Although the forest in front of them is also considered dense, it is still very different from the beast forest.
There are many trees in the forest, but they are not big. There are few ancient trees that are hundreds of years old. There are few people here, but it is not that no one comes.
There are no beasts, only some small beasts are active.
After the person in front rushed into the woods, they began to quickly find the best shelter.
His line of sight was blocked by leaves, and he couldn't see the figure in front of him. Shao Xuan could only hear some swishing leaves and branches scratching.
Looking at the other party's actions in the woods, Shao Xuan knew that he was a veteran and knew how to run faster in the woods with the smallest movement. Some of the sounds coming from the front were not necessarily made by the other party accidentally. May be intentional.
You can't judge by the sound, those are all interference methods displayed by the other party.
Shao Xuan has been staring at the trace of the other party's fire, but, chasing after, the other party's fire suddenly disappeared!
strangeness.
Shao Xuan's footsteps slowed down, and then slowly walked forward.
There were several small beasts holding branches in the surrounding trees, looking at Shao Xuan curiously, making a cooing sound like a demonstration, but Shao Xuan ignored it.
There was a slope in front of him. Because of the dense weeds, Shao Xuan couldn't see the situation under the slope clearly. He could only judge from the sound of running water that he heard, there should be a small river below.
In the middle of the slope, there is an animal skin coat, which is exactly what the other party wore. Further down the slope, there are also pants and shoes worn by the target.
Without going down to check, Shao Xuan stood above the slope and looked around.
There are a few thicker trees around, perhaps because less people come here, the trees are older than the trees in other places nearby.
The bushes are not too high, and Shao Xuan can see the general situation on the surrounding ground at a glance.
After scanning the grass, Shao Xuan walked around the surrounding ancient trees, looking at the branches from time to time, and occasionally stopped to listen to the surrounding movement to see if anyone was approaching. For a time, only the sound of Shao Xuan's feet stepping on the ground and the squeaking sound of plucking the branches could be heard here. There were a few birds calling not far away, making it even more lonely here.
After checking around and walking back and forth for a few laps, Shao Xuan left.
When Shao Xuan left, the surroundings became quiet again, with only the faint sounds of birds and insects.
After a while, the tree near the slope suddenly made a small noise, as if someone was gently scraping the bark.
About twenty meters above the ground, on the trunk, at the junction of the two branches, a pair of eyes suddenly opened, and the eyeballs moved.
At first glance, I thought that these eyes were grown on a tree, but if you look closely, you will find that these eyes are not embedded in the tree, but belong to another.
The texture and folds of the bark gradually receded, revealing human skin, and with the slight sound of breathing, a human-shaped body was revealed.
This person is exactly Shao Xuan's pursuit target!
Looking around, the man flexibly slipped down from the tree and was about to leave. But just after taking two steps, his scalp suddenly tightened, and his keen intuition told him that there was danger here, his eyelids shook again and again, and a bad feeling suddenly struck.
escape!
Stepping out, he was about to start the second round of flying, but before he could start running, something seemed to be touched on his leg, and with the sound of the buzzing silk thread vibrating, on the surrounding trees, branches like It was suddenly cut off, the broken branches and leaves flew up, and the filaments that were easily overlooked were gathered here.
His feet were tight, and his ankles had been tied twice, and it was so tight that it seemed like he was going to break his entire foot. He could feel that if he tried to break free, perhaps, the foot would be abolished.
He wanted to take out the knife and cut the thread, but he didn't have the time, because when he was about to take out the knife, several threads were gathered and tied tightly, and the whole leg was restrained.
There were footsteps not far from the side, and they approached unhurriedly.
Hearing the footsteps, the man bound by the noose bowed his head in resignation, how could he be fooled? This kid is so cunning!
"Okay, I'm not running anymore." The man raised his hand, looked at Shao Xuan who was walking in front of him, and laughed.
Shao Xuan smiled back, and when he moved his wrist, the blade rested on the side of the opponent's neck, and if he moved a little bit, he could cut off the pulse.
The chill and bloody murderous aura brought by the metal blade made the man tremble, "Don't kill me! I really have no ill intentions, I'm just curious, I heard that you killed the Wanshi tribe, go to Yanjiao to have a look. ."
Shao Xuan didn't talk nonsense with him, he didn't move his sword at all, and said, "Come out."
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.
The surrounding woods were very quiet, and no human voice could be heard, only the sounds of insects and birds belonging to the woods.
"Don't go out? Then collect the corpse for him!" Shao Xuan was about to slash down with a sword.
"Wait a minute!!"
An inaudible female voice came from behind the bushes.
