Chapter 100: Hunt and Escape
Hall Master Xiao and several other spirit masters were a little puzzled when they heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Senior Brother in charge, what do you mean by Master Feng's words?"
Shi Jian said: "Uncle Feng is saying that some lessons and the current situation of unity within the sect are not easy to come by, and we need to understand these lessons and consolidate the current situation of unity and cooperation. ”
Hall Master Xiao thought about it carefully, nodded solemnly, and Shi Jian said again: "Don't spread the word about this competition, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Master Confucius's nephew." The spirit masters hurriedly said yes, and went out with the master.
Elder Feng and Elder Lei returned to Elder Feng's secret realm together, and Elder Lei immediately asked, "Senior Brother, are you really going to do this?"
Elder Feng nodded, and said to Elder Lei: "Senior brother, you know that I don't have much life, and I have no choice but to do this, if Jian'er can successfully form a true pill, it will be fine, otherwise how can I be worthy of all the seniors and Senior Brother Peng?"
Shi Jian was thinking about what Feng Shibo said, "The small country of the Qi Yan Country is able to occupy half of my Great Yan Country". The current situation is indeed the case, the strength of the sect of the Qi Xuan Kingdom is obviously not necessarily stronger than that of the Wu Xuan Sect, but this little Yi Xuan Kingdom actually has such strength, not only did it harm the Great Yan Country for thousands of years before, but now it almost caused the Great Yan Kingdom to perish. Shi Jian was puzzled, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
As soon as Sima He returned to Lingji Mountain, he immediately brought Zhao Yaozhong and his wife and Ji Feng to the main hall and explained to them the situation of the competition with the Qiqian people and the fact that Kong Rui was released for a year.
The four of them were all shocked when they heard this, and Sima He said to Gu Yunshan and Fan Mingfang: "This matter must be kept absolutely secret from anyone, especially not let Su Yun know, and you two must also work harder and take care of your junior sister." ”
Gu Yunshan thought for a while and said, "Master, don't worry, the disciples know how to do it, and they will take care of the other disciples." We just told Senior Sister Su that Kong Rui had gone out on a long-term mission and would be back in a year. Sima He nodded and waved them all back.
Sure enough, not long after a while, the cultivation world of the Great Yan Kingdom had already spread the news of Wu Xuanzong's defeat of Evil Confucianism, but Wu Xuanzong's first combat power came from a disciple under the Lingji Mountain Gate, the weakest branch of Wu Xuanzong, and this disciple was released by Wu Xuanzong for a year because he deliberately killed people; For a while, many people were ready to move, after all, the bounty was not small.
But at the same time, there were also cruel words released by Tiangongmen, saying that if anyone dared to accidentally injure the disciples of Tiangongmen within a year, Tiangongmen would retaliate at ten times the price, and the related people would not let go.
As soon as many people who had a little idea heard the news, their hearts were half cold, the time stipulated by the Gongmen on this day was the same as the time when Kong Rui was exiled, and most of them also had some intention of sheltering him; and the news from the evil Confucianism only said that the disciples of Wuxuanzong were good at using puppets, knew illusions, were proficient in swordsmanship, and were infinitely powerful, and they didn't even know their names, such people grabbed a lot of people under the Tiangongmen, in case they made a mistake and provoked the Tiangongmen, then they didn't plan to be peaceful in this life. There are only some bold and careful people who still have dreams, even if they find out the whereabouts of this person.
Since Kong Rui left Yunlow Peak, he fled all the way north with the blessing of the Wind Charm Talisman. Of course, he knew that Tiangongmen was in the south, and if he went directly to the south, it would be easy for people to think of going to the territory of Tiangongmen to seek refuge, and if he went north, he would only give the opponent an illusion that he might have to go south. But Kong Rui's idea is to keep going north, which is a very important method in the escape technique that Hall Master Xiao introduced to him: it is to make the opponent not think which direction you will flee.
When the first wind charm that Kong Rui slapped on his body burst open, he had already reached the edge of the mountain, and there was a town not far in front of him. Kong Rui thought that if he wanted to drive the clouds again, it would be easier to attract attention, plus his mana was insufficient, and it would take too much mana to drive the clouds, and now that it was getting dark, it was better to find some clothes to change into after dark, and then fall to the ground first, and slowly walk towards the town.
