It turned out that the Rijia hunters had gone quite far that day, and they were suddenly attacked by eagle owls at one point along the way. Fortunately, a few hounds were so brave that they easily drove away the eagle owls.
Jia Lihu often went out hunting, so it was not unusual for him to encounter ferocious beasts and ferocious birds. Naturally, he didn't take it to heart. When he saw that these eagle owls did not come to provoke him again, he was ready to continue on his way back.
But since the incident ended, Jia Lihu often felt a vague threat following him on his way home, which made several hounds pay attention. Later, he finally got the chance to find the thief who followed him, and he was also prepared. He captured him and questioned him, but he didn't expect that this man was very cunning. He hid in the dense forest and disappeared. Jia Lihu had no choice but to give up and leave.
But then the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong. He always felt that the smell on this person was somewhat the same as that of the eagle owl. Moreover, their attack came out of nowhere. After careful inquiry, they realized that they had mistakenly entered the territory of the Eagle Owl Tribe, and they suddenly realized it.
Later, I heard that many eagle owls were scattered among the eagle owl tribe. Jia Lihu was also a little ashamed, so he took advantage of the night to look for the "hate the fox" cry, saying that these eagle owls had arrived at the people who were following him. Where he disappeared, I hope he can return again and take these eagle owls away.
Unexpectedly, these hounds later mistook Xiao Xu for an eagle owl, so the latter was trapped here, and a misunderstanding was caused by a combination of circumstances.
"Hahaha..." After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Huang You burst out laughing. Although Jin Tiaojiang was not that exaggerated, he could not help laughing.
On the contrary, Jia Orion and Xiao Xu stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. For a moment, they didn't know how to express themselves. They could only smile awkwardly at each other, and eventually their suspicions disappeared.
Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere had returned to harmony, those eagle owls that were pretending to be dead gradually gained energy and flew to the branches of the trees with a huff and a cry, shouting "hate...huff...hate..." incessantly, but because This scream was too penetrating, but Xiao Xu stopped him in time and finally became quiet.
Seeing these eagle owls finally flying away from here, Xiao Xu's mission was "perfectly" completed. After thanking a few people, he wanted to leave with the eagle owls. When Jia Lihu saw Xiao Xu moving his lips, as if he had something to say, he wisely found an excuse to wait in the distance.
"Little King Jinpeng, I'm so sorry! I caused such a misunderstanding tonight, and I haven't been able to help you at all..." Xiao Xu looked a little embarrassed and said sheepishly.
"Brother Xiao, don't worry about it." Jin Tiaojiang shook his head and smiled, saying that he didn't care.
"I wonder what little Jinpeng King has planned next? If Little Jinpeng King doesn't mind, I will try my best to help you find traces of Zhao Changsheng when I return to the Eagle Owl Clan!" Xiao Xu said with a serious face.
"Don't bother, this matter is of great importance. If you get involved, I'm afraid you will get burned! As for Zhao Changsheng's matter, we will find another solution!" Jin Tiaojiang refused.
"Then...Okay." Seeing that he couldn't help, Xiao Xu looked very disappointed and said dejectedly.
"Okay, Brother Xiao! I will often go to the Eagle Owl Clan to look for you in the future!" Seeing Xiao Xu's dejected face, Huang You patted the latter's shoulder to comfort him, but the latter was shocked and refused again and again.
After saying goodbye, Xiao Xu also shook his head, dusted himself off and was about to leave, but when he touched his chest, his face suddenly became happy, and he quickly ran towards the two people who turned away: " Little King Jinpeng! Please wait a moment!"
"Brother Xiao, what else can you do?" Jin Tiaojiang turned around and asked.
"Little King Jinpeng, here you go!" Xiao Xu took a few steps, took something out of his pocket and put it in Jin Tiaojiang's hand.
Jin Tiaojiang lowered his head and saw that what appeared in his hand was a copper plate. However, both sides of the copper plate were polished and shiny. Jin Tiaojiang looked over and over carefully, but he couldn't see anything special about it.
Seeing Jin Tiaojiang's confused expression, Xiao Xu also hurriedly explained: "Little King Jinpeng, although I won't be of much use in searching for Zhao Changsheng, I just suddenly remembered this! If you can find the owner of this copper plate , with some pointers, maybe we can find Zhao Changsheng!"
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Jin Tiaojiang held the copper coin in his fingertips, then raised his head and asked, "Is the owner of this copper plate also related to Zhao Changsheng?"
Xiao Xu shook his head when he heard this, then lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Back to King Jinpeng, the owner of this copper plate is a living god!"
"Living Immortal?" Huang You had no intention of eavesdropping on the conversation between the two, but seeing Xiao Xu's mysterious face, he turned his head over curiously. When he heard the words "Living Immortal", he couldn't help but laugh and said with disdain. : "Brother Xiao, there are no living gods in this world. I'm afraid you have been deceived!"
"Bah, bah, bah! What do you know!" Xiao Xu glared at Huang You when he heard this, then raised his fists on his head and said: "How can a living god allow you to slander me? If this matter is false, I dare to use it. Is it possible to deceive Little Jinpeng King?"
