Nightmare Attack

"Oh?" Chen Ran raised his eyebrows.

Su Xiaoxiao was not interested in arguing with Chen Ran, and said directly: "We are siblings, and we grew up together. I can feel that he is in danger."

Chen Ran thought for a while, then looked into the depths of the dense forest. After a moment, he turned back and laughed softly: "So Miss Su wants to break the contract?"

As soon as these two words came out, Su Xiaoxiao's trembling body immediately stopped moving. She could clearly feel the chill behind the words "break the contract".

Like a sword, pointing at her forehead.

"No," Su Xiaoxiao answered immediately. She calmed down and her next words were not so urgent.

She retracted her gaze and looked at Chen Ran, then said, "No matter what happens to my brother now, it's too late for me to go back. If we can find the clues on the stone plate, my brother may still have a chance of survival." Chen Ran nodded in approval and said with a smile, "Miss Su is really smart!" "Okay," Su Xiaoxiao turned around and continued to move deeper into the forest, "Let's hurry up. We didn't find any traces of those two people along the way. They may have found the stone plate." Chen Ran took out his hand from his pocket and followed with a smile, "I will listen to Miss Su's arrangements." After walking for about half an hour, relying on Su Xiaoxiao's memory, they finally found the strange white stone plate. Chen Ran squatted down and hid behind a bush. Su Xiaoxiao was about two or three meters to his side, hiding behind a tree, only half of her face was exposed and staring at the stone plate. The two were quietly waiting for the prey to take the bait. Chen Ran's cold eyes slowly swept around the stone plate. Indeed, it was almost the same as what Su Xiaoxiao had described to him before. The stone plate stood quietly in the center. It was full of dead bones.

And there were countless graves around the stone plate.

There were scattered weapons around some graves, all of which were cold weapons such as harpoons and spears. The people buried in these graves seemed to be warriors.

So weird

But what was even weirder was the location itself. It was deep in the forest. They couldn't be sure how far it was from the edge, but it was at least a certain distance away.

Why did they go to the trouble of bringing people here to bury them?

And the soil here was a strange dark red, as if it had been soaked in a lot of blood. Grabbing a handful and putting it to the tip of the nose, the feedback smell was disgusting.

Chen Ran narrowed his eyes slightly.

Obviously, the guys in Black Stone Town had deceived them. This place could never have been washed out by a mountain torrent.

The area near the stone plate was flat and open, and there was no vegetation. It was not an exaggeration to say that there was no grass growing.

A mountain torrent that needed to rely on the terrain could not do this, and it was even more impossible for it to have the spare energy to rush here.

Everything here seemed man-made.

Chen Ran slowly grinned, it was getting more and more interesting.

Su Xiaoxiao's voice came over, full of anxiety and uneasiness, "Why haven't those two appeared yet?" She was too worried about her brother, so she was a little confused.

Chen Ran's eyes swept along the edge of the dark red soil and the forest, and after a while, he looked up at the sky again.

The sky remained the same, but too much time had passed.

Slowly retracting his gaze, Chen Ran turned his head and focused his gaze on Su Xiaoxiao again. Su Xiaoxiao was still looking around and didn't pay attention.

After a while——

"Miss Su," Chen Ran suddenly said, "I think" he smiled and said, "Those two people may have been here."

"Come here? Where?" Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide.

Chen Ran stretched out a hand and pointed at the white stone plate in the center of the open space, "If I'm not mistaken, they are on it."

"Are you saying they are dead?"

Chen Ran didn't comment, a strange light flashed in his eyes, but when Su Xiaoxiao's eyes touched his eyes, the light in his eyes suddenly disappeared again.

"I think so," Chen Ran exhaled, turned his head to look at the stone plate and the grave that were as silent as death, and said in a low voice: "According to the clues I got before, this stone plate should not be so quiet."

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it, and nodded and said: "You are right. It was not so quiet when I came last time. The stone plate now seems to be full and resting."

"That's right," Chen Ran shrugged and walked out of the forest first, "So Miss Su, please hurry up," his voice came over, slightly distorted, "Don't forget, it's getting dark."

This sentence can be regarded as poking Su Xiaoxiao's soft spot. Once it gets dark, let alone what will happen to her brother, even she herself may not be able to walk out of this forest alive.

She gritted her teeth, then walked out of the forest, followed Chen Ran, and walked towards the stone plate.

Passing by graves one by one, she tried not to look or think, but she couldn't stop it. Various weird and messy patterns and lines began to flash in her mind.

It was like a needle piercing her head, forcefully instilling something into it.

The two of them were getting closer and closer to the stone plate. Chen Ran gradually slowed down his pace and kept moving at the same speed as Su Xiaoxiao. His gentle eyes slowly filled with other colors.

"Doctor," the fat man stuck out his butt, holding up a broken branch with green leaves as a cover, and looking out through the gap with a pair of small eyes. He whispered, "They are taking action."

Jiang Cheng hid behind a large moss-covered rock, watching Su Xiaoxiao and Chen Ran approach the stone plate step by step, and he continued to observe calmly.

The fat man swallowed and turned his head, "Doctor," he lowered his voice, but there was a surprise in his voice, "You are so amazing! How do you know that they can't wait for us and will go to see the stone plate by themselves?"

From the fat man's point of view, this is not wise, it is tantamount to two crispy bodies getting into a fight.

But the doctor didn't seem to be surprised. He didn't even look at the fat man and simply replied: "It's getting dark and they can't afford to wait."

The fat man thought for a while and replied: "Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely wait. At worst, after we finish playing together after dark, these two people would just go there stupidly. If anything goes wrong, wouldn't they die?"

Jiang Cheng said casually, "That's not necessarily true."

The fat man was stunned for a moment, then looked at the doctor, blinked, and said, "Do they have any trump cards that they haven't revealed yet? One that can save their lives?"

Before he finished speaking, the fat man seemed to have thought of something and said excitedly: "Do they have that kind of life-saving white paper in their hands?"

Jiang Cheng withdrew his gaze, looked sideways at the fat man, and said after a while: "I don't know if there is a blank paper, but it's not two people who died, just that stupid woman."

"Do you think we are the only ones who are here to explore the road?" Jiang Cheng continued.
