Shao Jun slowly climbed down the gap in the cliff, and Li Gang was busy with a strong flashlight next to him to illuminate Shao Jun. With a cliff of about ten zhang, it took Shao Jun a quarter of an hour to reach the bottom of the valley.

Then there was Shen Qi, Li Gang jumped a few times, and also jumped to the bottom.

Shao Jun patted the dirt on his body carelessly, and the three of them turned it up and down before walking forward.

They first found the river and then followed it downstream, observing the terrain around them.

This valley, surrounded on all sides by steep cliffs, is where rivers flow and their water converges into a lake.

Around the lake, there are aquatic weeds and reeds, and the waterfowl that rest at night occasionally make a strange call or two.

In the distance, the green broad-leaved forest, densely packed, in the dark night the shadows of the trees swayed, the night wind blowing, rustling.

Li Gang took a deep breath, letting the fragrance of aquatic plants by the lake penetrate into the internal organs, and then said: "The scenery here is very good. I didn't expect that in this deep mountain range, there would be such a rich place, and the terrain is so special. If anyone could have the opportunity to live here and be isolated, I don't know how free it would be. ”

Shao Jun smiled slightly, but did not make a sound, Shen Qi thought to himself: "What's so good about this? I can't even see a figure! It seems that he is old and confused." ”

In the dark night, the range of what could be seen was limited, and the two men walked around the lake, observing the surrounding terrain, and before they knew it, the whole midnight had passed, and the valley was still not explored.

The sky was getting brighter, and the morning had arrived, but there was a fog all around, and the sight distance did not improve much. "Huh!" Shao Jun said unexpectedly, "Look!"

Li Gang and Shen Qi looked in the direction Shao Jun pointed out, and on the wetland by the lake, the footprints of the two lines of iǎiǎ were impressively imprinted on the beach.

The three of them looked at each other a few times, and Shen Qi said, "This footprint should be human." ”

Li Gang said in surprise: "There are people in this kind of place? Could it be Qiu Peng?"

Shao Jun didn't answer, carefully observed the whereabouts and whereabouts of the footprints, and analyzed: "You see, this footprint is very clear, so it should have been left not long ago, especially, this footprint came out of the lake, and in the first few footprints, there are also very strict water traces. In other words, there should be a person who came out of the lake barefoot, most likely just bathing in the lake, or fishing. ”

As he spoke, Shao Jun bent down, measured it with his hand, and said, "Judging from the big iǎ of the footprints, it should be a child, or a young nv,"

As he spoke, he gently pressed it on the ground with his hand, and pressed out a handprint of the same depth and size as the footprints, and Shen Yín said: "In terms of weight, it is between a young NV and a child, so it should be a less NV that has not yet fully grown up." ”

Shen Qi said in surprise: "Why can't it be a teenager who has not fully grown up?"

Shao Jun said lightly: "Look at these footprints, there is a difference in the center of gravity and way of walking between the young man and the young nv, so the weight of the footprints left is also different, and the pointing of the toes is also different." ”

Li Gang and Shen Qi seemed to have become accustomed to Shao Jun's detailed analytical ability, and did not express their surprise at this.

Li Gang said: "That is to say, it's not Qiu Peng, there are other people living here." ”

Shao Jun nodded and said, "Let's look in the direction of the footprints." ”

Li Gang and Shen Qi couldn't help but be curious, in this kind of barren mountains and mountains, inaccessible, there would be a young NV bathing in the lake. The fog in the sky, the beautiful lake, and this qiē all add a hazy and mysterious feeling to the scene in front of you.

Shen Qi said brightly: "Could it be the heavenly immortal NV?"

Li Gang's reaction was much more rational: "Be more careful, it is said that some local barbarian ethnic groups are very unfriendly to outsiders. ”

Shen Qi didn't answer, feeling that Li Gang's words were simply a kind of destruction of all kinds of beautiful dreams in his heart, and muttered unhappily.

