The two of them didn't dare to move for a while, holding the knife tightly, and they were in a stalemate for a long time, and no sound sounded.

"Again...... Looking for it? Cheng Ruxue asked, her voice subconsciously lowered a lot.

Zheng Xiaofeng agreed, and the two of them began to continue walking around with small steps, this time they didn't dare to explore separately, but gathered together, so as not to have an accident, but after looking for a long time, no footprints appeared, and there was only the constant sound of wind in the woods.

This caused a lot of headaches for the two of them, and they didn't know what to do next, because the situation happened so suddenly that they were completely sleepy.

"Dong is so lacking that since they have passed here, why can't they even find their footprints?" Cheng Ruxue asked.

Zheng Xiaofeng grabbed his hair, noncommittal, and said, "Maybe it snowed heavily before, or maybe it was ...... Something has erased the traces......"

Of course, the two of them hope that it is the former possibility, but whether it is the former or the latter, it is unlikely that they want to rely on their footprints to meet Dong Quede and others. I'm afraid there's only one way to do it, and that's to find out if there are any traces of any other arbitrary spells.

The two of them then returned their attention to the trunk of the tree, maybe there would be traces of the next lightning strike, then they would be able to know the direction in which Dong Quede and the others left. It's a pity that after looking at it for a long time, every tree around them has been searched by the two of them, and there is no more harvest.

In other words, after so long, the only thing they got was that charred bark.

The two of them had no choice but to return to the trunk, speechless for a moment, their minds racing to find out what to do next.

There is no clue, no hint, which means that there is no idea, although Cheng Ruxue is very smart, she is not a creator out of thin air, but needs a chain of thinking that can be grasped. Pick a random direction to go down and pin your hopes on hitting the luck? That's not their usual style.

After a long time, Zheng Xiaofeng slammed the trunk of the tree, shaking off all the burnt bark to vent the anger in his heart.

"Huh?"

It was originally an unintentional move, but the moment the fist fell, Zheng Xiaofeng involuntarily let out a sound, his brows furrowed, as if something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Ruxue saw Zheng Xiaofeng's gaze locked on the trunk of the tree, and asked puzzledly.

Zheng Xiaofeng didn't answer immediately, but raised his hand and slapped the tree trunk twice, and then a little excitement appeared in his eyes.

"Listen!" Zheng Xiaofeng said, and then he slapped it hard, only to hear an ethereal sound from the trunk, Cheng Ruxue also immediately understood, and said in surprise: "It's empty?!" ”

Zheng Xiaofeng nodded, and at the same time began to grope carefully around the trunk of the tree, Cheng Ruxue asked him what he was doing, Zheng Xiaofeng said: "I'll see if I can open it and see what's going on inside." ”

Cheng Ruxue understood, and the two of them observed carefully together, and soon Zheng Xiaofeng found something, snapped his fingers and said, "This is it!" ”

It was a tiny, barely visible crevice, and if it wasn't specifically searched, everyone would think it was just a stripe on the trunk of a tree. The two men stretched out their knives, embedded the tip of the knife in the gap, and warped it hard, and sure enough, a whole piece of bark was like a wooden door, and it squeaked open.

Although they were mentally prepared, the two of them were still surprised, there was actually a very large space hidden in the trunk, and there was no problem for people to walk in.

It was pitch black, so Cheng Ruxue brought the stove over, and the two of them probed in by the firelight. The two of them were even more shocked, it was decent, there were a lot of various furniture and things made of wood, there were tables, stools, and bed, this was obviously a tree house that could be inhabited?!

"I'm through-" Zheng Xiaofeng sighed, this is undoubtedly a major discovery, and he didn't expect it in advance.

And this is not the end, Cheng Ruxue suddenly screamed again, pointed to the wall at the corner, and said in shock: "Look there!" ”

Zheng Xiaofeng looked in the direction of Cheng Ruxue's finger, and his chin fell off.

I saw that there were four black backpacks neatly placed there, and the style was exactly the same as the one they were holding now.

"It's Dong who lacks their equipment!" Zheng Xiaofeng shouted.

The two of them hurriedly walked over, opened their backpacks, and saw that there were stoves, fuel, knives, and medicines all available, and there was nothing missing at all.

"The important stuff is here, and theoretically they shouldn't go far." Cheng is like a snow road.

Zheng Xiaofeng's face was solemn and said, "Unless...... Something forced them to go far. ”

The two of them took a closer look at other places, and found nothing else, this tree house is quite spacious, and there are still more than ten square meters.

If there is a treehouse, it means that someone has lived here for a long time, so does this mean that there is really a possibility that there was an ancient civilization here?

To confirm this, the two men walked out of the treehouse again and walked to the other large trees with thick branches around them.

Zheng Xiaofeng patted this and that, and found that without exception, it was all empty.

