Chapter 590 595. Forest Ghost Fire
Qiao Meili mustered up the courage to walk out, taking each step very carefully. Because of the blazing fire, she was not so scared. She walked behind a rock and saw that Bai Qi was not looking at her at all, so she squatted down with relief.
After relieving herself happily, Qiao Meili couldn't fall asleep, so she walked to the fire and sat down. Her eyes somehow turned to Qiao Mansi who was meditating. Ever since she knew that Qiao Mansi was a mermaid, she didn't know why, but she always took the lead in isolating and bullying her.
Sometimes she wondered why Qiao Zixi was so lucky. She was surrounded by so many people who truly submitted to her and treated her as a friend, even a family member. She really envied this kind of relationship. More often than not, she wondered, if she could become as strong as Qiao Zixi, would she also have true friends?
But she couldn't figure out how Qiao Zixi had become so strong. Every time there was danger, she would immediately observe Qiao Zixi, but she rarely took action, often letting those around her do the fighting. This left Qiao Meili, eager to uncover Qiao Zixi's secrets, with no opportunity to exploit.
Qiao Meili lowered her head and fell into deep thought. Bai Qi occasionally looked up and glanced around, and then concentrated on protecting Qiao Manxi. Somehow, Qiao Meili, who was sitting by the fire, suddenly felt the night wind blowing and it was getting colder and colder.
Finally, feeling the cold could not stand any longer, Qiao Meili stood up and planned to go back to the tent. She looked up at the dark mountains in the distance, and suddenly saw a little firelight jumping among the mountains and forests, which flashed by and disappeared again. Qiao Meili thought she was dazzled, so she did not care. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a little firelight again, and then, little by little, it soon turned into stars.
Qiao Meili was so frightened that she was stunned. This scene really looked like the legendary ghost fire, floating around. She shuddered suddenly and screamed in fear.
"There's a ghost!"
"Ah! Ugh!"
Qiao Meili was so scared that she rushed into the tent. In her panic, she didn't know who she stepped on and screamed in pain.
Everyone was awakened by Qiao Meili's shout, and they all jumped up and rushed out of the tent. At this time, Qiao Manxi and Bai Qi had already discovered the sparks on the distant mountains.
Qiao Mansi looked at the frightened Qiao Meili with disgust. Fortunately, she had just completed one cycle, otherwise her earth-shattering shout would have scared her to death.
Han Yixiao looked at the sparks, his eyes couldn't help but darken. As a completely ancient man, Xiao Zeli's first reaction when he saw this situation was to think that it was a ghost fire.
At this time, a gust of wind blew over, and the sparks that looked like ghost fire floated over the mountains and forests and drifted towards this side.
"Could it really be a will-o'-the-wisp? Is this haunted?"
"There are no ghosts in this world. Don't scare me."
"It really doesn't look like it has legs, it's just floating."
"A ghost?"
"Put up the tent first. If this thing catches fire, it will be a huge loss."
Yu Zhiming, Tian Yuanyuan, Lin Shishi and others quickly took down the tent and put it into the space. Everyone took away their bedding. Qiao Zixi sat by the fire holding the sleeping little Qiao Qiao wrapped in a thick quilt and added a lot of fuel to the fire.
Everyone had their backs to her, staring unblinkingly at Starfire as it got closer and closer to them.
