MTL - After the Fairy Disappeared-Chapter 13 Shan Ze Chase
Chapter 13 Shanze Chase
A flying kite is embossed on both sides of the coin.
The copper coin is turquoise, and this kite is also a green kite.
"Yes, this kind of Sheji order is divided by color." Hu Yang Shanze suddenly remembered, "No, this green kite coin is not yours!"
The white-robed boy interrupted: "I borrowed it from Mr. Sha."
Hu Yang Shanze spoke slowly, and the man in gray was impatient: "Since you have come out, I want to ask you something, you answer quickly, and I will leave quickly."
"go ahead."
Shanze is the mountain god, and some places have given more easy-to-understand names:
Di Gong.
In places where aura gathers and life is abundant, mountains will be born slowly. If it is canonized by the emperor of the world, Shanze will be able to control and exert its power to manage a side of water and soil.
If the empire disappears or the canonization expires, Shanze's vitality will also decrease, and finally return to the wild age.
Although Huyang Shanze was conferred by Yuan Kingdom, it doesn’t even have a mountain temple. The main reason is that it sleeps with its head covered all the year round and ignores chores on the site. The local creatures do what they want and ignore it over time.
But the man in gray in front of him must respond to the call.
Hu Yang Shanze is still a little angry, but his reason tells him that the person in front of him should not be easily offended.
"Forty or fifty days ago, a sand leopard came here. I want you to find out its whereabouts." The gray-clothed man said simply, "That thing only nests in the West Mountain, and you should rarely see it here."
"Sand Leopard? Hmm—" Hu Yang Shanze's tone dragged on, "Let me look for it."
The two waited for more than a quarter of an hour.
Suddenly a small deer came out of the grass, not afraid of life, and even shook its head in front of the two of them.
Hu Yang Shanze said: "Follow it."
The deer turned and ran, and the two followed.
Crossing two peaks, the deer went to a cliff, and finally stopped at the edge of a steep boulder.
"The sand leopard is here?" The white-robed boy squatted down and found a few smudges on the stone.
"Blood, but it's been a long time."
Xiaolu poked his head straight out of the boulder.
"Did it jump?"
Fawn nodded.
It's weird, the seriously injured sand leopards have escaped here, why did they jump off the cliff to die? The two looked at each other, then walked down the rock from the side and climbed to the bottom of the stream.
The climate here is damp and much cooler than that on the mountain, so the vegetation is denser. The two searched for a long time at the bottom of the stream, but they didn't see the leopard's corpse.
The boy in white robe looked up at the cliff: "It was seriously injured, and it fell from such a high cliff, so it is impossible to be alive." There are no big trees under the cliff, so it is impossible to use leaves or vines to cushion the sand leopard. "Huyang Shanze, is it still in the mountains?"
"If you want to find its whereabouts, I'll show you." There was another tree opening beside the two, this time it was a beech, "It's not in the mountains."
A gust of mountain wind blew by, and a small tornado blew up on the ground. The branches, leaves, and soil were rolled up, and they unexpectedly rolled out of shape.
The shape of the mud leaf was sculpted by the wind. In addition to the leopard, there is also a creature with limbs!
The white-robed boy glanced at it twice, and was very surprised: "The one who fell from the cliff, besides the sand leopard, was there another... person?"
These two things were lying on the ground, motionless.
"To die together?" The white-robed boy frowned, "Where did the corpse go?"
Soon, two more tornadoes blew up, creating new shapes in the wind.
"Two people came and were killed by...?" The white-robed boy's face changed, "Okay, okay, no wonder my two subordinates didn't go back, that's why!"
"Another group of people came, lifted up these two corpses... and took them away?"
The young man in white robe carefully identified the shape, but unfortunately the shape molded by the mud leaves is best described as "grey-headed and dirt-faced". Anyway, it is blurred and barely fits into a human shape, but it is impossible to see the face clearly.
"Who are these people and where are they from?"
He asked twice, and Beech answered in a low voice:
"I don't know. It's been too long, all traces have faded, only Feng Ling still remembers this."
The man in gray was not discouraged, and took over the conversation: "At least you know, which direction they went after leaving Calabash Mountain?"
The two branches of the beech are joined together, pointing in one direction.
is where they came from—
"Heishui City?" The white-robed boy's eyes flashed sharply, "I knew that most of the missing guards in Donglai Mansion have found clues."
But even if they traced it so far, they only found a vague location. Heishui City is not big if you say it is, but it is not small if you say it is small.
"Going to Heishui City? That's easy." The man in gray smiled, "The most direct method is often the most effective."
The forest was quiet, and Hu Yang Shanze left.
The two walked more than a hundred steps towards Heishui City. The man in gray paused slightly, and suddenly raised his hand and shot a white light.
There was a shriek and a flapping of wings in the woods ten feet away.
The two followed the sound and found bloodstains began to appear under the big tree.
The blood spots on the ground were not obvious, but fortunately the young man in white robe was good at tracking them. The two walked another fifteen to sixty feet, and a kite landed on the ground, which was bigger than an ordinary eagle, and its wings and abdomen were pierced.
The blood from the wound has turned dark green.
"Ever since I left Heishui City, I always felt that I was being watched by someone. It turned out to be a little monster." The white-robed boy stepped forward and put his toes on the kite's neck, "Who sent you here?"
The kite kept panting with its beak open.
"Speak." The white-robed boy said with more force, "Otherwise the poison will enter the heart, and you will die within a quarter of an hour!"
Kiaozi let out a cry of pain, and said, "I'm telling the truth, can you let me go?"
"Of course." The white-robed boy smiled, "Why would the swan care about the sparrow?"
Kiaozi immediately said: "I'm just a mercenary. I just closed my eyes and rested in the Red Mountain Tavern. Suddenly someone came in and asked me to follow what you did and report back."
"What is the origin of that person?"
"I don't know. I just get paid to do things!"
The man in gray suddenly said: "Don't listen to its nonsense. This is a domesticated monster!"
For domesticated monsters, of course they have owners.
The white-robed young man's eyes became sharp, he stepped on it, and said nothing else:
"Say!"
¥¥¥¥¥¥
The next morning, while the He family was still eating, a servant rushed to report:
"Two guests came to the door, saying that they are under the command of General Xunzhou Zhengbei!"
He Lingchuan groaned in his heart and looked at his father. He Chunhua was also slightly taken aback, his face condensed slightly: "Please go to the Suhong Hall to watch tea."
Suhong Hall is the place where the owner of the He Mansion receives guests, and it is suitable for small gatherings in twos and threes.
He stood up, nodded He Lingchuan: "Lingchuan, follow me."
Both He Yue and Mrs. Ying were a little surprised.
Master met the guests from Xunzhou, why did he bring his eldest son with him?
As the head of the family, the most convenient power is to do things without explanation. He Chunhua didn't say much, and took the housekeeper and He Lingchuan to the front hall.
