It was late autumn.

The air became moist due to the rain.

Early morning.

A thick fog rose from the flat plains, encompassing passers-by who were struggling to make their way through the muddy road.

This was the second day of Han Qingluo's departure, and the planned destination was even farther than expected.

Following the path trampled by the predecessors, the group slowly moved forward in the thick fog, and it was expected that they would arrive at the target location in the evening.

A cold, wet mist enveloped them, wetting their hair and clothes.

The horses underneath them, shaking the strong muscles of their legs, hanging their heads and walking on their hooves, each heavy gasp condensed a stream of heat that mixed into the mist.

Apparently they are also tired.

There was no sound except for the sound of horses' hooves, and everyone was preoccupied with the road, keeping a distance between them.

The coldness rushed into Han Qingluo's body along her skin, making her can't help but sneeze, which abruptly broke the silence around her and attracted everyone's attention.

"Let's rest in place for a while!"

Jue's voice sounded ahead.

Hearing this, they pulled the reins, stopped the horses beneath them, and tied them to a tree by the side of the road.

Jin took out a sweater from his backpack and draped it over Han Qingluo's body.

She turned her head to look at the fire, and the surprise quickly pressed into her eyes, and her tone was flat: "Thank you!" After saying that, he turned his head and concentrated on swinging the velvet grass and firewood.

Kim just crouched to the side and watched, looking at her familiar and unfamiliar face.

Wisps of cloudy gray smoke kept floating between the firewood, and because it was too humid, it was difficult for the fire to burn, and a trace of impatience quickly appeared on Han Qingluo's face.

The fire fold is also a little damp because of the moisture, and it is not smooth to use.

"Let me do it!"

Jin took Han Qingluo's hand that turned black by fiddling with firewood, and his blue eyes were as gentle as water.

Han Qingluo looked at his face, and he was a little distracted, as if he had returned to the gentle boy when he first met. The first person of the opposite sex to give her warmth in this cruel world.

The first rays of sunlight that appear in the darkness are always so special that they are hard to forget.

There was only a moment of stunnedness, Han Qingluo quickly let go of the firewood, withdrew his hand, and shifted his gaze to the firewood: "It's useless, it's too damp!" ”

"Look at me!"

Jin put his hand on the firewood, his blue eyes changed, and they were replaced by scarlet, and the special blood power of the Tsmisi blood clan made him urge to convert into heat, and ignited the firewood.

Although Jin You had shown her his abilities in the Night Castle before, seeing it again after such a long time, Han Qingluo still felt a little incredible.

The world is both real and imaginary.

The human world has its natural development, and every piece of history is real, but there are so many strange heresies and creatures in this world.

The flames rose out, dissipating the chill on Han Qingluo's body with warmth. She flipped her hands, absorbing more warmth, and her eyes shone with fire.

"It's really overkill to let you use the power of the blood clan to make a fire!"

The light of the fire reflected on her face, which looked soft, and the curvature of the corners of her lips was caught by Jin for a moment, and he added a piece of wood to the fire: "For you, I am willing to do anything." ”

Han Qingluo raised his eyelids, glanced at Jin, and lowered his eyes again: "Thank you for your love, but we don't seem to be able to go back to the past." ”

Jin was obviously mentally prepared, and there was not much expression on his face: "It's okay, I'll wait for you all the time." ”

"Actually......"

Han Qingluo opened his mouth and paused for a moment.

Jin Yingsheng looked at her, with both expectation and fear in his eyes, he expected to hear what she was saying, but he was afraid that it would be something he didn't want to hear.

He didn't urge her out loud, just looked at her quietly, expecting what she was going to say after "actually".

Just as a thousand words were about to come out of their mouths, a cold air rushed at them—a pair of muddy leather boots and mud-stained trouser legs appeared at their sides.

Looking up, it was Jue in a black robe who leaned over, and the broken hair on his forehead was still hanging with dewdrops, which was like a walking humidifier.

"You don't mind if I come over for a fire, do you?"

Jue said this, but his feet walked honestly between Han Qingluo and Jin, half-squatted down, and deliberately brushed his hair that was so wet that he could squeeze out water.

The tiny droplets of water that bounced up just rushed to Jin's side, Jin stood up and went to the other side, leaning towards Han Qingluo, and formed a new center point, with Han Qingluo as the center point, and two blood clan men on both sides.

"I didn't interrupt the two of you chatting, did I?"

Jue took off his robe, pretended to follow Han Qingluo's appearance, and spread out his hands to roast the fire.

"It turns out that Lord Jue is still afraid of the cold?"

Kim sneered.

"If it's wet, you have to bake it, so that it won't rot inside, I don't know yet."

Jue's face was expressionless, and his eyes were staring directly at the fire.

Han Qingluo glanced at the two of them left and right, and stood up: "It's too crowded, I'll change positions." As he spoke, he shifted to the opposite side of them.

Jue and Jin's sight was not blocked by Han Qingluo, and they collided together in an instant, and after a short "battle", they moved away.

After a while, Lenson and Hunter also came around.

