"Brother Yi Bo, what do you think, everyone?" Zhou Yang said to Huo Zhun, Meng Dong and others.
"No problem, just do as Taoist Fellow Bohai says."
"Okay, then we will form a team based on sects. We must be careful about sneaking. If we encounter any situation, we will get closer immediately!" Zhou Yang said decisively.
"Yes, Captain!" Cui Kai and Meng Dong were the first to respond, and the cultivators from Dingbei sects also nodded in agreement.
The butcher snorted coldly, but said nothing.
"Okay, it's settled, let's go!" Bo Hai waved his hand and led everyone to disperse.
"Meng Dong, you guys, take a look at this." After several people from Zhou Tianzong gathered together, Zhou Yang took out a Luoxuezi.
"Is this Luo Xuezi?" Meng Dong took it and looked at it for a moment before saying.
"Do you know this thing?"
"As far as I know, Luoxuezi is somewhat useful for people with fire attributes, but it's not very effective. It's just useless."
"This thing is of some use to me. If you encounter it, you can try your best to collect it." Zhou Yang said.
"No problem." Everyone responded in unison, and even the butcher bowed his head and said in peace.
He also knew very well at this time that he could not stand alone in this dangerous place. Even if Zhou Yang still stayed in the realm of Lingtai, he did not dare to underestimate him, and compared with Zhou Yang's prestige here, he was nothing.
"Everyone, be careful and let's go!" Zhou Yang gave an order, and the nine people from Zhou Tianzong dispersed and disappeared into the red forest in a short time.
Perhaps the battle just now frightened away the nearby monsters, or maybe the beasts were hiding deeper. After entering the red forest for more than thirty miles, everyone had hardly seen a few flame beasts, but the harvest was still quite big. .
Mature Fiery Flame Grass is hard to find, but this place is hundreds of miles in circumference, and the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators is not weak, so everyone has more or less made a profit.
In addition to their respective harvests, the nine members of Zhou Tianzong received a total of sixty-five mature Luoxuezi, as well as many Luoxue trees, all of which were handed over to Zhou Yang.
The butcher also held his nose and handed over five coins, but he kept wondering, why did the boy named Zhou want this thing?
Although his physique is on the fire side, this item has little effect even on fire physiques, let alone him.
Could it be that Luo Xuezi has other wonderful uses? If this is the case, then if you find this thing again, you will have to keep some of it.
"Captain, are you using it like this? Are you kidding me?"
While the butcher was thinking about it, Zhou Yang took out all the flame grass he had picked and gave three to each person. Naturally, the butcher also had a share.
However, everyone refused to give up. Once Luo Xuezi was useless to them, it was just a matter of passing by. Secondly, Zhou Yang treated them well and his prestige was there, so asking for compensation for doing small things seemed too outrageous.
"If you don't want them, then I won't bother you anymore. You can take these Luoxuezi back too!" Zhou Yang said sternly.
Although he is from the same sect, he must not let others serve him in vain, and besides, most people have higher cultivation than him. In the sect, he could give orders, but when he got here, those things no longer worked. There would be no good results if he acted recklessly here.
Besides, there is no free lunch in the world. No matter how small something is, it is still a favor. If you have a favor, you have to pay it back. He doesn't want to owe a favor.
"This..." Everyone glanced at Meng Dong and Cui Kai.
"Take it. If you don't accept it, the captain is afraid that we won't work for him, haha." Cui Kai said with a smile.
"Okay then." Everyone then put away the flame grass.
"Captain, are you still leaving?" Meng Dong asked.
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Yang tried to send a message to Bo Hai. It was pretty good. Bo Hai was not too far away, just three to four hundred feet ahead.
The sound transmission at this distance is only one-third of Zhou Yang's in the outside world, but it is far beyond the diffusion distance of his consciousness here.
From this point of view, the distance of sound transmission in the secret realm is greater than the distance of spiritual consciousness detection.
Although the red forest here is not too high, it is getting denser and thicker. Even people nearby cannot see clearly as far as the eye can see.
"Brother Bohai, how is the situation there?"
"The silence is a bit strange. We are discussing countermeasures." Bo Hai said in a message.
"Oh, why don't we get together again?"
"Come here."
"good."
Zhou Yang contacted Huo Zhun again, but unfortunately failed, so he led Meng Dong and other eight people to the direction of Bohai.
"Brother Bo, have you come to the conclusion of the discussion?" The distance of a few hundred feet was not far, and the two groups of people quickly converged.
"I have sent two people to explore ten miles forward. They haven't come back yet. Please wait a moment." Bo Hai said.
"Oh. Brother Bo, now we have gone deep into the red forest for about eighty miles, and are forty miles away from the battle. However, within these forty miles, we have only found a few sporadic monsters. The situation is a bit... That’s not normal!” Zhou Yang frowned.
"Yes, we are discussing this matter as well, and decided to send people to explore ten miles ahead before deciding on the itinerary."
"Then I'll help you all."
"It doesn't matter."
"Captain Zhou, where are you?" Huo Zhun's voice came to Zhou Yang's ears. "Forty miles ahead of the battle, I have joined Brother Bo." Zhou Yang replied.
"Okay, I'll go there immediately."
"It's Huo Zhun, he's already here." Zhou Yang said.
