Tomb raiding: Trying to become a little painter

"He Nian is right. We need to find the person alive or dead. It wouldn't hurt to send more people up the mountain to search!"

Wu Xie echoed Qin Henian's words, and casually patted Wang Pangzi on the shoulder, receiving a look of approval in return.

"Going up the mountain to look... Father will probably do the same. At that time, almost everyone in the village will go up the mountain to look for them. You four bosses will have to rest at home by yourselves later!"

Yun Cai sighed. Her father was the village chief and the one who made the decisions. Based on her understanding of her father, she estimated that he would organize people to go up the mountain as soon as he arrived.

"The person is missing, how can we stay in the house and rest? The more people there are, the more help we can provide. The four of us will go up the mountain with you to look for them!"

Qin Henian interrupted Yun Cai's words. He didn't want to stay in the house like a lazy bum. Since the little Qilin had a close relationship with this place, he naturally had to control all the details. He wanted to see who this Pan Ma was!

Since Qin Henian's words were exactly what the other three thought, no one had any objections.

As A-Gui ran over from afar and learned about the situation from the villagers, just as Yun Cai had said, A-Gui, as the village chief, divided the villagers who were going up the mountain and, taking advantage of the afternoon before noon, led them up the mountain.

Because Qin Henian and his companions were from out of town and unfamiliar with the mountain paths and Panma, Agui divided the clouds among the four of them, letting them go up the mountain in groups of five to find someone.

"Panma!"

"anyone there?"

In the jungle, Qin Henian and his companions, holding wooden sticks they had found haphazardly among the trees, were swatting at the weeds and bushes, constantly calling out for the man named Pan Ma...

Although it was daytime, the weather was bad, gloomy as if it were dusk. The villagers scattered, some searching carefully with flashlights, others relying on their eyesight...

Qin Henian and his group continued to advance into the forest. They walked and shouted for a long time until their throats were dry. In the end, they stopped shouting and began to search quietly.

Instead of wandering around the mountain for days, it's better to find a familiar route and head straight ahead...

"Panma! Where are you?"

"Is anyone here?! Fatty's throat's burning from shouting, it feels like my ass hurts from eating hotpot... Come out here!"

Fatty Wang kept calling out in a weak voice. Because he wanted to impress the girl he liked, he was the most enthusiastic in calling out, especially when looking for someone.

As the day slowly passed, darkness gradually fell, and the clouds obscured the stars and the hazy moonlight...

swish swish...

Suddenly, a dark head emerged from behind a huge cypress tree in the woods. The owner of the head had a fierce look in his eyes, staring intently at the five people who were gradually approaching him.

Panma had been scurrying through the forest for the past few days, searching for many places with spider webs and even smearing the webs all over his body. But as he moved through the forest, he discovered that all the sacred spiders in their forbidden area had disappeared. There wasn't a single spider in the newly hatched spiderling nests, as if they had vanished into thin air.

Panma was a little panicked. Over the years, he had used this forest to harm many outsiders with ulterior motives, and suddenly the "sharp blade" in his hand had disappeared. Anyone would be confused in this situation.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally Panma attributed this extremely absurd thing to the few outsiders who came to their village this time, namely Qin Henian and his three companions.

His disappearance this time was mainly to lure these outsiders over so he could catch them all in one fell swoop!

As he pondered this, Panma unconsciously gripped the sickle he held behind his back tightly...

On the other side, Qin Henian and his group of five were still wandering around, but Qin Henian looked at the increasingly familiar spider webs on the surrounding tree branches and fell into deep thought.

“Sister Yun Cai! Your forest is really big. No wonder all the uncles and aunties in your village came out to look for someone.”

Wang Pangzi was already quite large and heavy, and after walking for several hours, he had exhausted a lot of energy, even though he wasn't Iron Man.

"Fatty, you don't know this, but our village lives off the mountains. There are many places in these mountains that even we locals dare not go!"

"If it weren't for Uncle Panma's high seniority in our village, so many people wouldn't be willing to come looking for him!"

Yun Cai's face was covered in sweat, and she felt that her clothes were also soaked with sweat. Her vision had changed from a green field to a dark forest. Even with the light on, she was exhausted.

"Why do you say that? What kind of 'strangeness' does this Panma person have in your village?"

Fatty Wang chatted while exploring his surroundings.

"There's nothing special about it, he's just the best hunter in our village!"

Yun Cai's eyes darted around as she surveyed her surroundings. She had never been to this place before, but she knew where she was. For some reason, she felt a sense of unease deep down.

Swish!

Just then, a sword rang out with the sound of wind, and a hook-shaped black shadow and a person suddenly appeared from behind a tree on the left and slashed at Wu Xie, the nearest Chosen One!

Zhang Qilin reacted quickly; the moment footsteps and the sound of wind appeared, he grabbed Wu by the back of the neck and dragged him to another location.

"careful!"

Zhang Qilin's cold voice rang out, and the people around him instantly tensed up and went into a defensive state.

Seeing that his attack had missed, the newcomer twitched his nose as if he had smelled something. His pupils widened suddenly, and his fingers unconsciously tightened their grip on the sickle. The next second, he flipped his hand and picked up the knife, placing it on the neck of Yun Cai, who was closest to him and hadn't reacted yet, with the blade facing inwards toward her neck.

"Don't move! Don't come any closer!"

The man's hoarse voice came from his throat.

"Uncle Pan... Uncle Pan?... It's me... It's Yun Cai! What are you doing?"

Yun Cai was startled by the sudden kidnapping. Then, a familiar voice came from behind her. Yun Cai immediately knew who was kidnapping her. Who else could it be but Pan Ma, the one they had come to find today?

"Yun Cai! I'm sorry, but don't move, or my knife won't be a soft weapon!"

Panma's grip on the sickle showed no sign of loosening, and his eyes fiercely surveyed the people around him. He then moved with Yun Cai to a tree to lean against, in case anyone tried to ambush them.

"Little Cloud! Don't be afraid! Fatty will definitely save you!"

"So you're the person Fatty and I have been looking for all afternoon? So many people in the village have been looking for you, and when you disappeared, Sister Yun Cai still went through all this trouble with us, and now you're pulling this farmer and snake act!"

"Are you even human?! You're called Panma, right? I think you should be called Niuma instead, you have no conscience at all!"

"Let go of my little cloud sister right now!"

When Fatty Wang saw Yun Cai being held hostage, his heart pounded wildly. He couldn't care less about what he was doing and started chattering away, his mind racing as he tried to figure out how to save her. He also glanced at his buddies with pleading and resourceful eyes.

"Bad people are always so disgustingly evil. You are full of sin and bloodshed, and you have many lives on your hands, haven't you?"

"You reap what you sow. Evil people will be punished by other evil people! If no one punishes them... Little Qilin, kill him!"

Looking at the current situation, Qin Henian's lips curled into a handsome smile, his eyes were icy cold, like the coldest winter ice, and he patted Zhang Qilin, who had just pulled Wu Xie aside.

"it is good!"

Zhang Qilin did not refuse Qin Henian's proposal, because ever since he became a beast, he has been able to see the "cause and effect of good and evil" of everyone within ten meters of him.
