The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 412 Socks

Hu Weixian and the others walked through the forest along the sound of the drums.However, after a long time, they discovered that things were not as simple as they imagined.

At first, the drumming seemed to be coming from one direction.However, after chasing for nearly 10 minutes, they realized that the distance between the drum and them hadn't shortened.

It was as if the drums were constantly moving as they moved.

After half an hour, Hu Weixian finally stopped. He stood in place, turned his head to look at Heilong, and said to him, "Don't you think things are a little strange?"

In fact, he didn't say anything, but the black dragon already sensed that something was wrong. He nodded, lowered his voice and said, "No matter which direction we go, the sound of the drum is always in front of us."

Seeing him analyze the matter so cleanly this time, Hu Weixian was a little surprised, but he still didn't say anything.

He didn't speak, and the black dragon didn't know what to do next, so he asked, "Then what should we do now? Should we still pursue it?"

Heilong's words made Hu Weixian embarrassed.If you chase, according to their method, don't say whether you can catch up or not.But after a long time, it will definitely cause damage to their cultivation base.

But if you don't chase them, it is obviously very difficult for the two of them to get out of this forest by themselves.

Just when the two were in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.Suddenly, there was another rustling sound from the bushes on the side.

This time not only Hu Weixian heard it, but Heilong also heard it.

The two turned their heads at the same time, looking at the trembling bushes not far away.

Due to the lessons learned from the last few times, Hu Weixian hesitated to ask this time, and he said uncertainly: "Did you hear that too?"

What answered him was Heilong's slight nod.

Seeing Heilong's gaze, never leaving the bush, Hu Weixian knew what he was going to do.

Since you can't catch the drumbeat, then grab this ready-made one.

Now that people have sent gifts to their door, how can there be any reason not to accept them?
Thinking of this, Hu Weixian made a movement, signaling the black dragon to outflank it from the other side, while he slowly approached the bush.

Just when the two came to a place less than three meters away from the bush and were about to act, a figure suddenly jumped out of the bush.

Both of them were familiar with that figure, but they were still surprised when they saw it in this place, so that Hu Weixian blurted out: "It's you?"

Heilong looked at the dark figure in front of him, and couldn't react for a while.

But at this time, the figure made a creaking sound at the two of them.Then, he made an incredible move.He handed the rope hanging around his neck to the two of them, as if he was in a hurry.

Look at his expression, and the emotions that come out of his actions.Hu Weixian guessed for a while, and then asked with some uncertainty: "You want me to help you untie it?"

This figure is none other than Hu Weixian and Heilong, the sock they caught in the cave.

When they heard the drumbeat for the first time in the cave, the sock struggled like a madman.Hu Weixian who was taken aback at that time.Moved with compassion, he let go of the sock as soon as he let go.

Although, this incident caused them a lot of trouble afterwards.However, neither of them took it to heart.

Because they knew that they had caught this sock after all, even when he was leading them the way, he was not always willing.

It is a good thing that it can be used for a long time, but if it is lost due to some accidents of mine, it is not a big loss.

You must know that a relationship that cannot last for a long time is the same whenever it is broken.

Besides, it is actually quite tiring to beware of a person who leads the way for oneself.

However, neither of them expected that this sock would come to their door at this time.

The moment he saw him, Hu Weixian was already in his mind, thinking about how to convince him to take him out.

He thought that in exchange, he would exchange the freedom he had given him by untying the rope in exchange for his service as a guide.

It's fine if he wants to.If he didn't want to, he'd let the sock get them out, anyway.

But who knows, the sock shook his head after hearing his words, and just persistently handed the rope to the two of them.

Seeing his actions, Hu Weixian raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then boldly thought of a possibility, so he asked tentatively, "Are you going to give us this rope?"

What answered him was Soo's frantic nodding.

