When traveling in the mountains and forests at night, you are likely to be attacked by a kind of flying carnivorous bird in the sky.
They rested for the night in a cave in the swamp.
Lin She was on guard duty, Gu Huaiwei fell asleep soundly, but Xiling Ling couldn't sleep in this environment. She forced herself to stay awake all night, and the next day she had two panda eyes.
At night, the caves in the swamp are cold and gloomy.
The forest snake made a fire for them.
He added wood to the fire and stayed there all night.
As the morning light brightened, Gu Huaiwei stretched lazily and got up from the ground. She packed her things and prepared to leave. Lin She pointed her to a long way.
That road will pass through Bai Meemie's territory.
"Miss Gu, Bai Meimei's father is a butcher. Don't be deceived by her appearance." Lin She did not forget to expose Bai Meimei's true face before Gu Huaiwei left. "If she invites you to visit her secret room, don't go in. It's full of her evil intentions, and you won't like it."
He said a lot of bad things about Bai Meemie.
After leaving the swamp, Xiling Ling dared to tell Gu Huaiwei: "Miss Gu, when you were bandaging his wound yesterday, the look on his face was so scary.
Based on my many years of experience as a leader, that look was definitely not one of gratitude.
You see, his last words were to let us go, which shows that from the beginning, he wanted to do something bad to us."
"I know." Gu Huaiwei spoke in a relaxed tone, as if discussing what to eat today. She shrugged nonchalantly, "Actually, when they were assistants, they would occasionally show such looks. I'm used to it."
Her five senses are so sharp that she can certainly detect the danger.
"Huh?" Now it was Xiling Ling's turn to be surprised. "Then why didn't you react? And you even dared to stay there overnight."
Gu Huaiwei was just playing dumb out of habit.
If you turn a blind eye, you can avoid a lot of trouble.
Anyway, according to Gu Huaiwei's understanding, Lin She would not play any tricks for the time being, so she was not in a hurry to travel. She stayed there to rest for a night and set off again with full energy the next day.
"He doesn't have a procrastination problem. If he could have taken action, he would have done it long ago. He just asked me to come back after I went to the castle. This means that he can't use tough measures before I go to the castle." Gu Huaiwei has been with Lin She for a long time. She knows his habits too well. "The wounds on his body were caused by the boss of the castle. Guess why the boss beat him up?"
"They clashed." Xiling Ling couldn't guess, and she quickly denied her previous answer. "No, the castle administrator's status is higher than those beasts outside. A conflict would not benefit him."
Xiling Ling continued to analyze: "When we left the haunted house earlier, that toad-like monster also wanted to keep you.
But then the old woman appeared and forbade that weirdo from blocking your path to the castle. She taught the monster a lesson... So, you have to go to the castle and see the paradise's supervisor first before the monster can attack you?"
Xiling Ling's thoughts are very similar to Gu Huaiwei's.
Gu Huaiwei glanced at her approvingly. "Although he didn't say it, I suspect that if I go to the castle and fail to meet certain conditions, I'll be abandoned by the supervisors and become like you, the victim of the wild beasts in the paradise."
This is what Lin She and the others said, the choice has always been in her hands.
In the small plane, there are too many plane operators who have been abandoned by the paradise.
Even if Gu Huaiwei completed all the plane management tasks, lit up the lights on the Ferris wheel, and opened the gates of the park, she did not think she was that special.
"But everything you have was given by Paradise. What else does Paradise want from you? Why does Paradise have to ask you to nod your head on your own initiative instead of forcing you to agree?" Xiling Ling felt that her head was full of tangled threads.
"If you can't figure it out, stop thinking about it. Go to the castle and you will find the answer to everything."
"Aren't you afraid of the unknown?" Xiling Ling felt that even though Gu Huaiwei was in a dangerous environment, she still had a sense of relaxation.
Perhaps that is not relaxation, but an awareness of facing death.
“No one can accurately predict the future; the future is unknown.”
"There has to be some certainty."
Gu Huaiwei tilted her head and asked her, "If something is important, why don't you do it if you're not sure?"
"This..." Xiling Ling sighed, "You are right, right?"
Just like Xiling Ling was not sure about leaving the paradise. It was obvious that the closer she went to the castle, the more dangerous it would be, but she still had to go there. She did this just for a little unknown hope.
After leaving the swamp, they found a man-made asphalt road that was drivable by vehicles. At the end of the road, they led directly to a small mountain villa with lights on.
There are Christmas lights hanging at the door of the villa.
At the door, a singing doll was placed on a bamboo chair that was swaying in the wind.
As they approached the villa, the curtains that were originally open were suddenly drawn.
"We won't stay here tonight." Gu Huaiwei wanted to set off under the cover of night.
As for those annoying meat birds at night, just kill them one by one when you see them.
"Hmm." Xiling Ling also felt that there was something strange about this villa. She was about to leave with Gu Huaiwei when she suddenly saw the work uniforms of Xiyuan Group hanging on the clothes hanger next to the villa.
She stopped immediately.
Their employee uniforms all have their employees' names embroidered on them.
"Ms. Gu, wait a moment, I'll go over and take a look." Xiling Ling tiptoed over the fence, then stood on tiptoe to look at the embroidery on the employee uniforms.
The names above are the friends who were sent into paradise with her as sacrifices.
She came back somewhat dazed, and after hesitating for a moment, she said, "Miss Gu, I'm sorry, my friend might still be alive. I have to go into this villa to take a look."
"You don't have to apologize to me. I wish you all the best. Goodbye." Gu Huaiwei said goodbye without any persuasion and turned to leave.
Xiling Ling looked at Gu Huaiwei's back as she left without any regrets with a complicated expression.
