The distance is so far that you can't hear what is being said on the other side even if you stay up there. And if you don't go home, you might be discovered by the other side.
"It's better to go down and have a look."
Yang Ji felt moved and left the room. Just outside the inn, Yang Ji found a good observation position, ordered some good restaurants, pretended to be a diner, and drank.
From noon to sunset, a "Traveling Merchant" came out of the inn as expected. In the evening, the sky was getting dark, and the distance between them was no longer clear.
"Crunch!"
Suddenly, a faint sound came into his ears. Yang Ji's heart skipped a beat and he looked suddenly. He saw a window open behind the inn. Just when the pedestrians on both sides were dwindling and no one was paying attention, a figure appeared.
It slid down like a civet cat and merged into the street.
"really!"
Yang Ji thought to himself.
This man saw off the "guests" at the front door, but jumped out of the window and left from the back. If Yang Ji hadn't paid attention, he wouldn't have been able to find him.
"It's so late, I wonder where he is going?"
Yang Ji didn't have time to think too much, so he left the drink money on the table, climbed over the railing, and jumped off the second floor. The opponent was extremely powerful, and Yang Ji didn't dare to get too close. He could only use the crowd and the shadows of the evening to jump from a distance.
Tracking his back.
"Is this a change of nest? A restaurant? No!"
Yang Ji followed the leader of the Tianyin Sect, passing by restaurants, deep houses, teahouses, etc. The earlier he got, the farther he went. The other party deliberately chose to avoid official offices and military offices, and also chose places with fewer patrols.
location, obviously very familiar with the situation in Pingchuan City.
In just a blink of an eye, the other party approached a residential area in Pingchuan City.
"Does he want to hide in a residential area?"
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
Residential areas are full of fish and dragons, and it is most convenient to hide there. If the Tianyin Sect wants to choose a hiding place, this is undoubtedly the best place, and it will also be more troublesome to search.
"Huh? No! Where are we going?"
Yang Ji's brows jumped. The other party turned a corner before entering the residential area and left. Yang Ji became more and more suspicious. If he wasn't going to an inn or restaurant or a residential area, then where was he going?
?
Yang Ji's doubts did not last long, and soon the answer was revealed. A huge golden city gate appeared in front of him, with two rows of gatekeepers lined up.
"He wants to get out of the city!"
Yang Ji's heart was pounding.
The city gate will be closed in a while, and this senior leader of the Tianyin Sect actually wants to leave the city gate before this happens!
There are a large number of guards at the city gate. If you summon the soldiers at the city gate at this time, it is completely late. Yang Ji's heart is pounding. The distance is getting closer and closer...
If you want to catch him, you are undoubtedly the best opportunity. However, Yang Ji is undecided. What if the other party denies it? What evidence does he have to prove the other party's identity?
Moreover, the opponent's strength is extremely high, with cultivation levels of the fourth and fifth levels of martial arts. Such a strong strength is far higher than that of the guards at the city gate. If they get angry, there is a great chance of breaking out of the city gate.
, won’t it be a failure by then?
But what if the other party just disappears? Wouldn’t all my efforts have been wasted!
Yang Ji was hesitant in his heart. Seeing the other party quickly passing through the city gate, Yang Ji sighed heavily in his heart, but in the end he did not take action.
"Forget it, I'll hit the snake within an inch of its length. It's better to follow him and see what he's going to do!"
There is a smooth road outside the city gate. It is easy to be discovered if you follow him at this time. Yang Ji hesitated for a while, and finally fell some distance behind.
It only took a moment, but when Yang Ji caught up again, the road was dusty but empty. There was no human being at all for hundreds of meters.
"He went into the mountains."
A flash of lightning flashed in Yang Ji's mind.
Outside Pingchuan City, there are vast mountains. Under the dim sky, Cui Wei looked ferocious, like a giant beast.
"No, it's difficult to track him in the deep mountains. Moreover, there are very few people in the mountains, so it's easy to be discovered by him if you follow him."
Yang Ji was silent. Time was running out, and if he didn't make a decision, he would easily lose track of his target.
Yang Ji's heart moved. He leaned down and rolled up his sleeves, only to see a small black snake as small as a rope wrapped around his arm. After the martial arts examination swallowed the heart of Shi Qing's steel-backed ape, Xiao Ji fell asleep for a while. Still.
Later, I recovered a little, but overall, I became more quiet and less active.
Yang Ji had a vague feeling in his heart that Xiao Ji was in some special period of evolution.
"Xiaoji."
Yang Ji patted the little snake's body and whispered: "I'm afraid this matter will trouble you. Follow that person and find out where he went. But don't be discovered by him."
"hiss!"
Xiao Ji spat out the message, nodded, and let go of Yang Ji's arm.
"Whoosh!"
The black shadow flashed, and "Xiao Ji" shot into the grass on the roadside like an arrow from the string. With a bow of his body, there was a sound of soil, and he penetrated deeply into the ground.
"Xiao Ji" is the king of snakes, and he has his own way of tracking prey. Although Yang Ji cannot pinpoint the opponent's traces, Xiao Ji can.
