"What did you say?!"

Standing in the backyard, Lu Xiaoyao looked up at Charlie and the others from the second-floor window and replied, "They went to the wasteland to track down the evil spirits. I'm going to follow them and see!"

After saying that, Lu Xiaoyao waved her hand and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Leng Youyou was really worried about Lu Xiaoyao and called out to her, "I'll go with you!"

After saying that, he turned and left through the window, taking his equipment and telling Lu Xiaoyao to wait for him.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Leng Youyou finally went downstairs and met up with Lu Xiaoyao.

Last night, her dagger was broken in the vegetable garden. Now, the weapon she was holding was a kitchen knife, which Lu Xiaoyao only realized after looking at it for a long time.

"You..."

"cough!"

Feeling a little embarrassed by Lu Xiaoyao's surprised gaze, Leng Youyou coughed lightly and said, "In urgent situations, we must act expediently. I have already obtained the boss's permission to borrow the kitchen knife."

"That's not what I care about."

Lu Xiaoyao looked at the kitchen knife in her hand, thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's go out first."

After saying that, he held the umbrella over Leng Youyou's head again.

It wasn't until they entered the vegetable garden that Leng Youyou understood what Lu Xiaoyao meant by "go out first."

She discovered that the sharp kitchen knife she had just been holding was actually a rusty and dull broken knife.

Leng Youyou: "..."

However, they couldn't waste any more time. Lu Xiaoyao looked in the direction they had just returned from and found that Julian and Hu Yue had not only left, but also that they couldn't see anyone in the distance.

"Oh no! We agreed not to go in!"

Seeing this, Lu Xiaoyao immediately became anxious and quickened her pace, forcing Leng Youyou to speed up as well to avoid being hit on the head by the umbrella.

Following the footprints of the two people, they walked towards the edge of the dense forest. At the last moment, Leng Youyou grabbed the anxious Lu Xiaoyao and pointed to the figure holding an umbrella diagonally in front of them, saying, "Look, isn't the person right there?"
