Chapter 388 389 Elaborate Trap
The Lou team has been walking on the snowy field in the ancient ice land for nearly half a month.
On the boundless frozen snow field, searching almost blindly.
The traces of Arctic musk ox are hard to find, the only clue is their footprints through the snowfields and the feces they leave behind.
But this kind of footprints and feces on the snow will be buried by wind and snow in almost a few days, thus leaving no trace. If their footprints can be seen, it means that their distance will be very close.
Unfortunately, they searched around the ice field and found many ice beasts, but they never saw any clues about the Arctic Musk Ox.
It is not uncommon for beast kings like the Ice Storm Bear King in the ancient ice desert, and they are quite powerful. Once they appear, you must take a detour carefully to avoid provoking them.
Although they can also defeat the Beast King, the heavy price they paid is not something that the Lou team can bear. Moreover, their goal is not simply hunting the Beast Clan.
The Lou brothers and sisters couldn't help but be anxious. If this continues, they may have to return empty-handed again after going deep into the ancient ice land.
"Brother, what should I do? There is no trace of the Northern Ice Musk Ox. We have wasted a few months in this ancient ice land, and there are only two or three months left before my mother's birthday. We must rush there as soon as possible."
"Oh, I'll look for another month. If it really doesn't work, we can only find a way to go to the imperial city and buy some ordinary birthday gifts."
Most of the more than ten Wuhous of the Lou team were silent along the way and had different thoughts.
Some people are all focused on hunting low-level ice beasts, hoping to take advantage of this last time that King Wu led his team to the ancient ice desert to earn more Yuan stones so that they can be used for cultivation.
Some are half-hearted and leave inconspicuous traces along the way from time to time, guiding the direction for the team of two tigers in the ice deserted distance behind.
Most of Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue were looking for the place where the mammoth was buried, and a half were on the mysterious tracking team behind him.
However, after the raid from the Icestorm Bear King that night, the following ten days later, the tracking team had not appeared for a long time, which made Gu Xinyue quite puzzled.
She could not see the stalkers who were not in the field of view, and did not know if those people were still there.
Only Ye Fan's Yin Emperor's golden eyes can see the reaction of the vital energy in the distance.
"Why did the team tracking that group did not move for more than ten days? They were still following behind?"
She asked Ye Fan in a low voice.
"After following, they probably were waiting for a good opportunity! After the ice storm Bear King attacked the camp, the Lou brothers and sisters became much more vigilant. At night, at least three Wuhous were arranged to take turns to watch, and they did not have the right opportunity to start.
I observed that the team that followed these days was probably only two martial kings. If they fought head-on, their chances of winning were not very high, and the price they paid would be relatively high. Therefore, their tactics are most likely to be a surprise attack and win with one blow!"
Ye Fan nodded slightly.
"Raising? Ambush, or traps or something!"
Gu Xinyue couldn't help but worry and said, "Why don't we just take the initiative and pull them out?"
Ye Fan thought for a moment, smiled and shook his head: "No need, they will definitely not be able to hold back and jump out to attack. We just need to wait and see how they take action. Moreover, this is also an experience, let the Lou brothers and sisters learn a lesson, and be more careful in the future, and don't put the enemy spies into the team."
He did not take this tracking squad to heart.
He didn't even need to take action, just Gu Xinyue used the body of the purple phoenix, and the tracking team would be destroyed in an instant.
Whether it is a trap, an ambush, or a night attack, it is not worth mentioning in his eyes, and it can only be the result of his own humiliation.
"Okay!"
Gu Xinyue nodded.
It would be easy for her and Ye Fan to take the initiative to destroy the team behind him that was tracking far away.
But this is not much beneficial to the Lou brothers and sisters from the imperial city.
The martial arts practitioners go out to practice adventures, and they have to face various dangers and challenges. It is also very beneficial to give them more experience in the dangerous ancient land of ice. Even if they suffer some losses or get hurt, it is a good thing.
Hunters in the ancient ice land have never lacked patience and calmness. It is a casual thing to bury themselves in the ice and snow in the snow for ten days and half a month to observe prey.
Either you don’t take action, or you will kill with one blow, killing your throat, leaving the prey without any strength to struggle against the attack.
Otherwise, the dying struggle of prey can easily cause heavy damage to the hunter. Being severely damaged in the ancient ice land is not a good thing, and it can easily become prey in the eyes of other hunters.
The eldest black tiger among the two tigers of the Ice Desert has been hunting in the ancient land of the Ice Desert for decades. He has always been cautious and patient enough to observe his prey and has taken this fatal blow. He has never failed.
Although the second child is sloppy with his eyes, he has always obeyed the orders of Heihu and will not act without permission.
Binghuang Shuanghu led the team to follow the Lou team for nearly half a month. Except for the test of the Ice Storm Bear King, he kept watching for more than ten days without any action.
Even the Lou team relaxed and did not keep a close eye on the guard at night.
"Brother, it's been half a month since we entered the ancient ice desert. Our in-house surveillance observes the two faced men at close range every day, and it turns out that their strength is very common.
The female Arm-faced Martial King was no more skilled than Lou Yu when she fought fiercely with the Ice Storm Bear King. The man Arm-faced man was even more a joke, the young master who was eating and drinking for free. Our spies had never seen him do anything serious. When they came to this ancient ice land, they were like traveling around, and even the barbecue was served by the woman.
