Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 687 The Disappearing Troop

There was an eerie silence in the room.

Everyone was stunned.

That's 50,000 people! If you line up in two columns, you can pull out several miles from the beginning to the end, how can you just say no! ?

"Maybe they just didn't take the road of Huangtu Town...but went directly south from Baili Town into the mountain?" Shan Hui said after a while.

"Impossible." Jiulin immediately denied, "Only in our current position will there be a sinking gap in the southern mountains. If you pull out all the forests, you will find that Jiuyao Mountain is actually a high wall , It is very difficult to climb over from other places. If it is a monster like Sister Li, maybe it can be done, but for 50,000 people, it is definitely a dead end."

She has lived in Yuetai Villa for several years and is quite familiar with the surrounding area of ​​Baiyao Mountain. Any drug farmers or hunters who wanted to go into the mountains would go to Huangtu Town without exception. Even these veterans choose this way, let alone others.

"What about the site where they were stationed? Did you find anything?" Li asked.

"There is no sign of fighting or rioting. These people evacuated spontaneously." Mu Youhong shook his head, "There were no footprints on the dry land, and no traces of ruts, so they were reported as missing there. But they are not completely I found that some scattered wild fruits were found at the scene, which should be the wild jujube from Ganzhou. This thing tastes very astringent, and the meat also has a bitter taste. Generally, few people take the initiative to eat it unless..."

"Unless the rations are insufficient, wild fruits will be used to fill them up." Li continued.

"Exactly." Mu Youhong affirmed, "This may also explain why they attacked the city in Suzhou, but they just buried their heads in Ganzhou."

Because even if the small towns in Ganzhou are captured, they won't get much grain.

Their choice is to speed up the journey and arrive at the so-called "paradise outside the world" as soon as possible.

Li felt a sense of urgency.

She doesn't believe in the saying that there is no need to worry about food and clothing in the kingdom of heaven. With 50,000 people lacking logistical supplies, once the food and grass run out, it will not be so easy for Jinxia City to replenish it. No matter where the Black Gate Sect took the person, she must find the whereabouts of the person as soon as possible to avoid mass starvation.

"Let's set off tonight and rush to Baili Town." Li immediately made a decision, "Even if they disappear suddenly, we must at least find a way for them to disappear."

Others nodded one after another.

After all, the Baekje caravan is not a professional spy organization. Inquiring about street rumors and looking at the scene is the limit of the ability of traveling merchants. The clues they can't find may be another situation in the hands of professionals.

After reaching an agreement, the investigation team quickly moved into action. Li climbed up to the roof, set up the antenna, and used the audio device to tell Jinxia what he had heard, hoping that the rear would be ready for support. Afterwards, the group left the inn quietly and rushed to the two hundred and sixty miles overnight. Baili Town outside the land.

In the afternoon of the next day, Li and the others arrived at their destination—this is also the advantage of the Quan Yao team. As long as Wu Lie is sure that there is no one around, Shan Hui can carry Li and Jiulin to run wildly in the countryside at a far speed. Better than a galloping horse.

Everyone did not enter the town, but went directly to the camp of the Black Gate Sect.

It is about ten miles away from Baili Town. According to common sense, no matter whether they turn back the same way or go east to Huangtu Town, it is impossible to avoid the sight of passers-by on the road. Looking to the south, there are lush jungles and towering mountains. Due to the steepness of the mountains, you can even see a touch of gray on the top of the mountains.

Shan Hui circled around the abandoned camp and said with certainty, "The residual smell is still obvious. They didn't go east or west, but went south directly into the forest area."

"It seems to be so." Li frowned. As far as common sense is concerned, the south is a dead end, so naturally no one would consider them going there, so for the caravan, the Black Gate Sect would have disappeared in place. "Ulie, take a step first and look for their possible direction from the sky, and we will follow the scent behind."

"Understood, leave it to me!" Ulie spread his wings and flew towards the continuous mountains.

...

However, the development of the situation was beyond Li's expectation.

The smell suddenly faded after entering the mountain forest, and basically disappeared when it got close to the mountain wall, and it was difficult to provide effective clues.

After Wu Lie spun twice in a radius of 50 miles, he didn't get anything, so he could only return in vain.

At this moment, Li finally gave birth to a creepy feeling.

Fifty thousand people actually evaporated out of thin air!

"How is this possible?" Shan Hui showed an unimaginable expression, "The progress in the mountains is much slower than that outside. If they walked four or five days ago, it should be impossible to climb any mountains."

"No, even if they can turn over, they can't avoid Ulie's detection." Li calmed down and reconsidered the fact, "The broken branches and fallen bushes in the forest can prove that the Heimen Cult has indeed come here If they had the trick of transforming people out of thin air, they wouldn't have migrated all the way to Baili Town. Similarly, if they took so much pains to cross Suzhou, Leizhou and Ganzhou, if they just deliberately killed these 50,000 people, It's too uneconomical. What's more, there is Miss Luo in the team, it's impossible to sit and watch them—"

When she said this, she suddenly paused.

"By the way, Luo Qingqing is also in the team! If it's her, maybe she will leave some clues so that we won't be thrown away."

"It's possible." Shan Hui agreed, "But I didn't find anything special along the way. As for Master Luo's smell, it must be very different from when I left Jinxia."

"Let me think about it." Li pondered for a moment, then had a guess in his mind, "...No matter what, let's try it first."

She raised her tail and conceived the prototype of the shock technique sky thunder in her mind.

The long white tail is like an amplifier, spreading out her thoughts, causing ripples in the surrounding air. At this moment, she felt that the flow of Qi changed from chaotic to orderly, concentrating on a point not far away.

The spell was unsuccessful, but Li found a ring made of copper wire on a branch thirty steps away.

"This is..." Ulie probed curiously.

"The copper wire pendant produced by Jinxia, ​​but it has been disassembled and re-tied." Li's heart suddenly became clear, "Luo Qingqing is reminding us of the whereabouts of the Heimen sect in this way!"

Feeling the resonance of spells and medicines is a compulsory course for alchemists when performing spells, but only alchemists who have been trained by Jinxia can connect the shock technique with the copper wire pendant.

The detection range of qi is much wider than that of the naked eye.

In this way, even if the clues are hidden in some extremely secret places, there is no need to worry that it will be difficult for Jin Xia's followers to find out.

As for the followers of the Black Gate Sect, it was impossible to keep an eye on Luo Qingqing's entire movements.

This is undoubtedly an excellent one-way road sign!
