Facts speak louder than words.

It was impossible for this person to practice martial arts or vent his anger when he was being hunted down. The only explanation is that there must be a scorching fire poison in his body, eager to vent, and he just pressed it to vent some of the fire poison in his body Come to this tree and wither the cedar that has such tenacious vitality!

This kind of strength can only be said to be something that Lin Fengjin can only look up to, but the terrifying existence that chased this person running away and fleeing in embarrassment can be imagined. He couldn't help but hesitated, because this kind of battle between terrifying forces was no longer within his reach.

"Well, there should be two more things, I'll talk about them after I find them."

The next two things that Lin Fengjin wants to find are also very important. The first is the shell paper media left behind by the fireworks. After the fireworks are released, the paper media is useless. I believe that most people are Abandon it casually, the second is footprints!Footprints left by the creature that hunted the man down!

From the paper media, it can basically be judged whether the escaped person belongs to the Xirong side or the Dongxia side.

Because it is also possible that the people of Donglin Academy are chasing and killing others, from the traces of the footprints, we can know whether the pursuers are humans, beasts, or existences that do not belong to the two, and we can get extra valuable information from it.

Without too much effort, Lin Fengjin found a paper medium for releasing fireworks. This thing looks ordinary, and the smell is naturally rich in the smell of burning saltpeter. However, his sense of smell is different from ordinary people, and he used his lungs. After using the power, it can be clearly discerned that the place where the fingers pinched the paper media has a faint spicy taste.

This smell is a bit peculiar, and it is no stranger to Lin Fengjin, because although his family is a grain merchant, he often brings some scarce and light goods to sell, so he naturally knows that Dongxia is full of wind and snow, It is cold all year round, so I have always liked spirits, peppers and other things to keep out the cold. In recent years, snuff has become popular among the upper class.

Tobacco leaves with good fragrance are dried in the sun, mixed with dried leaves of a plant called Cornus officinalis, ground into powder, put into a sealed container, and aged for a certain period of time before being used.No need to ignite, just stick the smoke powder on your fingers and inhale gently through the nostrils, it can refresh your spirits and is addictive.

However, some secret snuff can even act as a stimulant, which has miraculous effects on temporary pain relief and high spirits, so it is like wine, which is the standard equipment for long-distance travel or adventure.

The person who escaped came here, vented out the boiling fire poison in his body first, then logically inhaled some snuff to suppress the pain, and then sent out a firework signal... This series of actions are organized Reasonable, logical.Therefore, Lin Fengjin can also judge from this habit of snuffing that the person he is following is a member of Dongxia.

Among the three forces that entered the mountain, the Dongxia side, which had not shown up for a long time, finally showed its whereabouts. It can be seen from the fact that their people were hunted down in embarrassment, and their situation is also not good.

Then Lin Fengjin didn't find another thing of great value,

That is footprints.

Footprints of the pursuer!

Lin Fengjin had encountered two strange incidents where he couldn't find his footprints before. The first time was when he was in the caravan heading to Xiangfan, and encountered a bat attack controlled by Mohist disciple Wan Qi. The enemy came from the air, of course No relevant footprints could be found.

The second time, the guard Liu Bo was attacked in the extremely desolate temple, and the enemy's footprints could not be found in the mud, but the reason was that the enemy was a snake ghost from the ground.

So this time, what method did the chaser adopt without leaving any footprints on the ground?No trace in the snow?

Can't find the footprints of this pursuer, Lin Fengjin doesn't even know if he, her, or her is a human or a beast, a demon or a demon, let alone the vicinity of the dragon's veins, what weird things happened?You don't even know the race of possible enemies, so how can you talk about trying to make money out of the fire?

After searching for a while, Lin Fengjin still got nothing, so he could only leave angrily, because he didn't dare to stay here for too long, after all, he wasn't sure that the person who saw the fireworks How much, and the people who saw the fireworks are very likely to rush over.

If the person who comes is from Donglin Academy, then everyone is happy, but if the person who comes is from Dongxia or Xirong, Lin Fengjin's affairs will be a big problem. Smart, Lin Fengjin is likely to be eaten as soon as possible.....

So Lin Fengjin only stayed for a bag of cigarettes, and then continued to follow the footprints left by the escaped man. At this time, because of limited information, he basically gave up the idea of ​​making a profit. Continue to follow this direction because this person is equivalent to opening the way ahead, which is ten times better than Lin Fengjin's hastily groping for the way in this completely unfamiliar cold mountain forest.

