As a Master Charm Master, he was one of the top figures in the Northern Fu Men. If it weren't for his self-restraint, he wouldn't have been able to tolerate their arrogance. Those guys relentlessly chased them for more than four months. During this time, they didn't eat or sleep well, and their supplies were almost depleted. They didn't dare to hunt in large scale, which made them extremely unhappy.
As their supplies gradually depleted, their days became more and more difficult.
It had been two days since they saw the hunting carts, so they relaxed a little. Guo Shier, however, didn't feel relaxed at all. He found Luo Jie and said, "Master, I don't think it's good!"
Luo Jie was shocked. Guo Shier's intuition had been proven many times. It was very accurate, so he took it seriously and said, "I haven't seen the hunting cart for two days, is there any problem?"
Guo Shier smiled bitterly, "I don't know what's wrong, but I'm very annoyed. I think … we should go back, to that mountain …"
Luo Jie shook his head, "Shier, do you still know the way back?"
Guo Shier said, "I've been confused for a long time, I don't even know where we are, but I feel that … we can only be truly safe if we go back to that mountain."
Qi Nanshan said, "Not to mention that mountain, we can't even find the ruins. Haha, we're really lost. But don't worry, as long as we wait for the Secret Territory to close, getting lost won't be a problem."
Guo Shier was annoyed, he said, "I don't know … should we go forward, or back, or stay still. I can't find a suitable route, I keep feeling that there's a trap waiting for us, but I don't know where it is … as long as we avoid it this time, we'll be safe!"
Luo Jie comforted him, "Shier, this isn't your responsibility, it's the master's responsibility."
Guo Shier shook his head, "The master's responsibility is also the disciple's responsibility. As long as I have the ability, I have to bear this responsibility."
Luo Jie sighed, patted his shoulder, and said, "Shier, you should rest, you've been too tired recently."
Guo Shier was indeed tired, but not to the extent that he couldn't bear it. He said, "Master, we can't rest yet, no matter what, we can't stay in one place for too long."
Luo Jie said, "I know, you should go sleep and relax a little. Maybe your intuition will be more accurate."
Guo Shi 'er felt that his master's words made sense, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to sleep. Remember to ask them to wake me up. I only need two hours of sleep." The child lacked sleep. Although he cultivated his soul and didn't need to sleep for too long, he still needed to sleep for a while to recover his energy.
This sleep lasted for four hours. In order to let his disciple sleep a little longer, Luo Jie purposely did not wake him up.
Guo Shi 'er stood up and asked, "What time is it? Huo Bao.
"It's almost dawn," said Huo Bao.
Guo Shier shivered, and said, "Why are we still here?"
Huo Bao said, "Grandpa wants you to sleep a little longer, he said you've been working too hard these days …"
Guo Shier smiled bitterly, "I know, grandpa is doing this for my own good … Bao Zi, quickly pack your things and get ready to leave, I'm going to see Master."
Most of the people had already packed their things and were ready to leave. Guo Shier found Luo Jie and said, "Master, let's get out of here quickly."
Luo Jie asked, "How was your rest?"
Guo Shier said, "Master, I had a good rest, we shouldn't stay here for long, we should leave quickly."
Qi Nanshan said, "Grandpa, we should go."
Luo Jie said, "Let's go! Dashan, send some people to explore the way, we'll go deep into the forest. "
Everyone immediately set off, going deep into the forest. This time they walked in a straight line, hoping to quickly enter the forest.
…
At noon, the team arrived near a hill, where there was a stream, hidden in the forest. Luo Jie said, "We'll rest here for an hour, eat something, and then continue!"
"There's a mountain in front!"
The scouting team came back and reported. Immediately, everyone became excited. This meant that they might be able to escape from their pursuers. As long as they were in the mountains, the hunting vehicles were much less useful, even if they were discovered, they could still resist, unlike on the plains, once their position was exposed, other hunting vehicles would swarm in.
Guo Shier estimated that the hunting vehicles might not be able to fly freely in the mountains, he found that the hunting vehicles' flying height was limited.
Qi Nanshan said, "Everyone, let's try our best to get to the mountains as soon as possible, then we can rest for a while." His tone revealed a sense of relief. After fleeing for a few months, everyone was extremely exhausted. Their combat strength had also dropped by a large margin. They needed to rest for a period of time.
Luo Jie and Qi Nanshan felt that they were lucky. Guo Shier's contribution in this Secret Territory exploration was the greatest, the little guy's performance was extraordinary, no one knew where he learned it from, he had endless escape methods, and in the blink of an eye, he had set up one illusion after another, and the route he took was also strange. He liked to set traps at the most exposed places, so that the people chasing them would suffer.
The team went through the forest. After a few months of running, they were very familiar with the forest, so their speed was very fast, and it only took them one day to reach the mountain.
