Mu Chengrui woke up completely, and checked around with Zhang Yanliang to see if he could find anything.But this surrounding has been seen countless times during the day, and it is dark now, so there is nothing new to discover.

"How long have they been gone?"

Zhang Yanliang didn't answer him, but just buried his head with a low-brightness flashlight and searched for something on the ground full of dead branches.After searching for a while, as if he had found something, he walked towards a certain direction of the forest with a flashlight without saying hello.

Mu Chengrui cursed in a low voice, and followed behind.He looked around, and the moonlight leaking from the branches could vaguely see the bones on the ground.Isn't this the road that you can't get out of if you die during the day?Could it be possible to make any changes by walking around at night.

And what's going on with the brats, even if there is any major discovery, they still have to leave a message.This is also what makes Mu Chengrui feel strange, because the little boy he knows will not leave without saying a word, could it be...

The scene of the three students being attacked by the monster immediately appeared in Mu Chengrui's head, the blood on his face faded away, and he was about to tell Zhang Yanliang his guess.But before he could speak, the man made a silent movement.Then he pointed to the place illuminated by the low-brightness flashlight. Mu Chengrui took a look and found that it was a curved tree trunk with a black-backed long knife stuck in it, penetrating three points into the tree.There were still some dark bloodstains near the knife edge, as if the knife had nailed something to the tree, and the thing was injured but still escaped.

Zhang Yanliang pulled out the knife and handed it to Mu Chengrui.

"It's the wooden boat's knife. It seems that something happened to them."

Zhang Yanliang touched the blood with his hands, put it on his nose and smelled it.

"It's not the blood of the wooden boat."

Dog nose it is.Mu Chengrui pouted.

"Then are they in danger?"

"I don't know. However, depending on the situation, they should have the upper hand and hurt the thing. But now that both of them have disappeared, I'm actually worried whether this is just a bait, the purpose is to lure people in, and then catch them all."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go find them quickly."

Zhang Yanliang nodded, and followed the whereabouts left by the little boy and the others.Because they were afraid that something would happen to the little boy and the two of them, they walked very fast.After walking for a while, Zhang Yanliang suddenly stopped.

"Have you noticed that something is wrong with this road?"

something is wrong.Mu Chengrui looked around following the flashlight in the opponent's hand, and instantly understood what the man meant.They walked for more than half of the time. According to the previous experiment, they should have returned to the original point - where Mr. Bone was, but now there are no bones around.

Is the maze broken just like that?It's really inexplicable.

"Are we out?"

"No, it's still in the forest. And I have the impression that it's very close to the clearing where we started."

What's the meaning.

"Remember how long it took us to leave the clearing and walk to the bones?"

Mu Chengrui was still counting the time with his fingers, but Zhang Yanliang directly threw out the answer.

"One day is a little more, at least more than 12 hours. And how long have we been walking just now..." Zhang Yanliang said while looking at his watch, "...It's only an hour. But the distance between us has surpassed It’s far away.” Zhang Yanliang suddenly turned off the power of the flashlight, and the surroundings fell into darkness for an instant.In the dark, you can vaguely see the light ahead.

"If I'm not mistaken, there should be the open space we left. That is to say, we not only walked out of the maze just now, but also returned to the place where we started from the edge. Maybe we didn't go far at all, yes Something was playing tricks, and it happened to be discovered by the wooden boat, injured, and driven away, so we broke through the maze and came back here."

Does that mean that the brats have already returned.Mu Chengrui was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, and hurried to the bright open space, even ignoring the man calling him.

But when they came to the open space, they found that there was no sound.Only the pile of firewood in the middle of the tent was still crackling and burning.

Mu Chengrui hurriedly opened the tent where they were, only to find that there was no one there.

"How did this happen? Where are the people? Where did they go?" Mu Chengrui opened several tents in a row, but found that there was still no one inside.Even the three injured students disappeared.

Zhang Yanliang touched the bedding in the tent, "There is still temperature, they should have just left not long ago."

"why?"

"It may be that some danger has been discovered, and there is no time to pack up."

"Leave a little message no matter what, this is all right, I don't even know if they are dead or alive."

"I don't know why they left. I think it's safe here for the time being. It's so late now. Let's wait here for a while. It's best for Mu Zhou and the others or Professor Li to come back. If they don't, we'll look for them at dawn. "

Mu Chengrui looked into the dark forest, he knew what the man said was reasonable, but when he thought that the little boy was tracking that weird thing, he felt a little anxious.

Zhang Yanliang added some firewood to the fire, and did not dare to rest in the tent, so he could only silently stare at the flames dancing slowly in the air.

