"How will you know if you don't try? If you can't find it, let's talk!" Chen Dasheng was not sure, but judging from the appearance of the divine mastiff, he should be somewhat sure. Since this guy is called a divine mastiff, he must have a nose.
It is also smarter than ordinary dogs.
After a while, Chen Dasheng saw the backs of Zhuang Shaoxian's group of people, who were quickly approaching the mountain in front. Chen Dasheng did not alert them and asked the Mastiff to slow down. After entering the mountain, the Mastiff relied on his professional skills to
Search started.
——
The mountain is huge, but there are only a few people. Zhuang Shaoxian and others took a net-casting route. After entering the mountain, they quickly dispersed and each person searched an area. Chen Dasheng didn't know how they were connected, but
, but that is none of your business.
The mountain is very gentle, but there is no road in the forest. The trees are lush and the grass is overgrown. The Mastiff roared, causing the birds and beasts in the forest to scatter in all directions.
Sniffing left and right, the Mastiff went around in circles, carefully identifying the various smells in the air. After confirming the direction, he ran straight out. When he encountered a place he was not sure about, he stopped again to confirm again.
It took a lot of time, but Chen Dasheng didn't bother. This was much better than the aimless search of Zhuang Shaoxian and others. They just followed the Mastiff without using their brains.
"Brother-in-law, there is someone in front!"
After running in the mountains for more than half an hour, the pace of the Mastiff gradually slowed down, passing through a mountain col and entering a forest. Nangong Chen, who was sitting on the back of the Mastiff, pointed forward and whispered to Chen Dasheng.
The Mastiff stopped and Chen Dasheng stood on tiptoe and jumped onto the treetop. Fifty or sixty meters ahead, there was a figure holding something in his hand and searching for it.
"It's the royal road!"
After setting up a pergola and taking a closer look, Chen Dasheng recognized that person, it was Wang Lu of the Wang family. After the three families joined forces, the nine people searched like a net, each choosing a different direction, but this area was searched by Wang Lu.
He jumped down from the tree. There were lush vegetation in the forest. Wang Lu was searching intently, but did not notice the arrival of Chen Dasheng and others.
The Mastiff didn't know whether he should continue moving forward. Obviously, Wang Lu blocked the way of the Mastiff. Nangong Chen whispered, "What should we do? Can we wait until he leaves before we go there?"
"I'll get him!"
Chen Dasheng thought for a moment and didn't know how far this place was from the ruins of the ancient mansion. If Wang Lu discovered something and informed others, it would not be fun.
"Da Sheng!" Nangong Chengfeng stopped Chen Dasheng and said, "Wang Lu is a poor man, it's best not to kill him!"
"rest assured!"
Chen Dasheng made an OK gesture to Nangong Chengfeng, and when Wang Lu's back was turned to him, he used Qing Kung Fu to escape like a ghost. Then, under the cover of the trees, he flew towards Wang Lu.
Wang Lu was only at the level of a fifth-level martial artist. He was far behind Chen Dasheng. At this time, his attention was all on the instrument in his hand, and he did not feel that danger was approaching him quickly.
"Whoosh!"
A strong wind broke through the air. Wang Lu was suddenly startled. He stood up straight and turned around. However, it was already too late. Chen Dasheng sprang out from behind a big tree and was already standing behind him.
When he got to a place five meters away, he pointed his breath and hit the sleeping point on Wang Lu's chest.
Wang Lu groaned, and then collapsed to the ground. He dropped the instrument in his hand, closed his eyes tightly, and fainted.
"Roar!"
Seeing Chen Dasheng's success, the Mastiff gave a low roar and ran directly over. The bushes in the forest split to both sides, and the Mastiff roughly opened an avenue.
"What is this?"
Chen Dasheng picked up the instrument that fell next to Wang Lu. There was a handle the size of a kitchen knife, with a palm-sized LCD screen attached to it. A long probe extended from the top of the screen, and the screen was covered with some weird things.
There are lines and some twinkling light spots.
Nangong Chengfeng said, "The portable geological detector can detect conditions within forty meters below the ground. If there is a tomb cavity, it can be imaged on the screen!"
"Oh, what a magical weapon!" Chen Dasheng shook his head and turned to look at Nangong Chengfeng, "Why didn't you say we would get two of them?"
