment, the top priority was to find a sheltered place where he could spend the night safely, and the other thing was to find some food to feed his stomach.

Because after drifting in the river for a day and a night, the iron man will starve, not to mention that when he is the longest body, the amount of food is larger than that of ordinary people?

Thinking of this, regardless of exhaustion, Xiao Mo continued to walk deep into the mountains along the riverbank, and after a while, he came to a slightly weird blue-black cliff, and his eyes lit up, because he found that there was a small cliff hole on the cliff, I don't know if it was dug by humans or left by wild beasts.

Without hesitation, he immediately climbed upwards with all his might, and finally got into a vertical position and dodged in.
