Chapter 173 Pursuit

"Hurry up and keep up." Just as Pei Qing was sad and annoyed, the thunder leopard had chased under the tree with his men.

"Your Excellency, look!" A man pointed to a pool of unfrozen blood at the root of the tree and shouted.

"With so much blood, they must have rested here for a while and have only left for a short time." A man was stained with some blood and judged.

"Bastard!" When the thunder leopard heard the words, he punched the tree fiercely and fell down the leaves on the ground. From the discovery of Pei Qing's trace to the tracking here, they were exhausted by all kinds of doubts and traps along the way. The thunder leopard was furious when he thought of the hardships he had suffered along the way.

"My lord, are we still chasing?" Looking at the thunder leopard's fury, his men asked carefully.

"Chasing! I won't give up if I don't catch them. The thunder leopard roared.

In the roar of the thunder leopard, the group followed the footprints left by the struggle.

It was not until he couldn't hear the sound that Pei Qing dared to poke his head out of the leaves. The thunder leopard's punch on the tree just now almost scared Pei Qing out. At this time, as soon as the pursuers left, he quickly climbed down the tree.

Just now, because the thunder leopard was in a state of anger, he did not find any abnormality. Once he calmed down, he would definitely figure it out. Pei Qing ran to a big tree 100 meters away, climbed up the branch with difficulty, observed the situation of the big tree in place, and secretly prayed for the struggle of the man who was willing to be a bait.

In the depths of the woods, without the burden of Pei Qing, he struggled like a fish in water. He gently shuttled between the trees and arranged various traps casually. He always kept a distance from the pursuers behind him. Once the other party showed signs of giving up, he deliberately created some illusions that he was within reach of the other party, causing Thunder Leopard and others to keep running behind him.

"Stop." After chasing behind his men for a long time, the thunder leopard finally calmed down. He found that the target in front of him seemed to deliberately lead them around the woods.

A group of people behind him stopped panting. They had been walking in the woods for nearly two hours and were already exhausted.

"We have been fooled!" After calming down, the thunder leopard remembered that there must be someone hiding on the big tree that had not solidified blood on the beach before. Because his punch hit the trunk of the tree and dropped the leaves on the ground, but it did not startle a bird. This abnormal situation did not attract his attention at that time. Now it is thought that someone must be hiding on it to scare the bird away. Now looking back, it must have been empty. Thinking that all this is in the other party's calculation, the thunder leopard can't help but hate it.

"Our soldiers are divided into five ways. From all sides, I don't believe we can't catch him!" After learning that he had been fooled, although Leibao was extremely angry, he was no longer affected by his thoughts. He calmly ordered to divide his men into four groups and expand the scope of pursuit.

He made a plan to force the person who dared to play with him into a desperate situation.

Thunder Leopard's strategy really worked. Their scope gradually narrowed, and the scope of activities was getting smaller and smaller, and they were forced to flee to the southwest.

The southwest direction is deliberately left by the thunder leopard. He learned from the villagers of Yunwu Town that there is a small river in that direction. Not only is the water flowing fast, but what's more terrible is that there is a kind of piranha living in the river.

Hearing the sound of water flowing in front of him, he struggled to know that there was a river in front of him. He accelerated his speed and soon reached the river.

The river is only more than 50 meters wide, but it is more than ten meters deep. The rapid river makes a huge sound and rushes to the east.

Just as he was struggling to cross the river, a large fish washed down from the upstream was eaten by countless small fish suddenly appearing in the river in a few breaths. Seeing this scene made him stand still.

"Pyranhas!" Although I have not seen this notorious fish with my own eyes, their ferocity and fierceness make the struggle to recognize them in the first place.

"I didn't expect that there would be piranhas here!" Thinking that he had just become the belly meal of these horrible little things, he couldn't help sweating coldly.

Listening to the faint noise behind him, the pursuers were not far from him. If he can't get through the current difficulty, his end is self-evident.

"Quick! Don't let him run away again." Listening to the louder and louder sound of the river, the thunder leopard excitedly greeted the villagers who fell behind him.

"Plop!" The sound of a heavy object falling into the water came, and the thunder leopard was stunned.

"Is there a way for him to cross the river safely?" Hearing the sound of falling into the water, Lei Bao did not think that the other party would be stupid enough to cross the river. He must have come up with a way to cross the river safely.

Thinking of this, the thunder leopard rushed to the river with his feet.

In just a few breaths, the thunder leopard had already stood by the river, but he didn't find the person who fooled them around.

After a moment, from all other directions, his four men also rushed to the scene. The expression of the thunder leopard's face made them shudder. They only dared to stand behind the thunder leopard for fear that he would vent his anger on themselves.

"He escaped again?" The old mayor also rushed to the river with the villagers soon after.

"Humph!" The thunder leopard snorted when he heard the words.

"How did he escape?" The old mayor asked.

"There." The thunder leopard pointed to a branch floating on the surface of the river.

"That's..." Looking in the direction pointed by the thunder leopard, the old mayor saw a branch in the middle of the river. After just a look, the old mayor found its strangeness. In such a rapid river, such a branch was not washed away.

"He wrapped one end of the long whip around the branch and fixed the other end to the stone. In this way, it will not be washed away by the river, and he will jump over the river on the branch. Thunder Leopard analyzed.

"Then only let him escape like this?" The old mayor asked urgently.

The old mayor was very anxious at this time, because he knew that once the thunder leopard was leaked here, Yunwu Town would no longer be safe, and even all the secrets would be exposed.

"Otherwise, what else can be done? Otherwise, you can cross the river to chase. The thunder leopard replied coldly.

At this moment, the long whip wrapped around the branches was bitten by the piranhas, and the branches floated downstream with the river.

"I will report to the Lord God about what happened today!" After leaving this sentence, the old town mayor turned around and left with the villagers. He knew that the small town they had lived in for hundreds of years was no longer safe. For the lives of hundreds of people in the town and for the sake of secrecy, they had to move as soon as possible.

"Your Excellency, what should we do now?" All the villagers have left, and a man boldly asked.

"Let's go back to town." Leibao is also a little worried now. I don't know what kind of attitude the god will have when he knows about this matter. Originally, he was already waiting for sin, but now he has made such a basket. Thinking of God's means of punishment, he couldn't help shivering.

Less than half a cup of tea after everyone left the river, they jumped on a small tree by the river. It was the struggle of Thunder Leopard and others who thought they had crossed the river.

Because he struggled and couldn't get under Pei Qing, he didn't really cross the river. In order to muddle through, he took a risk and made the illusion that he had crossed the river, and he himself lurked in the tree beside him.

Sure enough, when Leibao and his party saw the illusion he made, they all thought that he had crossed the river. No one thought that he would risk his life to lurker aside. In this way, he once again played with the pursuers in the palm of his hand. When he was sure that everyone had left, he came down from the tree and turned back to find Pei Qing.
