Chapter Twenty-Eight: Fingers
At this point, it's almost dusk!
After discovering that Luo Fang and Ouyang Hu were not in the place where they were separated at that time, and had disappeared, Zhou Zijian panicked for a moment.
He couldn't help but think of the terrifying Titan Python, this island was even more terrifying than he imagined, and he didn't know if Luo Fang would be in danger.
If something happened to Luo Fang, after returning to the starting point, Zhou Zijian knew that he would inevitably bear the wrath of the three Luo Yan, and it would definitely not be the result he wanted.
But fortunately, after all, after going through a lot of things, Zhou Zijian quickly settled down, held back the panic in his heart, and carefully observed the surroundings.
There is no difference between the surroundings and when you left, and there are no obvious traces, which means that nothing major has happened here.
Zhou Zijian didn't think that there would be a terrifying monster on the island that would make Luo Fang lose even his ability to resist, since there were no traces of a fight nearby, this showed that Luo Fang was much less likely to encounter danger.
Could it be that Luo Fang and Ouyang Hu left on their own?
But why did they leave?
Something must have happened during this period, otherwise Luo Fang would not have left suddenly without informing Zhou Zijian.
Zhou Zijian looked around carefully, corresponding to the impression he had left before, trying to find out any traces left by Luo Fang, but unfortunately, he looked around and found nothing.
And while Zhou Zijian was looking around, Chen Mu was also looking around.
First of all, Chen Mu noticed the unfolded canvas and the humanoid traces left on it, although it had dried up, there was still a fishy and sour smell on it, and he was nauseated.
In addition, all the things that the Titan Python spit out were carefully observed by Chen Mu.
He occasionally stepped aside and bent down to take a closer look, and occasionally stood up and thought quietly.
Zhou Zijian didn't notice anything, turned his head to look at Chen Mu, and his eyes lit up. Zhou Zijian had no doubts about Chen Mu's observation ability, and everything he had experienced before, such as the stone spider, had been proven.
At this moment, Zhou Zijian pinned his hopes on Chen Mu, and couldn't help interrupting Chen Mu's thinking and asked: "Chen Mu, my boss was originally here, but now I don't know where to go, ...... you?"
Before Zhou Zijian's words were finished, he suddenly saw Chen Mu turn his head abruptly and look into the distance, his eyes suddenly burst out with a terrifying light.
In the place he was looking at, a red sun had already set for the most part, and the entire sky was blood-red, and at a glance, it looked like a sea of blood was gushing in.
"Whoosh!"
Chen Mu's whole body instantly rushed out in the direction of the setting sun, his pace was extremely fast, and under the light of the setting sun, it seemed as if he was chasing the light.
Chen Mu's running wind brought up a fallen leaf on the ground melodiously, and the fallen leaf swirled, and then slowly fell. In just a few moments, Chen Mu had already disappeared into the distance.
When Zhou Zijian saw Chen Mu's actions, he immediately knew that Chen Mu must have discovered something, he immediately thought of the disappeared Luo Fang, suspected that Chen Mu's discovery was related to Luo Fang, and rushed over with Chen Mu's footsteps under concern.
Boom!
The sound of several metal crashes came, and the sound was very rapid and crisp, like the sound of pearls shaking all over the plate.
However, the sound disappeared after just a few seconds, Zhou Zijian started late, and his speed was a little worse than Chen Mu, and when he ran over, he saw Chen Mu standing there with a guarded face, holding an alloy short knife in his hand, and assuming a defensive posture.
"What's wrong? What happened? ”
Zhou Zijian looked around, didn't see any figure, and couldn't help but speak.
"There's something!" Chen Mu's voice was cold and emotionless.
"What's that?"
Zhou Zijian took a few steps forward, and suddenly his eyes froze, attracted by the marks on the ground.
I saw that on the ground about a meter in front of Chen Mu, there were some very messy triangular footprints like animals, these footprints were very familiar, and Zhou Zijian immediately remembered that after Wu Fangfang was killed before, he had left similar footprints around.
Could it be that the murderer who killed Wu Fangfang has returned?
Zhou Zijian's mind flashed the specimen of the little demon he saw in the hut, according to what the chief of the headhunter clan said, Wu Fangfang should have been killed by the so-called "demon", could it be that Chen Mu was fighting with the demon just now?
Suddenly, Zhou Zijian took a few quick steps, squatted down, and in an unobtrusive position on the ground, a hook that was an inch long and curved attracted his attention.
It seemed to be the claws of a wild beast, only longer and sharper, like a murder weapon.
Zhou Zijian stretched out his hand, picked up the hook, and pinched it in his hand.
Suddenly, the hook suddenly moved, bent as if it was alive, which startled Zhou Zijian, and he threw it away violently.
Then, the hook fell to the ground, and there was no movement, so Zhou Zijian walked over, plucked it with a branch, and picked it up again.
If you look closely, the hook is also attached to a part that resembles a finger, but that part is grayish-brown, extremely rough, and a little hard to the touch.