"oh."
After a stick of incense.
"Senior Brother, Junior Brother Ling and the others should be back by now," said a person behind Bo Hai.
"hold on."
After another incense.
"Senior brother!" The man was a little anxious.
"Brother Bo, is something wrong?" The face of the Tu family member also looked a little ugly, because there was also a member of the Tu family who went to investigate.
Bo Hai did not say anything, but looked back at Zhou Yang and Huo Zhun who had arrived. The Tu family member also looked at the two of them.
Zhou Yang and Huo Zhun looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
The total number of cultivators from the three sects of Dingbei is only about twenty, which is more than double the number of cultivators who follow the spirit. If two more people are sent to investigate, the number will be even smaller. They can't help but hesitate.
The two people from Suiling City have not returned, so the possibility of something happening is extremely high. Sending someone over at this time would be the same as sending someone to their deaths.
"Captain, let me go take a look!" Cui Kai stepped forward.
Others remained silent, he couldn't let Zhou Yang go and investigate in person.
"Senior brother, count me in." Someone stood up behind Huo Zhun.
"This... okay." Zhou Yang had no choice but to agree.
He then asked: "Thank you very much, you two! But you two don't have to stick to ten miles. You must sneak carefully after two or three miles. If there is danger, return immediately. Don't act rashly."
"Understood." Cui Kai and the other two responded in unison, while Bo Hai frowned.
Zhou Yang was aware of his dissatisfaction and knew the reason, but he ignored it.
Knowing that there is danger ahead, a fool would follow the rules. The reason why they were told to sneak carefully after three or four miles was because the maximum distance of Zhou Yang's sound transmission was four to five hundred feet, which was about three miles.
"Brother Bo Hai, if we keep waiting like this, there won't be any results." Zhou Yang said again.
"how do I say this?"
"It's easy to say that there's nothing going on ahead. If there is something going on, sending people out in groups like this is the same as committing suicide."
"Well, what's your opinion, Brother Zhou?" Bo Hai nodded and asked again.
"Since the possibility of something happening is extremely high, they won't be able to find out anything, and their lives will be involved. You see, this is a good idea. The two of us will also go to investigate for convenience."
"Oh, Brother Zhou, please explain in detail."
"The two of us can keep a distance of two or three miles from Cui Kai and the others, and the others will keep the same distance behind you and me. If there is any abnormal movement ahead, Cui Kai will send a message to me, and the two of us will either go to investigate in person, or make a judgment Then notify the personnel at the rear.
If nothing happens, we will continue to move forward. If something happens, we can make a prompt decision without the whole army being wiped out. In this way, it not only saves time traveling back and forth, but also does not delay important events. What do you think? "
Zhou Yang also had an idea and came up with such an idea.
Bo Hai pondered for a moment, then turned around and asked, "What do you think?"
"Although this method is a bit aggressive and bold, it is still feasible." The Tu family disciple nodded.
"It's okay to be careful." The leader of the He family also agreed.
"Agree." A member of the Xiyao family also had no objection, but the cultivators from other families obviously had low status, and these four were the main ones.
"Okay, just follow what Brother Zhou said." Bo Hai nodded.
"Captain, I'm 450 feet in front of you. I haven't found anything unusual yet, nor have I found Fellow Daoist Ling or the others." Cui Kai's message came to Zhou Yang's ears.
"Be careful." Zhou Yang replied.
"clear."
"Brother Bo, let's go."
"Let's go." Bohai took the lead and stepped forward, followed closely by Zhou Yang.
The remaining dozens of people dispersed, led by the leaders of each faction, following from a distance, and searching for treasures from time to time.
"Captain, there is nothing unusual, but we found the mark they left."
"Captain, there is nothing abnormal and there are marks."
News from Cui Kai came from time to time.
"It seems that Junior Brother Ling and the others are out of the ten-mile range." Bo Hai said.
"That should be the case." Zhou Yang nodded.
It wasn't long before they also discovered the markings.
"Meng Dong, how are the rear wings?" Zhou Yang sent a message to Meng Dong and Huo Zhun who were scattered in the rear, asking about the situation. The news he received was that there was nothing abnormal about the rear wings.
"Captain, there is nothing wrong." Cui Kai and the two had already traveled fifteen miles.
"Where did Junior Brother Ling and the others go?" Bo Hai frowned.
From the time they first arrived in Chilin to now, everyone has gone nearly a hundred miles deep, but neither the monsters nor the two people who went to investigate were seen.
"Captain, there are traces of a fight here, and the blood on the ground belongs to the Flame Beast." At mile 18, Cui Kai finally discovered something unusual.
"Stop first and wait there." Zhou Yang felt anxious and responded hurriedly, and he and Bo Hai walked forward quickly.
This patch of red bushes had fallen a lot and looked very messy. There were not a lot of bloodstains on the ground. There was probably only one monster, and there were no more bloodstains nearby.
Perhaps after the two killed the flame beast, they put it into the storage bag. This was the conclusion Zhou Yang came to after careful investigation.
Cui Kai and the others continued to move forward, and soon news came. After Zhou Yang and others checked, they came to the conclusion that two level four monsters were killed.
Although the above situation could not explain anything, he and Bo Hai felt that something was wrong.
