Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Tracking

Lian Xing jumped off the camel and walked up to the realgar circle, but felt the smell of realgar medicine coming out of his nostrils. He couldn't help but frowned, thinking: These three white-robed corpse chasers must be sure to win, that's why they made such a big one. dose. Lian Xing stretched out his foot, wiped hard on the realgar circle, and immediately wiped a gap.With a "whoosh", the corpse mastiff jumped out of the gap. Lian Xing touched the head of the corpse mastiff and flew over.The three of them decided to find a place on the barren hills to sleep overnight, and set off early the next morning.

Everyone looked around, in the dark night, there seemed to be a white castle in the distance.Da Kui pointed to the earthen castle and said to Lian Xing and Jackson, "Why don't we stay overnight in that earthen castle, what do you think?" Lian Xing nodded.The three of them rode their horsewhip camels and galloped over.The corpse mastiff led the way, and the two owls also flew towards the earth castle. It wasn't until the three of Lian Xing arrived in front of the white earth castle that they discovered that it was an abandoned dwelling of a rich family.The roofs of the houses with three front and rear entrances have exposed the sky, and the courtyard walls are also broken.The whole courtyard looked dilapidated, as if it had long been deserted.

The three of them walked in through the gate and came to the courtyard.A tall tree was planted in the courtyard, and the tree was full of red fruits, which looked very beautiful in the night.Those fruits are very strange, each one is the size of a fist, and it is impossible to tell what kind of fruit it is.But at this time, the dark clouds all over the sky have disappeared, and the silver light of the slanting moon has made this strange fruit tree even more enchanting. Lian Xing frowned slightly as he looked at the fruit on the tree.Da Kui and Jackson were also quite surprised, so they couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Jackson wondered: "Master, what kind of tree is this, so beautiful?" Lian Xing shook his head and said, "I don't know either." Lian Xing has never seen this kind of tree, let alone know its name.Looking at this tree, looking at the tree full of red fruits, Lian Xing felt faintly uneasy. Da Kui looked at Lian Xing's face in a trance, and wondered, "What's wrong?" Lian Xing said slowly: "Don't you feel that there is something wrong here?" Da Kui shook his head. Lian Xing stretched out his hand, pointed at the tree full of fruits and said, "Think about it, in this wilderness and no one is watching, why no one steals the fruits? Isn't it strange?"

After Jing Lianxing said this, Da Kui also felt that this tree was a bit strange, and asked: "Then why do you think no one picked this fruit?" Lian Xing hesitated: "Maybe, the people who want to pick the fruit are already dead?" Lian Xing spoke coldly, Da Kui couldn't help shivering, he turned his head to look at Lian Xing, forced a smile and said, "Don't scare me!" Lian Xing didn't speak, and looked at the strange fruit tree with his eyes rolling.The atmosphere immediately became tense.Jackson and Da Kui stared at Lian Xing intently, waiting for his gesture.

Lian Xingyi waved his hand and said, "It's a blessing, not a disaster. It's a disaster that can't be avoided. Now that you've come here, you must have met this tree by chance. Let's rest for a night, and we'll talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to do." .” The three put the white camel into the courtyard, and tied the two horses to the red painted pillars on the porch of the hall outside.The corpse mastiff fell asleep while lying on the porch outside, and the two giant owls perched on the branches of that strange fruit tree. After everything was arranged, the three of them walked into the dilapidated hall.I saw that the roof of this hall had been pierced at some point, and the cold moonlight slanted in.

The three of them looked around, and saw that the left corner of the hall was still neat.The three walked over immediately.There are two Taishi chairs placed in the corner, the back of the chair is carved with the pattern of pine and crane prolonging the year, obviously implying a long life; the other Taishi chair is carved with peony flowers, which symbolizes wealth and auspiciousness. Lian Xing said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there are chairs prepared for the two of you here." Da Kui laughed, and sat down on his buttocks honestly. Jackson humbly said, "Master, you should rest for a while."

