Chapter 67: The Boss Returns

I could hear the voice approaching us, and it was fast. &1t;/p>

Lantern Xiao and I glanced at each other, so the two of us hid in the branches and leaves on the side. The rustling sound was getting closer and closer, and my heart was lifted at once. &1t;/p>

I stared intently at the branch diagonally above, and the hand holding the short knife began to sweat. Suddenly, a dark shadow came out of it, and I was too nervous to see it clearly, so I raised my hand and stabbed it. &1t;/p>

Unexpectedly, I actually pierced the air this time, and at the same time, I felt my wrist being grabbed at once. My wrist was twisted outwards so hard that I immediately screamed in pain, and the short knife in my hand almost fell off. &1t;/p>

As soon as Lantern Xiao saw that I was restrained, he raised his gun and was about to fight, but as soon as he raised his head, he was stunned, "I'll go, why are you?" ”&1t;/p>

The dark shadow was also a little surprised, and said, "Why are you here?" ”&1t;/p>

This voice sounded familiar, and when I looked up, it turned out to be Wenmo. &1t;/p>

At this point, I couldn't be surprised, because my wrist was still grabbed by him, and I raised my hand and punched him in the shoulder, "Ah!! Hurry up and let go!! ”&1t;/p>

Wenmo let me go, and continued: "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you. ”&1t;/p>

Lan Xiao put the gun into his waist, "I said boss, where have you been?" I'm telling you, you'll barely see us. ”&1t;/p>

At this time, Anador also came over, and we found a place to stay, so we told him about Wenmo's afterlife from beginning to end. &1t;/p>

Wen Mo couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen, it seems that this place is much more complicated than we imagined." ”&1t;/p>

I looked at Wenmo, "Wenmo, what did you do just now?" We're here too? ”&1t;/p>

Wenmo told us that he had just chased the figure that had attacked us over the cliff, but that they hadn't gone straight through the swamp, but had run to the left for a while. Wenmo's description reminds me of the arrow mark carved on the trunk of the tree, could it be that we really chose the wrong route at that time. &1t;/p>

So I asked Wenmo, "Did you encounter any dangers when you were walking through the swamp?" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo immediately shook his head, "No, it was generally smooth, I followed that figure all the time, and when I reached the jungle at the end of the swamp, I lost his trace." ”&1t;/p>

After listening to Wen Mo's story, Lantern Xiao said with some surprise: "Boss, is this person very powerful, he can't even catch up with you?!" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo nodded and said, "However, I also have a problem, this person is very familiar with the environment here, and he can find the most suitable route, which saves a lot of time." ”&1t;/p>

"This," Wen Mo's words surprised me a little, "is there still people living here?" ”&1t;/p>

The Lantern Festival God said mysteriously: "Is it possible that those ancient ancestors still have descendants left here?" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo shook his head, "It's unlikely, but someone arrived here before us, that's for sure." ”&1t;/p>

Anaduo asked with some hesitation, "Could that person be Zhuo Qiuye?" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo immediately shook his head, "No, I can see his figure." ”&1t;/p>

Hearing Wen Mo say this, Anado's eyes were instantly a little disappointed. &1t;/p>

I then asked Xiang Wenmo, "Boss, how did you find this position again?" ”&1t;/p>

Wenmo said: "I heard gunshots, so I came over to take a look." Another very important reason is that I saw cigarette letters. ”&1t;/p>

"Cigarette letters?" My eyes widened, "Boss, you also saw that cigarette letter?" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo nodded, and Anaduo on the side immediately pounced on him and asked, "Then tell me, is Qiu really in danger?" ”&1t;/p>

Wenmo, who is usually not afraid of heaven and earth, I thought he had reached the realm where Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, and his face did not change, but I didn't expect that as soon as Anador pounced, Wenmo actually dodged back in a little panic, I suddenly felt funny in my heart, Wenmo, who is usually almost omnipotent, was forced to retreat by a woman. &1t;/p>

I hugged Anadot, "Sister, don't worry, Wenmo can't explain this kind of thing clearly." ”&1t;/p>

Anador still looked at Wen Mo with some expectant eyes, "You all call him the boss, and I can see that he is much stronger than you, maybe he can see a different meaning." ”&1t;/p>

Anadot said this, which made me and Lantern Xiao feel a little shameless. &1t;/p>

Lantern Xiao said with an embarrassed expression: "Sister, don't say that, the boss is not a fairy, he can't know everything!" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo thought for a moment, then looked at me and said, "Your second uncle shouldn't be in any danger for the time being. He had been preparing for this for many years, and it shouldn't be so easy to break. Still, we'd better join him as soon as possible. ”&1t;/p>

