Chapter 326 Trap to capture the beast

"Why can't you get out?" I kept a proper distance from these five people, took out my compass and shook it.

"I have the tools, so it shouldn't be a problem."

"You think too simply."

The tall man shook his head. He was in his thirties, had dark skin, and looked very calm. He should be the leader of this team of travel companions.

He thought for a moment and then said: "If you really want to wander around in this mountain, why not come with us? We all go together and take care of each other. It will always be safer."

"Thank you for your kindness. It won't be a problem." I smiled slightly, "I came to this deserted mountain just to be alone."

The tall, muscular man came over and handed me a business card.

"Then we won't bother you, but if you encounter any difficulties, you can call me."

Seeing my confused look, he smiled lightly.

"We are all members of the same family, and we should help each other."

"Okay, thank you." I glanced at the business card.

The tall, muscular man's name is Chen Jingdong, and he is an outdoor goods store owner.

It seemed understandable that he would get along with me, for the sake of having more customers in the future.

But I didn't show it just now. In fact, he had a strange smell on his body. It was very light and ordinary people couldn't smell it.

I can't say what the smell is, and it can't be generally defined as smelly, but it gives people a not-so-good, lifeless feeling.

Therefore, I secretly activated my celestial eye and looked at all five people.

As expected, they are all covered in black energy, and there will be a catastrophe today.

"Since you know there is danger on the mountain, why do you still come up?" I couldn't help but ask more.

"Dangers can be avoided. The charm of hiking lies in overcoming all kinds of difficulties and reaching the end. The sense of satisfaction is unparalleled." Chen Jingdong said with a smile.

"Then where is your end point?" I looked curious.

"The final destination is the top of the mountain. In addition to this, there are many small goals along the way. Since you don't come with us, I won't introduce them one by one."

"Okay, besides wild beasts, what dangers are there on this mountain?"

"Be careful not to get lost."

Chen Jingdong waved his hand to me and left here under the impatient urging of his teammates.

"Remember, call me if you need anything."

"goodbye."

Watching these five people leave, I narrowed my eyes.

I don't have an accurate conclusion about their identities, but based on the black energy on their bodies, I won't go with them.

Bad luck is contagious.

When their figures disappeared, I started on the road again.

"Beast, lost." I glanced at the compass and continued to the west, deep into Yunhua Mountain.

The beast is easy to understand. Why did Chen Jingdong specifically remind me to be careful about getting lost?

Is it a ghost beating the wall, or is there a magnetic field interference tool?

The reason is unknown, but the road ahead should not be peaceful.

Pulling myself together, I continued walking into the mountains while paying attention to the movements around me.

The deeper into Yunhua Mountain, the darker the surroundings become.

The grass was up to my knees, and unknown animals rustled through the grass from time to time. Other than that, it was my footsteps.

The wildly growing weeds and trees present a primitive attitude, fully demonstrating that this is an inaccessible and remote mountain.

If I hadn't met that group of travel companions, I would have even had the illusion that I was the only living person in the mountain.

In order to avoid snakes and insects, I slapped the grass with branches as I walked.

Ding dong!

The branch struck something, it seemed to be metal.

I stopped cautiously and used branches to push aside the grass, my eyes widening involuntarily.

On the ground is a rusty animal trap. The trap opens to both sides, and the teeth on it are sharp and hard.

Why are there animal traps in the uninhabited mountains?

The bottom of the bear trap has been sunk into the soil and is stained with rust. It may have been placed by a hunter many years ago.

I took a second look, avoided the animal trap, and was more careful on the next journey.

If you step on this kind of animal trap, your foot will be gone.

Regardless of whether the bear trap here is broken or not, I can't try this just in case.

The forest is getting darker and darker.

About half an hour later, I came across another animal trap with the body of a small animal on it.

The body that had been severed by the saw teeth had rotted away, leaving only gray bones and a few pieces of broken fur. It was impossible to even see what kind of animal it was.

This was just an inconspicuous discovery, but it aroused my doubts.

If it was a trap placed by a hunter, why wasn't the prey taken away?

Did something unexpected happen to the hunter, or were these animal traps not intended for wild animals at all?

I frowned slightly and continued walking forward.

I came across two or three more bear traps one after another. The styles and sizes were the same as those I had seen before. They were rusty and the bottom was submerged in the soil.

Apparently, placed at the same time.

Moreover, the direction in which the bear trap appeared was consistent with my goal, both in the west.

In order to verify my guess, I spent some time and went around to check in other directions.

Only the west has bear traps placed.

It seems that someone did this deliberately, not wanting anyone to get close to the mountains in the west.

This is not a good sign.

However, thinking about it conversely, this just shows that there must be something in the deep mountains of the west.

I am more and more convinced that I am on the right track.

I tightened my backpack, braced myself, and continued walking deeper into the mountain.

I've looked at the map and I'm already halfway through the journey. As long as I keep this pace and don't have any accidents along the way, I can reach the deepest point in the west.

After continuing for a while, the bear trap was gone, but I still didn't dare to take it lightly and was always cautious.

But even so, I still fell for it.

The grass in front looks normal, I slapped it with branches and found no problems.

But when I stepped on it, there was an instant bang.

I stepped on the wrong foot and fell down uncontrollably.

In panic, I instinctively waved my hands, but I didn't know what to grab, and I held on tightly to prevent it from falling completely.

After all the grass, dirt and gravel fell, I opened my eyes and looked down, and suddenly a layer of cold sweat broke out on my back.

At the bottom was a row of sharpened wood, the sharp points facing me.

This is a trap that is not difficult but vicious and effective.

If I hadn't grabbed the thing in my hand just now and it fell, you can imagine what the consequences would be.

Taking a breath of fear, I grabbed the dead vine in my hand and carefully climbed out of the trap.

Just like that, my back was wet with cold sweat.

I stood nearby and took a few breaths.

Looking at the wood that had been polished and turned black inside the trap, I knew that this was definitely not the first trap.

The road to the west is full of dangers.

I need to be more careful.

Wiping the cold sweat from my forehead, I regained my composure and found a sturdier stick to use as a cane.

As expected, I encountered two more traps one after another.

After walking such a long way, I didn't encounter any wild beasts, but I did encounter a lot of traps to catch wild beasts.

Perhaps it is because of this that the outside world spreads rumors that there are wild beasts in the mountains.

Then those who set these traps have achieved their purpose.
