Raising Gu Notes

(Chapter 1 is here. Thank you Xiaoling Children's Shoes for your support.)

The three of Xie Lin couldn't help being extremely surprised when they found that the wood chips on the ground had disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.

Even the stick that Ba Xiaolan threw on the ground just now was gone, only the towel remained on the ground.

No one knows how the chips are missing.

Needless to say, Ba Xiaolan, Xie Lin and Zhang Lang were all focused on Ba Xiaolan's hands just now, and they didn't even notice that these wood chips would suddenly disappear.

Xie Lin turned his head to look at Smelly and Huohuo, only to find that Smelly and Huohuo also looked very dazed, obviously they didn't even notice how the wood chips were missing.

The three of Xie Lin's faces were full of surprise and puzzlement, but their hearts couldn't help sinking.

"Let's go!" After thinking for a moment, Xie Lin said, and quickly left the place with Zhang Lang and Ba Xiaolan.

The sudden disappearance of these pieces of wood means that the opponent's Gu technique has not been completely cracked by Xie Lin and the others, and it is very dangerous to stay here. God knows when, the other party will secretly attack them again, so Xie Lin doesn't want to be here either. What a delay, decided to leave here as soon as possible.

As for those questions, although Xie Lin also wanted to know the answers, the other party obviously came prepared, and staying here would be of no benefit to them.

The three of them were silent all the way, Smelly and Huohuo led the way, and Xie Lin was on guard.

After walking three or four miles in one breath, there was no accident, and Xie Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

His mood is also somewhat contradictory. Before he ignored the puppet who disappeared one after another, he suddenly decided to leave. Originally, he deliberately wanted to attract the person who was working in the dark to show up. But now, he just simply wants to leave there. Showing up to stop him, Xie Lin didn't have any hope.

He can see it now. For some reason, the other party doesn't seem to want to show up. Even if he wants to stop or harm Xie Lin and the others, he probably won't show up. Instead, he will continue to hide in the dark, looking for opportunities to plot and sneak attack Schelling them.

Schelling also didn't like this feeling of being always on tenterhooks.

Although he didn't have much confidence in his own strength, he would rather the other party show up and fight face to face, rather than keep stumbling him behind the scenes.

Up to now, Schelling has even become a little impetuous.

Fortunately, Ye Xia told him before that people in the Gu sect often do not fight face to face, and the most common method used by Gu masters is to plot sneak attacks and conspiracies, because the struggle between Gu masters exposes their faces and Tracking is not a wise thing to do.

Now Xie Lin really realized this point, he thought about what Ye Xia said carefully, and felt that he had gained something, and the impetuous feeling in his heart lessened a lot.

Xie Lin is becoming more and more patient now, not as impatient as before.Their goal is to find the patriarch that the middle-aged man mentioned earlier. He didn't think that the so-called patriarch would happen to be in the place where the hexagonal watchtower was located, so although he was also a little curious, he didn't think too much about leaving this place. Much regret.

As long as they move forward, since the other party doesn't want them to meet the patriarch, they will definitely use various means to stop them.As the saying goes, when soldiers come, they will block the water and the earth will cover them. Xie Lin is also prepared to respond to all changes without change. As long as the opponent's methods are resolved one by one, the opponent will show up sooner or later.

According to Xie Lin's analysis, the other party has been unwilling to show up. Apart from what Ye Xia said, out of their own safety needs and to put pressure on them, there are nothing less than two possibilities. One may be that the other party does not want Xie Lin to show up. When they saw his true face, as for his purpose, it is difficult to guess at present. Xie Lin had guessed whether the other party might be someone they recognized, but after thinking about it, he ruled out this guess. There are only a handful of masters, and it is unlikely that he will recognize the other party; another possibility is that the other party has some scruples, so he refuses to show up, and has been hiding in the dark, trying to plot and sneak attack them. What to be afraid of, Xie Lin can't guess casually, after all, the premise is guesswork, and guessing the latter is not very reliable.

After making up his mind, Xie Lin also had a feeling of enlightenment.

After walking for a few miles, seeing that Zhang Lang and Ba Xiaolan were quite tired, Xie Lin asked them to stop, and they chose a place with a dry leeward wind and a wide view, and set up two tents. After eating something, he asked Zhang Lang and Ba Xiaolan to go to bed and rest, and wait until dawn before heading on their way.

Zhang Lang and Ba Xiaolan were not hypocritical, they gave Xie Lin a few words of advice, and then went to sleep in the tent.

Schelling stayed outside.

Smelly and Huohuo guarded Xie Lin. Although Xie Lin didn't ask them what to do, the two little guys turned their heads and looked around from time to time, and they were always vigilant.