From a distance, it can be seen that the town used to be very prosperous, but now it is on the front line of the war, and everyone has closed their doors early, and it looks very withered. Kong Rui took a big turn on the street, found an inn, walked in in a big way, asked for the second room of Tianzi, and asked the guy for the way to the county seat, so he brought a pot of hot water into the room.
As soon as they entered the inn, one of them asked the man urgently, "Man, is there a young man in a black robe who has come to stay at the hotel?"
The guy hesitated, grimacing.
The questioner was about to get angry, but the other grabbed him, took a piece of silver out of his bag, and handed it to the fellow.
When the guy saw the money, he immediately accepted the broken silver and said: "Yes, yes, he lives in Tianzi No. 2 room, or I will lead you up?"
"No, we'll just go up ourselves. What else did he say?" said the man who paid for it.
He didn't say anything, just asked how to go down to the county seat. ”
The man asked, "Then how do I get to the county seat?"
These two men were the two evil Confucian Taoist spiritual masters sent by the Yakini people to follow Kong Rui, Yoshino and Nagumo, who received a summons from Muto and also went straight to the north.
Although Kong Rui left first, his mana was limited, but fortunately he was blessed with the wind charm, but the followers behind him were all spirit masters, and they also rushed to this town quickly, and found the guy to ask Kong Rui about the room.
Yoshino and Nagumo's plan was to find Kong Rui first, then block it somewhere, and then summon the spirit disciples behind him to come and kill him.
It turned out that this cultivator was the best at exploiting loopholes in some rules, and the rules said that high-level cultivators were not allowed to make a move on low-level cultivators, but the Yakini people thought that as long as the high-level cultivators did not take action in person, it would be fine, but it did not prevent them from sending high-level cultivators to follow and threaten the other party, so it was not considered a violation of the rules.
As soon as they heard the guy say that Kong Rui was living in the second room of Tianzi, the two of them immediately divided into two ways, Yoshino walked out of the inn, flew into the air, and monitored it, and Nanyun went straight to the second room of Tianzi. Nanyun walked to the door of the room in the second room of Tianzi, and released his divine sense to explore the room. Under the divine sense, Nagumo immediately felt that something was wrong, and the room was actually empty. Nanyun was taken aback, and hurriedly broke down the door, only to see that the window of the room had been opened, but there was no Kong Rui in the room, so he hurriedly beckoned Yoshino, who was in mid-air, to come down and check together.
Yoshino was anxious, and when he saw this, he immediately scolded: "This little bastard thing is quite fast. Brother, did he not live in, or did the shopkeeper deceive us?"
Nanyun's mind was much more detailed, and after careful inspection, he saw that there was still tea left on the table, and he reached out and touched it, and felt that the teacup was still warm, and there were also wrinkles on the sheets, which were obviously traces of someone sleeping, so he pointed to the teacup and bed sheets on the table and said: "Senior brother, don't be impatient, you see that this teacup is still warm, and some people have been lying down on the bed, thinking that this kid should have been here, but I don't know how to find us, so I fled in a hurry." ”
"Then what are you waiting for, let's hurry out and chase it. Yoshino said anxiously.
"Where are you chasing?" Nanyun glanced at him and asked rhetorically.
"The younger brother is too impatient, so please show the senior brother. Yoshino paused for a moment, and then he reacted.
"Since this boy had time for tea, and had been lying down in bed, he must have wanted to stay here, but somehow he found them, so he escaped through the window. If the escape is so hasty, then there must not be any specific plan in place, and it is much easier to follow. Nagumo thought for a moment.
"Then in which direction are we going to chase?" Senior brother hurriedly arranged. Yoshino was in a hurry.
"If you don't have any specific plans, what should be the place you want to go to?" Nagumo asked Yoshino rhetorically.
That must have been the earliest plan or a return to a place he was relatively familiar with. By the way, it's either in the direction of the county seat, or it's back to the area of Yunlow Peak. Yoshino thought for a moment.
"Well, that's what I thought, too. Let's split up. Nagumo smiled and nodded.
