C924 Someone Beat Me to It
"It seems that the wild beasts living in this mountain forest are not simple. It should be related to the dense Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth here." Qiu Cheng's eyes flashed with a thoughtful light.
"Don't just stand there and watch. Let's keep walking. It doesn't matter if it has activated the Intelligence or not," Lee Yifann said. Although he was curious, the most important thing was to go to Ancient Ruins. Otherwise, it would not be easy to walk when it was dark.
"Yes, let's hurry!"
"This way!"
The group immediately rushed forward. They jumped from one tree to another. Their movements were light and fast. In just half an hour, they had crossed seven or eight kilometers of mountain road.
"This forest is really big." Qiu Xue could not help but mutter. Although she had walked through it once, it was still very tiring.
Qiu Cheng frowned. "Did you guys notice?"
"What?" Qiu Yi was slightly stunned.
Qiu Cheng looked into the distance for a while and said, "The situation is slightly different from the last time. The last time we came here, we didn't encounter any wild beasts, but the wild beasts we encountered on the way here. There are at least five of them, and the strange thing is that these wild beasts saw us the moment they saw us. It automatically backed off."
Everyone was stunned.
Qiu Yi scratched the back of his head. "If you didn't say it, I wouldn't have noticed. It really seemed like that was the case. Other than the black bear at the beginning, there were a few wild beasts that he encountered later on. They were all roaring at us at the beginning. As if they knew how powerful we were, they automatically ran away. "
"What's going on?"
The three of them were confused. They couldn't figure out what was going on, so they couldn't help but look at Lee Yifann who was standing beside them.
"Don't look at me. I don't know what's going on either. It's my first time here." Lee Yifann was also confused. If he knew what was going on, he would have explained it to them.
"No, there must be something wrong! These beasts can't avoid us for no reason! Even if they activate the Intelligence, the nature of the beasts is still there, "Qiu Cheng said, frowning.
Wild beasts are wild beasts. Even if they activate the Intelligence, they are still wild beasts.
The nature of a beast was to hunt. In the eyes of a beast, a human with a small body was just food.
Qiu Cheng did not think that after these wild beasts activated the Intelligence, their nature would disappear.
"We must have overlooked something..." The three of them furrowed their brows and thought hard.
Lee Yifann also started to think and then looked around. At this time, he suddenly found some strange marks on the ground not far away.
"Hmm?" Lee Yifann quickly walked over and squatted down to look at it. He frowned and thought of something. His eyes suddenly became cold.
The three of them ran over. Qiu Cheng quickly asked, "War God, did you find anything?"
Lee Yifann nodded and pointed at the marks on the ground. "Look carefully, the soil here."
They threw their heads over and saw a thick layer of leaves on the ground. They pushed the leaves aside to see some dirt.
Qiu Cheng looked confused. What was the problem?
"This... Is there a problem with asking War God for help?" Qiu Yi asked shyly.
Lee Yifann looked at him and said, "Take note, on the way here, what kind of leaves do you see on the ground?"
The three of them were stunned.
Qiu Xue thought for a few seconds and answered blankly, "The leaves are the leaves. There are so many trees here. If they fall naturally, there will be a lot of leaves. War God wanted to say, how would the leaves fall?"
"Definitely not. How could War God ask such a boring question?" Qiu Yi rolled his eyes at her.
Lee Yifann picked up a leaf from the ground. "Look carefully at this leaf. There is a little bit of white dust on it."
"Eh?" The three of them stretched their necks and looked closer. They found that there was indeed some white dust.
"What is this white ash?" Qiu Yi asked in surprise.
Qiu Cheng looked at it and raised his eyebrows. "It should be a small piece of lime milk or dried white paint."
"White paint?" The two were very surprised. "Why is there white paint here? Could it be that some tree has white paint on it? No, that's not right. Other than us, it's impossible for ordinary guards to enter this kind of place."
As soon as he said that, Qiu Cheng's expression changed. "It's true that the guards didn't come in, but it might be someone like us who brought it in!"
"What?" The two people were shocked. "What's going on? You're saying that there are other people here as well?"
"It can't be wrong!" Qiu Cheng said with certainty, "We just came to Yishan. You should have noticed it when we were in the outer region. The outer perimeter's defensive forest was painted with some white paint. There was also lime milk. As long as a person passes through it, their clothes will inevitably be stained with some."
Qiu Xue quickly looked down at her clothes. There was indeed quite a lot of white paint and lime powder on the clothes on both sides of her waist." There is indeed! "
"I also have it on my body, and there are quite a lot of pants too!" Qiu Yi said in surprise, "War God and Qiu Cheng also have quite a lot of clothes on them."
"As long as people wear clothes from the forest, they will definitely be stained with a lot of clothes. This means that there should be people like us, entering this place. Then they will be covered in white paint. And then as we walk, the powder or white paint on your clothes will fall off bit by bit. " Qiu Cheng's eyes searched the ground for a while, then he walked to the ground a few meters away. He picked up a leaf and said, "Look, there's also white dust on this leaf. And what kind of leaf is this? "
"Eh? It looks like a Camphoragate leaf..." Qiu Xue said in surprise.
Qiu Yi frowned and was surprised and uncertain, "Why is there a Camphoragate Tree here? Most of them are fir trees and shrubs."
"It's very simple. Someone's clothes were stained with Camphoragate leaves and brought here." Qiu Cheng's eyes focused and his expression was not good. "I'm afraid there's more than one person who came in. Someone came in before us!"
"What?" The two of them were shocked.
Qiu Xue's body trembled and her face was filled with fear, "Could it be that there is someone like us who knows about the matters in Ancient Ruins?"
"How is this possible? That ancient ruin is so hidden, and it is also in such a desolate place. Apart from us, who else would know about it?" Qiu Yi also couldn't believe it.
Qiu Cheng's tone was solemn, "Not only us, but all the signs show that... There must be someone else here, so we have to be careful! I suspect that those beasts were so strange, it must have something to do with the person who came first! "
After this explanation, the two of them immediately felt that this possibility was quite high.
After all, the beasts would not hide from them for no reason. Most likely, someone had taught them a lesson previously. When the beasts saw that they were of the same kind, they knew that they were not to be trifled with, so they fled in a hurry.
"War God, what do you think?" Qiu Yi hurriedly asked Lee Yifann.
Lee Yifann took a deep breath and said, "My opinion is the same. Everyone, be careful! A ruin would definitely be coveted by many people. There could be a conflict. In a place like this, humans are far more terrifying than wild beasts! "
