The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 322 White Cat
According to the news that Yang Yang and the others got before, Yu Man went up the mountain with a group of donkey friends more than a week ago, and no one has seen him since then.

Yuan Mu was originally looking for the group of donkey friends who went up the mountain with him, but after he saw that the donkey friends had been casted with a simple enchantment spell, and every donkey friend who traveled with Yu Man had such marks on them, He has already determined that there are no clues to be found from them.

It may be too much to say this, but for mortals like them, whether it is Yu Man himself or the person who brought Yu Man to this place, it is a very merciful way to silence them without killing them.

If they really intend to hide their whereabouts, these people really can't help anything.

Fortunately, in this world, there is another kind of person called a guide.

After several twists and turns, Yuan Mu still found the guide who led them up the mountain.

The guide is a local, originally a farmer of this generation who went up the mountain to collect herbs. Due to the rise of the tourism industry, there are more and more donkey friends who like to come here on their own and climb the mountain by themselves. It became a real living as a guide.

And the entire Taojiang is not big, which means that the circle of guides is not big.

There are only so many people who do it in total, and who has taken which jobs can be found out just by asking.

After spending 500 yuan, Yuan Mu finally found the guide who took Yu Man and the others up the mountain.

What surprised Yuan Mu was that, unlike the people who had been in too much contact with him before, this guide had not been enchanted by any spells.

This made him curious, but this curiosity didn't last long. When he heard the guide's itinerary, he knew the reason.

Because of this guide, after leading Yu Man and the others to their destination, they went down the mountain.

"Their group was made up of several individual travelers, and there was no specific destination. There were some people who were unhappy because of the itinerary, so I took them to the place and came down."

While collecting the money handed over from Yuan Mu, the guide said, "The groups I usually pick up require me to spend the night with them and bring them down the next day. No overnight stay."

"Oh? What are they arguing about?" Yuan Mu asked curiously when he heard this sentence.

"It's nothing, it's just a couple, and one of the girls insisted that the other girl in the team robbed her of a man." The guide said, a little bit dumbfounded: "Now these dolls! I don't know that they are thinking about it every day. Think about something."

Yuan Mu, who looked like a teenager, laughed awkwardly when he heard this sentence.

According to the guide, Yu Man's behavior along the way was very normal, and he didn't show anything strange.

Even when they arrived at their destination, he even came forward to persuade the girl who was always swearing.

Seeing that he was good, the guide once asked him what he was doing here, and Yu Man's answer at that time was that he was here to find friends.

The guide didn't think too much when he heard the answer. After all, it seemed to him that Yu Man had a good relationship with everyone in the team. He thought that the friend Yu Man mentioned was just a member of the team. .

This kind of thing is very common. Friends meet for a trip, and one person accompanies the other to do what he wants to do.

For example, hiking or something can be regarded as experiencing life.Yu Man's words can be translated more simply, that is, he came up with his friends.

But others didn't know, Yuan Mu immediately understood Yu Man's purpose for going to Bailong Mountain.

But the question now is, who is the friend that Yu Man mentioned?where is he?How did Yu Man know the news?
Or to put it bluntly, who brought Yu Man here?

For this reason, Yuan Mu asked Meng Xiu specifically: "He has been working with you in the store all along, haven't you heard any news?"

But Meng Xiu's answer was that he didn't know.

According to his original words: "When Yu Man was in the store, he was always very silent. I never found anyone else looking for him, so when he said he was going out, I felt a little strange.

But I didn't ask too much, because I knew that even if I asked, he might not tell me.As for who told him to come to Bailong Snow Mountain to find someone, I really don't know. "

"In this case..." Yuan Mu said after hearing Meng Xiu's answer, "Let's go up the mountain and have a look."

Since their purpose on the mountain this time was not very simple, it was inconvenient for ordinary people to follow them, and they could protect themselves, so Yuan Mu naturally did not seek any guides.

After confirming the location of Yu Man and the others with the guide for the last time, they went up the mountain.

Along the way, I don't know if it was Yang Yang's illusion, he always felt that something was following them.

However, seeing the composure of the others, he ruled out that thought, feeling that he was thinking too much.

