spooky invasion

Chapter 374
This bloody and filthy smell exploded just like Xiao Chen's body, diffused in the stream at the bottom of the valley, and some fragments of body tissue fell in all directions, although they did not directly fall on them, but also within their field of vision.

Such a tragic situation undoubtedly formed a huge psychological impact.

A good girl like Yu Siyuan who grew up in a honeypot bent down on the spot and vomited.

Xu Chunru grabbed Yu Siyuan and pressed her body tightly against the edge of the boulder to avoid being exposed.

The monster's aiming ability is astonishing, but if it reveals a little flaw, it is very likely that it will be destroyed.

Sure enough, just as Xu Chunru pulled Yu Siyuan's body back behind the boulder, there was a pop where she was originally bent over, and a fist-sized rock fell down precisely, causing a splash of water, which splashed on them.

Yu Siyuan was so frightened that Huarong turned pale, and his feet were almost unsteady.

If Xu Chunru hadn't pulled her, such a powerful stone hit her forehead, I'm afraid it would directly open the flower.

"Sister Ru, thank you." Yu Siyuan expressed his thanks in a trembling voice with a miserable expression on his face.

"Hold on, don't worry, maybe Jiang Yue and the others have already passed." Xu Chunru comforted in a low voice, putting his arms around Yu Siyuan's shoulders.

Du Yifeng hid behind the same boulder with the two of them, and didn't particularly care about Yu Siyuan's distress, and kept staring at it with complicated eyes.

It's a pity that hiding behind the boulder has obviously affected the vision.

Facing the furious monsters and the rain of stones falling down like crazy, Du Yifeng didn't dare to poke his head out to check, no matter how courageous he was.

"Yifeng, who was the person who screamed just now? Was it a boy?"

Xu Chunru took a deep breath and asked in a low voice.

The heart-piercing screams are different from normal sounds, and are relatively difficult to distinguish.After all, the hysterical screams were so loud that the difference was not high.

But it must be a boy, there is no doubt about it.

"Sister Ru, are you worried about Jiang Yue? Don't worry, if only one of the five survives, Jiang Yue must be the one who survives."

Xu Chunru nodded seriously: "It's definitely not Jiang Yue."

"I guess it should be one of Brother Zhi and his group, not Brother Zhi." Du Yifeng's tone was a little regretful.

Brother Zhi and his group, in Du Yifeng's view, without Brother Zhi, that group would basically have no leader. When the time comes to carve up the rough stones, they might be able to play tricks or even turn their backs.

Anyway, they are all examiners, and no one knows anyone before, so what can they do?Whoever has the bigger fist has the final say.

But if Brother Zhi was still there, this wishful thinking probably wouldn't work out.

From this perspective, Du Yifeng naturally did not want Jiang Yue to have an accident.

If something really happened to Jiang Yue, whether they could get the original stone or not is the next thing to do. Du Yifeng even wondered if people like Brother Zhi would turn their backs on the spot, or even kill people to silence them?
The monster's furious state finally subsided after a burst of frenzied venting.

Finally, the bottom of the valley slowly regained some calm, only to hear the monster whimpering and growling, and the tyrannical emotions seemed to be under control.

After the movement became quieter, Du Yifeng poked out half of his head cautiously, and looked up the mountain road.

The monster was probably tired, leaning on the mountain wall with the help of two big trees, half lying down, panting heavily, its huge body still looked very scary from such a distance.

There was no more movement on the mountain road, and there was no sign of Jiang Yue and others.

Du Yifeng quietly climbed up to the top of the boulder, and glanced at the half of his body that was smashed on top of the boulder. The bloody and bloody body tissues were completely out of shape.

From the clothes, it can be barely judged that this person really belongs to Brother Zhi's group. If I remember correctly, this guy's surname is Chen, and he is a relatively low-key young man.

Du Yifeng felt deeply sorry.

Why not Brother Zhi?
Even if it's not Brother Zhi?Why not the guy he was arguing with earlier about the pat-down?

"Yifeng, what's the situation above?" Xu Chunru asked with concern.

"The others should have passed."

"Great, who's up there?" Xu Chunru asked obviously the one who was killed by the monster.

"That young man named Chen."

There are only ten people in total. Although they are not familiar with each other, they have some impressions.

"Well, it's good to pass, I hope his sacrifice is worth it." Xu Chunru murmured.

