Stealing Pens: Travelers from the End of the World

Tan Yuchen didn't care what Xiaoya was doing. He used the light of Zhang Qiling's flashlight to kick a small stone and follow them as they walked slowly.

The forest is not too quiet at night, and the sounds of frogs or other insects can always be heard from the surrounding grass. Wuxie and Tongzi are chatting in front about the purpose of this trip. The sound is not loud, but it is very good for Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling. Listened thoroughly.

It was as if it was told specifically to them.

After three or four hours of walking and resting, they came to a relatively spacious place and prepared to spend the night here.

Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling did not choose to set up a tent, but found a larger tree and climbed up. They sat on a branch respectively and looked at the busy figures of the five people below.

Tongzi originally planned to light a fire, but was stopped by Wuxie sternly.

Xiaoya wanted to follow Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling up the tree after seeing them. She shouted under the tree that she wanted Tan Yuchen to go down and help, but Tan Yuchen ignored her.

Xiaoya stomped her feet like a spoiled child and returned to her so-called brother's tent aggrievedly.

When the bald man saw Xiaoya sitting opposite him with a gloomy face, he taunted in a low voice: "What? The beauty trap doesn't work anymore?"

Xiaoya glared at the bald head and said nothing.

"Humph, you have your moments of failure." The bald man laughed.

Xiaoya quickly took out a dagger from her waist and placed it in front of the bald man's neck, with an unhappy look on her face: "Take care of yourself, you may die without knowing it."

"You'd better be quieter. Those two people on the tree are very smart. Don't let me be alive by then and you will die first." The bald head pushed Xiaoya's hand away disapprovingly, stood up and made a gesture of invitation. , "Please? Sister."

"Humph."

After Xiaoya came out of the tent, she glanced vaguely at the tree not far away, with a hint of evil flashing in her eyes.

As soon as Xiaoya looked over, she met Tan Yuchen's eyes. She was startled by the eyes that contained murderous intent. Xiaoya blinked her eyes quickly. When she looked over again, Tan Yuchen smiled at her and tapped her chest with his finger. The black knife inside.

Xiaoya didn't understand the meaning of that action. The smile on the man's lips had no meaning, and his eyes were calm, as if the murderous eyes were just an illusion in her panic.

Qin Yuchen looked at the slightly panicked figure and laughed out loud. He sat on the branch next to Zhang Qiling and whispered, "My acting skills are not up to par."

"Yeah." Zhang Qiling nodded in agreement with Tan Yuchen's words.

Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling are such perceptive people. Xiaoya thought their hidden eyes had been clearly seen by them, and they had almost listened to the conversation with the bald head.

There are a lot of mosquitoes in summer. Xiaoya used some mosquito repellent spray without Wuxie's permission. When Wuxie found out, it was already too late.

Tan Yuchen smiled, thinking that he was quite dedicated. He wasn't worried about mosquitoes, because he had someone beside him who was more effective than mosquito coils.

Wuxie wanted to say something to Xiaoya but felt that it was not good, so he had to sigh and go back to his tent to rest.

Nothing happened in the first half of the night, until in the second half of the night, there was a noise deep in the forest. Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling instantly opened their eyes and looked deeper.

A few people below seemed to be still sleeping, but the bald man keeping watch was missing.

Neither of them moved, and they had no intention of going down to wake those who were sleeping.

The noise seemed to be coming towards them. The people in the tent must have felt something and they all came out of the tent. Xiaoya panicked and grabbed Xu Jing's sleeve and kept asking what was wrong.

Wuxie and Tongzi also huddled together with fear on their faces. Xu Jing looked around cautiously with their three guards behind them.

At this time, the bald head came out of the forest on the other side. Xiaoya cried and asked where he had gone, but the bald head just said that he had gone conveniently.

They were frightened for a while. The noise seemed to suddenly stop halfway, and the surroundings became quiet again except for the croaking of frogs and the chirping of insects.

Zhang Qiling patted Tan Yuchen's arm and pointed in a direction. After Tan Yuchen nodded, he left the place quietly.

Wuxie looked at the tree at this time and asked, "Master Qin? How are you doing?"

"It's okay." Tan Yuchen said, "Did you see what it was?"

"No, it seemed to have stopped suddenly." Wuxie replied.

Tan Yuchen said "Yeah": "Then let's all have a good rest."

After saying that, no matter what Wuxie asked, he closed his eyes as if he couldn't hear anything.

Wu Xie watched below for a long time, not seeing anything wrong with the tree, and then called everyone back to their respective tents to rest.

★————

The sky was slightly bright, and Qin Yuchen subconsciously punched when he felt someone beside him. As soon as he swung out, he was completely wrapped by the person's hand: "It's me."

Zhang Qiling whispered, he let go and watched Qin Yuchen open his eyes, and then whispered two more words.

Tan Yuchen nodded.

The people below had no intention of taking action, so Zhang Qiling sat down and looked up at the sky in a daze. Tan Yuchen leaned on the tree trunk and looked at the tents below, his eyes dim and unclear.

After daybreak, Wuxie asked everyone to pack up and continue setting off after everyone ate some biscuits.

In the morning, the flowers and plants on both sides of the path are covered with dew, which slips onto the trouser legs of pedestrians after someone passes by. Instead of the croaking of frogs and insects in the forest, there are the calls of various birds.

The sun also shines on the earth through the gaps between the leaves.

No one mentioned what happened last night, as if it was just an episode. Tan Yuchen didn't bother to let them pay attention. He bent down and picked a flower from the grass and played with it in his hand.
