"The ever-burning lantern in the Star-Zhaing Tower has been immortal for four hundred years and has always been bathed in divine grace. Over time, it has raised the lantern spirit." Bai Ziqi brought the lantern spirit on her fingertips closer to the ground. "It is the natural nemesis of sinister evil spirits. It hates evil as much as it hates evil.
.”
The ground suddenly ignited with white flames.
The official standing nearby jumped away quickly, but the flame had no heat and was not scalding.
Immediately afterwards, the lantern flew outwards.
Wherever it passes, a small ball of light white flame will be left on the ground.
"It will follow the evil breath." Bai Ziqi took the lead, "Let's go, this breath should be left by Cheng Yu."
Everyone followed the traces left by Bai Yan and walked out, and sure enough they were heading towards the back mountain. There was a cliff here with a drop of about twenty feet (nearly seventy meters). It was not high but very steep, almost at an angle of seventy degrees.
All the officials were coming on horseback, so they definitely couldn't jump down directly.
He Lingchuan immediately said to them: "Go down the mountain the way we came, follow us as soon as possible."
The lantern spirit had already floated to the halfway point of the cliff, waiting for no one at all. Fortunately, the white flames along the way were very conspicuous, and the officials could follow the marks to find them after they came down the mountain.
Bai Ziqi and He Lingchuan were not worried about going down the mountain at all.
Their mounts can almost go straight up and down.
The spiritual deer were more cautious, while the bighorn blue sheep almost bounced all the way down, as if they were flying through the clouds.
After just three consecutive jumps, it reached the ground faster than the lantern landed.
You must know that its footholds are all dark gaps in the cliffs. Some of them seem to be impossible to get down, but it jumps so happily.
After landing, the blue sheep shook its head proudly and kicked its hooves again.
Look, look, what is practical!
It can also understand human speech, but it is not willing to be compared to the noble and cold spirit deer.
Bai Ziqi rode the deer down to the ground, and the two riders followed the lantern spirit and ran forward.
There were footprints on the ground, and the white flames fell in the footprints. As soon as it was illuminated, He Lingchuan saw the strangeness of the footprints:
"It's not hoof prints. They weren't riding horses." The footprints were like plum blossoms, wide open with claw marks on the tips. "Well, they were wolf footprints."
He used to hang out with rock wolves, so he knew exactly what the wolf's footprints looked like.
Bai Ziqi immediately said: "Cen Boqing released the wolf puppet to ride on, no wonder he can escape along the cliff."
Otherwise, if the two people jumped off the cliff in a hurry, how could they have a horse to take them?
Looking at the direction of the footprints, they ran towards Yaohu Lake. He Lingchuan immediately said: "If they escape into the lake, we will be in trouble."
Water is the best barrier. The magical powers and consciousness of land creatures are basically unable to penetrate the barrier of water.
Yaohu Lake is very large, at least more than 20,000 acres. If these two guys got into the water, who knows where they would get out of the water weeds and get ashore?
Obviously Cen Boqing's wolf puppet is also very fast. Bai Ziqi and the two have not seen the fugitive's back until they have been chasing him.
The short mountain was not far from the lake, so they had to speed up.
Bai Ziqi took out a golden-red jade box, which looked like a duck egg powder box commonly used by girls. He picked out two pinches of silver powder from it and sprinkled it on both horses.
With a "pop" sound, He Lingchuan could feel that the bighorn blue sheep was obviously speeding up.
It's like Sixty Miles directly mentioned Eighty Miles, with a strong push-back feeling.
"Good stuff! What is this?"
Bai Ziqi smiled: "The wind technique is nothing but a small skill."
His technique can cause the mount or character to be surrounded by the breeze, pushing it forward, which not only removes part of the weight, but also reduces the oncoming wind resistance. It is a very practical skill for traveling.
The best thing is that it has no side effects on the recipient.
Unlike the wind drill beast's own collision talent, although it can charge in a short time, it will put a lot of burden on one's own physical strength.
"Saw!"
The faint light between heaven and earth illuminated two figures running quickly in front of them.
As expected, the two fugitives were running on big wolves.
This so-called puppet wolf is smaller than the rock wolf in He Lingchuan. It has a big frame but is thin, but it is more than enough to carry a person. Its eyes are twinkling, and its fur is dry and dull.
Strictly speaking, this is a wolf corpse driven by dead souls, but it has been processed so that the body will not decay.
The distance between pursuit and escape is only thirty feet.
Bai Ziqi got angry and shouted: "Cen Boqing, stop it, I am the envoy of the capital of Lingxu City!"
Cen Boqing in front heard the sound and turned around, and was shocked when he saw Bai Ziqi.
The special envoy from Lingxu City has arrived, but he is with He Xiao!
That's Du Yunshi, the aide of the gods! Who among those hanging around in Lingxu City doesn't know their identities, their methods, and what they represent!
At this moment, Cen Boqing was so frightened that his body stiffened.
This was an uncontrollable subconscious reaction, and even the puppet wolf sitting under the two men slowed down.
Cheng Yu on the side was shocked: "Hey, do you want to die?"
There was a lake in front of him, and he was about to escape, but the pursuers behind him were getting closer and closer. Why not make him anxious?
Bai Ziqi shouted again, full of majesty: "If you don't stop, I will be punished severely!"
Unexpectedly, it would have been better if he didn't say this. As soon as he shouted it out, Cen Boqing shuddered and his mind suddenly cleared.
From the time Lu Dutong shouted and led his troops to attack Cen's mansion, he knew that Uncle Wu had confessed.
However, as long as Uncle Wu died unexpectedly, Prince Yue might not be able to sue him based on just a piece of testimony. So he tried to escape.
