He Pheasant's voice was trembling and choked.
Her lips pursed tighter, her eyes grew redder, and tears welled up even more.
I heard the grievance in He Fei's tone clearly.
I even heard the meaning of her words...
For a moment, I was silent.
No wonder He Zhi reacted so strongly.
He Gui Po entrusted He Pheasant to me. She has been homeless for a long time.
He Zhi stopped talking, just tore off a piece of cloth from the hem of his clothes, wrapped it around my neck, and bandaged my wound.
After doing this, He Pheasant turned around and walked towards the door of the mound.
After hesitating for a moment, I said: "Wait a minute!".
He Zhi frowned, his eyes full of doubts.
I just opened my mouth and said that Mr. Bai had run away. No matter what the situation was in the two mounds outside, Liu Huayan would definitely be able to handle it. It wouldn't make much sense for us to follow them except to see what happened.
With that said, I turned around and walked to the hole that Mr. Bai had just drilled into.
The entire hole is actually not big, because Mr. Bai is thin enough to get in.
If it were me, it would be impossible, even my shoulders would not be able to get through.
I reached around and touched inside. There were fox paw prints all over the cave wall, which were clearly holes dug by the fox fairy.
I lowered my head, looked into the cave, and murmured, "Where will he escape from?"
"I don't know where his hole went..." He Zhi's demeanor was obviously a little better now.
The look in her eyes when she looked at me showed a lot of worry.
"If we can't catch up, we won't. We can't take care of everything. Mr. Bai is too powerful. You almost died. Let's go down the mountain and go back to Maojia Village. We will explain the danger clearly and leave. They will also have time to escape. Then Mr. Bai may not come back."
"You also have wounds on your shoulders... They were all scratched through..." At this point, He Fei's eyes became more worried.
I was silent for a moment, thoughts racing through my mind.
What I was thinking about was nothing else but the big black wooden box, the fixed compass, and the Eight Diagrams Tiger Head Mirror...
At this time, I suddenly discovered a detail.
The direction of this hole is vaguely toward the northeast...
Suddenly, my heart skipped a beat, and I murmured: "Rengui can be found in Gen, and Yinshensihai has returned to his hometown."
"Li Yinyang, what did you say?" He Zhi obviously didn't understand and asked in confusion.
"The cave is in the northeast. The hexagram of lost things means that my things will be taken away from the northeast and it will be difficult for me to get them back."
"Mr. Bai probably won't come back. No matter where his hole comes out, he will go down the mountain from the northeast and walk toward the northeast..." My pupils shrank into small dots and I spoke word by word.
The moment I finished speaking, I turned around and walked quickly to the door.
I leaned forward and got out, with He Zhi following closely behind me.
After leaving the mound, the night sky outside was filled with stars.
It had been raining heavily before, but now it was a bright night.
There were two other mounds, one of which I entered first, and the other one had its wooden door open to the outside. I vaguely heard crying coming from it.
That cry, isn't it Mao Lin's or who is it?
Likewise, mixed with the cries was Liu Huayan's comforting voice.
I didn't dare to pause at all. If I were to slow down a little, I'm afraid Mr. Bai would really run away...
After identifying the direction, I quickly descended the mountain in the northeast direction, almost walking with wind!
Running at this speed is still going down the mountain. If you don't pay attention, you may roll down the mountain!
It’s just that I don’t dare to slow down, I have to seize the time!
He Zhi's speed was much faster than mine. In a few seconds, she was in front of me!
But she didn't run faster, she just maintained this speed.
This mountain is not high.
We will go down the mountain faster!
When we rushed to the foot of the mountain, there was still a patch of ground cypress on the edge of the foot of the mountain.
Ground cypress is about the same height as a shrub, but much denser, and the cypress leaves at the top are even more airtight.
At this point, the view below is also much wider, and you can see that the direction this place is leaving is not Maojia Village!
From here we can vaguely see the lower reaches of the Xuanhe River and the woods beyond!
"No one has passed here yet." He Zhi whispered, she was panting slightly, and there were many beads of sweat on her forehead.
"How do you know?" I was puzzled. Originally, I was worried that Mr. Bai had already gone down the mountain. After all, we were delayed for a moment.
He Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly and pointed to the ground with one finger.
"It has been raining for so long. There are no marks at this location except our footprints. Either your calculations were wrong and he didn't go this way, or he hasn't arrived yet..." Sure enough, I was the only one on the wet ground. And He Zhi's footprints.
"It shouldn't be a mistake..." When I said this, I actually didn't have much confidence.
I have used the Bagua method to find people several times, and it is almost always accurate.
It's just the first time I've used this method of finding objects.
"You find a place to hide, and I will hide as well. If he comes, don't make the first move, don't show off, I will restrain him!" He Zhi said in a low voice.
Her eyes scanned the surroundings sharply, and at the same time, she actually took off the ghost sword from her waist and handed it to me.
There really is nothing wrong with me.
Not only was the compass gone, but also the divination knife was gone. I could only vaguely feel that there were a heavenly inkstone and an earthly pen inside the inner bag.
He Fei didn't just have the guillotine knife, she also picked up the mourning stick when she came out with me.
I didn't refuse and took the Guillotine Knife in my hand. It was heavy and the handle was full of coldness.
The next moment, He Zhi quickly walked sideways to a tree, her movements extremely careful.
I noticed that this time she was tapping her toes and leaving no footprints.
The next moment, He Zhi tapped the tree and climbed up to the crown in a few moments.
I calmed down, but there was no way I could hide my footprints.
After hesitating for a moment, I looked at the dense cypress bushes, took a deep breath, walked up to it, carefully pushed it aside and got in.
Cramped, cold, dark...
All kinds of feelings invaded me.
After it rained, a lot of rainwater accumulated in the cypress bushes. With my movement, a lot of rainwater poured down on me.
Some even flowed into the wounds on my neck and shoulders. The cold sting made me shiver.
Soon, I adjusted my position and half-crouched in the cypress bushes, ensuring that I could rush out at any time.
But from my angle, I can only see the outside through the gaps between the needles, and I can't see the pheasant at all.
Time passed bit by bit.
The process of waiting is extremely anxious and unsettling.
I don’t know how long it took, but through the gaps in the needles, a figure finally appeared on the mountain road...
There were a few wisps of wind blowing down from above. I was downwind here, and I happened to hear a faint murmur.
"If those two little bitches hadn't come, we would have finished skinning that boy Li Yinyang. We can't fight with them now. Li Yinyang's things are good treasures."
