Chapter 222: The Big Black Bird
Suspicion took root in his heart, how to look at it and feel that the surrounding environment was wrong, Ye Wenxiu's face became even worse. He has always been a person who can't hide things in his heart, and his joy and anger are all in shape. When the moonlight shone down, his sudden change in face looked a little terrifying, and it scared Xue Rou.
Yuan Junfeng stretched out his hand to cover Xue Rou's eyes, his palm was dry and warm, making Xue Rou's heart move. He looked at Ye Wenxiu dissatisfied, "What are you doing?" Just because you won't let you go, you show such an expression? If you will, go yourself. No one is stopping you here! β
Yuan Junfeng's dissatisfaction in his heart has also been suppressed for a long time, originally because this guy has been thinking about his own cabbage, he has a bad impression of him, not to mention, his personality is still like this, and it is even more unpleasant.
Ye Wenxiu's face was pale and pale, he originally felt that this environment was wrong, but it was only because of Yuan Junfeng's combat effectiveness that he temporarily dispelled his desire to explore the truth. Now hearing the other party's squeeze, he was furious, and finally didn't bother to explain, and directly handed over the map in his hand, "Since that's the case, then let's go our separate ways." Save this son here, and I also think you are an eyesore. β
With that, he threw the map to the ground, and with a lot of energy, he turned and burrowed into the woods. The woods were filled with fog, which soon obscured his figure.
"Ye Gongzi!" Fang Changming looked at his menacing back, and then turned to look at the few servants left behind him. This time, two-thirds of the loss has been lost. Originally, they were used to protect their own servants, but they are also living beings. But when he thought of his father's explanation to him before he came, and then thought of the people who had already been damaged, not to mention that he took the initiative to give up the competition.
Fang Changming gritted his teeth and waved his hand at the servant, "Let's go, follow me to find Ye Gongzi." β
Xue Rou also had a deeper understanding of Ye Wenxiu's strength, how could there be such a stingy man. Although it is said that there is no bad intention, it is too naΓ―ve to say that it is too naΓ―ve. This place looks eerie, "Are you really going?" There are so many mist in this forest, what if you are also in it? β
Fang Changming smiled bitterly, "Then I can only accept my fate." Don't go over, Miss Xue, Yuan Gongzi. β
Without looking back, he led his servants to follow Ye Wenxiu's footsteps and got in.
There is only one Han Dongchi left, and he looks very embarrassed when he thinks about it, the two have been friends for many years, although they had an unpleasant quarrel not long ago, but just like Ye Wenxiu was angry and worried about him. Han Dongchi was the same, he took two steps uneasily, and still left with his hands.
Xue Rou sighed helplessly, "Brother Yuan, what now?" One Ye Wenxiu led everyone into the mist miasma, and now there are only two of us left. β
The darker it was, the faster the fog rose, and Xue Rou found that the fog in the forest had only become thicker after everyone had left for just a few minutes. It was as if it was a deadly monster, solidified even more solidly after devouring fresh flesh.
Yuan Junfeng's face became more and more solemn, he clenched Xue Rou's hand, and he didn't know whether he could get out of the misty woods, "Rou'er, hold my hand." No matter what happens, don't let go. You remember that only the touch of your hands is real, and nothing else matters. β
Xue Rou nodded, "I know, Brother Yuan, I won't be dominated by illusions." You too. β
Her firm gaze met Yuan Junfeng's gentle gaze, and they all looked at each other and smiled, seeing each other's deep friendship.
Even if you die here, as long as you are with your beloved, it is worth it.
But she Xue Rou didn't believe it, there is really a peerless way in the world. After paying so much, she is bound to get the Leng's lone book, and her footsteps must not be tripped here. She wants to go out, and she has to stay with Brother Yuan for the rest of her life.
Yuan Junfeng held Xue Rou's hand and carefully pushed aside the vines and branches that stretched out on both sides. He folded a thumb-thick branch and carved a symbol in the place he passed, marking the way he had come.
After going back to the original point again, Xue Rou heard Ye Wenxiu's complaining voice coming from not far away, "Why is this ghost place again?" Wouldn't this son be able to get out of this broken forest today? I don't believe it. β
Xue Rou hooked the corners of her lips silently, what a coincidence, I don't believe it.
She raised her head and pretended to look at Yuan Junfeng relaxedly, "Brother Yuan, let's go find them." If there are more people, maybe there will be an idea. β
Yuan Junfeng looked at her dotingly, and shook his head helplessly, "You......"
Xue Rou is kind-hearted, the reason why he didn't follow just now was just because there were enough people on their side, not to mention that the two of them couldn't completely protect that group of people. His life is still hanging. But Yuan Junfeng knew that Xue Rou had never let go of their safety in his heart.