Unexpectedly, the special envoy from Lingxu City has arrived, and it seems that he may have interrogated Uncle Wu.
Then it's over for him, he can't retract his confession, and he can't escape his guilt.
After being captured, he could not escape death. Cen Boqing shouted: "Mr. Cheng takes action!"
In fact, without his instructions, Cheng Yu had already taken action in advance.
He doesn't care what he does, and those who hinder his escape are enemies.
The curse master threw a palm-sized puppet into the sky with all his strength. The latter was more than six feet above the ground before it transformed into a green-turbaned warrior more than ten feet tall and accelerated down!
He Lingchuan's two cavalry were accelerated by the wind technique, and they were thirty feet away in an instant, just at the feet of the green scarf warrior.
He Lingchuan saw this guy's big feet stepping on his forehead, and slapped the blue sheep's horns: "Crash!"
The sheep had been following him for a while and was not stupid enough to think that he wanted to hit the green scarf warrior. Hearing this, he immediately activated the bell hanging around his neck.
Bai Ziqi saw this person turn into an afterimage on horseback, and instantly crossed the distance of fifteen feet in front of him!
This is the magical function of the bell that General Ling gave to the blue sheep, which can borrow the talent of the wind drill beast in a short period of time.
Immediately afterwards, the green scarf warrior suddenly landed on the ground, causing a cloud of dust to fly, and the ground shook so hard that it was impossible to stand.
It seems that its weight is no lighter than He Lingchuan's golden-armored bronze general.
But He Lingchuan was already behind it and continued to chase the two fugitives.
Ling Deer did not have this talent. Bai Ziqi patted it on the head. The big deer flicked its hooves, as if it had not even touched the ground, but then it jumped two feet away, its movements were particularly graceful.
How could an opponent with such a thick body and slow movements trap Linglu?
Without Bai Ziqi's orders, Linglu would pass it and pursue it.
Unexpectedly, the Qingjin Rikishi suddenly disintegrated and turned into a large group of small black things.
It is said that it is small, but that is relative to the individual of the Blue Turban Rikishi. In fact, each of these things is about the size of a goose egg, and looks like a beetle, but its body is mighty, its shell is shiny black, and its upper jaw is like a stag's antlers.
Like a pair of sharp scissors, half an inch long and covered with fine teeth!
He Lingchuan looked back and was startled.
Isn't this a stag beetle?
With a pair of scissors on his forehead, he shows off his power to everyone. No matter how naughty the kid in Blackwater City is, he won't want to mess with this kind of thing - anyone who has his fingers cut and bleeds twice will have a long memory.
The problem is that the stag beetles in Blackwater City are only the size of peanuts. These are upgraded and larger versions. With a click of the sharp scissors on their jaws, you can cut off even your toes.
Looking around, there are at least 20,000 of them.
The most egregious thing is that their shells are hard and they are not afraid of swords, guns, water and fire, and they ignore the protective aura.
It turns out that the appearance of the green scarf warrior is just a cover, and the puppet is actually an insect nest. Normally, the stag beetles disguise themselves as human beings under the control of the insect king and can run and jump. Only at critical moments do they reveal their true colors.
Bai Ziqi's situation was more terrifying than poking a hornet's nest. The stag beetles roared and pounced on their prey, covering the ground.
He Lingchuan felt his scalp numb at the sight, threw out a medicine bag, and sped up to chase the fugitive in front.
That kind of medicine bag is made of wicker sticks to repel insects and ants, and it is very effective. In reality, He Lingchuan also prepared a few bags according to the prescription, so that he would not be bitten while walking in the wilderness.
The medicine pack fell to the ground, accurately exploding a burst of yellow mist among the insects.
After that, he didn't care anymore.
With his famous name, Duyunshi certainly has the ability to protect himself, right?
He doesn't need to worry too much.
The lakeshore loomed in front of him, but after the blue sheep collided three times in succession, the distance between him and his prey was shortened to within twenty feet.
He Lingchuan aimed at the big wolf under Cen Boqing and struck directly with the Fusheng knife.
The wolf puppet is very nimble and can be avoided in a flash.
Of course, the Fusheng knife made a sharp turn and flew far away, seemingly without a trace.
Cen Boqing was filled with panic and kept looking back to observe Bai Ziqi's actions. As a result, the Fusheng knife detoured from the side and attacked insidiously from the blind corner of his vision.
The warg suddenly became lame, lost his balance, and fell to the ground.
The Fusheng knife chopped off one of its hind legs.
The only one who was still running for his life was Cheng Yu.
His face was as golden as paper, and he didn't know if the injury had recurred. At this time, he turned back and glanced at He Lingchuan, and suddenly shouted: "Fall!"
The ground beneath the Bighorn Sheep's feet suddenly collapsed and turned into a swamp.
Looking at Cheng Yu again, the short staff in his hand always touched the ground with its tail, silently turning the road where the warg passed into a mud puddle.
Spellcasters are also magicians. As long as they use the right magical power at critical moments, even simple spells can save lives.
No matter how capable the blue sheep can jump, its hooves still need a fulcrum. At this time, it is stuck in the quagmire and cannot get out. He Lingchuan had no choice but to jump up from the sheep's back and spread out his body skills to chase after it.
But Cheng Yu was only five feet away from the lake shore. At the same time, he stretched out his hand into his arms, obviously there was still something to follow.
Then two feet, one foot...
Just as he was about to jump into the lake, a large white fireball suddenly hit him in front of him, with a diameter of at least three feet.
As soon as it hit the ground, it exploded with intense white light.
When a bright light suddenly bursts out in the dark night, a normal person's first reaction would definitely be to turn around to avoid being blinded.
