My plug-in is a fairy grass

Chapter 302 Clue Interruption
early morning
Daoist He Chuan stood on that remote forest path, frowning in silence.

Next to him, a white-clothed disciple in his thirties with a straight nose held a small animal about a foot long in his hand, and said to the several people following him:
"Yesterday, Qin Zhu must have hid in the forest from here."

Everyone nodded.Someone looked at his little beast and said with a smile:
"With Senior Brother Liu's breath-breathing dog here, even if that demon girl flees to the ends of the earth, she must be found."

The breath-breathing dog he was talking about was the golden-colored little fox-like beast in Senior Brother Liu's hand.This beast can remember the extremely faint breath of a monk, and is best at tracking it.

"Brother is too well-known." Brother Liu said humbly, but his expression was faintly complacent.

Someone worried and asked: "Last night, there was a spring rain in this mountain. I don't know how much of the witch's breath is left?"

"Even if there is only one trace, my beast pet will never miss it." Senior Brother Liu said confidently.

He is a disciple of the Hall of Hundred Beasts of Yunxiao Sect. He received the notice from the hall early this morning, so he took the breath dog and changed several teleportation arrays in a row. Finally, Yujian flew for dozens of miles before rushing to Lang Mountain.

After arriving, let the pet dog sniff the fake Yan Hongzhu and the things left in the room, and then track it all the way here, which is hard work.

"Okay, time is running out, let's continue." Hechuan Shangren interrupted everyone's chatting.

Brother Liu hurriedly responded respectfully, took out a piece of flesh and blood from an unknown monster, and fed it to the breath-breathing dog.

Keep searching.

The breath-breathing dog came to the bush yesterday and barked several times in a row.

"Uncle Qi, the demon girl should hide here for ten breaths." Senior Brother Liu said.

He Kawakami gave a soft "hmm".

Senior Brother Liu stopped talking, and whispered a few words in his pet's ear, and the breath-breathing dog cheered up and walked towards the depths of the mountain forest.

Last night, it rained lightly all night. At this time, clouds and mists were growing in the mountains and forests, and they floated on people's faces, bringing bursts of dampness and coolness.And among the flowers, plants and trees, countless untouched drops of greasy water splashed on the people, quickly making the group of people wet.

Although they are monks, they can dry their clothes with spells, but the humidity is endless and annoying.

Only Hechuan people walked forward leisurely with their hands behind their backs, completely spotless.Walking in the mountains is like walking on flat ground.

The people walked deeper and deeper, and soon they were in the vast jungle, surrounded by dense layers of ancient trees, towering to the sky, with vines intertwined and moss everywhere.From time to time, there are crisp birdsong and low animal roars in the forest, making it even darker and quieter.

From time to time, someone looked suspiciously at the breath-breathing dog. Seeing the little beast wagging its tail back and forth and walking briskly without any intention of stopping, they knew that there was no problem with its tracking, so they cheered up and continued to move forward.

An hour later, I estimated that I had walked twenty or thirty li in the deep mountains, when a valley suddenly appeared in front of me.

On both sides of the valley, there are precipitous mountains standing on cliffs, but in the middle, the terrain is flat, surrounded by trees, it is elegant and quiet.What's even more rare is that near the entrance of this valley, there is a lake formed by several mountain springs, about three to four hundred acres in size.The surface of the lake is as smooth as a mirror, and the heart of the lake is trembling, bottomless.The water of the lake is even more clear, the green peaks are reflected on the water surface, and the sand and stones at the bottom are clear and countable.

The breath-breathing dog came to a bluestone by the lake, barked wildly at the lake, then whimpered, with its tail folded, and returned to Senior Brother Liu dejectedly.

"What's going on?" Kawakami asked.

Senior Brother Liu knelt down and patted his pet's forehead, exchanged for a while, then stood up, cupped his hands and said:
"Uncle Qi, the demon girl should have entered the lake from here yesterday, and then her aura also disappeared."

He Chuan Shangren frowned, stared at the lake for a few breaths, kicked off again, and was already suspended in mid-air, looking around.

In front of the lake, there is a waterfall ten feet high. Below the waterfall is a trickling stream, which is only two or three feet wide and only a few feet deep.

Flying along the stream for a few miles with the people from Chuan Shang, I saw the stream rushing down, the current was quite fast, and the way forward was winding and winding, with no end in sight.

He quickly turned back, came to Senior Brother Liu, and asked:

"If the demon girl was in the water the whole time, there would be no way to detect her breath."

"Return to Master Uncle. Breath-absorbing dogs are not good at swimming, and they can't judge each other's breath from underwater."

"What if we go ashore?"

"After going ashore, the breath was exposed," Senior Brother Liu said affirmatively, "The breath-absorbing dog can tell."

"Very good!" He Chuan Shangren nodded and ordered:

"Quanfeng, take a group of people and dive into this lake to see if there are dark holes or anything like that."

Kuang Quanfeng clasped his hands, led four disciples, each designated an area, took off his robe, and jumped into the lake.

"Follow me," He Chuan Shangren said to Senior Brother Liu, "Let's go along this small river and check left and right."

"I would like to obey my uncle's orders." Brother Liu replied.

……

An hour later, He Chuan Shangren took Senior Brother Liu back to this unnamed small lake.Over there, Kuang Quanfeng and his four disciples have also finished their investigation and are resting by the lake.

"How's the situation?" Kawakami asked.

"Uncle Qi, the five of us searched the entire bottom of the lake and found three dark caves. We searched all of them. They are the caves of water beasts, and there is no trace of the demon girl."

"Well," He Chuan Shangren nodded slightly, and also explained his situation:
"I took Martial Nephew Liu along the stream in front of me, and searched left and right for twenty miles, but found nothing."

Everyone was silent for a moment.

The woman chose to enter the water, obviously considering the pursuit of spirit beasts such as the breath-breathing dog.And this stream flows down the mountain, and it goes tens of millions of miles. Anywhere is a place where she may go ashore, so where can she find it?
After tracing to this step, the clue can be said to be broken.

At this moment, a bright light flashed across the sky, He Chuan Shangren stretched out his hand, and a paper crane fell into his hand.

Opening the paper crane, he and Kawakami were overjoyed.

"The master of the hall is here." He said the content of the paper crane.

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words.

He Chuan pondered for a moment, and confessed:

"Quanfeng, I'll go back, and you can't give up. I'll send you another group of people. You follow this nephew Liu, along this stream, and continue to search!"

"If you have any news, report it quickly!"

"Follow the palace lord's orders!" Kuang Quanfeng respectfully obeyed.

Brother Liu here gave a wry smile. He thought it was an easy task, but now it has become a chore.At the moment, he also bowed his hands, not daring to disobey.

"I'll repay you over there at the Hall of Beasts." He Chuan Shangren comforted him with kind words.

Then we have to find that witch!Senior brother Liu was slandered in his heart, feeling hopeless.
