Chapter 703 Tracking.
Bo Qingtan returned to Ding Shu's house and asked, "Old man, hand us something your daughter-in-law used frequently."
Ding Shu was surprised but knew that since the immortal master had asked for it. The matter was important. He rushed inside the room where her daughter-in-law stayed and picked up a dress and a hair comb from the dresser.
He asked, "Exalted Immortal, will this work?"
Bo Qingtan gazed at the hair comb, found a few strands entangled with it, and nodded. He took the hair comb carefully and left without another word. He was not interested in conversing or consoling this old man. Bo Qingtan regrouped with Shi Lang and found that Yun Xue had finished carving a circle on the ground and made a few seals with her hands.
Shi Lang said, "When she waves at you, toss the comb inside the circle. Make sure to time your action perfectly. This will increase the accuracy of the tracking."
Bo Qingtan nodded, and soon, Yun Xue waved her hand, and the former tossed the coin inside the circle. The comb did not fall still on the ground. It began to shake. Shi Lang watched the process carefully, and soon, the array circle that Yun Xue had carved on the ground began to emit golden light.
The golden light gradually moved to the comb, and the object shot through the void. Yun Xue chased after it, and Shi Lang and Bo Qingtan followed her trail. The boys did not know that this tracking mission included a chase. However, it did not matter much to them.
Shi Lang and Bo Qingtan had no trouble keeping up with Yun Xue's speed. The terran was enjoying it. The haircomb was not flying at a higher altitude but moving through the treeline. The reason was obvious: Cao Yanjing must have used the ground to navigate the forest with so many hostages.
The people he kidnapped were mortals. This was the only option left for him. After a few minutes, they reached where Yun Xue caught the comb, and Shi Lang said, "They were here."
Bo Qingtan nodded and crouched down on the ground to examine the side. After a few minutes, he said, "I sense the tracks of eight people."
They followed the trail on the ground for half an hour and Shi Lang suddenly said, "We are being misled."
Bo Qingtan asked, "What do you mean?"
Shi Lang replied, "The tracks changed. They did not have shoes before, but now they do."
Yun Xue nodded and asked in confusion, "Could it be that Cao Yanjing gave them shoes?"
Bo Qingtan rolled his eyes and said, "Yes, in our dreams, sure."
Shi Lang shook his head, "You are not wrong, but did you notice that we have been following just a single set of footmarks for the past few minutes?"
The two people were surprised, and they quickly put all things together. Bo Qingtan said, "Huh, could it be that he made one person break away from the pack to lead us astray?"
Shi Lang nodded and replied, "Yes, correct."
Yun Xue asked, "What do we do now?"
Shi Lang said, "Brother Bo, go find trails for the pack, and I will search for the person who led us away from the pack. I fear this person has already become food for a spirit beast."
Yun Xue froze, and then her eyes turned red. Shi Lang took a deep breath and said, "Yun Xue, you will be responsible for helping Brother Bo to look for the pack in a different direction. If you find them, you will tell me before you act. I do not care what rage you experience but do not act alone. Do you understand?"
The two people nodded and left quickly, but Shi Lang could tell that his words were useless. He shook his head and decided to look for the decoy. As for the other two, he would see what was to come when it came.
