Chapter 469 First Meeting

Meng Qi was unmoved and was not dazzled by the people coming in and out. Although everyone could leave with news for the Wolf King, he did not rush to choose the most timid and suspicious person to follow.

Because he was sure that the Wolf King had caused public outrage on the grassland. Even if the noble shamans who were high up might not care too much, the victims like Agula and the young masters who were panicked by the Wolf King, if they united, would be enough to tear Na Risu apart. So if he didn't want to be the target of public criticism, he would definitely let his confidants handle the contact with the Wolf King or even complete it himself, and there would be no possibility of news leaking out!

Of course, all of this is based on the premise that Na Risu really collected intelligence for the Wolf King.

Meng Qi waited patiently, like a hunter who had been around for many years, without any impetuousness in his heart. The people who entered the tent and those who left in a hurry all appeared clearly in his mind and disappeared without a trace. They were all ordinary subordinates of Na Risu, and none of them could be called confidants.

It was a gloomy winter day with no sun. After half an hour, the number of people coming and going began to decrease. The snow piled up on the top of the tent, making Meng Qi feel cold all over.

Suddenly, a figure jumped into Meng Qi's sight. He was wearing a wolfskin coat, lowered his head, and looked like an ordinary person. He exhaled a breath of cold air and walked towards the position of Lao Wuen's tent, as if he was going to have a drink.

According to Agula and Temur's information, this was Na Risu's confidant, nicknamed "Missing Ears". In his early years, he offended a master and had his two ears cut off.

Meng Qi looked at the top of the tent next to him, and happened to meet Temur's line of sight. He nodded slightly, motioning him to follow, and he continued to wait.

In his early years, grassland warriors were all hunters. Temur slid down silently, with "Missing Ears" in the distance.

After a while, Meng Qi's eyes froze, because Na Risu quietly left from behind the tent. If it weren't for the unique braid that failed to completely cover it, Meng Qi would be a little afraid to recognize him.

The true energy flowed, and the snow melted into ice. Meng Qi slid down from the top of the tent like a normal falling snow block, following Na Risu's steps.

Na Risu first went to the place where the small tribes gathered, picked a horse, and then went to the most chaotic tent area, where people who had to sell themselves as slaves or survive by selling flesh and blood lived because of dead livestock.

After receiving the news that was unfavorable to the wolf king, he was so abnormal, I'm afraid it was really related to him... Meng Qi followed from a distance, changing his appearance from time to time, paying attention to everyone who came into contact with Na Risu.

As he walked, Na Risu returned to his own tent!

He deliberately led us in circles. Was the person who sent the message "Que Er"? Or was it his confidant who left the tent during the time I followed him? How can I find him?

Meng Qi was shocked. Just as he was about to go find Temur to meet him, he suddenly had an idea and hid in a hidden place again.

Na Risu had no chance of guessing how many people were watching him. This trick of diverting people in waves could easily fail.

On the contrary, his sudden return to the tent would make people think that the operation had failed and the person who sent the message had left long ago, so they would relax their vigilance here and look for people everywhere!

After half a cup of tea, it seemed that only Na Risu's tent came out again.

He wore a wolfskin hat and a thick coat, like the most ordinary herdsman, but there was an obvious feature on his face that he could not hide, the dull eye on the left.

"One-Eye", another confidant of Na Risu!

Meng Qi was calm and quietly followed "One-Eye" as he turned around.

After thinking that he had gotten rid of the possible trackers, One-Eye suddenly accelerated and went to the outskirts of Gegen Gaole.

The white snow pressed down on the grassland. Even if One-Eye tried his best to walk on it, he would inevitably leave some traces.

Meng Qi followed from a distance, just passing by before the falling snow obliterated the traces.

And every time his toes touched the ground, he stepped on the faint footprints of "One-Eye". Even if "One-Eye" looked back, or there were followers behind him, they would ignore him because there were "no" traces.

You must not be careless when chasing after the Wolf King, who is good at sneak attacks and escapes. Perhaps everyone who passed on information to him would be quietly followed by him for a while?

"You actually left Gegen Gaole. I thought it would be passed on layer by layer, and even used a kite..." Meng Qi frowned slightly, "Could it be that the Wolf King is nearby?"

This made him more alert and did not miss any traces on the road.

Suddenly, Meng Qi sniffed and smelled a very faint smell of blood!

He suddenly quickened his pace, like a gust of wind, whistling forward, and went up the gentle slope.

The sky was still covered with white snow. The lake was wide and thickly frozen, which contrasted with the vast sky. It really made people feel that the sky was vast and the wilderness was boundless, and they were naturally in awe of the sky.

There was a man lying next to the lake. It was "One-Eye". The snow beside him was dyed red and had not yet frozen into ice.

Meng Qi ran to the vicinity cautiously, tiptoed, and turned "One-Eye" over.

There was an expression of disbelief on his face and right eye. His throat was directly crushed and bloody.

Apart from this, there were no other wounds on his body.

"Wolf King!" This familiar feeling made Meng Qi full of vigilance. His right hand had already grasped the hilt of the knife tightly, and every pattern on it was clearly highlighted in his mind.

The Wolf King was actually nearby!

