I have been paying attention to Xiao Ding's condition. When I saw that Xiao Ding's eyes were shining, I knew that Xiao Ding had thought of it.
Sure enough, Xiao Ding looked at Jack expectantly and said, "Is it because all the animals are eating the dragon leaf, so the amount is too small to supply all the animals?"
Jack didn't say whether it was right or wrong, but just said lightly, "Continue to analyze."
Sure enough, when Xiao Ding heard this, his brows furrowed and he looked conflicted, because he didn't know whether the result of his analysis was right or wrong. However, since Jack said so, he could only try his best.
After a while, Xiao Ding raised his head hesitantly and asked, "Is it because the Dragon Leaves are scarce? And even if they don't hunt other animals, other animals will come to hunt them, right?"
Jack nodded and finally said, "That's right. And this Dragon Leaf can only help them hide their second male when they are hungry, but it doesn't do them much good. If they don't hunt other animals for a long time, they will slowly die from lack of physical strength."
"So this Dragon Leaf can only be used to satisfy hunger, right?" I was quite interested in what Jack said, so I walked over, picked a leaf, and said this.
"That's right." Jack confirmed my thoughts and nodded.
After saying that, Jack picked a piece of dragon leaf, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.
Xiao Ding looked at Jack's expression with curiosity, but did not see any change in Jack's expression.
When I saw Jack's action, I remembered that Jack had not eaten anything this morning, and this Dragon Leaf came in handy now.
Seeing him like this, I suddenly felt a little ashamed. I don't know why I had to force them to eat snake meat this morning? They clearly didn't like it, and there was still some food, so why make such a fuss? Now Jack has to pick dragon leaves on the roadside to eat.
I looked at the fat man. He noticed that I was looking at him. Maybe he was thinking of my performance this morning, so he turned his head coldly to the other side. When I saw the fat man's performance, I could only sigh that it was all his own fault.
Jack didn't notice the exchange between the fat man and me, but closed his eyes and carefully savored the flavor of the dragon leaves, as if he was eating not weeds but delicious food. There seemed to be some aftertaste after chewing, so he picked a few more leaves and put them in his mouth, closing his eyes to taste them.
When Xiao Ding saw Jack eating the dragon leaf, it seemed very delicious. He was a little eager to pick a piece to eat. Just as Xiao Ding bent down, he suddenly found a bracelet on the ground.
"There's actually a bracelet here?"
Curiosity drove Xiao Ding to pick it up and he found that it was just a silver bracelet, and it looked somewhat familiar.
The bracelet is round inside and out, but the shape of the bars varies from semicircular to arched, making it look very delicate. However, the bracelet fell to the ground and got a little dirty, with some weeds on it.
"Here is a bracelet." Xiao Ding came over and said, holding the silver bracelet in his hand.
Several of us gathered together immediately, looking at the bracelet in Xiao Ding's hand with frowns on our faces.
Jack looked at the bracelet, his index finger grasping his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face. After a while, he said, "Someone must have passed by here. I thought about it, and I don't think I've seen this bracelet on Jiang Lan and Jiang Chu. I wonder if you have seen it on them?"
The fat man immediately shook his head and said, "I really haven't seen it!"
I was the only one still in deep thought. They all focused their attention on me, hoping I would discover something. After all, if these bracelets were found on Jiang Lan or Jiang Chu, it would mean they had been here before, and that we were heading in the right direction.
After an unknown amount of time, I suddenly remembered where I had seen this bracelet before. I clenched my right fist and struck it against my left palm. Suddenly, I understood, and then I said happily, "I know where I've seen this bracelet before. It was on the black-clad man who abducted Jiang Chu."
Jack looked at each other for the last time and said, "Are you sure you really saw this bracelet appear on the man in black?"
I nodded confidently and said, "Yes, that's right. The man in black stretched out his hand and revealed the bracelet. The light just happened to shine on the bracelet, and I was blinded by the reflected light."
The fat man was the happiest because the man in black had captured Jiang Chu. The excitement in the fat man's eyes could not be concealed at all. In the end, it was only after I coughed that the fat man calmed down a little, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the joy emanating from him.
Seeing how happy we were, Xiao Ding also smiled foolishly.
But everyone soon calmed down. After all, this was just a clue. We hadn't seen the two of them yet, and we didn't know if they were really safe. It wouldn't be too late to be happy after seeing each other safe and sound.
I said, "It seems we are looking in the right direction!"
Fatty and Jack nodded in agreement and said, "Yeah, now we just need to see which direction this man in black goes."
Xiao Ding nodded and said, "I found this bracelet right here. Maybe there are footprints somewhere."
Under Xiao Ding's guidance, we indeed saw several footprints in the grass. It seemed that the bracelet fell off when the man in black left, and the extra footprints might have been left by Jiang Chu's struggle when he was captured!
Seeing Xiao Ding's discovery, I touched Xiao Ding's head happily. The discovery just now made us all forget what happened in the morning, and only the joy of finding Jiang Chu or Jiang Lan remained.
"Xiao Ding, well done. Thanks to your vision, we were able to find this place."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fatty and Jack nodded in agreement, their faces full of approval.
This was one of the few times that Xiao Ding praised me, and he felt embarrassed by my praise.
"Okay, let's go in this direction!"
At this time, Jack said this, and we nodded and walked in this direction.
As we moved forward, we followed the footprints. Although the footsteps were a bit messy, we could still tell that we were heading in that direction.
After passing through the forest, we soon came to the stream and the footprints began to disappear from that location.
Along the way, we didn't find any other clues except footprints.
I don’t know if it was because of the discovery of the clues, but the atmosphere on the road became very harmonious, and the joy on everyone’s face was very obvious.
