Chapter 56: Unknown Cry
The waning moon is slanting to the west, hazy and distant, and the cold wind is gusting, bleak and biting.
The figures of the three of them walking next to each other looked extremely lonely and helpless in this black forest, as if they were swimming in the boundless sea of bitterness, trying to explore the colored oasis in front of them, especially in Bai Qiao's eyes, the fire of longing had reached the point where they could eat people.
An Zixian, who was faltering, had a dry face, and the extreme contradiction in his heart seemed to be worse than the physical exertion.
"Be alert, everybody!"
"What's wrong, Mo?" Bai Qiao asked tremblingly.
Mo Jingting had already realized the smell of danger beyond ordinary people's vigilance, just like on an ordinary day, at a certain moment, the inspiration that suddenly flashed in her mind, she felt that an unknown beast was secretly spying on them.
"yes, did you find anything?" An Zixian whispered, "Xiao Qiao and I are both physically and mentally exhausted, and no matter how vigilant we are, we can't detect it, but fortunately, Jingting, your state is better than ours." ”
As she spoke, she looked at Bai Qiao and said, "Xiao Qiao, let's go slower, her intuition should be quite accurate." ”
"Mm-hmm." Bai Qiao readily agreed.
"Master, Sister Xiao Qiao, there are beasts approaching us, and the breath is getting stronger and stronger."
Bai Qiao and An Zixian looked at each other, because they couldn't feel anything, so they had to look around vigilantly.
"Fortunately, the risk factor is not high, indicating that it is still a little far away. It may also be that there are many people who are afraid of us, and they are waiting for the driver! ”
"Xiaomo, don't scare me, listen to you like this, that beast is quite wise, how can you still know the time to wait? Do you want to wait for me and we will exhaust ourselves and catch them all again! It's terrifying! ”
"Xiao Qiao, don't think too much, unknown things are often not terrible, but your own cranky thoughts are the most terrifying."
"Sister Xiao Qiao, what Master said is right, don't think about it, let's keep walking, if there is any danger, I will let you react as soon as possible."
Bai Qiao carefully looked around, and then took An Zixian's arm and continued to move forward.
The night was still dark and silent.
I don't know how long it took, but I couldn't tell where it came from, it didn't look like the wind blowing the leaves, because there was a distinct sound of breathing approaching.
Bai Qiao, who heard the slightest movement, suddenly turned her head, and in the moonlight, she caught a glimpse of a pair of green eyes, and met her eyes directly, so frightened that she immediately took off her hand and shouted on the ground: "There are ghosts!" Ghosts! There are ghosts! ”
An Zixian, who heard the sound, also immediately looked behind, but the green eyes seemed to be disturbed and disappeared.
"Where?" An Zixian asked urgently, "What do you see?" ”
Bai Qiao's face was already pale with fright, his trembling throat was shaking, and he couldn't pronounce a clear word, but pointed behind him with his trembling little hand.
An Zixian had already looked in that direction and didn't find anything suspicious, so he turned to look at Mo Jingting and asked, "What about your intuition?" Or is Little Joe hallucinating himself? ”
Mo Jingting shrugged helplessly, and said: "Actually, that guy has followed us all the way, and he hasn't started, I didn't clearly tell you that I don't want you to think too much, don't worry, I can protect you." ”
"Xiao Mo ......," Bai Qiao wanted to speak and stopped.
"You, you, hey......" An Zixian sighed, "What should we do now?" Stay still or move on? ”
When Mo Jingting was about to answer, a cry came from a quiet distance, resentful and infiltrating.
"Listen......" Bai Qiao muttered in a voice that almost collapsed, "Is it a cry, or a human cry, barren mountains and mountains, it's not the three of us, there are only two possibilities, either the other person is lost, or it's a ghost." After saying that, he curled up, closed his eyes, covered his ears, and did not dare to look anywhere again.
The master and apprentice naturally heard this voice, but An Zixian may have been a matter of age, and he seemed quite calm, just looked around suspiciously, and then looked at Mo Jingting suspiciously.
"It is indeed the cry of a man!" An Zixian said.
"It's coming from that direction." Mo Jingting pointed to the direction to the left of the master, which corresponded to the direction of the waning moon in the westward oblique direction.
"Do you want to go there and have a look, maybe one of them is like us who got lost here and couldn't find the exit, and when the night came, he was so scared that he cried."
Mo Jingting also wanted to go over and take a look like this, but Bai Qiao suddenly got up and dragged Xiao Mo and said, "Don't! Don't go! I've heard Abba and the old man say that if you hear these sounds of people crying or singing at night, don't pay attention, it's a trap, and if you get into the way, you'll be in trouble. ”
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the resentful cry had been transformed into a pleasant singing voice, but it was not sung in Chinese, it sounded like Tibetan Sanskrit, although it was pleasant, but in this dark and deep forest, it seemed extremely terrifying.
This also made the three of them realize that it was definitely not a person who made this sound, as Bai Qiao said, maybe it was some kind of beast that was good at ventriloquism and wanted to use these disguised traps to divide the three of them, and then break them one by one.
Mo Jingting struggled to find the specific location of the beast that made this sound, trying to catch some suspicious shadows in the moonlight, and then quickly used data analysis to see what kind of sacredness this thing was that was not a human or a ghost.
However, this skill given to me by my grandmother is really too chicken, there is no thermal imaging, even if the waning moon can see some hazy directions, but if you want to capture the beast, I am afraid it is a bit of a fool's dream. Thinking of this, I can't help but complain a little about Aunt Rou and my grandmother's stinginess, building myself into a superman-like body, but giving such a skill like a mobile database, as well as the superpower that needs to be activated, I don't know if I'm fooling myself.
Seeing the more and more frightened little Sister Qiao, Mo Jingting now just wanted that beast that was not a human or a ghost to be bold, and directly dedicated herself to a fight to the death with herself, after all, in addition to data analysis, she also practiced the skills of fists and feet, and in the month that she was observed in the base, she was strengthened by assistant 36, so she was even more confident.
Therefore, there is nothing to be afraid of a beast, just afraid of that devilish beast, who has been hiding in the shadows and dealing with himself, Master, and Sister Xiao Qiao, and I don't know if there are accomplices who are also waiting for an opportunity.
Thinking about these things, Mo Jingting couldn't help but feel a little panicked in her heart, and she really wanted to shout, "Come out and have a duel with the old lady!" "However, I can only think about it, if this is the case, if I don't scare the beast, I will definitely scare the master and Sister Xiao Qiao half to death first, I don't know why, I thought I was scared crazy.
"Xiao Mo," Bai Qiao shook Mo Jingting's arm hard, "What are you thinking?" ”
Mo Jingting, who was dragged back to her thoughts, looked at the delicate little Qiao sister in front of her, knowing that she must have looked like she had been immobilized just now, "It's okay, it's okay......" Saying that, Mo Jingting felt the danger of the beast soaring, and immediately said: "Stand back and prepare to fight!" ”
Bai Qiao: "......"
An Zixian: "......"
The two looked at each other.......
"Master, be careful!"
