Chapter 45: Weird Very
"Circle?"
The crowd looked at the place where Aegean was looking, and saw that the unfinished cigar that had bounced off the fish was emitting faint white smoke on the ground, and there was another cigar that had long been extinguished in the place where the cigar was......
Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the fish, and the latter took out a cigarette with a confused look in his eyes and smiled: "Do you want one?" Wan Zhi didn't pay attention to him, then touched his chin and thought for a while: "Where did the cigarette butts come from, only the fish fruit was smoking after we crossed the river......
He took over and said, "But why do you have two cigarette butts, and one cigar can be smoked for at least half an hour, and we have only stayed here for more than ten minutes......
Xiong Di also nodded, and analyzed with a detective look: "This shows that in fact, it is very likely that someone crossed the river before us, and then happened to throw a cigarette butt here......" Xiong Di's eyes lit up, as if he had seen through the whole thing, and then said with a smile, when he finished speaking, he found that everyone was looking at him with black lines on their faces, and then shook his head shyly and said modestly: "Hey, don't look at me like this, I don't boast about it......"
Everyone ignored him directly, and An Xiangtao laughed softly: "According to the cigarette butt that Yu Guo just lost, the length of the cigarette will take at least twenty minutes......"
Everyone turned their heads to look at the smiling fish, and Aiqin said calmly: "So we have been going around in circles, we have been standing still, and we have never walked out of this place!" ”
"We're lost......"
Yu Guo calmly took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it in front of everyone, took a deep breath and said lightly: "I know the way, but it's a pity that I am a road idiot......"
"Road idiot?"
Wan Zhi touched his somewhat hot head and asked, "Road idiot?" We're not road idiots......" Guo Ke, who was in Yu Guo's arms at this time, couldn't help but raise his head slightly and asked, "Yes, I ...... too"
Yu Guo stretched out his hand to block Guo Ke's small mouth, and then said evilly: "Do you want one?" ......" Everyone covered their heads, only to feel that their brains were messy, and they grabbed their hair and said, "When did you know the Tao?" ”
"Just ......"
Burst...... Everyone fell, and they only felt that they had been tricked. Yu Guo calmly smoked a cigarette.
"But you all seem to have forgotten something else......"
Everyone who wanted to smash the fish fruit couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is it?" Yu Guo smiled and pointed to the tree, and everyone looked at it, but what they saw was nothing special about what Yu Guo was pointing to, except for the calm and silent tree, there was nothing to see.
He tilted his head and looked at it for a long time, then frowned and said, "There is nothing?" Xiong Di shook his head in confusion to indicate that he didn't see anything, but the silent Aegean said calmly: "Point to the sign!" ”
"Point to the sign?"
Then they remembered that from the time they set out to the River of Death, there would be signs on the trees all the way, but there were no signs here, could it be that we were going the wrong way?
The silent Wan Zhi suddenly asked, "Who remembers if there was a pointing sign when we first crossed the river?" Everyone covered their heads and thought about it, and was silent for a moment, always shaking their heads to indicate that they couldn't remember.
"I remember ......"
Yu Guo said suddenly. Wan Zhi: "Are you sure you saw it?" Do you remember when you started to point out of the card? Yu Guo smoked quietly, staring ahead with confused eyes, but he didn't say anything for a while. Wan Zhi waited for a long time, and asked again impatiently.
"From the time we crossed the river, we could still see the pointing signs, but when we entered the forest, after walking about 1,0038 steps, I realized that I don't know when I didn't pay attention to the pointing signs." Yu Guo said calmly.
Wan Zhi listened to Yu Guo's words and was silent, why didn't I notice such details? Was it because I was so excited about crossing the River of Death that I didn't pay attention? No way...... That's not my attitude...... But what will I forget......
Aiqin and the others all frowned a little confusedly, but Guo Ke, who was hiding in Yu Guo's arms, said in a daze: "I'm curious...... How do you remember how many steps you walked? Yu Guo's hand covered Guo Ke's small mouth again, and the latter's angry face puffed up, why didn't he always talk to me?
