34 Packet Drops
Hearing Venerable Jishui's words, the leading sergeant couldn't help but ask, "The last general is stupid, please ask His Holiness for guidance." Venerable Jishui sneered: "The internal strength of the Gongsun Sect Master is alone in the universe, although it will take eight hours for the six of us to seal the acupoints around the body in the Mota, but now that the time has passed, with the skill of the sect master, at least the hands and feet can move freely, how can they still rely on the support of the demon girl surnamed Ning, and move forward slowly like this?"
The leading sergeant said in his heart, "Maybe you overestimate your own sect leader. But he didn't dare to refute it, and nodded vigorously. Venerable Jishui continued, "Even if the Sect Master's hands and feet are still unable to move, why did they abandon their mounts and walk forward on foot after entering the wilderness, since they were able to use the goats as mounts to escape all the way here?"
As soon as the words fell, the nearby sergeants all nodded one after another, according to this, this matter is indeed a bit strange. Venerable Jisui asked again, "Besides, where is the red-clothed girl and the crazy boy who originally traveled with the two of them now?" The leading sergeant couldn't answer, so he had to volunteer: "No matter what tricks are involved, now that the leader of your sect is less than twenty miles away from us, it will only take half an hour at most, and the last general will be able to lead the army to capture them, and it will not be too late until they are captured." ”
Unexpectedly, Venerable Jishui gave him a blank look and asked sharply: "The slope in front of you is the mountain wall south of the northern vein of the Tianshan Mountains, which is several miles away, although it is not very steep, the slope is not small. It's easy for you to go down on horseback, but what if you want to come up from the bottom of the slope?"
The leading sergeant didn't understand what Venerable Jisui meant for a while, so he had to follow his question and replied, "This ...... According to this slope, it is the season of snow cover, and if you want to come up from below, the horse will definitely not be able to ride, and you can only lead the horse step by step......" Speaking of this, he couldn't help but ask: "As long as you can capture your sect leader, you will be done." Even if you have to go back the same way along this slope, you won't be in a hurry anyway, so what's the point of walking slower?"
But when he heard Venerable Jishui shout sharply and asked, "What if this man and woman are not the people we are looking for?" As soon as these words came out, all the sergeants were stunned, not understanding what Venerable Jishui meant. After all, the leading sergeant was a general in Bali City, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly opened his mind and asked, "Is it ...... Could it be that His Holiness meant that the young man in the wilderness was not the leader of your sect, but ...... But the other boy who was with them? But look at the clothes on them...... Could it be ...... Could it be that His Holiness thinks they have dropped their bags in private?"
Venerable Jishui sneered: "So like this kind of carving insect skill, don't want to hide it from me Ji Xuanyuan!" The four of them were originally two women from the south and the same age, but now it seems that they have already broken into pieces, and they have been divided into two waves, one man and one woman, and fled to each other. If they exchanged clothes before they broke up, asked the crazy boy to change his appearance as the Gongsun Sect Master, and then the girl in red pretended to be the demon girl surnamed Ning, looking at it from a distance like this, naturally he couldn't see the slightest flaw. ”
The leading sergeant nodded again and again, but he still had some doubts in his heart, and asked, "Although the truth is not bad, but after all, I have not witnessed it with my own eyes, so His Holiness came to this conclusion, which seems to be ...... Doesn't that seem a bit too hasty?" Venerable Jishui said sharply, "If you catch up and witness it with your own eyes, you will fall for their trick! You must know that the reason why this pair of men and women in the wilderness abandoned their mounts and walked forward so slowly was precisely to lure us to chase after us, and use themselves as bait to cover the real Gongsun Sect Master." Hmph, if you want to catch up with this man and woman in the wilderness, it will take half an hour, to say the least, if you catch the wrong person, once you cavalry get down this slope, and then want to go back down the slope and come up from the slope along the same road, I am afraid it will take another half an hour. It's been an hour and a half since this came and went, and it was almost around the middle of the day, and in another hour, the Gongsun Sect Master's acupoint path would be completely unlocked, and at that time, we didn't even know where the Sect Master was, so what else was there to chase?"
