Although there are only 500 elites, which is not a large army, Qi Yoyo does not dare to be careless in the slightest, not to mention that it is known that there is likely to be a Big Tooth Army hidden in this barren mountain. If he marches rashly and runs into the Big Tooth Army's ambush, the consequences will be
The situation was unimaginable. Although Qi Yoyo was eager to save his brother, he did not dare to ignore the lives of five hundred soldiers. Therefore, he followed the essentials of the march all the way, sending scouts to the front to explore the road, and large troops to follow up in an orderly manner from the rear.
It was noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and everyone had been running around in these high mountains for more than three hours. The mountain road was difficult to navigate. Even the elites in the army were a little overwhelmed. Everyone had a look of tiredness on their faces.
, Qi Yoyo saw this and had to give the order to rest.
Zhang Xiaozu sat down leaning on a big tree, put away the subtle state of mind, closed his eyes, and leaned his head on the tree trunk. He kept turning on the subtle state of mind along the way, and when he came out of the cave, he kept it on, so he could control the essence.
The energy consumption was so great that my spirit was exhausted and my head felt slightly dizzy.
"Thank you for your hard work." Qi Yoyo came over, sat down next to Zhang Xiaozu, handed Zhang Xiaozu a tortilla, and said: "Eat something."
It was she who asked Zhang Xiaozu to drive into the subtle state of mind all the way, hoping to use Zhang Xiaozu's subtle state of mind to find clues. Based on the information given by Zhao Quan, she deduced that the traces left by Qi Changkong after escaping into Baihuang Mountain must have been erased, otherwise
With the power of the City Lord's Mansion, even if Baihuang Mountain was very big, it would be impossible for Qi Changkong and his party to go missing for four days.
Even if the traces of erasure are perfectly concealed and no flaw can be seen with the naked eye, they are invisible under the light of the subtle state of mind. This is why Qi Yoyo asked Zhang Xiaozu for help.
Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaozu didn't find anything unexpected after half a day.
"It's a pity that I couldn't help. Thank you." Zhang Xiaozu opened his eyes and replied, with disappointment in his tone. At the same time, he took the tortilla Qi Yoyo handed to him and said thank you.
"Don't worry, the fox will show its tail sooner or later." Qi Yoyo comforted, holding a tortilla in his left hand and eating it in small bites, holding the Tai'a sword in his right hand, and wrote on the ground in front of the two of them with the front end of the scabbard.
Write and draw.
Zhang Xiaozu was eating corn tortillas and looking at it curiously. As the outline of the painting on the ground gradually appeared, his eyes became brighter and brighter. Then he couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What you drew is the topographic map of the Baihuang Mountains."
?”
"Yes." Qi Yoyo nodded and kept moving his hands, drawing and sketching. In Zhang Xiaozu's eyes, it felt like a magic trick. A simple line could vividly outline the shape of a mountain. All the lines
Put together, the entire Baihuang Mountain terrain appears before your eyes.
"Awesome!" Zhang Xiaozhu admired him sincerely.
"I've been doing this since elementary school. I can't say I'm great. Practice makes perfect." Qi Yoyo said modestly. As she said that, she drew a horizontal line in the northeast direction of Baihuang Mountain and said: "This is the area my second brother is responsible for patrolling.
They were ambushed by Daya Army and fled into Baihuang Mountain. Although we don’t know the specific location from which they fled into Baihuang Mountain, their general location should be in this area."
She drew an arc on the northeastern edge of Baihuang Mountain.
"Yeah." Zhang Xiaozu nodded in agreement.
"If you were ambushed by the Daya Army, were seriously injured, and were defeated with the remaining soldiers, which direction would you flee to after escaping into Baihuang Mountain?" Qi Yoyo asked.
Zhang Xiaopou frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then pointed with his bone knife and said: "Of course we should flee towards Yancheng. The closer we are to Yancheng, the greater our hope of escape."
Qi Yoyo nodded and said: "But the Daya Army will definitely not let you run to Yancheng. They will try their best to intercept you, and then the two of you will chase and fight in this barren mountain."
