On a starry night, Zhang Baoer ran quickly through the woods as a small animal. His eyes were very solemn, because when he went out to hunt just now, he actually saw a group of fully armed humans in the distance.
Without having to inquire, he knew that those people were here for him, because he saw the pavilion master surnamed Shan and the woman Le Yurou from a distance. These two people were simply haunted, and they were still there after more than ten days.
He never gave up the idea of killing himself.
The reason why he ran quickly was because he and the Unicorn were not very far away from those people, and the bonfire was still burning in the camp, and he was afraid that they would come after seeing the light of the fire.
Why should he be afraid?
Because his current strength is only equivalent to the early stage of ordinary spiritual beasts or the middle stage of golden elixir of ordinary humans, he cannot compete with those people at all, let alone the unicorn, which can only barely trot...
"Erha! Let's go!"
Wow!
Seeing that there was no one outside the camp, he felt relieved and quickly took out the leather bag from the space ring and used the water in it to put out the fire.
"Hoo ho!"
Although the one-legged horse could not speak human words, his wisdom had reached the level of a seven or eight-year-old child. He immediately nodded and walked over with Zhang Baoer's piano in his mouth.
Soon after, the two beasts, one large and one small, disappeared into the vast mountains and darkness.
The next afternoon, Le Yurou, dressed in military uniform, stared at the extinguished fire, with prominent veins on her forehead and cold eyes.
"Chase! Whoever finds the correct trace will be rewarded with 10,000 spiritual stones!"
Le Yurou hated the heavy rain. If it hadn't washed away the traces of the unicorn horse, she would have found Zhang Baoer long ago.
Now she was angry and frightened because he found a fire, which meant that Zhang Baoer's injury had improved. This was not good news for her.
…
"This is... Red City?!"
After being on the run for more than ten days, a small, shabby and uninhabited city appeared in front of Zhang Baoer. Before Zhang Baoer even got close to it, he recognized it as the 'Red City Behind Shuangdie Mountain', which had been captured by a pack of wolves sitting on the mountain.
That small town.
He had never been here, but he had heard a lot about the Red City. More importantly, he saw the word "red" on the half-collapsed city gate.
"We can't go any further! Change direction!"
His heart was suddenly startled, not counting the fact that the Unicorn turned northwest, but also deliberately left some unintentional traces on the road.
He was worried that Tang Tiantian and others would be hunted after going to Stone City and hid in the Western Wilderness under Shuangdie Mountain. If he continued to move forward, he would probably lead Le Yurou and the others there!
In the past ten days, the two of them have been traveling non-stop. Although their self-healing ability is very strong, their injuries have not recovered much. If they are caught up, they will be doomed.
He didn't know what these people could do. He clearly felt that he had gotten rid of them, but within half a day he would find that they were following him again.
If not, they would have found a secret place to hide instead of running around.
The next day, standing on the top of a large mountain, Zhang Baoer was overjoyed when he discovered that his pursuers appeared forty or fifty miles away, because the number of people did not seem to decrease, which meant that they had not divided their forces to go to the Western Wilderness.
Then, he stepped forward and continued to lead the one-horned horse forward - those people were monks, and the distance of forty or fifty miles was not that far, so they had to speed up their escape.
Time continued to pass, and before I knew it, it was more than ten days later.
On this day, Zhang Baoer listened to the rumbling sound and looked at the endless flow of the Nu River, with a complicated look on his face, because he found that he and the Typhonium would only have to walk a dozen miles to the west and they would be back where they met.
"Erha, let's go!"
Zhang Baoer shouted, jumped on the back of the unicorn horse, and let the unicorn horse gallop into the wind all the way, eager to return home.
At a certain moment, the vision suddenly opened up, and a large grassland appeared in front of them.
Suddenly, the unicorn's pace slowed down, and a look of sadness appeared in its eyes - the grassland is still there, but the group is gone!
Zhang Baoer knew its sadness and stretched out his little paw to scratch its scar-covered back.
"Hoo ho!"
The unicorn responded twice, quickened its pace again, and rushed into the prairie.
…
The unicorn walked sadly past the piles of bones of its kind, and then ran eagerly to a small valley in the grassland in the distance, where... there was nothing, only grass and desolation!
Sure enough, all its members were dead, and it was the last one.
Then, it started running wildly, running wildly, regardless of the fact that the newly healed wound burst again.
Zhang Baoer didn't stop it, he knew this guy was feeling uncomfortable.
However, just two hours later, he couldn't help it anymore!
"Er ha! Stop... no! Go to the right! Jump into the river!"
He was shocked because ahead was the end of the grassland, the wind blew from there, and he smelled the scent of humans!
He immediately realized that he had made another mistake. In order to let the unicorn go home, he forgot about the wide view of the grassland!
He was extremely disappointed with himself. He thought he had learned the lesson, but it turns out... he hadn't yet!
Those people must be Le Yurou and others, because the adventurers who come to Luan City generally don't come here to the prairie, they don't dare!
The situation is different for Le Yurou and others. Tens of thousands of golden elixir monks led by Yuanying can run rampant in this area.
