Ten figures slipped into the woods and disappeared.
Everyone stared at the green smoke curling up from the incense burner, feeling that the days seemed like years.
Baili Mingyi frowned: "Is Master Sikong's incense too thick?"
"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Yu Zifu squinted his eyes and sunk his whole body into the chair, so lazily that he almost fell asleep: "If Miss Mingyi can't wait, you can leave now."
Baili Mingyi's eyes lit up and she was about to stand up when she heard the man's faint voice continue: "But, you are violating the rules now. If you violate the rules, Xiao Chu will win."
Baili Mingyi stiffened and lowered her head to hide the unwillingness in her eyes. Then she let Lin Chu live a little longer, and her death would be even more miserable!
"Ha." Baili Yunsheng suddenly raised his lips and chuckled, looking sideways at Lin Zhi beside him: "I heard that Sect Master Lin has a deep relationship with your younger brother, why did he let her sign a life and death contract? What if someone happens later?
What's wrong, how do you explain it to Mr. Chief Assistant?"
Lin Zhi only curled up the corners of his lips: "I believe her! Could it be that you don't like your cousin?"
Baili Yunsheng opened his mouth, but all the words behind him were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say another word.
"Haha." Li Tianshou clapped his hands and laughed: "I believe her! The old man is becoming more and more interested in Xiao Chu. Your family loves each other. I wonder if the sect master can help her with a few words and tell her to quickly become my teacher!"
Dan Qing's eyes on the side narrowed and he looked back at Lin Zhi.
Under the sun, the man with the fairy-like appearance only raised his eyes slightly. His long and narrow phoenix eyes were as cold as ice, and he glanced at Li Tianshou casually: "Get out!"
Li Tianshou's smile froze, he touched his nose and lowered his head.
But Dan Qing curled up the corners of her lips: "Sect Leader Lin said it well. Chu Chu's ability is obvious to all, so we should naturally trust her."
Lin Zhi glanced at him without saying a word, his eyes were as cold as ice and there was no emotion at all.
The last smoke ring in the incense burner slowly dissipated into the sky and earth. Baili Mingyi's eyes burst out with excitement and cruel light. She waved her hand and disappeared into the woods.
She divided her men into five groups and carefully surveyed the forest.
In the end, nothing was found on the tree crowns, by the river, or in the grass. Lin Chu and the other ten people seemed to disappear out of thin air, leaving no trace at all.
Baili Mingyi half-cast her eyes. The trees in the autumn have not yet withered, and their overlapping leaves cover the sky and the sun. It is a good place to hide.
"Look carefully for me!" she said coldly.
Lin Chu is not a god! Her subordinates are neither!
It was impossible for them to grow wings and fly to heaven and earth. As long as they entered the forest, they would definitely leave clues.
With one stick of incense, they had no chance of completely eradicating the traces!
On the forest floor, a thick layer of fallen leaves has accumulated over the years, and the lower layers are covered with new leaves before they rot. It feels soft under your feet, like a fine Persian carpet.
This place is not far from the Dragon Vein, and the Iron-Blooded Guard patrols here all year round. The fallen leaves have been trampled and broken by horse hooves, and are in a mess. There are also traces of wild beasts occasionally.
A small soldier in the Imperial Guard fell to the ground and stared at the fallen leaves on the ground with his eyes narrowed for a moment.
After a long time, Baili Mingyi lost her patience and frowned: "Wei Shi, hurry up!"
She has always set her sights high, and even though these people are all carefully selected by Baili Yunsheng, they still cannot gain her high regard and respect.
She didn't want to bother remembering the names of unimportant people, so she numbered them from one to ten.
Wei Shi was not in a hurry, his eyes fell on the leaves, as if he had seen them for thousands of years. Time and space seemed to be standing still at this moment.
