On the evening of the 25th, two people and one donkey patrolled the wilderness of Huanye as usual.
The donkey spread its hooves and ran softly and silently. It was no longer suspicious. It was still more than ten feet behind. In its shameless words, it was worthy of being the finale of a big task!
After patrolling for three times, the two of them landed on a low barren mountain in the south to rest.
Compared with other tasks, patrolling is an easy job. There is no one to supervise it. It is easy to pass the time if you are lazy. The two of them are not pedantic people. Since Master Gao and Master Mo seem to be interested in taking care of them, they are naturally happy to have some leisure time. .
Killing the ghost to obtain the soul stone, which is more important than safety and freedom, the two of them can still carry it clearly.
What's more, rewards will be given out for successfully completing tasks.
At first, Zhang Wenfeng thought it was Yun Qiuhe's sect that greeted the two adults. Later, as he got acquainted with Zhubi City, he realized that it was Master Gao Yi of Weiyun Temple who had deliberately arranged it.
He guessed that he had something to do with Cen Sanlin. He hadn't met the swordsman who fell into self-doubt for several days, and he couldn't ask about it.
After eating some dry food and drinking a few sips of water, Yun Qiuhe arranged a simple protective water array with array flags around the two of them. They each meditated and adjusted their breaths. The donkey drank water and ate grass in the stream at the foot of the mountain, and also helped them keep watch. Lookout.
The sky was dim, the wilderness was dark, and from time to time the roars of ghosts and beasts could be heard faintly from a distance.
The night breeze was cool, and the well-fed donkey stood under the tree halfway up the mountain, motionless like a black statue.
I don't know how much time passed, but the donkey's ears suddenly twitched. It turned its head and listened for a moment. Without hesitation, it jumped to the top of the short hill, stepping on the weeds and shrubs, making only a little noise, and moving as fast as the wind.
He ran to the two meditating people and touched the invisible water formation with his hoof.
The water formation rippled and revealed signs. Yun Qiuhe suddenly opened his eyes and saw a donkey outside the formation pointing to the southwest with its forelegs and hooves. Knowing that there was something going on, she stood up gently. She didn't want to alarm Zhang Guanzhu, so she wanted to see first. whats the matter.
Zhang Wenfeng opened his eyes and stood up. It was impossible to immerse himself in cultivation in the wilderness. He woke up at the slightest movement.
After walking out of the water formation, I heard a slight sound of weapons clashing, still some distance away.
There was a lot of fighting, and there were weird scoldings and curses.
"It's a monster!"
Yun Qiuhe said as a message, she looked at Guanzhu Zhang.
Zhang Wenfeng pressed his hands.
The donkey understood and quickly found a place to hide at the foot of the mountain. Yun Qiuhe quickly collected a few formation flags, and he and Zhang Guanzhu hid behind the rocks under the trees, holding their breath and concentrating.
The situation is a little weird. The two of them won't show up easily. Let's observe it first.
The Huanye Wasteland is next to the Broken Moon Demon Forest and belongs to the territory of the Da'an Dynasty. As a buffer area between the human race and the demon clan, it is rarely inhabited. Occasionally there are hunters hunting. Monsters from the demon clan often enter the wasteland. As long as they do not cause chaos, Come, the monks patrolling the border of Da'an saw most of them and expelled them.
Even if there is a conflict between a monk and a demon cultivator, most of them will not bring it to the table if they fight to win or lose in private.
Zhang Wenfeng hid among the branches, about seven or eight feet away from Yun Qiuhe, holding back his breath and looking toward the southwest through the gaps in the leaves.
Clinging to the branches with his palms, feeling the vitality of the trees, a strange idea suddenly came to his mind. Can he convert his wood energy into a similar grass and tree breath to achieve the best hiding effect in the woods?
Because no matter how much he restrains himself, there will still be some aura fluctuations, just a little bit.
It is possible to hide from the same level of detection within a certain distance, but it is hard to tell when it is close.
He slowly transformed Yuan Qi into Wood Qi. The Qi was a little unstable and the fluctuation range was slightly larger.
Yun Qiuhe, who was not far away, noticed it and turned his head to look over.
