Chapter 427 Figure
In the blood-red fog, those twisted black branches were like living creatures being pulled by invisible hands. Although there was no wind, they were wriggling eerily in the air.
But perhaps because of the spiritual spring water, the branches kept moving three feet away from everyone. Like a group of hungry beasts that were afraid of their prey, they would tentatively move forward and then withdraw as if they were electrocuted, making a "creaking" sound that made people's teeth ache.
Everyone was on edge, breathing very lightly. Even the slight sound of boots stepping on the soil seemed particularly harsh at this moment.
Suddenly, Fang Jili's voice came from behind, startling everyone: "Junior Sister Bai, look over there, there seems to be someone!"
Everyone shuddered and looked in the direction he pointed. In the depths of the surging red fog, a thin black shadow loomed, its outline as elusive as a ghost.
Bai Sinan narrowed his eyes: "It does look like a human figure."
"It's most likely the team of Tang Jiayuan and Jin Zhuliu. We don't have to care about it." Ye Minglan's voice was extremely cold, his eyes full of disgust.
"I agree! We'd better stay away from them. They are really unlucky."
Before Yan Jinan finished his words, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly pierced the sky.
An Liuyan unconsciously clutched her sleeves and asked cautiously, "Should we... go over and take a look?"
"What are you looking at? Even if those two died, it was their own fault. Do we really have to save them?" Cao Wenyu frowned and looked at her, not understanding what An Liuyan was thinking.
"Of course I didn't mean that!" An Liuyan waved her hands quickly: "They insulted Junior Sister Bai before, how could I save them? It's just... these screams must be because they encountered something unusual. Why don't we observe from a distance, so that we can be prepared in advance if we encounter it again in the future..."
"Senior Sister An, this is a good idea." Bai Sinan raised the corners of his lips: "Someone is blazing a trail for us... How can we not go and take a look?"
Everyone followed the screams to the source, only to find that the surroundings were empty. Not to mention living people, there was not even a corpse to be seen.
"This... Could it be that we have been deceived by something?" Yan Jinan's voice trembled a little.
"I can't rule out this possibility..." Bai Sinan frowned. She clearly felt the breath of a living person just now. Could it be that she made a mistake in judgment?
At this moment, Fang Jili suddenly said, "The person is not here, he is over there!"
In the direction he pointed, a figure could indeed be vaguely seen. Yan Jinan let out a long sigh, stood up and was about to move forward: "Oh, you scared me, I thought it was haunted again, but it turned out to have just run to the front..."
"do not go!"
Bai Sinan suddenly grabbed his sleeve. Yan Jinan staggered and looked back in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Bai Sinan couldn't tell the specific reason, but she could feel that the little buds were frantically trying to stop her from moving forward.
"Wait a moment." She lowered her voice.
Although Yan Jinan was confused, he still squatted back to his original position obediently. At this moment, a team of seven people led by Tang Jiayuan and Jin Zhuliu suddenly appeared in his sight.
"Damn it! Where on earth did that person go?" Jin Zhuliu gritted his teeth.
Just now they spotted a lone figure and thought it was someone from Bai Sinan's group, so they were planning to attack him. But when they were chasing him, three of their companions were missing for no apparent reason. What was even more bizarre was that they clearly heard screams, but when they got here, there was no one there.
Tang Jiayuan threw the dice and held it in his palm. His face suddenly darkened. "One person died."
"Damn it! I knew it was one of ours who died!" Jin Zhuliu punched the tree next to him: "Ye Minglan claims to be righteous, but he still killed our people anyway!"
After saying that, Bai Sinan and the others who were hiding in the dark all turned their heads to Ye Minglan. Ye Minglan was also confused. What a huge blame, just dumped on him? ?
"Oh, you are just a hypocritical hypocrite." Tang Jiayuan rolled the dice again and said coldly: "The remaining two people are not dead yet, go find them first."
"That, that... Young Master Tang..." Someone in the team suddenly pointed forward: "There seems to be someone over there..."
