Chapter 17 Encounter in the Jungle

He Yiming left Zhuangzi with the five Zhuangzi assigned to him and rushed towards the county town.

After seeing his own section of the road, he vaguely guessed that this time, there was basically nothing he had about him.

Because if they get along with each other, the idiot knows that they can't just pass the county road like this. But if this person is an idiot, he will never be able to escape from Linqiu County and still lively and not be arrested. Therefore, unless Hu Bin is hot-headed, he will definitely not be able to meet him.

I looked at the five monks around me, and they were all the most elite candidates trained in the village.

In addition to those aristocratic families, there are very few people who can cultivate internal energy. There are hundreds of servants in the Hejia Village and the strong men who cultivated them. He Wude is not bad for them and has taught internal energy cultivation techniques, but because of the different conditions for cultivation and under conscious control, it is already an amazing thing to be able to cultivate to the third level.

The five Zhuang Dings who followed him all had the third level of internal strength cultivation, and each of them was proficient in at least one combat technique.

This is different from the requirements of the children of the legitimate children. For three generations of children like He Yiming, they are not allowed to contact any combat skills without breaking through the fifth level of internal strength. And when these monks are at the third level of internal strength, they will be awarded the simplest combat skills. In this way, although their combat power has indeed improved a lot, it is difficult to achieve any higher achievements on the road to the cultivation of internal strength.

This is the difference between direct children and ordinary Zhuang Ding. Basically all aristocratic families will choose to do this.

※※※※

After half a day of traveling with the Cheng family, I finally arrived at the reserved location.

This is a station leading to the county road. Stop here, it can be considered as looking at each other.

Since he was close to the county town, of course he wanted to meet his parents. However, after asking, he found out that the two of them were not in the county town, but also joined the search team.

Although he felt quite regretful, he also lost the idea of ​​entering the city and asked the people from the Cheng family about Hu Bin.

In Taicang County, there are three families of practitioners, namely the He family, the Xu family and the Cheng family.

Among the He family and the Xu family, there is a master who has reached the level 10 internal strength. In a mere remote county, this is already the absolute peak combat power. Although the Cheng family does not have a master of level 10 internal strength, their family is the oldest family in Taicang County. Their power in the county is deeply rooted, far from being comparable to Hejiazhuang founded by He Wude, an outsider.

Even the Chengshou master of the county town is from the Cheng family.

However, if it weren't for this, He Wude wouldn't have given the Cheng family this way and sent all the sixth-level children in the family to help.

After private understanding, He Yiming finally understood why the Cheng family was so reluctant to capture or kill a wanted criminal without hesitation.

Because Hu Bin immediately fled after committing a heinous crime and was sentenced to death, but when he fled, he actually killed Shangguan on the spot. This was definitely something that the court could not tolerate. At the same time, the Shangguan family who was killed also privately promised many benefits, which is the real reason why the Cheng family is so concerned about this matter.

After waiting for more than a day in the inn, the initial excitement had long disappeared.

If he had known this, he would have been practicing slowly at home.

He saw through Hu Bin's impossible for him to come here, but he was not the only one who could come here. Even the five Zhuang Dians under him and some ordinary officers and soldiers in the post station understood this, so the atmosphere in the entire post station was not tense.

He Yiming finally couldn't bear it. After giving instructions to the subordinates, he left the station and headed to the back mountain.

Although this inn is built on the official road, the environment of Taicang County is not a vast river. Behind the inn, there is a continuous mountain range. He Yiming suddenly became interested in it when he was bored, so he entered it.

But he didn't know that just half an hour after he entered the mountain group, he urgently reported that Hu Bin had already fled to the place along the path in the back mountain.

Several patriarchs and the officers and soldiers in the inn looked at each other and quickly divided half of the people into the back mountain to look for He Yiming, but how could they find the people based on this?

※※※※

After He Yiming entered the mountain, he was like a fish entering the sea, shuttled rapidly through the mountains and forests.

