Chapter 756: Strange Footsteps
That night, Zhan Jingyi discussed with Yan Sixia and Qiao Xueqing about being on duty all night, it turned out that Zhan Jingyi meant, he had more energy, and it was no problem to be on duty all night, but Yan Sixia resolutely disagreed.
Later, Zhan Jingyi thought about it, and agreed that he and Yan Xixia would take turns, one in the first half of the night and the other in the second half of the night, Qiao Xueqing was still young after all, it was the time to snooze, so there was no need to keep vigil, after all, he was still young, and he should have been taken care of when he went out.
As a result, Qiao Xueqing disagreed, in her opinion, although she was young, her abilities were amazing, and in a team, everyone should do their part.
At this time, it is not necessary to take into account what men and women, the elderly and children, and some are just teammates and companions.
After listening to Qiao Xueqing's opinion, he later compromised, today is Zhan Jingyi and Yan Xixia alone in the middle of the night, tomorrow it is Qiao Xueqing and Zhan Jingyi alone in the middle of the night, and the day after tomorrow is Yan Xixia and Qiao Xueqing sentry, and the three of them take turns, so that in the small team of three, there is always one person who is the most energetic that day, so as to deal with emergencies.
At the end of the discussion, the three of them quickly finished dinner, and in the evening, Zhan Jingyi paid attention to it when he was in the middle of the night, and sure enough, as Yan Xixia said, these masters who seemed to be alone seemed to have a division of labor, and each had a night watchman.
During the day, Zhan Jingyi still wondered if there would be some real lone masters among so many people, but at this time, he found that there was no one......
It seems that the people who come here are not independent individuals, in fact, Zhan Jingyi also understands that the reincarnation sect will release several such places every year.
You must know that this way of transferring the soul, for many old people, this is no different from immortality, you must know that after people are old, few people are still healthy, and after you enjoy the glory and wealth, you will inevitably want to live a long life.
But there is no silver bullet in this world, and this human cloning technology and soul transfer of the reincarnation sect effectively solves this problem.
And the most important thing is that many of the managers of each city are old people who are no longer young, and as long as the old man's body is decaying, this technology of the reincarnation sect is very valuable.
This is also the reason why so many people come to the auction every year when the Samsara Sect holds an auction, and so many people enter this exploration of the secret realm.
Looking at it now, the people of those city-states are probably really concerned about the one condition promised by the reincarnation sect and the three places.
Immortal......
Zhan Jingyi has never thought about such a thing as immortality, and always feels that for some people, living too long may not be a good thing, if the cat is not happy, then it is also a sadness that the cat has nine lives.
In fact, Zhan Jingyi doesn't think that there is any happiness in immortality, even if those in high positions hold power in their hands, but if they live for a long time, what happiness will there be?
……
Tonight, Zhan Jingyi stayed in the first half of the night, this time, he was in front of Yan Xixia and Qiao Xueqing's tent, Yan Xixia still put the pistol in a place where she could reach it, but her breathing was more even, and she slept more steadily.
Zhan Jingyi glanced back at the sleeping Yan Sixia and Qiao Xueqing, Yan Sixia also traveled from south to north, and it was also because there was no one to rely on before, so he was so vigilant.
If you compare Yan Xixia's current state with her previous state, in fact, she may not even be able to fully trust the people in her original team, after all, when she first met her, Zhan Jingyi clearly observed that this girl had never really slept soundly.
At this moment, the young man who had asked Zhan Jingyi what he was best at got up and walked into the mountains, maybe he went to the toilet, of course, maybe he was going to do something inconvenient in front of outsiders.
Originally, Zhan Jingyi didn't put this matter at ease, after all, everyone has a bit of a secret, but not long after the young man left, Zhan Jingyi suddenly heard the sound of something trampling on rotten leaves in the mountains behind him.
But when Zhan Jingyi turned around, he didn't see anything, even if his spiritual power scanned it, he didn't find any traces, not even beasts.