Especially the experience of the previous night made him feel that he might be a little nervous, because if something really followed them, it was impossible for Yuan Mu and the others to be unaware of it with their vigilance.

Besides, he had heard from Yuan Mu that apart from their group, there was another Qiongqi who was acting secretly.

If it is said that Yuan Mu and the others in the team are a little dull in their six senses due to some reasons, they don't feel that someone is following them.

Then, Qiongqi, who has been acting secretly, will not be like this.

For Qiongqi's ability, Yang Yang is still very confident.

"What's the matter with you? Why do you look absent-minded today?" At this time, Ning Yuan, who was walking beside him, suddenly spoke. He looked at Yang Yang with some concern and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"No, no, I just didn't have a good rest last night." Hearing his words, Yang Yang immediately denied the statement, quickly followed his rhythm, and then said: "Ning Yuan, don't worry about me, now the last The main thing is to find Yu Man, other things can be put on hold later."

However, no matter how hard they tried, Bailong Snow Mountain was too big.

But if Yu Man and the others went to a relatively hidden mountain, there was no way to get there in one day.

That night, Yang Yang and the others slept in the snow mountain.

According to the previous practice, they found an open space and surrounded the tent with the bonfire in the middle, forming a circle naturally.

When the night was about to fall, Ying Long arranged an enchantment around the camp.Due to the existence of the enchantment, they didn't find someone to watch the night. After dinner, they chatted for a while, and they didn't go to bed until it was almost nine o'clock.

I don't know if it was because he drank too much water at night, Yang Yang suddenly felt a little urgent to urinate when he was half asleep, and he struggled tossing and turning for a long time before he had to get up.

Looking at Yuan Mu who was sleeping very sweetly next to him, he could only sigh, and left the tent alone, ready to go out of the camp to pee.

As he walked, he began to recall in his mind, many ghost stories he had heard and read, there would always be a common unlucky person in these stories, that is, the person who got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

He smiled wryly at himself, and said in his heart that everything he did was like a human being who is always deadly in some ghost movies.

The only difference is that he is protected by Yuan Mu and the others.

But then again, he was scaring himself like this, if Yuan Mu and the others were there, he would definitely say that.

While comforting himself, he walked towards the periphery of the tent.

At the moment when he stepped out of the barrier, the bushes beside him suddenly made a sound and moved, Yang Yang suddenly felt that the forest behind him was quiet and scary.

He had a faint feeling that something was approaching, but when he looked around, he didn't see anything except the beating bonfire in the camp.

"Don't scare yourself." He whispered to himself, and took another two steps forward.

At this moment, something flashed past him suddenly on his right.Already startled, Yang Yang immediately turned his head to look, but found that there was nothing there.

Even a god like you will be scared to death by you, he laughed at himself as he stopped, intending to listen to the movement around him.However, nothing was heard.

It seems that all this is my own illusion.

Although he comforted himself in this way, he still stopped planning to go deeper, and instead found a nearby tree to solve the problem.

A moment later, when he lifted his trousers and walked back, he realized that at some point, a white thing appeared in the woods in front of him, staying there motionless.

He remembered that he didn't see that thing when he came here before. According to the direction, this thing has been following him.

This made him break out in a cold sweat, but he still mustered up his courage and took two steps towards that thing, trying to see what it was.

He knew that he was not very far away from the camp, and if something happened, his cry would be able to wake up Yuan Mu and the others.

But when he was in front of him, he realized that he was really scaring himself.

That white thing is nothing but a white kitten.

It's just that compared to my current cat in the city, it's bigger.

"Little poor boy, have you gone to the wrong place and lost your way?" Yang Yang walked over while talking, hugged the cat in his arms, and said while stroking it.

The strange thing was that the cat didn't run away as quickly as he saw other cats in the city, but sat there obediently, allowing him to hold itself.

Yang Yang looked at the surrounding environment and felt that if the cat was put here, it would definitely die.

So, he touched the cat in his arms again, and continued, "Poor little girl, how about this? You can follow us for a while."

After saying this, he carried the cat back to the camp.
