Qiuqiu tilted his head to the other side, pretending to be looking at the scenery.
He blew a whistle to avoid Bai Yinglin's questioning.
Bai Yinglin noticed that something was wrong with Qiuqiu. Its strange behavior and guilty look made Bai Yinglin want to laugh.
"Okay, I'm not going to laugh with you anymore. We've been walking for a long time, and I don't know if there's anything special. I didn't see anything."
Bai Yinglin said.
Everything here is so similar and quiet, with no sign of any living thing.
The weird atmosphere here made Bai Yinglin unconsciously alert. She only brought one hairpin when she came out, so now Bai Yinglin held her hairpin tightly.
Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression was always focused on some places where there was little movement.
"Master, do you also think it's unusually quiet here?" Qiuqiu hugged Bai Yinglin's shoulders tightly with his claws, and his pair of obsidian eyes kept scanning around the forest.
Bai Yinglin replied: "Yes."
Their feelings were not wrong, because it was indeed very unusual here. Every leaf seemed to be randomly resting. From time to time, there were rustling sounds in the forest, sometimes quiet, sometimes moving. This made people feel very uncomfortable. When they heard such sounds, they shivered involuntarily.
Such sparse and intermittent sounds vaguely reached the ears of Bai Yinglin and Qiuqiu.
"Master, did you hear any sound?"
Qiuqiu asked a little fearfully.
Only a spirit beast of a higher level than oneself would make one unable to detect its breath. Judging from the current strange atmosphere, this is probably the case.
The fact that I can perceive or feel its existence only means that the thing is only about one level higher than my level.
This made Qiuqiu feel fortunate. After all, it must be rare to see someone like him in this state. But now he might be particularly timid. If his master looked down upon him, he would be in trouble.
Qiuqiu is usually worried about the level and strength of the spirit beast, and is usually worried that he might be looked down upon by his master. Both of these are fatal to Qiuqiu.
There is nothing I can do now, I can only pray that the thing is not too strong. If it is too strong, even if Tangyuan and I join forces, we may not be able to defeat it.
Bai Yinglin was very frightened and uneasy at the moment. She was very excited at the beginning, but now she was so timid.
Because of her emotions, she was unable to feel anything abnormal about the ball. Bai Yinglin stood where she was, trying her best to keep her body still.
The purpose is to be able to hear the strange sound more clearly. Although I am not sure what it is, it will be better for me to pay attention.
Qiuqiu saw that Bai Yinglin had quietly started to pay attention to everything around her, so he naturally couldn't slack off. If he accidentally disturbed her and got distracted, that situation would be really bad for him.
There was a rustling sound coming from the branches above Bai Yinglin's head. She didn't know what it was, but when she heard the faint hissing sound, Bai Yinglin felt that something was wrong.
After all, this voice is too familiar, exactly the same as what I imagined in my mind.
Her neck immediately stiffened in place. Qiuqiu felt a chill coming towards her and put her head on Bai Yinglin's shoulder.
"Qiuqiu, can you feel what that thing is?" Bai Yinglin lowered her voice very softly. In this situation, she couldn't let things become too complicated.
Based on the sound, it is completely possible to identify that the thing is a snake.
If it was an ordinary snake, it would be fine, but if it was a poisonous snake or something like that, there was a high possibility that he would die.
What's more, if this thing is a snake-like spirit beast, it will be even more difficult to deal with it.
"Master... Master... Master, I can't sense its aura at all. It must be a level five spirit beast."
Qiuqiu's claws tightly grasped Bai Yinglin's arm, his body kept shaking, and every hair was trembling.
Only then did Bai Yinglin notice that Qiuqiu's body had begun to tremble constantly, which was a sign of fear.
It's over. Qiuqiu is also a coward. Doesn't that mean I have to be with this coward... Ugh?
Oh my God, I can't just die like this. Based on what I know about snakes, I'm afraid this thing won't hurt someone who can't move.
Bai Yinglin slowly brought her feet together, and to ensure that her movements were not too big, she tried her best to steady her body.
"Qiuqiu, you said I won't move, so my myopic person won't be able to see me?" Bai Yinglin asked in a very soft voice. She held her teeth and made this sound with her weak breath.
"Master...I...think it's impossible."
The sound was getting closer, and the rustling sound made Bai Yinglin's scalp tingle.
"It's over, it's coming." Several rows of dense beads of sweat appeared on Bai Yinglin's forehead.
"Master, let's run."
"That makes sense. Of the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one."
"Ball, I'll count to one, two, three, and then we'll run."
They did not look back, their minds were highly focused on the moment. The surroundings were quiet and empty, only the rustling sound was getting closer to them.
Bai Yinglin's skin was tense at this moment.
Qiuqiu swallowed hard and then began to speak:
"one……"
"two……"
"Three... run!"
The moment the sound of the ball rang out, Bai Yinglin immediately raised her foot and rushed forward. She didn't dare to look back and went straight to the front of the forest.
The snake probably noticed the huge noise Bai Yinglin made when she escaped.
It suddenly slid from the branch to the ground, and crawled its body along the dead leaves. Although the arc of the crawl was not large, it was obvious that its speed was extremely high.
The snake's body is not big and not long. The scales on its body are silver. If you look closely, you can see a continuous gradient of seven colors on the edges of the scales. It is an extremely beautiful little snake.
There is a diamond-shaped ruby totem symbol on the forehead of the little snake. Through the outside of the totem, you can see the exquisite pattern inside, although the origin of this pattern is currently unknown.
The little snake spit out its tongue, and the hissing sound came into Bai Yinglin's ears sporadically.
When Bai Yinglin heard the voice, she frowned, but she still did not stop, even though her speed had slowed down a little at this moment.
But because of her instinct for survival, she continued to run forward.
