Capítulo 958: Chapter 958: Encountering Mountain Spirits—And There Are Twelve!
[Oh my! It’s that kid from before! How did he end up behind us?!]
[Twins, huh, they look way too alike.]
[Kids this young roaming around in the mountains, isn’t that a bit eerie?]
The livestream chat was abuzz with all sorts of comnts.
Although the sudden shift of the cara initially startled everyone, the netizens quickly started chattering away.
No doubt about it, these two kids looked way too similar.
They were as exquisite as jade, dressed like so Child, totally unlike village kids.
Jack Wright thought so too, but then figured it’s broad daylight, no use scaring himself, and quickly steadied his nerves,
“Hey kids, why are you wandering around the mountains? Where are your folks?”
The two children just looked at him, not afraid, and the kid who spoke first simply replied,
“We’re here to dig bamboo shoots.”
Since the Tribulation Thunder struck, the Spiritual Energy in the mountains increased, coupled with the rain, many new bamboo shoots had erged.
“Uncle, are you here to dig bamboo shoots too?”
“Sort of.”
Jack Wright was initially planning a vague response, but then thought if these kids often run around the mountains, maybe they know sothing about the dragon.
He was about to ask when the two kids exchanged a glance and waved at him,
“We’re leaving now.”
Without waiting for him, they dashed off in the other direction, disappearing quickly.
Jack Wright felt sothing was off, but with the cara rolling he didn’t show it, only smiled and gestured to the cara,
“Must be the village kids, twins are so cute. The kids said there are bamboo shoots in the mountains, I’ll take a look later, if I find so, I’ll dig a couple as a treat for everyone watching the livestream…”
He said this while walking forward, coincidentally in the direction the two kids ran off to.
Focused on interacting with the viewers, he missed the sudden flurry of comnts on the screen urging him to look [behind].
Jack Wright’s spine tingled once more, he swiftly turned around, and then…
He was staring at that pair of twin kids again.
This ti, there was only one.
But unlike the two kids from earlier, this child had a basket on his back.
Clearly, this wasn’t one of the two kids from before.
After all, those two kids had been ahead of him, but this one was behind.
Suppressing the creeping unease, Jack Wright forced a kindly smile at the child before him.
The child, much like the one who spoke earlier, tilted his head up, looking at him, voice and manner all identical,
“Uncle, where are you from?”
“I’m from the city… You- I just saw a pair of twins, are you with them?”
“Yes.” The child chirped, without speaking further, soon dashed off in another direction.
Jack Wright, slightly unsettled, decided to head in a different direction.
Still managing to greet the viewers, “Looks like there’s triplets, quite rare.”
He actually overlooked one—the child who initially ran away without a word; if that one wasn’t among the three he’d seen, then it’d be quadruplets…
Quadruplets, though rare, are not impossible.
He figured he might be overthinking it.
With that thought, he walked ahead and suddenly saw another child identical to the one before.
Jack Wright: …
Was he encountering so kind of peculiar Ghost hitting the wall phenonon?
Not just him, even the viewers in the livestream couldn’t hold back their screams.
This isn’t right!
This is very wrong!!
Five look-alike kids running all over the mountains? It’s not like they’re carrots!
Many viewers suspected Jack Wright might have stumbled upon so Mountain Spirit.
Jack Wright really didn’t want to scare himself, still forced on saying maybe it’s just the mountain paths being tangled, eting again could happen.
Surely just triplets.
But his attempt at composure was quickly dealt a blow.
He found two places resembling pits, except they were filled with bamboo shoots.
Densely packed, striking amidst a stretch of scorched earth.
Jack Wright instinctively moved to investigate, just as his hand reached for the shoots, he heard a familiar child’s voice not far away,
“Those bamboo shoots can’t be picked.”
Raising his head, he saw the pair of twins had sohow appeared in a bush nearby.
He was just about to ask why they couldn’t be picked when another child erged from behind a nearby tree,
“Those shoots in the pit belong to Sister Bi, can’t take them.”
Then another child popped up, agreeing,
“Yes, Sister Bi will get angry.”
Sister Bi angry, terrifying.
Jack Wright was dumbfounded.
But what completely stunned him was as those few kids appeared, the surrounding woods gradually revealed another seven to eight identical children, totaling twelve!
Twelve children, just standing nearby watching him, as if encircling him, mumbling for him not to touch.
Jack Wright wouldn’t dare touch anything now!
All he wanted was to run.
Twelve identical kids in the mountains, definitely not normal.
Clearly, he had stumbled upon sothing.
These kids, either beasts from the mountain or little Ghosts, each eerily mysterious.
As for that Sister Bi, he dared not ask further.
Fear that questioning might ground him for good.
Jack Wright had entirely forgotten about his initial dragon search; now, he was solely focused on finding a way out.
Just then, an inexplicable fog began to envelop the mountain.
The mist gradually masked the figures of the twelve children, Jack Wright felt the fog’s eeriness, followed by another sound.
A different set of footsteps from the children’s, drawing slowly towards him.
Jack Wright’s cara shook, if not for the stabilizing rig, the footage would be unwatchable.
Despite this, viewers felt his trembling fear, so urged him to hold his ground, see what’s coming.
Others advised him to run quickly, or else later he’d really be unable to flee.
Most viewers were both scared and intrigued.
As everyone, including the host, held their breath, a silhouette finally erged from the fog.
Jack Wright’s heart instantly leapt into his throat.
However, upon discerning the figure stepping out of the fog, he was dumbfounded.
Not only him, the livestream viewers were equally perplexed.
[This girl, I feel like I’ve seen her sowhere…]
Jack Wright recognized her too.
He even identified her at first glance.
As a strear, especially one exploring the supernatural, she was recognized by all.
The figure stepping out from the fog…
Was Scarlett Jennings!!
