Sure enough, the eldest brother felt a little guilty. What the second brother said was right. It was also his fault for being so talkative. It would have been better if he hadn't said it out loud. But there is no medicine for regret in the world.

After running for a while, they couldn't run any longer. They were running against the wind, covered in mud, cold, hungry, and shivering.

"Brother, take a break, take a break."

The eldest brother really didn't want to run anymore. It was not a good day to go out. Why did he agree to his mother's request to make a chair with wheels? His brain was full of water. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two men gradually slowed down, the second brother stopped running and turned into walking, the eldest brother was a little slower than the second brother and walked in front of him.

The second brother wanted to look back, but he didn't dare to, for fear of seeing something he shouldn't see and getting seriously ill. So he thought of letting the eldest brother look first, so that there shouldn't be any problem.

After walking a few steps forward, the eldest brother realized that his second brother was about to catch up, so he quickened his pace, thinking that if he walked faster than his second brother, the thing would catch up with him first if it did.

The second brother was a little confused. He had been asked to take a break and he had agreed, so why was he walking so fast? He simply stopped and shouted, "Big Brother".

The eldest brother felt safe when he saw that his second brother did not catch up with him and kept this distance.

He turned sideways, but didn't dare to look back. He glanced at his second brother and turned away again. "What's the matter? Why don't you leave?"

"You're walking too fast. I can't keep up."

"That's all?"

The second brother scratched his head with his hands covered in mud, and put his head down halfway, frowning slightly. His whole face was tense, but it was covered in mud and it was dark so he couldn't see clearly.

"It's not just this matter. Brother, don't you want to see if you are being followed?"

"I heard that if we encounter this kind of situation, we can check to see if there are any footprints of anyone other than the two of us. If there are, then we're in trouble. If not, then we can rest assured."

Hearing this, the person hiding in the dark couldn't help but raise one corner of his mouth. It was the first time he heard such a statement.

The eldest brother really wanted to see it, but he didn't dare to. What if he looked into its eyes? If it was originally following the second brother, and it became like following him because of a glance, he would regret it so much.

It would be better if I let my second brother see it first.

But since he asked, "Do you really want to see it?"

The second one nodded, "Yeah, big brother, why don't we watch it together."

The second brother naturally knew that this thing should not be looked at, for fear of bringing trouble upon himself. As long as the eldest brother looked back first, there would be no danger of error, whether there were footprints or not.

The eldest brother squatted down and pulled out a palm-sized stone from the mud.

"Then I'll throw a stone, and when we hear the sound of it hitting the ground, we'll all turn our heads together."

"it is good."

The second brother couldn't wait to agree.

There was only a dull thud of a stone falling to the ground, and the second child cried out, "Ah!"

"What happened?"

The eldest brother had no way of telling whether his second brother had seen it or not, but judging from the degree of fear revealed in his voice, he was afraid that he had really seen something.

But he didn't dare to look back anymore.

"Brother, behind you~ah~"

The second child let out another frightened scream.

The boss was feeling uneasy, wondering what was going on and what he had seen.

"What's going on behind me? Tell me quickly."

The anxious tone was filled with tears.

The second brother pretended to be so frightened that he couldn't speak, and waited for the eldest brother to turn his head.

The eldest brother thought that since his second brother had seen it, it didn't matter if he saw it too. He couldn't bear it any longer, turned his head and looked behind him, but there was nothing.

Suddenly I felt an itch on my neck. Could that thing be lying on my back? I suddenly jumped three feet high, and my arm was almost broken. Even in such a condition, I could see that my face changed. In panic, I grabbed a worm with my hand.

Somewhat incredible, it's just a worm.

I took it in my hand, threw it hard to the ground, stepped on it, and felt that it was difficult to get rid of the hatred in my heart.

He rolled over it a little more and lifted his foot. There was some green sticky juice and some broken insect corpses on it. He couldn't tell what had been under his feet as it was completely mixed with the mud and water.

When I met the second brother's eyes, I felt that he seemed very proud of himself. But what was he so proud of?

No, maybe he didn't look back. Lao Er was right behind him. He could see the worm without looking back. He was twisting and turning there just now, so he must have looked behind. Cold sweat broke out instantly.

"Second brother, you just...didn't turn your head."

I finally asked the question, hoping that it would not be what I thought.

"Yeah, I didn't turn around, but when I saw a bug behind you, I quickly reminded you. Otherwise, if you got bit by the bug, you would have suffered."

The second brother acted as if he cared about his eldest brother. Now who cares if he gets bit by insects? But it would be very uncomfortable if he gets bitten.

"Then I have to thank you."

The boss was so angry that he was fuming, but since he had already checked it, there seemed to be no problem. He looked at it carefully and found that it was no different from usual, just a bug. He suddenly felt relieved.

The second brother saw that his eldest brother had turned around, so he thought that everything must be fine. He turned around and looked again, but nothing happened. It was just a false alarm.

Walked back.

"Look, nothing's wrong, brother."

His expression suddenly became solemn, and he squatted down to look at several footprints that appeared out of thin air.

After walking a little further, I only saw the same thing in the place I had just walked past, but not in the places before. Could it be that the thing could understand human language and was specifically used to scare people?

It was obvious that he followed the two of them back.

The second brother went limp all over and sat down in the mud.

The boss thought this guy was really something, there was obviously nothing wrong, why was he pretending.

Seeing that he had no intention of getting up, I thought of going over to take a look, and was immediately attracted by footprints on the ground that were different from the two of them.

The footprints of two adult men would not be so small, they were obviously from a child. But there was no human figure seen just now, only a bug. Where did the child come from? And in such weather, the adults would not let them out to play.

The second brother pointed at the footprints and spoke tremblingly, no longer looking as proud as before.

"Brother, did you see that? There is only one section of extra footprints. There was none before."

The boss didn't notice it just now, but only saw it after he reminded him. It turns out that they are not available along the way.

This is even more frightening. Doesn't it mean that it did it on purpose, and it has already followed one of the two people? It is very likely that... I dare not think about it any further. I'd better go home quickly and go see the fortune teller tomorrow when I have time.