Du Yifeng turned over from the boulder, but he was still frowning, looking preoccupied.

"They all passed, what are you worried about?"

"Sister Ru, to be honest, do you believe that they won't hide their secrets? I always feel that in the face of such a precious rough stone, one of which is enough to change the fate of an ordinary person, who can be non-greedy? Who wouldn't have a small heart?" Du Yifeng expressed his concerns.

It's not that Du Yifeng is suspicious, anyone would have such concerns.

Xu Chunru also has it, but her temperament is different from Du Yifeng's, doubts are suspicions, and she won't say it directly.

"Yifeng, don't think too much. I think Jiang Yue is more upright. He shouldn't bother to do that, right?"

"I admit that Jiang Yue is a reliable person, but... in the face of such an important rough stone, he will make some small moves, and this possibility cannot be completely ruled out."

Yu Siyuan suddenly said weakly: "Isn't it going to be searched? Where else can I hide it? You can't eat it in your stomach, right? You can't swallow this kind of rough stone with amazing energy?"

But Xu Chunru said: "Yifeng, your way of thinking is wrong. What we should be wary of is not Jiang Yue, but the other party's people, right?"

"It's all the same." Du Yifeng sighed, "I hope they won't be too dark-hearted, and they can share three melons and two dates. It's a pity that I was so lucky that I got the bait. Otherwise, why should I be so worried?"

"The bait is not bad, at least we have completed the mission without any casualties."

But Du Yifeng said: "Five people went there, only one died, and the survival rate reached 80%. This probability is already worth the risk."

The three of them were talking when suddenly a small stone fell in front of them not far away.

But it was thrown from behind another boulder.

The only girl in Brother Zhi's group, Xu Chunru remembered her name was Zhou Yi, and this girl was poking her head and gesturing at them.

The distance between the two sides is about ten meters.

"Have you seen Brother Hao?"

Zhou Yi lowered her voice and asked in a low voice, sounding quite anxious.

Brother Hao?

Brother Hao who was the bait with them?

Both Xu Chunru and Du Yifeng looked puzzled.

Brother Hao and this Zhou Yi are in the same group, and the two of them are hiding behind the boulder over there.

When he was the bait before, Brother Hao had always been the most active and loudest one, and he was also the first to jump onto the boulder.

Shouldn't he be hiding behind the boulder with Zhou Yi?

Why is Zhou Yi so ridiculous that she came to ask them instead?
Although the creek is full of strange rocks and clumps of troubled times, Brother Hao is a living person after all, hiding with Zhou Yi, there is no reason why he would disappear for no reason, but Zhou Yi didn't realize it?

In broad daylight, it can't be blown away by a gust of wind, right?
Xu Chunru asked in a low voice: "Hasn't Brother Hao been with you all the time?"

Zhou Yi said with a mournful face, "He was hiding with me, but he...but he disappeared."

"Are you kidding? Under your nose, a big living person disappeared?" Du Yifeng almost cried with laughter.

He always thought that Yu Siyuan was a pig teammate. From this point of view, this Zhou Yi was more worthy of the title of pig teammate than Yu Siyuan.

Xu Chunru glanced at the monster on the mountain wall, and saw that the monster was generally calm, and there should be no danger for the time being.

The distance between the two boulders was ten meters, and it took about two or three seconds to walk across. Even if the monster reacted, it shouldn't be that fast.

"Go and have a look." Xu Chunru suggested.

Du Yifeng shook his head: "People's hearts are unpredictable, so I won't go."

"What do you mean?" Xu Chunru frowned.

"Hehe..." Du Yifeng turned around and said in a low voice, "Who knows if Brother Hao really disappeared? What if he is hiding on the other side of the boulder?"

"When is this, is it necessary for people to make such a boring joke?"

"Joke? Who's kidding you? Sister Ru, Yuanshi is divided among nine people, who gets more, or six people who get more? You should understand such a simple math problem."

Xu Chunru changed color in shock: "You mean..."

"We can use it as bait to catch that monster. Who can guarantee that the so-called disappearance is not another bait? Just lure us there, and then..."

Du Yifeng wiped it on his neck and made a throat-cutting motion.

Xu Chunru was dumbfounded, unable to speak for a moment.

After a long time, she collected herself and said to herself, "Why do I think it's not that complicated? If they really have this idea, why bother to drag us? If five people act, don't they get more points?"