Zhang Wenfeng made a gesture to ignore it, and adjusted the wood energy to wrap it evenly around his body, leaving no gaps. He released his spiritual consciousness to explore from outside, and he could still find flaws. His wood energy had a faint monk's vitality, and It’s just the breath of life.
Valley ytterbium
He couldn't achieve the perfect disguise and concealment effect he had in mind.
He quickly thought of a way to slowly absorb the essence and vitality of the trees with his palms clinging to the branches, dispersing it into pure wood energy, which was mixed with his own wood energy to cover up some of the popularity.
As the concentration of the wood energy he absorbed increased, he successfully disguised himself as part of the tree, at least the flaws in his aura were almost covered.
As expected, there is knowledge in paying attention to everything. This method of concealment has great potential, and he can still think more about it.
His mind was outside at the moment, and he didn't realize that the dark green Dharma disc in his arms was exposed to the essence of the trees, and there were traces of inconspicuous green brilliance, as if invisible, spreading out in circles, If there is something but if there is nothing.
There were many people fighting on both sides, and gradually blurry black shadows could be seen.
Yun Qiuhe sent a message: "Four wolf monsters are chasing two fox monsters. I don't know why. Are they fighting among themselves?"
Zhang Wenfeng could clearly see that one of the women was the fox demon named Xin Yue. She was protecting a huge fox that showed its original shape. She let out an angry fox scream, held spikes in her hands, and controlled a stream of silver light to fight fiercely.
He was indifferent, imagining himself as a tree, even the expression on his face seemed dull, and said through the message: "Just wait and see what happens, we will not interfere in the demon clan's business."
"It's okay to take action later when you see a bargain, but you can't leave anyone alive to avoid trouble."
Yun Qiuhe chuckled and suggested via voice message.
She also recognized the besieged woman. When Xin Yue secretly attacked and injured the witch cultivator in Xihezhou Town, she would not forgive him. The fox demon was doing it for his own benefit and wanted to use it as a blackmail to negotiate a deal with Zhang Guanzhu.
For non-human monsters, when they are in trouble, she doesn't mind adding insult to injury.
It's just that it's very difficult to keep the other four wolf monsters.
It would be best if two fox demons and four wolf demons fight against each other, and both sides will suffer losses, so that she can take advantage of the situation and make a profit.
Just when he was thinking about good things, a donkey brayed suddenly from below, and then he saw the donkey leaping out of the woods on the mountain col as if his butt was on fire, and several rays of silver lightning struck hard into the darkness of the mountain col.
"There are ghosts. There are many ghosts emerging from the ground! Be careful, viewer!"
The donkey yelled a warning. It was almost surrounded by a group of ghosts just now, and it also found three second-level ghosts.
It doesn't care about being exposed. According to the viewer, it's more important to save your life and rush out first.
It was unclear what the sudden appearance of the ghost had to do with the monsters fighting in the air. It spread its hooves and fled to the north. It would stay away from this place first and then circle back later.
The master taught it to be good at strategic retreat and preserve its strength.
Such a turn of events surprised the two people hiding on the top of the mountain.
The ghosts in the forest at the foot of the mountain didn't chase down a donkey that knew how to use thunder. They still couldn't get out. Maybe they were caught off guard?
The two warring parties, who were only two or three miles away from here, seemed to be surprised. They stopped for a moment. Even though they could not understand the donkey's words, they discovered from the air that there was an ambush at the place where the lightning struck.
Xin Yue, with disheveled hair and bloodstains all over her body, suddenly shouted in human language: "Guanzhu Zhang, I know you are nearby. The three-tailed demon fox tribe has defected to the Da'an Dynasty. Please show up and lend a helping hand!"
She recognized the strange black donkey without any demonic aura.
That time in Xihezhou Town, she was hiding in the dark and saw the donkey perform an exquisite turning lightning technique, so she was deeply impressed.
In times of crisis like this, even if there is a straw, she will firmly grasp it, and will not care about irrelevant issues such as whether the opponent has advanced to the lower realm, whether he will be in danger or not.
In fact, given her ability, it would be difficult to catch the four wolf demons if she were to escape alone.
But she was hampered by her unwillingness to abandon her companions.
