After staying in the mountains for such a long time, there were maps and experiences taught by the old hunters, Liu Yuan fought while observing, and he also summed up some experience.

By now, signs of human activity have been found, and it is also lucky, because the trail is very shallow, and it may be covered up in a few days.

And I can't say that these traces must represent my father, but it's a good thing after all.

Besides, it's already deep in the mountains, and it's impossible for the surrounding hunters to go so deep.

Ordinary people who don't have martial arts in their bodies can't survive in this area now, if they weren't a disciple of the Bodhisattva, they would most likely be their own father.

The palm of his hand gently stroked the soil, Liu Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, he could feel that this person's strength was not weak.

Like him, he seemed to be searching for something in the mountains, so he didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, but even so, the shallow traces on the ground were enough to see that this person's light skills were extraordinary.

This kind of shallow trace is not something that leaves footprints on the ground, it leaves footprints, so what kind of light work is it.

If you deliberately hide it, you may not even have this trace.

How strong his father's strength is, in fact, Liu Yuan doesn't know until now, but since his father is a prefecture-level imperial envoy, he can speculate a thing or two.

As for whether there is any hidden strength, it is unknown.

But because of this incident, Liu Yuan couldn't help but have an eye in his heart, but he suddenly thought of someone.

The envoy nicknamed 'Slanted Eyes', he didn't just think that the other party suddenly appeared near this northwest mountain, he just wanted to take a look.

The one who can make the other party here, in addition to the will of the court, is the only one left who can attract him.

If it is the former, when the entire Yuan Imperial Pavilion was first built, it was indeed given the power to supervise hundreds of officials, but if it was just that, it would not be possible for an envoy to go out in person, right?

A few years ago, when the Yuan Imperial Pavilion had not dismissed so many subordinates, it was generally an official of Liu Yuan's status to deal with such a thing, and even the Huang-level imperial envoy did not need it.

The fourth-level envoy of Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang has always dealt with disputes in the rivers and lakes.

But it's hard to say, after all, tonight is different from the past, and it is normal for the functions of the Yuan Imperial Pavilion to be a little different.

Looking at the previous envoy's attack on the garrison boy in front of the shop, maybe the other party came to deal with some things of the Shanglin Road officials?

It's not impossible, but it's more likely that the 'squint eye' is coming at the Bodhisattva who has been hiding in the depths of the mountain.

After all, the previous disciples of the Bodhisattva Barbarian rebelled against the barbarian lord and cooperated with the government of Shangdang County.

Of course, even if cooperation is a betrayal, these disciples will not report themselves to their families and tell the government where the current Bodhisattva is stationed, which is not lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot.

If others are unwilling, the yamen can't force them to ask anything, but with the ability of this envoy, it's hard to say.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, if this was the case, it would not be something he could manage.

Not to mention the unfathomable strength of the barbarian, there is a whole Bodhisattva barbarian here, even if he is a dignified envoy, he has to hate it here.

There was really nothing to worry about, and then Liu Yuan didn't think much about it, and followed these traces all the way forward.

The speed of the march is not fast, because it is still groping as it goes, unlike before, it is all purposeful forward.

These days, he has been fighting in the entire northwest mountains, and for Liu Yuan, he is also improving his strength in disguise.

Because of the pure Yang Tyrant's body technique, the sparring with these strange beasts made his strength can be described as coming in by leaps and bounds.

Among them, there are quite a few strange beasts, which are already twice the strength of the deer and even three times, and the first time they encountered it, it also brought Liu Yuan a lot of pressure.

In particular, there was a long, hideous-looking, hairy monster with six hooves.

It's a monster that I've never heard of at all, and it's not even marked on the map, and the old hunters, including the Bodhisattva barbarians, don't know the name of the monster.

Liu Yuan suffered a lot of injuries, but the loss was to activate the 'source' in his body, making Liu Yuan more and more courageous.

In the end, he successfully killed the monster, and he clearly felt that the Pure Yang Overlord Body Technique was heading towards the sixth layer.

Following the traces on the ground, after walking for almost a stick of incense, Liu Yuan had a headache and found that he seemed to be going around in circles in the mountains and forests.

However, it was a big circle, but Liu Yuan seemed to be extremely patient, and after dark, Liu Yuan rested by the tree, practicing knife skills over and over again.

