When the time arrived in the second half of the night, Ye Qi came to the temporary camp, but a few hours ago, the building was empty.

However, the traces of bonfires and tent nails on the ground are enough to illustrate the problem. Even if they have been covered up in a very subtle way - Ye Qi is quite talented about how to find problems in these details, and when he once showed a mediocre appearance, his teacher, the Sword Saint, once suggested that Ye Qi could be a third-rate detective, investigate an extramarital affair for others, find a lost dog, etc.

As for why it is third-rate?

An excellent detective was obviously not something that Ye Qi could achieve at that time, and now it is not possible - after all, the detective needs to find clues, find clues, and then combine and reason. Although Ye Qi would do this, he attached more importance to direct guessing.

To give a simple example: when facing a murderer, the detective needs to start by looking for clues, but at this moment, Ye Qi started directly from the remaining murderous aura on the other party.

One reaches the end from the starting point, while the other stands from the end point and looks towards the starting point.

The latter is undoubtedly much simpler, but it also lacks something that the real detective lacks - when facing a desperate murderer, the detective will prevent the other party from committing suicide and other actions that hurt themselves, and then say: "I am just a detective, and I have not tried my best to deprive others of their lives" or "watch others lose their lives with their own eyes."

And Ye Qi?

He would just give the other party a knife and end the other party's life with sin.

As for forgiveness?

That is the function of the "God" promoted by the Holy See, not him - if the other party believes in that god, Ye Qi doesn't mind sending the other party to see that "God"!

Therefore, Ye Qi absolutely cannot be a qualified detective. After all, he has always been a witch hunter.

"How is it, is it the goal we are looking for?"

Ye Qi asked to the weird wolf in his heart.

"It's this guy!" The monster wolf nodded with certainty, "But, this guy's 'noses' are really more sensible than dogs! He could actually notice our approach!"

"Can you find the other party's current direction?"

Ye Qi carefully searched around him. After no harvest, he asked the monster wolf.

"Well... this guy is good at concealing, but I haven't recovered to my full strength now..."

The strange wolf's words were a little embarrassed, and the meaning was naturally clear - the strange wolf was expressing his powerlessness at this moment.

"If possible, please explain directly in the future!"

Ye Qi replied angrily, then lowered his head and looked for possible clues again - although there was no gain in the previous search, Ye Qi now has no better way except for this search; should he still be nagging like his contract companion?

"Can you explain this directly? Will you tell others directly, can't I do? How can you say such words? You know. I'm..."

The weird wolf's words are full of chatter.

"That was you, not you now; and, if you are very idle now, please help me find clues that may exist!"

Ye Qi interrupted the monster wolf's nagging without hesitation, and then stared at the traces underground with his keen eyes - Ye Qi hoped that the other party would leave footprints or other traces. However, it was obvious that the existence similar to the monster wolf was careful enough, even if the other party now had a human body.

Not to mention footprints, there is not even an existence that can be called traces.

"The clue that may exist? It can't be found for the time being!" The monster wolf whispered, "That guy is different from our current situation - he can detect our arrival so quickly. It should be able to use part of its own power. Even if it is a little bit, it is enough to avoid most seekers. This is that guy's talent!"

"So.what are your suggestions?"

Ye Qi stood up straight, waiting for the answer that his contracted companion would give.

"Follow a large number of people to find it - this is the only feasible method now, and the speed must be fast. Otherwise, that guy will definitely escape!" said the monster wolf very formally, "It is a conservative guy, so he naturally won't be too brave... A hiding place was discovered, so he naturally had to fly away!"

With a large number of people...

Ye Qi was silent and narrowed his eyes - searching with a large number of people, although it seems to be the best way to do it now, Ye Qi had expressed his concerns before. Even at this time, such concerns would still exist; in the face of the existence of enemies or hostility, Ye Qi would not hesitate at all, but in the same camp, people with kindness?

Ye Qi asked himself if he wanted to be the kind of person who cared about the other person's life.

That kind of burden is too heavy, and it may even make a person unable to move forward.

There should be any trace left, even if it is left by flying...

Throwing the monster wolf's proposal aside, Ye Qi started another hard search - he looked up and searched among the dense and dry branches.

Even a broken branch was enough to give him some clues.

The strange wolf looked at the appearance of his contractor and shrugged and climbed down the seal hall of the seal place. Although this behavior is understandable now, this understanding does not represent its recognition; it still believes that this search should still be completed in a more direct and fast manner.

Herodian!

With a horse's neighing, Groning, who had been staying outside the temporary camp, suddenly neighed. When falling from the air, in order to worry about destroying possible clues here, Ye Qi deliberately let Groning stay 'outside the circle'.

"Groning, quiet! I need someone who is not disturbed..."

Ye Qi waved his hand and signaled his mount to stop; however, before he finished speaking, Groning rushed in. He bit Ye Qi's sleeve and pulled it outward.

"What did you...discover?"