Gradually, Lin Fengjin tracked all the way forward, and soon the sky brightened. He followed the footprints and climbed a mountain peak, but the vision ahead was clear, but there was a mountain After getting used to the endless rolling hills, the plains and valleys in front of you suddenly have a very wide field of vision, which immediately broadens the heart and mood of the people, and relieves a lot of stagnation.

"what....?"

Lin Fengjin stood on this high place and watched from a distance. Under the faint morning light, he suddenly saw a small black spot moving on the snowfield. He immediately used the power of his kidney god, and immediately realized that the small black spot was impressively It's a person!This person was dressed in Dongxia clothing, and his head and face were tightly wrapped to keep out the cold and rain. It was impossible to tell his age, and he probably wouldn't be much older.

Lin Fengjin looked at it a few more times, and for some reason, a secretive feeling of uneasiness gradually arose in his heart!That kind of chill was not born all at once, but gradually increased with the observation of that person. It seemed that the more you know, the greater the fear!

The man who escaped obviously had excellent physical strength. He was walking on the vast snow field at a very fast speed, but this is not the point. Unexpectedly, he continued to flee forward with both hands and feet, and looked back from time to time...but this is also normal, since he was being hunted down in the first place.

But...but the biggest weirdness is: there is nothing chasing him at all!

There is a saying that the authorities are confused, but the onlookers are clear, not to mention that Lin Fengjin is condescending at this time, overlooking the vast snow field, so he can clearly see that there is nothing within a radius of more than ten miles of the fleeing person that can threaten him biology.There is no such thing in the sky, and it is even more impossible to have it underground!Because even if it is a water worm with natural supernatural powers, it is impossible to catch up with that person's running speed in the ground.

If it was something like a ghost, dawn would have dawned in the east, the rooster sang, and the sun would have been out for half an hour. What kind of ghosts and spirits could come out at this time?

Even the five ghosts refined by Taoist Fu, if they want to walk in the daytime, they must be hidden in the shadow of people first, and they must be protected with very rare materials of three cold and nine yin, so that they can barely drive a camel. The wind walks, but that's all.

That being the case, what is this person hiding from?What are you running for?

The more Lin Fengjin looked at it, the more frightened he became. Even at such a distance, he couldn't help but feel the chills gushing out of his body.I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that this dragon vein by the Onan River looks so hot, but it is so short-lived.Just looking at the frequent occurrence of such strange things in the region it is in, one knows that there must be something special.

All of a sudden, the man staggered violently and fell down on the snow. Even so, he was still rushing forward with crazy hands and feet, but it seemed that his physical strength had really reached the critical point, even though he was trying his best to run away , As soon as he fell down, the breath held in his chest was released, and it was difficult to struggle again.

Lin Fengjin squinted his eyes at this moment, and watched the movement around him with all his attention. Seeing that this person was running away so quickly, it could be said that the pursuit or crisis was imminent. will be overtaken, and the enemy will appear on the spot.At that time, it will be clear at a glance whether the pursuer is a human or a ghost, a beast or a demon.

But Lin Fengjin waited for half an hour!Didn't see anything appearing either! !He couldn't help feeling great doubts in his heart, even though he knew that the best way at this time was to turn around and leave, but there was a ready-made opportunity to search for the inheritance in front of him, how could people let it go ?

Isn't it because of the arrival of this moment that he has worked so hard to track him down for so long?

However, Lin Fengjin knew that he should not hesitate at this time, whether to leave or go down to search for the inheritance, he had to be decisive. There is a saying that when he decides to continue to suffer from it, the two ends of the first mouse will often miss big things!So when he gritted his teeth, he felt that he had tracked him down here. Could there be any reason for him to return empty-handed?Just cast the secret technique of Lieshan Attack in advance and give yourself 30 seconds, no!Ten seconds, grab something and run, combined with the mysterious and unpredictable movement of the hunter, who can catch up?

So Lin Fengjin simply released Lieshan Attack for himself, then rushed down the mountain quickly, ran in the direction of that person, stopped cautiously when he was hundreds of meters away, and listened carefully with his ears. Realizing that this person's breathing and heartbeat were indeed very weak, and he was seriously injured to death, this was definitely not something he could pretend, so he rushed over in relief.
