This time, Niu Youdao's group did not set off alone, but joined Fuhua's group.
The reason Niu Youdao gave everyone was that he also wanted to find out why his group had no results, and wanted to see how others were doing and compare it with his own group, so that everyone would not misunderstand him.
The reason is perfect, everyone has nothing to say, and naturally they have no objection...
The crowd dispersed again, out of sight of others. Chao Jing immediately paused and landed on a protruding grass hill in the swamp.
Two Ten Thousand Beast Sect disciples followed him down. Seeing him looking around, Xu Huo immediately asked: "Master, what's wrong?"
Chao Jing raised his chin slightly in one direction and said, "The route forward will be slightly changed."
Xu Huo was surprised: "Didn't you follow the planned route?"
Chao Jing: "It doesn't matter if you take a little more detour. It will be like this from today on. In addition, from today on, you must be more vigilant when searching. If you find someone approaching, you must call the police immediately."
The two Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciples looked at each other. Since last night, Elder Chao had obviously become more vigilant. He told them last night that if anyone approaches, no matter who it is, they must alert him immediately.
As everyone knows, Chao Jing has been aware of the danger since he said those words to Niu Youdao yesterday, and is worried that Niu Youdao will kill him, especially since Niu Youdao is hanging out with Fuhua's foursome again today.
However, he has Niu Youdao's handle in his hand. As long as he does not give him a chance to make a sneak attack, he will not be afraid no matter how many people Niu Youdao brings over.
What he needs to guard against now is an accident, and he must not let Niu Youdao find an opportunity to strike.
Today's Niu Youdao is not the Niu Youdao of the early years. He has indeed gathered a huge force without knowing it. No elder of the big sect dares to underestimate him, so Chao Jing has to guard against it.
After explaining the matter clearly, Chao Jing led the people away from the planned direction...
The journey of the three people from Wanshoumen was as usual, there was no risk, but the gains were as usual, very little.
When they were marching into the middle of the afternoon, Xu Huo suddenly pointed in a direction and said, "Master, look!"
Chao Jing turned around and saw a group of demon foxes gathering on the grassy hill in the distance, as if they were feeding on something without noticing their arrival.
It was very rare to see dozens of demon foxes at once. Chao Jing was overjoyed, waved hello, and walked away first.
The three people quickly rushed to kill them, which seemed to have alerted the group of demon foxes. The demon foxes screamed and fled, rushing in one direction in groups.
Chao Jing, who was chasing after them from the air, vaguely noticed that something was wrong. The fox demons did not flee in all directions, nor did they get into the swamp, but instead flew across the swamp.
But just as the three people fell, the swamp mud water below seemed to shake in a large area, followed by a loud splashing sound, and countless tentacles jumped into the air from all directions, surrounding the three people who fell down from all directions.
There were also a large number of demon foxes clinging to the tentacles, which quickly surrounded them. The three of them fought hard to break through, but found that the tentacles this time had unusual toughness and were difficult to break.
Seeing that he was in trouble, Chao Jing suddenly raised his foot and stepped on a disciple, using his strength to fly into the air again. Then when he looked up, he saw three people appearing at the top of the tentacles. How could there be people? Chao Jing was quite surprised!
The three people above were seen grinning ferociously, and they took action at the same time, working together to attack Chao Jing who was rushing from below, forcing Chao Jing to fall down again.
Unable to break through the gap in time, the last ray of light closed, and the surrounding area fell into darkness. One could feel the clustered tentacles twisting and curling to oppress the space where the three of them were.
The three of them attacked frantically, trying to open the gap. The tentacles that could be retracted quickly became thicker and thicker.
Countless demon foxes emitted a hazy light, clinging to their tentacles and wagging their tails.
The twisted and shrinking behemoth was like swallowing a demon, carrying a large number of demon foxes and quickly submerging into the swamp below.
The restless swamp quickly returned to calm, and muffled sounds could be heard coming from the ground from time to time...
In the evening, the scattered people met again at the next gathering place.
When counting the harvest, Niu Youdao and the others still found nothing. This time the situation was different. Niu Youdao and the others mainly observed and learned this time and did not take action.
Niu Youdao looked very emotional, "This time following Fuhua and the others, they did see demon foxes from time to time. It seems that it is really because of my clothes. My group is confident about tomorrow's harvest."
Everyone just laughed or said a few words of encouragement, and there was nothing else they could say.
It was getting dark, and there was still a group of people who hadn't come back. Quan Taifeng asked strangely: "Why haven't Chao Jing and the others come back yet?"
Niu Youdao said with a smile but not a smile: "It's probably because of the clothes. I can't help but feel embarrassed that I haven't achieved anything yet. I want to work harder."
Many people laughed and were very curious. They were going to wait for Chao Jing to come back and ask him if a piece of clothing really has such a big impact?
For the time being, he could only wait. Niu Youdao, who was sitting cross-legged, calmly took out a stone from the grass on the side, took out the leaves rolled in the stone, and checked the leaves on the leaves when no one was paying attention.
handwriting.
It was a message sent by the Fox Clan in advance. The content above showed that Chao Jing and the others had fallen into the hands of the Fox Clan.
Even if he didn't see the news and Chao Jing and others still didn't return, Niu Youdao knew that the Fox clan should have succeeded.
