Chapter 49: The Fox Goes Missing
In the cave, as the three bottles of Jade Returning Pill were swallowed, the thick ice layer on Dong Rengui's body gradually subsided and was completely absorbed into his body. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Ah......h
"Well, where did the fox go?" he scanned the cave, but found no sign of the fox, "haven't you come back yet?"
"That's not right, since the beginning of self-refining medicinal power, at least three or four hours have passed, the sky is almost dawn, how can the fox not come back yet? Oh no, something must have happened to it!"
Dong Rengui was clever and immediately wanted to stand up, but suddenly hit his head on the top of the cave, he touched his head, ignored the pain and soil, and quickly bent down and crawled out of the cave.
"Although I haven't learned to track, and I can't scan with my divine sense, but now I say that my eyes are like torches, and under my perception, no clue will try to escape my gaze. After crawling out of the cave, he thought to himself, looked up at the morning star in the sky, carefully observed the traces on the ground, and followed the traces left by the fox.
"Huh, what is this?" He followed the trail for a short time, and found the used jade muscle cream and half a roll of lark bandage in a tree hollow.
"Of course, something happened to the fox!" he looked at the jade bottle and bandage that were randomly thrown in the hollow of the tree, and deduced that when the fox was bandaging the wound, it suddenly encountered danger, and it immediately threw down the jade muscle paste and bandage, and fled in embarrassment.
"This is—" he stroked the deep scratches left on the hole in the tree, "Bird's claws?"
Imagine that the fox had just come out of the tree hole, and a large bird swept down from the sky, grabbed the fox with one paw, and the aftermath swept over the hole of the tree, leaving such a deep trace.
"The traces of this bird's claw are also eight or nine points similar to the wound on the fox's back crotch, it should be left by the same bird......" Thinking of the fox's scar and the centennial Ganoderma lucidum, he quickly restored what had happened.
In order to find medicine for him, the fox found the hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, fought with the demon bird that guarded the elixir, and after paying the price of being scratched in the crotch, he got the elixir and returned to the cave.
But the demon bird that lost the elixir was not convinced, one was looking for the trace of the fox, and finally, when the fox left the cave to apply the medicine, it was discovered and attacked by the demon bird, and fled into the forest.
Looking at the claw marks and broken marks left on the trees in front of him, he could easily imagine that the fox used the trees to avoid the attacks of the demon birds, and the demon birds continued to destroy the trees and attack the fox.
Following the traces of their battle, Dong Rengui led one phantom after another into the darkest forest before dawn.
"This is—" Suddenly, he stopped, crouched down in front of a large rock that was torn apart, and dipped his hand in the dried blood from the stone, "Is the fox injured?"
Suddenly, his speed increased even more, and he walked through the dense forest like a ghost.
"Fox, Fourteen Niang, you must not have anything to do!"
Looking at the stains of blood and a handful of fox fur that kept appearing on the road, he was anxious, he knew that the reason why the fox did not return to the cave was nothing more than that he was worried that the demon bird would be seriously injured, but how did she know that even if he was seriously injured, the means he had were not comparable to her, just a demon bird, even if it was not an enemy, but it was still possible to get out easily.
"No, this can't work, it's too slow!" Looking at the fallen tree, a large area of blood and messy fox fur appeared, he stopped, took out two armor horse talismans from the Qiankun bag, twisted the talisman, the talisman spontaneously combusted without fire, and the two talismans were blessed on his legs.
"This is," after most of the rune power was consumed, he finally chased to the end of the chase trace, but unfortunately the trace of the end made him worry even more.
"This is the demon bird?" Seeing that the ground was skinned and torn apart, leaving only a pile of rotten meat, and seeing the demon bird chasing the fox turn into a pile of rotten meat, he not only felt relaxed, but became even more nervous.
"Looking at the analysis of the remaining bird feathers and other objects, this one is a demon stork, watching it be skinned and stripped of its bones, and all the useful materials on its body are removed, the one who killed it must be a monk!" he squatted in front of the remnants of the demon bird, carefully collecting all the clues.
"Looking at the skillful and neat means, the person who does it should be a veteran and often do this kind of thing. Looking at his rough methods of processing materials and his behavior of not letting go of any useful things, and even taking away most of the meat of the demon stork, it can be judged that it is a loose cultivation, and it is a Divine Soul Dao loose cultivation that is not too high!"
He got up and made a reconnaissance result, "It should be a night wandering realm of loose cultivation out of the body to swim here, sneak attack and kill the demon stork, skin and bone, take all the materials, and then go after the fox. ”
As for why the one who didn't make the move was a monk who had cultivated on a day tour or above, it was because the difference between the night tour of the Divine Soul Dao and the day tour was huge, and the monks of the Divine Soul Dao Day Tour Realm could already be regarded as masters, how could they go into the mountains at night to collect materials? How could they let Fourteen Niang escape?
"Look at the freshness of the remnants of this demon stork, it should have just died, probably no more than an hour!" Dong Rengui's eyes were calm, "It will take about 5~10 minutes to collect and process materials for scattered cultivation, and then he went to hunt down the fox again, so calculated, he probably went for more than half an hour, I hope the fox can hold on!"
With a gloomy face, he chased in the direction of the fox's escape......
The sun was rising, and the dappled sunlight shone down through the dense branches, shining on a figure who was crouching on the ground to examine something carefully, and in the early morning, the dew in the mountains and forests was so wet that the figure's clothes and hair were already wet, and they were dripping down his forehead.
"Alas, it's a step too late. Dong Rengui wiped a handful of dew that was about to flow into his eyes, punched the ground with a complicated gaze, and sighed: "If it weren't for that badger demon who had to seek death, why would I waste a period of time?"
"But the great luck in the misfortune is that the loose cultivator did not kill Fourteen Niang immediately, but captured her alive. He gritted his teeth and looked at the net-like marks left on the ground, "It is estimated that the scattered cultivator saw that Fourteen Niang was a rare red fox, very beautiful and cute, so he captured it alive and planned to sell it as a pet, so there is still a chance!"
He stood up, feeling the traces left by the scattered cultivation with all his strength.
Although that loose cultivation is a night tour of the divine soul and can fly extinct, but he carries a living animal like Fourteen Niang, and it can't be stored in the magic weapon like a lifeless dead thing, so his speed must not be very fast, and he also left a lot of traces, especially the fox fur that keeps appearing in the forest.
It is conceivable that after being arrested, Fourteen Niang did not fall into a coma or lose consciousness, but was very sober and left traces for people to track, as evidenced by the fox fur that continued to appear all the way, although I don't know why Fourteen Niang left traces now, but this provided great convenience for Dong Rengui, tracking all the way, chasing out of the mountains and forests, and coming to a Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain.