The mountain was very high, the snow on the peak could be clearly seen from the foot of the mountain. The group of people craned their necks to look up. There were more than a dozen small black dots circling in the sky. They looked like eagles or vultures. Guo Shier smiled bitterly, "This distance is dangerous, there is no cover, I estimate … it will take us twenty minutes to go through."
"Even if it is dangerous, we have to go through, it shouldn't be that easy to be discovered!" Qi Nanshan said, squinting.
Luo Jie said, "Yes, we have to go through. There are only low bushes and weeds in this open space, it can't block our vision. If there is a hunting cart nearby, as long as we go out, we will be completely exposed. "
Guo Shier looked back and said, "Let's wait for it to get dark, the night is the best cover!"
Luo Jie slapped his forehead, "Da Shan, we are really old, that's right! There should be no problem if we wait until it gets dark. "
Qi Nanshan nodded, "Okay, everyone rest first, we will move when it gets dark."
Everyone was very tired, hearing that they could rest, one by one, they collapsed on the ground, without caring about their image, they couldn't wait to sleep. But everyone was very clear, at this time, they had to eat something first, then rest. If they didn't eat, it would be very difficult to recover.
There wasn't much food left. Fortunately, Guo Shi 'er was afraid of starvation in his previous life. He would rather bring less food than other things. Now, most of the people had run out of food, only Guo Shier and the others could take out some food to share, mainly the stewed meat jerky, this stuff was not only filling, but also not easy to spoil, it could be stored in the talisman bag for a long time.
Guo Shier ate with relish, he sighed, "If it wasn't for the talisman bag, I'm afraid we would have been long dead. Sigh, if only we had some hot soup to drink, that would be great! "
Huo Bao swallowed a mouthful of stewed meat, said, "Hot soup … we have finished the flatbread, we also brought a lot of fresh meat, it's a pity we can't barbecue."
Hong Shi laughed, "It's good that we have food, Shier had the foresight to bring so much food, if not everyone would have starved."
Chen Bing said, "After this meal, if we can successfully enter the mountain, we can barbecue food."
Qi Nanshan walked around, occasionally reminding everyone, "After eating, find a place to rest, pay attention to hiding, try to hide your body, and don't be careless … if anyone doesn't hide well and causes trouble for everyone, I won't forgive him!"
They were at the edge of the dense forest. The forest here was very strange, the edge of the forest was very neat, as if it had been cut by a knife. On one side, there were dense and tall trees, and on the other side, there were short bushes and grass. The dividing line was very clear.
Leaving behind two talisman warriors to guard, the others hid in the bushes to sleep.
Ever since the last training session, Chen Hong became closer to Guo Shier. Of course, at her age, she didn't think too much, but she was already used to staying by Guo Shier's side. Luckily, Guo Shier was not even ten years old, he could still pretend to be young and naive, so it was not a big deal for Chen Hong to follow him, she just treated it as a sister.
Chen Hong whispered, "Shier, we're almost out of food."
Guo Shier crouched under the bushes, tilted his head, and looked at the worried Chen Hong. He smiled, "What's the rush? Don't worry, once we enter the mountain, we can hunt and eat fresh meat. Don't worry and sleep, I will wake you up. "Chen Hong nodded, naturally grabbing onto Guo Shier's clothes, and fell into a deep sleep.
The sky gradually darkened, and a large number of birds flew back to their nests, making a lot of noise. Guo Shier pushed Chen Hong, whispering, "Wake up! Little Hong, you can get up now, we're leaving. "
Chen Hong opened her eyes in a daze, asking, "Is it time?"
Guo Shier whispered, "It's going to be dark soon, once it's dark, we have to move." He gathered a few of his companions, saying, "In a while, when we start moving, someone will come and carry us. Remember, don't make a sound, try to cooperate with the person carrying you, and don't interfere with their movements."
Qi Nanshan squatted next to an old tree, quietly observing the front, planning the route of advance. At this moment, there was a violent commotion in the forest, about a kilometer away. The birds that were returning to the forest were startled and flew away. He looked over in surprise and thought to himself, "What startled the birds?"
Suddenly, a group of people sprang out of the forest, quickly running towards the mountain.
Luo Jie and Guo Shier also sensed that something was wrong, and quickly came to Qi Nanshan's side. Luo Jie asked, "What's wrong?" Guo Shier's sharp eyes saw the group of people running. There were about a hundred of them, and all of them were running for their lives.
"It's the Talisman Shepherd Sect! We're in big trouble! "
Guo Shier said, "They're running so openly, they'll definitely be discovered!"
Qi Nanshan raised his head and looked around. His expression changed slightly, saying, "Shier, you're right! They're coming! "
Luo Jie gritted his teeth and cursed, "These idiots! Idiots! "