This makes people feel very strange.According to their understanding, when they were in the cave, they grabbed this sock to show them the way, so now, does this sock not hate them at all?
Even if this sock is a kind-hearted Madonna who doesn't want to argue with them, what happens when she comes to her door?
Especially his current actions, asking the two to tie him up, this matter completely surpassed the logical thinking that the two of them are usually familiar with.Let the two look at each other, not knowing what to do.

"What should I do?" At this moment, Heilong turned to look at Hu Weixian and asked.

"What should I do? You ask me, how do I know?" Facing Heilong's question, Hu Weixian rolled his eyes.Turning his head away, he saw the pitiful expression on that sock's face.

After sighing in his heart, he finally said hard-heartedly, "Okay, then we'll accept it."

As he spoke, he took the rope over, then looked down at the sock and said, "Since we have taken your rope, it proves that you are our captive now. Then, next, you will do something for us. "

He said such a long list, but he didn't really expect that the sock could understand. After all, as a resident of the ghost country, there was still a huge gap between him and the monster race.

That's why, from the very beginning, there was no dialogue between the two.

However, what was strange was that the sock nodded after he took the rope.

Hu Weixian didn't have time to think about why he reacted like this, and he didn't know whether he really understood it, or guessed it, and was about to say something.I saw the sock turn around and take a few steps forward.

He didn't stop until the distance of the rope reached the limit, turned his head to look at the two, and then made a creaking sound, as if signaling them to follow him.

"You want us to go with you?" Heilong raised his brows and asked after seeing his movements.

Although there is a language barrier, fortunately, everyone shares body language. After seeing Soo nodding frantically, the two exchanged a look.

Hu Weixian said: "Okay, then we will go with you, you lead the way!"

In fact, it's not that Hu Weixian didn't think about it. The reason for the appearance of this sock was just because the way he appeared was too straightforward, which made Hu Weixian unable to think of any other possibilities for a while.

If he wanted to hurt himself, he had a million ways to act like he was cornered.

If it was at that time, if he came to find him, neither the black dragon nor himself would have any defenses.

However, this sock does not.He appeared in front of the two of them frankly and handed over the rope to them, showing complete trust.

His behavior made Hu Weixian wonder what to do.

Maybe, he used such a trick?The so-called smart people are the easiest to be deceived, because they tend to think too much.

Thinking of this, Hu Weixian looked at the back of Sock who was leading the way, and felt a little confused for a while.

Is the IQ of this sock really so high?Or is it all a mistake, is it because I think too much?I hope that all this is just because I think too much.

At this moment, the black dragon on the side suddenly pulled his clothes. Hu Weixian turned his head and saw the black dragon looking at him with worried eyes: "What's the matter?" He asked in a low voice.

"Do you think..."

Before Heilong finished speaking, he was interrupted by Hu Weixian stretching out his hand. He looked into Heilong's eyes and said, "I know what you are going to say. Not only you think so, but I also think so."

"Then you still follow him?" Heilong said, raising his eyebrows in surprise.Because as far as he knows, Hu Weixian will never be deceived so easily. This old fox, if he doesn't deceive others, others should burn incense. How can anyone dare to deceive him!

"I've thought about everything you think about, even deeper than you think." He said, turning his head to look around, and then said: "But you tell me, besides trusting him, we have other things way?"

After hearing his words, the black dragon fell silent. Indeed, judging from their current situation, they really had no other choice but to believe in this sock.

"You have to know, the two of us have already tried, and there is no way to leave this forest. Isn't that why we chased the drum in the first place?" He said, silent for a while: "And now, Now that we have a living navigator, we don't need to do anything else, just follow him."

"Then do you know where he will take us?" Heilong asked after hearing his words, "What if he takes us to some good place?"

What he said made Hu Weixian laugh. He pointed to the forest beside the two of them and said, "Look around here, can you tell me this place is a good place? As for where he will take us, we can only resign ourselves to fate. "

After saying this, he spread his hands, made a helpless gesture and said: "Anyway, I think it's better to have an opponent when soldiers come to block you, and when water comes and soil floods you, it's better than the two of us foolishly standing in the forest like headless chickens." It’s good to be swaying around.”
