Looking carefully, there is actually no change in the surrounding environment. After all, they are all big trees. Even Bai Youyou didn't see the reason, so everyone looked at the elder in unison. Ji Ran lowered his head and pondered for a moment,
His brows furrowed slightly: "Senior, why did you say we came back again?"
The elder's face didn't look so ugly now. He tightened his thin collar and said, "Didn't Qianqian just pick up a clay stick from the ground before? Now the clay stick has appeared again..."
"This doesn't mean we came back, right?" Mo Yue smiled: "This clay stick is not necessarily the same one just now. Besides, hasn't the clay stick just now disappeared?"
The words fell,
The smile on Mo Yue's face faded. She seemed to have thought of something and glanced at Shan Shu.
she remembers,
Before Zhu Yingcang disappeared,
The mud stick splashed mud all over his face, and then Bai Youyou realized something was wrong, and the mud stick disappeared out of thin air...
Think of it this way.
This mud stick seems to be related to Zhu Yingcang's disappearance?
Now that the clay stick appears again, does it mean that someone in their team will go missing again?
Mo Yue licked her back molars with her tongue. The other players had obviously thought of this, and their expressions suddenly became subtle. They looked at the elder, and then at Jiang Qian, who was pale and about to cry.
If the disappearance is related to mud spots,
If nothing else goes wrong, Jiang Qian should be missing next.
In this case, the only four inner ghosts left are Yuan Lao, Lao You, Tuantuan, and Bai Youyou.
The players suspected Bai Youyou, and their eyes swept over Bai Youyou without leaving any trace. Bai Youyou felt that something was wrong with the reaction of the elder. Previously, the suspicion of the elder in her heart was very small, but now...
The senator was frightened like this because of a clay stick.
Although this does not mean that he is a traitor, the elder must know something.
Maybe he knows more than Hezhi does.
It's also possible that he was trying to make things up. Maybe there was nothing wrong with the clay stick itself, but he just pushed it out to distract everyone.
As for Jiang Qian's reaction...she herself was suspicious, and she was indeed frightened by the disappearance of the clay stick before. Now her posturing can be justified.
Bai Youyou thought like this, and then he tried to say: "But I have never seen this kind of mud stick in other parts of the forest, and you can see that the mud spots on this stick are very thin.
It looks thin, as if it has just been taken out of water-covered soil."
"We have been walking for so long, but there seems to be no place like this in the forest."
As she spoke, she glanced at the senator and saw that the panic in his eyes was even worse, as if it was about to overflow. Even the hands on his sides began to tremble. Sensing Bai Youyou's gaze, he raised his eyes.
He looked towards Bai Youyou and said, "Maybe, maybe I'm wrong. I don't know for sure."
"But, no matter what, everyone should be careful next time."
"There's already something wrong with the sudden freezing cold in this forest."
Bai Youyou raised his eyebrows.
The elder seemed to have no flaws.
But the biggest flaw is that there are no flaws.
Elder…
The suspicion is really high.
Bai Youyou pursed her lips. Now, she was 80% sure that the next person in trouble would not be a senior.
The elders had said so, and the temperature was really low at the moment, so they no longer bothered about the clay stick. Jiang Qian also kicked the clay stick aside as if to vent his anger under the comfort of everyone, and the group continued
Moving forward, there was no accident this time, and soon a cave appeared in everyone's sight.
This cave doesn't look big,
Hidden among the dense bushes, there is an opening in the middle that can only allow one person to pass through, and it looks very desolate.
Even so, when He Zhi said he could rest ahead, everyone present, including Bai Youyou, was shocked.
The environment here is really too harsh, like a huge ice cellar. It's so cold that people's limbs start to feel numb. However, other NPCs and players cannot wear thicker clothes.
If I had known at that time, I should have acted alone, put on the invisibility cloak and eaten whatever I wanted, wearing it as thickly as I wanted, not to mention how comfortable it would be.
With this idea in mind, when Bai Youyou saw the cave, she felt that her whole body was full of strength, and she quickly quickened her pace.
Naturally, the same goes for the others, who wish they could fly as fast as they could and fly directly into the cave.
On the other hand, Hezhi was as indifferent as ever. He picked up a few stones on the ground, and when he came to the cave, he threw the stones directly into the cave.
Casting stones to ask for directions,
All in all, I wanted to see if there were any wild animals in the cave.
He Yi threw several stones in succession. The stones scraped against the bushes and fell into the cave with a thud. Other than that, there was no other movement.
Seeing this,
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at first,
Then a stronger uneasiness rose from the bottom of my heart.
this forest,
Apart from flowers, plants and trees, it seems like they are the only ones alive...
However, there was no time to think so much at this time. As a gust of cold wind blew by, everyone shivered from the cold and couldn't wait to get into the cave.
The cave is very dark.
The dust is very heavy.
As soon as they entered the cave, everyone's eyes suddenly dimmed. Before they felt any warmth, they first felt the dust rushing towards their faces, straight into their mouth and nose. The veteran Jiang Qian was caught off guard and choked.
, coughed in panic, while Bai Youyou walked at the back, taking advantage of the black space to take out a mask and put it on his face. Fortunately, he didn't inhale too much dust.
At this time, a player took out a flashlight and used it to shine in the cave. Bai Youyou also used the light to basically see what the cave looked like.
It's about as high as a floor.
It was forty or fifty square meters, with a small dry pool in the middle. The stone walls on both sides were polished smooth and very clean, but in the innermost place, there were two bright red bloody handprints. You could tell at a glance that someone was being harmed.
At the same time, others also saw the two bloody handprints, and their eyes suddenly widened.
"that is…"
"Don't talk so much nonsense."
At this time, the elder finally calmed down. He coughed twice, took out a bottle of water from his backpack, poured it directly on the ground, and then breathed out gently: "Clean the cave first, this dust is too dusty."
It's heavy."
"Not even a spider."
Ji Ran glanced at Song Wu.
Song Wu shrugged: "So maybe this is really a forest of death. I don't know for sure."
I don’t know if it was because he had discovered the creek before, but the elder didn’t feel bad about using the water at this moment. He donated all the two bottles of water in his backpack. Jiang Qian also silently took out a bottle of water and sprinkled it in the cave.
In every corner of the room, other players were silently cleaning their resting places.
"Do you still have a mask?"
Just when Bai Youyou opened her backpack to see what supplies were inside, Lao You's voice suddenly came to her ears. She turned her head and looked towards Lao You, and saw Lao You hugging Tuan Tuan and a pair of weathered eyes.
