After the immortal disappeared

Chapter 10 Searching for mountains and rivers

A flying kite is embossed on both sides of the coin.

Copper coins are green, and this kite is also a blue kite.

"Yes, this kind of social order is divided by color." Hu Yangshanze suddenly remembered, "No, this green kite coin is not yours!"

The young man in white robe said, "I borrowed it from Mr. Sha."

Hu Yangshanze spoke slowly, and the man in gray was impatient: "Since you have come out, I want to ask you something. Answer it quickly, and I will leave quickly."

"go ahead."

Shanze is the mountain god. In some places, it is given a more understandable name:

Landlord.

Where spiritual energy gathers and creatures are abundant, mountains and rivers will slowly be born. If he is canonized by the emperor of the world, Shanze can control and exert his elemental power to manage the land and water.

If the empire disappears or the canonization expires, Shanze's vitality will also decrease, and he will eventually return to the wild age.

Although Huyang Shanze was canonized by the Yuan Kingdom, it does not even have a mountain temple. The main reason is that it sleeps with its head covered for many years and ignores the chores on the territory. The local creatures did not respond to their requests, and over time they ignored it.

But it must respond to the call of the man in gray in front of him.

Hu Yangshanze was still a little angry, but reason told him that he should not offend the person in front of him easily.

"Forty or fifty days ago, a sand leopard came here. I want you to find out its whereabouts." The man in gray said simply, "That thing only builds nests in the Western Mountains. It should be rare here."

"Sand leopard? Hmm -" Hu Yangshanze's tone was drawn out, "Let me look for it."

The two waited quietly for more than a quarter of an hour.

Suddenly, a little deer emerged from the grass, not afraid of anything, and even shook its head in front of the two of them.

Hu Yangshanze said: "Follow it."

The deer turned and ran, and the two of them followed.

After climbing over two mountain peaks, the deer headed towards a cliff and finally stopped on the edge of a steep rock.

"Is the sand leopard here?" The boy in white robe squatted down and found a few spots of dirt on the stone.

"Blood stains, but a long time ago."

The deer poked its head out of the big rock.

"Did it jump?"

The deer nodded.

Weird, even the seriously injured sand leopards fled here, why did they jump off the cliff to die again? The two looked at each other and climbed down the rocks from the side to the bottom of the stream.

The climate here is damp and much cooler than in the mountains, so the vegetation is denser. The two searched for a long time at the bottom of the stream, but did not see the leopard corpse.

The young man in white robe looked up at the cliff: "It was seriously injured, and it fell from such a high cliff. There is no way it is still alive." There are no big trees under the cliff, so it is impossible to use leaves or vines to cushion the sand leopard. "Euphratica euphratica Shanze, is it still in the mountain?"

"If you want to find its whereabouts, I will point it out to you." Another tree next to them spoke, this time it was a beech, "It is not in the mountain."

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 actually rolled out of shape.

The mud leaves were shaped by the wind. In addition to the leopard, there was also a creature with four limbs!

The young man in white robe took a look and was very surprised: "Besides Sand Leopard, there was also... a person who fell from the cliff?"

The two objects lay motionless on the ground.

"Perish together?" The young man in white robe frowned, "Where did the body go?"

Soon, two more tornadoes blew up, creating new shapes in the wind.

"Two people came and were... killed?" The white-robed boy's expression changed, "Okay, okay, no wonder my two men didn't go back, that's it!"

"Another group of people came, picked up the two corpses separately and took them away?"

The boy in the white robe carefully identified it, but unfortunately the shape made of mud leaves could not be better described as "gray-headed and earthy-faced". Anyway, it was just a blur, barely human-like, but it was impossible to see the face clearly.

"Who are these people and where do they come from?"

He asked twice, and Beech replied in a low voice:

"I don't know. Time has passed so long that all traces have faded. Only Feng Ling still remembers this little bit."

The man in gray clothes was not discouraged and took over the conversation: "At least you know which direction they went after leaving Hulu Mountain?"

The two branches of the beech tree come together and point in one direction.

Exactly where they came from——

"Blackwater City?" The white-robed young man's eyes flashed sharply, "I knew that most of the missing guards from Donglai Mansion had found clues."

But even if they traced it to this point, they could only find a vague location. Blackwater City may not be said to be big, but it may be said to be small, but it is not small either.

"Going to Blackwater City? That'll be easier." The man in gray smiled, "The most direct method is often the most effective."

The mountain forest was quiet, Populus euphratica Shanze left.

The two of them walked more than a hundred steps toward Blackwater City. The man in gray paused slightly, then suddenly raised his hand and shot out a white light.

There was a scream and the sound of flapping wings coming from the woods ten feet away.

The two of them followed the sound and discovered that blood began to appear under the tree.

The blood spots on the ground were not obvious, but fortunately the boy in white robe was good at tracking them. The two of them walked another fifteen or sixty feet, and a kite landed on the ground. It was bigger than an ordinary eagle, and its wings and abdomen were pierced.

The blood flowing from the wound has turned dark green.

"Ever since I left Blackwater City, I always felt like I was being watched. It turned out to be a little monster." The boy in white robe stepped forward and put his toes on the kite's neck, "Who sent you here?"

The kite opened its beak and panted.

"Speak." The young man in white robe said harder, "Otherwise, if the poison enters your heart, you will definitely die within a quarter of an hour!"

Yao Zi screamed in pain, and then he spoke: "I'll tell you the truth, can you let me go?"

"Of course." The young man in white robe said with a smile, "How can a swan argue with a sparrow?"

Yaozi immediately said: "I'm just a mercenary. I was just relaxing in the Hongshan Tavern with my eyes closed. Suddenly someone came in and asked me to follow what you did and report back."

"What's the origin of that man?"

"I don't know. I just take the money to do things!"

The man in gray suddenly said: "Don't listen to its nonsense. This is a domesticated monster!"

Domestic monsters, of course, have masters.

The white-robed young man's eyes became sharp, he stepped on it, and said nothing more:

"explain!"

The next morning, while the He family was still having dinner, a servant hurriedly came to report:

"Two guests came to the door and said they were under the command of General Xunzhou Zhengbei!"

He Lingchuan's heart thumped and he looked at his father. He Chunhua was also slightly startled, his face slightly condensed: "Please go to Suhong Hall to watch tea."

Suhong Hall is the place where the master of He Mansion receives guests, suitable for small gatherings.

He stood up and nodded to He Lingchuan: "Lingchuan, follow me."

He Yue and Mrs. Ying were both a little surprised.

Why did the master bring his eldest son with him when he met guests from Xunzhou?

The most convenient power given by being the head of a family is to do things without explanation. He Chunhua didn't say much and took the housekeeper and He Lingchuan to the front hall.