"Okay, Brother Xiao, why don't you first tell me...what is going on with this living god?" King Jinpeng pulled Xiao Xu to prevent the latter from choking further.
"Back to King Jinpeng, this is what happened..." Xiao Xu rolled his eyes at Huang You, then frowned and thought back carefully.
"This matter must start again when the eagle owls ran away... At that time, the eagle owls in the nearby area had traces to follow, so it was not a troublesome to find them. However, it gradually became more difficult to find them outside. If I want to go east, I am afraid of losing the trace of the west. If I go west, it will be difficult to find the east! Just when I was thinking about what to do, I suddenly met a traveler on the roadside. man of…"
"At that time, I originally wanted to ask him if he had seen an eagle owl passing by, but this man looked panicked and kept looking back, as if he was avoiding something, and ignored me at all!"
"I felt that I couldn't get anything out of this person, so I turned around and left. But just as I was about to leave, I felt my clothes tightening and someone grabbed me. The person told me that if I helped him avoid this disaster, He will do me a big favor!"
"At that time, I saw that this man's face was kind and not evil at all, and I saw thick smoke coming from the distance. I nodded, pulled this man and hid in a tree. After a while, I saw a group of people with expressions on their faces. The vicious man chased me with weapons in hand and then disappeared at the other end while cursing."
"Seeing these people passing by, this man was relieved. What did he claim to be...the Green Fairy? He was chased because of some misunderstanding...I was looking for the Eagle Owl anxiously. It didn't matter what happened to him. Since this person We are out of danger, so I don’t plan to delay any more and just say goodbye and leave!”
"But the Green Fairy stopped me and said that he had just promised to help me, and he couldn't break his promise, so he couldn't help but force me to do a fortune telling..."
"I didn't care at first, but this man told me my name, birthday, and past events in great detail. He even knew exactly what I wanted to do during this trip. It was so shocking! Then! This person also gave me a copper plate, and asked me to go along the road, and I would meet noble people to help me, and then I would be able to complete the assigned task without having to take action..."
"Originally I had forgotten about this matter. It was not until I touched the copper plate that I suddenly remembered it. Although it took a long time, the result was indeed like meeting this living god! If the little Jinpeng King found this living god , he will definitely help you find where Zhao Changsheng is!"
In Xiao Xu's expectant eyes, Jin Tiaojiang and his wife bid farewell to him again. However, neither of them paid attention to what Xiao Xu had just said. After all, such ambiguous words were just a delaying tactic used by charlatans. Jin Tiaojiang did not pay attention and put away the coins at will.
Najia Orion was waiting drowsily on the side, but when he saw the two coming out, he hurriedly followed them and asked them what their plans were next.
The two originally planned to ask about Zhao Changsheng. Since the inquiry was fruitless, they were also confused. However, Xiao Xu had previously said that Zhao Changsheng seemed to be heading west, so they thought to try their luck heading west, maybe they could get something on the way. Maybe we'll meet him.
Jia Lihu was also happy when he heard this, saying that he originally planned to go to the west to find something near Cangga City later. Since he was on the way now, he wanted to advance the process a little earlier to avoid being too lonely when he hit the road in the future.
Jin Tiaojiang and Huang You happily agreed upon hearing this, so the three of them numbered their dogs and embarked on the westward journey together.
To the west from Yangdu City, there is a place that is deserted for hundreds of miles. It is simply impossible to get replenishment halfway. At this time, the gates of Yangdu City were closed, so a few people found a post station from outside the city to the west, which replenished their consumption in the next few days.
Although they had been working hard all night, Jin Tijiang and Huang You were not tired at all. Even Jia Lihu and the hounds were lively and energetic. But the road ahead might be extremely difficult, so a few people took advantage of the short break before dawn to find a place to rest in the inn, so as to save some energy in advance.
There was nothing to say in the short night, and the sky should have become brighter long ago, but God was not kind to me this time, and I was so groggy for a long time that I didn't want to let the light shine. A black cloud covered the sky and the earth, and dark thunder made muffled sounds in the clouds. The gloomy atmosphere pressed on everyone's heart, and they could hardly breathe.
"The heavy rain is coming, it will be difficult to walk..." Jia Lihu looked at the sky, rubbed the damp soil on the ground, and said to himself.
"Brother Huang You, I don't know how long this trip will be delayed. Anyway, Jia Lihu will be with you on the way. Why don't you go back first, lest your sister-in-law wait impatiently." Seeing the gloomy sky, Jin Tiaojiang couldn't help it for a while. As he was on his way, he tried to persuade him again.
"Brother Xian is on the road like this, how can I let brother Wei feel at ease? I have already asked someone to send back the things I bought. It doesn't hurt to go back later! Brother Xian, there is no need to persuade brother Wei anymore..." Huang You was decisive again refused.
Jin Tiaojiang originally wanted to say a few more words, but when he saw that Huang You hugged him with his arms and turned away from him, he could only smile helplessly, stand up and look out the window at the thousands of silver threads descending on the world.
The heavy rain in front of us only accumulated for a moment, but it became so breathtaking and vigorous. The dark cloud in my heart has been planned for a long time, and once it comes, I don't know how many waves it will cause.
