Chapter 292 Pursuit on a snowy night (Part 1)
In this extremely cold night, walking in the mountains filled with thick snow is extremely exhausting.
After only walking seven or eight miles, some people began to sweat profusely, and white steam came out of their heads. But even so, Heiyunzi's men still did not dare to slack off, but gritted their teeth and Follow closely behind.
Because they know that at this critical moment of life and death, Hei Yunzi, who is usually very strict, will become even more ruthless.
The slightest disobedience or slackness will result in cruel punishment or even loss of life.
Especially Geng Ying, even though the wound on his forehead had been frozen and even started to itch, and he was obviously about to get frostbite, he did not dare to relax even for a breath and followed closely behind the team.
Because his life is only temporarily in his hands, if something goes wrong again, Hei Yunzi will definitely kill himself without hesitation.
Fortunately, after walking for a while, Hei Yunzi finally ordered to rest.
With a plop, several weaker people immediately fell to the ground, breathing heavily and unable to move.
Although Heiyunzi was not that exaggerated, he still felt a little tired.
But out of vigilance, he did not rest immediately. Instead, he jumped up a big tree and carefully observed his surroundings. When he was sure that no one was following him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
After landing, he took out a wine gourd from his luggage, opened the cork, took a sip himself, and then handed it to his men around him.
"Let's all drink some wine to warm ourselves up."
The reason why Hei Yunzi was able to establish such a high prestige among these subordinates was that he could not rely only on violent means, but also had to show kindness.
Only by combining kindness and power can your subordinates work for you.
After taking over the wine gourd, these subordinates began to take turns drinking.
After drinking the high-strength liquor mixed with medicinal herbs, the severe cold outside quickly dissipated, and the whole body felt warm.
And while they were drinking and resting, in the valley more than ten miles away, Zhao Ya couldn't help but have a look of amusement on his face as he looked at the empty cellars.
"It's interesting. You are so vigilant and so thoughtful. No wonder no one has been able to catch you for so long."
Just now, Zhao Ya first returned to a hidden foothold he had arranged outside Canglong Temple, took out what he needed, and then returned.
In less than an hour, Zhao Ya traveled back and forth for at least 1,780 miles, most of which were snow-covered roads. The speed was astonishing.
But after arriving outside the valley, Zhao Ya was surprised to find that the previous feeling that someone was secretly vigilant was gone.
Then Zhao Ya saw the climbing traces at the gap in the valley, as well as the vague remnants of the bait in the air.
No need to ask, this must be Hei Yunzi discovering something and running away.
But Zhao Ya didn't rush to chase them. On the contrary, judging from the traces of the bait, they had only been gone for about half an hour.
It's probably impossible to run very far when the road is blocked by heavy snow.
Zhao Ya was confident that he could easily catch up with his own speed, so he entered the valley first and planned to see what was inside.
Don't underestimate this, sometimes through this kind of observation you can roughly infer the character or cultivation of Heiyunzi, which is very helpful for the subsequent hunt.
Sure enough, after arriving in the valley and looking at the cellars, Zhao Ya couldn't help but laugh.
Because the smell of poisonous powder emanating from these cellars was simply obvious to Zhao Ya.
It can be inferred from this that this Heiyunzi is not only extremely vigilant, but also thoughtful and vicious.
This is when he meets himself who is good at poison. If there are uninformed people, it is really possible for him to fall into the trap.
Although the poison powder used by Hei Yunzi is highly toxic, it is not difficult to crack. What's more, Zhao Ya also has the talent of being invulnerable to all poisons, so it is naturally even easier.
Zhao Ya stepped into the largest cellar and looked around inside, but found no valuable clues.
The same is true for other cellars, but judging from the neat and orderly arrangement of items, Heiyunzi and his group were not busy when they evacuated.
This is a very important point, proving that Hei Yunzi should have a strong dominance among this group of subordinates.
Thinking of this, the image of Hei Yunzi became more and more three-dimensional in Zhao Ya's mind.
Such a rogue bandit who is extremely strict under control and extremely vigilant at the same time is really a headache. No wonder Hei Yunzi was also rated highly in the master mission of Canglong Temple.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya didn't waste any time, turned around and came to the gap in the valley, smelled the scent of the bait remaining in the air, and after confirming the direction, he plunged into the forest and disappeared after a few ups and downs.
At the same time, Hei Yunzi and his men had completed their repairs and continued on their way.
Hei Yunzi always felt that something was not quite right, but he couldn't pinpoint where it was.
This sudden feeling made him frown and feel very worried.
You must know that his premonitions have always been accurate, and he has escaped from hell several times relying on this.
So he always felt that something big was going to happen.
But now that he has reached this point, the only way forward is to go forward. Hei Yunzi can only hope to reach the next hiding spot as soon as possible.
Therefore, he urged these subordinates extremely severely. Even if some of them were about to run away and vomit blood, he still had no intention of relaxing at all.
At this moment, in a forest not far behind them, a figure landed lightly on a big tree without even stirring up any snowflakes.
In just ten miles, Zhao Ya caught up with him in an instant.
At this moment, Zhao Ya stared at the team in the distance, and his eyes quickly locked on the target.
Although they were far apart, Zhao Ya could still see very clearly with the bright moon in the sky and the reflection from the snow.
I saw this Heiyunzi with an eagle nose and harrier eyes, and his eyes were shining brightly. It was obvious that he was not weak in strength.
While Zhao Ya was secretly observing Hei Yunzi, he suddenly looked around with some doubts, and a strong look of vigilance appeared on his face.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Ya couldn't help but feel shocked.
He was currently in a hibernating state, and from such a long distance, it stands to reason that he wouldn't be able to notice anything.
But this Heiyunzi's performance was obviously aware of it.
Could it be that he wasn't paying attention somewhere and his whereabouts were exposed?
Just when Zhao Ya was confused, the fear in Hei Yunzi's heart had reached its peak.
Just now, he suddenly felt a vague sense of prying eyes.
This feeling was so weak that even Hei Yunzi almost thought it was his own illusion.
But he soon knew that this was no illusion, because a strong sense of crisis arose in his heart.
This feeling was unprecedented. Even the time when I was besieged and nearly killed, it was not as fierce as this time.
Heiyunzi knew that he must have been secretly targeted by someone so powerful and terrifying.
Therefore, he made a prompt decision and suddenly ordered: "Run separately!"
After saying these three words, the Heiyun people rushed out, leaving these subordinates standing there in confusion.
At this moment, Zhao Ya in the distance couldn't help but sigh.
I have to say that this Heiyunzi is indeed a character, and he can afford to put it down.
After feeling the danger, the decision he made was beyond human reach.
However, this piqued Zhao Ya's interest even more.
Now that he had been exposed, he simply stopped hiding it. After a chuckle, the others rushed out, and in an instant, they were over the heads of Geng Ying and others, chasing Hei Yunzi in the direction of escape.
Sorry, I didn't sleep all night again last night. I slept all day during the day and started typing in the evening. However, the work is now over and the old man has been laid to rest. I can resume normal updates tomorrow.
