After it got dark, fires and torches were lit in the surrounding settlements. Under the light of the fire, the figures of the three people appeared and disappeared in the changing light and shadow.
After walking for almost two hours, there were a lot less firelights on the roadside, and there were a lot less pedestrians. Occasionally, we could see pedestrians on their way. The sound of the three people's footsteps in the rain was particularly clear at night.
The people who were following him left at some point. The heavy and light rain made Chen Huaming lose his keen sense of the changes in the surrounding environment. Although he could not feel the prying eyes, Chen Huaming was still a little worried because he knew that Chu Xiang would not be disturbed by trivial matters. I have been rushing forward in the rain, but I still maintain the same speed and have no intention of slowing down. This only shows that the danger has not passed yet and may appear at any time.
As an experienced spy, Chen Huaming knew that in other people's territory, the other party did not need to pay attention to their eastward direction at all times. He only needed to arrange a person from a distance to take a look and he could grasp their movements.
It was late at night, and Chu Xiang's footsteps still kept moving, and his speed was slowly increasing.
Chen Huaming didn't know if possible enemies would take action at night. He couldn't guess what was about to happen because he didn't know the reason why Chu Xiang was on his way. The only thing he could guess was that there might be danger.
With her feet constantly trampling the rain, Du Cuiniang was constantly calculating the distance the three of them had traveled and the places they passed. She knew that even if danger came, she would not be able to play any role. Knowing everything around her, she might be able to help the three of them avoid it at some point. Dangerous.
Things were a bit beyond Chu Xiang's expectation. Nothing happened along the way, and the three of them left the Dai country smoothly.
Is it possible to be out of danger after leaving Dai? Chu Xiang knows that many people are paying attention to his movements in both Dai and Myanmar. Now he hastily left Dai and returned to Myanmar. Such a move It will lead to all kinds of speculations. There will definitely be many people who are secretly watching for ideas, and there will also be many people who want to benefit from him. Judging from the way he is running away now, it is definitely a good opportunity to beat up the drowned dog.
After returning to Myanmar, Chu Xiang slowed down and walked as slowly as when he came. He could not speak and could only release information through behavior, allowing the outside world to speculate on his behavior.
If interested people have been paying attention to his whereabouts, they will naturally know that he left Dai country in a hurry and remained calm as usual in Myanmar. This will definitely cause the followers to think. Why did the holy monk leave in a hurry after meeting with Luang Phor Puding of Qingman Temple? He left Dai country and Qingman Temple in a hurry. Is it possible that Qingman Temple could harm the holy monk? What happened in Qingman Temple.
Chu Xiang’s purpose was to cause followers to speculate about Qingman Temple. Puding set a trap for him and asked him to get in, so he had no choice but to go home. If there was no reward, how could he deserve to be so famous as Qingman Temple? The place.
After leaving the Dai border, the route the three of them took was completely different from when they arrived. Du Cuiniang was a living map, so finding the appropriate route was not difficult for her at all.
The spies who inquired about the situation arrived very quickly. As soon as the three of them crossed the border and passed a settlement, a lean man with an ordinary face walked towards them.
The visitor put his hands together in greeting from more than ten meters away. After approaching, he saluted Chu Xiang seriously, and then said to Chen Huaming: "Hello, Longpi, is the master the holy monk Lu Shide?"
As an old man in the world, Chen Huaming naturally knew that the person in front of him was here to inquire about the situation, so he nodded and said, "Yes."
"It turns out he is really a holy monk." The lean man said happily, and immediately got down and knelt down to Chu Xiang.
"Holy Monk, can you please speak the Dharma for our tribe?" The lean man begged piously.
Along the way, Chen Huaming was thinking about why Chu Xiang left Qingman Temple in a hurry and gave up his plan to go west. There was no doubt that something must have happened during the meeting between Chu Xiang and Pu Ding that could have caused Chu Xiang to give up his plan and return home. This situation was definitely not the case. no big deal.
Chen Huaming had already prepared a draft to deal with this situation early in the morning, and said: "Long Pi invites you, Master Lu Shide feels that his cultivation is not enough, he needs to return to his residence to continue practicing, and he will not give explanations to anyone again."
"Ah!" The lean man was a little shocked, and stood up excitedly and said: "The saint's compassion and salvation of all living beings have long been spread throughout Myanmar. He can make dead trees spring into spring and long-term illnesses heal themselves. Who said that the saint's cultivation is not enough? I Don’t believe it, I don’t believe it.”
"Long Pi, don't be excited. When Master Lu Shide's practice is complete, the holy monk will come back." Chen Huaming explained.
"When will the holy monk really not be able to explain the Dharma to us?" The lean man looked at Chu Xiang and begged piously.
From the actions of the man in front of him, it was obvious that he knew who he was. He was a holy monk who had been passed down by word of mouth. Asking him was nothing more than a prayer to let him preach the sermon and to save lives and heal the wounded. It turned out that if he wanted to act, he had to do the whole thing. Chu Xiang put his hands in front of him, holding the meditation seal, and remained unmoved.
Chen Huaming's eyes lit up when he saw Chu Xiang holding the Zen Seal. Unexpectedly, his thoughts were the same as Chu Xiang's, and Chu Xiang's actions completely matched his words.
