Chapter 199 The Missing Adventurer
All the way to the cliff of life and death, there are a lot of problems along the road. Sometimes you will encounter a spirit beast attack, and sometimes you will encounter the provocation of other adventure teams. However, those provocative adventurer teams were all solved by Ruan Lingfang. Sometimes she spent some money to send other adventurer teams, and sometimes she took a tough stance to let the other party retreat. As for the sneak attack of the spirit beast, this problem was solved by Bai Niao Chong and Nancy. However, along the way, the spirit beasts hunted are all low-level spirit beasts, most of which are in the early stage of the prefecture level, and the higher one is in the middle of the prefecture level. Such a spiritual beast doesn't even have much value in the spiritual nucleus. Therefore, Bai Niao Chong did not swallow these spiritual nuclei alone. Every time he hunted the spirit beast, he would always give some benefits to Ruan Lingfang's team. The spiritual nucleus he was given to Mengzhi without exception. In his team, only Mengzhi can use the spiritual core of this bright attribute.
If you take all the benefits for yourself, how can you do this alliance? Bai Niao Chong has his own plan. As he has been with the Ruan Lingfang team for a long time, through observation, he found that the team has a unique grasp of the situation of the flower demon. They seem to have clues that others don't have. He tried twice and wanted to know what clues they had in their hands, but the other party's people cleverly avoided his question. The more they are like this, the more curious he is. He can't help thinking, is there really any flower demon?
Starting from the allied cave, five days passed in a blink of an eye. In the past five days, hundreds of birds have released the spirit eagle behind Ruan Lingfang and the adventurers in her team, and rode the spirit eagle to the black wolf village. He learned about Linhei City and Baihua Medical Center from the channels of the Black Wolf Gang.
The person who reports all kinds of information to him is naturally Shi Gupeng. From Gu Peng, he also knew the situation of Linhei City and the Baihua Medical Center. Indeed, just as he was in the Fu Tianzi killing group, an adventurer brought back the news of the flower demon. As a result, the whole Linhei city was boiling, and all kinds of heroes entered the lightless forest one after another. Not only the Red Beard Bandits, but also the Black Fire Mercenary Regiment.
As he expected, just after he left, Yuan Ziyan went to Baihua Medical Center and saw Lan Qingyi. Gu Peng told him the conversation between Lan Qingyi and Yuan Ziyan word. This is also what Yuan Ziyan wants to tell him through Gu Peng. Lan Qingyi knew that Gu Peng was a special person to collect information for him. The master and apprentice had also discussed in advance that the black wolf village was the place to exchange information.
In this information exchange, Bai Niao Chong asked Gu Peng to tell Lan Qingyi that everyone on his side was safe, and the Tianzi killing team had solved it. Lan Qingyi told Bai Niaochong a message through Gu Peng's mouth, that is, knowing that he was making in the Wuguang Forest, Yuan Ziyan actually wanted to enter the Wuguang Forest and asked him to be careful.
The news from Gu Peng's mouth has long been expected by Bai Niao Chong, which is also the result he wants.
This time, from the lightless forest to the black wolf village, there is another very important purpose, that is, to measure the time when the spirit eagle flies from the lightless forest to the black wolf village, and some details of its flight, such as speed, such as stability, such as control, etc. These are the things he must master.
After this round-trip flight, Bainiao Chong found that even if he reached the center of the lightless forest and rode a spiritual eagle, he could go back and forth within the time of incense. This discovery made him very happy. With such a quick transfer ability, he did not have to worry about disconnecting contact with Baihua Medical Center. In addition, the plan to enter the ghost refiner store can also be carried out as scheduled.
In a blink of an eye, the seventh day has arrived.
It has been seven days since the last killing. According to the rules of entering the ghost refiner store, Bainiao Chong must kill one person today and put it in the other direction of Linhei City. Although killing is already a familiar thing for Bai Niao Chong now, who is going to kill someone suddenly?
In any case, Bai Niaochong will not give up his own standard of killing.
All day long, hundreds of birds rushed to look for his standard hunting target, but until the team stopped in a dense forest, no suitable target appeared.
"Let's camp here. It will be dark soon." Ruan Lingfang said to Bainiao Chong, "It will take another three days to reach the cliff of life and death. This area is very dangerous, and it is even more dangerous to travel at night. We camp here, take turns to watch the night, and go on our way early tomorrow morning.
"Then camp here." Hundreds of birds rushed to look around. The terrain of this dense forest is higher than that around it, and the vision is wide. If there is a sneak attack by spirit beasts, it is also conducive to defense. Ruan Lingfang's team is still very experienced in this regard, and he would do the same.
