Shangguan and Ji Ning walked forward along the bamboo forest. Except for a brief exchange at the beginning, no one spoke again.

Both of them have the same personalities.

To put it nicely, it is called aloofness, but to put it bluntly, it means that it has low emotional intelligence and can't speak.

Or they just start to speak and fight to death, without any tactfulness, or they just chat to death, and when they are together, they still choose to shut up to be more harmonious.

The area of ​​this bamboo forest is really much larger than they imagined.

Follow the edges and walk all the way, as if there is no end at all.

Clouds gradually rose in the sky, blocking the moon from time to time, and the bamboo forest seemed even darker, except for the rustling wind sounds that could be heard in my ears.

The two people's breathing and steps were all very low, and only two black shadows passed quickly in the night.

After about half an hour, at their speed, they had already walked a considerable distance, but they had not seen a road that could pass through the bamboo forest.

Ji Ning stopped, turned around, and looked behind him, and what he saw in his eyes was no longer the shadow of the village.

Before Ji Ning could speak, Shangguan had already whispered: "It can't be so far."

This is exactly what Ji Ning wants to say.

When they were near the village, they felt the powerful aura from Zhulin Er, which was so close, as if the man was about to get closer.

However, the breath was like a wave.

It pushed towards the beach at a rapid speed, but in just a moment, it retreated back to the sea and merged into it, silently leaving no trace.

The aura was around the village at that time. Now they walked so far that they could not even see the outline of the village. Obviously, it was impossible to find clues nearby.

Ji Ning pondered: "Are we going in the wrong direction?"

The bamboo forest was distributed along the east and west behind the village. The two of them walked east and west, but after such a long distance, they still didn't see the road. I guess they were taking the wrong path.

Shangguan sighed slightly and couldn't help but look in the direction of his origin.

Because they were walking through the bamboo forest, their vision was blocked by the bamboo forest. In addition, there was no moon now, and it was very dark. Even though Shangguan's ability to see things was more than ordinary people, he felt that the direction was dark and he could not see anything.

"It's better for us to go separately, one continues to move forward, and the other goes back and searches there."

Shangguan proposed.

Her suggestion that she thought was very clever almost made Ji Ning vomit blood.

In the middle of the night, in this unfamiliar mountain, there was a person behind the scenes who didn't know whether they were enemies or friends in the dark. She, a girl, actually asked herself to wander around alone.

Even if he knew that Shangguan's current state was comparable to his own, he might not be worse than him if he started to take action seriously. Ji Ning still shook his head quickly.

But even though he thought so, he couldn't say it clearly, so he could only ponder: "The situation is still unclear now, so it's better to be careful. If something goes wrong, it's not just you and me who are involved."

Fortunately, Shangguan was not a very paranoid person. When he heard Ji Ning say this, he nodded, but then he frowned slightly again and said in a little difficulty: "Can we just turn back?"

Ji Ning looked at the darkness before and after this. He couldn't see any clues in the bamboo forest, so he said, "Our speed must be faster than the mountain people here. I think it's unlikely that they will be. The way to the mountain will be in such a faraway place. What's your opinion?"

Shangguan said "Yes".

The two reached an agreement and walked back along the way.

Because they were worried that they would walk too fast when they came and missed some details, the two of them slowed down a little while on the way back and carefully looked at the bamboo forest.

After walking for a while, Shangguan looked forward, with a little doubt in his eyes, and said, "Although we came back slowly, the speed difference was not too different. Why did we have to see the shadow of the village after walking for so long?"

When Ji Ning heard this, he also looked in that direction. After seeing it clearly, his face changed slightly.

He remembered clearly that on the way he came, in order to estimate the distance, he looked towards the village many times, and it was not until he walked a distance that the village was completely blocked.

Based on the time of going back and forth, the distance they were now walking back could see the village. Even if they couldn't stand the whole picture, they could still see the roofs of some bamboo buildings. After all, this is a two-story structure, and the roofs are located at a total of five or six meters high.

But at the moment, not to mention the bamboo building, in his eyes, there was nothing else except the bamboo forest and a darkness.

This situation is somewhat abnormal.

Even if the moon is now covered by clouds, Ji Ning believes that with his own eyes, he can see a considerable distance. There is no reason, only a piece of darkness.

Seeing Ji Ning's mouth pursed into a straight line, Shangguan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

She stood still, looked at the surrounding environment, and said, "Do you think it's too quiet now?"

Hearing Shangguan say this, Ji Ning pricked up his ears and listened to the movement.

There is nothing else that can be heard in my ears except the sound of wind blowing on the bamboo forest and the sound of bamboo leaves.

The night in the mountains is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, so it is naturally quite quiet. But just now, when I was talking to Shangguan in the village, I could clearly hear the sound of insects, and at this moment, the insects stopped calling.

Just in this night, it is quiet now, which makes people feel a little strange.

Before Ji Ning could speak, Shangguan said again: "We have been walking along this road, and there has been no turning. The streams by the village were parallel to this road at that time."

Hearing this, Ji Ning felt a cold sweat suddenly arise on his body.

This village was built according to the stream when they came.

The south of the village is stream and the north of the village is bamboo forest.

When the sky became dark, everything was silent. You could hear the gurgling water. Although the sound was not very loud, it could be heard very clearly.

When they walked out of the village, they could hear the sound of running water, but at this moment, there was no such sound.

Ji Ning only felt his heartbeat accelerate slightly, but immediately, he suppressed the ominous feeling in his heart, and his eyes were more vigilant to scan the surroundings.

Shangguan's expression was also extremely solemn.
