Hearing Guan Heng's inquiry, Demon Mandrill said in a deep voice: "And these guys all died in the same way. Their necks and throats were torn out by some kind of beast, or their bodies were torn apart by brute force. The opponent's attacks were quite violent and brutal. .”
"I discovered one more thing." King Jiaxiu came closer at this time and said: "There is some evil energy left on the surface of the wound of the dead beast."
"Oh." After hearing this, the sisters Qinghuang and Qianxin looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Is it the evil beast that did it?"
"It's not just an evil beast." Guan Heng touched his chin and said slowly: "To be precise, it's an evil fire-hunting beast!"
"What?" After hearing this, Ruotao whispered in astonishment: "The fire-hunting beasts killed the fire-hunting beasts. Could it be that there was internal strife between them?"
"It's not necessarily the same group of fire-hunting beasts. Maybe outsiders attacked and killed the fire-hunting beasts here for some reason."
Thinking of this, Guan Heng suddenly turned his head and said: "Mother of insects, we should have another beast's nest that we haven't explored yet. You should quickly send Zixie over to have a look. I have a feeling that maybe the beasts there have also been poisoned. .”
"Yes, Master." After hearing this, the evil goose mother agreed: "I will immediately send Brother Ziji over to confirm."
"Demon Mandrill, you, the old monkey, and the big-headed monkey are searching in the cave to see if you can find the Yuhuo Yanjing."
"Yes, Mr. Guan." Demon Mandrill nodded, and then he led the old monkey and other companions towards the cave.
Guan Heng glanced around at this time, and then murmured to himself: "If what I expected is correct, the Demon Mandrills should not have gained much. The reason why the other party attacked and killed the fire-hunting beasts was probably for the sake of the fire-hunting beasts." It’s from Yan Jing.”
"So the other party is a robber and fire-hunting beast that robbed Yan Jing?" Qing Huang thought of such a word at this time and said it casually.
"Well, that's right." Guan Heng said, "What those guys did was banditry!"
"Moreover, the methods of these guys are extremely cruel. They kill at lightning speed and then steal all the Yan Jing without leaving any traces or clues."
Guan Heng looked at the surrounding ground at this time and continued: "I think their action to snatch the Meteor Fire Flame Essence may have been a temporary decision after we appeared."
"Then according to what you said, the other party should know our existence?" Qian Xin asked casually: "Is there such a smart evil fire-hunting beast?"
"There should be." At this time, Guan Heng began to analyze the matter for everyone.
He said casually: "After all, the other party has lived in this area for many years, and is extremely familiar with every corner and fork in the road here. Sometimes he takes a detour and hides in a hidden area to observe us passing somewhere. possible."
"Well, from your analysis, these special fire-hunting beasts are indeed very cunning." Qinghuang nodded in agreement.
At this time, the Demon Mandrill hurried over with King Jiaxiu and other companions. It raised its voice and said: "There are traces of digging in every corner of the cave. I checked and found that there is the aura left by the Fire Flame Spirit in the soil." , but not even a bit of dregs was left, it was all dug away.”
"Humph, they were all taken away as expected. These beasts have such a good appetite." Guan Heng sneered slightly, feeling a little puzzled, so he asked: "Master Guan, what's going on?"
"Oh, that's it..."
At this time, Guan Heng explained what he had analyzed in a concise and concise manner. The demon mandrill, King Jiaxiu and other beasts suddenly turned red with anger, and everyone shouted: "The beast hunting fire beast that kills a thousand swords dares to steal It’s our fault, we must kill these guys!”
"Yeah, that's true."
Guan Hengyan said: "Now let's wait for the insect mother first. If the situation they find there is the same as here, it proves that the other party has indeed followed my speculation and started to attack the weaker fire-hunting beasts, and all of them Taking away the opponent’s stored Fire Fire Essence.”
"However, I don't really hate these guys." When he said this, Guan Heng said casually with a slight smile on his lips: "Because the other party saved us a lot of trouble."
"Oh?" After hearing this, An Yan blinked and asked, "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
"Haha, of course it's because those idiots who attacked and killed the same kind of people helped us gather all the Fire Flame Spirits together."
Guan Heng said with a smile: "What we have to do now is to find each other, collect the things, and kill them at the same time. How about it? It's easy, right?"
"Well, from what you said, it seems like that's true." An Yan said with a smile: "Then when we encounter these little thieves later, can you let me, sister, take action first?"
"Okay, it's all a trivial matter, no problem." When Guan Henggang said this, the three insects had already fluttered their wings and flew back in a hurry. The evil goose mother shouted: "Master, another beast The nest has been slaughtered by a mysterious enemy, I think the opponent should be..."
"Is it another group of fire-hunting beasts?" Guan Heng interrupted it and said. "It's true." The insect mother said with some surprise: "Master is really clever and has already guessed it."
"It's not that I can calculate, but because the same situation happened here." After a pause, Guan Heng asked again: "After finding out the situation over there, did you send Zifu out to investigate the situation there? What’s the situation around you?”
"Yes." After hearing this, the evil worm mother immediately said: "I have sent out about hundreds of worm brothers to disperse and investigate."
"How long have they been out scouting?"
"About half a moment." The evil goose mother answered Guan Heng's question and continued: "It won't be long before they will reply with useful messages."
"Well, that's good." After hearing this, Guan Heng nodded.
Then he continued: "The other party's purpose is simple and their actions are fast. Their biggest worry is that they will run into us. If that happens, it will be their death. Therefore, they will be a little hasty and have a lot of trouble when retreating. There is a chance of leaving clues.”
"It's true." Guhuang roared beside him and said: "Master Guan, we previously found several forks around the entrance of the last fire-hunting beast's nest, and they have been listed as key areas for the Zifus to investigate. .”
"Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz" while everyone was chatting, a few colorful ferocious crickets suddenly fluttered their wings and scurried over, squeaking and chirping at Guan Heng.
"Come here, I just have something to ask you." Guan Heng stretched out his arm, and Zizi suddenly landed on his arm, and then lightly touched Guan Heng's fingertips with his tentacles.
"I understand, you probably found a useful clue and now you want a reward, right? No problem."
As he said that, Guan Heng took out a piece of dried meat and handed it over, and several clams gathered around him. They were eating more regularly now. They didn't gobble it up like before. Instead, each one took a bite and then chewed it carefully. Swallow slowly.
