Chapter 874 A Sinister Smile Looking Over From The Dark



Su Qingzhao did not wish to make things troublesome in the middle of nowhere which was why he tried to play the peacemaker but how can the proud and arrogant Qin Lu suffer in silence? He was the only son of the Qin family and was treated as if he was the treasure of the Qin family even if he was rebellious and did not like to study, his parents would not dare to say a thing to him. Instead, they will treat him truly well and make sure that he did not suffer. 

So, how can he simply swallow this anger down without throwing a tantrum? At least he had to make Luo Shan realise that he cannot just treat him so casually! 

" Young master Qin," just as the situation was getting awkward and escalating into a heated argument, Su Qian spoke up as she headed towards Qin Lu and placed her hand on his shoulder as she said, "Please let this go for my sake. We cannot let this matter escalate especially when we are still in the middle of nowhere, all right?" 

Qin Lu looked at Su Qian, he knew that Madam Wang was his mother's friend which was why he nodded and agreed with what Su Qian said and did not make a fuss anymore. Once Qin Lu calmed down, Su Qian looked at the group of teenagers with a frown and then said, " I hope you all will take this matter a bit seriously. This is not a place to run amok and I hope that you all will stay in the group." 

As she spoke she took out an extra talisman and sneakily stuffed it inside Qin Lu's hand who looked down at her with surprise in his eyes but Su Qian only blinked at him. She would have done the same for the other two as well but she knew that these reckless young men will not honour her goodwill which was why she did not insist. 

Something about this place was making her feel spooked out and she couldn't just ignore the nagging feeling in her head as Madam Wang looked at the dark sky which was turning darker by the minute. The fact that their phones stopped working and they could no longer turn them on was already eerie enough but their wristwatches also stopped working and that too at an odd hour when it was making a frowning face. 

It terrified Madam Wang to the point where she started to overthink the situation in front of them. 

At such times she did not wish for them to separate which was why she turned to look at  Su Qingzhao and asked him to keep up with them. 

Su Qingzhao also agreed with his aunt, the sky was indeed turning a bit too dark whether it was because of the canopy of the thick trees or it was because of the low temperature of this place, it was indeed not good for them to wander off alone. 

This was why they did not dare to suggest separating anymore and agreed with Master Wang's suggestion when the latter asked to go with them. 

Qin Lu who suffered a fright did not throw the talisman away even though he did not believe in feudal superstitions, he still stuffed it inside his pockets, since he could see that the talisman was drawn quite intricately which differed from the one which was sold at the stalls in the market. 

He stayed in the middle of the group for some reason his shoulder which was hit on the ground was hurting a lot even though he did not fall that bad as he raised his hand and touched the shoulder which was hurting he felt something warm and gooey touch his fingertips. 

Surprised, he looked down at his hand and yelped causing everyone including  Su Qingzhao who was now holding a torch light to turn around and ask, " What is the matter with you? Why are you screaming like that?" 

" Bl...Blood, my shoulder is covered in blood!" Because the spot where he fell was not illuminated with light, Qin Lu did not see anything amiss but now that he knew that his jacket was covered with something, he immediately pulled it off his shoulders and then threw it on the ground and what he saw made him faint.

The entire jacket was covered with blood! 

Even  Su Qingzhao and the rest were startled when they saw the blood-covered jacket. What was going on how come Qin Lu's jacket got covered with so much blood? Did he fall into a pit of blood or something?

" Ma...Maybe it was an animal which was killed…?" In such a scenario this indeed made sense but Qin Lu shook his head like a bull and then looked at his friends before saying, " What animal? Ever since we stepped on this rotten island do you think that we heard or saw even a blood fly? Then how can there be so much blood spilt on the ground? I am telling you something is wrong!" 

Qin Lu's right eyelid was twitching and he felt the talisman in his pocket hum with an energy which made him wary of his surroundings. 

He no longer cared about passing those damned college exams, he was willing to get his legs broken and thrown into an intensive care unit instead of staying here and looking for that darned temple! He was already no longer in the mood to even stay on this damned island, without waiting for anyone to suggest any more reason for this blood which appeared on his jacket, he said, " I don't care, I am not going to that temple anymore. If you want then you can go——" as soon as he uttered those words, he felt a chill climb on his spine as he heard a bone-chilling voice echo in his ears that said,

·ƈθm " You can't run anymore, hehehe." 

Stunned Qin Lu turned to look behind him and immediately saw a pair of gold eyes which was staring fixedly at him with a sinister smile.
