Ma Tianjiao, Huo Linfang, Huang Yuan and Jiao Ruzhen walked on the mountain path dejectedly.
Loss was written all over their worried faces.
Just now, the four people, who were still a little unwilling, used all their strength to rush down from the top of the mountain.
I hope I can get away with chasing the guy who got away.
Unfortunately, luck is just luck after all... The probability of success will definitely be far less than failure.
In the end, it turned out that I couldn't even see a shadow, let alone catch up with him.
There is no longer any gain...
At this moment, they were unhappy and walking back and forth in silence.
However.
In the next moment, Ma Tianjiao's eyelids suddenly twitched as he was walking with his thoughts on his mind.
His eyes flashed and he quickly looked up.
Just now, Ma Tianjiao heard something coming from that place!
"Could it be that the guy who escaped didn't get far?..."
Without any time to think, he rushed over and quickly ran into the grass at that place.
This shocked Huang Yuan, Jiao Ruzhen, and Huo Linfang who were next to them, and the three of them hurriedly jumped over to see what was going on.
It was only after this jump that I discovered it.
It turns out that on the other side of the grass, there is another path that leads down the mountain.
In front of Ma Tianjiao, a man who looked like a woodcutter was frightened by the four figures that suddenly appeared and fell to the ground, his face turned pale.
"You!...What do you want to do?!...I don't have any money!!"
It turns out that the woodcutter mistook Ma Tianjiao and the others as bandits...
Ma Tianjiao, who was standing at the front, realized that he was too nervous. As a result, he was so reckless and lost his temper, which scared ordinary civilians.
So he showed a look of shame on his face and hurriedly apologized to the woodcutter, "I'm so sorry! I scared you... We are not bad people, but demon slayers... we are dealing with a task here."
After hearing this, the woodcutter's expression softened slightly.
He got up from the ground, looked at the costumes of Ma Tianjiao and the other four, and asked curiously, "Are you really a demon slayer? ... What are you doing here?"
Ma Tianjiao nodded, "We are indeed demon slayers. We received a report that someone died in this mountain, and the appearance of death was strange, so we came to take a look, and found that there were demons sacrificing zombies in the forest!"
When the woodcutter heard this, his expression changed drastically, "What?!... Is this mountain so scary?!..."
Ma Tianjiao saw that he, an ordinary civilian, was wandering around in this mountain forest, but he was not poisoned. He was really lucky.
So he persuaded, "This mountain forest is indeed extremely dangerous! I advise you to leave as soon as possible, so as not to get into trouble and become the next victim."
The woodcutter was quite frightened when he heard this, and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, Lord Demon Slayer, for reminding me! I'll leave now!"
So the woodcutter hurriedly picked up the load of firewood and prepared to leave.
But after walking a few steps, he turned back again.
Xiang Ma Tianjiao and the other four said, "When I was going down the mountain just now, I saw a man wearing a bamboo hat walking into the cave. If the mountain is not peaceful, that person might be in danger! Please also ask the demon slayers. Also go and remind this person, lest he suffer misfortune!”
The woodcutter's words immediately caused the expressions of Ma Tianjiao and the others to change.
Ma Tianjiao asked hurriedly, "When did you see that man wearing a hat?!"
The woodcutter thought for a moment and replied, "About two sticks of incense ago..."
This time, Ma Tianjiao, Huang Yuan, Jiao Ruzhen, and Huo Linfang were overjoyed.
Two sticks of incense were just before their eyes as they watched the guy who made zombies escape!
At that time, the four of them had given up chasing, feeling that they would never be able to catch up at that speed.
But.
He obviously saw the guy flying down the mountain, but he didn't expect the woodcutter to actually see him enter the cave!
What does this mean? !
This means that the guy is still in this mountain forest!
"So cunning!..."
Ma Tianjiao and the four of them winked at each other.
Huang Yuan then approached the woodcutter and said, "We know! You should leave quickly. When you go back, tell people not to enter this forest for the time being!"
The woodcutter nodded repeatedly, "Okay!...I'll leave now! I'll tell them not to go into the mountain when I get back!"
With that being said, he picked up the load of firewood and hurried down the mountain along the path.
At this moment, after sending the woodcutter down the mountain, Ma Tianjiao and the other two gathered together again and began to discuss in secret.
"What should we do next? Should we repeat the same old trick and directly round them up?"
At this time, Jiao Ruzhen asked in a low voice.
Ma Tianjiao pondered for a moment, but then shook his head, "This opponent is cunning and resourceful! And his strength is extraordinary! If the four of us alone carry out the roundup again, I'm afraid we will suffer the same failure as before!..."
When Huang Yuan heard this, he frowned and said, "Then what should we do? We can't just let him go, right?"
Ma Tianjiao continued, "Of course we can't let him go! It's just that we have to be cautious next time! So, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, it's better not to alert the enemy first!"
Speaking of this, Ma Tianjiao glanced at Jiao Ruzhen and Huang Yuan, and said, "I decided to stay at the foot of the mountain with Brother Jiao and Brother Huang Yuan, and set up traps to block the way down the mountain!"
Then he looked at Huo Linfang and said, "Miss Huo, go back to Yunzhou City to guard the mansion of the Demon Slayers, and ask the other eight Demon Slayers to come over and help!"
After hearing this, Huo Linfang nodded.
After hearing this, the other two people also expressed their agreement and had no objection.
In fact, in the area originally under Ma Tianjiao's jurisdiction, he was the only one who had three demon slayers, Huang Yuan and Jiao Ruzhen.
However, due to a major case, Huo Linfang was asked to come to help from the adjacent area.
At this time, it was the best choice for her to go back, explain the situation, and let the demon slayers in charge of other areas in Yunzhou City come with her.
The arrangements for this matter were decided, and the four demon slayers began to act separately.
Since we are waiting for the arrival of reinforcements, we must not act rashly and alert the enemy!
Everything that is done next must be done silently, without any flaws.
Ma Tianjiao also secretly swore that he would definitely keep that evil spirit behind this time!
Use a perfect victory to make up for the loss of previous defeats.
Ma Tianjiao, Jiao Ruzhen and Huang Yuan immediately searched for the only way down the mountain, setting up traps and soul power ropes!
They understand.
You have to move faster!
I hope these traps can be laid before reinforcements arrive.
When the time comes, twelve demon slayers will be rounded up together, plus the traps and soul power ropes set on the only way down the mountain.
No matter how strong he is and how fast his flight speed is, he may still be unable to resist and be captured without any help!
Ma Tianjiao was certain that this time he would definitely be able to prevent the mysterious evil monster from escaping from the Hui Hui Tian Net.
However.
Just as Ma Tianjiao and the other three were meticulously setting up traps at the foot of the mountain.
Beside the road at the foot of the mountain forest, behind the shadow of a tree, a figure was standing there quietly.
He was dressed like a woodcutter.
At this moment, he was hiding behind the shadow of the tree, silently observing the situation in the forest, and carefully watching what Ma Tianjiao and the other demon-slayers were doing!