The other party looked very young, but he gave Shao Xuan a seasoned sense of maturity. His face was very ordinary and easy to be forgotten. He was dressed as a Flaming Horn Tribe, and the patterns on the animal skins were all Flaming Horn style. The flame pattern of her, and the bone ornaments she wears are also similar to those of the Yanjiao tribe. If you just look at the appearance, putting her in the Yanjiao tribe is not abrupt at all. It is no wonder that this person can sneak into the scope of the Yanjiao tribe.
"There is something to discuss, there is no need to hack and kill." The woman was still calm, "You haven't killed anyone yet, so you must be planning to learn more from us."
"Not bad." Shao Xuan retracted his sword, but the worm silk that caught the person did not retract.
The woman glanced at the person who was bound, and when she saw the other party shook her head without a trace, she knew that the line that bound him was not an ordinary line, and could not easily break free, so she had to think of other ways.
Shao Xuan only pretended not to see the eye contact between the two and asked, "Who are you? Why did you come to my Flaming Horn Tribe? Don't say that I sneaked in out of curiosity. I don't believe this. If you talk nonsense, I will break it. your feet."
Although Shao Xuan's tone was calm, both of them knew that he wasn't talking about playing. The murderous aura of the sword that was placed on his neck just now was real. If the woman didn't come out, the sword would have really slashed. .
Knowing that it is not easy to fool, the person who was bound thought for a moment and said, "Steal Eleven."
"Pirate Twelve." The woman who came over also reluctantly said.
Seeing Shao Xuan frowning and staring at them, Thief Eleven said helplessly: "Really, I didn't lie to you. Come to think of it, you should guess that we are 'thieves'. Our 'thieves' are named according to our rankings."
This is half true and half false. They are indeed named according to their rankings, but this can only be regarded as a code name. The real name will not be easily said. what. But they won't tell Shao Xuan about this.
Shao Xuan didn't speak, just stared at the two of them. Seeing the two of them were heartbroken.
Shao Xuan did not doubt the origin of these two people. Although he was calm on the face, he was very surprised at the bottom of his heart. He found something weird.
In the past, I only felt that the people of "thieves" had a special fire atmosphere. Now, it seems that that feeling is not wrong. "Pirates" are indeed different from other tribes.
Shao Xuan knew before that the "thieves" were a very special tribe. The members of this tribe were relatively independent and did not live together like other tribes all year round. The mystery of this tribe is that, until now, no one has been able to discover where this tribe is.
Many people hated them so much that they went to great lengths to find them, and even many people who had lost precious objects, clamored to put out the fire of the "stealers", so that the "thieves" had nowhere to steal them.
However, no one has ever succeeded.
Of course it can't be successful, because the original fire of "stealing" may be long gone!
Shao Xuan always thought that Yanjiao was the first tribe to integrate fire, but now it seems that this is not the case!
It's no wonder that when I asked about "thieves" before, everyone said that the thieves are very mysterious, and the members are scattered, which is puzzling. It is because they have integrated the fire, so they don't need to gather around the original fire. Their tribe has long changed. , from gathering to scattered, more like a form of organization, on weekdays doing their own things, and getting together again when there is something.
It's no wonder that everyone can't find the base camp of "thieves". They don't even have the original fire, and even if there is a fire pit, it is useless.
"What did you steal from the Flame Corner?" Shao Xuan asked.
"No! We were discovered before we did anything." Thief Eleven shook his head again and again. This is true, and they are also depressed, how was it discovered so quickly
"Apart from you, who else has sneaked into the flame angle?" Shao Xuan asked again.
"I don't know." Thief Eleven said, "We don't understand the actions of other people, they all do their own thing."
"I really don't know? He went to the house where you buried things." Shao Xuan said.
Hearing this, Thief Eleven and Thief Twelve's expressions changed. How did Shao Xuan know that they buried something? Could it be that something has been dug up by the people of Yanjiao
"It's Thief Seven." The two of them didn't mean to hide it, and they didn't think there was anything to hide. They only told Thief Qi about where to bury things, and if someone went there, it was probably Robber Qi.
seven? Shao Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the two people in front of him. Ranked in front of these two people, that is to say, the level is higher than these two people. No wonder he ran very fast at the time, and his reaction was indeed one step ahead of the two.
"Where did you steal the things you buried?" Shao Xuan asked.
The two didn't say a word, but their eyes exchanged many times, probably thinking about how to deceive them.
"If you answer honestly, I can let you go."
"Really?" The two looked straight at Shao Xuan, trying to tell the truth from Shao Xuan's eyes.
"really."