During the day the next day, Liu Yuancai put away the knife again, these days have been spent like this, and the night is not conducive to searching, so he went to practice martial arts.

In this wild mountain, Liu Yuan's mind and body have been truly silenced, and his comprehension of sword techniques has also reached a higher level.

Especially 'straight to the point', he faintly felt that he was about to touch this real realm.

But whether it is or not can only be known after actually fighting with people.

Thinking of this, Liu Yuan clenched the cold wave in his hand, and with the contact with the cold wave, now his control over the cold wave is also a little stronger.

Until the day when it is completely mastered, it must not be far away.

As he was walking, suddenly Liu Yuan heard a little movement in his ears, it was the sound of battle, judging from the volume of the sound, it should be some distance away from him.

Looking at the traces on the ground, it was not far from that direction, and without hesitation, Liu Yuan rushed over there with a knife.

Although the voice disappeared soon, Liu Yuan had already remembered the direction, and in a hurry, it didn't take him a quarter of an hour for Liu Yuan to come to the vicinity of the source of the sound.

Standing behind a big tree, I looked at it from a distance, and saw the corpse of a monster there.

It was a giant python, its eyes were closed, it had been broken in two, and the bright red snake blood was splashed all over the ground, obviously dead and could not die again.

Such a killing move was naturally not done by Liu Yuan, and he also remembered clearly that he had never encountered any snake-like monsters in this mountain.

"Sure enough, there are others in this mountain. Liu Yuan muttered.

The other party's methods are clean and neat, even in the face of such a monster, there is no mud and water, and the movement is not large, if Liu Yuan has not been vigilant and engrossed these days, I am afraid that he would have missed it.

did not approach rashly, first hid behind the tree and observed for a while, Liu Yuancai walked forward slowly, his steps were quiet, and he did not make a sound when he used the trick of falling leaves.

Until he completely approached the corpse of the snake, there was no accident, and he squatted on the corpse and examined it lightly, and once again sat down in his heart, the strength of that person was very strong.

Just thinking of this, Liu Yuan suddenly stood up, and before he could stand up straight, the whole person rushed forward.

A strong wind blew behind him, making Liu Yuan's back skin ache, and the alarm bell suddenly rang in his heart, so that he could feel the pain of a pure yang tyrant body like him now, which showed that he was not trivial.

"Huh. A man's voice sounded in the back, and after a soft sigh, he said, "The reaction is quite fast." Obviously, the other party was able to dodge his blow, which also surprised him a little.

Hearing the voice, Liu Yuan turned around with a serious face.

And then he listened, ah—

An exclamation that lowered his voice sounded from the mouths of the two of them one after another, the man first, and after the man was gone, Liu Yuan seemed to react, and he also sighed.

"Why are you here?" said the man.

"Why are you here?" Liu Yuan was surprised, surprise was written on his face, and countless questions jumped out of his heart in an instant.

"You shouldn't have come. The man didn't answer, and said more.

"Are you looking for my father too?" asked Liu Yuan as if he understood something.

"Yes. The man nodded, not saying more.

......

Two people, a middle-aged and a young man, leaned under a big tree hugged by several people, and chatted, but almost one asked and one answered, because Liu Yuan was full of questions.

He had seen this person next to him, but he hadn't seen it many times, so he reacted for a while before he recognized it.

It was the former bookkeeper of the inn, the mysterious bookkeeper who had disappeared without a trace because of the gangster's poisoning case, but later learned from Lin Zhutou's mouth that he had disappeared without a trace!

Speaking of which, this bookkeeper is indeed an old bookkeeper, and it has always been the bookkeeper of the inn in Liu Yuan's hometown, and when he was still on an errand in the Yuan Imperial Pavilion, he met a few times.

It's just that for more than ten years, I've seen a total of those few faces.

Just after Liu Yuan arrived in Qingchuan County, the bookkeeper was simply locked in, which was never seen again, so Liu Yuan's impression was still a little vague.

On the contrary, this bookkeeper named Cao Yangcheng recognized Liu Yuan at first sight.

Before Cao Shufang decided to leave, he secretly came to the inn, met Liu Yuan, and found that everything was normal, and Liu Yuan left with peace of mind after he was doing well.

However, with Liu Yuan's shallow and humble strength at the beginning, he was completely imperceptible.

After leaving Qingchuan County, Cao Ledger investigated all the way, and finally chased him to the northwest mountain, obviously this Ledger Clerk knew much more than Liu Yuan at the beginning.