Lian Xing smiled and said, "You should sit down, Jackson, I'll think about things here first." Seeing that Lian Xing insisted on not sitting down, Jackson just sat down. Da Kui and Jackson sat in the grand master's chair, and after only a cup of tea, the two began to snore like thunder. Lian Xing leaned in a corner and meditated secretly.After a while, a sense of drowsiness came over me, and when I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I suddenly heard a soft "crack" from the roof above my head. Lian Xing was shaken all over, and immediately woke up, opened his eyes slightly and looked up, only to see a human head slowly protruding from the big hole in the roof, looking furtively into the room.

Lian Xing pretended to be sound asleep and snored. The night walker on the roof looked at the three people who were sleeping soundly, with a secret smile on the corner of his mouth.He slowly retracted his head back.There was another slight sound of footsteps on the roof, as if the man had gradually moved away. Lian Xing waited for the sound of footsteps to disappear, quietly got up, walked up to Da Kui and Jackson, and patted Da Kui on the shoulder lightly. Da Kui was alert, his whole body trembled, he woke up from his sleep, rubbed his eyes, and felt relieved when he saw that it was Lian Xing.He muttered to Lian Xing dissatisfied: "Lian Xing, you scared me to death! He is sleeping soundly."

Lian Xing shook Jackson awake again.Seeing Lian Xing's solemn expression, the two of them didn't understand why. Jackson whispered, "What's the matter, Master?" Lian Xing said in a deep voice, "There are enemies coming." Both of them were startled, Qiqi stood up and searched around, whispering: "Where is it?" Jackson even took out his foreign gun and fired at any time. Lian Xing waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous. Just now, someone came to explore the way, and after a while, they will definitely come to attack with their companions."

