Chapter 12: Strange puddles

Under the dark and hazy night sky, small puddles of water on the field roads are unevenly spread, adding the only bright color to the night!

"I didn't expect to come out and encounter all kinds of evil human traffickers, but fortunately, this human trafficker is not a strong person, otherwise it would be very tricky!"

"Yes, but Mingling, through this incident, I suddenly found that you are quite good..." The old man's tone sounded like he was trying to tease something.

Before the old man finished speaking, Ming Ling hurriedly interrupted: "Teacher, don't tease me, they sell people in order to make money, so I call them to treat others in the way of others, so that they can eat a trench and grow wise, otherwise what if they do bad things in the future?" Ming Ling explained with some embarrassment.

The old man couldn't help laughing, "Yes, it is worthy of being my student, and when you do things, you are sufficient, and everything you say is reasonable." ”

With an embarrassed laugh, Ming Ling touched the back of his head, "Hehe, it's all taught by the teacher!" and then said in a slightly sarcastic tone.

The old man rolled his eyes, but was speechless.

After walking like this for a while, the old man suddenly asked, "Mingling, have you noticed that there are several small puddles along the way?"

"Little puddles? There are a lot of small puddles on this path, is there any problem?Teacher?" Ming Ling asked casually as he looked back at what he had just walked by.

"This small puddle is a bit strange, you must know that it has not rained these days, where does the puddle come from, and the depth and height of the water in this puddle, obviously it has not been left for a long time, but no one has ever passed by here at this meeting, isn't it the problem?" the old man said meaningfully.

Ming Ling was stunned at first, and then asked, "How does the teacher judge that the puddle is not long left?"

"Find out for yourself. The old man said lightly.

Hearing this, Ming Ling squatted next to a puddle, dragging his chin, his eyes looked at the puddle intently, thinking for a moment, his eyes lit up instantly.

"The water in this puddle is not shallow, and the water in the puddle will seep into the soil according to common sense. But the height of the water in this puddle has obviously dropped by less than two centimeters, so the teacher judged it this way?"

The old man was pleased: "Yes, but you have observed three points less, one is that the circle of this puddle is damp, if the damp area is not large, it can be regarded as water seeping in and becomes damp, but the scope of this puddle is not small. ”

"The second is that the puddle is a bit like a footprint, but it's not a human footprint. ”

"The third is that according to common sense, this water is a bit too clear, and according to common sense, the water should be turbid. ”

Listening to the old man's patient explanation, this couldn't help but make him feel even more surprised, and Ming Ling gently pulled out the water with his hand.

Really!

On closer inspection, the puddle is made up of two identical shapes.

After Ming Ling took a closer look, it was indeed somewhat similar to the footprints, but as the old man said, they were not human footprints, but they seemed to be left by animal feet.

As for what beast left behind, Ming Ling didn't know.

"The two legs are connected and pass together, and each puddle is not close to each other, and it is randomly distributed. Ming Ling muttered to himself, his brow furrowed slightly, and his gaze swept to the puddles on the ground.

Could it be a strange beast?

Ming Ling's eyes flashed with surprise.

It is clear that there is no Divine Beast Forest here, so it should be impossible for there to be a strange beast.

Shaking his head slightly, Ming Ling instantly dispelled this idea that he thought was ridiculous.
