Chapter 134 Night Walk
"Dad, Mom, don't worry now!"
After Ding Xiaodie and her family of three left the Yangliu Town gate, three heads popped out from a low wall not far away in the city.
After sending Ding Hao home, Ding Rong took his wife and daughter to lie in ambush here secretly. Although they left the Lu family, Ding Gui's family stayed behind.
This made him panic. He was afraid that Ding Gui would find out something and tell Master Lu, and that it would be their family that would be driven out of Yangliu Town. That would be the end of them.
Fortunately, hard work pays off and I finally saw Ding Gui and his family leaving the city.
"Damn it, we finally got rid of them this time!" A triumphant smile appeared on Ding Rong's face. He believed that as long as Ding Gui's family left the city, they would sooner or later die at the hands of the desert soldiers. Even if they didn't encounter the desert soldiers, they would surely die due to lack of food and water along the way.
Mrs. Zhu smiled even more brightly: "Now that the eldest young master of the Lu family has returned, without that damned girl Ding Xiaodie messing things up, Ah Xue and the eldest young master will definitely be together sooner or later."
"Mom!" Ding Xue looked shy.
Unexpectedly, just when the three of them were feeling proud, suddenly a few small stones were thrown from somewhere, and there were three slight impact sounds.
A thin layer of dust was seen on their backs. When Ding Rong and his family reacted, they found that they were completely unable to move.
What is going on?
Ding Rong was so frightened that he could not move his hands and feet, his body, or even his eyeballs. He looked at his wife with horror. Similarly, Zhu looked at him with her eyes slanted, and her look was as terrifying as it could be.
If he could make a sound, Ding Rong would probably scream out "Oh my god!"
It was a pity that he couldn't even make a sound. Forget it, he turned his gaze to his daughter. It was almost the same. Fortunately, Ding Xue was just looking ahead in confusion and panic.
The three members of Ding Rong's family were inexplicably acupunctured from a distance.
In the darkness, a black shadow quietly left and chased after the two figures in front.
"Guardian Geng, what's going on?"
Lu Chenhe asked the latecomers with some concern, when they came out, Guardian Geng said that he heard some noise and wanted to go and check it out, but he didn't expect that they would catch up with him in a short while.
Mr. Lu also looked at him: "Is there anyone here?"
Guardian Geng replied in a low voice: "It's just a few villagers, Master, don't worry."
He heard the noise and went to check it out. It turned out to be Ding Rong's family. Because his family had always done things so unexpectedly recently, Guardian Geng remembered them the most.
Unexpectedly, after listening carefully, he found out that they were targeting the eldest young master. The more Guardian Geng listened, the more unhappy he became, so he pressed their acupoints.
Just let them stand there!
However, it was not appropriate to explain it in detail to the master and the young master at this time, so he had to say that he was a villager.
Mr. Lu and Lu Chenhe didn't think much about it. After all, the most important thing at the moment was to secretly protect Ding Xiaodie's family.
At the same time, Ding Xiaodie and her family of three quietly sneaked into the woods by the roadside.
Although they were setting off at night, they were worried about encountering desert soldiers on the road. Ding Xiaodie suggested walking into the woods near the roadside. Although walking would be more difficult, it was at least a way to hide in the dark.
As they walked, they looked carefully at the road, hoping to find the old woman.
Overhead, an unknown bird flew by, making a strange cry.
Zhang Xiu shrank back in fear: "What is that? It sounds like a crow."
"Many birds became extinct by the 21st century, and we have never even seen some of the birds we have today," Ding Xiaodie said in a low voice.
Ding Gui said, "It would be great if we could kill one. I haven't eaten meat for several days!"
"Dad, Mom, why do I feel something is wrong?" After walking about two or three kilometers, Ding Xiaodie felt more and more like she was being watched.
Following her criminal police instinct, she looked back at the dark forest, which seemed like an unfathomable abyss, making her feel a chill on her back.
Hearing his daughter say this, Ding Gui's face tensed. In fact, he was a little nervous in his heart, but he didn't want to cause psychological burden to his daughter-in-law and daughter in front of them.
"It's okay, don't think about it, and don't look back."
Sometimes when a person is scared, he will instinctively look back, but the more he looks, the more scared and anxious he becomes.
Zhang Xiu's voice trembled a little: "Xiao Die, what's wrong? Did you see something?"
Ding Xiaodie looked mysterious: "Why do I feel like someone is following us?"
Ding Gui and his wife were immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat: "..."
Mr. Lu and the other two who were following not far behind them were all frowning: "..." This girl is too smart, she is not simple!
After a pause, Ding Gui said, "Don't make any noise, let's hide for a while and see what's going on."
Zhang Xiu grabbed her daughter's hand and clenched the edge of Ding Gui's clothes with her other hand. She was so scared that her teeth were chattering and she couldn't even speak clearly.
Just like that, the family of three quickly squatted behind a big tree and looked nervously at something not far away...
Black, complete darkness.
There was silence in the darkness, and the sultry wind gently shook the branches, as if it was a person, no... it was a group of silent people.
Oh my god, this is too scary.
Although Ding Gui and Zhang Xiu are adults, they grew up in the city in their previous life. They have never even experienced camping, so how could they have the experience of looking for someone in the forest in the middle of the night?
What's more, in order to avoid the desert soldiers, they couldn't even use a fire starter and could only rely on their feelings to move forward.
Now, I feel a chill on my back.
On the surface, Ding Xiaodie seemed relatively calm. After all, she had been to many murder scenes when she was a criminal police officer. But the current situation was quite serious, and a thin layer of sweat formed on the palms of her hands.
Mr. Lu and the other two: "..."
People who practice martial arts have always trained their eyesight, so they can see farther than ordinary people at night. And with the help of moonlight, they can naturally see Ding Xiaodie and her family hiding behind the big tree.
Seeing this scene, the two elders were speechless, while Lu Chenhe couldn't help laughing.
At this moment, a gibberish sound suddenly rang out, like a man humming a song, but the tone was strange and the words were not Chinese.
Desert soldiers!
Everyone immediately thought of this word and held their breath.
It turned out that the man came here to pee, and he was humming as he went.
Because they were not far from Ding Xiaodie and the others, Lu Chenhe couldn't help but want to take action, but was stopped by his father. Mr. Lu shook his hand and signaled him to calm down.
The Desert Soldier cannot be alone, he must have other companions.
Sure enough, after a while, over a small hill, there was a desert man chattering. The humming desert soldier responded and turned to walk towards him.
After he left, Ding Xiaodie and her family of three quietly followed him...
