The dark woodland is still as quiet as ever, with the occasional fragmented light spotting down, and under the shade of the trees, it only adds a slight eerie taste.

"Sand ...... Sand...... Sand ......"

Suddenly, in a corner of the forest, a dilapidated bush began to sift and shake for no reason, and a series of small and noisy sounds broke the silence of the forest again.

After a while, a thief-eyed, incomparably obscene head slowly poked out of the bushes......

His eyes were full of defensiveness, and at the same time revealed endless cunning, turning from time to time, constantly spying on the movements around him. And from his low posture, it was enough to feel Dao's deep fear and defense.

However, after a long time, there was no movement in this forest except for the occasional rustle of the wind blowing the leaves......

"Get out, you ......"

A voice that was trying to suppress itself sounded from behind the head. Then, with only a scream of "ah", a lean man flew out of the bushes as if he had been hit by a huge force!

Why use the word "again"?

It's such a familiar scene, and it has been played out too many times in this forest! And this man who flew straight out was not the time to move?

Before he could land for long, another violent noise sounded, and a strong man like an iron tower hurriedly followed out.

At this time, he was undoubtedly extremely embarrassed.

After a long time of tossing, the messy long hair has long been as messy as dry grass, and there are scattered scattered fallen leaves and dead branches on it as embellishments, and the original neat armor is already scattered at this time!

While this person drilled out, he couldn't stop scolding and scolding, "You cowardly and mouse-like killer, it's just ......"

For a while, he didn't seem to think of any words to use to describe it, so he rolled his eyes and continued to mutter, "I can't even do this little thing, what use do I want you!" ”

Time's mouth opened and closed, as if trying to refute something. But when he saw the man who seemed to be still angry, he couldn't help but feel a little timid in his heart, and he couldn't say anything: no matter what he said, it was absolutely impossible for the strong man to listen to it at this time, so it was better not to say it.

He could only lick a flattering expression and continue to remain silent, anyway...... He's used to it, too!

After a while, the remaining three people also emerged from the bushes one after another.

Gao Yu looked around, shook off some fragments of leaves on his body, and asked, "So it seems that this place is still safe?" ”

His mood was obviously much better than before, and faintly, there seemed to be a little inexplicable excitement.

"Hmmm......"

Lin Chong, who was standing beside Gao Yu, groaned slightly, "If you want to say that this way has come, it has been a lot smoother." ”

The atmosphere that was originally slightly tense began to ease with the decision of the two of them......

Even Feng Shiyan could clearly feel that with the gradual deepening, everyone's originally heavy mood slowly began to become clearer.

And the main reason: in the past half a day, everyone has not even encountered a single attack, compared to the previous day, this is almost unimaginable. Although this is the case, there may be a certain amount of chance.

Of course, if you exclude this contingency. To a certain extent, everyone began to become more and more sure of the possibility of Feng Shiyan's speculation.

……

At this time, Feng Shiyan was still constantly exploring what was going on......

He didn't know what the point of doing this was, maybe just to make himself feel more at ease, after all, the shadow of death had not yet lifted over their heads......

Although at this time, the possibility of his previous inferences seemed to be slowly gaining the upper hand, he did not dare to rashly rule out the factor of luck.

If I was lucky, I happened to avoid all the arrests. Then it may be true that as Gao Yu deduced, they should not be far from the enemy's lair now.

With the center as the radius, the closer to the core area, the most frequent the activity trajectory of those bandits, then, there is a high probability that traces of their activities can still be found around.

At this time, Lin Chong was doing the same thing as Feng Shiyan.

In addition to the superb martial arts, the only thing left to him after a long career in the army was the habit of staying vigilant at all times.

After a long time, the two stopped with a sense of relief, looked at each other, and nodded.

"Here...... Indeed, there was no trace of the activities of the bandits. ”

After hurriedly informing everyone of the results of the investigation, Lin Chong took his spear and sat down on the spot. Obviously, along the way, he was always vigilant, and even he felt extremely tired.

Hearing Lin Chong's decision, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At the very least, they should be safe at this time.

Looking at the crooked crowd, Feng Shiyan was a little skeptical that he was too sensitive. I always feel as if something has been overlooked......

"What is it?" Feng Shiyan fell into deep thought.

"But...... It seems that this woodland is starting to become more and more dilapidated......" Feng Shiyan muttered.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Feng Shiyan's words made the person who had just breathed a sigh of relief feel high again...... Gao Yu hurriedly asked, "Feng ...... Master Feng, what do you mean by that? ”

Shocked, he even said something a little stumbling.

"I'm not sure if this is my delusion...... Feng Shiyan frowned: "Don't you think that the trees here are much sparser than when we first set off?" ”

Earlier it was said to be barren, now it is said to be sparse, but the core meaning is only one, and the surrounding environment has changed again!

The crowd looked around in some disbelief. Lu Erfeng muttered: "It doesn't seem to have changed much......"

"There's a change!" Lin Chong suddenly spoke: "It's just not obvious!" ”

"Coupled with our attention, to put it bluntly, we have been on guard against those bandits, so we are careful everywhere and don't notice the changes in the surrounding environment, which is not surprising at all."

Feng Shiyan nodded: "You can think about it carefully, from the beginning to the present, you will find that this change is actually quite obvious." ”

"At the beginning, we walked in the forest, surrounded by incomparably lush trees, which could be called obscuring the sky, even at noon, when the sun was high, we could only see sporadic spots of light; Now, obviously, the surrounding trees are much more sparse to the naked eye, and it is almost impossible to block the sun......"

Gao Yu's face was grim, as if he was thinking carefully about the journey along the way: "If you think about it carefully, it is really as Master Feng said!" ”

Lu Mingfei continued: "Also, as mentioned earlier, the biggest suspicion here is that it is still the same as the previous place, this place is too quiet, there is not even a sound of living creatures, the silence is terrifying!" ”

"If you don't believe it, you might as well let Brother Shi go and see if you can hunt anything?"

Feng Shiyan looked at Shi Qian, who was hiding in the corner of the team, with a gloomy face.

Obviously, he felt that he was being used as cannon fodder by Feng Shiyan.

Looking at Shi Qian's angry eyes, Feng Shiyan hurriedly said comfortingly: "Brother Shishi doesn't need to be so worried, in fact, according to the current situation, the speculation I made before is basically quite reliable." Obviously, the bandits were consciously trying to drive us away. Therefore, the probability of an attack is not very high. ”

"Of course, it's better to be cautious or cautious. Because at this time, we have to face more than just an attack that may come at any time, and more importantly, we must be prepared for the unknown......

After listening to Feng Shiyan's words, Shi Qian's face couldn't help but improve a little.

Although it is his job to explore the way, if he is asked to be a cannon fodder for no reason, he is obviously unwilling.

Now that the reason for this has been explained clearly, at that time, the move was driven by the two winds of Nalu, and he got up and walked straight to the depths of the dense forest......

Looking at Shi Qian's departing figure, Feng Shiyan breathed a long sigh of relief and closed his tired eyes.

Next, only by patiently waiting for the time to move back can we think about what to do next.

At least now, he can't give any answers, because there are some things that even he hasn't figured out yet.
