After digging the crow's nest, he still doesn't return.
Compared with Wuchao, which was lightly buried by the loess, Hao Bugui was buried very deeply.
Moreover, there was no trace of loose soil anywhere where Gu Bugui was.
"Senior brother, is Chu Gui really down here?"
Zhang Xuezhou took the long sword that came with Wuchao and dug half an inch. He didn't even see the sleeves of Cuo Bugui. It was difficult for him to believe where Cuo Bugui was hiding.
"It's really down here. If you don't believe it, just poke it with your sword. You will definitely get blood now," Wu Chao affirmed.
"Then let me try!"
"Stop poking. He was so frightened that he dug down again. It will be even more troublesome to dig!"
"Did he hear us?"
Zhang Xuezhou raised his aching arm and made two gestures with his long sword. He was just about to try to see if he could draw blood, but he couldn't help but sigh again when he heard Wu Chao's words.
Compared with before, he obviously has to dig deeper now.
"You can still hear it, but it's not that clear," Wu Chao said, "As long as we speak softer, he won't be able to hear us!"
"How did he get in?"
"I heard that there is a method called earth escape here in Nanfangbuzhou. He probably used this method to sneak into the ground!"
Wuchao thought for a few seconds before pointing out the source of the secret method of Cui Bugui.
"This method is really good for escaping," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"He didn't practice the earth escape skill well enough, so he fell into the method of escaping now. The earth escape skill is so powerful that it can enter the earth immediately. Traveling underground is like walking, and the assassination that emerges from the ground in an instant is hard to guard against," Wu Chao introduced: "If he has that kind of ability, we will have to be wary of him."
"Then we have to catch him and see if he can learn this technique." Zhang Xuezhou said, "Senior brother is very talented and can learn quickly. Maybe he can use it in the future."
"It's okay if we learn...!"
Wuchao was about to mention that practicing "Heart Mantra" would focus more on the spells and it would be difficult to specialize in other sects' spells. However, he thought that using the earth escape technique did not require him to practice to the point of proficiency, so he immediately agreed. .
Even if the Earth Escape Technique was only half as good as a bucket of water, Hao Bugui's ability to dodge had brought them huge trouble.
In Wuchao's perception, Gu Bugui continued to move downward bit by bit.
If Zhang Xuezhou digs slower, the other party will inevitably be farther and farther away from them.
Wu Chao thought for a few seconds, ignoring the pain of the Snake Head Curse being nearly broken, and then joined the digging team.
But half a quarter of an hour later, Wu Chao couldn't help but feel a headache.
The faster they dug, the faster Hao Bugui burrowed underground, and the distance between them even continued to grow.
According to the way they dig, even if they dig out all the fingernails on both hands, they won't be able to find a clue that won't come back.
Zhang Xuezhou, who was on one side, had already started poking randomly with his long sword.
"You old man, I don't believe you can hide underground for the rest of your life," Wu Chao groaned.
"That's right." Zhang Xuezhou came back to his senses and said, "He needs to eat and drink after all, so he can't hide in the soil forever."
Throwing aside the long sword used for digging, Zhang Xuezhou also sat down and waited.
If Cuo Bugui's earth escape technique is powerful and he can shuttle freely, they have to be careful of three points, but it seems that Cuo Bugui's earth escape technique can only dive.
With the help of Wuchao's perception, Xu Bugui's body continued to sink and did not move.
This made the two of them lose their initial enthusiasm.
Usually after being hungry for a while, Cuo Bugui will take the initiative to come out.
Zhang Xuezhou found a few pieces of wood from the carriage, and used his sword to cut up a few kilograms of dead horse meat.
He set up a bonfire and hung the horse meat on it.
"Don't look at me, senior brother, he doesn't know how to use fire!"
"Well!"
I have always relied on others to survive in the wild, but Zhang Xuezhou still works according to the old rules.
He looked at the embarrassed Wuchao and thought about his own more limited means, so he had no choice but to throw aside the firewood that started the fire.
The time lasted until now, and it was a competition between them to see who was thirsty and hungry first.
Zhang Xuezhou and Wu Chao looked at each other.
The two even saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
They need to be caught and punished, and they also need to get out of this mountainous area and even return to the Holy Land.
This long journey involves a lot of time and procedures.
Both of them were physically injured and were not in good health.
But it's impossible to give away the obtained Gu Bugui.
After the competition between Kong Ning's team and Prince Edward's team, this may be their only chance to capture Gu Bugui.
"Come out, Taoist Master. As long as you can hand over the follow-up practice part of "Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Mantra" to me, we can walk half way toward the sky from now on!"
It was difficult to unearth Chou Bugui, so Zhang Xuezhou could only talk to him while waiting to see if it was possible to persuade Chou Bugui to surrender.
"He didn't move!"
Whenever Zhang Xuezhou finished speaking a paragraph loudly, he would look at Wuchao.
But Wuchao's answer made Zhang Xuezhou a little disappointed.
He even had some doubts about whether there was such a person as Gu Bugui under the loess pile.
The sunlight was dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye. Zhang Xuezhou looked at the sky and then at Wuchao.
"Are you going to sleep again?" Wuchao asked in a low voice.
"I can't stop this sleepiness!"
Zhang Xuezhou nodded.
He will inevitably return when the time is up, and he can only rely on Wu Chao.
This not only involves arresting Gu Bugui, but also taking care of Zhang Xuezhou.
Looking at Wu Chao with only one normal hair left, Zhang Xuezhou wondered whether Wu Chao could handle the matter.
The two of them were even injured and had not eaten lunch or dinner, so their remaining physical energy was extremely limited.
The officers and soldiers will inevitably go into the mountain to collect the corpses. This time may be tomorrow, or it may be tonight.
Many situations made it difficult for the two to face them.
"give it to me!"
Zhang Xuezhou fell asleep, and Wu Chao had to take on the responsibility of keeping vigil.
He grabbed the long sword of the Imperial Guard, held the long sword against the loess, carved a human-shaped circle, and then nailed the sword to the center.
"If you don't have great skills in earth escape and can only go in and out, this sword will pierce your sternum when you come out!"
Zhang Xuezhou's good words failed to persuade him to surrender, so he could only use harsh words and even began to threaten him.
The cold wind at night blew, and Wu Chao covered his mouth and coughed twice.
He looked at Zhang Xuezhou, who was lying down with his eyes closed, and he hated Hong Ku more and more in his mind.
Without Hong Ku, a life-threatening teacher, he would never have fallen into the current situation.
He was just a little short today.
If he hadn't hidden a hair in Zhang Xuezhou's body, and Zhang Xuezhou happened to be near his casting range, the aftermath of the flames struck by His Majesty would definitely have killed him.
"Only you!"
Apart from this hair, Wuchao only left one snake-head cursed hair with Hongku.
And the hair hidden there by Hongku is difficult to find.
After practicing hard for several years, Wuchao's abilities were completely destroyed, leaving only the ability to strike with one blow.
He stared at the hair in his hand for a long time and coughed several times.
After spitting out a mouthful of hard-earned blood, Wu Chao slowly soaked his hair in it.
The sound of frogs croaking in the distance undoubtedly added to his sadness.
When facing Hongku, he only had one chance to strike.
After one blow, there will be another life or a suffering life.
Apart from that, he had no other choice.
