Nine Star Hegemony Technique

Chapter 79

In the dense forest, Yinghou looked at the footprints on the ground with a gloomy and terrifying face, because he found that Long Chen was very cunning, and sometimes deliberately left footprints to mislead him.

Because as he walked, Long Chen's footprints disappeared. After a little thought, he knew that after Long Chen walked for a while, he walked back backwards according to the original footprints, and then fled to another place.

It's just that the footprints of the first time are slightly clearer. They were deliberately shown by Yinghou, so that Yinghou spent more time searching.

And Ying Houkong was so angry that he couldn't get angry, Long Chen was too cunning, because sometimes the direction Long Chen walked was exactly where he deliberately left footprints.

Under the falsehood, Yinghou had no choice but to follow honestly, and he felt that Long Chen was not far from him, but he couldn't find it, and his lungs were about to explode.

Now that a day and a night have passed, Yinghou gradually became impatient, but he had no choice but to continue to search based on the footprints.

The two of them started playing hide-and-seek in this boundless forest. Although Long Chen had a certain advantage, he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.

As long as Long Chen wanted to, he could quickly get rid of Yinghou's tracking, but he couldn't do that. He always kept a distance of more than ten miles from Yinghou.

This distance is just enough for a strong tendon-changing realm to feel the hostility, but it is impossible to determine his position. This is Long Chen's intention.

Now that he killed Xia Changfeng, the Fourth Prince sent Marquis Ying to kill him, which meant that the Fourth Prince no longer cared so much about his father.

Now that the entire Long family is in danger, Yinghou is held back by himself at this moment, on the one hand, it is to buy time for Ah Man, so that he can return to the imperial capital quickly.

When the Marquis Ying appeared, Long Chen quietly told Ah Man that no matter who escaped, he would return to the imperial capital first.

Sending his family to the Alchemist Guild, given his relationship with Master Yun Qi, Master Yun Qi would definitely not ignore it. At that time, even if the fourth prince wanted to move the Long family, he still had to consider it.

The other is that as long as Yinghou does not return to the imperial capital for a day, and the fourth prince does not get news of his death, it is unlikely to take action against the Long family.

So there is no way for Long Chen to take a great risk to hold Yinghou back. He has to do it.

While walking cautiously, Long Chen suddenly saw a palm-sized beetle slowly crawling on a big tree.

Seeing the beetle, Long Chen's eyes lit up. He recognized the beetle as "One-horned Bull" because it had a horn on its nose, which was very similar to a bull's horn.

This is a beetle with a very gentle temperament, and it moves very slowly. Although it is only the size of a palm, its strength is astonishing.

Just such a beetle can drag a weight of twenty or thirty catties. Because of its astonishing strength, people put the word "cow" in its name.

Reaching out to hold the palm-sized unicorn in his hand, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly: "Hey, little guy, do me a favor."

Regardless of its anger, he threw the little guy into his pocket and walked forward for a while. Long Chen nodded, this is a good place.

Take out a filament from the interspatial ring, it is black silk, although it is thin, it is very strong, one can lift a hundred kilograms of weight, and most adventurers will carry some on their body.

Whether it is making ropes or setting traps, it is very ideal. The most important thing is that silkworms are artificially bred, and the price is very cheap.

Long Chen took out the black silk, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction. The color of the silk matched the surrounding background, so it was not easy to be found.

I found a dwarf tree as thick as an egg, and pushed it lightly. I felt amazing elasticity, and gently wrapped the silk around the dwarf tree.

The dwarf tree is pulled by the silk and immediately bends, like a bow arm. Once it loses the power of the silk, it will pop out quickly.

When Long Chen did these things, he was careful. If he made a mistake, he might make a loud noise and attract the Marquis Ying.

But think about it, if this trap is set up, once the effect is triggered, all these risks are worth it.

After setting the "slingshot", Long Chen observed the surrounding situation. There were thick thorns on both sides, and there was only one natural and loose path.

When people are running wildly, they will instinctively choose the path of least resistance, so this is an ideal place to place the trigger device.

Arranged several defensive lines of black silk on the ground, checked the distance, no matter what kind of pace the opponent took, he would definitely step on one of them before he felt relieved.

He stretched out his hand to take out the beetle, tied one of its legs with black silk, and placed it on a big tree. The one-horned cow began to crawl slowly, but it didn't crawl randomly, but moved to a place about three feet above the big tree. climb up.

Because there, Long Chen placed a piece of Phalaenopsis petals. Phalaenopsis is a kind of medicinal material, and its petals contain very rich sugar.

And the one-horned ox likes to eat petals the most. Although the petals in Long Chen's hand have dried up, the one-horned ox found it in an instant with its amazing sense of smell, and crawled forward desperately.

The speed of the one-horned ox was really too slow, and it took a full incense stick before it just crawled to the place.

But when the one-horned ox just wanted to enjoy the food, Long Chen shook his hand, and the poor little guy was immediately torn off.

Long Chen estimated the time, and tied a new knot for the one-horned ox. This knot is a slipknot, and a small ring is tied next to the knot. Once the small ring is touched, it will be loosened immediately, and the little guy will be released after that. .

