There was a strange silence in the room.
Everyone was stunned.
That's fifty thousand people! If you line up in two columns, you can pull out
many miles from the end to the end, how could it be said that there is no one!
?
"Maybe they just didn't take the road of Huangtu Town... but went straight
down from Baili Town to the mountain?" Shan Hui said after a long while.
"Impossible." Jiulin immediately denied, "Only when the southern mountains are
at our current location, will there be a sinking gap. If you pull out all the
woods, you will find that Jiuyao Mountain is actually a high wall. It is
difficult to climb to the sky from other places. If it is a big monster like
Sister Li, it may be possible to do it, but for 50,000 people, it is
definitely a dead end."
She has lived in Yuetai Villa for several years and is quite familiar with the
periphery of Baiyao Mountain. Any medicine farmer or hunter who wants to enter
the mountain is a loess town without exception. Even these veterans choose
this way, let alone other people.
"Where are they stationed? Did you find anything?" Li asked.
"There are no signs of fighting or riots. These people evacuated
spontaneously." Mu Youhong shook his head. "There can be no footprints on the
dry land, and no traces of rutting, so it was reported missing there. But they
are not without them. It was discovered that some scattered wild fruits were
found on the scene, which should be wild jujubes from Ganzhou. This thing
tastes very astringent and the meat also has a bitter taste. Generally, few
people take the initiative to eat it unless..."
"Unless the ration is insufficient, wild fruits will be used to fill it." Li
continued.
"That's the case." Mu Youhong affirmed, "This may also explain why they
attacked the city in Suzhou, but they just bury their heads in Ganzhou."
Because even if the small towns in Ganzhou are taken, they will not be
allocated much grain.
Their choice is to speed up the journey and arrive at the so-called "outer
heaven" as soon as possible.
Li felt a hint of urgency.
She doesn't believe in the saying that there is no worry about food and
clothing in the kingdom of heaven. In the absence of logistical supplies for
50,000 people, once the food and grass are cut off, even if Jinxiacheng wants
to replenish it, it will not be so easy. No matter where the Black Door took
people, she must find the other party's whereabouts as soon as possible to
avoid large-scale starvation.
"We will set off tonight and rush to Baili Town." Li made a decision
immediately, "Even if they disappear suddenly, we must at least find a way for
them to disappear."
The others nodded.
After all, the Baekje caravan is not a professional spy organization.
Inquiring about street rumors and seeing the scene is the limit of the
businessmen's ability. The clues they can't find may be another matter in the
hands of professionals.
After reaching an agreement, the investigation team quickly moved into action.
Li climbed on the roof, set up the antenna, and reported to Jin Xia what he
had inquired with the audio system. He hoped that the rear could be ready to
support. Then the group quietly left the inn and ran for two hundred and sixty
miles overnight. Baili Town outside the land.
In the afternoon of the next day, Li and the others arrived at their
destination—this is also the advantage of the All-Monster team. As long as Wu
Lie is sure that there is no one around, Shan Hui can carry Li and Jiulin to
run wildly in the countryside, far faster than the speed. Yu Benma.
Everyone didn't enter the town, but went directly to the station of the Black
Door.
It is about ten miles away from Baili Town. According to common sense, whether
they are turning back on the same road or moving eastward into Huangtu Town,
it is impossible to avoid the sight of pedestrians on the road. Looking to the
south, there are lush jungles and towering peaks. Due to the steepness of the
mountains, you can even see a touch of gray on the top of the mountain.
Shanhui circled the abandoned camp and said with certainty, "The remaining
smell is still obvious. They are not going east or west, but directly south
and entered the forest area."
"It seems so." Li frowned. As far as common sense is concerned, the south is a
dead end, and naturally no one would consider where they went. Therefore, for
the caravan, the Black Gate is like disappearing in place. "Ulie, you take a
step first and look for their possible direction from the air. We will follow
the smell behind."
"Understood, leave it to me!" Wu Lie spread his wings and flew towards the
rolling mountains.
…
However, the development of the situation went beyond Li's expectation.
The smell faded abruptly after entering the mountain forest, and almost
disappeared when it approached the mountain wall, and it was no longer
difficult to provide effective clues.
After Wu Lie revolved twice in a radius of fifty miles, he didn't get
anything, he could only return in vain.
Now Li finally gave birth to a horrible feeling.
Fifty thousand people actually evaporated out of thin air!
"How is this possible?" Shan Hui showed an unbelievable expression, "The
progress in the mountains is much slower than outside. If they had walked four
or five days ago, it would be impossible to climb any mountain."
"No, even if they can turn it over, they can't avoid Wulie's investigation."
Li sank and reconsidered the fact. "Broken branches and fallen shrubs in the
woods can prove that the Black Door has indeed been here. .If they have the
trick of becoming people out of thin air, they won’t be able to migrate all
the way to Baili Town. Similarly, if they traveled through Suzhou, Leizhou and
Ganzhou so hard, if only to deliberately kill these 50,000 people, It's too
uneconomical. What's more, there are Miss Luo in the team, it is impossible to
sit back and watch them—"
When she said this, there was a sudden meal.
"By the way, Luo Qingqing is also in the team! If it were her, maybe she would
leave some clues so that we would not be left behind."
"It's possible." Shan Hui agreed, "but I found nothing special when I found it
along the way. As for Lord Luo's smell, it must be very different from when he
left Jinxia."
"Let me think about it." Li pondered for a moment, with a guess in his mind,
"...anyway, try it first."
She raised her tail, and imagined the prototype of the Earthquake Thunder in
her mind.
The long white tail is like an amplifier, spreading her thoughts, causing
ripples of the surrounding air. UU reading www. uukanshu. Com was at this
moment, and she felt the flow of qi changed from chaos to order, concentrated
on a spot not far away.
The spell failed to be successfully used, but Li found a ring tied with copper
wire on a branch thirty steps away.
"This is..." Wu Lie said curiously.
"The copper wire pendant made by Jinxia, but it was disassembled and re-
tied." Li's heart suddenly became clear, "Luo Qingqing is using this method to
remind us of the whereabouts of the Black Sect!"
Feeling the resonance of magic and medicine is a compulsory course for
alchemists, but only alchemists who have been nurtured by Jinxia can associate
vibration technique with copper wire pendants.
The scope of qi detection is much larger than that of the naked eye.
In this way, even if the clues are hidden in some extremely secret places,
there is no need to worry that Jinxia's trackers will be difficult to find.
As for the followers of the Black Door, it is impossible to stare at all Luo
Qing's movements.
This is undoubtedly an excellent one-way road sign!
