The night passed, a very unquiet night, but after all, everyone ushered in another morning. Net.

It was agreed that there would be people keeping vigil in turn, at least two at a time. It's just that many people who don't keep vigil can't sleep, and they are still secretly thinking about life, and their hearts are heavy, until they are really tired at the end, and they fall asleep in a daze. As a result, this morning, many people were not in good spirits.

As for the fireworks that bloomed in another place last night, they could only guess what was born. On a dangerous jungle night, it is naturally impossible to rush through an uncertain location overnight. The matter of rescue, since the designated signal has appeared, the empire has someone in charge, so they don't need to worry about it.

Breakfast is some mushrooms deliberately left over from last night, just roast and swallow them in a hurry. In itself, Xiao Ao seemed to want to be able to cut a few pieces of meat from the unlucky iron-spine tiger and roast them, but was strongly opposed by the Dusk Yinyin and the women, so they had to give up.

"Do you think we're going to go straight ahead now, or should we go back and get water first?"

Looking at the map that had been modified with a tree branch stained in beast blood, Ning Yue raised his hand and rubbed his chin, thinking slightly.

Luo Liao replied: "It's been six hours, and I think that group of people should have guessed that we camped not far from the creek last night, and they probably returned there to ambush again." Last night, after tossing in the middle of the night, everyone's state is not much better than yesterday, even if the people of the two teams are together, when they meet the powerhouse of the empire who is waiting for work, the odds are not great. ”

"If we continue north, the next convenient spot for water will probably have to go a little westerly, and it will be almost at night. Along the way, no one knows what will happen. Moreover, the soldiers were treacherous, and they thought that those people would not dare to go back even if we did not dare to go back, so they did not send anyone to guard at all, and all of them were ambushed in front, and they were even more relaxed. I want to go back and get water first, even if I lose the bet, there are still eight chances left. If the water is not enough, holding nine chances to drag the tired body will not have much advantage. ”

After that, Ning Yue snatched the water bladder from Chang Xuanxuan's hand, and it was completely deflated, and there was not a drop of water left.

"If you go alone, we won't follow."

A young man from the Chongwei team said coldly, but Ning Yue didn't look at him at all, and his eyes fell on his companions in his team.

"What do you think?"

"It's good for two people to go, and the rest of them are secretly watching. If there's a situation, don't show up. So, how? Twilight gave her advice, and the rest of the group nodded.

Ning Yue responded: "Okay, since I proposed it, I'll go." ”

"Plus me." Xiao Ao grinned, pulled through the spouts of two water bladders, and poured all the remaining water from one into the other, which was also less than half of it. Then, he shook the empty water bladder in his hand and came to Ning Yue's side.

"Be careful."

Seeing that the two of them had made up their minds, Fang Huanlan couldn't dissuade them, so she had to nod.

"Wait, I'll go with you. Three people can take care of more than two. ”

It was Luo Liao who spoke, and he also snatched an empty water bladder, and then glared at it, so that the young man who had objections directly swallowed the words of persuasion that came to his mouth back into his stomach.

A moment later, on the bank of the bubbling stream, a cluster of trees slowly trembled, and a figure sprang out, and after a few quick glances, to make sure that there was no one, he hurriedly beckoned behind him. Immediately afterwards, the other two rushed out, hurried to the creek with water bladders, and began to fill the water.

Ning Yue, who came out first, looked around with his sword, responsible for guarding. This location is far from the place where they crossed the river on the rocks yesterday, and if there is an ambush on the other side, they will not be able to come so quickly.

After filling a water bladder, Xiao Ao hurriedly covered it, leaned over and picked up the stream water with both hands and splashed it on his face, the coolness stimulated his face, stroked the heat, and the original tiredness was also swept away.

"Cool."

With a long sigh, he picked up some more stream water and drank it directly. Once isn't enough, take a few more sips.

However, at the next moment, Xiao Ao's movement of holding the water suddenly stopped, his face was a little strange, he leaned over to the stream and sniffed, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. Ignoring Luo Liao's inquiry beside him, he grabbed the water bladder and pulled out the plug, and sniffed it again.

"There seems to be something strange in the water......

"Wouldn't it? Is it because I woke up in the morning that I felt bad in my mouth? ”

Luo Liao shook his head, but he also subconsciously picked up the stream and took a sip. Soon, his face changed.

"Like, compared to the water I poured yesterday, it doesn't taste right."

"Really?"

Ning Yue was taken aback, but he didn't taste it, but looked along the upstream of the stream, which was the source of the stream. If there's a problem, it should be over there too.

It seems that the creek is still clear, and there is no difference in the turbulent flow of the waves.

Just looking farther away, there seemed to be an extra black shadow on the protruding rocks that came yesterday, lying motionless on the rocks.

"Yesterday, it didn't seem like there was anything there, right?"

Raising his hand, Ning Yue's eyes began to narrow.

"What's that?" Xiao Ao looked at it and was stunned for a moment.

"Go see?"

Ning Yue wanted to refuse Luo Liao's proposal, but if something went wrong with the stream water poured into the water bladder, it would also be troublesome. Helpless, the three of them had to rush upstream together.

When they reached the rock, the true face of the shadow was finally seen. Suddenly, Xiao Ao and Luo Liao, who had drunk the water just now, retched for a while, hurriedly pulled out the water bladder plug, and poured all the water that had been filled.

