In the small woods, when the night got late, only the shadows of the trees could be seen. The three of them gathered around the fire, waiting for Yong'an to come back.
In a place where they could not see, a group of people had already withdrawn secretly, and not long after, they seemed to have changed their plan and lurked back.
The order from above is to leave no one alive. The three most important people are now in this small forest. If nothing happens, they can immediately understand these three people as long as they take action. One of the men in black is waiting.
The leader sent a signal, and the others took action together. After waiting for a long time, the signal that should have been sent could not be heard.
He moved his head slightly and looked around.
"Crack." A very soft sound came from not far away from him and passed into his ears, accompanied by a shallow muffled hum, as if something was gently placed in the grass.
In the dark night, the man was confused, but he did not dare to ask loudly for fear of startling the three people surrounding the fire not far away.
A drop of sweat slowly slid down his forehead.
After waiting for a while, the man finally couldn't hold it back anymore. He always felt that in the deep woods, besides the target three and their group, there was another unpredictable existence. He slowly straightened up,
Using the darkness of the night, I secretly moved towards the direction of the leader in my memory.
Stumbling under his feet, the man froze immediately. He lowered his head and looked over, and the person who tripped him was another man wearing the same black clothes.
Before the man could react, he heard a chuckle in his ear, which seemed to have a hint of malice. A cold female voice whispered in his ear: "You can't wait any longer, so you can send it to your door?"
The sound almost frightened the man out of his wits. He shouted suddenly, drew out his big knife and slashed around. He didn't see anyone, he only felt a cold wind blowing straight towards his neck.
Then it felt like a cold snake was wrapped around his neck, and the power gradually grew stronger.
After a while, the man stopped making any movement.
Hua Xiaogu and the others were already a little nervous, but they just comforted each other and waited for Yong'an's return. But they didn't want to suddenly hear a frightened exclamation not far away...
Tian Lanqing immediately stood up, protected Hua Xiaogu behind him, and looked around alertly. Hua Xiaogu's heart also skipped a beat, and he quickly reached out and pulled out a piece of firewood from the fire, holding it up and shining it in all directions.
The woods were deep, and it seemed that the sound came out of thin air and suddenly disappeared. The night was still silent and lifeless.
Hua Xiaogu swallowed his saliva and asked loudly: "Who!"
Only the sound of a group of birds that were frightened by her and flew up from the forest with flapping wings responded to her, and there was no sound at all.
Mo Laoqi turned pale with fright. He also stood up tremblingly: "How about... let's go over there first."
Hua Xiaogu shook his head: "It's best for us to stay here. It's dark and no one knows the way. If we go astray, it will delay Yong'an from coming to us."
Mo Laoqi also nodded, but still felt scared: "Just now... what was that sound..."
Tian Lanqing took a breath, forced a smile and comforted: "I can't tell what kind of animal made the noise. We were a little too nervous, so we heard something wrong."
Hua Xiaogu threw the torch in his hand back into the fire and squatted back: "That's right... It's useless for us to think about it now, we can only wait."
