Chapter 281: Low Earth (1)
After the commander and Tingfeng left for a long time, everyone prepared for another half a day before they could barely make a few torches.
Thinking that Bailing was underground, Shulan couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "By the way, Zhuge Fan, how did you say that Sister Bailing would be underground?" Could there be any trap here? β
Zhuge Fan raised his head and glanced lazily at Shu Lanruo, "This is not accurate, there are four possibilities, first, she fell into some kind of very hidden trap, second, in the fog, she was taken away, and this person knew the ability to listen to the wind, so he put her in a dark room underground, and the enemy himself hid, third, she was caught in some kind of illusion or confusion on the way, it may also be mind control, and then she entered the underground due to some coincidence or being controlled, fourth, For some special reason, she could not tell the reason for leaving, so she had to leave the team on her own. β
Shulan Ruo remembered that the two mysterious people who were familiar with the terrain that Bai Ci said, and the second one was very consistent, so she asked, "Didn't you say that there was a secret force that had been playing ghosts before?" Could it be the same group?"
"I haven't seen that guy, and I don't know what they're capable of, but it's the most likely."
"What are these people doing in this woods? If you're not a savage, won't you ask clearly before doing things?" Shulan Ruo was a little angry, and expressed her incomprehension of such an arrogant behavior of these people.
"You're so naΓ―ve." Zhuge Fan snorted coldly, "If they are doing something unspeakable, and you ask them what they are doing, they will not be able to answer truthfully, then how can they believe that what we say is true?" It is only wisest to eliminate all possible scenarios at the source. β
After Zhuge Fan said this, it is very in line with the way some special events are handled, even in her own world, isn't there often such a thing? For example, a group of drug lords, whose stronghold is hidden in a very secluded place, and they have not seen a single person pass by for several years, and then someone enters their stronghold, they naturally cannot think that it is just a group of bored people who come for a walk.
Shu Lanruo could only sigh helplessly, remembering a sentence from a book, "Gods and ghosts are not terrible, what is terrible is the human heart." β
Then everyone held torches and searched all the way along the marks left by the commander and Tingfeng, but fortunately, the two commanders did not go far, and soon they converged.
"Listen to the wind, how is it, have you found Bai Ling's specific location?" The judge asked.
Tingfeng shook his head, "No, Bai Ling still keeps moving, I looked for a while with the military commander, but we couldn't find how to get underground." β
"That's it, it's not a way for us to be so blindly searching, let's locate the location where we first found Bai Ling by listening to the wind, two people in a group, spread in a circle, so that the search will not only increase the search range, but also will not cause someone to act alone and disappear, each team will make a mark in their own search range, and after an hour, if they haven't found it, they will return to the location point to gather."
After speaking, the judge looked at Bai Ci, "Young Master Bai, what do you think?" β
Bai Ci nodded, "This is a good solution, so be it, I'll be in a group with this stupid fish." β
With this idiot group? Shu Lanruo looked at Bai Ci in disbelief, and even exaggerated her ears, wanting to prove that she had heard it wrong, which tendon did this idiot young master not tie right? The two of them should be the best in this team? Do you want to form the weakest squad?
"What do you see? Are you too excited that you stupid fish can be in a group with Young Master Ben? Although I look like a jade tree, don't be too excited, after all, you are my companion, I will definitely take care of you. Bai Ci put aside the hair hanging down from his forehead, so he said with a chic face.
Shulan Ruo felt that she was about to be disgusted to death, but it was not good to pout her face in front of so many people, so she could only nod her head busily, "Yes, yes, it is really my honor to be in a group with the young master." β
Soon, everyone decided on the distribution of the team, Bai Ci and Shu Lanruo, Wang Ziling and Zhuge Fan, Judge and Liuying, Army Commander and Tingfeng, and the remaining four Bai family subordinates The situation is more special, because there is also a Bai family subordinate carrying an unconscious horse in front, so these two people naturally cannot be counted as a group, so they can only be with Zhang Lingqin Haiyang.
The grimace tree at night is more hideous and terrifying than during the day, but due to the experience of the day, everyone deliberately avoids those grimaces, Zhuge Fan's suggestion is to watch his feet walk, so that he can avoid stepping on the trap on the ground, and he will not see the grimace.
Shu Lanruo still had a trace of fear in her heart about the scene during the day, and kept her head down, pulling the hem of Bai Ci's clothes to follow him.
"Look at your little bit of talent, what's there to be afraid of?" Bai Ci glanced at Shu Lanruo with disgust, "Hey, can you not embarrass the master?" β
"It's not that I'm afraid! I'm just worried about what I will do if I fall for the illusion and hurt the young master, I'm doing this for your good! Shulanruo still refused to raise her head, and followed Bai Ci closely.
"Just you?" The contempt in Bai Ci's eyes couldn't be concealed at all, "What can your little arms and legs do to Young Master Ben?" Even if you fall for the illusion, what can you do to me? Drowning me with saliva? Or do you want to kill me with your voice?"
Shulan choked, thinking that Bai Ci had become like that, and still had the face to mock herself? But she was afraid that she would be left behind after talking back, she was very afraid of this dark and strange environment, and after thinking about it, she had to shut up and didn't dare to go back.
Silently following Bai Ci, and didn't know how far he had gone, Shu Lanruo suddenly sighed, "Hey, young master, you see that mushroom is so strange." β