It was the corpse of a demonic beast, the flesh had been almost gnawed clean, only half of the fur remained, and beyond that, the bare skeleton had begun to rot in part and was crawling with fat maggots. It was such a corpse, most of which was soaked in the stream, and when you looked closely, you could vaguely see the water flowing through its side, as if the color had changed slightly. It's just that after rushing into the distance with the turbulent water, it thins and fades.

In this way, the smell of the water downstream can also be explained.

"Throw the damn monster around when you're done eating, and put it here to stain the stream." While retching, Xiao Ao turned his head and cursed, secretly swearing in his heart that if he collided, he would definitely dismantle the predator.

"Wait, something doesn't seem right."

Suddenly, Ning Yue's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward, handing out the scabbard and picking up the tattered fur on the corpse.

"Hey, Ning Yue, what are you doing, stop!" Luo Liao hurriedly drank it, and he instantly felt that the stench in the air was much stronger.

Pinching his nose and shaking his head, Ning Yue withdrew his sword scabbard and sank into the stream, letting the water wash away the filth. Then, he said in a deep voice: "I read it right, it's a sword wound." Judging by the depth and angle of the wounds, it seems to be ...... It was a knife mastiff I killed yesterday. ”

Xiao Ao replied: "You killed it?" In other words, the corpse of the knife mastiff thrown here was picked up and eaten by a certain monster at night? ”

That's the only explanation. But if that's the case, it's a little strange. Ning Yue retreated to the shore, took a water bladder, and immersed it in the upper reaches of the rock. Water taken from here will naturally not be polluted.

Hearing this, Luo Liao asked suspiciously, "What's strange?" ”

Ning Yue pointed to the corpse over there and said, "It's winter now, the weather is so cold, and the dead corpse doesn't necessarily decompose much in a month." But the corpse of this knife mastiff, which had died yesterday, turned out to be like this today, as if it had been dug out of a graveyard. Isn't it, not quite logical? ”

"What do you care about?" Xiao Ao asked.

"It's nothing, maybe I'm overthinking. Hurry, re-rehydrate, and go. ”

Ning Yue wanted to speak and stopped, and on the side, Luo Liao seemed to think of something, but he didn't say it either.

Soon, the three of them returned to the bushes, but now, only half of their companions, who were supposed to be waiting for them here, were left.

Seeing their surprise, Ji Qianyou explained: "Not long after you went out, there was movement in the depths of the jungle over there, Zheng Qiong couldn't rest assured, so she brought a few people over to take a look, leaving us here to wait for you." Since I have to watch out for an ambush that you may encounter on your side, I don't dare to shout from afar, so I will discuss with you first. ”

"This Zheng Qiong is too reckless!"

Luo Liao stomped his foot fiercely, only two of the people waiting for them to come back here were members of the Chongwei team. In other words, there were three people who left, including Zheng Qiong. On the Valkyrie team's side, it was Lin Mo and Chang Xuanxuan who left.

"Keep up, this time is scattered, then the purpose of our previous cooperation can be equivalent to nothing."

The crowd was very fast, and there was a strong wind in the forest, and the leaves fell on the path.

Soon, they saw several towering and stopped figures, judging by their costumes, they were the students of the Imperial Academy. And, of course, their companions.

"Zheng Qiong, didn't I tell you many times? ...... not allowed"

Suddenly, Luo Liao's scolding stopped, and following Zheng Qiong's slightly frightened gaze, he looked at a tree in front of him.

Tick. Tick.

Blood was dripping, staining the earth red. There was a figure hanging upside down from the branch above, a bright red figure, not his body stained red with blood. But......

His skin was stripped away.

"Oh my God."

Subconsciously took a step back, Luo Liao suddenly noticed that his shoulder was touched, and his heart trembled, but the sound that sounded immediately calmed him down quickly.

The familiar voice was Ning Yue. It's just that the content of the words made him dumbfounded.

"The bushes in front of you are a little weird. And do you think the smell of blood is too strong? ”

"What do you mean?" Luo Liao looked back.

Xiao Ao replied: "What he means is that maybe there is more than one person killed here. ”

With that, he drew his long sword and walked forward slowly in front of him. When he came to the bushes, he didn't stretch out his hand to pull them away, but directly swung his sword and slashed off most of the branches and leaves.

Laugh at!

Behind the splattered branches and leaves, a blur of flesh and blood, and in the blink of an eye, the impact almost made people vomit all of yesterday's breakfast.

"Wow!"

In the rear, several girls could no longer hold on, turned their heads and retched.

Xiao Ao also frowned again and again, but maybe it was because he saw the corpse of the knife mastiff just now, and now his endurance is a little better, looking down at the broken flesh and internal organs on the ground, with a hint of horror in his eyes.

"Could it be that which team was wiped out?"

"I'm afraid not."

Suddenly, Ning Yue took a step forward and reached out to pull something out of a mass of minced meat.

It was a dagger, the edge rolled up, the blade stained with blood.

"If I'm not mistaken, the group of people who ambushed us yesterday also used daggers of this standard. In other words, the strong man who the Empire arranged to ambush us was reduced to another terrible force last night...... Prey. ”
