le Wang's face paled, and she whispered, "How did you know…""I saw." Jiang Qiyun said coldly."Look, looking at... what" Teacher Xiao Wang was puzzled.Jiang Qiyun sneered and said, “Go buy a large blac...After a long time of fear, I also had a feeling of breaking the pot and shattering it in my heart.

Well, it can't get much worse than this—look at me now, exhausted, thirsty, afraid, and helpless... I guess I'll just close my eyes for a bit and see what happens.

There were more dead people in the car than living ones. In the passenger seat sat a gloomy young man.

I parked the car under a big tree, leaned on the steering wheel and closed my eyes. At first, I tried to stand still and listen to the sounds inside the car, but I was too tired. I closed my eyes for just two seconds before falling asleep in a hazy state.

My thoughts were racing, and suddenly I felt a strong longing for home, for my little attic.

I also miss the embroidered warm couch that Mu Wanchen built for me. The once cold and barren stone room became as soft and warm as his heart.

The terrain here is different from home. I lay down for a short while, and soon felt the heat on my head. Looking up, I saw a beam of sunlight shining down on me through the gaps in the branches. In just a few minutes, I felt unbearably hot.

What kind of weather is this, it's getting light so fast and the temperature is rising quickly. Is it really okay to be on the road with a few corpses in this kind of weather

I turned my head to argue with Brother Long, but the co-pilot seat was empty.

He is gone.

I was stunned. Did he just run away by himself!

There are still several bodies in the back seat of the car! Did he just leave them there and run away

Are you trying to make me the scapegoat

My mind was in a whirl, my head scorching from the sun, yet a strange chill emanated from my back.

Are these bodies all possessed Could they suddenly move

I immediately flung open the door and jumped out, running blindly a few steps.

"Where are you going" Long Ge came out from behind a tree, his shoulders hunched with a windbreaker.

"You... why did you suddenly disappear"

"I'm just avoiding the sun," he said with a frown.

I noticed that he had dampness on him, probably from washing the bloodstains in a nearby stream. He looked much more refreshed.

"Why avoid the sunlight You're not a corpse, sunlight can kill bacteria..." I rubbed my face, pushing down the feeling of anxiety and fear.

"Did you sleep well" He didn't answer my question, buttoning his clothes and asking me in a cold voice.

"Can't sleep, right... It feels stuffy in here. I woke up and you were gone, I almost died of fright. How did you sleep"

"If you can't sleep, just hit the road." he said decisively.

I was speechless, so I had to follow him into the car. There was no real road here, so I drove along the flattest path I could find, winding and turning northward.

The Dragon King said he would take us to Bihai Manor within 24 hours. That means Bihai Manor is a few hours' drive from the coast. In those few hours, how far can you drive on normal roads" Brother Long asked me.

If it were a normal road like before, with speeds around 50 yards, then...

"About five hundred, six hundred miles or so," I replied.

"Then we must be careful."

"Why"

He said coldly, "If we head north, we should pass through the edge of the Dragon King's territory. Be careful."

"How careful... We're walking mountain paths now, who knows what's in those ravines..."

"When the car stops working, just abandon it," he said with a frown. "I always feel something's off about this place."

"Is it because there were strange sights in the sky this morning" I couldn't help but press down harder on the gas pedal, wanting to drive faster.

The car ran over a stone, jolting heavily. I felt a "thud" in my back as a body was thrown against the back of the driver's seat.

My hair stood on end, I was hurrying with the body, can this aura hold up

Without some positive energy, I feel like my mentality is about to collapse.

Here, after sunrise it gets hot very quickly, the temperature difference is huge. By noon, I was really suffering from the heat and thirst. I parked the car in a small valley and said to Long Xiao Ge: "Why don't we find something to eat first I'm mentally exhausted and I'm afraid of having a car accident."

"What's there to eat in these desolate mountains and forests Keep moving forward, there are people ahead." He said with conviction.

"How do you know there are people here"

"Just now, halfway up the mountain, I saw a few goats. If they were wild, they would have run away as soon as they saw the car passing by, but these goats were still eating grass while looking over here. They must be domesticated," analyzed Brother Long.

Okay, I continued to drive with renewed spirits. After driving for a while longer, I saw a bamboo building.

This is a building with a strong ethnic flavor, just like the stilt houses in our southern Xinjiang region. The bottom part is empty, directly supported by a bamboo platform to build a small house, and there are also wooden boards connected to form stairs.

“We don’t have any money on us, do we” I asked.

"It's on the body," Long Xiao said very straightforwardly.

I don't want to touch the body, he quickly flipped the money out from under it.

Seeing the banknotes, I realized what country I was in now.

The ancient characters on the bill are unfamiliar to me, but I understand the numbers. The largest denomination is one hundred thousand, and it features a picture of a dragon with a single horn and the national symbol.

"Brother Long, this country is quite poor, and it borders M Country, the lair of the Dragon King. Are we being too bold by going north"

"Our homeland is in the north, if not the north, then where"

“Uh, I didn't mean it that way. I mean, wouldn't it be easier to be tracked if we just kept going straight Maybe we should take a detour I have a rough idea of where we are… The border line here is long. We can enter the country by heading northeast. The Dragon King’s forces are in the northwest, so we could stay far away.”

Long Xiaoge shook his head and said, "If we can't escape back to the border today, then we'll have to fight the pursuers to the death. The Dragon King went to great lengths to capture both of us; he wouldn't let us go so easily. Hurry up and get food and water, then leave immediately."

"......The car's about to run out of gas." I reminded him, "There are no gas stations on this mountain road."

"If you run out of gas, abandon your car and don't drive on the main road."

Long Xiaogē seems to be a person who acts unilaterally and makes decisions on his own. He says what he means, and my opinion is completely invalid.

I had no choice but to get off the bus with my money clutched in my hand and walk towards that stilt house. Brother Long also got off a short distance away, following me closely.

As I climbed the wooden stairs to the stilt house, I suddenly saw something strange—a semicircular stone, about the size of an A4 paper, half-buried in the soil.

The stone had red candle wax dripping on it, making it look like it was stained with blood when you looked at it from a certain angle.

And a crack appeared as well.

“This is a feng shui stone Why is it buried in front of the stairs Aren’t you afraid of tripping over it when you go in and out” I asked softly.

Long Xiaoge frowned and looked around gloomily: "The aura along the way is too chaotic, be careful, those who are not of my clan..."

Before he could finish his words, the window of the hanging foot building suddenly creaked open with a "creak," and a black hunting rifle was extended—rywhere. In the kitchen, there were piles of takeout containers. He said he only dared to order takeout for the entire day at noon every day, even firing his nanny.Archie has two daughters. The elder...