But why did he want to kill "One-Eye"? Did he sense the approach of danger? Meng Qi gripped the hilt tightly, trembling slightly. While full of fighting spirit, he had a deep question.

According to the distance he was following, it was unlikely that the Wolf King would discover him!

Could it be that his spiritual sense of danger was so strong?

At this moment, Meng Qi smelled a very faint fragrance, like musk and orchid, which lasted for a long time.

He drew out the long knife, picked it lightly, and picked out a sachet from "One-Eye"'s arms. It was finely made and exuded a rich fragrance.

"It looks like a special spice? One-Eye's lover gave it to him?" Meng Qi was startled at first, and suddenly found that he was also stained with this fragrance, and it had not subsided for a long time!

If Meng Qi had not reached the realm of "spotless", he would probably not have discovered the strangeness of this fragrance.

He suddenly realized why the wolf king wanted to kill "One-Eye". For the wolf king who was good at hiding his breath, being stained with this fragrance was equivalent to exposing his whereabouts!

In his heart, he probably thought that One-Eye betrayed him and used this fragrance to "harm" him!

Did One-Eye do it intentionally or unintentionally?

The spices were specially made. Regardless of whether One-Eye did it intentionally or unintentionally, the person who gave him the sachet had ulterior motives!

This was a pleasant surprise for Meng Qi. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and distinguished the fragrance from the wind.

The strands of silk passed through his nostrils and were clearly separated. Meng Qi suddenly opened his eyes and jumped to the west, where there was a very faint fragrance left.

He no longer worried about the traces left. He fully unfolded his body skills, followed the fragrance, and ran at full speed!

Although the characteristic of "Pingxu Linfeng" is to turn once in the air, it does not mean that it is not good at long-distance raids, so Meng Qi's figure is floating, like a god, and not slow at all - if this is a shortcoming, how could Xuanbei escape all the way to the Central Plains?

The scent was getting fainter and fainter, and the wolf king seemed to be trying his best to get rid of it, but Meng Qi and his aura were getting more and more distinct, as if after closing his eyes, a fleeing figure would appear in his "sight".

He had to catch up with him before the scent completely disappeared!

The snow was still falling, covering many traces. The wolf king was like a ghost, and did not leave any traces that Meng Qi could find in a hurry. It was as if he was chasing the air. If it were not for the little scent and the aura pulling him, Meng Qi would even suspect that he was chasing in the wrong direction.

A gust of cold wind blew, and the last trace of the scent drifted away. Meng Qi could only rely on that vague intuition to continue tracing.

A series of footprints were left on the snow. The strange thing was that there were only Meng Qi's footprints!

In Meng Qi's mind, the tall and thin figure kept walking, revealing a faint murderous intent. If he had not been worried about another ambush, he would have turned back to hunt him long ago.

Tempering his mind and overcoming his anxiety, the more Meng Qi chased, the more he seemed to be as firm as a rock and calm as a lake, just like the most experienced hunter.

Snowflake narrowed her eyes, but felt that it was getting closer and closer. Meng Qi's hand holding the knife slightly stretched and slowed down, close to the rhythm of the wind, and was about to follow the traction of the qi to draw the knife.

Suddenly, as if night had fallen, the traction of the qi was cut off, and Meng Qi's intuition no longer had the figure of the Wolf King!

"There is still this trick? Why didn't you use it earlier?" Meng Qi was fully alert to prevent the Wolf King from attacking.

He examined the traces and had to slow down the speed of pursuit. If he hadn't carefully identified it, there would be no way to find the clues left by the Wolf King.

After chasing for a while, at such a speed, the traces in front had already completely disappeared.

Meng Qi exhaled and could only admit that he had lost it.

In this regard, the Wolf King does have unique talents and abilities.

"I'm afraid that the trick of breaking the entanglement of the qi will require a certain price, otherwise the Wolf King should use it after removing the fragrance." Meng Qi identified the location and looked for the way back to Gegen Gaole.

The sky was blue, the grassland was vast, and the snow was white. The surroundings were almost the same. Meng Qi almost lost track of where he was. Fortunately, he had a good sense of direction. Combining all kinds of knowledge, he slowly outlined the route he had taken after leaving Gegen Gaole in his mind. First, he went north, then went west and south...

"Hey, as long as I go back east, it's Gegen Gaole!" Meng Qi was shocked. Did he chase the wolf king in a big circle?

"No." He suddenly narrowed his eyes. "It was the wolf king who led me around in a circle. Could it be that he didn't want to leave Gegen Gaole in his deep consciousness?"

If the wolf king didn't think so, going northwest and deep into the grassland would be the best choice. Why go around in circles?

"He wants revenge... He thinks that Ri Su betrayed him that day?" Meng Qi's pupils shrank. He didn't dare to be negligent and went back east with a knife.

When he was about to enter the tent area of ​​Gegen Gaole, Meng Qi saw Temur.

When he saw Meng Qi, he hurriedly greeted him: "Did you find anything?"

"He was nearby, but he lost it." Meng Qi said frankly.

Temur sighed: "The cunning prey can always escape, but the hunter must not lose heart. As long as you have enough patience and calmness, you will definitely catch it."

"Yes." Meng Qi nodded gently.

This is a test of his martial arts will and mind.
