Chapter 38 Night Counterattack
"Spirit of water."
With three simple words, Xia's next expression can be said to be extremely funny, saying the three words "Spirit of Water".
"It's gone? Just three words?" Confused and doubtful, Xia suddenly had an impulse to scold his mother. He thought it was a treasure, but the message in his mind was only three words, "Spirit of Water".
"What kind of slapid thing? I don't know where to hide?" Jiang Xia scolded angrily and began to look for the blue ball all over his body, not even letting go of the storage ring. In the end, the blue ball was like playing hide-and-seek with Xia, and disappeared at all.
After a while, he was finally impatient. He looked depressed and said, "Forget it, anyway, I don't expect to find any unbelievable treasure in that small lake. If I don't see it, I won't see it!"
sent a few words, leaned Xia against the wall of the cave, and then took out a jade slip from the storage ring. His clear eyes became a little crazy. Then the dim light in the cave could faintly see a line of small words engraved on the jade slip.
"Dragon capturer!"
===.
After a long time, General Xia has been in the cave for nearly seven days. I have to say that this place is indeed hidden enough. For seven days, Situ Qi has not been found. I don't know if it was because of Lan Meng helping him outside, but he has a strong feeling that this place can't stay anymore.
Seven days of recuperation have restored Xia's body very well. Except for the slight pain in the chest, there is basically no problem.
"It's time to leave." Jiang Xia made up his mind, looked back at the dark cave, and then walked outside. The bright light rushed to the face with the fresh air, which shocked Xia's spirit. He deeply exhaled a turbid breath and sighed, "It's really good to be alive."
Then the next question comes again, "Where am I now?" Jiang Xia looked at the dense forest in front of him in astonishment and shook his head helplessly. He was brought by the Situ family after being stunned with ecstas, and then fled here with Lan Meng. Not to mention where the road was, he could not even distinguish between the southeast and northwest.
"Forget it, there is only one step at a time."
Walking in the quiet woods, Xia couldn't help feeling back to the scene of Bailiu Village hunting with her father Xie Xuan. With her excellent ears, she knew everything hidden in any tree.
It's the same now. Xia can clearly hear the wind blowing not far away. Is someone talking?" Xia was shocked, calmed down, and listened carefully to the source of the sound.
"Lord Situ, we have been looking for it for so long. Isn't that boy leaving?" He was talking about a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was a little tired on his face. Obviously, he had not rested for more than a dozen people standing behind him who were equally tired.
Situ Qi frowned and his gloomy eyes swept at the crowd. "Well, it's impossible to leave. I dare to conclude that the boy must be nearby."
"Lord Situ, I don't think it's that simple." The middle-aged man said.
"Oh?" Situ Qi was slightly surprised and asked with great interest, "Black Hawk, what do you want to say?"
The man named Black Hawk first had a meal and then said, "Lord Situ, we have been tracking according to the traces left by his boy these days, but if you think about it carefully, we seem to be led by the nose, and finally we didn't find the target, even the boy's figure. I didn't see it."
"What do you mean?"
"I think there must be someone who is secretly helping the boy and deliberately creating fake clues for us, and his purpose is naturally to delay time and give the real goal a chance to escape." Black Hawk said what he thought, and everyone behind him also showed a sudden understanding.
Situ Qi narrowed his eyes, as if he were thinking about something. After a few breaths, he nodded and said in a low voice, "From now on, let's not follow the traces. I don't believe that I can't find that stinky boy."
"Yes, Lord Situ." Everyone agreed in unison, but their tone seemed a little weak.
Black Hawk looked embarrassed. He thought for a little and said, "Lord Situ, you see, the brothers haven't closed their eyes for a few days and nights. It's almost night, you see?"
A trace of displeasure flashed on Situ Qi's face. Looking at the listless people, he nodded slightly, "Okay, let's take a rest for a night first! Black Hawk, you arrange people to take turns to watch the night.
Everyone was immediately overjoyed, and Black Hawk quickly hugged his fist and promised, "Yes, Lord Situ."
Black Hawk began to assign tasks. Unknowingly, in a dark corner, Xia had listened to the dialogue between Situ Qi and the other people.
"It seems that Blue Dream is really helping me." Jiang Xia said secretly, and then a trace of chill gushed out of his clear eyes. Through the deep woods, the murderous intention permeated from the bottom of his heart, "Hey, I'll ask for some interest for my grandfather and father first."
===.
"Goo, goo." The night in the woods is quiet and long. The calls of unknown birds and beasts and all kinds of nocturnal animals come around, and the birds sing more quietly. In this calm and comfortable night, there are all kinds of unknown dangers.
Situ Qi and his party made a fire in the open space, and the dry firewood branches crackled. From time to time, a few moths that put off the fire fell in and finally turned into a charred dead object.