As for me, he must be the son of a prominent clan in Zixuan Imperial City. He married a unmarried wife of King Wu and came to visit the ancient land of Binghuang. This fat sheep is probably fatter than Lou Yu! After slaughtering him, we can be happy for at least several years! Brother, don’t let this fat fish go away!”
The thin man with white eyes licked his lips, and there was a strong sense of greed in his heart.
Slaughtering this group of fat sheep not only allows you to get a lot of money, but also a beautiful female faced man with excellent figure and a little girl named Lou Qing.
In the ice desert town, it is rare to meet such a tender and meek little girl.
Unfortunately, the boss is not good at being a woman and is devoted to martial arts, so he is not good at saying this.
"Well! Okay, there is another heavy snow tonight, and it is a good time to hunt! Let's give the Lou brothers and sisters a surprise meeting gift! Let's go!"
The thick-browed man looked at the gloomy sky and laughed coldly. He had already thought about how to give the Lou brothers and sisters a fatal blow.
"Okay! Brothers, I have been waiting for more than ten days and am ready to slaughter fat sheep. I'm all energetic!"
The thin man with white eyes was overjoyed.
The Wuhou of the Ice Wilderness Twin Tigers were all screaming excitedly, and followed the Ice Wilderness Twin Tigers to the distance.
It was getting late, and it was only half an hour left before it was completely dark.
The martial arts cultivator has much stronger eyesight than ordinary people. With just a little starlight on the starry night, you can see the situation in the distance.
But there is no starlight in the ancient ice desert, and once it reaches night, it will be completely dark. Even Wuhou can't see clearly the situation several miles away in the middle of the night in the ancient ice desert.
Once nightfall, you need to camp and rest.
Now it's all dark, and there's still half an hour left.
A Wuhou of the Lou team hunted a fat snow rabbit for dinner. He was about to return to the team when he suddenly saw some messy but strange footprints ahead.
The footprints are slightly like the double petals of lotus without lotus hearts, but there is a little more plum blossom core.
These footprints stretched out endlessly on the snowfield.
He has been here in this ancient ice land for many years, but he has never seen such strange beast footprints. He couldn't help but shout to the team thousands of feet away, "Hey, who knows what footprints are?"
Soon, another Wuhou, who was closest, came over quickly.
"This is definitely the footprint of the Arctic musk ox! I used to follow an old adventure king into the ancient land of the Binghuang. I once saw it. He said that this is the footprint of the Arctic musk ox, exactly the same as the mark in front of me. But after I followed it, I could not find the group of Arctic musk ox. This has always been a great regret for me."
His face changed and he was shocked.
Soon, Wu Hou remembered something and hurriedly said to the Lou Yu brother and sister not far away, "Captain Lou! Look, the footprints of the Northern Ice Musk Ox."
blow!
blow!
Lou Yu and Lou Qing and his sister both rushed over, with an obvious expression of excitement.
Lou Yu squatted on the ground, quickly looked at the large number of footprints in front of him, and compared them with the footprints he recorded in his heart. He couldn't help but be ecstatic: "Yes, this is the footprint of the Arctic musk ox! It turns out that a small group of Arctic musk ox walked past here, and his efforts paid off. I spent a lot of months and finally found them."
Before coming to the ancient land of Ice Desert, he made sufficient preparations and searched for a large amount of information about the Arctic musk ox in the imperial city. He naturally found the footprints and shapes of the Arctic musk ox.
"Brother, it's great. We finally found the Arctic musk ox. Let's hunt them now. And this is a small group. After we hunt, we can get at least several Arctic musks! This thing has a very high life-long effect, and my mother will definitely be very happy!"
Lou Qing's face was also flushed and she was very excited.
Soon, more than ten other members of the Lou team also flew over and came to the vicinity where the footprints of the Arctic Musk Ox appeared. They observed the footprints and were surprised.
The materials on the Arctic Musk Ox are much more expensive than ordinary beast marquis. In addition, the extremely rare number of this beast tribe in the ancient ice desert, hunting a beast marquis-level Arctic Musk Ox is comparable to hunting a beast king.
Once the hunt is successful, even ordinary members of the Lou team will gain a lot.
Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue also appeared quickly and observed their footprints.
Gu Xinyue was a little confused.
The Lou team has only been half a month after entering the ancient land of Ice Desert. It seems a bit too easy to find the footprints of the Arctic Musk Ox in such a short time.
You know, even many adventure kings have been searching for the ancient ice land for many years, but have not seen any trace of the Northern Ice Musk Ox. The Lou team is so lucky that they can meet it if they want to?!
She couldn't help but look at Ye Fan, as if asking if there was any fraud in it?!
Ye Fan knew what she was thinking.
This is indeed the footprint of the Arctic musk ox. Its shape and even the breath on the footprint are the breath of the Arctic musk ox. Moreover, there are a few traces of ice grass and feces in the footprint, indicating the living conditions of this small group of Arctic musk ox.
He picked up an ice grass in his footprint and looked at it, looking at the messy footprints that stretched far away, and shook his head with a contemptuous smile, without saying a word.
This footprint trap is really beautiful, which shows how well-intentioned the person who sets the trap. Even experienced old hunters can't see any flaws and are very easy to be fooled.
Gu Xinyue and Ye Fan had long been in harmony. Seeing a hint of sarcasm flashing across his face, his heart suddenly became clear. Although he didn't understand where the problem was, it was enough to know that there was something wrong with the footprint.
