Lin Yi took out the map and looked at it, and decided to make an exception and drive all night. He had to get ahead of Meng Tong and others and reach the only way back to the Houshan Palace.
Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai's current situation is nothing more than two. Either the medicinal herbs have been robbed, or the medicinal herbs have not been snatched away and are still on the way to escape.
Regardless of the outcome, the two of them, Meng Tong and others will definitely return to the Back Mountain Palace before noon tomorrow, otherwise according to the words of the bald elder in the Back Mountain Palace, no matter who they are, the end will be the same.
A miserable death!
This is simple. Lin Yi only needs to hurry up and guard the only way before everyone else. Whether he meets Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai first or meets people like Meng Tong first, the problem can be solved.
As long as you have strong strength, no matter how complex the problem is, you can easily solve it.
He did what he thought of. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Lin Yi put the Sky Thunder Pig into the space of the jade pendant and set off immediately.
As I have said before, in this back mountain, even in this peripheral area with the lowest degree of danger, even for an early-stage foundation-building master like Lin Yi, it is extremely dangerous to move at night.
Not only will your perception be weakened and you will easily get lost, but you will also easily run into powerful spiritual beasts that you cannot see during the day. You must know that due to their nature, many spiritual beasts only come out at night to look for food.
To put it simply, facing the same spiritual beast in the early stage of foundation building, if Lin Yi is still 50% sure during the day, then at night, he may not even be 30% sure.
No matter how powerful the cultivator is, one thing that cannot be changed from beginning to end is that human beings are not nocturnal creatures after all. The night has always been on the opposite side of human beings.
Fortunately, the moonlight tonight is still bright, so Lin Yi will not lose his way halfway.
Along the way, he passed by several powerful spiritual beasts, including one as dangerous as the nine-tailed cloud leopard. However, in the end, Lin Yi avoided all of them without any danger.
Of course, even if you can't avoid it, there is no problem. There is still a spirit beast god named Guidong guarding the space of the jade pendant. Wouldn't it only take a matter of minutes to scare away these spirit beasts whose strength is only in the early stage of foundation building?
After walking quickly all night, Lin Yi finally arrived at his destination when the sky turned bright.
The place where he is at the moment is less than twenty miles away from the Back Mountain Palace. It is a rare open space outside the Back Mountain. The reason is that there is an ancient tree that is thirty feet high.
In the surrounding dense forest, the highest one is only ten feet tall. This ancient tree can be said to stand out from the crowd. Its huge crown blocks a large amount of sunlight, and naturally nothing can grow below, so it looks quite empty.
Standing on the tree canopy, an excellent view means that you can perfectly monitor everything around you, and this happens to be on the only way back to the Back Mountain Palace. What are the movements of other newcomers in Chongtian Pavilion and Xuanji Pavilion? Lin Yi
He couldn't control Bian, but at least the newcomers of Qingyun Pavilion who were thrown in this direction couldn't even think of slipping by under his nose.
Standing at Lin Yi's height and looking down. If one or two people acted more covertly, it might be possible to miss the past, but if Meng Tong and others acted in a group, it would be absolutely impossible.
After guarding for half an hour, just as Lin Yi expected, there was a dense commotion not far from below, which also startled a swarm of small birds.
Someone is approaching quickly, and there are quite a few of them!
Lin Yi observed attentively. Then the corner of his mouth turned into a playful arc. Judging from the movement, those people seemed to be heading towards him!
"Brother Xiao, you go first, I will give you the rear! Anyway, all the herbs on my body have been robbed. They can't do anything to me!" Qiao Hongcai followed Xiao Ran through the forest and suggested anxiously.
Unlike Lin Yi, who was released into the most dangerous area outside the back mountain, Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai's initial release point did not receive special care. At the beginning, both of them went relatively smoothly and collected a lot of herbs, but there was a problem.
It's also coming out here.
Their drop-off point was not far from the other newcomers. Just one day later, the two of them naturally met the other newcomers by chance, and then unsurprisingly, they were targeted by Meng Tong and others.
Just when they were on their way to Sanxikou to meet up with Lin Yi, Qiao Hongcai was the first to be ambushed. With his strength, he was unable to deal with the large number of Meng Tong's gang. All the herbs they had worked so hard to collect were snatched away, and he himself
He also suffered serious injuries.
If it hadn't been for the bald elder's repeated warnings not to cause harm to anyone, he might have become the first newcomer to die during the trial this time.
After the ambush was successful and Qiao Hongcai was scolded, Meng Tong and his gang turned to deal with Xiao Ran. Unexpectedly, Qiao Hongcai, who was following them, found Xiao Ran first, causing the ambush plan of Meng Tong and his gang to fail.
Breakout.
As Lin Yi had speculated before, the two of them did not want to implicate Lin Yi, so they decided to give up going to Sanxikou and instead try their best to escape towards the back mountain palace. As long as they could escape to the back mountain palace before being caught up by Meng Tong and his gang, then
Even if the trial ends, Meng Tong and his gang will no longer be able to snatch Xiao Ran's medicinal herbs.
Hence the current scene. The two of them were running wildly in front, while ten feet behind them, they were chasing Meng Tong and his gang.
Qiao Hongcai was injured to begin with, and Xiao Ran had already consumed a lot of his energy during the breakout. After this period of running with all his strength, his energy was about to be exhausted. If this continues, he might not be able to reach the back.
In the mountain palace, the two of them are about to fall first.
At this time, Qiao Hong made this suggestion, obviously because he was barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. Anyway, he had no medicinal herbs, and Meng Tong and others did not dare to kill him directly. If they could delay him for a while, they would
It's better than two people falling together.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ran gasped and vetoed: "No! Although they don't dare to kill you directly, if you are so bad for them, if you get angry, they may maim you and destroy your cultivation.
, I can’t let you take this risk!”
After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Qiao Hongcai was suddenly startled and felt fear in his heart.
Yes, although the trial stipulates that no one is allowed to kill, there is no rule that says that people cannot be crippled. If I were to cripple my cultivation and become a cripple from now on, then life would really be worse than death!
"Then what should we do? If we keep running like this, we will kill ourselves without them taking action!" Qiao Hongcai said anxiously. (To be continued...)
