Best Son-in-law
Chapter 386 Step 4444
The five roads all looked very cold and desolate, with overgrown vegetation and heavy fog.
But there was a bit of light on the middle road.
Seeing this scene, Qi Wenjing's heart instantly ignited hope. She felt that if she walked through the middle road, she would meet Li Fan and Yan Wanyun.
As a result, Qi Wenjing couldn't wait for a moment.
"Teacher Yan, Guide Li." With tears in her eyes, Qi Wenjing could no longer control her inner fear and rushed straight into the middle road.
But she didn't know yet that where she was standing now, there was a pair of huge bloody eyes, cold and cruel, and the smell of blood seemed to be filling the air.
Moreover, after Qi Wenjing stepped onto the middle road, the road she originally walked disappeared and became winding and strange, leading to different directions.
And in the middle of these roads, there is a strange sign carved on it.
…
On the other side, Li Fan and the other four walked forward cautiously. After walking for a while, Li Fan even carved a mark on the tree with a knife.
"Village Chief Xia, do you still remember the way we just came up?" Li Fan asked.
"Remember, we walked a total of 2,876 steps." Xia Menglan's white cheeks were covered with sweat.
"Okay." After hearing these words, Li Fan nodded repeatedly and was secretly surprised. He didn't expect Xia Menglan to be so precise and kept counting the steps.
"Mr. Li, I, I seem to hear Wenjing's shouting again, what should I do?" Yan Wanyun's face was covered with sweat at this time, and she felt that her ears kept buzzing, and she heard Qi Wenjing's cry from time to time. The cry, this cry tightened Yan Wanyun's heart, making it agitate.
"The fact that she is shouting now means that she is fine. Teacher Yan, calm down. We must calm down and make sure nothing goes wrong. Now the four of us together can definitely bring Wen Jing back." Just like that, Li Fan walked in front, Yan Wanyun and others followed behind.
Li Fan took a few steps and made a mark. Xia Menglan's forehead was covered with sweat and she kept counting the steps in her mouth.
"How many steps?" Li Fan saw that the road in front of him seemed to be endless, so he couldn't help but open his eyes and asked Xia Menglan.
"Three thousand three hundred and thirty-three steps." Xia Menglan suddenly opened her eyes and looked ahead.
"It seems that this place has not changed. It is still the same scenic spot. Are we going around in circles?" Cold sweat broke out on Xia Menglan's forehead, fear, fear, and all kinds of negative emotions came to mind.
Hearing such a terrifying view, Yan Wanyun's heart was in her throat.
"Qiao Jie, are there any problems later?" Li Fan remembered and asked Qiao Jie.
But no one answered at this moment.
"What's going on? Qiao Jie, Qiao Jie." Yan Wanyun's heart was beating wildly, and she was shouting loudly.
At this moment, no one answered or paid attention to her.
The air smelled thick and bloody, and everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Yan Wanyun turned around and found that the place where Qiao Jie was standing next to him was empty. A good-looking man disappeared right in front of their eyes.
"Qiao Jie, Qiao Jie." Yan Wanyun's cry echoed throughout the Five Poison Peaks, but there was never an echo.
"Is there a ghost here?" Yan Wanyun asked after crying for a while.
"Impossible, there can't be any weirdos in this place, but it's still very possible that some things are up to something fishy." Li Fan said in a deep voice. He knew that at such a critical moment, he must not mess up. If he messed up, If there are only a few people, don’t even think about going out.
"Then where will Qiao Jie go?" Yan Wanyun felt very guilty. She brought the two children, and now they are gone. She doesn't know how she should explain to their families.
"Teacher Yan, don't worry, you have to think calmly about our current situation and how to deal with it. I have now figured out some of the tricks here." Li Fan said solemnly.
"What's wrong?" Yan Wanyun was a little confused.
"First of all, there won't be any so-called ghosts in this place. Some ghosts are nothing more than strange creatures that want to do us harm. Secondly, these creatures don't dare to attack the four of us. They only dare to confuse people alone. If one person strikes again, it doesn't even dare to face one person alone. What does it mean? This creature is not strong, so we don't have to be afraid of it. As for the terrain, I do know that some creatures can create illusions, so we must stay calm at this time , save your energy, otherwise you will really become the delicacy of this creature." Li Fan reminded, he was very calm now and analyzed his opponent.
"Li Fan is right. If this thing was really so strong, it would have come out and eaten us all. Why wait so long? In fact, it is very weak and does not even dare to come out, so we must calm down and deal with it. If you are scared out of your wits, you will become its plaything." Xia Menglan also bravely said.
"But Qiao Jie, what should we do about Wen Jing? Will they arrest her?" Yan Wanyun was worried about the two children.
