When Feng Ying and Cheng Fang arrived, there was no one here.
When they came, it took a lot of time.
Lu Mingshu didn't burn the talisman paper, Feng Ying couldn't sense it, and the wind and sand were extremely strong, making it difficult to track.
It was half guesswork, half luck that they found this place.
"Senior Sister Feng, although there are traces of fighting here, it may not be her, right? If she was in danger, why didn't she notify you?"
Feng Ying stared at the scorched black marks on the ground for a long time. Before Lu Mingshu left, she took away the "burnt corpses" of the two puppets. In the end, she only found a small part the size of a finger from among the sand and stones.
"Junior Sister Cheng, what do I think this is?"
Cheng Fang looked at it carefully for a while, and was a little confused: "It's weird, this thing looks like some kind of utensil material... By the way! Puppet!"
"Really?" Feng Ying sighed, "Puppets made of such materials are not the ones we usually use..."
"Yes." Cheng Fang was puzzled, "There are not many people who are good at puppets in the sect, and I have never heard of anyone whose puppets can participate in the war."
The puppet should be distracted and commanded. In case the puppets are disobedient, their own strength will be weakened instead. It is okay to make a few to fight, but to bring them in to participate in the battle... I have thought about it all, but I can't think of anyone who can reach the level.
Cheng Fang said again: "Even if this is a puppet, it doesn't necessarily have something to do with Miss Lu, does it?"
"But I just think it has something to do with her." Feng Ying said lightly, staring at the charred marks on the ground, "Intuition."
Cheng Fang didn't have to believe Lu Mingshu's intuition, but if it were Feng Ying, she would of course believe it. The two teachers and sisters grew up together, and she knew that Fengying was not someone who would just talk about it.
"If it's hers, why doesn't she ask us for help?"
yeah, why? Feng Ying also didn't understand.
She thought for a long time, and said: "There should be two reasons. First, she feels confident to deal with it. Second, the strength of the incoming person is too strong, and it is useless for us to come."
"I believe the first point, and the second point..." Cheng Fang shook her head, feeling that her senior sister was thinking too much. If the opponent is too strong, he will definitely ask for help immediately, right? Lu Mingshu had been with them not long ago, and he didn't have such a deep relationship, so he would be so considerate of them.
"There is a third possibility." Feng Ying said softly.
"what?"
"She has a secret, and she thinks it's better to do things alone." Feng Ying thought to herself, maybe she also had this consideration in her proposal to split up.
Cheng Fang frowned: "Sanyang Stone is an important place in the sect. Could it be that she sneaked in to find out the secrets of the sect?"
"Shouldn't be targeting the sect." In the blink of an eye, Feng Ying already had a plan, "This is just right. If she really has a secret, she will definitely not reveal it when she's with us. Now that she's away from us, I don't have any scruples in my heart. Let's find her quickly and follow her from a distance, so we can see her more clearly."
The words are very reasonable, but: "How do you find this?" The wind and sand in Sanyang Stone are too violent, if the other party deliberately hides their whereabouts, the difficulty of tracking will increase exponentially.
"Try first before talking." Feng Ying was quite confident, "With such a big wind and sand, her movements can't go anywhere fast, she must still be nearby."
…
Lu Mingshu randomly chose the appearance of a disciple of Zhou Liuzong, and used the deformed puppet to transform into the opponent's appearance, walking alone in the wind and sand.
That person actually sent two puppets from the Transformation Realm to chase her down. It's impossible to just let it go, there must be another way.
"Xiao Bu, is there anyone else around?"
Xiao Bu lay on her shoulders, raised his head slightly, and turned the jewels in his eyes: "No."
Very good, consistent with her induction.
The crisis was temporarily lifted, and Lu Mingshu stopped to rest.
There are injuries on her body, but she is well prepared this time and has been suppressed with medicine, which will not affect her strength for the time being.
"Master, what shall we do now?"
What should I do? Lu Mingshu thought for a while, then raised the corner of his mouth: "Since the other party has already made a move, it's time for us to pay back."
"Crack!" Xiao Bu was a little confused, "How do you retaliate?"
"Take the initiative to attack." She said lightly, "That person must have more than this trick. The puppet has been killed by us, so... among the disciples who entered the Sanyang Stone this time, it is very likely that he has his eyeliner. After all, the puppet No matter how real it is, some things still need to be done by living people.”
"Oh."
"Let's find someone first." Lu Mingshu said, "Xiao Bu, you should be careful now. If you sense someone's breath, you must tell me."
"Okay." Xiao Bu said immediately, "Just behind, the master's partner just now is chasing him."
Feng Ying and Cheng Fang? Lu Mingshu smiled: "Exactly."
She got up and patted the sand, chose a random direction, and planned to leave here.
Feng Ying and Cheng Fang felt the distance not too close or too far.
The two rushed to catch up, only to see a male disciple walking into the wind and sand, and stopped in disappointment.
But they didn't give up, and looked in another direction, not knowing their goal, so they just missed it.
After walking for a while, Xiao Bu reminded: "Master! There is someone in the front left!"
Lu Mingshu hid his breath, followed the induction to find a mine, and found that two parties had a dispute, and started to fight.
After all, they are disciples of the same sect, both sides are merciful, and the loser will give in and end up.
She followed for a while, but found nothing unusual, so she left to continue searching.
There is a deformed puppet, and no one has noticed her existence. Even if they glanced at her, they thought it was someone from the same sect.
The wind and sand were too strong, there were as many as sixty disciples entering the Sanyang Stone, who could guarantee that they would recognize all of them
On the other side, Cheng Fang was discouraged.
"Senior Sister, we have been searching for a long time, but we couldn't find her at all. If she deliberately avoided us, it would be difficult to find her, right?"
Feng Ying was still in high spirits: "I don't believe she can dig a hole and go down! If you can't find it, keep looking." Then she said to Cheng Fang, "Junior Sister, bear with me, this is the task that Master entrusted to me, even if this time the Three Suns It will be brushed down, and I have to finish it too."
Cheng Fang nodded. She knew that her master's disciples were extremely strict, and she was free to do other things, and she was absolutely not allowed to be sloppy about what was confessed.
"I understand, I just listened to my senior sister."
When the two of them searched hard, Lu Mingshu tracked down one by one, and already filtered out more than half of the disciples who entered here.
And at this moment, she finally realized that something was wrong.
When she found the three-person team, they were also in a mine. The puppets distributed by the sect were diligently digging for thunder crystals, but the three of them gathered together, silently surrounding a map.
This is a map of Sanyang Stone, marking many ore spots.
After a while, one of them said, "Senior Brother Xun, we have searched most of the places, but we haven't found anyone. What should we do now?"
This Senior Brother Xun is of course not Xun Yushu, but his appearance looks somewhat similar to Xun Yushu, so he should be of the same family.
"Yeah, I met Senior Brother Chai just now, they met Senior Sister Feng, but they didn't see that woman, maybe she has noticed it?"
