Chapter 291: The Journey Home (5)
"Wang Jianning, watch him, don't let this guy run around." After making sure that he couldn't ask anything more from this guy, Captain Jiang decisively ordered his subordinate 'a young man with a loofah-faced'.
"Yes, sir! I don't think this guy will get us into trouble easily as long as he's not stupid...... yes, Brother Pete! Wang Jianning said with a smile as he leaned down and grabbed Pete's shoulder in the seat in front of him.
At that moment, Pete felt his 'own cheeks' twitch...... Could it be that he just got out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den again?
Regarding 'what is happening ahead', Jing Guantian only paid a little attention to it, and didn't care about it anymore. From this Pete's 'running speed' and 'physical coordination', he judged that this guy was not an anomaly, at most an ordinary person with a relatively strong body. Therefore, he didn't say a word about Captain Jiang's behavior of accepting him.
Time fell silent again, and just as they thought they were about to leave the forest and reach their destination, there was a screeching sound of brakes ahead.
"Brake ββ!"
"Dongzi...... What's going on? Startled, Erha hurriedly probed to the 'off-road vehicle in front' and asked, Dongzi was the driver of the off-road vehicle in front.
"There's an obstacle ahead." Dongzi's voice came from the front.
"Got an obstacle?" Erha frowned, "I'll take a look." As he spoke, he led a few people to jump out of the car.
Captain Jiang thought about it, was a little uneasy, and followed.
When they got to the front, everyone realized what the obstacle Dongzi was talking about, and they saw that there were many plants with sharp tips like iron nails lying horizontally on the road ahead...... The spikes of the plant glowed with an eerie cold light in the 'dark sky', and it was not easy to look at.
"What kind of plant is this? See you for the first time? β
"Strange, why didn't you see this thing when you came out?"
"Erha! Get a few people to clean up the road! Captain Jiang gave a direct order.
"Good!" Erha answered, and then got up and went over to move the plant.
However, at the moment when Erha was about to do it, an accident suddenly happened, but I saw that the plant suddenly wriggled like a python, and the vines with sharp spikes wound towards Erha.
"Brother Dog, be careful!" Unexpectedly, this accident happened, and several people who came with him were suddenly shocked.
Fortunately, Erha's speed was not blown, and at the moment of crisis, his figure suddenly jumped, leaving a few ghost shadows in place, and the entanglement of the plant suddenly fell into the air.
"Want to sneak up on me? You're looking for deathββ! Erha showed a hint of annoyance in his eyes, and he picked up his dagger and stabbed down at the plant.
Although this plant is very flexible, it can't match Erha's speed, and after a few rounds, it was cut into several pieces by Erha.
Before everyone could applaud, something strange happened again...... But seeing that 'this cut of plants' turned into 'clumps of black gas' and dissipated directly into the air, leaving no debris behind.
This strange situation made everyone look at each other.
"Bring that Pete and ask him what he knows?" Seeing this, Captain Jiang felt a little uneasy in his heart, thought about it, and turned around and said.
"Okay!" Someone in the rear answered.
Soon after, Pete was brought in.
"Turned black?" Pete was obviously a little confused, "Whatββ? β
Seeing that his confused expression didn't seem to be fake, Captain Jiang suddenly felt a little irritable in his heart, waved his hand, and motioned for someone to take him down.
"Zhang Hong, use the transmission note to contact the family and see if you can contact them." Captain Jiang spoke again.
"Yes, sir." When Zhang Hong heard this, he immediately pinched the law with one hand, and then saw a piece of jade slip floating from his body with spiritual light.
"I'm Zhang Hong, please reply when you hear it, please reply when you hear it." Zhang Hong said to Yu Jian.
I have to say that this jade slip was originally quite ancient, but Zhang Hong came to ...... Hearing the reply, the scene is indeed a bit unharmonious.
But at this juncture, no one cares about that.
"Hear please reply, hear please reply!" Zhang Hong asked five or six more times, but there was still no sound coming from the other side.
An eerie atmosphere began to creep through the crowd.
"Boss......" Someone subconsciously shouted to Captain Jiang, and his voice was already hoarse.
Captain Jiang's face was a little gloomy, and finally made a decision: "It's not too far from my home, let's go on the road first." β
"Oh." Everyone didn't say anything when they heard this, and sat back in the car one after another.
After a while, the car started again.
Then, fifteen minutes passed...... The convoy was still moving 'in the middle of the dense woods', and did not go out of the mountains 'as everyone expected'.
Seeing this scene, the crowd began to feel a little uneasy, and an indescribable atmosphere began to spread among the crowd.
"It's foggy, sir." Someone said as they looked at the 'increasingly hazy woods around them'.
"Fogging?" Captain Jiang frowned, "Stop......"
As soon as he shouted to stop, he didn't want a big truck to suddenly rush out of the mist in front of him, and went straight to the 'off-road vehicle in front of the convoy' and crashed into it......
"Oh...... Shet! In a hurry, Dongzi burst out with a foul language and hurriedly hit the steering wheel.
Fortunately, he is not an ordinary person, but an awakened person, and the speed of nervous reaction is not comparable to ordinary people, after a burst of sudden braking, the car stopped steadily on the side of the road, and there were no things such as rear-end collision and ditching.
He was the lead car, and when he saw him evading, the other cars naturally followed suit and got out of the way.
After the big truck and a horse crossed the convoy, they drove away directly, without the slightest intention of stopping and apologizing...... Disappeared into the fog in the blink of an eye.
"His grandmother is a paw, can you fucking drive?" A foul word broke out in the off-road vehicle in the rear, but it was Xiao Wu, the driver of the last car.
"Okay Xiaowu, dissipate your anger, it's not like nothing happened." The team member next to Xiao Wu who was in the same car as him persuaded.
β¦β¦
"Captain, the fog is getting bigger and bigger, and it's getting dark, so I can't see the road clearly." Someone in the vehicle in front shouted.
"Boss, what do you think? Is it to move on? Or ......" Erha looked at Captain Jiang with a blank expression.
Captain Jiang's face was a little heavy, in this weather, if they were attacked, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. After thinking about it for a long time, he gritted his teeth for the last time, "Go back first, I remember that there is a small hotel at the entrance to the mountain, we will stay there for one night, and then enter the mountain when it is dawn." β
"Okay!" Everyone was relieved when they heard this, and hurriedly shunted the car and went back. To be honest, there are indeed a lot of weird things that happened along the way, which made everyone's hearts full of uneasiness, and it was naturally good to go back and recuperate.
