The flames spread into the cave, and a series of animal screams were heard.
Finally, a weasel with its back on fire ran out of the tree hole. It seemed that it wanted to escape through the bushes. Lu Hao quickly condensed a small fireball and hit it.
The fireball spread to the weasel's entire body. It screamed and finally stopped moving.
The weasel's yellow fur had been burned black, even revealing the burned skin underneath.
At this time, the faint fragrance just now also disappeared, and Tuhao Jin slowly woke up in Lu Hao's pocket. Lu Hao was afraid that Tuhao Jin would fall out while sleeping, so he stuffed it into his pocket.
Lu Hao squatted on the ground, looked at the dead weasel, sneered and said, "You're pretending pretty well."
He realized something was wrong the moment that "Su Jin" appeared, but he was worried that other people were also taken away by that "Su Jin", so he followed. It seems that now he is the only one brought here.
Tuhaojin jumped out of Lu Hao's pocket, looked around, and then stretched out its little hand to point Lu Hao in a direction. Lu Hao touched its head gently and walked towards the direction it pointed.
When passing by the tree hole just now, Lu Hao found that the area around the tree hole was full of white bones, and there were some flies flying above, emitting a foul odor...
These are probably the masterpieces of the mutated weasel just now. I didn’t expect that this mutated weasel has such abilities.
Following Tuhao Jin's route, Lu Hao indeed found a few people, but they all seemed to be still asleep, especially Lu Guanhai. It was unknown what he was dreaming about, but his legs were still running.
…
Su Jin thought he had returned to his previous life.
She saw that she was being plotted against by Chen Xiarong, but she didn't transform into a zombie, but simply stopped breathing... The next scene was Lu Hao holding his own body and leaving the laboratory. Behind him was a river of blood. His eyes were lowered, but Su Jin could still see his bloodshot eyes and trembling lips...
This was the first time she had seen Lu Hao like this. She wanted to hug him, but she couldn't move at all. She could only watch his lonely figure holding her body as he walked out of her sight step by step... She wanted to scream but couldn't.
"Xiao Jin, Xiao Jin?"
A familiar voice rang in her ears, and Su Jin opened her eyes suddenly. She saw Lu Hao looking at her worriedly. She looked around again and realized that it was just a dream. It was just that this dream was too real, so real that she was about to suffocate.
"Are you having a nightmare?" Lu Hao gently held her in his arms and patted her back lightly to calm her down as soon as possible.
She hugged Lu Hao tightly. After going through the scene in her dream, she still felt scared when she saw the healthy Lu Hao in front of her.
At this moment, she heard Lu Guanhai's voice coming from the side, and Lu Guanhai kept saying: "I'm scared to death"
"Did Old Lu also have a nightmare?" Su Xiangzhe asked.
"Yes, I dreamed that Liu Meifang was chasing me and she said she wanted to remarry me." Lu Guanhai patted his chest. This dream was so terrible.
"Who is Liu Meifang?" Nie Qing asked.
"His ex-wife," Su Xiangzhe answered with a wry smile. Not to mention Lu Guanhai, he had just had a nightmare in which he and Lin Tianhui turned into zombies, which frightened him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Me too, I had a nightmare too. I dreamed that I was taking the college entrance exam, and I couldn't answer a single question!"
Lin Xiuyuan also ran over and squatted beside him, dejectedly saying, "That dream was so scary."
"But why are we all sleeping here?"
Huang Yunxiang pointed out the key point. Although she also had nightmares, they were all dreams about working hard at home when she was a child. They were not scary at all.
"It's its fault," Lu Hao said and threw the weasel to the ground.
"What's this?"
Su Jin asked as he looked at the unidentified object on the ground that had been burned into charcoal, although it was still vaguely visible that it was an animal.
"Mutated Weasel" Lu Hao told everyone what had just happened to him, and they suddenly understood.
The weasel, commonly known as the yellow weasel, has been mentioned in folk tales as a creature that can attach itself to people. The elders in the family would often tell people not to be bewitched by the yellow weasel. Unexpectedly, they encountered one this time, and it was a mutated weasel that could even create confusing illusions!
This mutant weasel should first emit a smell that can confuse its prey, causing it to fall into a state of unconsciousness, then trick it into its tree hole and eat it.
But today it seemed to have chosen the wrong target to attack first, intending to start with Lu Hao. As a result, Lu Hao was the first to see through the illusion it created.
"You mean he turned into an identical Xiao Jin?" Su Xiangzhe asked in disbelief.
This wasn't a mutated weasel anymore; it was a weasel spirit, wasn't it? It could even transform into a human form. If it were him, he might have been fooled.
"Then when did you find out it wasn't mine?" Su Jin asked curiously.
First Look
Lu Hao didn't say much, but he really realized at first sight that it was not Su Jin, not only because of the expression and behavior, but also because of the sentence it said: I have been waiting for you for a long time.
The real Su Jin knew Lu Hao's situation and would not let him look for her. And most importantly, the smell of that "Su Jin" was not the smell of his Su Jin.
"Let's get out of here quickly..."
Lin Xiuyuan touched his arm and felt that this place was becoming more and more weird.
After storing the animal core in the burnt weasel's head into the space, the few of them left.
As Lu Guanhai came down the mountain, he asked Nie Qing, "What did you dream about?"
Nie Qing smiled but didn't answer. He did dream, but he didn't dream of anything terrible. He just dreamed that he was back in his old place. It was just him and Xiaofen there. It had been the same for ten years. Apart from the unchanging life, he felt quite lonely...
Although the way down the mountain was not easy to walk on, the few of them still reached the foot of the mountain before dark. During this period, they took advantage of the rest time to set up two soul gathering arrays. Su Jin directly collected the corpses of the mutant beasts into the space.
Looking at the sun that was about to set, Su Jin felt that no matter how hard they hurried, they would not be able to get back to the base today, so he planned to continue resting in the space tonight and go back early tomorrow morning.
Several people agreed. They were tired after hunting and having nightmares all day, so they planned to go into the space and have a good rest for a while.
So a few people found a hidden bush at the foot of the mountain before they got out and entered the space.