"It's ...... Devil's fingers? ”
Zhou Zijian couldn't help but ask.
Chen Mu nodded, seeing that there had been no movement around him, he seemed to relax a little and put away his defensive posture.
"You cut off the demon's finger?" Zhou Zijian couldn't help but ask, "Did you see it?" What does it look like? Is it as short as a clown? ”
Chen Mu shook his head slowly, "It should be able to be invisible, I can't see it." ”
"Stealth?"
Zhou Zijian was taken aback by Chen Mu's statement, but he immediately thought of the bizarre death of Wu Fangfang at that time. Although it was dark at that time, the murderer killed Wu Fangfang surrounded by everyone, if it was indeed invisible, it could be said.
"Huh?" Immediately, Zhou Zijian had doubts and looked at Chen Mu, "Since it can be invisible, how did you find it?" ”
Chen Mu said: "When it moves, it can leave traces, and I can find it." If it was quiet, I wouldn't have noticed. ”
After listening to Chen Mu's words, Zhou Zijian nodded suddenly, his heart turned out to be like this, this is reasonable.
Although Chen Mu's observation is amazing, after all, he is only a secondary strengthener, and he found that Chen Mu also has a situation that he can't detect, Zhou Zijian feels that this is reasonable, otherwise Chen Mu is too "god".
"Why did the demon suddenly appear here again?" Zhou Zijian thought for a moment, "Does it want to attack us?" ”
Chen Mu shook his head, "No, its target shouldn't be us. I think it's tracking someone, just passing by, and then I found out. ”
"Who to track...... ...... around here" Zhou Zijian's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed: "It's happened!" ”
If Chen Mu's prediction was correct, if the demon was here to track someone down, there was no doubt that it was very likely that Luo Fang had appeared nearby.
Luo Fang is in danger!
"Chen Mu, do you know the direction of the demon when he left?" Zhou Zijian asked anxiously.
Chen Mu shook his head and said, "I didn't notice how it left." ”
"Suffered, suffered!" Zhou Zijian was so anxious that he almost jumped up, he couldn't help but glance at his watch, and complained: "This bullshit island, bullshit mission, it's forbidden to send messages, Nima, it's good to be able to send one!" ”
Zhou Zijian, who rarely speaks foul language, couldn't help but scold.
Immediately, he looked at Chen Mu and said solemnly: "Chen Mu, help me find the boss and find Luo Fang." He can't have an accident, and if something happens to him, I'm doomed too! ”
Chen Mu looked at Zhou Zijian, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "Okay!" But ......"
"But what?" Zhou Zijian was a little anxious, "I promise everything!" ”
"But I don't have a clue, I don't know where to look!" Chen Mu finished what he wanted to say.
Zhou Zijian was stunned, this is indeed a problem, he looked around, gritted his teeth, and looked at Chen Mu very firmly: "Let's look for it separately!" Once found, build a fire so that the other party can see it. ”
Now that the sun had almost completely set, it was dark all around, and it was estimated that it would be completely dark after a while. Therefore, ignition is indeed a way of communicating with each other.
However, it is a bit risky to go it alone!
For Chen Mu, he can easily see things at night, and there is nothing yet. But for Zhou Zijian, the demon who is good at stealth will be more dangerous in the dark night.
Chen Mu wanted to remind Zhou Zijian, but just when he saw Zhou Zijian's eyes, he understood that Zhou Zijian didn't realize that it would be extremely dangerous to separate at this time, but that he still chose this way when he realized the danger.
"Good!"
This time, Chen Mu didn't say anything more, just nodded in agreement.
"Thank you!"
Zhou Zijian showed a grateful look, then looked around and ran in one direction.
"Boss ......"
Then, Zhou Zijian's voice came from afar.
Chen Mu paused, and then walked in another direction.
The darkness gradually swallowed up all the scenes, and when Zhou Zijian and Chen Muquan left, a short figure suddenly appeared more than ten meters away from where they were just now, it raised its right hand, one finger was broken, and green blood oozed from the fracture.
It took its severed finger in its mouth and sucked it carefully, its two yellow-brown eyes staring at the direction Chen Mu had left, revealing a look of hatred.
But in the midst of hatred, there is a deep jealousy!
Its gaze turned, muttering something in its mouth, as if it was cursing Chen Mu, but it didn't dare to go to Chen Mu's side after all.
After a while, it turned its head unwillingly and bounced in the direction that Zhou Zijian had left.
After a few steps, its figure gradually became transparent, and then disappeared completely.
At this time, Zhou Zijian's hand was still holding the finger that was cut off by Chen Mu, and the sharp nails were almost piercing into his flesh, but he didn't realize it.
"The owner...... Ouyang Hu ......"
Zhou Zijian shouted a few times, and suddenly a gust of wind blew, blowing the blades of grass.
He suddenly felt a chill and subconsciously closed his mouth, realizing that there was no difference between continuing to shout and looking for death in this environment, he took out his flashlight and walked forward cautiously.
It was already completely dark all around. The glow of the flashlight is particularly eye-catching!