Although the blood clan is not afraid of the cold, the feeling of the soaked clothes sticking to the body is not very comfortable, and the temperature of the fire is used to remove the dampness on the body.

"When the fog clears, we'll set off at once."

Jue raised his eyes and looked around, the sun had not yet come out, and the fog was still thick.

"Then I'll take advantage of this time to sleep!"

Under the double warmth of the sweater wrap and the fire, Han Qingluo was a little sleepy, yawned, and directly buried his head and covered his head with a sweater to make up for sleep.

……

The sky was dark, and the clouds were hanging low.

The surroundings were gloomy and dreary, and the cold brought by the humidity hit the whole body, making the body tremble.

In the forest, on a narrow dirt path.

The horses were still slowly moving forward with their hooves.

The road ahead is as evil and bone-chilling as the abyss.

I was a little scared in my heart, and I wanted to open my mouth and shout out, so that everyone could turn their heads and not go any further.

only to find that everything in the world seemed to be masking his voice, and his body was still moving forward, unable to move.

Ahead.

A canyon suddenly appeared.

I felt that my chest was as if it was pressed by a thousand pounds of stones, dull and uncomfortable, and it was occupied by a violent feeling of suffocation.

Getting closer and closer to the canyon......

I couldn't help but close my eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, I realized that I was already in the canyon.

A cloudy wind gusted through.

In the depths of the canyon, there was a strange sound of a low roar that followed the wind to my ears.

Suddenly, a terrifying scream sounded behind him.

The next second.

A dirty and evil face appeared in front of him, and a pair of cloudy eyes stared straight at him, it was a "ghost"!

"Ahh

A loud scream.

Startled the surrounding birds perched on tree trunks.

"Are you having nightmares?"

The horse beneath him stopped, and a gentle inquiry came from overhead.

Lilian's confused eyes widened, only to feel a little damp and cold on the tip of her nose, and she raised her hand to wipe it away.

"Why did you get a nosebleed? Is something happening? ”

Lilian's abnormality made Garlo wary.

"Did we walk into a canyon?"

Garlo raised his eyes and looked ahead, and there happened to be a canyon entrance in front of him: "A hundred meters away, there is a canyon." ”

Lilian knew that this terrible scene was not a dream, but a foresight of danger, and immediately asked Garlo and them to retreat from here: "There seem to be 'ghosts' ahead, and they seem to be ambushing us. ”

"Everyone obey the order, retreat!"

Galo looked serious and turned his head and shouted.

As soon as he heard the word "ghost", Yuke on the side suddenly became excited: "Is this going to meet the enemy?" Let Lao Tzu see it! ”

He drew the knife from his scabbard, rode his horse, and headed straight for the canyon.

"Yuke, don't go!"

It was difficult for Garo to move forward with Lilian, so he had to let Yuph stop him.

Yufu rode his horse and caught up with Yuke: "Yuke, that witch has already predicted danger, why don't you listen to the persuasion and go forward?" ”

"Brother, that witch is young, it's normal to be afraid, I'm not afraid, besides, we have all done a good job of protection in advance, why don't you let me meet this group of monsters and see what they are capable of!"

Yuke disagreed, and turned his horse's head to get around his brother Yuf.

"No, it's too dangerous!"

Yufer didn't back down, and glanced at the canyon, which indeed exuded an evil aura, even if it was not predicted by the witch, it could be the best place for the enemy to ambush.

"Okay, okay!"

Yuke shook his head, pretending to compromise, but took advantage of Yufer to let his guard down, kicked the horse's belly hard, and galloped towards the canyon.

"Yuke!"

Yuph was startled, shouted after him, and chased after him.

"Lord Count, shall we follow?"

Elk watched worriedly as they broke into the canyon.

"You go up and support, the situation is not right, come out immediately!"

For Lilian's safety, Garrow didn't want to risk it and chose to wait outside the canyon.

"Lillian, what exactly did you see?"

After Elk followed the canyon as well, Galo frowned and whispered to the frightened Lilian in front of her.

"I saw 'ghosts', and many, many dead people, dead people who could move......" Lillian shuddered uncontrollably, "Let's get out of here!" ”

Garlo looked thoughtfully at the canyon, was this ambush too much of a coincidence?

Could it be that their whereabouts have been revealed?

Don't?

Has their investigation already been discovered by the enemy?

This ambush is too purposeful!

Perhaps, Jue and their side may also encounter an ambush!

Yes, as Gallo said.

Jue and the others just began to dissipate when they noticed that something was wrong.

In the mist.

Suddenly, a figure appeared.

At first, they thought they were nearby villagers, but soon, the stiff and uncoordinated movements of the figures made them aware of the strangeness.

"Attention, everyone, there seems to be something in the fog!"

Jue reminded her and woke up Han Qingluo, who was sleeping lightly, but before she could react, she was picked up by Jue.

"Wake up, the enemy is coming!"

Han Qingluo blinked, only then did he notice the strange figures slowly leaning over him, and instantly cheered up his spirit: "Why are there dead bodies here?" ”

"Obviously, we're being targeted!"

Jin leaned over and stretched out his hand to protect Han Qingluo behind him.