Hearing Zhang Baoer's exclamation, the unicorn horse immediately turned around and ran towards the due north.
"stop!!!"
Sure enough, before they could run very far, the Shan Pavilion Master with a furious look on his face led his men and rushed out from the woods at the end of the grassland several hundred feet away.
Zhang Baoer wanted to retort, 'Is it useful to yell? I will stop? Who is the fool?', but when he opened his mouth, his eyes suddenly shrank, and his face suddenly became solemn.
"Where is Le Yurou?!"
He didn't see the snake-like woman, and he didn't believe that the woman wouldn't be there.
Sure enough, after a quick glance, he found that the master of Shan Pavilion had four to five thousand people, which meant that more than half of them were not here.
He didn't think that the missing people were still hiding in the woods. The reason was simple: there must be something wrong with the woman Le Yurou being away!
"Where on earth is she?!"
Zhang Baoer thought about it again and again, but still couldn't figure out where the woman would be.
Bang bang bang...
The one-legged horse was still running wildly, while he was lost in thought.
At a certain moment, he suddenly froze, and then murmured:
"Put yourself in someone else's shoes?! What... would I do?!"
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt that he had grasped the key to the problem.
"Although the grassland is not very big, it cannot be surrounded by four to five million people. Judging from the strong smell of sweat on those people's bodies, it means... they did not come in a hurry to intercept them, they have been waiting there for a long time.
!”
"She must know that it is impossible for me to go to the Three Kingdoms. The only way to survive is to leave, not to the north! That is deep in the Death Mountains, and I must go west! I went north from the south and then turned west, so... she
It shouldn't be in the east or south, it's in the northwest! It can't be in the due north direction, which is cut off by the river, besides
The grassland has a wide field of vision. She doesn't dare to reach the north unnoticed! And even if she goes there, it's useless. There are cliffs on both sides of the bank... Although, because 'I am the Demon King', she may think that I come from deep in the Death Mountains.
location, but she must not be in the north, but somewhere in the northwest! There must be people due east, but not many!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Baoer looked up at the sun in the western sky, patted the unicorn horse on the back with his little paws and said:
"Erha, go northeast! That direction!"
His plan is simple: attack in the east and attack in the west!
…………
The night came as promised, perhaps because there were few people here, so it seemed particularly dark.
That night, there were clouds in the sky and not many stars could be seen.
At about ten o'clock, the master of the mountain pavilion led more than 7,000 people to sweep across the grassland in a single line and arrived at the northern end of the grassland.
The closer they got to the mountain forest in front, the darker the face of the mountain pavilion master became. Just when they were only a hundred feet away from the edge, a torch suddenly lit up in front of them.
"Second uncle?!"
The young man who had been beaten by a group of residents in the chaotic city walked out of the torch pile and looked at the Shan Pavilion Master in shock:
"Those two beasts..."
"Shut up! Keep guarding here!"
The mountain pavilion master's face was as dark as water and he was in a very bad mood. He turned the saber-toothed tiger's head and shouted loudly:
"Follow the river and meet Yurou! Hurry!!!"
He didn't know where Zhang Baoer went, but he knew that there was a reason why his disciples forcefully left more than a thousand people at the other end. Looking at the situation now, those two beasts must have used some cunning means to escape
In their search, they most likely went west.
He doesn't know how much Zhang Baoer's injuries have healed and how much his strength has recovered. He doesn't care about Le Yurou's life or death. What he cares about is: Zhang Baoer can't live!
If his judgment is wrong, it doesn't matter! As long as Le Yurou is still alive before he gets there!
…………
Shan Pavilion Master was right, because Zhang Baoer and Unicorn Ma jumped into the river to the west. Under the cover of night and in the surging river, they successfully escaped Shan Pavilion Master and others.
Zhang Baoer originally thought that the unicorn could swim and was not afraid of the angry river - when they met, the guy just wanted to jump into the river and ran to the river desperately.
But... when they fell into the water, he discovered that he was wrong. This guy couldn't swim at all! The last time he wanted to jump into the river was because he was afraid of death and had no way to go!
Fortunately, the river is fast enough and it doesn’t need to be able to swim...
The waterway was difficult to navigate, but fortunately many of the unicorns had recovered from their injuries and had thick skin and thick flesh, so they could withstand the impact of jumping off the cliff into the water!
Zhang Baoer didn't look happy at all after escaping their search. He clung tightly to the unicorn horse's back and the piano fixed on its back with dense rattan.
The water this time is not as big as last time, but it is not small, and the flow is extremely fast. If it hits the rocks in the water... Not to mention the unicorn will be injured, even if it is in full strength, it will be a blessing and a blessing.
material!
As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly. Near early in the morning, Zhang Baoer's hair suddenly stood up, and his eyes were filled with shock and fear!
Huhuhu...
On the top of the cliff more than 20 feet high in the south, a line of hundreds of torches suddenly lit up. Under the light of the fire, Zhang Baoer saw that those without torches were holding bows with arrows on the bowstrings, and the arrows were pointed at him.
…
He also saw Le Yurou, standing expressionlessly downstream, on the top of the cliff a hundred feet away!