After carefully tying the knot, he tied a stone weighing five or six catties to the other end of the silk, checked it several times, and looked at the crawling route of the one-horned ox.

Make sure that when the unicorn is about to reach the phalaenopsis petals, the slipknot will scrape the dead branch protruding to one side, undoing the knot and letting the stone fall to the ground.

After Long Chen checked the trap from beginning to end, a strange smile appeared on his face. He found a fan-like leaf around him, and then hid furtively behind the big tree.

After a while, Long Chen put the beetle on the tree again, and saw that the beetle was still crawling along the original route, but because it was dragging a stone, the speed was a little slower.

Nodding his head, Long Chen backed away quietly. Now that everything is ready, it is only due to Dongfeng. As for whether he can succeed, it depends on the Marquis Ying. He spread his body and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.

Half an hour later, Yinghou searched carefully for Long Chen's trace, and suddenly there was a strange sound, which was the sound of the rolling stone.

Originally, the sound was very subtle, but to Yinghou who was listening to the surroundings with all his attention, it was like a thunderclap.

"whoosh"

Yinghou didn't even think about it, he galloped in that direction, the speed was as fast as a gust of wind, and the distance of seven or eight miles was reached in an instant.

That sound is definitely not the sound that nature should have. He knew that it should be the sound of accidentally stepping on a stone.

In this dead forest, apart from him, only Long Chen could make such a sound.

Thinking of Long Chen Yinghou felt angry. Last night, he basically didn't rest all night, and he didn't even have time to recover his luck.

The group of damned wild beasts approached him like crazy. Although those wild beasts could not pose a threat to him, they disturbed his healing.

His wounds cannot be healed by pills alone, and must be healed with spiritual energy, but he has never had the time or opportunity to do this.

Unable to maintain peak combat power, this made Yinghou very insecure, so he urgently needed to kill Long Chen and return to the imperial capital to heal his injuries.

It took only a few breaths for Yinghou to arrive at the place where the sound was, but there was no sign of Long Chen here. Under a big tree, there was a rolling stone, and there seemed to be some handwriting on the stone.

Yinghou glanced around and found that there was no Long Chen around. He couldn't help but look a little ugly. He knew that he might have been tricked.

Walking slowly towards the stone, he wanted to see what Long Chen's message was for him. Just after taking a few steps, he suddenly moved his feet, and then a short tree not far away trembled, and a green ball wrapped in leaves moved toward the stone. He flies.

Yinghou Yisheng sneered, swung out the long sword in his hand, and slashed at the ball directly.

"Hmph, little bug..."

"puff"

What he didn't expect was that when his long sword touched the mass, the mass wrapped in green leaves burst open suddenly, and the juice flew out all over the sky.

Because of the sudden incident and the short distance, Yinghou was caught off guard, and was splashed by the juice, and an extremely smelly smell permeated the air.

Yinghou also sprayed a lot in his mouth, and suddenly the stench in his mouth was incomparable. Yinghou couldn't help being shocked, and hurriedly backed away. His first reaction was that this thing might be poisonous.

However, although that thing was extremely smelly, he didn't show any signs of being poisoned, and his blood and qi were functioning normally.

At this time, he found that after he had hit the mechanism, the stone that had fallen on the ground turned its body around, revealing the writing on it:

"A small gift is not a respect. I wanted to give you a big lump, but my stomach is not feeling well recently, and I really don't have enough energy. Please forgive me, Lord Yinghou."

After reading the handwriting, Yinghou suddenly turned pale, looking at the sticky things on his body, his stomach was overwhelmed for a while.

"vomit……"

"Long Chen..."

Yinghou let out a heart-piercing roar, the sound pierced the clouds and rocks, the whole forest trembled, and countless birds and beasts were frightened and fled in all directions.

Long Chen was on a big tree, looking at the flying birds in the distance, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the embarrassment of being hunted down by Yinghou was finally relieved.

Since this day, Yinghou's face became more gloomy, and Long Chen was more careful, not daring to set such a trap again.

After all, if he failed in the arrangement process, he would be in a doomed situation. The previous actions were just to cheer him up and increase his confidence.

Now that everything has been done, it's time for him to stop. Only by being careful can the Ten Thousand Years Ship be saved. He doesn't want the favorable situation he created to be reversed all of a sudden.

After chasing and fleeing, eight days passed quickly. During these eight days, Long Chen escaped during the day and used various skills to get rid of the entanglement of the beast at night, then began to heal his injuries.

Because of the assistance of the Healing Pill, Long Chen recovered extremely quickly, the meridian of his right hand has been fully recovered, and the injuries in his body have also recovered to a minimum.

Since Yinghou killed the beast on the first day and caused trouble for himself, he also began to learn to be smart. When resting at night, he jumped to a high tree, away from the ground, so that he had time to rest and began to heal his injuries. His skills are profound. The recovery speed is also very fast.

On the ninth day, when Long Chen crossed a small stream and entered a dense forest ahead, suddenly there was a movement above his head.

When Long Chen looked up, his expression changed drastically: My life is over!
