[That's so hard! Number 3 should just get some rest! Can't number 1 go alone?]
[Could this terrifying existence be something No. 3 fabricated? Could it be to scare us?!]
Is he sick? Just to scare us, he's hiding like a chased dog?!
No. 3 sprained his leg. Even though the two of them were extremely anxious and wished they could grow wings and fly to the vicinity of the house, they simply couldn't run any faster.
At the same time, the group of people who were caught in the house were also taking action.
They secretly got a lot of firewood and moved it to the yard.
Lu Yunxi: ? ?
What is this for?
Being confused by the people on both sides, her annoyance seemed to subside a lot, and she observed with great interest.
No. 3 held onto the trunk of a thick tree, breathing slightly and wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Let's go, let's keep going." He glanced around, his expression slightly serious. "If you run into any danger later, just run away! Don't worry about me! Got it?"
Number 1 was a little scared. He looked around and subconsciously moved closer to him: "Brother, if there is any danger, can't we just leave now? Didn't you say we can ask someone to help investigate?"
Number 3 waved his hand. "If that terrifying being isn't here, we naturally don't need to invite outsiders to investigate! The reason we invited outsiders was to block that being... Anyway, I'm just worried about what might happen. What if that terrifying being is just taking a nap or going to the bathroom? Anyway, if I tell you to run, you run!"
Looking at his tightly pursed lips and serious eyes, No. 1 nodded seriously.
[So depressing! Actually, I've seen No. 3 as a mecha warrior, and he's always been very confident and outgoing. He's never been this nervous!]
[I also think that No. 3 has no reason to lie! There must really be a dangerous creature nearby!]
[Strange! I just looked at the screen and it seemed like someone ran past me! Is it my imagination?]
[I saw it too! But it's blurry, I can't make out what it is. It's so small... I wonder if it's some kind of animal! Is it that terrifying creature from legend?!]
Number 1 and Number 3 happened to be talking and did not notice the figure that flashed by not far away.
The closer they got to the house, the calmer No. 3's expression became, but his eyes became sharper and sharper, like an eagle's.
With the help of the nearby grass and trees, the two men came to the closed wall behind the house in a covert manner.
Other people's houses usually have a front door, a side door and a back door, but this house is unique. It only has a front door, and the three surrounding walls are sealed.
But this also made it easier for them to run in.
No. 3 let No. 1 step on his shoulders, turned over and jumped onto the low wall of the house, and then let him pull him up.
The two of them jumped down the low wall with difficulty.
Surprisingly, landing was not as difficult as they had imagined, as if the wall was only less than waist-high.
The two looked at each other and then down.
In the backyard, the ground was piled high with firewood, which was neatly arranged with almost no gaps between them.
"So this is where firewood is stored. No wonder it was so easy for Tiao to jump down." No. 1 breathed a sigh of relief and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
However, No. 3 frowned. "Something's not right! I've seen ancient houses. Firewood was either stored in the woodshed or piled in the corner of the yard, not like it is now..."
The firewood on the ground was like paving a road, covering the entire yard!
Although he felt something was wrong, he couldn't figure out what was going on.
At this moment, a thick smoke suddenly came out.
Before they could figure out what was going on, the wind blew and the thick smoke enveloped the two of them.
“Ahem…”
When the two of them were talking just now, they were careful to lower their voices. However, now they were choked by the thick smoke, and no matter how hard they tried to hold it back, the itchiness in their throats still surged up in waves.
The two of them coughed violently.
No. 3 tried to open his eyes, but the thick smoke made him cry.
He was filled with hatred and said intermittently: "Run, run! Ahem... We've fallen into a trap! Damn it..."
As he spoke, he pushed No. 1, signaling him to quickly climb over the wall and escape.
Number 1 was pushed and almost hit the wall.
He wanted to open his eyes in pain, but the irritation made tears and snot flow together, and he looked much more miserable than No. 3.
[Nah! I just accidentally activated my five senses! I'm still coughing! Cough cough...]
"Actually... I think the anchor is pretty miserable! They finally made it here, only to find out it was a trap! The person who set the trap must be laughing at them outside, right?!"
[I've already said Number 3 is an idiot! He even said the people living in this house might be from the previous expedition team! Hilarious!]
[I just saw someone climbing over the wall! They must have been the ones who set the trap! Damn it! They actually got away!]
Number 3 and Number 1 covered their eyes with their arms with great difficulty and ran a little further. When they felt the smoke was not so thick, they took a peek and ran a little further...
Just like that, they finally arrived at the main entrance.
The house was very quiet at this time, with no one in it. The latch of the main gate was open, but the door was closed.
If they want to get out, they have to step over the flames at the door and open the door before they can run out!
In the entire house, only the pile of firewood at the door was dry and the flames were burning fiercely, while the firewood around it was wet and the smoke was getting thicker and thicker.