The ground by the lake is covered with grass, and the grass is stained with early morning lù beads, and stepping on it will leave some footprints, which is very easy to distinguish.

The three men followed the footprints, and watched as the barefoot footprints began to turn into those in straw sandals, and followed all the way to a wood.

Shao Jun sniffed and said, "No, it smells of blood." ”

The moment Qiu Peng jumped off the cliff, a sharp pain came from behind him, causing Qiu Peng to almost scream.

That kind of pain was far beyond what an ordinary wound could cause, and it reminded Qiu Peng of the strange methods of the Heaven Swallowing Sect.

Qiu Peng felt a heart-wrenching pain, his whole body muscles tightened, and he had a feeling of severe pain all over his body that he couldn't even breathe.

In this case, Qiu Peng didn't even have the ability to condense his true qi a little, so like an ordinary person, he fell like a stone and fell heavily on the water.

The huge impact splashed high on the surface of the water, and before Qiu Peng could snort, he fainted and fell to the bottom of the pool.

The depth of the pool was shallower than expected, and when Qiu Peng fell to the bottom of the pool, he had not completely dissolved the momentum of the fall, that is, he was hit the rock at the bottom of the pool, and once again hit the wound that was cut by Shao Jun's cloud-swallowing knife, but it made Qiu Peng, who had fainted, suddenly wake up again.

Qiu Peng was at the bottom of the water, rolling his eyes, the sharp pain of the wound and the violent impact made Qiu Peng feel unspeakably uncomfortable, and he couldn't exert any strength.

Fortunately, with the buoyancy of the water itself, Qiu Peng slowly floated towards the surface of the water, and at the same time was rushed forward by the flowing water, driving Qiu Peng to flow downstream with the river.

The only thing Qiu Peng could do was to keep his mouth on the surface of the water as much as possible to breathe, even if it was such a simple action, Qiu Peng felt a little powerless.

The sharp pain of the wound on his back still continued, and every second that passed made Qiu Peng so unforgettable. That kind of pain has reached the limit that people can bear, Qiu Peng feels that as long as he adds a little strength, he will pass out, but Qiu Peng still knows that he must stay awake.

If he fainted now, he would be drowned in the water, and it was with this last thought that Qiu Peng tried to stay awake, his eyes widened, he felt the water around him caress his body, and looked up at the flowing clouds in the sky.

At such a moment, it was like a whole year. Finally, when the river was about to pour into the lake, the river began to widen, and the speed of the water gradually slowed down, Qiu Peng reluctantly paddled his hands and feet, trying not to involve the wound on his back, and slowly swam to the shore and climbed up.

When his iōng bore finally came into contact with the solid ground, Qiu Peng's heart widened and he finally fainted.

When Qiu Peng woke up again, it was already completely dark, and the wound was still in severe pain, a feeling that Qiu Peng had never experienced.

Qiu Peng looked up at the unfamiliar sky and the dark outline of the woods in the night sky, and could barely make out that he was by the river at the moment, and not far away, there was a forest.

"I don't know how long I've been in a coma, is this still the night of that day?, or is it the night a few days later?" Qiu Peng couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, Shao Jun still hadn't found out at this moment.

However, I'm afraid it won't be long before Shao Jun finds him at any time.

Thinking of this, Qiu Peng's heart was so anxious that he couldn't care about the soreness and weakness of his whole body, and the hope of survival made him reluctantly stand up, and slowly walked towards the woods, while turning around, trying his best to erase the traces he had left by the river.

In order to avoid the wound on his back, Qiu Peng had to maintain a straight posture, so that the process of erasing the footprints, which was originally very simple, became an extremely difficult task.

Moreover, even though Qiu Peng tried to maintain his posture and avoid involving the wound on his back, the severe pain still continued to come, making Qiu Peng sweat profusely. Finally came to the woods with such difficulty, Qiu Peng breathed a sigh of relief, at least in the short term, it was not so easy to be discovered.

It is estimated that it will be able to hide here before dawn.