Da Kui was still a little nervous, and said, "Then what should we do now?" Lian Xing said quietly: "We will wait for them here." Da Kui said anxiously: "There will be no danger in this way, right? I think we might as well abandon the village and go." Lian Xing shook his head, and said: "In this wilderness, dozens of miles of land is flat, and there is no place to hide. After all, there is still a hiding place here. You can deal with those people." Big Kui and Jackson heard that Lian Xing had made a decision, so he had no objection. The three of them waited quietly in this dilapidated hall.After a stick of incense, there was indeed a thunderous sound of horseshoes coming from afar. The three of them were shocked.Da Kui looked at Lian Xing and said in a low voice, "Sure enough, it's here!" Lian Xing nodded.The corpse mastiff obviously heard the sound of the horse's hooves, and stood up a long time ago. Its two green eyes were fixed on the gate, and it let out a "woo woo" sound. Lian Xing and the three of them held their breath and listened intently.The sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer. At first, the sound was still several miles away, but after a while, they had already arrived in front of this dilapidated courtyard. Lian Xing turned his head and was about to speak to Da Kui when he suddenly saw a black light flying out of the gate from the corridor. It was the corpse mastiff ready to go. There was only a scream outside the door, followed by shouts of shouting and cursing, creating a great chaos.The screams went all the way to the east, and several horses followed and chased to the east.In the darkness, a smile flashed across Lian Xing's face. Jackson thought to himself: I don't know how many people came outside the door, but the master can still laugh. His calmness is really admirable. Lian Xing whispered: "A good friend is here, let's say hello." Da Kui drew out his single sword, and Jackson drew out his foreign gun, ready to meet the enemy at any time. The three of them stood in the dark at the entrance of the hall, looking up.I saw twenty or thirty strange men in white robes barging in from outside the gate.The costumes of these white robes are exactly the same as those of the corpse chasers who escaped from the barren hill just now, and the leader is the corpse chaser who planned to ambush on the barren hill. Standing in the courtyard, these people were all dressed in white robes and looked like hanged ghosts.In the dark night, against the blood-red fruit on that strange fruit tree, it looks very strange. At this time, these white-robed corpse chasers also saw the big tree in the courtyard, and they were all stunned when they saw the red fruits all over the tree. One of the skinny men said to the leader of the exorcists: "Third brother, why is this tree so weird?" The person called "Third Brother" stared firmly at the snow-white camel in the corner of the courtyard, and didn't hear the thin man's question at all.His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his face was extremely tense.After a while, he said to a burly man behind him, "It's this white camel." A burly man with a square face and a big black mole on his left cheek, with a strand of black hair growing on the mole.He frowned and said, "Third brother, can you see clearly, it's this white camel?" "Third Brother" gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "It's unmistakable, it's this camel." The burly man nodded and said in his heart: It seems that he has found the right person.This camel was covered in snow, which was very rare, it was so dazzling in the dark night, the third child could never forget it.What's more, this camel kicked the talisman water in front of the three brothers, breaking the corpse control technique, so that his brother was finally invaded by the corpse poison, and now he is still lying in the inn, and his personnel are unknown.Only then did the third son beg his brothers from the same sect to come and look for the whereabouts of the white camel, and he must find out the person under the belly of the white camel to avenge his hatred. "Third Brother" turned his eyes slowly, looking at the dilapidated hall opposite the courtyard.Three of the four hall doors in the hall have already been lost, and only one hall door is still hanging alone on the side of the hall.It was pitch black inside the door. "Third brother" felt hairy for a while, and thought: Although Zhang San said that there are several strangers in the hall and they are still sleeping soundly, but after the noise just now, they must have woken up long ago and are staring at each other. Hiding inside, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack.Hehe, it's better to push the three of them out, and dozens of us will rush forward, no matter how good his martial arts are, we will surely capture the three of them and avenge the fifth brother. Having made up his mind, he immediately took a few steps forward and shouted loudly: "You bastard, what kind of a hero is he who hides in the house furtively? If you have the ability, come out and have a fair fight with our men! Come out! Ah, you shrinking-headed turtles!" Before he finished speaking, "Third Brother" suddenly felt his head go dark, and there was a strong wind blowing from the big tree.Looking up in horror, I saw two giant birds rushing down from the big tree. Those two big birds spread their wings about a foot wide, as if covering the sky and the sun; their iron beaks were as sharp as hooks, and they grabbed the top of "Third Brother" suddenly.These two big birds are exactly the two giant owls that Lian Xing and Da Kui raised since childhood. Seeing that the situation was not good, "Third Brother" jumped out like an arrow. Seeing the fierceness of these two giant owls, all the corpse hunters couldn't help being flustered.I don't know who yelled, and the crowd dispersed immediately. The two giant owls spread their wings and rushed forward.With a hook, the iron claws grabbed the vests of one of the exorcists, flapped their wings, and flew up suddenly.The two white-robed corpse hunters were caught by the giant owl, and they lifted them abruptly, their faces pale with fright, and they couldn't stop shouting in the air. "Third Brother" no longer cared about his own safety, and pulled out a seven-foot soft whip from his waist, took a breath, jumped up, and wrapped the soft whip in his hand around the leg of one of the giant owl's claws.This time the strength was just right, the soft whip was swung away, and it just wrapped around the leg of the corpse chaser. After two slaps, there was only a "chi la" sound, and the clothes on the back of the corpse chaser couldn't bear the pull of "third brother" and Ju Xiao for a moment, and immediately tore. He fell to the ground amidst the exclamation of the exorcist. Another giant owl grabbed a corpse chaser and flew out of the gate, and this giant owl immediately followed.The two giant owls flew one behind the other, and disappeared in a short while.Only the hoarse cry for help from the corpse chaser remained in the air. The faces of the people in the courtyard changed color, and their hearts were pounding. Unexpectedly, there were two big birds ambushing on this big tree.These two giant owls come and go like lightning, advance and retreat like gods, and their figures are as fast as ghosts.All the corpse hunters didn't know when the two giant owls would return and attack again, they were all in a panic. "Third Brother" said to the burly man with a bitter face, "Hall Master Wang, how do we advance and retreat now?" Hall Master Wang looked into the dark hall, with a fierce light in his eyes, and said bitterly: "Catch the thief first. Two of our brothers have been injured, so now we have to ask the people in here to ask for it. Take those three people and force them to hand over our brother." There was a sense of coldness in the words of Hall Master Wang, and all the corpse hunters shuddered when they heard it.