Ye Qi looked at his mount in surprise. Ye Qi never underestimated Groning, a war horse that awakened a trace of nightmare blood. He had extremely excellent bloodline, and the bloodline of nightmare was enough to give Groning a strong strength and extraordinary wisdom.

And it is precisely because of this that Ye Qi never thought that Groning would make trouble unreasonable - even if he was playing like a child, when facing the current situation, Groning would never have such abnormal behavior; and once such abnormal behavior occurs, it can only explain-

Herodian!

Groning, who neighed again, nodded repeatedly with his horse's head, then pulled Ye Qi's sleeve and pulled in one direction.

This time, Ye Qi jumped straight onto the horse without any hesitation. Groning immediately soared into the air and flew in one direction, and quickly.

"Hey, boy, you're not helpless enough to believe in a horse that can't even communicate with you, right?"

After seeing Ye Qi's behavior, the strange wolf couldn't help but speak.

Ye Qi has [Nature Consciousness] and [Nature Support], so he should be able to communicate with any animal and plant. However, some accidents occurred here in Groning - Groning, who had not awakened the nightmare blood before, could communicate with Ye Qi smoothly, but Groning, who had awakened the nightmare blood, lost such ability.

It cannot be said to be lost, but becomes stagnant - it is like you say that it can understand, but it cannot be expressed in general.

Therefore, Groning showed a high understanding of Ye Qi's words, but he was unable to communicate.

Ye Qi would not care about this at all - whether he could communicate or not, Groning was his mount and partner. This would not change at all.

For Ye Qi, who had lived in the Ranger Camp for more than half a year, it was not difficult to regard the war horse as a partner, but rather a very easy instinct.

So, facing the questioning of the monster wolf, Ye Qi sarcastically said: "I am helpless enough to believe in a war horse that I can't even communicate with me. I don't want to agree with such words; after all, you who can communicate smoothly with me cannot give me any help - in this way, aren't you even worse than my horse?"

"I have given you the help you deserve!"

The strange wolf emphasized angrily.

"But I don't agree with that kind of help-so, is it a help?"

Ye Qi asked back.

"That's better than believing in a horse... Although its bloodline is a little special, it's still a horse, and that won't change!"

The monster wolf insists on his own opinion.

"The horse has a very good sense of smell, even better than some hunting dogs!" Ye Qi said seriously, and once again expressed his wish. "And Groning's special bloodline may have caused such smell, something that I can't understand mutation... I think I should believe in Groning!"

"Are you idiots? You actually chose to believe in a horse and want to find someone like us by your sense of smell?" The monster wolf couldn't help but feel a hint of anger and said angrily, "Your approach is simply foolish - like these unremembered goldfish!"

"I would like to believe, or... you who have different opinions, want to have another bet with me that is beneficial to physical and mental health?" Ye Qi, who was sitting on Groning's back, asked with a smile, "By the way, I'll remind you that goldfish also have memories, although it's only seven seconds!"

"Hmph, I won't be involved in gambling, such a trick!"

The monster wolf snorted coldly.

"Since it's a trick, what's the point of playing it once?"

Ye Qi started his "invitation" again as if he was sure to win.

"You seem to think you're sure to win! Or... you're bluffing!" The monster wolf looked at his contractor, "I want to 'make up' the losses you're going to suffer through such a bet?"

"'Make up for my losses?" Ye Qi asked back with a funny look, "How should I make up for it - after all, I am on the side I am looking for, and you are determined not to find it; such a bet is bluffing without any effect; we are not playing studs at the gambling table!"

Everything makes sense as Ye Qi said!

They are not playing cards at the gambling table, but they have a bluff - as long as they grasp the final "result", they will win and not lose.

However, a little uneasy in my heart was persuading the monster wolf not to do this.

"Take. Humph, it's just a trick!"

The monster wolf snorted again with disdain.

"So, will you attend?"

Ye Qi asked with a smile, but a hint of impatientness was added to his tone - it seemed that he was about to end the conversation soon, but this impatientness made the monster wolf stunned.

"Do you want to end soon?" The monster wolf suddenly said. "Well... it seems that you are not sure about this bet! I was really bluffing before!"

"Tell me, what do you want to bet on?"

The monster wolf became relaxed in an instant.

"The sun needs to be continuous, so what about the moon?"

Ye Qi asked.

"You guy wants to know that? You are so ambitious. You have to know that your situation is not yet solved!"

The strange wolf stared at his contractor in surprise - this feeling of being sure to win in words made it feel a little uncomfortable. The previous uneasiness appeared again; however, when the words were spoken out, it was obviously impossible to change; therefore, the strange wolf could only fight back with words.

"Are you still confused me with words? Want to let me give up the victory I have won again? Tell you, this is impossible!" said the strange wolf. "If you win, I will tell you about the 'moon', but if you lose - borrow your body to me for three days!"

Immediately, Ye Qi shook his head!

Suddenly, the monster wolf laughed loudly: "Hahaha, you dare not? However, our bet has begun. We cannot withdraw now!"