When two passers-by met, the first to be embarrassed was Ye Wenxiu. He coughed softly, as if he was a little embarrassed. Originally, after turning into the woods, I began to regret that it was very unwise to shuttle through it alone. But he wants to save face, and it is impossible for him to turn around and stick to Yuan Junfeng's cold face. Besides, I didn't keep him. After glancing at Xue Rou, Ye Wenxiu looked away again, "What about parting ways?" β
Xue Rou frowned and looked at him, "What are you muttering?" It's a prefect who speaks a little louder. Is it so unconfident? β
Ye Wenxiu was choked by her and couldn't speak, "You woman, can't you say something nice?" β
Yuan Junfeng pulled Xue Rou behind him and glanced at him with an unkind expression, "Simpler, have you found an exit?" β
Fang Changming shook his head, "I've been looking for a long time, but I haven't found an exit, it's like a circle." β
Yuan Junfeng nodded, "Me and Rou'er too." I carved a symbol every five trees, but I went around and around and finally returned to the place where I first carved it. β
What is not mentioned is that the two teams obviously went in different directions, but they still met in separate places in the end. Although it was not spoken, everyone's heart sank. If you are trapped for a day or two, it is fine, but if you are trapped all the time, what should you do?
The trees were covered with greenery, but the green was gloomy and lifeless, obscuring the day. It's like now, if you don't remember the time when you came out, and delay it for a few more days, I'm afraid you won't even be able to tell the difference between day and night.
The servant beside Fang Changming suddenly exclaimed, and regardless of the dignity of the master and servant, he grabbed his sleeve, "Childe, look at the sky!" β
When everyone looked up, there was a dark green glow in the sky covered by the shade of the trees, the color was the brightest light in the night, but those who saw this light only felt that their scalps were numb, and their hairs were about to stand on end.
Ye Wenxiu was shocked and frightened, "This thing...... Is this thing following us all along? β
Hovering in the sky was the big black bird I had encountered earlier. Before entering the woods, it looked like a ferocious beast, but now under the black imprint, the dark green eyes looked extraordinarily bright, but they looked eerie and evil.
The servant shouted, "Childe! What are we going to do! In our hometown, such a blackbird symbolizes death. Are we going to die here? Dead in a dead man's pit? Buried with those bones for I don't know how many years?! β
Ye Wenxiu looked at him with an unkind expression, "Shut up." Sewing your crow's beak on is better than anything else. β
At this time, the more dangerous it is, the more you can't talk nonsense, not because of any prophetic effect, but because a simple sentence can pierce people's sensitive nerves to the limit.
Fang Changming sighed, "Ah Chang, go to the back." Don't be afraid, what's the matter, this son is in front of you. β
Running and stopping, I don't know how long I walked, Ye Wenxiu patted his legs irritably, panting, "How long do you have to run, what does this ghost keep following us?" β
Yuan Junfeng sneered, "If you don't want to run, if you want to die, no one will stop you." β
Xue Rou shook her head at him disapprovingly, "Brother Yuan, don't say that." β
This ghost place is too evil, there are many people and great power, and I am afraid that there will be more opportunities to go out. Relying on the two of them to fight alone, they have more than enough heart but not enough strength. Although Ye Wenxiu's personality is a little disgusting, he doesn't have any bad intentions, if he makes people angry in the woods like just now, something happens, Xue Rou will feel uncomfortable.
She raised her eyes to see the blackbird hovering in the sky, like a giant eagle, tilting its head to look at them, not approaching. It looks very simple, but when it comes to the dark green eyes, the contrast is suddenly terrifying.
Xue Rou thought for a moment, and said categorically, "Back to the original point." β
"Back to square one?" Yuan Junfeng held her hand and looked at her, but it was not a suspicious look, but warm and worried.
Xue Rou bent her eyes and smiled, "Really, Brother Yuan, let's go back to the original point." β
Han Dongchi, who had been standing silently beside Ye Wenxiu and didn't speak, opened his mouth, "Miss Xue, why do you want to go back to the original point?" Besides, we have been walking around this woods for a long time, and we have not found a way out, and now it will be a little difficult to return to the original point. β
Xue Rou pulled Yuan Junfeng to turn around, "The first question, I can't explain it to you." I also need to confirm my conjectures and validate them. The second question is that I have a way to get back to the grave of the dead, and if you wish, follow me. If you don't want to, go find your own way out. β
Ye Wenxiu bore the brunt of it and followed him. Although Han Dongchi hesitated, he only followed Ye Wenxiu's steps. What's more, Fang Changming is clear.
In the end, it was still the group that went back to the place where Yuan Junfeng had engraved the symbol, the big bird had been circling above their heads before, and the original plan to follow the bird to find the way was rejected. Xue Rou decided to go back to the original point, and sure enough, walking towards the symbol that had been drawn, the big black bird seemed to suddenly have a direction, and it flew faster.
Xue Rou clenched Yuan Junfeng's hand, "Quick!" Brother Yuan! Let's run after that bird! I can definitely go back! β
