Chapter 605: Chapter 606: How Could They Be Murdered? Chapter 605: Chapter 606: How Could They Be Murdered? Why enter the mountain?
At this mont, sitting in a “pleasant” slling cave, Xiao’ai, who was beside an immobile soldier, couldn’t understand why a child like herself would enter the mountain.
Touching her nose, which had stopped bleeding, Xiao’ai thought, perhaps it was because of this?
She wondered if deep mountains all looked the sa, or if it was just the sa old problems that inevitably arose in the old forest.
Just like the peril Su Shu and Tang Zelin faced in the Peng Mountain area, not long after the Hunting Team from the safe zone entered the mountain, they caught several wild animals in succession, scoring an initial victory that bred confidence.
Unknowingly, the team ventured deeper and deeper inside.
And they inevitably encountered terrifying things.
Su Shu and Tang Zelin had encountered a group of snakes at that ti; here, they ran into a wild boar.
Everyone naturally scread and fled in all directions when they suddenly stumbled upon such a giant beast.
Ji Dong and others, who had entered the mountain later for a rescue, arrived upon hearing the noise; several tragedies had already occurred, and after they quickly shot the wild boar, so warriors were also injured to varying degrees.
Yet, these weren’t the greatest difficulties. The biggest difficulty was that so people had fallen off a cliff.
Among those people was Bai Qinghuan, who had been accidentally pulled down by soone panicking next to her.
However, whether she was there or not, Ji Dong would have gone to rescue them.
After rescuing several people, Ji Dong was on the brink of collapse due to physical exhaustion, but Bai Qinghuan was still in the most remote position below.
Soone wanted to replace Ji Dong to go down and rescue, but he refused.
He had been up and down several tis and had so experience; letting soone else go might an that not only would no one be saved, but another life might be risked as well.
When he finally pulled Bai Qinghuan up using all his strength, his physical strength had still not held up for him to climb up himself.
In the eyes of everyone watching helplessly, he fell into the abyss.
At the mont he fell, he rembered what Xiao’ai had once said to him:
You are about to die.
At the ti, he had only thought it was a child’s playful remark.
But now, feeling the sensation of falling continuously, yes, he was about to die.
…
Su Shu, accompanied by Fox, had circled around the mountain several tis before finally finding this cave.
Walking in, Su Shu saw Xiao’ ai’s small back, just sitting quietly next to Ji Dong.
“Xiao’ai?”
Su Shu called out softly.
After a while, the little girl finally turned her head, and upon seeing her, tears stread down her face.
Su Shu, heartbroken, hurried over to embrace her, her own heart racing.
“You scared to death! How can you run into the deep mountains like this, so small? What if sothing had happened to you?”
Xiao’ai, seeing her dearest Su Shu, hugged her neck and cried, “Auntie, he’s dead.”
Su Shu hugged her, leaned forward, and extended her finger to check for Ji Dong’s breath.
There was no breath at all, and her fingers quickly withdrew, her face drastically changing.
“Fox, guard the entrance.”
“Okay.”
Fox dutifully went to stand guard, and Su Shu let go of Xiao’ai, wiping away her tears, trying to calm herself down first.
Xiao’ai could cry; she couldn’t.
Looking at Ji Dong, who lay “breathless” on the ground, her heart was undeniably shocked.
She was just one step too late, and Ji Dong had been tragically lost.
Yet, Su Shu also noticed sothing very strange.
For instance, why, when she found Xiao’ai, was it in this cave?
If there was anything peculiar, it was that in this cave, only Ji Dong and Xiao’ai were together, where were the others?
