"It's okay." Ruotao nodded slightly, and at this moment, Beast Bones Fire asked: "By the way, where is the white-scaled long-necked monster?"
Hearing this, the Demon-Binding Ghost King seemed a little embarrassed. He winked at Si-Arm Shanwei, which meant: "Hey, please explain."
"Aww, oww." Shanwei murmured and gestured, telling Ruotao and the others what happened.
"Damn long-necked monster, in the end you didn't catch it? Did you almost get hurt by the other party's self-destruction?" After hearing these words, Ruotao's mouth twitched a few times, while Shanwei and the Ghost King drooped listlessly. He held his head and waited for the eldest sister to continue scolding him for his incompetence.
But unexpectedly, Ruotao didn't scold the two of them, but said nonchalantly: "Hey, it's okay, isn't it just a broken evil beast that ran away? Don't worry, I won't scold you."
Hearing this, Shanwei and the Ghost King were so happy that they almost jumped up. At this moment, the curly-haired black ape approached Ruotao and whispered: "Sister, I don't think the long-necked monster may have died by self-destruction."
"Oh?" Hearing Hei Yuan's words, Ruotao frowned slightly and asked casually: "Why did you make such an inference?"
"If it really dies, its breath will definitely dissipate and disappear in an instant, but..."
After a pause at this point, the curly-haired black ape continued: "I found that there is still a trace of the opponent's scent nearby that has not disappeared, so I guess it may have used the impact of the self-destruction just now to attract the attention of the two ghosts. , I took the opportunity to hide and hide."
"What you said makes sense. However, the power of the self-destruction just now is not small. Maybe it was caused by burning the essence of life. Can the long-neck monster really survive?" The beast skeleton next to it said: "I express my opinion on this. Suspect."
"Hey, Boss Bonefire, you don't know something."
The curly-haired black ape explained: "Beasts like us who have lived in space tunnels for many years have more or less ways to save their lives, such as tearing open a space crack in an instant and escaping. For that white scale For a long-necked monster, it’s not impossible, don’t you think?”
"Well, it's possible." After hearing this, Beast Skeleton Fire agreed, and then asked: "Since you can detect the remaining breath of the other party, you should also be able to find its traces, right?"
"It's possible." After thinking about it carefully, the curly-haired black ape said, "But I'm the only one, so it seems to be a little difficult. I need your help."
"No problem." Ruotao agreed immediately without hesitation: "Whatever you need us to do, just ask."
"Reiki, I need a lot of spiritual energy."
The curly-haired black ape said with gestures at this moment: "I can use the absorption of spiritual energy to expand the range of my breath detection in a short period of time. The widest range can be extended to several miles away, but the speed must be faster, because of my special ability Can’t hold on for long.”
"Okay, I believe you once." Ruotao immediately reached out and patted the curly-haired black ape on the shoulder, and suddenly injected a strong spiritual energy into the other person's body, and asked casually: "How about it, is this spiritual energy enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough. Sister's aura is really abundant. This aura is enough for me to use the method of detecting aura. Please wait a moment."
"Hey!" As he spoke, the curly-haired black ape had already swung to the top of a huge rock nearby. It sat down cross-legged, then closed its eyes slightly and remained silent.
But Ruotao and Beast Skeleton Fire were both vaguely aware that at this moment, the black ape's body surface was releasing circles of spiritual energy ripples, spreading to the surroundings.
"Hey, it seems that Black Ape is really not bragging. Its ability to release spiritual energy and find the smell of missing objects seems to be quite rare."
"Um."
Hearing Ruotao's words, Beast Bones Fire agreed, and then laughed softly: "Now that I think about it, sparing this guy a small life just now seems to be a very right choice. If he is willing to change his ways in the future, let this guy If you stay with me, its abilities should be able to help the spiritual beasts in the valley a lot."
Just as Ruotao and Guhuo were chatting for a while, they suddenly heard the curly-haired black ape sitting on the rock scream: "You two, I found the trace of that guy."
"What?"
"Hey, it's pretty fast." Ruotao raised his head and asked, "Where is it?"
"Keep chasing from here to the west, and you should be able to see the opponent." The curly-haired black ape said: "But if you want to chase this guy, you'd better hurry up. It's not moving slowly now."
"Okay, let's chase him quickly." After Ruotao said that, he immediately waved to the surrounding demon brothers, Shanwei, and the ghost king. In this way, everyone hurried forward and chased.
…
After a while, Ruotao, Guhuo and the others came to a fork in the road. She turned around and asked, "Black Ape, which way do you think we should chase?"
"Wait a minute, let me check it out." The moment he finished speaking, the curly-haired black ape suddenly walked into the middle of the intersection and sniffed the surrounding smell with his nose. After a few breaths, the black ape pointed to the left fork in the road and whispered: "It's right here, you can't go wrong."
"Let's go!" As soon as Ruotao said these words, Shanwei, Ghost King and Beast Skeleton Huo, along with them, hurried towards the left fork in the road, with the curly-haired black ape in hot pursuit.
"Ouch, ow!" Just after everyone ran a hundred feet away, the sharp-eyed Shanwei suddenly pointed ahead and roared. Ruotao and the others took a closer look and saw that there were two dead bodies lying in the corner by the road.
The beast skeleton fire stepped forward to inspect and said: "These are giant insects that live in the ancient cave. They are usually very ferocious and brutal. They will launch a deadly attack on those who invade their territory. It seems that they encountered the white-scaled long-necked monster and were killed. The other party counterattacked."
"Then the long-necked monster escaped from here." Looking at the blood stains left on the ground, Ruotao said, "It hasn't completely solidified yet. It must have just left not long ago. Let's continue chasing..."
"Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss..."
It was too late, but it was soon. Just when everyone was about to leave, bursts of rapid insect chirping suddenly sounded nearby. Immediately afterwards, swift shadows rushed through. In an instant, hundreds of giant ancient cave insects emerged from nearby gaps and caves. Climbing out, he quickly blocked Ruotao and the others' path.
"Uh, what do these guys want to do?" Ruotao frowned slightly.
At this moment, the beast skeleton fire said: "Looking at their posture, it seems that they regard us as the murderers of the two giant insects on the ground. The ancient cave giant insects have always been very protective of their shortcomings. If anyone hurts their companions, these guys They will take crazy revenge, even if they all die, they will have no scruples."
"Huh, what a bunch of crazy bugs." Seeing the other party hissing arrogantly towards him, the curly-haired black ape was a little annoyed. He suddenly leaned over and picked up a stone and threw it at the giant bug: "Go to hell!"
