Seeing the empty tent, Mo Qing and Jiang Ke looked at each other.
"There were no signs of a struggle."
Jiang Ke looked around with his flashlight and frowned involuntarily.
"You walked by yourself?" Mo Qing came to a pile of grass and saw messy footprints, but a little further away, there were gravels by the river, and no traces could be seen.
She immediately denied her guess: "With such a thick fog, even if they want to move around, they should tell us."
"Their personal belongings are all there, and there are no traces of biological invasion." After checking, Jiang Ke came over, "Youchi Shi is here. If there is danger, there is no way to fight back. We can also hear the noise caused by it.
.The current situation is not normal. I suggest not to act rashly until the fog clears."
If there is danger, they will definitely know it.
But it is impossible to say that Song Yiyuan left on his own in Chi Shi.
Mo Qing thought for a while and said, "Go and ask first?"
She glanced in a certain direction.
She was referring to the second group of people who were staring at them, besides Xiao Yuqun.
Jiang Ke nodded slightly: "Yeah."
The second group of people were hidden in the dark and well hidden. Even Mo Qing could only detect their existence and could not confirm their specific number and location. But when Mo Qing went to Xiao Yuqun's place to cause trouble last night, he confirmed one of them.
A hiding place for those watching nearby.
She first glanced at Jiang Ke, pretending to move separately, and then unexpectedly came near the man.
Can--
What caught his eye made Mo Qing startled.
"Jiang Ke!"
Mo Qing's scalp was numb and he shouted subconsciously.
Jiang Ke, who was already nearby, heard the shouts and came over immediately. His vision was not as good as Mo Qing's, so he used a flashlight to see clearly the scene that made Mo Qing react——
That's half a carcass!
A living person, with only half of his body left, and everything above the waist disappeared. The military trousers were full of scratches and holes, the flesh and blood were blurred, and broken bones were exposed. The scene was horrific.
The scary thing is that there are no signs of struggle in the surrounding weeds.
This man definitely died before he could take action!
Jiang Ke shook Mo Qing's hand and motioned for Mo Qing to stay where he was, intending to go up and have a look, but Mo Qing's expression became condensed and she held him back.
Mo Qing said: "Follow me."
Mo Qing had never seen such a scene before.
The first reason why she reacted so strongly was that she was worried that Jiang Ke was in danger, and the second was because she realized that what happened to Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan...maybe not as simple as they thought.
Before Jiang Ke could say anything, Mo Qing walked towards that half of the body.
Jiang Ke followed her.
It stands to reason that this is the "first time" for Jiang Ke to see such a scene with his own eyes. No matter what his mental quality is, there should always be a certain buffer time. But what even he can't understand is that he is calm and numb at the moment, which has such a visual impact.
The powerful picture could not stir up the slightest ripple in his heart.
as if……
Commonplace.
While Mo Qing was checking that half of his body, Jiang Ke wanted to take a look around.
Hearing his footsteps, Mo Qing suddenly said: "Within five meters."
"good."
Jiang Ke paused and nodded.
Jiang Ke didn't go very far, because he followed the traces of blood and stepped over the bushes in front of him. After walking less than five meters, he saw another half of the body...
The flesh and blood were also blurred, and the facial features could no longer be seen clearly. The claw marks of the beast were particularly clear, and the internal organs were scattered all around.
"The time of death was no more than two hours." Mo Qing looked solemn, "While we were chatting, someone... no, maybe it was a beast hiding in the fog, and broke his waist with a claw. He didn't even have time to react.
No."
Jiang Ke's expression didn't look any better: "What kind of beast can do this?"
"Don't talk about wolves, even a blind bear can't do it." Mo Qing frowned, "Maybe it really is an unknown creature."
No wonder people in the New World are so wary of beasts in the fog.
The second group of people's physical, alert and other qualities must be far superior to ordinary people. They should have reached the top level of human beings, but they were still killed by one move...
What kind of beast is it?
There are no traces of fighting or blood around their camp. Are Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan... still safe?
It seems that this trip is not only about whether we can find Xiwu Village and the threats of the new world, but also about the unknown dangers hidden in the fog.
Jiang Ke asked: "Is there any movement nearby?"
"No."
After listening carefully for a moment, Mo Qing shook his head.
Jiang Ke pondered for a moment and said, "This place is dangerous, let's go back first."
The fog has not completely dissipated, and unknown dangers may still be hidden in it. The two of them had too little information, so they did not take risks rashly, but returned to the camp.
Nothing has changed at the campground.
Mo Qing had been paying attention to the unknown figure of the deceased who had his waist broken, and no one came close to him.
After another half hour, the fog showed signs of receding.
Jiang Ke handed Mo Qing some dry food and a bottle of hot water: "First fill your stomach."
The sudden disappearance of the two companions, coupled with the corpse, made everyone lose their appetite, but they could not sit still and wait for death. They had to eat to replenish their energy now.
A silent and serious atmosphere quietly spread.
Mo Qing took it, said "hmm", and then started eating.
Dry food has no taste and simply fills the stomach.
Jiang Ke boiled some more hot water, and then went to pack things. Halfway through packing, the camp next door became more lively, and it seemed that someone had discovered the body that was broken at the waist.
But it soon became quiet over there.
A more solemn atmosphere spread in the camp next door.
The second group of people still showed no sign of showing up.
When the sun was vaguely visible, Mo Qing and Jiang Ke began to search for Song Yiyuan. Chi Shi and the two of them expanded the scope, but they found no trace until two o'clock in the afternoon.
It was as if the two people walked to the river by themselves and then disappeared out of thin air.
