Chapter 187 Tracking
Chapter 187 Tracking
"Didn't you send Master Puhui to Chengfeng Town? Why did you come back so soon?" Li Zhi asked Wang Yang curiously.
Although Li Zhi asked this, he actually knew why Wang Yang came back so soon. Because when they separated, Li Zhi had already secretly driven the mosquito demon to follow them.
Wang Yang was not surprised that Li Zhi would ask this. After all, they had agreed that he would first settle Master Pu Hui before returning. So he answered directly and truthfully: "Halfway through the journey, Master Pu Hui asked me to come back to help find someone. He said Chengfeng Town was not far away and he would take the things there first, and we could go find him later."
Li Zhi nodded, and Wang Yang continued, "Fortunately, you made marks along the way, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to find it."
Wang Yang's tone was somewhat emotional, he recalled the scene when he arrived at the cave. There were rats and corpses everywhere, and only Erniu and the other two were left in the cave to fight against the rats.
Li Zhi didn't say anything when he heard this, and his thoughts drifted back to the past.
At that time, he had discovered Erniu and his men's tracks through the mosquito demon's detection, and when he learned that Erniu and his men were captured in the cave, Li Zhi originally wanted to sneak over quietly, but he didn't expect that the man was very vigilant and had already placed a secret sentry far away from the cave.
So Li Zhi's whereabouts were immediately discovered by him, and the beggar was also very cautious and chose to run away without hesitation.
This put Li Zhi in a dilemma, but when he realized that Wang Yang did not go to Chengfeng Town with Pu Hui, he immediately made up his mind to chase after the beggar.
At the same time, he also asked the hundred-eyed insects to make some marks along the way so that when Wang Yang came, he could follow the marks to find Erniu and his friends. The hundred-eyed insects were also hiding in the underground of the cave. It was because of the secret deterrence of the hundred-eyed insects that the mice were restrained and Erniu and his friends were able to hold on until Wang Yang arrived.
Li Zhi looked at Erniu and the other two, and saw that they all had wounds from being bitten and scratched by rats, and their clothes were tattered and in a state of disgrace. Li Zhi frowned, and a trace of guilt surged in his heart. After all, if he had chosen to rescue them directly at that time, they probably wouldn't be like this.
Li Zhi took out three pills from his arms and handed them to them, saying, "This pill has the effect of healing. Taking it should help your injuries."
Xu Zhen's eyes lit up, and his tired face instantly became energetic. He stretched out his hand and quickly took the pill handed over by Li Zhi. Although he looked miserable at this moment, his face was always filled with an irrepressible excitement.
Xu Zhen threw the pill into his mouth without hesitation and began to chew it. Li Zhi looked at his reaction and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He asked curiously, "Why do you look so happy?"
Xu Zhen chewed the pills and hadn't spoken yet when he heard Pei Xiucai say, "Because there is one more thing he can brag about. You don't know, he told me on the way that when he returns home in glory, he can brag to his relatives and friends that he once fought a rat demon..."
When Li Zhi heard Pei Xiucai say this, he looked at Xu Zhen, but found that Xu Zhen did not refute this time, which was really surprising. You know, on weekdays, the two of them always like to quarrel.
But at this moment, Xu Zhen not only did not refute what Pei Xiucai said, but also nodded.
Li Zhi shook his head helplessly and ignored them. He looked around and saw that they had hastily cleaned up the place and buried the dead beggar. After all, if such a thing was not properly handled, it would easily cause panic among others. If the Night Patrol was attracted by mistake, Li Zhi would be in trouble.
Li Zhi did not forget that he was still wanted by Xiaoyao Mountain with a bounty on his head. He did not dare to bet whether Yeyousi was colluding with Xiaoyao Mountain.
After finding nothing unusual, Li Zhi said, "Let's go to Chengfeng Town first!"
Now that the matter here is over, Li Zhi doesn't want to stay any longer. He knows very well that it is not advisable to stay here for long, and he must leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
Because he had just used the magic of Xiaoyao Mountain, he had an indescribable feeling since the previous battle with Xiang Zuo, always feeling as if he was being watched by something. The feeling of being watched followed him like a shadow, making him feel vaguely uneasy.
This is also the reason why he dare not use the magic of Xiaoyao Mountain now. If it were not for finding Erniu and the others this time, Li Zhi would not easily use the ghost-controlling technique.
He always had a feeling that once he used the magic of Xiaoyao Mountain, his whereabouts would be exposed.
The others heard what Li Zhi said, and they did not object. Although Erniu and the others were not seriously injured, they were still injured after all. And after the tossing and turning of this incident, they now showed some fatigue on their faces, and they really needed to have a good rest.
So, several people rushed towards Chengfeng Town.
Li Zhi was worried that his use of the ghost-controlling technique would attract some people who were secretly tracking him, so he walked very fast at this moment, hoping to leave this place as soon as possible. The others thought that Li Zhi was just in a hurry to go back, and they didn't think much about it, and they all speeded up to catch up with him.
Chengfeng Town was not too far from here, and with their non-stop travel, they finally arrived at Chengfeng Town.
…
Just a few days after Li Zhi and his friends left, this place became quiet and deserted, with no one seen for most of half a year.
Today, another person came suddenly.
It was a man with messy hair that looked like a chicken coop, giving him an unkempt look. His eyes were bleary, as if he had not yet fully woken up from his sleep. He yawned slowly and slowly came to the forest where Li Zhi and his team had released the tiger.
This person was exactly the one Li Zhi was familiar with - Xiaoyaoshan Zeiss!
Zeiss's right hand was weak, and on his index finger was a large black ant.
There was an ant lying on his index finger. This ant was much bigger than an ordinary ant. This ant was much bigger than an ordinary ant, and its dark body shone with a unique luster in the sun.
I saw the two antennae on the ant's forehead swaying gently in the air, as if carefully capturing every subtle breath around it.
Then, its small body moved slightly, and its six slender feet gently stepped on Zeiss's fingers a few times. Then it raised its tentacles high again, paused for a moment, and then slowly and vigorously nodded at Zeiss.
Cai Si's sleepy eyes suddenly lit up, and he was excited. He knew that the ants sensed that someone had cast Xiaoyao Mountain's magic here not long ago. And Cai Si was very sure that the person who cast Xiaoyao Mountain's magic here must be Li Zhi!
Because this ant was specially cultivated by him, this ant can not only sense the magic of Xiaoyao Mountain, but also sense through the medium provided by Zeiss that Li Zhi has been here.
In order to cultivate this ant, Cai Si had put a lot of thought into it. He even used his spiritual finger to help it open its spiritual intelligence. Now this ant has already stepped half a step into the ranks of monsters.
Cai Si went to such great lengths just to capture Li Zhi as soon as possible so that he could take him back to exchange for magic.
Zeiss's eyes were filled with greed and madness. He looked at the forest and murmured softly, "My good junior brother...are you in there? I've had such a hard time looking for you!"
Having said that, Chase took a step into the forest.
