Hong Ji nodded. The other party refused to elaborate. It was useless for him to ask. He had to catch Su Jing anyway!
With a cruel heart, Hong Ji even put aside the matter of seizing the body and decided to arrest Su Jing, at least to avenge himself.
Sentries went around to trace Su Jing's whereabouts, and additional manpower was dispatched to come for reinforcements. The emperor and Futu waited patiently, and continued to regain their strength by performing their respective duties.
Seven days after breaking out of the siege, Su Jing and the three corpses finally arrived at the edge of the Peeling Country.
Unlike the enemy Qi Feng in the north who hoards heavy troops, the garrison in the southern border is not very strict and there are too many loopholes to exploit. There is no country going forward, and even the rough order of the demons and barbarians is gone, only the fierce mountains and evil are left.
water.
Su Jing stopped on a hill, looked south for a while, nodded to the three corpses beside him, and the three small coffins flapped their wings, carrying the four people into the sky, and then left the skinned country and rushed into the depths of the southern wilderness.
At!
Four days later, the hill where Su Jing once stood began to tremble suddenly. The shallow soil was floating with rocks rustling and scattered. Following the roaring noise, black figures rushed out from under the soil: a hundred large black lizards, the size of
They are all three feet away.
The lizard appeared, sometimes lying on the ground, sometimes raising its head, its nose was twitching non-stop, its mouth was hesitant, and it was hissing incessantly, carefully distinguishing the 'breath' left by Su Jing and others. Then the leader of the big lizard raised his head,
He roared at the leisurely white clouds in the sky, then ran away and returned to the ground, chasing Su Jing and others in the direction they left.
The other lizards followed the leader. The floating cloud in the sky suddenly disintegrated and turned into countless pure white skylarks, flying forward in all directions. The flock of birds covered a wide area, but the general direction of their advance was consistent with Su Jing's.
Three days later, on the same hill, a figure flashed out. A stooped old man in purple stopped and turned his fingers several times, then kneaded and cast a spell. After a while, his hands spread apart, and his left hand wiped his hands from right to left.
Eyes, and the right hand brushes the nose and mouth from top to bottom.
The old man's eyes flashed with mysterious light and changed color. Scenes of mountains, forests, ponds, majestic peaks and lake waves quickly passed through his eyes; his nose quickly twitched, and there was a hissing sound in his mouth. It was clearly the group that had been here before.
The low cry of a large lizard.
There were ripples in the air again, and two more figures flew towards the hill. Futu and Hongji arrived and stood in front of the old man, waiting quietly.
After letting the emperor wait for half a stick of incense, the old man in purple trembled a few times, and the demon evacuated man woke up from his trance.
The emperor was no longer as arrogant as before, and his tone was respectful: "May I ask Mr. Yin, if you may have found traces of the little demon?"
The old man's voice was as loud as a bell: "My 'Earth Photographer' and 'Tianzhui' are all moving, and the little demon has nowhere to hide! We have traced his whereabouts, and there is no way to escape!" After saying this, the evil wind swept up and wrapped him up.
The old man got up and headed south quickly.
After asking this person to help track him, the emperor and others only had to follow him. The two monsters didn't ask any questions and urged Yun Jia to follow behind the old man.
After the emperor passed away, hundreds more black demonic lights escaped, followed Hong Ji and Futu, and plunged from the skinned border into the depths of the Southern Wilderness!
Su Jing, who had left the Peeling Country seven days before his pursuers, and three corpses, were flying rapidly through the air. A big red river appeared in front of him with a thunderous finger: "Is this the river?"
The color was so eye-catching that it was difficult to admit my mistake. Su Jing said: "Get down."
At this time, they had turned to Yuan Chaonian's old route to the south. The elders' notes recorded that they could not fly again after crossing this big red river, otherwise they would cause trouble from the gods!
You don't need to think about it to know that the pursuers behind you are coming in a hurry, but Su Jing really can't afford to cause new trouble now. After weighing the pros and cons, Su Jing finally decided to act according to the instructions of his seniors.
The small coffin sank, carrying Su Jing and flew to the ground, with three corpses on foot guarding each other.
As he walked, Lei Dong said: "If it's like what Yuan Chaonian said, it would be easy."
Nian Hua also nodded: "It's just that the journey is a little slow, but it doesn't matter. When the snake demon and the others come here, they have to walk on two legs like us, so everyone goes slowly."
Akame only said two words this time: "Hedgehog."
There was a soft rustle of fallen leaves under his feet, and a little hedgehog waddled into everyone's sight, with two leaves strung on his back.
Perhaps it was because few people came to the Southern Wilderness. The hedgehog was so stupid that he didn't know that the people in front of him were in danger. He didn't change his direction and just walked towards them clumsily.
He was not a monster, nor was he a senior expert, but Su Jing acted like a lunatic. He jumped from the small coffin to the ground, clasped his fists and saluted, with a smile on his face and a kind voice: "I'm Su Jing, a group of four brothers are going to the south, so this way
Treasure land, I have absolutely no intention of offending, and I would like to ask the great immortal to make it easier for me."
The three corpses followed Su Jing and clasped their fists together: "Please forgive me for being rude."
The hedgehog showed no reaction at all, staggered to the feet of everyone, walked around in a small circle, and walked over
Su Jing and others also continued to move forward. Less than halfway through the incense stick, there was movement ahead, and a wild goat came towards them. Just like last time, Su Jing dropped to the ground and clasped his fists to report where he was going.