These words left all the sergeants speechless, and they all looked at the Venerable Jishui to see what decision he was going to make. Venerable Jisui thought for a moment, and then asked the leading sergeant, "You have chased along the goat's hoof prints on the snow all the way, and have you found any anomalies in them?" The leading sergeant hurriedly replied, "If you want to say that there is an abnormality, it is not without it...... We did chase after the goat's hoof prints, and at first the footprints of a woman were faintly visible, but when we reached the fourth hidden stake to the east, a hundred and twenty miles to the south, we saw no more footprints of the woman. At the same time, one of the goats left the group, separated into a separate line of hoof prints, and after stopping in place for a while, went west alone. At that time, I only thought about the order passed down by His Holiness to chase all the way south to the south wall of the northern vein of the Tianshan Mountains, so I didn't pay attention to ......."
Hearing this, the Venerable Jishui raised his eyebrows, and immediately recalled the line of goat's hoof prints that he had seen in the snow just now, and according to the direction, it was the goat that the leading sergeant said was the goat that had left the flock. He immediately came to his senses and blurted out, "I see!" The sect leader and the demon girl surnamed Ning had already left the group halfway and rode a goat to the west, but he asked the girl surnamed Xie and the young man with two eyes to disguise themselves as himself, and followed the flock to the wilderness to the south, and pretended to lure us to chase after us. And once your steed descends this slope, it will not be so easy to come back from below the slope by the time we find out, and the Sect Master has already fled without a trace!"
Thinking of this, the Venerable Jisui sent several sergeants to the place where the fireworks had just been raised to inform the Venerable Ming Huo, telling him to come here to hunt down a man and a woman in the wilderness, and make sure to kill them on the spot. All the remaining sergeants followed the Venerable Ponding Water back to find the goat's hoof prints that they had seen when they came to the west.
Before leaving, Venerable Jishui was unwilling, and immediately mobilized his internal force to scream to a man and a woman in the wilderness: "Third Miss Xie Family, my trick has been seen through by me, so I will spare your life for the time being." If you don't die this time, remember to bring a message to your old father, who was a general, telling him to take care of himself, and later two old friends surnamed Ji and Huo will go to Jinling to ask him for a bowl of wine to drink!"
It is said that after Ning Cui and Zhao Xiaoling entered the wilderness by goat, Ning Cui wanted to continue to ride the sheep south, but Zhao Xiaoling witnessed the ability of Deyi along the way, and he had already admired this little Taoist priest so much that he had to follow the instructions of De Yizi, and let Ning Cui support him to walk forward on foot. Ning Cui argued, and knew that even if he continued to ride the sheep, he would be caught up by the two Venerables Jishui and Minghuo sooner or later, so he abandoned the group of goats after walking for more than ten miles in the wilderness, and supported Zhao Xiaoling to walk forward slowly, so as to take a risk and see if the instructions of the first son worked.
As soon as he traveled two or three miles, he saw a large group of men and horses appear on the slope of the northern vein of the Tianshan Mountains behind, and it was vaguely those fearful soldiers brought by Yan Sidao, and most of the two Venerables Jishui and Open Fire were also among them. Ning Cui was frightened, and almost pulled Zhao Xiaoling to run wildly, fortunately, she was also a smart person, and at this critical juncture, she actually calmed down, continued to move forward slowly, and watched the changes, while also thinking about countermeasures in her mind.
Who knew that it only took a moment to hear the words of the Divine Fire Sect's Jishui Venerable from afar with his internal force, and she was inexplicable when she heard it, and then turned her head to look, and the large group of people and horses on the slope had disappeared without a trace. The panic in Ning Cui's heart suddenly turned into surprise, and he didn't know why Venerable Jishui suddenly gave up chasing him. Zhao Xiaoling was even more confused, the two of them were slightly combined, and remembered that Yizi once said that as long as the danger goes, they will follow how they go, is this so-called "danger" the fearful sergeants who left for no reason on the hillside?
You must know that although Zhao Xiaoling's acupuncture has not been completely unlocked, his hands and feet have already acted as usual, and at this time, even his internal strength has recovered half of it, and he can even barely perform some light skills. And Ning Cui has been in a state of panic since he left Mota today, and he can't wait to end this so-called gamble as soon as possible. At that moment, the two of them didn't think much about it, and they did their best to carry out light work, and just ran to the south.
It is said that Ning Cui's light skills are already outstanding among the younger generation, even Xie Yixiang is three points inferior to her, and Zhao Xiaoling is running desperately with the semi-successful power that has been recovered, and he is not behind her at all. The two of them ran with all their might, and suddenly they were like birds out of the cage and fish entering the water, and they disappeared into the wilderness in an instant. When the Venerable of the Open Flame arrived in front of this slope from the north an hour later, where could they still be found?