Seeing "Xiao Ji" get into the ground and fly away, Yang Ji breathed a long sigh of relief: "Now we are just waiting for the news."
He stood up and, as if something happened, walked directly along the official road and disappeared into the distance.
Deep in the mountain forest, somewhere beyond the reach of the eye, a burly figure huddled up, restrained all its aura, and hid behind a rock under the shade of a tree, silently staring down the mountain.
Looking from his position, if someone was following him, there was no way he could escape his eyes.
Time passed slowly, and the figure became as motionless as a rock.
After half an hour, the man stood up from behind the rock. It was the Tianyin Sect leader with three green flames on his wrist that Yang Ji was tracking.
"It seems I'm being paranoid."
The man murmured.
Since noon, he has been having a vague feeling that he is being followed. This feeling is vague, and there are so many people in the city that it is difficult to distinguish, so he can't tell the truth from the false.
But now it seems that it was obviously his illusion.
"time to go."
The man smiled slightly, threw off his merchant clothes, and then spread out his limbs, like a galloping horse. He went straight into the depths of the mountain forest. The sky was getting darker and darker, and everything in the deep mountains was quiet at this time.
Deep in the soil, invisible to the eye, a tiny black snake followed him as tightly as lightning, flying away. The soil was loose in front of it, as if it didn't exist...
…
Several miles away from the city gate, Yang Ji was waiting silently on the roadside. He did not go far. He just stopped when he left the field of vision that the Tianyin Sect leader could see.
After "Xiao Ji" entered the forest, he was like a mud cow entering the sea, as silent as a sound. Yang Ji could do nothing but wait silently.
The sky was completely dark, there was no bright moon, but the sky was full of shining stars like pearls inlaid above. There was only a loud bang, and the entire Pingchuan City completely closed its door.
Yang Ji just glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.
"I wonder how Xiao Ji is doing."
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
"Xiao Ji" took a long time to go, and Yang Ji was not sure to pay attention to where he went.
Time passed slowly, one hour passed, two hours passed...
"Xiaoji" is still missing.
Yang Ji was a little worried, but soon told An Wei not to think too much about it.
"Xiao Ji is the king of snakes. Even if he cannot be defeated, he can still escape. Moreover, it walks through the mud. Unless he is a military general or a figure of the same level as the Wuzong, he cannot be found at all."
Military generals and Wu Zong have keen perceptions and strong warrior intuition, and can easily detect things on the surface of the earth. Unless Xiao Ji hides deep in the earth, otherwise he cannot escape the perception of strong men like military generals and Wu Zong.
However, the leader of the Tianyin Sect with three green flames tattooed on his wrist is obviously not that strong yet.
"His!"
Yang Ji took a deep breath and simply practiced his boxing skills on the roadside, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth. With a rumble, he heard a sound like wind and thunder, and Yang Ji turned into a dazzling ball of blood leaping and moving in the darkness, and the essence continued to flow from all directions.
Inhaled...
"call!"
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, a strong gust of wind passed by, and a small black shadow in the grass on the roadside fell into Yang Ji's arms.
"Xiao Ji!"
Yang Ji screamed in surprise, and it turned out to be Xiao Ji, with debris from the ground still on his body.
"Xiao Ji. Did you find out where he went?"
Yang Jidao.
"His!"
Xiao Ji nodded towards Yang Ji, then jumped out of his palm and threw himself into the grass behind him. Yang Ji was surprised and happy, Xiao Ji was clearly leading the way.
"Haha. Okay! Xiaoji, you lead the way, and I'll follow behind."
Yang Ji lowered his body, leaned close to the ground, and used the unique skill of "flying on the grass". Like a human-shaped snake, dragging the billowing waves of air, he followed Xiao Ji and plunged into the vast mountains.
The wind howled on both sides, and the scenery flew backwards like water. The huge Pingchuan City quickly became smaller and farther behind.
In just half an hour, Pingchuan City disappeared. But Xiao Ji was flying over the grass and tree tops with no sign of stopping.
For an hour, Yang Ji tried his best to catch up. A "warrior" of this level used all his strength to rush forward at an incredible speed. Pingchuan City had long been abandoned, but Xiao Ji showed no sign of stopping.
Two hours... Xiao Ji still didn't stop. The blood in Yang Ji's body was depleted very quickly, and sweat was dripping from his forehead. At this time, even he didn't know where he was. He only knew that he was far away from Pingchuan City, at least not far away.
There are more than four to five hundred miles away.
"Where is this? Why is it so far away?"
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
The current path is becoming more and more remote, and it is deep in the mountains and inaccessible. Even warriors are unlikely to come to such a remote place.
Just when Yang Ji was tired and almost exhausted, Xiao Ji in front finally stopped.
"boom!"
Before Yang Ji could ask, he heard an earth-shattering roar, and the ground beneath his feet shook.
Yang Ji suddenly raised his head, and under the dim starry sky, he saw in the mountains in the distance, a wave of fire, like a column of air erupting from a volcano, soaring up to an altitude of nearly a hundred meters. Within a radius of nearly a hundred meters, the mountains and forests were illuminated.
