"who……"
At this moment, Chen Cang suddenly saw a face flashing in the shadow on the top of the cave. He was startled. Sword energy surged around his body, and his spirit suddenly became tense to the extreme. But soon, he saw clearly. , that is not a person, but a bat.
The bat was the size of a baby's hand, with dark wings and dark red patterns. It vaguely outlined a baby's face, which was also the face Chen Cang had seen before.
"I was shocked. It turned out to be a baby bat."
Chen Cang chuckled secretly, shook his head, and secretly thought that he was too nervous, but that's no wonder. Being hunted every day these days, why wouldn't it be weird if he wasn't nervous?
But immediately, Chen Cang suddenly raised his head, stared at the baby bat, and his expression suddenly changed: "No, why is there a baby bat here?"
The baby bat is a strange monster. It is different from ordinary bats. It likes the sun and hates the shade. It travels during the day and feeds on the blood of babies. It also has baby patterns on its wings, so it is named baby bat.
Therefore, baby bats have always only lived on the surface of the earth and in sunny places, such as dark and humid caves, underground, etc. There are no baby bats at all.
But now, he saw a baby bat in the dark and humid underground river. Is this normal?
Obviously, this is not normal.
"Damn it, it's the Bat Mage!"
Suddenly, Chen Cang seemed to have thought of something. He raised his eyebrows and shot out a sword light from his eyes. The baby bat was unable to dodge and was split in half by the sword light and fell to the ground.
But Chen Cang was not at all happy, but looked ugly.
If what he expected was correct, the baby bat was not an ownerless thing, but a pet kept by the bat mage.
Bat Mage, one of the seventy-two elders of the Water and Land Alliance, a real-life master. The technique he practices is the "Bat King Canon". He has unparalleled lightness skills. He is especially good at domesticating and raising bats and other pets. Although he is not good at fighting head-on, he is good at finding traces. , extremely difficult to deal with, so people in the world call him Bat Master.
Now that the baby bat is seen here, there is no doubt that the bat mage and the people from the Seventy-Two Land and Water Alliance will come soon.
"Damn, how did they find me?"
Chen Cang cursed angrily. Before entering the underground river, he not only erased all the traces, but also used secrecy to lure the people of the Seventy-Two Water and Land Alliance to other places. He did not believe that the other party could find the underground river in a short time. After all, the lake is bottomless, and most people would never imagine that there is an underground river at the bottom of the lake.
Well, even if it can be found, there are many tributaries of the underground river and there is no clue. Even if the people of the Seventy-Two Alliance want to find it, they will have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources. It will take less than ten days and a half to find it.
But the fact is that it only took the other party two days to not only find the entrance to the underground river, but also find his hiding place, which is outrageous.
"Why is it like this again?" Chen Cang roared, his eyes about to split, his face full of viciousness and unwillingness, and even a trace of fear.
Why do I say "again"? It's because this is not the first time something like this has happened.
With numerous means of saving his life and escaping, in the past few days, he had not had the chance to escape from the siege and pursuit of the Seventy-two Land and Water Alliance. There were even times when he had clearly escaped from the opponent and hid, and the members of the Seventy-two Land and Water Alliance He also left, but not long after, the other party found him inexplicably. With divine help, all his efforts were in vain.
This time, again.
It was as if there was a hand in the dark, controlling his life, death and destiny, playing with all of them.
This feeling made him angry, powerless, and frightened.
"Damn it, who is it?"
He scolded him, but he still had to run away. Chen Cang did not hesitate to rush towards the depths of the underground river. Now that the baby bat had discovered him, it would not be long before the Bat Mage and the people from the Seventy-Two Water and Land Alliance... They will arrive. If you don’t run away now, when will you wait?
In about the time it took to burn an incense, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the upper reaches of the underground river, and then a group of black bats flew out of the cave.
When they flew to the place where Chen Cang had rested, the bats swarmed down and turned into a thin, white-faced, beardless old man.
At the same time, the water in the underground river surged and turned into a wave, gently sending a charming and delicate woman in a palace dress to the old man's side.
"How about it, mage?"
The woman asked, her voice as soft as water, charming and affectionate.
"Chen Cang is indeed hiding here, and he just left not long ago."
The old man, naturally the Bat Mage, replied: "He must have discovered my baby bat, so he left in a hurry. The innate body-breaking invisible sword energy on the baby bat has not completely dissipated."
"Cunning Rabbit Sanku, this man from Sword Tomb is really good at saving his life, and we almost let him escape this time."
The woman in palace attire said, her name is Water Fairy, and like Bat Mage, she is both a real person and one of the elders of the Seventy-Two Water and Land Alliance.
After chasing Chen Cang for so long, they have certainly figured out Chen Cang's origins.
"Master, do you know who spread these true news?"
Water Fairy wondered, every time they lost track of Chen Cang or couldn't find Chen Cang, some rumors would spread in the world, saying that Chen Cang was hiding somewhere?
At first, they were dubious, but when someone found Chen Cang based on a certain rumor, they had to believe it.
Of course, the reason why rumors are rumors is, on the one hand, because it is unknown who spread the news, and on the other hand, because not all of the news is accurate, and may be true or false, right or wrong.
When it was true, they only needed to search for Chen Cang by following the map. Based on rumors, they found Chen Cang who almost escaped several times. But when false, they could also be very wrong. After they tasted the sweetness, they ignored the news and went there. Looking for Chen Cang, naturally ended up in vain, wasting a lot of time.
Anyway, it's weird.
It's not like they haven't checked the origin of the rumor, who spread it, and where it came from, but they couldn't find out.
Because some of those rumors came from Ni'erhui, some from Queerfei, some from beggars on the roadside, and some from the gambling houses... …
Not only that, some forces that are hostile or have grudges against the Seventy-two Water and Land Alliance, or those who cannot understand the style of the Seventy-two Water and Land Alliance, or those who pretend to be rewarded for money, will fabricate some false information to disrupt Their sight makes things that are already difficult to trace even more confusing.
In short, if you can't find it, you can't find it.
So far, rumors about Chen Cang are flying all over the sky. They can't tell which ones are true or false, right or wrong. However, they don't dare to ignore them because they have learned from past mistakes. Therefore, they can only screen some relatively reliable ones first. information, and then assign people to check the authenticity.
It means that the Seventy-Two Water and Land Alliance has a great cause, otherwise it would really not be able to withstand such a torment.
But even so, they were tortured to the point of mental exhaustion and physical and mental exhaustion.
