Yu Fuling and Sailulu hadn't reacted yet, but Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian were practically terrified. Although they had fought ghosts and monsters many times before, they had never experienced close combat with a wild beast. Obviously, exorcism talismans and the like wouldn't be of any use in that situation...
Seeing this, Shen Yuan immediately patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Jiujiu, I will protect Jiujiu."
Tang Mianmian: "...Wuwuwu, what about me?"
Shen Yuan glanced at Tang Mianmian silently, then pulled Xiao Tangqiu over and said, "Go find Duan Hongzhen."
Duan Hongzhen, who was walking in front, immediately said with a smile: "I don't want to protect the weak."
Tang Mianmian rolled her eyes and shrank towards Xiao Tangqiu again.
"Speaking of which, those newcomers behind us...are we just going to let them follow like this?" Xiao Tangqiu asked Xue Junli.
Xue Junli said calmly: "Let them follow us. As long as they don't disturb us, it doesn't matter."
The two of them, who had experienced several copies, were a little scared, and the dozen or so newcomers who followed behind were trembling with fear. They wished they could hug each other and stay still, but of course they didn't dare to really stay still. Who knew if some wild beast or even a monster would rush out from the fog on the mountain and tear them to pieces in the next second!
Xiao Tangqiu originally thought that Xue Junli was a cold-hearted and genius hacker, but he didn't expect that this guy was quite patient with newcomers. But it made sense. Although most of the players on the Abyss Forum were old players exchanging experiences, new players who had just entered the Abyss City could obviously benefit more. Perhaps this was one of the original intentions of Xue Junli to establish the Abyss Forum.
This guy might not be as ruthless as he imagined.
Just as Xiao Tangqiu was thinking this, Yu Fuling's expression suddenly changed: "There's someone in the fog!"
Is there anyone in the fog?
Yu Fuling's cry immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone subconsciously looked towards the top of the mountain. In the vast expanse of white, everything was blurry and nothing could be seen clearly.
"Where are the people? Are you dazzled?" The man who had questioned Xue Junli was the first to jump out. "Do you think we'll believe your lies just because you scare us like this?"
The other newcomers also became skeptical. After all, they didn’t see anyone in the fog. Who knew if this woman said that on purpose to scare them?
Yu Fuling sneered: "Believe it or not, I'm not telling you this anyway."
Xiao Tangqiu also stretched his neck and looked for a long time. He also did not see any human figure in the fog. However, he had seen Yu Fuling's abilities a long time ago and knew that Yu Fuling was very good at this. Naturally, he would not doubt Yu Fuling like those newcomers.
Xue Junli asked directly: "Are you sure it's a human? Not a ghost?"
Yu Fuling nodded: "At least not yet."
After hearing their conversation, the man snorted coldly: "Even the ghosts have appeared, how else do you want to scare us? Will there be more ghosts next?"
Although this guy has been arguing with them, Xiao Tangqiu didn't expect that he would really win the argument. Next, they are likely to encounter ghosts of all kinds... After all, this copy is called the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts. Even if there are not actually as exaggerated as a hundred ghosts, it is probably close.
Yu Fuling and the others ignored the man, but Duan Hongzhen asked with great interest, "Where is it? Why don't we go and take a look?"
Yu Fuling subconsciously looked at Shen Yuan: "Brother Shen, should we go and take a look?"
Shen Yuan looked at Xiao Tangqiu: "Jiujiu, do you want to go take a look?"
Xiao Tangqiu silently glanced at Shen Yuan, then glanced at the unhappy Yu Fuling, and said weakly, "Then go..."
Shen Yuan nodded: "Then go."
Yu Fuling: “…”
What the hell was this? Their beloved captain had become a mere mouthpiece?!
...But the person who is carrying the message is actually quite happy!
Xue Junli made a prompt decision and said, "Let's go and take a look."
"Hey! Don't think you can scare us like this!"
Xue Junli and others ignored the provocation of the newcomer, turned around and followed Yu Fuling to walk up the mountain. The dozen or so newcomers suddenly became hesitant. Should they continue to follow Yu Fuling, or stay, or simply find another way out?
Xue Junli and his team naturally didn't care about the dilemma of this group of newcomers. They only had one thought in mind - to find the "person" hiding in the fog.
Everyone followed Yu Fuling and climbed up a low hill. Just as they reached halfway up the hill, the fog around them became visibly thicker.
"It's such a thick fog, visibility is too low." Duan Hongzhen sighed.
Xiao Tangqiu quickly took out his nuclear flashlight and continued to play his role of lighting. With the light of the flashlight, they were finally able to see the road ahead clearly.
This small hill seems to be a barren mountain. Although it is covered with weeds, there are no plants growing on it. Perhaps because it is rarely visited, the weeds are almost half a person's height.
Guided by the flashlight, they struggled through the half-human-high weeds and followed Yu Fuling to the place she was looking for.
"arrive."
"Is this the place?" Xiao Tangqiu looked around with a flashlight, "But there's nothing here..."
Not to mention people, there wasn't even a ghost, only weeds all over the mountains.
Yu Fuling frowned slightly: "This shouldn't be..."
At this moment, Shen Yuan suddenly narrowed his eyes: "There."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone subconsciously rushed in the direction of his sight. It turned out that there was a huge rock in their blind spot, and behind this huge rock, there was actually a hunchbacked, white-haired old woman!
The old woman was very thin, almost unrecognizable. Her limbs were as thin as a skeleton, her hands and feet were like bones covered with a layer of wrinkled skin, and her face was covered with wrinkles like orange peel.
Her hair had turned completely white, her back was severely hunched, and her clothes were rough and torn, barely covering her body. This made her curl up and shiver in the cold mountain breeze at night.