After the location of the camp was set, Ruan Lingfang's people became busy. Some people picked up firewood and prepared to make a bonfire when the night came. This can not only dispel the cold, but also scare off some beasts and spirit beasts that are naturally afraid of fire. Some people look for wild edible fungi and wild vegetables in the dense forest to prepare dinner. Some people look for water sources farther away to replenish water storage. Bai Niaochong and his small team were much more leisurely, and Nancy wiped her three knives. Meng Zhi sat still in front of a small tree. Mu Wanrong followed the instructions of Bainiao Chong to help Ruan Lingfang's people do some simple things, such as cleaning up wild vegetables.
Bai Niao Chong also has things to do in his middle, but this is not to find a target that can be hunted, but to sit quietly in the corner far away from the camp and practice his judge's soul formula. Now, with the thunderwood on the ground, the breath of death and dark energy on his body have been covered up without a trace. As long as he is not a Taoist priest and Buddhist monk with faith, he can relax and practice even close to the adventurer team. He has been doing what he has been doing for a while.
There is another reason why he can be so relieved, that is, the practice of the judge's soul formula is not a virtual practice of ghost refining power, but an application of ghost refining power. So, the ghost refining power is running in his body, and he has to cover the energy of death and the dark energy. It seems that there is no difference between sitting in meditation. Why is he worried about it?
However, if the judge's soul formula is used with the Yulong judge's pen, it is another matter. If a hundred birds are sitting in front of him at this moment, and he draws his shadow with the jade dragon judge's pen, then the use of the judge's soul formula, the person's figure will rise from the ground, be put into the jade dragon judge's pen, and be refined by him, and become his ghost refining power. And the person who loses the shadow, that is, the refined soul, will die.
The night slowly fell. The people sent by Ruan Lingfang also returned to the camp one after another. A bonfire was also lit in the middle of the camp, emitting a blazing fire. The cook also cooks the food, which is a large pot of meat soup mixed with wild mushrooms, wild vegetables and animal meat that is enough for everyone to have a full meal.
Bainiao Chong also ended his judge's practice of soul formula and returned to the camp with Meng Zhi. After a question, I knew that Mengzhi was not meditated, but practicing the Taoist's desireless mind.
It was originally time for dinner, but after returning to the camp, Bai Niao Chong smelled a trace of uneasiness, and the look of the adventurers in Yue also looked very nervous. He was secretly surprised that if something had happened, he would be nearby, and there was no reason not to know. He asked Ruan Lingfang, "Captain Ruan, what happened?"
"There is one less person." Ruan Lingfang said, "He is the one I sent out to find water to replenish the reserve water. Every time we send people out to get water, we have a time limit. Whether we find a water source, we have to come back. But now, after a limited time, he hasn't come back yet.
"I didn't come back... Did you send someone to look for it?" Hundreds of birds asked.
"I sent it and it's back." Ruan Lingfang frowned and said, "But we can't leave the camp too far away to search. In that case, if there are enemies who want to deal with us secretly, this is giving them a chance to break us one by one. So, now... we can only give up the search."
It is a very painful thing to lose a partner of life and death. When the adventurers from Yue heard that their captain had given up the search, their faces suddenly appeared sad. But they also know that it is very painful for their captain to make such a decision. After all, she bears the lives of all members, not just one of them.
Hundreds of birds bowed their heads and thought for a moment. He said, "Give me what my brother has used, whatever."
Ruan Lingfang looked at the hundred birds in surprise, "What? Are you going to look for him, Mr. Bai?"
Hundreds of birds nodded and said, "If you want to see people in life, you want to see corpses in death. If the spirit beast attacked and killed that brother, that's all. If other adventure teams or gangsters plot against us, they can't just do it, because they have begun to fight against us. If you don't fight back, more people will die inexplicably like this.
"In that case, I'll go with you." Ruan Lingfang said, "After all, he is our man."
Bai Niao Chong shook his head and said, "I'll go alone, and you stay here to be in charge of the camp. Give me what my brother has used."
Ruan Lingfang didn't understand Bainiao Chong's stubbornness, but she didn't insist too much. She asked someone to take a dress worn by the missing Yue adventurer and gave it to Bainiao Chong. When she wanted to persuade a few more words and send a few more Vietnamese adventurers to go with her, Bai Niao Chong had already left the camp with that dress.
What made Ruan Lingfang more surprised was that Bai Niaochong left without discussing this matter with his people, and his people, the three women, as if they hadn't seen it, didn't even have a word of caution or safety.
"What a strange team, everyone is very strange..." Ruan Lingfang sighed secretly in her heart and couldn't understand.
She didn't know that Meng Zhi and Nancy had completely different views on Bai Niao Chong's behavior.
"Brother Bai finally found a target that can be hunted, right? Although it appeared a little late, it was still in time. He must be very happy at this moment..." This is what Meng Zhi thought in his heart.
"It's acting alone again... Damn it! When will it be my turn?" This is Nancy's idea.
If she knew what her companions were thinking, Ruan Lingfang would definitely break out in a cold sweat at this moment.
Under the gaze of everyone, the hundred birds slowly disappeared into the dense forest. There is not a footprint where he has walked.