"They're fine. This thing probably wants to scare us out of courage, then grind our spirits step by step, and finally kill us by its own means. Therefore, as long as Wen Jing and Qiao Jie don't have a mental breakdown, there won't be any matter." Li Fan analyzed calmly.
"The key lies in this fog." Li Fan looked at the heavy fog in front of him and narrowed his eyes.
"I knew there was fog on the mountain, but I didn't know there was something else that could use the fog like this." Li Fan seemed to have thought of something and frowned.
But just behind the three people, there was another person hidden in the heavy fog.
This person was none other than Qiao Jie. He found that he could clearly hear the conversation between the three of them, but was unable to make any response. It was as if there was something between them.
Qiao Jie kept shouting, but the three of them seemed not to hear.
Qiao Jie was not very courageous at first, but this time he was completely panicked. He wanted to move, but couldn't. His body suddenly became stiff and he couldn't move at all.
A thick layer of fog appeared in front of him, as if it was this fog that stopped him.
Qiao Jie twisted around desperately, but in the end he just heard Li Fan say something.
"Let's go first."
Then he couldn't keep up and watched as the people moved further and further away until they couldn't see clearly.
Qiao Jie was so frightened that he shed tears, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that the restraints on his body were lifted and he could move.
Qiao Jie seemed to be going crazy, rushing forward desperately to chase Li Fan and the others.
However, where is their shadow on this road?
Qiao Jie asked himself whether he was running slowly, so he tried hard to catch up. Moreover, Li Fan and the others were walking, and they hadn't walked long yet.
But Qiao Jie couldn't see them at this time.
The fog in front of me is getting thicker and thicker.
Qiao Jie collapsed to the ground, goosebumps spread all over his body, his legs went weak, and his body trembled involuntarily.
"What's going on? What's going on? People? People? I'm here, Teacher Xia, Guide Li." However, no matter how Qiao Jie shouted, Li Fan and the others were nowhere to be seen.
Fear filled his heart, and Qiao Jie was unwilling to give up. He gritted his teeth and stood up again. He suddenly remembered what Li Fan said in front of him before. It was just a little trick of a creature.
"That's right." Qiao Jie had an idea and ran to the tree next to him to read the words engraved on it.
Just now he saw with his own eyes that Li Fan made a mark. He could definitely follow the mark to find them or get out of the Five Poison Peaks.
There was nothing on any tree, so he went to look at other trees.
Still nothing.
Qiao Jie didn't give up. He searched around and finally found Li Fan's mark on a tree, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
"With this mark, I can find the person, or I can go out." Qiao Jie finally calmed down and moved forward in the direction of the mark.
He hopes to return to the main force with this.
At this time, Li Fan and the other three faced the surroundings in a triangle shape and carefully observed the surrounding situation.
Xia Menglan was still counting steps, and Yan Wanyun was observing the terrain and the shape of the vegetation, hoping to find some clues.
Li Fan was responsible for continuing to mark.
At this moment, Yan Wanyun couldn't help but exclaimed: "We have been here before."
She pointed to a tree inside and continued: "You marked it here."
Li Fan and Xia Menglan actually went over to take a look and found that just as Yan Wanyun said, they had marked this place.
There is more than one tree here, and there are many more trees inside. Li Fan just marked the outermost tree.
"There are marks here too." Xia Menglan accidentally saw that the tree next to her also had marks.
"The trees here are all marked." Yan Wanyun entered the forest and saw that all the trees had the marks they just made. At this time, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.
"Let's go around in circles." Li Fan finally came to a conclusion, a conclusion that all three of them recognized.
"We looked at walking forward, but in fact we were just spinning around in place and didn't really go out, so the steps just now were also fake." Li Fan said.
"Then let's stop walking and go directly through the forest. Maybe the road shape has been affected?" Xia Menglan looked at the forest and said.
"How many steps have we walked now?" Li Fan thought for a while and asked.
"Four thousand four hundred and forty-four steps." Xia Menglan said a very clever number. When she said this number, she was also stunned.
At three thousand three hundred and thirty-three steps, Qiao Jie disappeared. At four thousand four hundred and forty-four steps, they discovered here that they had actually been spinning in circles.
It was as if everything had been arranged in advance.
Yan Wanyun and Xia Menglan looked at each other, they both had this idea.
Everything was arranged in advance, something arranged everything, and the next thing the creature had in mind was to get them through the woods.
"It wants us to go through the forest." Xia Menglan pointed at the forest and said, her body covered with goosebumps.
"I know, maybe when we go one thousand one hundred and eleven steps forward, something wonderful will happen. But if we don't go this way, will we continue to spin in circles?" Li Fan couldn't help but touch his chin, Started to think.
