They didn't consider the slow waterway anymore. Instead, they found a station and bought four horses.
Before leaving, they washed their bodies thoroughly in the town and changed into a new set of clothes.
Shen Luo also used a little trick to secretly put the clothes they were wearing into a wagon that was going in another direction.
After doing all this, they immediately mounted their horses and went on their way. They rode one horse and led the other one. Every four hours, they would switch with all their strength. Soon, they had traveled 200 miles, but Gu Hualing still hadn't appeared.
"It seems that Gu Hualing is really tracking us with his sense of smell. We've probably shaken him off," Bai Xiaotian said happily.
"I hope so," Shen Luo said indifferently. His heart was still shrouded by a shadow.
As soon as his voice fell, his body suddenly shook. He turned his head and looked behind him. His face instantly became a little ugly.
He saw a gray dot appear in the sky behind him. It quickly became bigger and was approaching them.
Who else could it be but Gu Hualing?
Bai Xiaotian also noticed the figure behind him. He couldn't help but smile helplessly.
After fighting with Gu Hualing twice, he already understood the huge difference in strength between the two of them and Gu Hualing. He immediately urged his horse to approach Shen Luo and grabbed him. Then, he activated the Flying Escape Talisman and rushed into the sky without hesitation.
Gu Hualing flew forward for one or two miles. The purple light on the bone wings on his back quickly dimmed and finally disappeared completely.
Her body also fell down involuntarily. She landed lightly on the official road. Her bright eyes flashed slightly as she looked at the four horses that were running away in all directions. There wasn't much annoyance on her pretty face.
"Let's see how many more times you can use this Flying Escape Charm," Gu Hualing said with a chuckle. He strode forward quickly.
In the next few days, Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian could be said to have used all sorts of methods, such as changing the way they traveled, hiding within the merchant group, and even spending money to hire a few people with similar figures to the two of them to wear their clothes in an attempt to pass themselves off as real people. However, Gu Hualing's tracking technique was truly exquisite, and all the methods they used were seen through by him in the end without exception. The shortest was half a day, and the longest was not even a day, and Gu Hualing would still catch up to them.
Every time they were caught, Bai Xiaotian did not dare to be entangled. He immediately activated the Flying Escape Talisman and escaped with Shen Luo.
The two of them secretly complained incessantly. Even if they were tired and hungry, they didn't dare to stay in one place for too long, hoping to reach the Bai Family as soon as possible.
There was a small town more than a thousand miles away from Mount Qinghua. It was called Green Horse Town because there was a lake called Green Horse Lake outside the town.
The residents of Green Horse Town farmed and fished for a living. They worked from sunrise to sunset, and their lives were quite peaceful.
At this moment, dusk had arrived. The farmers and fishermen by the lake outside the town had already returned home, and there was no one in the surroundings.
A ball of green light appeared in the distant horizon and flew over with incomparable speed. When it flew above the lake, the green light suddenly flickered violently and became dimmer and dimmer. In the end, it flickered a few times before finally disappearing completely.
Two figures descended from the sky and staggered to land at the edge of the lake. It was precisely Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian.
Bai Xiaotian held a talisman with a faint green light in his hand. The talisman markings on the talisman were extremely dim.
With a bang, the talisman spontaneously combusted for no reason and instantly turned into a ball of ash. It was blown by the lake wind and disappeared without a trace.
Although Bai Xiaotian had expected this, his expression was still rather unsightly.
Shen Luo's expression sank slightly as his gaze swept the surroundings and he asked, "Senior Brother Bai, how far is this place from Jianye City?"
"There are still at least three days of travel. Without the Flying Escape Talisman, I'm afraid that it won't be long before Gu Hualing catches up to us. It seems that us brothers still have to fight to the death. As long as we can slightly injure this woman, we might have a chance if we escape. "Bai Xiaotian stroked his chin and raised his head to look at Shen Luo as he pondered and said.
"Good! Since Brother Bai has said so, I, Shen Luo, will also risk my life to accompany you! "Shen Luo heard this and replied without hesitation.
Bai Xiaotian patted Shen Luo's shoulder and was about to take a step forward, but he was stopped by Shen Luo's hand. "There's no time to lose, let's go!"
"Wait! If we continue to flee now and wait for Gu Hualing to arrive, we will be in a passive position. Why don't we just stay here and wait for the enemy to arrive? "
"Hmm … That's good too. If we have time, I happen to have some methods to set up a trap or two." Bai Xiaotian heard this and rubbed his palms as he looked around, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Then, under Shen Luo's gaze, Bai Xiaotian took out a black cloth bag from his chest. The surface of the bag was extremely smooth and had some fish-scale-like patterns. Obviously, it was not an ordinary item.
He opened the cloth bag and took out some things from it. It was a dozen pieces of silver Yujue, eight small golden flags, two white medicine bottles, and seven to eight Primordial Stones.
"Senior Brother Bai, are these items for setting up a Spell Formation?" Shen Luo looked at the Yujue and small flags and recalled the situation in the dream where Yu Yan and the others fought against the Demon Wolf.
"You have good eyesight! These are Spell Flags and Spell Disks. I don't have time to explain it to you. Keep watch for me. "Bai Xiaotian looked at Shen Luo with a look of approval and said.
As he spoke, his hands did not stop moving. He placed the Yujue and small flags on the ground and formed a circle with a diameter of five feet.
Bai Xiaotian then took six Primordial Stones and placed them on the six nodes of the circular Spell Formation. He stood up and made a gesture while chanting.
Immediately, a golden light rose from within the Spell Formation and flowed slowly around the Spell Formation. A whirlwind suddenly appeared near the Spell Formation and circled around it.
"Junior Brother Shen, the Spell Formation is almost done. Next, I will perform a secret technique in the Spell Formation," Bai Xiaotian said to Shen Luo after he checked every corner of the Spell Formation and confirmed that there were no mistakes.
"Don't worry. I will pay attention to the movements around me," Shen Luo replied.
Bai Xiaotian nodded and sat cross-legged in the center of the Spell Formation. He closed his eyes.
His hands moved quickly in front of him like a wheel. Soon, a layer of red light rose from his body. The golden light in the Spell Formation immediately became brighter and the speed of its circulation increased significantly.
When Shen Luo saw this, he walked to an open space behind him and sat down. Then, he took out a stone box from the bag on his back. He opened it, and took out a stack of charm papers, a box of cinnabar, and a charm brush.
According to his previous experience, Gu Hualing should take at least half a day to arrive. He could take the opportunity to draw a few Spell Charms.
Since the black dog's blood could not be stored for long, he did not prepare it. However, it was not a problem for him now.
Shen Luo used a small knife to cut his finger and took some blood. He mixed it with cinnabar and prepared to make Spell Ink.
The Spell Charms with black dog's blood was drawn because of the Yang Qi in it. His Minor Yang Art was completed. Especially after he became a Qi Refining Stage cultivator, the Yang Qi in his blood was far more than dog's blood. It was not a problem for him to draw Spell Charms.
He quickly finished making the Spell Ink. After he took a breath and calmed his mind, he began to draw Spell Charms with the brush.
After half an hour, the stack of Spell Papers in front of Shen Luo was used up. Instead, there were three Spell Charms placed neatly. Two were Thunder Charms and one was Ghost Charms.
"Three Spell Charms it is," Shen Luo sighed secretly. He put the three Spell Charms into his sleeve and raised his head.