In this deserted place of death, he could contact the Fox Clan at any time. The Fox Clan attacked Chao Jing and the others, so naturally he passed the news to the Fox Clan.
After he returned to the Holy Realm from the outside world, he had no intention of attacking Chao Jing so quickly, but Chao Jing's emotions seemed to be out of control and became more and more outrageous.
He originally planned to endure it, after all, having more manpower at this time is not a bad thing, and maybe there will be places that can be used in the future, but Chao Jing wanted to seek death himself and insisted on changing clothes with him.
There will be no problem with the clothes by then, but it is Niu Youdao who has the problem? Niu Youdao would not let Chao Jing bring back such information in public, nor would he let Chao Jing, who had been verified, force him to confess anything.
After reading it, the leaves shattered into pieces in Niu Youdao's hands, and he took out a manual map from his sleeve to see how to get to the location left by the Fox Clan.
The night was getting deeper and Chao Jing had not come back yet. Shen Yidu suddenly said: "Is something happened to Chao Jing and the others?" When he said this, he glanced at Niu Youdao.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all had the same guess.
Niu Youdao put away the manual and asked: "How about everyone go and look for it?"
Shen Yidu: "It's dark. How can we find it in the endless swamp? Let's wait a little longer. I hope they are delayed by something. If something happens, there will be no way to find it in this swamp. Not even the body can be found.
, will be swallowed up by the swamp. If it doesn’t come back by the time of dawn, there will be no need to look for it again.”
Everyone was silent. It was indeed true. It was indeed difficult to leave any traces in this swampy land. The muddy water could easily erase all traces.
Everyone was quite quiet, except for the occasional crackling and popping sound of firewood.
Until late at night, Chao Jing and others were still not seen back. Everyone estimated that something had probably happened and they probably wouldn't be able to come back.
Many people glanced at Niu Youdao who was sitting cross-legged and meditating with his eyes closed from time to time, and they all vaguely suspected that Chao Jing's disappearance was related to Niu Youdao.
It's hard not to doubt it. Yesterday Chao Jing was rude to Niu Youdao, and the next day Chao Jing disappeared. Is it a coincidence?
Especially Shen Yidu, he knew that Niu Youdao wanted to kill Chao Jing, so he went out of his way to check Niu Youdao's tone last night and asked Chao Jing if he had angered him?
This incident made everyone secretly frightened. If Niu Youdao really did it, Chao Jing could be solved if he wanted to. This ability is not small!
Some people couldn't sit still. Lang Jingkong stood up, walked to Fuhua and sat down, and asked in a low voice: "Is Chao Jing's disappearance related to Niu Youdao?"
Fuhua knew what he was thinking and whispered back: "I know what you are thinking, but this time you are really thinking too much. He has been following us today and has never left. There is no chance to attack Chao Jing. If Chao Jing is really What happened to me should be due to other reasons, and it was indeed not his fault."
Lang Jingkong: "Isn't it you who joined forces with him?"
"What are you thinking about?" Fuhua rolled her eyes, she really couldn't explain this matter clearly.
After that, other elders except Niu Youdao, all came to Fuhua to talk. Fuhua was speechless. She knew that a group of people had misunderstood Niu Youdao, but they still couldn't explain it clearly. She felt aggrieved for Niu Youdao. of……
At dawn, Chao Jing and others still didn't show up. Everyone knew that something must have happened.
When everyone met again to discuss the next gathering place, Niu Youdao said: "I suggest that we go find Elder Chao's whereabouts."
Quan Taifeng sighed and said: "Brother, Elder Shen is right. If something happens to this damn place, there is no need to search anymore. It will be difficult to find any traces! If something happens to this place, even if it doesn't happen, you will not die. , it also means that he was seriously injured and didn’t even have the ability to come back, so how could he escape the vicious hands of the demon fox?”
Niu Youdao: "How about this, you continue to hunt the demon fox, and our group goes to find Chao Jing and the others."
Shen Yidu waved his hand, "It's really not necessary. It's useless to look in this damn place."
Niu Youdao: "You don't have to look for it, but I have to look for it! Do you think I don't know? I'm afraid you all suspect that I did it."
Shen Yidu chuckled and said, "Brother, you are overthinking it. Fuhua has proven that it was not you who did it."
"It sounds nice. I asked Fuhua, but you are still doubting me. I will try my best to search and try to find Chao Jing, otherwise I can't explain this matter. Okay, that's it, I'll give it a try for a while. I may not be able to come back soon, so let's first discuss a meeting place in case I don't come back in time." Niu Youdao had already made up his mind.
He insisted on it, and no one could do anything to him, so they had no choice but to make do with it.
After the matter was finalized, Niu Youdao took Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie back to where Chao Jing and others went yesterday.
When everyone standing by the mountain forest and swamp watched, Shen Yidu suddenly turned around and asked: "Fuhua, is it really not his fault?"
Fuhua sneered: "I said no, but you don't believe it. Since you don't believe it, what else do you have to ask? And you three, even if I tell you to do it, what will happen? Do I need to lie to you? I have to. Is it interesting to force him to prove himself?" The second half of the sentence was said by Chao Lang Jingkong, Duan Wuchang and Hong Gaitian.
Not long after leaving here, Niu Youdao threw away Qin Guan and Ke Dingjie, on the grounds that the three of them had greater hope of spreading out and searching.
His real purpose was to run to the place designated by the Fox Clan.
