Chapter 23 Separate Actions

As soon as we heard Qibao shouting like this, we didn't dare to think about it, so we ran over in a hurry. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: ะจะฉะฉ.(7)(9)XS.ัะžะœ.

Following what he pointed to, he looked into the bushes, and saw a hole the size of a bowl in the ground, and the inside was pitch black, and it was impossible to see the end.

On the edge of this hole, there are also several paw prints, which look a bit like rat footprints, but they are much larger than ordinary rat footprints.

"This brute ran away?" Feng Zhenguo squatted on the ground, holding a flashlight, and studied with a puzzled face: "Look at the direction of these footprints...... I guess I'm in a hole......."

"What's the grandson?" Situ also came over with great interest.

"Hey! I didn't lie to you! When Shippo said this, the expression on his face was very contradictory, as if he didn't even believe his own words, but it didn't sound like he was joking: "I saw with my own eyes that rat hit a 'hole' and ran away!!" โ€

"Hit the 'hole' and ran away?" The old man frowned: "This should be a 'hole' made in advance, right?" โ€

As he spoke, the old man also swept the 'hole' and 'hole' with a flashlight: "It's 'quite' deep, at least ten meters......."

"No!" Qibao explained anxiously: "I saw the 'hole' it hit with my own eyes! Four little paws go down with one plan! โ€

"Where's the soil?" Feng Zhenguo asked: "Since it's a 'hole', it has to be a little dirt splashed, right?" โ€

Hearing this question, Qibao also seemed a little puzzled, scratched his head, and said that he didn't know.

"I didn't see the dirt spill anyway." Qibao whispered, "When I saw the mouse, most of its body was in the dirt, and it was still ........ inside."

"What does that mouse look like?" I couldn't help but ask.

"It can stand like a human, it's 'quite 'fat', and its tail is very long, a bit like a squirrel." Qibao said truthfully, thought about it, and added: "There seems to be something on its back, a large black piece, and I can't see it clearly." โ€

As soon as the words fell, Qibao seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said, "That mouse is white!" Look at the thief pretty! โ€

"So strange?" I laughed and said, "That can't be a rare species, right?" โ€

"Qibao, you said that it was 'quite 'fat', could it be because it was too 'fat', so it was stuck outside the 'hole' and couldn't get in, and it took a long time to go down........ The old man frowned and asked: "When you see this situation, you will be mistaken, this 'hole' should have been there from the beginning." โ€

"Maybe." Qibao shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "I can't remember the details either...... Maybe I'm wrong......"

"You must be mistaken." Feng Zhenguo said funny: "What kind of mouse can hit the 'hole' so fast?" Pangolins aren't so ruthless! โ€

At this moment, in the deep mountains and old forests in the distance, there was a sudden heart-rending wail.

The wail, when heard, was not the sound of a living man, but more like the sound of a wild beast.

I looked in the direction where the sound was coming from, and I saw a black 'cloud' and 'cloud' in the sky, like fog.

When I looked closely, I shuddered.

"Lord!! Heavenly!!! โ€

Hearing me shout, not only the old man, but everyone present raised their heads in unison and looked in the direction I was pointing.

Because the sky has gradually darkened, the light in the forest is not sufficient, and even if we have flashlights, many places still look so dim.

If you hadn't looked as closely as I did, I wouldn't have been able to tell what that black fog was.

To put it bluntly, on the outermost layer, it looks like fog, but those fogs are very thin, and what is wrapped in them is countless birds!

"What's going on?? How did all the birds in the forest fly away?? Situ's eyes widened, and he seemed to be frightened by this apocalyptic scene: "Master Shen!" It's ......."

"Evacuate with you!" The old man did not hesitate to arrange: "Don't get involved in this matter!" โ€

"Master....... What the hell are those birds all about? I asked cautiously.

"Those are ordinary birds, but the black mist wrapped around them should be corpse qi." The old man gritted his teeth and said, "I have never encountered such a situation....... The corpse qi will be so heavy that it will be on this ........ What the fuck is going on.......

"Does this have anything to do with that Gu Master?" Situ asked with a frown.

The old man thought for a moment and said, very likely.

"How?" Situ hurriedly asked.

"First, the appearance of these corpse qi was too sudden, and it was too much of a coincidence, as soon as we started chasing that Gu Master, this kind of mutation appeared in the mountains and forests........"

"Second, it's also a question that I haven't been able to figure out, that Gu master still hasn't escaped after planting human melons, even if you officers and soldiers have come to close the mountain, and the people above have stared at him, he still won't escape......."

"Master, there should only be two possibilities, right?" I whispered, slowly analyzing: "Either he doesn't want to escape, or he can't, and in the current situation, the former has a good chance." โ€

"Brother Shen, why doesn't he want to run?" Shippo asked me curiously.

"There must be a purpose, but I can't guess what the purpose is." I smiled wryly and shook my head: "Maybe I want to fight with the official family on purpose, maybe I have something else to do......."

At this time, the old man seemed to have made up his mind, patted Situ on the shoulder, and his tone was very firm, and it sounded like there was no room for negotiation.

"You take them back, and no one can stay, including my grandson." The old man said, his eyes became serious: "Don't get involved in this matter, it's easy to cause death, understand?" โ€

Situ snorted, didn't hesitate, and simply listened to the old man's opinion.

"Why don't we go together?" Situ asked, still a little uneasy: "You are here alone...... That's fine, right? โ€

"Don't worry." The old man smiled: "Not to mention whether I can clean up that Gu Master, if I want to get out of the situation of 'fighting' with him, I can still do this." โ€

Hearing this, Situ's expression was obviously a little more solemn.

He is not a fool, he is more 'fine' than anyone else.

As soon as he heard the old man say this kind of thing, he could directly guess the weight of that Gu master in the old man's heart.

I guess, Situ thought that the old man could win that Gu Master at first, but now that he looks at it....... I'm afraid it's a little risky!

"Master, shall I go with you?" I asked tentatively: "As the saying goes, three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang, and I give you a hand, that's not ........"

"Don't talk nonsense, get out of here." The old man scolded very unceremoniously, and he had a kind of urging: "The more people, the more flaws we have, and what Mr. is most afraid of is flaws....... Forget it, no matter how many explanations you have, you won't understand, so follow them back! โ€

Hearing this, I was also a little hesitant.

"Let's go." Situ patted me on the shoulder: "Trust your grandfather, he can." โ€

I nodded, and told the old man very seriously: "If you can't beat it, run away, this is what you taught me, don't forget!" โ€

"You melon baby! Do your best to destroy your own prestige! Lao Tzu can't lift it up like that? โ€

The old man was so angry that he stomped his feet, as if he thought I had dismantled him.

"You can lift up, among so many people, you are the one who can stand up the most!" I smiled and comforted, and looked up, only to see that the black fog mixed with countless birds had reached a thousand meters away in the air, getting farther and farther away from us.

At this time, the old man didn't say anything more to us, and strode towards the woods in front of him with his duffel bag on his back.

"Little Situ, if you go back, you will let people close the mountain, and you must not let people come up again."

The old man said without looking back, and his tone was very solemn.

"There are strange things in this forest, and the corpse is getting heavier and heavier, as if there is a sin about to be born."

"Sin is about to be born??" Situ also became nervous, and asked the old man anxiously: "What evil??" Need me to call for support? โ€

"Don't scream."

The old man's voice grew farther and lower.

"Like....... It's too late........"
