The sky was completely dark. Looking up, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse in the night sky. Standing on the side of the stones below the top of the mountain, Xia Yuxin looked down at the bottom of the mountain and could see a layer of silvery jungle covered with the wind. The mountain wind blew through the leaves and shook the leaves, reflecting the faint moonlight, like the scales on the water surface, and it looked very gorgeous.
"What a nice view..."
"Yes, I just don't have the mood to appreciate it now."
Fang Shi said with his eyes narrowed. Xia Yuxin glanced at Fang Shi, then looked at Li Shuya who was sitting on the stone and looking up at the two of them, and asked in a low voice: "Why are you in a hurry to run away? Is it a trap there?"
"Well...why, it should be a bait, and the trap is not a problem. Of course, if we are not alert, it may really become a trap."
Xia Yuxin blinked her eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable, she couldn't compare with her magic, and could not compare with her Feng Shui... That would be fine, she is a genius, but if she couldn't even compare with her wisdom, Xia Yuxin was really discouraged.
"Then how did you see it? Are you guessing? And how do you know that these people are chasing us?"
"Look at the other side of the situation, think about it, if your purpose is to chase those three people, is it necessary to forge the scene to erase your own traces after killing them? With that skill, why are you not clean and destroying the corpse? "
Xia Yuxin thought that this analysis made sense. If it was for the sake of killing people, it would be more straightforward to destroy corpses and traces. Moreover, there are wild mountains, wild mountains, high forests. It is really easy to bury a few dead people, and they don’t lack time. In fact, they spent a lot of time to eliminate traces.
"What if they were just encountering a battle? The identities of those three people are probably not simple."
"Well, that's right. Judging from the things that the three people dressed and carried, those three people may be fugitives or something. It's hard to say whether they have ever had contact with each other. If they have been in contact with each other, it's in line with what I just mentioned. If it's an encounter... can you explain the purpose of their forgery on the scene?"
"This...maybe it is to clear the relationship..."
"Well, it's barely reasonable, but how do you explain the traces of torture left on the scene?"
"This... traces of torture? Are there any?"
"Yes, there are too many scratches on the corpse, and it's hard to imagine why they can survive the attack of mountain ants for so long unless someone controls the intensity of the attack."
Xia Yuxin suddenly realized that by putting together these clues, she could indeed get such an inference. If the attacker had tortured the dead, then the purpose of their last corpse to forge the scene was obviously to attract some people. No matter how they thought about this, some people should be their own party.
"So, they stayed at the scene just to wait for us to find out, and then they ambushed or followed us who left traces to chase us? But they were not nearby."
"One may be because they are afraid of being noticed by us, they are far away, and the other they need to chase forward to see if we are ahead. When they confirm that we are not in front, they will immediately return to wait near the corpse, or they have divided their troops and a tail is following behind our butts."
Xia Yuxin felt a little nervous and looked at Fang Shi in surprise: "Then you are still staying here..."
Fang Shi looked down at the jungle at the foot of the mountain and smiled and said, "First of all, I asked Jingzhong to go away separately and try to mislead them. If someone monitors them nearby, they will lose sight of each other and delay their actions. In addition, we do not have to escape. In terms of strength, we may be much stronger than the other party, but the other party has the advantage of people and places, so we need to further reduce their advantages."
"I understand, let's choose the battlefield!"
Fang Shi nodded with a smile: "That's right, let's choose the right battlefield."
"So, you asked Brother Lou to set up a suspicion array to gain time, and we need to find a suitable battlefield, which is here?"
"Yes, it's dark now that you may not be able to see it. If it's daytime, you will find that the mountains and valleys here form a natural Feng Shui bureau, Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing Hearts. The one we chose is the "heart" of Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing Hearts. At night, the core of this Feng Shui bureau will become the focus of the impact of the Yin Evil Qi, and it is here to be foolish. I just arranged the Star Bureau Qinglong Tail Suan here, which is the main battle and killing. If they come, it will be a good end."
Fang Shi didn't say that Xia Yuxin didn't feel it yet. After Fang Shi Huacai finished speaking, a gust of wind blew, the sea of trees rustled like raging waves, Xia Yuxin's black hair was flying, a murderous aura penetrated the bone marrow, and an inexplicable aura surged in his mind. This was indeed a place of evil!
Xia Yuxin looked at Li Shuya with some concern, but found that Li Shuya looked at Fang Shi with her shiny eyes curiously. After feeling it carefully, she found that a faint aura was surrounding him protecting him. It seemed that Fang Shi gave Li Shuya a protective magic weapon.
"Will they come?"
Fang Shi nodded: "It should be here. The question now is whether they can see our arrangement. If they keep following us for better opportunities, it will be a problem."