This made the two of them interested, and they were ready to open all these treehouses to take a look, and they could find other things if they were interested, but where were the doors of these wooden houses, and the two of them searched for a long time and didn't find them, Zheng Xiaofeng said: "Maybe no one has opened it for too long, and it has grown back into one." ”

Cheng Ruxue said: "It seems that it can only be pried open." ”

This was the only way, and the two men began to chop the bark little by little with a knife, but after cutting for a while, they found that it was quite a brainless act, so they immediately decided to give up.

"That door can be opened, it should be because Dong Que and they used spells, our two small broken knives are estimated to be cut until the Year of the Monkey." Zheng Xiaofeng said.

Cheng Ruxue gasped twice and nodded in agreement: "But we can already confirm that there are indeed a large number of traces of human existence here, and the existence of ancient civilization is basically a sure thing." ”

It's just that this is confirmed, and it's not too good news, although it is a place to find a place to step on the iron shoes, and the willows and flowers are bright and bright, but at the same time, it also means that it is not surprising what kind of strange events will happen next.

In every ancient civilization I have been to in the past, none of the things in it are normal, what Potuo, blood skeletons, sand paralysis, giants, birdmen, including hair monsters, shadow abyss or something, one is more outrageous than the other, as the saying goes, the root source of all fear is lack of firepower, and now the two of them are single-handed, they don't even have a gun, so it's strange if they don't feel scared.

"What are we going to do next?" After slowing down for a while, Cheng Ruxue asked.

Decision-making and other things, between the two of them, they are still more inclined to let Zheng Xiaofeng do it.

Zheng Xiaofeng thought about it carefully and said: "Wait, we don't know the direction they left now, and there is a high probability that taking the initiative to find them is the opposite of the opposite, if they are okay, they will come back here to get the equipment anyway." ”

Cheng Ruxue did not object, and the two of them extinguished the fire outside and returned to the tree house.

I'll have to spend the night here tonight.

Considering the laughter of children and the string of baby-like footprints, it may not be safe here, the two of them closed the wooden door, and Zheng Xiaofeng moved a table against the door as insurance.

"If you're tired, go to sleep first, I'll watch." Zheng Xiaofeng said.

Cheng Ruxue looked at the bed and then at the door, to be honest, she really wanted to accompany Zheng Xiaofeng, but her body was indeed a little unbearable, no matter how she said she was also a girl, although her physical fitness was better than that of most girls, but it must not be comparable to Zheng Xiaofeng, it was okay not to see the bed, this time I saw it, and I wanted to yawn uncontrollably.

"That'...... Did I sleep first? Cheng Ruxue hesitated for a while, and then said, "Call me when you're tired, at any time." ”

Zheng Xiaofeng said "um", signaling that he would not be reluctant, and Cheng Ruxue had no choice but to lie down on the bed.

After all, now is not the time to be polite, if you have to hold out until you encounter danger and your physical strength can't keep up, then you will really drag your feet.

Zheng Xiaofeng leaned against the door, sat down, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this time, he can justifiably find an excuse for his fear, the fear of falling asleep, since he doesn't have to sleep, he naturally won't worry about having that nightmare again.

I don't know where Bai Qianyu is now and how it is, Zheng Xiaofeng realized that he had never been so worried about him as he was now.

He is obviously such a skilled person, as long as he is careful enough, even if he occasionally encounters an opponent who is stronger than himself, he can completely rely on dazzling magic to escape, it can be said that it is almost impossible for anyone or anything to kill him, but Zheng Xiaofeng is uncontrollably worried, and the premonition that things in dreams will become reality is gradually intensifying.

There is also Xu Qingyun, Zheng Xiaofeng regrets it a little now, why didn't he borrow Zhao Wanbi's phone when he hadn't left yet, he must have Xu Qingyun's direct contact information, even if he can't go to meet him, it's always okay to make a phone call to ask about the current situation. probably thought in my heart at that time, people like Xu Qingyun don't need other people's flesh and cold to ask for warmth, and he doesn't like this, so he has no contact.

These people must be good......

escaped the nightmare in his sleep, but the nightmare in reality gradually spread, and he was about to swallow Zheng Xiaofeng completely.

Thinking about it, Zheng Xiaofeng couldn't help but sigh.

More than an hour passed, Dong Quede and the others did not appear, and Cheng Ruxue also tossed and turned, feeling that she was not really asleep at all.

Worse, however, there is more than one nightmare in reality.

Just as Zheng Xiaofeng was about to stand up and prepare to move his stiff muscles, there was a sudden noise outside the door.

"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee...... Hahaha......"

"Grass!" Zheng Xiaofeng scolded secretly, his body froze in an instant, Cheng Ruxue sat up suddenly, and looked at Zheng Xiaofeng with wide eyes.

She didn't fall asleep.