As Qi Yoyo spoke, he lightly drew on the map with the front end of his scabbard, drawing possible routes. He drew more than ten routes in a row.
At first, Zhang Xiaozu didn't understand why Qi Yoyo drew these suspicious routes with no practical meaning, until he suddenly discovered that all the routes pointed to the northwest of Baihuang Mountain, and then he thought that the route he was traveling this morning was heading straight to Baihuang Mountain.
Northwest of Barren Mountain, is it possible that Qi Yoyo just listened to the little intelligence information Zhao Quan said and directly deduced the whereabouts of Qi Changkong? If this is the case, then this woman is too scary!
Zhang Xiaozu looked at Qi Yoyo with a shocked expression on his face. He looked at Qi Yoyo as if he were looking at a monster. An idea suddenly came to his mind. If he and Qi Yoyo each led a team of soldiers and horses, arranged their troops in formation, and attacked and dueled.
, he may be tortured to pieces by Qiyoyo.
Qi Yoyo knew what Zhang Xiaozhu was shocked about, so he pursed his lips and smiled, saying: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not as powerful as you think. In fact, all the inferences I made are based on one message, that is, I
My second brother fled into Baihuang Mountain for four days without any news. Four days was enough time to search Baihuang Mountain from east to west, south to north, but my second brother was still not found. From this, it is obvious that they have probably already
Not in the Baihuang Mountains. In all directions of the Baihuang Mountains, only the Badwater Swamp in the northwest is a sparsely populated place."
"What if there is no such key message? What would you do?" Zhang Xiaozu asked curiously.
Qi Yoyo spread his hands and said: "Then we can only search step by step, but I will give priority to searching these locations."
She drew a few circles on the map and said, "If you can't find any useful clues in these locations, then go straight to Badwater Swamp."
"These locations?" Zhang Xiaozu stared at the locations in Qi Yoyo's circle on the map and couldn't help but frown and think, why does Qi Yoyo value these locations so much?
Qi Yoyo ate the last bite of corn cake, without disturbing Zhang Xiaozu's thinking, but got up and walked towards Zhao Quan. When she came back after explaining the matter to Zhao Quan, she saw that Zhang Xiaozu was still frowning deeply in thought, and couldn't help but
He burst into laughter and asked, "Have you discovered anything?"
"Not at all." Zhang Xiaozhu pinched his wrinkled and numb eyebrows and shook his head. He felt a little uncomfortable. Qi Yoyo had already marked the locations, but he still couldn't see these special places.
I feel that there is a huge gap between myself and Qi Yoyo.
"Then don't think about it now and take a good rest. We'll set off in a quarter of an hour. Here, water." Qi Yoyo smiled and handed the water bag to Zhang Xiaozu.
"Thank you." Zhang Xiaozu took the water bag, raised his head and took a sip. His eyes lit up. The water was cold in his mouth and it was very refreshing. He blurted out: "Relieving Heat Pills."
This reminded him of being in the black forest with Qi Ronger. At that time, Qi Ronger also put a Xiaoshu pill in the water bag, which really quenched her thirst.
"Yeah." Qi Yoyo smiled and nodded.
"Reminds me of a friend. I wonder if she is well?" Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the mutual fight with Qi Ronger. At the same time, he couldn't help but worry about her and whether she could return to Baiyun City safely.
Have you continued to be embarrassed by the eldest daughter of the Qin family and Su Mou?
Liujiacun is gone, Zhang Xiaozhu has only a handful of friends in this world, and Qi Ronger is one of them.
"Female friend?" Qi Yoyo asked with interest.
"Yes." Zhang Xiaozhu nodded, not feeling embarrassed, because the friendship between him and Qi Ronger was life and death and there was no need to hide it.
"She must be very beautiful, gentle and lovely." Qi Yoyo said.
Zhang Xiaozu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, shook his head and said: "Her name is Qi Ronger, she is a vicious little woman with a vicious mouth, a cruel heart and a vicious heart."
"How can you describe your good friend like this?" Qi Yoyo rolled her eyes, but she knew that Zhang Xiaozu could describe this friend like this, which meant that the relationship between them was really very good.