Then, Zhan Jingyi counted the number of people in the camp, except for the young man, it was obvious that everyone was here, so who came from the sound just now?
He recalled many previous encounters, and such a strange beginning often indicated that this journey to the secret realm might not be so easy.
The noise outside the camp not only alarmed Zhan Jingyi, but many people who were originally sleeping suddenly opened their eyes, and every one of the people here seemed to be not simple.
Yan Xixia in the tent behind Zhan Jingyi was also awakened, she first glanced at Qiao Xueqing, who was still asleep, and then asked in a low voice, "There is an enemy attack?" ”
Zhan Jingyi shook his head and said, "It's okay, you can sleep at ease, you will be fine with me." ”
Then, Zhan Jingyi sat at the door of the tent, playing with the short knife in his hand, and after more than ten minutes, the young man returned to the camp, Zhan Jingyi looked up and asked, "Why have you been there for so long, have you urinated on your hands?" ”
Young man: "??? ”
At this time, the young man scolded in his heart, this seemingly delicate person is a psychopath!!
Next, the young man was a little annoyed: "What's so strange, haven't you ever urinated on your hands?" ”
The young man's reaction made Zhan Jingyi feel a little emotional, looking at this reaction, he wouldn't be right, originally Zhan Jingyi just wanted to test it and see what this young man was going to do.
Now it seems that it must be abnormal, but I don't know if the movement outside the camp just now is his ghost.
……
At this time, many people in the camp got out of their tents and got up to see what was happening.
Mei Yiren also walked over slowly, looking at Zhan Jingyi who was keeping vigil, because the place where the sound came out just now was closest to Zhan Jingyi, so he asked directly: "Did you find anything just now, is it someone from our camp?" ”
"No, everyone in the group was in camp except this one, and besides, the sound sounded like footsteps, but it was light, and if anyone was approaching, it would have to be a child."
Hearing Mei Yiren's words, Zhan Jingyi recalled the voice he heard and explained in detail.
The assistant beside Mei Yiren heard Zhan Jingyi's words, and got goosebumps: "Where are the children in the wilderness in the middle of the night?" ”
"I'm just making an analogy."
Zhan Jingyi looked around at everyone, and found that everyone was frowning and worried, he suddenly said: "Seeing that you are so nervous, why don't I tell everyone a joke to ease the atmosphere......"
"No, thank you, good night."
After Mei Yiren finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the tent, instead of listening to Zhan Jingyi's jokes suspiciously here, it was better to go back to sleep!
Zhan Jingyi smashed his mouth with some regret, he rarely wanted to show enthusiasm once, but he was vetoed.
Seeing that everyone had already left, at this time, Qiao Xueqing, who had been woken up, also leaned over to Zhan Jingyi with sleepy eyes and asked, "Brother Zhan Wang, was that sound just now a footstep?" ”
"It should be, let me see, it was indeed rhythmically approaching just now."
Zhan Jingyi said with certainty: "The environment here is too weird, and it's normal for there to be some strange things in the woods." In short, there is nothing wrong with being careful. ”
At this time, Yan Xixia, who was particularly bold, also walked back, just now she went to the mountains for a walk, but she didn't find a single footprint, which is very strange, even if the other party's footsteps are light, there must be some traces.
"Alright, you go to sleep."
Yan Xixia, who walked back, said to Zhan Jingyi: "It's time for me to keep vigil." Hearing Yan Xixia's words, Zhan Jingyi was not pretentious, nodded and said, "Well, call me at any time if you have something." ”
At this time, everyone seems to avoid accidents, and they don't even go to the toilet, and several people plan to hold back until dawn.
Although everyone is a master who has killed people and seen blood, in the face of such a strange existence as this secret realm, there is still a trace of fear in their hearts after all.
After Yan Xixia changed the guard, he kept sitting next to the bonfire and thinking about the problem, and he was very careful, always paying attention to the wind and grass around him, but until the sky was slightly bright, there was nothing abnormal.
"Everyone, please vote, ask for praise, ask for collection! Thanks!"
