Chapter 678 Finding Liu Si
Chapter 678 Finding Liu Si
He Yuzhu smiled, thought for a moment and said, "Let's look for someone first. There are many Taoists in this area, so maybe we can find some clues. If we can't find anyone, we can think of other ways to find the monster."
Afterwards, He Yuzhu, Lao Si and Xiao Li began to search everywhere. They shuttled through the mountains and forests, carefully searching every possible place where people might be hiding, not missing any clues. However, those monks seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth. They searched for a long time, but still did not know where these people were hiding, and found nothing.
Just when they were about to give up looking for the cultivator and turn to look for Liu Si, and by the way, see if Elder Qingyi had contacted the outside world, suddenly, two fox demons came out from the woods nearby. One of the fox demons looked at Xiao Li and asked with a smile: "Xiao Li, are these two your friends?"
Xiaoli nodded and responded: "Yes, they are all my good friends."
You know, under normal circumstances, the foxes feed on rabbits. But now the demons are facing a common enemy, and it is time to unite against the enemy, so the conflicts between these races have been temporarily shelved, and they can't care so much.
Another member of the Fox Clan cast his gaze towards He Yuzhu. After looking him up and down, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He said, "Are you from the Jiaolong Clan? I heard that the Jiaolong Clan has always lived in seclusion, but I didn't expect that they have come out now."
He Yuzhu's heart moved, and a confident smile appeared on his face. He said, "Yes, now is the perfect time to control the human race. With such a great opportunity, we naturally have to come out and share a piece of the pie."
After hearing this, the people of the Fox Clan couldn't help but think to themselves, the Dragon Clan has always been mysterious and powerful, and has always lived in seclusion, but now they are also involved. It seems that this time the Demon Clan really has hope of changing the situation.
Seeing the opportunity, He Yuzhu took Xiaoli to continue looking for others. The fourth brother came to He Yuzhu and asked in a low voice: "Master, where should we go to find Elder Qingyi? In this vast forest, where should we start?"
He Yuzhu observed the surrounding environment and said, "Don't worry, Lao Si. Elder Qingyi left us a signal before. As long as we pay close attention and follow the guidance of the signal, we will definitely be able to find the elders. As for what to do after we find them, we will plan it later."
He Yuzhu was still thinking that the stone sword that Elder Qingyi gave him last time might play an unexpected role in the next action. But the most urgent task was to find Elder Qingyi first. After all, it was not certain whether Liu Si was in his hands. Only by finding Elder Qingyi could he learn more about the situation and make a better plan for the next step.
Xiaoli followed He Yuzhu silently, with light steps, as if afraid to disturb him. He Yuzhu noticed Xiaoli following him, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart. He couldn't help but look back at her and asked: "Since you already know our identities, why do you still follow me?"
Xiaoli tilted his head slightly, with an innocent smile on his face, and a playful and dependent look in his eyes. He said, "I am a little monster, but I don't have any special abilities. In this dangerous place, I thought you are so powerful that you will definitely protect me. Don't worry, I won't ask too much. I don't know anything."
Seeing this, the fourth brother became alert. He hurriedly pulled He Yuzhu aside and said in a low voice: "Master, this little fox has been following us. Maybe she wants to find out some news. In my opinion, we'd better not let her follow us. What if she has ulterior motives, we will be in danger." The fourth brother's eyes revealed worry and alertness, and he stared at the little fox not far away.
He Yuzhu was a little unsure about Xiaoli's intentions at this time, but he looked at Lao Si and said, "Alright, she is our savior after all. If it weren't for her, we would have been in trouble. Just follow her. The most important thing for us right now is to find Elder Qingyi and the others. Don't lose the big picture because of the small one."
The fourth brother wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw He Yuzhu glaring at him seriously, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue, closed his mouth helplessly, and said no more.
Although He Yuzhu agreed to let Xiaoli follow him, he was not without precautions. He began to carefully look for the mark left by Elder Qingyi, and scanned the surrounding environment carefully.
Seeing He Yuzhu searching intently, Xiaoli became curious and asked, "Yuzhu, what kind of mark do you think Elder Qingyi left behind? Tell me about it, and I can help you look for it when the time comes."
He Yuzhu smiled slightly, shook his head gently, and said, "You should just follow me. You can't find this mark just by me telling you. It requires a specific method and keen observation. Just follow me."
After hearing this, Xiaoli wanted to argue a few more words, but seeing He Yuzhu's focused expression, she finally said nothing. She had to continue following He Yuzhu obediently, but looking around curiously.
He Yuzhu carefully checked every blade of grass, every rock, and every stone around him, not missing any corner that might have left a mark. Finally, he found a unique signal left by Elder Qingyi on a hidden stone. He was delighted, but he didn't show it on the surface. After all, the fewer people who knew about this, the better, to avoid complications.
He Yuzhu followed the instructions left by Elder Qingyi and led everyone to a cave. The area around the cave was unusually quiet, filled with a mysterious atmosphere, and surrounded by weeds, but no one was seen.
Xiaoli looked at the empty cave in front of him and couldn't help but frowned. He asked He Yuzhu in confusion: "Did we come to the wrong place? This place is deserted and there is no one here."
He Yuzhu remained calm, with a soothing smile on his face, and said, "Don't worry, Elder Qingyi is always cautious in doing things. Since he asked us to come here, he must have made some arrangements. Maybe Elder Qingyi will come over soon."
Sure enough, not long after He Yuzhu finished speaking, Elder Qingyi appeared from the woods nearby. He walked quickly to He Yuzhu and asked anxiously, "Master, how is it going? Have you found out where those people are being held?"
He Yuzhu shook his head helplessly, his face full of worry, and said: "No, I really have no clue, I have no idea where they are being held. By the way, I heard that you arrested Liu Si?"
Qing nodded, a trace of annoyance on his face, and said: "I originally thought that if I caught him, I could ask him how to get out, but I didn't expect that Liu Si was so tight-lipped and didn't know anything. It's really troublesome."