"Introduce us if you have the opportunity." Qi Yoyo said.
"Okay." Zhang Xiaozu said.
A quarter of an hour later, the team set off again, with the scouts already taking the lead.
Climbing up a hill, Zhang Xiaozu looked northwest. Suddenly, he felt a cold pain in the center of his eyebrows, as if he had been pricked by a needle. Then his vision was blood red, as if the heaven and earth, and the mountains were dyed red with blood.
At the same time, his heart beat violently, and an extremely bad feeling arose in his heart.
Zhang Xiaozu was startled by this sudden scene, but he blinked hard and looked forward. The sun was blazing in the sky, the sky was blue and the earth was yellow, the mountains were withered, and everything was normal as before.
"Is it a hallucination?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked suspiciously, but his still beating heart and the bad feeling rising in his heart told him that it didn't seem like a hallucination.
"What's wrong? Did you find anything?" Qi Yoyo noticed Zhang Xiaozu's abnormality and approached him and asked.
"I don't know why, I suddenly felt heart palpitations, and I felt like there was danger ahead." Zhang Xiaozhu didn't hide anything, but he didn't talk about the bloody scene he saw with his eyes, because Qi Yoyo wouldn't believe it if he told her, and instead might think he was hallucinating.
So don't take his words to heart.
Qi Yoyo frowned slightly. If it were anyone else, she might not take it to heart, but Zhang Xiaozu was in a micro state of mind and his perception was a hundred times a thousand times better than that of ordinary people, so he did not dare to be careless and said in a solemn tone: "I will remind everyone.
Be careful."
…
Wan Qiuqing's woman, her hair neatly coiled on her head without any stray hair, was wearing a red-bottomed white flowered wide-sleeved short coat and a black and blue foot-covering skirt. She Shiran walked out of the reed marsh.
The way she moves her hands and feet is full of temperament, and the way she looks and smiles is full of the charm of a mature woman.
Although she was holding a short sword with a blue and white scabbard in her hand, she could not feel any sharpness at all. She looked more like a noble lady from a high-ranking family, holding a gorgeous decorative sword to attend a high-class event.
It's a social banquet.
However, Fang BuTong stared at Wan Qiuqing, who was approaching Shi Shiran, and had no intention of appreciating her noble temperament and feminine charm. As Wan Qiuqing approached step by step, his expression became more and more solemn, and he asked: "Are you
who?"
"Mother!" Qi Changkong's unexpected call gave Fang a different answer.
"Are you the city lord Qi Wuwei's wife Wan Qiuqing who exposed you?" Fang Buping asked in surprise. How could he not be surprised? The information about Wan Qiuqing clearly stated the four characters "ordinary woman", but this woman in front of him
She's not an ordinary woman, she's obviously a super master whose cultivation level he can't even see through.
"It's the slave family." Wan Qiuqing replied with a smile, and then said: "The maze set up over there is good, it actually trapped me for a whole day, it is very powerful."
"You entered the Heaven and Earth Hanging Formation and came out again?!" Fang BuTong exclaimed, his eyes widening with a shocked expression on his face.
"The Great Formation of the Heaven and Earth Hanging upside down? It's a very appropriate name." Wan Qiuqing said, "Do you have a map of the formation? Would you mind using my slave's house to study it for two days?"
"I mind! I mind very much!" Fang Tongtong said firmly, wondering if there was something wrong with Wan Qiuqing's brain circuit, otherwise why would he ask such an idiotic question.
"Stingy!" Wan Qiuqing said displeasedly.
"" is different.
"Haha, mother, why are you here?" Qi Changkong's nose was so happy that he rolled up to meet her. At the same time, he looked around, but he didn't see anyone else. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "
Where is Master? Are you still behind?"
"Stop looking for me, I'm just my mother." Wan Qiuqing said.
"Ah?!" Qi Changkong opened his mouth wide enough to stuff a fist, and then said anxiously: "Mom, why are you here to join in the fun? It's too dangerous here, please go home quickly."