"Something is wrong, I always feel that something is wrong!"
Wan Zhi stood up, walking around the fire with frowning brows, Aiqin and the others were also trying to recall, only Yu Guo sat there quietly smoking, it seemed that it was none of his business, just smoking quietly, in a daze.
"Do you have a weird feeling...... "Shi asked suddenly, Wan Zhi glanced at him, and said softly, "Yes, it's a weird feeling...... But I can't say what it feels like......"
At this time, Xiong Di suddenly raised his head and said, "Dream!" ”
"Dreaming ......" "Yes! It's just dreaming! Wan Zhi seemed to have woken up from a dream, and then smirked: "How can I say that it feels very weird, it turns out to be the feeling of a dream...... Wan Zhi touched his head and laughed a little stupidly.
"So what now?"
"We can't go any further, we go back, something is wrong here."
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and they also felt that if they didn't follow the signs, they would probably walk to a place where no one knew the way, and when the time came, let alone the end, they might starve to death on this island of despair.
"Without further ado, we'll go now."
With that, the seven men each took their torches and walked back to the road.
I don't know how long it was, it was about three o'clock in the night, a bright yellow fire was moving slowly, the forest was very quiet, and only the sound of insects and the footsteps of seven people could be heard, and everyone's face looked very tired, and they dragged their steps listlessly. Except for the fish fruit who has been smoking a cigarette with a blank face.
"Okay, we've been gone for a long time, let's all take a break......"
Everyone nodded, and Xiong Di and Blaze picked up a branch from nearby and lit it. The pale yellow flames were wafting, and Wan Zhi looked for it on the gold bag, and said with some confusion: "Our bread and water are gone?" ”
He smiled and said, "Didn't you just eat it?" Wan Zhi shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Really? It's not strange that the stomach is not hungry......" Everyone just sat and rested like that, and the atmosphere fell silent all of a sudden, which seemed a little weird.
Suddenly, for some reason, Aiqin's eyes kept staring at the ground, and then frowned: "I see...... It turns out that we have been going around in circles......"-
Wan Zhi suddenly asked Yu Guo, "Do you remember if there was a pointing sign when we first crossed the river?" Yu Guo looked at him quietly, then showed a cheap smile, and said: "I'm a road idiot...... Wan Zhi's face looked very tired, and then waved his hand impatiently and said: "You are a road idiot, but I'm not!" ”
Yu Guo looked at him quietly, then took out his cigar and said, "Do you want one?" Wan Zhi touched his head that was a little painful and shook his head and said, "I'm a little tired...... and the others around Xiong Di Aiqin were a little drowsy.
"Do you know the truth?" Wan Zhi suddenly looked up and asked.
Yu Guo looked calmly ahead with his eyes, and only after half a sound did he speak: "After we crossed the river, we could still see the pointing signs, but when we entered the forest, after walking about one thousand and thirty-eight steps, I found that I don't know when I didn't pay attention to the pointing signs. ”
Guo Ke, who was hiding in Yu Guo's arms, suddenly looked up at Yu Guo slightly and said, "I'm just curious how you can remember how many steps you have walked?" Yu Guo smoked quietly, and then reached out to cover Guo Ke's small mouth, the latter just closed his eyes slightly, and no longer resisted, Guo Ke's face looked very tired, and then rubbed it in his arms steadily.
Wan Zhi was silent for a while, and said with a somewhat confused face: "Why do you always feel that something is wrong?" Aegean Xiongdi and others next to him also looked at him and nodded.
"Without further ado...... Let's go back......"
Yu Guo smiled, then popped out the cigar that was about to finish in his mouth, waved his fingers, and then lit another cigar, and then picked up Guo Ke, who was already asleep, and slowly walked behind everyone.
A faint spark crossed the air, and then rolled on the ground a few times before stopping, white smoke floated faintly, and there were already more than a dozen cigarette butts that had already been extinguished next to it......