I asked Wenmo, "Where should we go next?" ”&1t;/p>

Wen Mo groaned slightly, but shook his head and did not speak. Seeing him like this, we didn't continue to ask, even if Wenmo didn't speak, now that he is here, we will be relieved, we will follow him wherever he goes, just do it. &1t;/p>

After that, we each found a place to rest, and Lantern finally ate this time, and I was a little trembling when I watched his hands holding bread excitedly. Looking at his impatient look reminded me of the drug addicts I watched on TV. &1t;/p>

The Lantern Festival meal was devoured, choking and rolling his eyes, I was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to come up in one breath and die. I was relieved to see that he was full and rested against the tree with his eyes closed. Everyone is resting, but I'm a little unsteady, not for anything else, I'm just a little worried about Wenmo, because with him, many things will be much easier, and we can also take a lot of detours. &1t;/p>

And what I'm worried about is that if I fall asleep and open my eyes, maybe Wenmo is missing again, I don't know why, I just suddenly had such an idea. Because of this, I don't dare to fall asleep, even if I close my eyes and rest, I still open my eyes occasionally to look. &1t;/p>

However, I did feel very tired from the tossing and turning with the giant blind worm just now. After a while, I just felt my eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and gradually I didn't know anything. I don't know how long I slept, I woke up suddenly, I don't know when I fell asleep, I quickly opened my eyes and saw that Wen Mo's place just now was empty! &1t;/p>

I sat up and looked around, and Wenmo was really gone. I couldn't help but curse in my heart, this guy really left silently! &1t;/p>

I got up angrily and stood on the branch, and looked carefully, but there was no trace of Wenmo. Wenmo always gives me such a strange feeling, he is like a backbone, but this backbone is not so solid, sometimes I can't count on it, but at some critical moments, he is the key to our lives. This is really a contradictory feeling, but I suddenly feel that I am very unreasonable, why should Wenmo protect our safety? Is it just because he's better than us? In all fairness, Wenmo has done far more for us than we have done for him! &1t;/p>

It is the love of people to help us, it is the duty not to help, the greed of human nature will always take the contribution of others for granted, especially when others take the initiative to take it for granted. &1t;/p>

Thinking of this, my heart gradually calmed down, and the resentment just now disappeared. And my emotions about Wenmo's departure have changed from resentment to worry, and I think what I should do is to worry about his safety, instead of accusing him of not staying to protect us! &1t;/p>

It was already dawn and the sun had risen, and I was lying on my stomach on the thick branches of the trees, looking out into the swamp below. The knee-deep water below the trees is so clear that you can clearly see the roots and grass inside, and sometimes small fish and other aquatic creatures swim by. &1t;/p>

I turned my head again to look at the low swamp I had passed last night. At this time, the bright sun shines on it, and several birds are foraging on the surface of the swamp water. I can't help but think of two lines of Zhu Xi's poems, "Shengri seeks the waterfront of Fangsi, and the boundless scenery is new for a while." "It's just that this is not the Surabaya coast, this is a swamp. If you just saw the "new scene" here at this time, who would have thought that this place was like a hellish scene last night. &1t;/p>

I looked around, but I still didn't see Wenmo. And my actions woke up Lantern Festival and Anaduo on the side. Lantern Xiao rubbed her eyes, looked at me lying on the branch and looked down, was stunned, and asked, "Zhuo Ran, who are you?" What about morning exercises? ”&1t;/p>

"Train your uncle!" I ignored him, but looked up at the branches above and said, "Wenmo doesn't know where to go, I'm looking for him." ”&1t;/p>

"The Boss is gone again?" Lantern Xiao exclaimed, "I thought that this safety was guaranteed." ”&1t;/p>

I turned to look at Lantern Xiao and said, "Wenmo is not our bodyguard, what obligation does he have to protect us?" ”&1t;/p>

Lantern Xiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "It makes sense." ”&1t;/p>

Narrator: "But we're a team. ”&1t;/p>

I stepped on the dense staircase-like branches, and while slowly climbing up, I said without looking back: "Since we are a team, we also have the obligation to protect Wenmo." "I wanted to nag a few more words, but I still kept my mouth shut, what qualifications do I have to say about others, when I was missing just now, the first thing I thought of was not worried about whether he would have an accident, but resentment for why he didn't stay to help us. It's too much! &1t;/p>

Lantern Xiao asked in the back, "Hey, where are you going?" ”&1t;/p>

I said, "I'll go to a higher position and see if I can find where Wenmo went." ”&1t;/p>

Hearing me say this, Anado and Lantern Xiao both stood up, "Let's go together." ”&1t;/p>

I was just about to respond, when suddenly the branches above shook, and a person jumped down from it, it was Wenmo. &1t;/p>

&1t;/p>