The wild goat was not much smarter than the hedgehog. It glanced at Su Jing blankly and strolled past them.
In the next few hours of traveling, whenever a squirrel, a deer, a pheasant or even a toad met each other head-on, no matter what kind of animal it was, Su Jing and the three corpses would greet and salute them, but without exception, the other party would pass by without any reaction.
.
Nianhua finally couldn't help it anymore: "Su Qiangqiang, I think we look like fools."
There was no need for his old man's reminder. Su Jing felt that he was no longer a smart person when he worshiped the hedgehog from the very beginning. However, Yuan Chaonian's note clearly stated that after the Red River, there are mountains. Whenever an animal comes towards you, you must salute. This will ensure your safety all the way.
Safety.
Fortunately, the senior specifically told him not to pay attention to insects such as flies, flies, and ants, otherwise Su Jing would have to bow and move forward.
Lei Dong frowned: "Is this true? They are obviously ordinary beasts."
Akame had an idea: "Boss, take a detour and don't be polite to the animals to see if they really have any means of revenge? It doesn't matter if they die anyway, they can still come back."
Lei Dong drew inferences from one example: "How about this, let the flowers fly directly into the sky and spin around, maybe there will be no trouble at all?"
Nianhua: "I have a stomachache and want to poop."
Su Jing laughed and was about to speak. Suddenly a red-skinned fox appeared in the dense forest in front of him. This is a truly cunning thing. Other animals may not be afraid of 'unknown people', but foxes will be scared when they see strange things.
Be particularly vigilant.
But this fox was obviously not afraid of Su Jing and his party, and walked toward them with its fluffy tail waving.
It's completely abnormal when it comes forward.
Nian Hua asked in a low voice: "Do you still want to salute?"
Nianhua’s tone was vague: “Or try ignoring it?”
Lei Dong said softly: "Rather than ignore it, it's better to do it simply." Before he could say the words "eat it", Su Jing jumped off the coffin again, clasped his fists, and saluted, repeating the same words as before.
What he was doing was indeed ridiculous, but Su Jing could see another thing clearly: half a day's journey was safe and sound!
Ever since I left Peipian, no matter in the sky or on the ground, there has never been peace for half an hour while traveling south. Wild monsters, poisonous clouds and evil miasma, and all kinds of crises have emerged one after another. There has never been such peace as today.
This alone is enough to conclude that the senior's instructions are sincere and sincere.
Unlike other animals, the red-skinned fox stopped just ten feet in front of Su Jing. It seemed to be able to interpret people's words. After listening to what he said, the fox raised its eyes and looked at Su Jing first, then looked at him for walking.
little coffin, and then turned back to look at him.
Su Jing explained: "I was injured, so I used a magic weapon to take my place. If it was a last resort, please ask the Immortal to be accommodating."
The fox could listen or speak, and didn't react much, but stood in front of it and refused to give way. Obviously, its rules were much greater than those of other animals: it could only walk on foot, and it wasn't even allowed to fly close to the ground!
Now that he has entered the country, he must either follow the customs thoroughly or play tricks to the end. Su Jing turned back to Akame and said, "Take the child's coffin."
Akame accepted her little coffin as she was told, and the fox showed a look of satisfaction in its eyes. It had no other demands, and it actually knew etiquette. It stood up, hugged Su Jing with its front paws, and even gave Su Jing a fist-clenching gesture.
Then he lowered his body and returned to normal. He walked forward and passed by Su Jing.
Nothing happened, but when the red-skinned fox passed by Su Jing, he seemed to notice something. His body trembled slightly, and he turned back to look at Su Jing.
Su Jing was puzzled and asked a few questions. When he saw no response from the other party, he stopped talking nonsense. He winked at the three corpses to warn everyone to be careful, pulled Akame over to use as a crutch, and walked forward.
The fox turned around and followed the four people more than ten feet away, without any movement at all.
Going further, less than five miles away, a sudden gust of fishy wind blew over, and a large, colorful python with a tumor on its head sprang out of the dense forest, its body swaying menacingly!
It's not a monster, it's just a strange ferocious beast from the depths of the Southern Wilderness, but the aura of its appearance is no less than that of a six-spirited demon eye!
This was the first evil beast encountered after crossing the Red River. The three corpses were on guard. Su Jing followed the instructions of his predecessors and clasped his fists in salute. At this time, he finally saw that Yuan Chaonian's record was true. Su Jing showed respect, and the vicious python restrained its hostility.
, stepped out of the way.
After Su Jing passed by, the boa constrictor faced the fox behind them, and its body immediately folded obediently, with its head the size of a millstone sunk inside its body, as if a slave had seen its master.
The red-skinned fox turned a blind eye to it and ignored it completely.
During the subsequent journey, Su Jing and others encountered various ferocious beasts. He kept the etiquette so that they would not hurt anyone. In addition, whether it was a wild monster lion as huge as a hill or a mandrill savage who was born with no fear, Su Jing had no fear of the beasts adorned behind his back.
The foxes were all like the giant pythons before, cowering aside, showing all respect.
The situation is very clear, this is the territory of the fox, and the rules of "no flying, only walking, asking for courtesy when meeting animals, and signing up to come" were also set by the fox.
Yuan Chaonian may not have discovered that it was the 'Fox in Chief', but he understood the rules here. According to what the handwriting said, Su Jing's journey was safe and sound, but the records of his predecessors did not mention that the fox would follow.
At dusk, there is no longer a fox behind Su Jing. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site), give rewards, and your support is my biggest motivation.)