"If they don't come back, where can we find them?" Mu Chengrui asked suddenly.

Zhang Yanliang didn't answer him, but just turned his gaze to the depths of the dry tree road.

"The forest is so big, I'm afraid we can't find them alone. At that time, we can take this road and go deep. I always think about the origin of this road. It's very strange, as if it guides We're reaching somewhere."

"Maybe that place is not a good place."

"Yes, it may be a trap. This is the inertia of the plants. They can't move, so they have to set traps and wait for the prey to come to their door. Maybe all the creatures here are trapped like this. They were animals before, but now they are humans. Those attacks We still don’t know what kind of monster it looks like, maybe it has a symbiotic relationship with the plant, the plant provides fruits, and the monster helps it collect nutrients.”

"This is too fantasy." Mu Chengrui said.

"It's this time, and you still say the word fantasy. Before the end of the day, you can imagine that people can make water, fire, and the like at will."

Zhang Yanliang turned on the fire, "I'm actually really surprised, you ignored Mu Zhou before, why did you suddenly want to recognize him as your son?"

"Didn't you say that I fell in love with him?" Mu Chengrui was bored with this topic.

Zhang Yanliang smiled faintly, "Isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, it's all fine, I'm too lazy to tell you."

I don't know what's going on with the little brat now, Mu Chengrui is too lazy to argue with him.Staring blankly at the flames, he yawned several times.

"Why don't you sleep for a while, and I'll wake you up in the middle of the night." The ground in the forest clearing was very dry. Compared with the ground outside which had been raining and snowing for days, the ground in the forest seemed very dry and warm.After walking through the woods for several days, I finally took a rest, but was woken up again, and all the organs of the body started to scream.Mu Chengrui was tired and sleepy, so he was not polite, and fell asleep first.

But he fell asleep for less than 10 minutes, Zhang Yanliang woke him up.

He was irritated and wanted to curse, but Zhang Yanliang handed him a gun very seriously, but looked into the darkness.

Mu Chengrui followed the other party's gaze and found a figure standing in the gap of the tent.The man was completely lost in the darkness, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly. He could only see the figure of the other party swaying with the light and shadow cast by the swaying leaves.

If it weren't for Zhang Yanliang's sharp eyes, it would be really hard to spot that person.

"Who?" Mu Chengrui shouted loudly.The black image was frightened, and quickly swept back.Zhang Yanliang's bullets followed, but missed.He chased like a leopard in the direction where the shadow disappeared, and in the end, only Mu Chengrui was left in the open space.

The black shadows in the surrounding tents are like monsters who choose to eat people, and each empty tent seems to hide unknown black shadows.Mu Chengrui was a little scared, tightly holding the pistol that Zhang Yanliang handed him, and staring at the place that the fire couldn't reach without blinking.

Time passed by every minute and every second, except for the crackling sound of the match when it was burning, there was only the sound of my own heartbeat in my ears.

This guy Zhang Yanliang may not have been too long. Did he catch that thing or not.Even if you didn't catch up, you should be back now, why haven't you come back.

Mu Chengrui waited anxiously, any slight sound in the forest made him startled.

Suddenly he felt the wind behind him, he turned his head abruptly, but there was nothing.Just breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and saw a huge head facing him.It was a deer head, and the weird thing was that this deer head grew on a person.Human-like limbs, but covered in brown fur.

Mu Chengrui yelled, closed his eyes and shot at the deer head monster a few times, and when he opened his eyes again, there was nothing in front of him.He took the gun and looked around, but there was nothing.But if you look closely, you can see human-like black figures standing in the shadows of the surrounding tents.Mu Chengrui was vigilant in fear, he was most afraid of this kind of inhuman thing, even if it was a zombie, we would beat him to death with a gun or a knife at worst.But now this kind of ghost who doesn't even know anything, coupled with his imagination, will only make him more scared.

Suddenly a black shadow slowly approached from the shadows, Mu Chengrui pointed his gun at the black shadow, but his hands were shaking.Just as he pulled the trigger, his pistol was held by someone.

"Don't open the gun, it's me." Ye Chengqing's appearance slowly appeared, and the surrounding shadows disappeared like black smoke.

It's Ye Chengqing, so the brat...

Then he saw the little boy also walk into the aperture.Mu Chengrui scanned his whole body with his eyes, but he didn't see any trauma.A heart finally let go.

"Where's Zhang Yanliang?" Qin Muzhou asked immediately.

This brat is your adoptive father with just one word.

"There was a black shadow there before, and Zhang Yanliang chased it."

As soon as he heard that Zhang Yanliang was chasing the monster, the boy immediately chased him in the direction he pointed.