"Long Pi, don't be depressed, we will meet again if we are destined." Chen Huaming comforted.
Although the lean man didn't want to, he had no choice but to leave.
All the way north, some people really knew and recognized the holy monk. They wanted to ask Chu Xiang to explain, and some came to test him. Chu Xiang refused all of them. He cooperated perfectly with Chen Huaming, and no one found out that Chu Xiang actually didn't understand. Burmese.
Nothing happened along the way, no one came to start a fight, no one stopped them, and the three of them arrived at the military boundary line of Myanmar very smoothly.
After entering the border military restricted area, Du Cuiniang began to take an unconventional route, leading the two of them to run around in the deep mountains and old forests, trying not to let anyone trace the traces of the three of them, lest they be followed later and find out that their holy monk was. Chinese.
Du Cuiniang is almost certain that Chu Xiang will definitely come to Myanmar again, probably as a holy monk.
In fact, Chu Xiang could completely cover up the whereabouts of the three of them and create the illusion that he existed in the forest, making it difficult for virtual realm masters to notice, but in that case he would have to use the power of the virtual realm level. Chu Xiang was not sure whether there were other virtual realm masters in this mountain forest. If there were other virtual realm masters hiding, he would definitely be discovered by the other party if he showed his power, and the gain would outweigh the losses.
The three of them were sneaking into the mountains and forests. During this period, Du Cuiniang also led the way up a hill to observe the surrounding situation from a high place. It seemed that there were no major changes in the war between the two countries. The boundaries of the confrontation between the two armies were almost the same as when they came. After setting up the missing formation, the three of them came to the front line of the two armies.
After carefully investigating the surrounding situation and roughly determining the direction of the Burmese army's defense, the three of them began to cross the Burmese army's defense line after dark.
With the experience they had gained when they arrived, and the fact that the Burmese army's defense on the back was much lax, the three of them easily passed through the Burmese army's defense line and reached the valley between the two armies.
The three of them rested in the valley until midnight. It was almost dawn and the wild animals were about to come out to look for food. Crossing the friendly defense line head-on was more difficult than imagined. After carefully drilling through the thorn bushes for more than half an hour, Du Cuiniang failed to find a loophole in the defense line. Seeing that the wild beasts were about to come out to look for food, she could only stop in the bushes.
In order to prevent wild beasts from attacking, Chen Huaming could only sprinkle chopped leaves picked in advance around to drive away snakes, rats, apes and wolves. The smell of crushed leaves is very strong, and even the fishy and stinky smell of many wild animals cannot be concealed.
"We must leave immediately." Du Cuiniang gestured when she found that the peculiar smell of the powder was too obvious and would soon spread to the smell range of the dark whistle.
Chen Huaming nodded and put a handful of crushed leaves into his pocket. If they did not bring these pieces of powder to repel snakes, insects, rats, and ants, the three of them would be attacked by active wild beasts and reptiles, and would be discovered by the surrounding secret sentries more quickly.
The three of them were walking through the beast road. Less than a minute after leaving, the smell of broken leaves left behind was detected by the secret sentry. The sentry posts in the entire forest knew that someone had sneaked into the defense line.
It was estimated that the smell had been discovered, but the surrounding whistles were still silent. Obviously, there was no chaos caused by someone sneaking in, which gave her an opportunity to exploit. Du Cuiniang could only change her previous way of traveling, no longer using the safest way, and choose Lower risk route, fast stealth.
There were secret whistles following the odor left behind, but the wild beasts in the mountains and forests were so chaotic that the whereabouts of the three of them were not discovered for a while.
No trace of the three men was found, and the garrison at the defense line did not panic. All the secret sentries stayed put and blocked all possible loopholes. Each garrison point immediately sent people to encircle them. Discovering that the infiltrator left almost no trace, the pursuing secret whistle immediately notified the masters above to come for support. Suddenly, the entire mountain forest was covered with murderous secrets, and the undercurrent was surging.
Feeling the approaching murderous intent, the beasts, snakes and insects in the forest fled in all directions. Chen Huaming threw away the leaf crumbs in his pocket and used the crumbs to lay out several misleading clues. This mountain forest full of murderous intent no longer needed to guard against wild beasts. .
Feeling the movement of the beasts around her and knowing that her general position had been exposed, Du Cuiniang walked quickly while looking for loopholes in the hidden sentry while the surrounding garrison guards had not yet closed in. There was still a chance to get out.
After observing the running situation of the wild beasts, Du Cuiniang finally found a relatively safe loophole. There happened to be a wave of wild beasts escaping. Du Cuiniang immediately lay down and followed the beasts on her hands and feet like a four-legged snake, blending into the beasts.
A very special way of walking. If it weren't for the tail, it would be exactly like a four-legged snake.
Chen Huaming knew that this method was not difficult for Chu Xiang at all. For a master of the virtual realm, it was easy to perfectly control his body. Not to mention crawling like a four-legged snake, it was no problem to squirm like a snake.
The three of them crawled among the escaping wild beasts. The wild beasts were eager to escape and did not attack the three of them. They just ran away. Probably no one could have imagined that people could crawl like this, and the three of them successfully passed the sight of a secret sentry.
