"The footprints of this cow are very fresh, similar to my buffalo. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info may be the footprints left by my buffalo. Liu Zongtai said happily.

Zhang Zhaohua also glanced at it, but there was not much joy. He often herds cattle, so he naturally distinguishes fresh cow footprints from old ones. Although the cow's footprints are fresh, they were at least left a day or two ago. The ox is not dead, it is impossible to stay in any place without moving, and the only function of the ox's footprints from two days ago is to show that the line of search is correct.

Zhang Zhaohua also saw a few small plum blossom prints next to the cow's footprints, which were the footprints of the Zuanshan leopard, which had just been left for a short time.

Without making any stops, Zhang Zhaohua continued to walk forward. Liu Zongtai also quickly figured out this fact, and followed with some sighs. Liu Yunjun looked back a few times.

In Zhang Zhaohua's mind, Liu Zongtai's buffalo did not make any stay in this puddle at all, which is also the fact that there is no trace of cattle rolling here in this puddle recently.

Zhang Zhaohua still didn't quite understand one thing: why did the cows run out of the bullpen at night and no one drove them? Shouldn't it be a leisurely search for a crop field to feast on? Most of the cattle in the countryside have had the experience of coming out of the barn at night, but most of them come out to eat. But Liu Zongtai's cow seemed to be very frightened, as if something was driving it. What is it that drives the buffalo to escape and run wildly?

This kind of thing, Zhang Zhaohua has never experienced it in a dream with the old Taoist, so naturally he can't think of it. And he didn't find any clues.

The sound of the diamond leopard has become more and more distant, and it seems that the sound has penetrated deep into the Meishan mountain range. Deep in the Meishan Mountains is a deserted primeval forest. Did Liu Zongtai's buffalo run away into the forest?

"Hurry up, let's not follow this path, let's go after my leopard. Zhang Zhaohua suddenly felt that it was completely unnecessary for her to follow the trail of the cow. The cow certainly doesn't stop somewhere where it goes, but goes farther and farther away. It has taken many detours, and it is impossible to catch up if it follows its path exactly. These roads have already been walked by the Drill Mountain Leopard, as long as you catch up with the Drill Mountain Leopard.

Zhang Zhaohua came out of the woods, got on the road, and chased after him along the road. Liu Zongtai and a few people also felt that Zhang Zhaohua was reasonable, and the Liu family had already searched the nearby woods in a carpet manner. No trace of the buffalo was found.

Even so, the speed of the Diamond Mountain Leopard is still much exceeded, and Zhang Zhaohua and the others can't keep up at all, so they can only rely on Zhang Zhaohua to track the direction.

Zhang Zhaohua was able to find the direction of the leopard every time, and by inviting God, Zhang Zhaohua seemed to have a vague control over everything between heaven and earth. The leopard was originally a mountain dog he domesticated, and it has a mysterious connection with him. He can always find the approximate location of the Diamond Mountain Leopard based on this connection.

Everyone ran for more than an hour and ran more than a dozen kilometers in one go. Zhang Zhaohua seemed to have nothing to do, but Liu Zongtai, Liu Guocai, and Liu Yunjun couldn't do it, they were out of breath one by one, and they couldn't breathe.

"No, no. I just can't run. Liu Yunjun hunched his waist panting, supported his knees with his hands, and said with a mournful voice.

Liu Zongtai was no better, panting heavily. It's just that he was bent on finding his buffalo, and he didn't show his pain.

Liu Guocai took a few breaths, and said to Zhang Zhaohua with difficulty, "Master Zhang, we can't run anymore, why don't we take a rest here first and continue?"

Zhang Zhaohua looked at the sky, and when she came out, it was already after school. It's already evening, and it's going to be dark in just over an hour. Meishan at night is the world of wild beasts. No one in the village dared to go into the mountains during this time.

"Okay, take a break. However, we have limited time to find cattle. If you lose time, you will have to wait for tomorrow. Take care of it yourself. Although Zhang Zhaohua was not out of breath, it did not mean that he was not tired, he was naturally also tired. It's just that he thinks it's his job. A little tired, not on his heart.

"Then you take a break, and Master Zhang and I will continue to search. Master Zhang, can you still hold on?" Liu Zongtai was naturally embarrassed to stop and rest. This is to find cattle for my own family. How can you delay the search because of yourself?

Liu Guocai shook his head and stood up, "Forget it, keep looking." If you can't find it before dark, you're in trouble. Although this is still the outer part of Meishan, who can be sure that there will be no wild beasts on the periphery? ”

The voice of the diamond leopard in the distance suddenly stopped somewhere and did not move, which made Zhang Zhaohua and the others very happy.

"Did your dog find a buffalo?" asked Liu Yunjun in surprise.

Zhang Zhaohua shook her head, "It's not certain yet." You have to go and look at the specific situation to know. ”

Although Zhang Zhaohua did not have a positive answer, she felt that there was a great possibility that she had not yet found it. Because from the cry of the Diamond Mountain Leopard, Zhang Zhaohua could hear that the Diamond Mountain Leopard did not find the target. If a target is spotted, the Leopard's voice will be more rapid, and it will try to drive away the target it is looking for. And now the voice of the leopard is very flat, as if it is barking in a certain direction. It may be because the way forward is being blocked.

"I think so. It's probably the Meijiang River, there is no bridge, maybe the cattle are by the river. Liu Yunjun said.

"The cow may have crossed the river. The leopard chased there and waited for us there. When you were looking for cattle, you shouldn't have crossed the river, right?" Zhang asked.

Liu Zongtai nodded, "This is really not true." When we found there, it felt like you wouldn't cross the river. I didn't look any further. ”

"The buffalo could easily cross the river. We walked across the mountain, crossed the bridge and went around again. Zhang Zhaohua walked faster.

"I really didn't expect the cow to cross the river, if we had crossed the river yesterday to find it, maybe we would have found it. Liu Zongtai said with annoyance.

Half an hour later, the four of them finally arrived on the other side of the river. The Drill Mountain Leopard has also crossed the river and is waiting there.

Zhang Zhaohua searched for it, and the picture of the buffalo appeared in Zhang Zhaohua's mind again. The buffalo did cross the river from here and then walked down the hillside. Only now, the ox seems to be a little tired, and instead of running as fast as it did at the beginning, it is slowly moving forward step by step.

"This way!" Zhang Zhaohua walked briskly towards the hillside. The leopard searched the side of the road, and seemed to have recovered the cow's breath. grabbed ahead of Zhang Yaohua, and ran forward barking all the way.
