"This princess will not regret it." Xuan You Ran's face suddenly changed, and he was unwilling to admit his fear.
Chu Dai spread out his hands, completely convinced, and said: "Okay, okay, anyway, you're the best. Hurry up and shut up, and keep quiet.
Xuan You Ran wanted to continue arguing, but Chu Wuwei didn't give her the chance to do so. No matter what she said, he wouldn't utter a single word, maintaining an attitude of not participating in the evaluation.
After trekking for nearly two hours, Chu Gong suddenly raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop.
"It's getting dark now, and it's going to be dark soon. Also, I saw the enemy's traces extend towards that direction. Look, they have no way out, so they should have found a cave or something and temporarily set up camp." We'll keep quiet and wait until it gets dark. "
Chu Dai lowered his voice and everyone hid where they were, quickly concealing their tracks. With the cover of the leaves, if they were not careful, it would be hard to find them.
The night gradually grew darker, and the curtains of the night gradually began to fall. The night in the mountains arrived especially quickly. After a while, it became completely dark.
"Let's eat some dry food. We'll be taking action soon."
Chu Tian ordered. There was a rustling sound in the night.
Thinking that everyone had finished eating, Chu Yuan said, "From the fire search, the raiders definitely wouldn't have expected that we had already arrived. The moment we discover the fire, we'll quietly approach them and, upon hearing my orders, we'll immediately attack together and quickly end the battle."
Not far from them, the ground was slightly lower, so it naturally formed a shallow depression in the ground.
Within the depression, a small fire illuminated a part of the night, lighting up the surroundings. However, because of the terrain, the light could not leak out.
According to the Military Advisor, it was impossible to start a fire, as it would make it easier to attract pursuers. However, there were too many mosquitoes in the mountain forest. If he did not start a fire, it would be too difficult to endure. Thus, he could only pick up some dried branches and start a small fire. Using the momentum of the ground to obstruct him, it was unlikely that he would be discovered.
The few of them ate their rations under the light of the fire without saying a word. If they made a sound at night, it would be very easy for the location to be exposed.
The five of them took turns to change shifts and keep an eye out for anyone not far from the bonfire. If anyone came, they would quickly issue a warning. Thirteen was on the tail.
He crouched in the night, vigilantly looking into the distance, paying attention to all the changes around him.
Although he couldn't see anything clearly in the night, his ears were much sharper at this time. Even the slightest sound from his surroundings could not escape his ears.
The night was quiet, and everything was normal.
However, at one point, he suddenly heard something, a soft rustling sound.
Thirteen immediately became alert and looked towards the source of the voice. However, the voice suddenly disappeared. After a long time, there was no response.
He could not help but heave a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was just a passerby of the original inhabitants of a certain forest. Perhaps he had been wearing a robe all this time, or perhaps he was a hare.
But as long as it wasn't an enemy …
Thirteen's tensed nerves relaxed as he wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. He was truly shocked a moment ago.
After listening in the darkness for a while, a rustling sound could be heard from the other direction, but it was the same as before. It was light and fast, more like the sudden appearance and departure of an animal.
"Damn, these little things were indeed roasted and eaten by hunters." Thirteen cursed in a low voice. He felt like he was going crazy.
"It's too big, it's not easy to roast."
Just as he finished swearing, he heard a voice that was very, very soft, as if it was whispering something to him.
Thirteen was startled. He thought that an enemy had arrived, but then he realized that if there was an enemy, it would be impossible for them to come to his side without him noticing. If he was right, someone was here to change shifts, so he joked in a low voice, "There's always a barbecue."
As he said that, he turned his head, but his figure could not be seen clearly in the darkness. He only felt that the other party's aura was somewhat unfamiliar, and he immediately realized that something was amiss.
However, the sound did not come out. Because a hand accurately hit his mouth in the darkness, forcing his voice back.
He struggled, trying to warn his companions by the noise of the struggle. Unfortunately, he failed once again. The other party did not even give him the chance to move. His body seemed to be controlled by something, and he was unable to move, much less make any noise.
"It's useless. Your companion is going to die soon."
Chu Feng lightly smiled and moved closer to Thirteen's ear, destroying the last hope in his heart. Thirteen opened his eyes in despair, trying to see the person in front of him, but the night was so dark that all he could see was a vague outline.
"Everyone be careful, form a circle and slowly compress it. We can't let anyone go."
After throwing Thirteen's cold body away, Chu Wuwei's voice was icy cold. There was no emotion in his voice, because in his mind, these people were already dead.
The area was not big, the 20 people had almost finished their encirclement, everyone held their breath, although wealth was right in front of their eyes, no one dared to act rashly, everyone was waiting for Chu Wuwei's order. Even Xuan You Ran was abnormally obedient at this moment. In the darkness, he tightly pursed his lips, not allowing himself to make a single sound.
"You went to take over from Thirteen. He's been gone for a long time."
In the hollow, the woman sent the advisor to take over Thirteen's position.
The advisor stood up, blocking the fire with his huge body as he walked towards Thirteen.
After a while, the woman suddenly frowned and asked curiously, "Why isn't Thirteen back yet?"
When he said this, the other two also realized that something was wrong. The advisor had already been gone for so long, but Thirteen still had not returned. Could there be a problem?
When they thought of this possibility, everyone subconsciously picked up their weapons.
"You no longer have a chance!"
At this moment, an unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded.
Under the astonished gazes of everyone, Chu Feng calmly walked out. With a bloodthirsty smile, he said, "I am truly sorry. I had originally wanted to give you guys some more time."
"Who are you?"
The woman suddenly stood up, a short blade appearing in her hand as she coldly stared at Chu Yuan.
His companions also stood up, surrounding Chu Feng to prevent him from escaping.
Chu Dai smiled indifferently, not caring about their attitudes at all. He smiled at the woman in front of him. She had a good figure of 90 points, but her looks were passable. 70 points, she averaged 80 points. He was a bit reluctant to part with her.