Xia Yuxin nodded and said angrily: "I don't know how I messed with them. Is it really a disaster?"
"Haha, be guilty of possessing a treasure, huh... Jingzhong is back."
Fang Shi turned on the light, shook it casually, then turned off the light, took two steps back and sat down.
"Yu Xin, the wind is strong, sit down and be careful of having a cold."
"oh..."
Xia Yuxin was stunned for a moment, then sat down after responding, but her eyes were secretly staring at Fang Shi. She was really nervous. This was the first time in life and death battle. Although she had fought with people in the past, it was all a battle with restrictions and rules. Today, it was a battle without rules, either you die or I live. The feeling was completely different.
Xia Yuxin was very strange. Logically speaking, Fang Shi, a guy who became a monk and went to the world, should be even more uncomfortable with this kind of thing, but why is he so calm now? On the contrary, he is more calm than himself, a backbone who has been carefully trained by the sect since childhood, which is unscientific!
Not long after, a sound came from the hillside, and Lou Jingzhong's figure and soon appeared in front of everyone. Xia Yuxin noticed that this location could be seen quite a long distance, and it was difficult to get close to this camp silently.
"Fang Shi... Why did you choose such a dead place?"
During the meeting, Lou Jingzhong was not breathing well. He asked, "There is a cliff behind this place, and there is no way out." If the other party can mobilize a large number of insects and snakes, they will definitely be trapped here. He didn't know that the place Fang Shi chose was indeed a dead place, and it was a dead place in the Feng Shui bureau, but this dead place was prepared for the other party.
"Stop it and die before you live." Fang Shi smiled and joked: "You can rest first and eat something, and say something slowly. This is the place I carefully selected. How about it? Have you found traces of the other party?"
"No. But..."
"Eat first, maybe the other party will arrive soon."
Lou Jingzhong looked at Fang Shi, sighed and took the biscuits handed over by Li Shuya, tore open the packaging bag and chewed it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Shi said the speculations and ideas he had just explained to Xia Yuxin. Lou Jingzhong was surprised to hear it. During this period, he stood up and watched for a long time. However, with his half-baked Feng Shui level, he would definitely not be able to see anything, let alone at night.
After eating, Lou Jingzhong was not at ease, so he went to the cliff behind to look at it for a while. After coming back, he sat for a while and then looked at the star-set piles arranged by Fangshi. His actions made Xia Yuxin nervous, and she couldn't sit still. She always held up the telescope and looked around, hoping to find something. This anxious waiting really made people feel uncomfortable.
Fang Shi was very calm, holding a few wooden beads and placing a star on the stone in front of him. Li Shuya looked curiously. In his opinion, these wooden beads were placed on the stone in an irregular manner, but they looked like a very mysterious feeling. It was vaguely, he seemed to be able to feel something from it, but after careful consideration, it seemed that there was nothing. This itchy feeling made people really crazy.
"Here you come!"
The first thing I found out was not Xia Yuxin who looked around with a telescope, nor Lou Jingzhong, where the cat had his ears stretched on the stone, but looked down at the square stone in the micro star bureau in front of me.
"Come? Where? How did you know?"
"The Star Bureau resonates, it has reached the foot of the mountain, four people...five people have appeared...you can hear the sound soon."
Fang Shi finished speaking, a strange voice rang out in the quiet forest.
"Tu tuk...tuk...tuk..."
"Deworming technique?!" Xia Yuxin exclaimed in a low voice.
Fang Shi stood up, but Lou Jingzhong said, "I'll go!"
Fang Shi looked at Lou Jingzhong and nodded: "The most sudden front in the northwest, you go there first, don't worry, go slowly, don't walk out of the rock pile, just a little disturbing him to perform the magic. The remaining things will naturally help us do. This time, let them taste what it means to carry a stone to hit their own feet."
Lou Jingzhong responded, turned around and left, and the figure who was rushing high and low was very agile, and disappeared into the forest in a short while.
Xia Yuxin thought for a while and said, "I can do it too."
"Well, I know, but there is no need. Besides, with two of us big men, you and a woman don't need to kill and set fire."
Xia Yuxin curled her lips. Fang Shi's sudden strength and the idea of a big man made Xia Yuxin feel strange. She seemed to have only felt the feeling of being protected and cared for by her elders. Now, Fang Shi also made her feel this way, but she didn't like this feeling, which made her feel weak.
Xia Yuxin turned her head and raised her telescope to look around. Fang Shi stood aside, looking at the tiny star field, and then looking at the dark woods. Her brows were slightly frowning, not knowing what she was thinking. (To be continued...)