"Hehe, five people are not enough. If there is an accident in the middle and it becomes three or four people, it will be even more difficult. Anyway, it doesn't matter if you get a few more cannon fodder. After completing the mission, the worst thing is to kill the cannon fodder."

Xu Chunru was still a little skeptical: "After a while, they have to come down, right? Our baits are still effective. It's too early to kill people to silence them now, right? Yifeng, I think you've been thinking a lot lately."

Du Yifeng sneered, he didn't intend to persuade Xu Chunru either.

Anyway, he definitely wouldn't go to check it out. He really didn't care if Brother Hao was dead or alive. If he really was dead, it would be the best.

But he had a strong intuition that Brother Hao must not be dead.

This bespectacled, taciturn guy was even more difficult than Brother Zhi.

While the two were talking, Yu Siyuan suddenly glanced in front of the stream in surprise, pointing at the mountain wall tens of meters away, his face was full of surprise.

"Isn't that Brother Hao?" Xu Chunru also saw it and exclaimed.

Du Yifeng's face instantly became ugly: "This old fox!"

He never expected that Brother Hao, halfway through being the bait, would secretly continue running towards the front of the canyon while the monster's attention was on their side.

After passing through this dangerous area and avoiding the monster's attack range, he then climbed up the mountain wall. It can be said that the risk has dropped a lot at once.

By visual inspection, the position he is climbing now is five to sixty meters away from the monster.With such a long distance, without the condescending advantage, it is basically difficult for stone-throwing attacks to be effective.

Xu Chunru murmured: "Is he cheating? Is he breaking the agreement?"

"Of course!" Du Yifeng was annoyed, no wonder this guy took the initiative to run ahead, occupying a position in the front, and took the initiative to go to a more dangerous area.

It turned out that was the idea.

Du Yifeng was a little annoyed, and he even admired Brother Hao's courage.

It's a pity that if he wants to follow suit now, if others don't give him cover, there is basically no possibility of success.

"Let me just say, this group of people has no good intentions from the beginning, and each of them has evil intentions. Especially this Brother Hao, he is the most insidious!"

Du Yifeng couldn't go there. If he had a gun in hand now, he wouldn't even mind shooting in that direction a few times.

What about the monster?Why not do it?

Is there any way to make that monster find Brother Hao?

After much deliberation, Du Yifeng still couldn't think of any solution.

The monster might not be able to understand human language, so yelling at it might not have made it notice Brother Hao, but it might have angered the monster again and continued to attack them.

No way!

He could only watch helplessly as Brother Hao quickly climbed up the mountain path and disappeared from sight little by little.

Xu Chunru said worriedly: "Brother Hao is not easy. He also went to the impact zone. I'm worried that Jiang Yue and the others will suffer."

Brother Hao entered the impact zone, and the ratio of the two groups returned to three to two.

Xu Chunru didn't have so many conspiracy theories at first, but now seeing Brother Hao not following the rules and not playing cards as agreed, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.

He glanced at Zhou Yi on the other side with complicated eyes.

Seeing her bewildered look, probably in Brother Hao's eyes, Zhou Yi, the so-called "accomplice", is probably just an abandoned son who can be sacrificed at any time.

"Then what should we do now?" Yu Siyuan asked blankly.

"What else can I do? Wait!"

Du Yifeng gritted his teeth, he wanted to go, but he also knew that this was a close call.The opportunity is fleeting, and there is no time to pass now.

……

After Jiang Yue and the others heard Xiao Chen's screams, they didn't delay too long and continued to set off.

When he came to a corner, Jiang Yue said to Brother Zhi: "Brother Zhi, I'm going over there. I have a task to solve. You guys go to the impact zone and wait for me first?"

Brother Zhi was taken aback, when is this so important, is the task not the task?
Before Brother Zhi said anything, the person who had quarreled with Du Yifeng said displeasedly: "Time waits for no one, we have no obligation to wait there."

Jiang Yue smiled slightly: "It's okay for you to find a way to go down first. Don't wait for me."

The impact zone is not a flat ground, it is all on the cliffs in the middle of the mountain. Even with the skill of apes, climbing down may not be so easy. The awakened ones must be hard enough. They need to use tools, think of various methods, and make various plans according to the terrain.

The man wanted to say something more, but Brother Zhi stopped him: "Brother Jiang, let's go there first, and you hurry over to join us."