"I originally wanted to bring it, but grandpa said it was not necessary!" Nangong Chengfeng shrugged, "Facts have proved that grandpa is right. This mountain is so big. We don't know when we will detect it with this thing.
But there are only three days!”
"This old man..."
Chen Dasheng shook his head and hesitated to speak. Three days were really short and it was useless to use this thing.
Nangong Chengfeng said, "This detector also has a function, similar to a walkie-talkie. If several machines know each other's frequency, they can share their locations and call each other. The three of them have joined forces, and others must have brought this machine."
"Well?"
According to what Nangong Chengfeng said, if Zhuang Shaoxian and others found that Wang Lu's position had not changed, they would definitely come to investigate. But if they took this thing away and showed them the way invisibly, this thing would still be
It's really hard to deal with.
"Hey, brother-in-law!" Nangong Chen had an idea and said to Chen Dasheng with a smile, "I have an idea. They will definitely call every once in a while. If they find that Wang Lu doesn't answer, they will definitely know that there is something going on here. We are in the woods.
Find a small animal in there, tie this thing to its body, and lead them to other places, then we can look for the ruins of the ancient mansion in a big way!"
"good idea!"
When Chen Dasheng heard this, an evil smile flashed across his face, "But you can't look for small animals. If you want to look for them, look for wild beasts. It's best to lure them into the tiger's cave!"
Nangong Chen's face trembled. His own thoughts were already dark enough, but he didn't expect Chen Dasheng to be even more dark.
Holding the detector, Chen Dasheng jumped on the branch again, looked around for a while, and then flew out. With good luck, after searching for a while, he found several forest wolves foraging in a forest. With strong force,
, directly captured one alive and tied the detector to its body.
I originally wanted to catch a bird, but the detector was heavy and couldn't be carried by ordinary birds, and big birds were not easy to catch, so I decided to settle for the next best thing. Forest wolves were also good. If we could lure those guys into the wolf den, the effect would be sure.
Not bad.
After driving away the wolves, Chen Dasheng smiled sinisterly and ran in the direction he came from. When he returned to the original place, Nangong Chengfeng had already hung the unconscious Wang Lu on the branch of a big tree.
"Lest he be eaten by wild beasts!" Nangong Chengfeng clapped his hands and said to Chen Dasheng.
Chen Dasheng nodded and didn't care. Wang Lu was Feifei Wong's brother. Feifei Wong had told Chen Dasheng about Wang Lu's experience last night. He was a poor man. Although he looked strong, he was an incomplete man. Chen Dasheng felt sorry for him from the bottom of his heart.
He was somewhat sympathetic, so he had no intention of killing him.
Without any obstruction, the three of them continued to move forward under the leadership of the Mastiff.
——
"Huh? Brother-in-law, what does this smell like? It stinks!"
The speed of the Mastiff increased significantly. After walking for more than two miles, they entered a flat lacquer forest. Nangong Chen sat on the back of the Mastiff and took the lead. He covered his nose before he had gone far.
A faint rotten smell hit his face, and Chen Dasheng's nose wrinkled slightly. It was a smell similar to that of dead mice, which made people feel nauseous. It was in sharp contrast with the fresh air in the forest.
"This forest is full of wild sumac trees, be careful not to run into them!" Nangong Chengfeng said, rubbing his nose.
Chen Dasheng nodded. The wild sumac tree is poisonous and can easily cause allergies. When I was a child, I went to the mountains to play and accidentally touched the wild sumac tree. I often felt like a big fat man the next day, with itching and pain all over my body. It was extremely uncomfortable. Although now
He was already a master, but the shadow of his childhood still lingered. When encountering this thing, Chen Dasheng consciously stayed away.
"Look, it turns out this thing is smelly!" Nangong Chen took a few steps forward, pointed at the ground and shouted to Chen Dasheng and the other two.
The two walked over and took a look. They saw broken bones and rotten flesh on the ground. They didn't know when they were left behind. They looked like the carcasses of some animals, but they were scattered. They seemed to have been torn apart by some ferocious beasts. The flesh on their bodies was still there.
Most of it has been eaten by wild beasts in the forest, and the rest is in a state of rot. Some places are covered with white bones, and the smell of decay still lingers, making people hide their noses.