Cao Ledger had always heard and knew about the 'Ebony Tablet', but he only knew that there was such a thing, and he didn't know what he knew.

This matter is secret, only a few parties know about it, and it cannot be disclosed to a third party, Liu Guanzhang naturally adheres to this principle.

Originally, he just left because of the matter of the ebony tablet, and Cao Guanfang was not too worried, but Liu Guanzhang was gone, so he had to be worried.

Fortunately, the inn was handed over to Liu Yuan, and the rest of the matter was dealt with, and it was time for him to leave and leave quietly.

I'm afraid that when Cao Yangcheng left, he didn't expect Liu Yuan to be so capable, and a lot of unexpected things happened later.

After almost understanding the ins and outs, Liu Yuan opened his mouth and asked, "Uncle Cao, how long have you been in this northwest mountain?"

Although the other party didn't say it, Liu Yuan could also guess what kind of relationship Cao had with his father, so he would call him Uncle Cao.

"How long. Cao Shufang's eyes showed a hint of thought, and he shook his head slightly and said, "March and April, I don't know." ”

It's been so long, no wonder Liu Yuandu hasn't found any trace of his father in the mountains now, and Uncle Cao hasn't found it for three or four months, how can he find it in this short period of time.

When my heart sank to the bottom, my face became heavy.

Immediately after, I listened to Cao's account room and continued: "For such a long time, although I haven't found Lord Liu, it's not without gains. ”

"Oh, Uncle Cao, you say. Liu Yuan's eyes lit up.

In the time that followed, Cao Yuan's account room told Liu Yuan in detail the information he had searched for in the mountains, and so on, where he didn't need to go.

Finally, he sighed and said: "You can lock the place in these three places, if you don't have these three places, I'm afraid it will be ......."

In the vast mountains, three places can be locked, which shows how much effort the other party has put in, and what am I afraid of, Cao Jiaofang did not say, Liu Yuan can also think of it.

Looking at the other party's sigh, if these three places are not found, then I am afraid that the clue of the father will be completely cut off.

Now that it's all clear, let's act immediately, and there is not much time to delay.

On the road again, Liu Yuan tried his best, and he was able to keep up with the speed of Mr. Ledger, although he didn't ask, but Liu Yuan probably guessed in his heart that the strength of Cao's ledger room must have surpassed the six-story building.

Not too long passed, and suddenly, Cao Yangcheng paused, turned around and looked at Liu Yuan with a frown and a thoughtful expression.

After a while, just when Liu Yuan wondered if there was something abnormal on his face, Cao Shufang spoke: "If that's right, you are born with a unique pulse." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yuan looked shocked, and his heart suddenly struck, he finally understood what the other party was suspicious of.

Since he was born with a pulse, how did he dodge that blow before, and how did he keep up with the speed of his hurry.

The surprise on his face couldn't be hidden, and Liu Yuan didn't mean to hide it, so Cao's face suddenly changed, and he shot like electricity, and quickly grabbed Liu Yuan's wrist.

The speed was so fast, he didn't wait for Liu Yuan to answer, and he didn't give Liu Yuan a chance and time to react, and a trace of internal breath came in.

It was only a few blinks of an eye, and Liu Yuan could feel a trace of warmth wandering around his body before retreating.

And Cao's face also returned to normal, and even a little more embarrassed, withdrew his hand, and said with a stammer: "Hehe, I am in a hurry, young master is not strange." ”

Yes, he found out that Liu Yuan was indeed born with a dead pulse, and the doubts in his heart suddenly disappeared.

At first, he suspected that the person in front of him was Liu Yuan in disguise, after all, he had heard a lot about the art of disguise, and a few suspicious points caused the misunderstanding just now.

Now there is no doubt, after all, it is okay to disguise, but it is impossible to pretend to be born with a vein, as for the secret or opportunity on the young master, Uncle Cao will not ask more.

"No, no, no, what's so strange about this, it's normal for Uncle Cao to be curious. Liu Yuan waved his hand again and again.

In the end, Liu Yuan's voice became lower and lower, because he saw that Uncle Cao's eyes were moist.

Cao Yangcheng, a man in his forties and fifties, slowly raised his head, took a deep breath, and muttered in a choked voice: "My lord, if he saw you now, how good it would be, how good......"