After several days of fatigue, Situ Qi was also drowsy. More than a dozen of his men found a place to snore. 100 meters away, Black Hawk assigned one person to the vigil in four directions, and the most basic safety measures still had to be implemented.
The air was a little hot. Situ Qi's eyes narrowed, and his deep fatigue was transmitted to the nerves through his body. The last eye gap was also tightly closed, and he was already sleeping against the trunk of the tree.
At this time, the crisis came quietly. The disciple of the Situ family, who was on the vigil, shrugged his eyelids, and a cool breeze blew and couldn't help but be excited. I yawned deeply, and I couldn't help but feel a little urine. The firelight in the distance faintly projected out, and the vigil disciples walked under a tree and untied their belts.
A hot wave flashed, "Oh!" The man fell to the ground without any warning, revealing a red line on his neck, which became thicker and thicker, and finally turned into red blood flowing in the soil. Until his death, he didn't understand how he died.
Jian Xia looked at the Situ family's disciple calmly and muttered, "If you want to blame, you are from the Situ family!" As soon as the figure moved, the thin young master's figure then swept away in another direction.
The quiet killing was about to go on. In a blink of an eye, all the disciples of the four-way vigil turned into a cold corpse. Perhaps because of Situ Qi's appearance in person, the strength of the four people killed was not very high. Coupled with the sneak attack, General Xia did not disturb anyone.
===.
Black Hawk assigns a vigil every two hours. Of course, he and Situ Qi don't have to go. After two hours, the disciples of the previous round will come back to wake up their disciples, and then they can rest. They all know this arrangement, but there is another person who knows.
The steady footsteps slowly approached the fire. Situ Qi and Black Hawk's eyelids moved slightly, but they did not open. In the eyes of the two of them, it was nothing more than the disciples of the vigil who came to change the guard. And the other disciples were still sleeping soundly, and they didn't notice that someone was approaching at all.
"Cough, the post has been changed." The voice was very low, as if it had been deliberately lowered, but no one would doubt it. The thin figure gently walked to the sleeping disciples, and a pair of clear eyes stopped on Situ Qi and Black Hawk on the other side, 30 or 40 meters away. With their strength, I'm afraid someone will find out as soon as they get close.
"Oh, I've changed my job." The sound this time was obviously louder than just now. At the same time, a cold light crossed the throat of a sleeping disciple, and the blood was quietly sprayed out, and then the body twitched on the ground. Situ Qi and Black Hawk's eyelids touched twice, but they didn't open them. Who would think that it was not their own people who were close to them?
And the low voice was replaced by dissatisfaction and complaint, "Get up, get up, it's your turn." "Oh!" Another sleeping disciple was taken away. Every time the voice fell, a disciple died. This is not to ask people to change posts, but to deliberately use sound to cover up the sound of people's skin and flesh being cut open.
In a blink of an eye, I urged several times, and no one answered, "Oh, forget it. I'm really unlucky. I'd better go back and be on duty for another two hours!" In a helpless tone, the footsteps really faded away, and then disappeared in the distance.
The night was still quiet, the fire had crackled, and there was a strong smell of blood in the air. Situ Qi frowned and suddenly felt that something was wrong. He suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils shrank tightly, and saw more than a dozen of his men who had lost their breath. Blood flowed all over the ground and was greedily absorbed by the soil.
"Black Hawk!" Situ Qi roared angrily and sat up the sleeping Black Hawk in fear.
"Lord Situ, what's the matter?" Before he finished speaking, Black Hawk was stunned by the scene in front of him. His brain was blank. No wonder he smelled a pungent smell. It turned out that the "sleeping" next to them were all dead people.
"It's him. It must be him." The black eagle's face was pale and remembered the low voice he heard in his sleep.
Situ Qi's face was extremely gloomy and terrible. His eyes were full of anger and resentment, and two words came from his throat, "Jiang Xia."
===.
Jing Xia has gone far away and killed people under the eyes of Situ Qi and Black Eagle. It can't be said that they are too stupid, but that Xia is too beautiful and successfully deceived Situ Qi. Who would have thought that Xia would suddenly counterattack, and he pretended to be a disciple of the vigil to approach everyone.
Situ Qi and Black Hawk did hear the noise, but the two of them didn't expect that Xia would be so bold. It was a gamble. Obviously, Xia won. If Situ Qi had opened his eyes at that time, the ending would have been difficult to expect. Without being very sure, General Xia did not attack Situ Qi, but this time it is enough for Situ Qi and Black Hawk to remember for a lifetime.
It is also because of this incident that Situ Qi is more determined to remove General Xia. Both the potential and the plot of the other party should not be underestimated.