The sound was quite sudden, without the slightest warning, it sounded exactly like the child's laughter a few hours ago, but this time they heard it more clearly, and the feeling was coming from their ears, maybe the owner of the voice was outside the door at the moment, and it wouldn't be more than five meters away at most!

There is no doubt that something is coming!

"Hee-hee-hee-hee...... Hahaha......"

There was another sinister laugh, and the temperature seemed to drop several degrees in an instant, causing goosebumps on both of their backs. I don't know how the voice sounds, but people don't feel happy when they listen to it, but there is an inexplicable resentment and poison mixed with it.

Although there was a little psychological construction in advance, neither of them expected the change to come so quickly, and the idiom of being caught off guard is very suitable to describe them at this moment.

Cheng Ruxue didn't dare to move, she didn't even dare to get out of bed, and the two of them became like sculptures. No one spoke, only to wait and see how things changed.

"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"

"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"

"Hahahahaha......"

This time the sound lasted for a long time, several minutes, and there was no intention of stopping, and the two men soon discovered a more serious problem, that is, the sound seemed to be getting more and more numerous and noisy, as if dozens of people were laughing at one time.

"Oops!" Zheng Xiaofeng and Cheng Ruxue glanced at each other, their faces were extremely ugly, cold sweat came down, and they said in their hearts, "Could it be that this is a break into the kindergarten?" ”

The two of them couldn't imagine what the situation was like outside the treehouse now, maybe there was a large group of children grinning around the tree, and the appearance of those children was not normal children at all, the kind of face full of yin in the horror movie was the only thing they could imagine.

Ten minutes passed, and the laughter still did not stop, and there was no break of even half a second in between, as if there was no need to ventilate, which strengthened the idea of the two people, and it was absolutely impossible for the outside to be alive.

Just then, the situation changed again, and the laughter suddenly disappeared, replaced by a cacophony of "creaking", as if something was violently scratching at the bark.

"Good fellows." Zheng Xiaofeng was completely panicked at this time, the things outside didn't plan to dig up the wall and break in directly, right? Cheng Ruxue couldn't sit still, got up softly, and held the knife in her hand.

But soon, the "squeak" also stopped, and after five seconds of silence, there was another cry outside.

"Woo woo woo woo ......"

At first there was a voice, then two, then more and more, too many to count, the crying was a miserable, although it was not heartbreaking, but it was very heavy and deep, it seemed to be able to hit people's hearts, and a strong sense of depression enveloped the hearts of two people, and it was so overwhelming that people couldn't breathe.

"Your uncle, it's endless......" Zheng Xiaofeng scolded secretly, time is like years, this situation is simply too torturous.

But in the next second, Zheng Xiaofeng regretted his idea.

The things outside seemed to understand Zheng Xiaofeng's heart, stopped crying, and replaced it with ......

"Bang!"

There was an extremely abrupt loud bang, the wooden door shook violently, and the table blocking the door moved several centimeters with a "creak", damn, it seems that something is about to rush in!

"Fuck you, uncle!" Zheng Xiaofeng couldn't hold back at all, scolded out, and hurriedly rushed up and pressed against the wooden door with his body, and with another "bang", the wooden door was hit again, and the force was very strong, almost knocking Zheng Xiaofeng open completely.

"Come and help!" Zheng Xiaofeng gritted his teeth and shouted, where did Cheng Ruxue use him to remind him, he had already rushed over.

The two of them pushed up all the strength of their bodies, and because the force was too strong, the muscles were swollen and painful for a while, "Bang! Bang! Bang! Three times in a row, the force was greater than the other, and the things outside were hitting each other, and at the same time, they let out a "hee-hee-ha" smirk.

The door has been knocked open by a small crack, a few centimeters wide, if it is a paper person, it can already come in, Zheng Xiaofeng made a sound like constipation, his face was red, and he said: "The heroes outside!" It's rude to trespass into a private house! Can we have something to say! We'll come out for you when it's dawn! If there is anything to say, let's talk calmly! ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Xiaofeng felt that something was wrong, and he broke into the house without permission, and what he said might be the two of them.

Depend on! Could this treehouse be the home of those things out there?! That's a self-defeating one.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Just when the two of them were about to be unable to withstand it, the impact suddenly stopped by itself, and the two people closed the door again because of inertia, and looked at each other in confusion for a long time, and they didn't react.

"That's ...... Done? Did they really listen to me? Zheng Xiaofeng said almost sluggishly, and his breath couldn't keep up.

Cheng Ruxue was also out of breath, and finally swallowed a mouthful of saliva, slowed down, and the two of them didn't dare to completely unload their forces casually, and the ghost knew if they would suddenly come again.

The two of them just leaned against the door, and Cheng Ruxue said, "I'm afraid they didn't leave, but waited outside to lure us out." ”

Zheng Xiaofeng nodded again and again, obviously this was a more reasonable guess.