He has rich experience in the jungle in the mountains. Hejiazhuang is located at the foot of the mountain, and the jungle is far beyond comparison here.

After walking around, he did not encounter any large animals worth his attack. As for some hares and little guys inside the pheasant, they did not take them in his eyes.

He shook his head slightly. After all, this is a forest close to the official road, which is far less than the old forest in the deep mountains behind Hejiazhuang.

Just as he was about to turn around, he heard a vague sound in his ears.

His steps paused slightly, and he listened carefully, and found that some wild beast seemed to be running fast not far away. What really surprised He Yiming was that the wild beast actually brought him a sense of danger.

He was shocked and immediately judged that this was definitely not a small animal. Unexpectedly, there would be traces of large beasts in this forest. After hesitating for a moment, He Yiming exerted force under his feet and chased in that direction.

Although the beast's movements were quick, it was obviously not enough to use all its strength, so He Yiming still easily chased after him. However, when he approached carefully, he found that the sound of the beast running had been lost there.

He Yiming became more and more careful. He had experience in dealing with wild beasts and knew that this guy must have heard the sound he made when he was chasing quickly, so he became gentler.

However, at this moment, He Yiming was full of confidence in himself. When his internal strength was only six levels and he had not practiced combat skills, he could already defeat beasts like the fox bear. Now his combat power has been greatly improved, so he naturally would not take any beasts to heart.

If it were in that kind of real old forest, there might be some beasts that made him afraid of, but in this environment, he would not believe that there would be beasts that were more powerful than fox bears.

With a few ups and downs, He Yiming had already arrived at the route the beast had passed through. His eyes glanced nearby and his heart suddenly rose.

Because he saw a footprint. Although the footprint was extremely light, it was just left on a weed, He Yiming had already confirmed that it was not the footprint of a beast, but the footprint of a human being.

He hesitated for a moment, took a few steps back, observed carefully for a while, and his face became more and more serious.

Through the traces left nearby, He Yiming was able to confirm that the person who just passed by was definitely a human, and a cultivator with good internal strength. This cultivator has a certain understanding of the jungle and has not left too many traces along the way, but this person gave him the feeling that he was quite frustrated, otherwise these traces might not have been left behind.

The powerful internal strength began to flow slowly in his body. When He Yiming looked up and looked forward, the dangerous feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.

Although there was no movement ahead of him, he had a feeling that the danger was approaching.

A thought suddenly flashed in his heart. The man did not leave just now, but was approaching him. It seemed that he was trying to cause trouble for himself.

Although this feeling is a bit weird, He Yiming is sure that he is not wrong.

He took a deep breath of cold air in the jungle, and He Yiming's spirit was immediately revived. Apart from his own brothers, he had never had any conflicts with others.

This is certainly because of his age, but more because in this county, there are not many people who dare to be enemies with the young master of the He family.

But today, he could be sure that the other party would never care about his identity as the Sixth Master of Hejiazhuang.

Suddenly, He Yiming showed a warning in his heart. He threw himself to his side without thinking, then rolled on the ground regardless of his identity. Until he arrived at a big tree, his feet jumped up quickly as if they were loaded with springs.

Until now, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from his ears, and there was an extra crossbow arrow at the place where he was originally fighting.

After seeing this crossbow arrow, He Yiming felt a little cold in his heart, and even his hands and feet seemed to be a little cold.

Unexpectedly, the other party made a desperate move without even saying a word. If he had been shot by this crossbow just now, there would definitely be no good ending.

Crossbow arrows are not something that ordinary people can have, but standard equipment in the army. However, most of the real powerful families have such self-protection equipment. Hejiazhuang is naturally no exception. He Yiming has not had much time to contact crossbow arrows, so he can see the origin of this murder weapon at a glance.

His heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot. The movement just now was definitely a subconscious reaction. If he slowed down a little, he would be seriously injured at this moment.