After Xie Lin whistled, the big black flew down, but soon it flew back to the sky, circling in the sky.Probably it also saw that there were Smelly and Huohuo guarding the ground, so it was not needed to guard Xie Lin for the time being, so it returned to the sky and watched condescendingly.

Xie Lin didn't feel sleepy at first, so he persuaded Smelly and Huo Huo to sleep for a while, but the two little guys were full of fighting spirit and refused to sleep. Seeing this, Xie Lin was a little helpless, but also quite relieved .

So he found some hay, spread it on the ground, and slept with his clothes on.

Probably because of the stinky guards, Xie Lin also fell into the dream very quickly.

Now Schelling's physique is getting better and better, and his adaptability is getting stronger and stronger.

And Xie Lin slept very soundly this time.

But Ba Xiaolan and Zhang Lang woke up repeatedly in the middle of the night. Ba Xiaolan came out of the tent twice. After looking outside, she saw Xie Lin lying on the ground sleeping. Looking alert, she smiled and went back to sleep without saying anything, and she didn't persuade Xie Lin to sleep in the tent for a while, because she also knew that even if she persuaded Xie Lin, Xie Lin would not agree of.

After Zhang Lang woke up, he tiptoed to Xie Lin's side, looked at Xie Lin, and sat down beside him.

Compared to usual, he always had a hippie smiling face and seemed heartless and didn't care about anything. At this time, he had a serious face, his brows were also furrowed, and he looked preoccupied.Even Xie Lin rarely saw him like this.

He sat silently beside Schelling for a while, then sighed softly, and tiptoed back again.

When Xie Lin woke up, it was already daylight, the eastern sky was already white, and the sun would soon rise.

Schelling also felt refreshed.Compared with before, his physique is quite different now, and his energy is much higher than in the past. Usually, even if he only sleeps for an hour or two, he is still full of energy and has no effect. This night, he slept for three or four hours. Naturally It feels very good.

To Xie Lin's slight surprise, Zhang Lang and Ba Xiaolan also got up.

Moreover, they had put away the tent and were sitting on the edge, quietly waiting for Xie Lin to wake up.

The three of them ate something, then packed up their things again and continued walking east.

The three of them also relaxed their moods, and their anxious minds became much calmer.

But along the way, the three of them did not dare to relax their vigilance.

Although they walked deep into the canyon, along the way, there were more and more towers of that kind, and they became denser and denser.

These watchtowers are generally located on the left side of the canyon, that is, on the south side of the cliffs and mountains on the left side of the canyon. They are of different sizes and heights. There are four-cornered watchtowers, hexagonal watchtowers, and octagonal watchtowers, and the colors are slightly different.

It's just that when Xie Lin and the others passed by, they never saw a single figure.Although most of these watchtowers were built with double-storey wooden houses, and some of them looked quite new, as if they had been built not long ago, but the doors of these houses were closed, and it seemed that no one lived there.

Xie Lin and the others did not approach, but just shouted from a distance.And every time, no one responded.

Although Xie Lin and the others also knew that this was very abnormal, after experiencing the lesson last time, they all learned to behave well and did not go up to knock on the door or take a closer look.

Obviously the other party is also prepared.They also don't want to take risks easily.

But along the way, under the leadership of Smelly and Huohuo, they didn't encounter any accidents, and the progress was quite fast.

It’s just that as more and more watchtowers and dwellings are encountered, there is no one. Compared with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers in the canyon, it is full of vitality. It can be said that the contrast is obvious. The atmosphere is indescribably oppressive.

The three of them seldom spoke along the way, they hurried on the road silently, trying to save energy as much as possible.

As for where the patriarch was mentioned by the middle-aged man, Xie Lin and the others didn't know much about it.However, most of the watchtowers they encountered along the way were four-corner or hexagonal watchtowers, and even octagonal watchtowers were not very common.As for the ten-corner watchtower and the twelve-corner watchtower, they had never seen any of them.

So although they didn't take a closer look at the watchtowers they encountered, they didn't think that they would miss the so-called patriarch.Judging from the current situation, they have not yet entered the depths of the canyon. The distribution of these watchtowers is relatively scattered, and they do not form villages. As the head of a clan, it is unlikely that they will live in such a place.

The further you go in, there are more and more watchtowers, and they are also more and more dense. In some places, watchtowers are built together in groups of three or four, which looks more magnificent.

But without exception, Xie Lin and the others still couldn't see a single figure.

But Xie Lin and the others are becoming more and more indifferent, because they feel that as long as they keep walking, they will definitely be able to reach the most prosperous and lively places
