"There are so many houses here but no one is there. It's really scary to see."

Shu Qingqing looked at the empty rooms one after another and touched the hot sky, but she got goosebumps on her arms.

The surrounding woods are shady, and the gust of wind that blows from time to time brings the coolness of the depths of the woods.

The noisy chirping of cicadas can be heard in one's ears, which adds to the feeling of boredom in one's heart.

The wind is cool, but the sun's rays are very hot on my body.

For the sake of Thunder, Shang Duojin could only keep up with Shu Qingqing when he moved.

He struck up a conversation with her unnaturally: "It's true that something is not right, but not far away are the houses where a large number of citizens live. If you think about this, you don't have to be so afraid."

Besides, they also have their companion beasts following them, so if anything unexpected happens, they won't be alone.

Shu Qingqing thought so, and the uneasiness in her heart quickly subsided a little, and she turned to ask Shang Duojin: "Then what do you plan to do after you find out about Wan Shishi's anomaly? Without her as your baby partner, you, as your

The only son in the family will definitely need to find another marriage partner."

This is true.

Shang Duojin scratched his hair irritably and said depressedly: "You don't have to worry about this. I'm only eighteen years old. I'm still young. I'm not twenty-eight years old anymore. There's no need to be so anxious."

Although he said this, Shang Duojin couldn't help but feel troubled when he thought that when he reached his age, he might have to find a random woman to be with under the urging of his parents and sisters.

When that time comes, he at least hopes that the girl he is with is the one he likes and likes him.

For example, someone like Shu Qingqing...

Just when this idea popped into his mind, Shang Duojin's pupils widened instantly, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

What's going on? Why is he starting to think about such strange things again...

Shu Qingqing felt unhappy when she saw Shang Duojin suddenly distanced herself from her and looked at her as if she was a dangerous person.

"Master Shang, what are you so crazy about? You..."

"Crack!!"

Before Shu Qingqing finished speaking, her attention was attracted by the sound of a porcelain jar breaking in the empty room to the south.

She frowned and looked at Shang Duojin, then got down to business: "There was a sound coming from over there just now, right?"

Shang Duojin also heard it, and after clearing away the random thoughts in his mind, he nodded: "There is indeed a sound. Would you like to go over and have a look?"

Maybe there is someone living in the room where the sound came from.

"No need to ask, aren't we just here to find someone?"

The two agreed, and Shu Qingqing locked her eyes on the room where the abnormal noise occurred, and led Shang Duojin along the gravel road to the place.

The house in front of you is a three-story old villa. There are a lot of ivy crawling around the villa.

There are a lot of weeds growing inside the house, and you can also see traces of wild animals making their homes inside.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like anyone is still living there.

Realizing this, Shu Qingqing grabbed the collar of the young man who was still trying to walk inside, with a solemn expression: "Something's not right. Don't act rashly yet. I'll call Qiao Qiao and ask."

While the two were talking, they did not notice two masses of black energy slowly approaching from behind them.

Little Green Snake Thunder is a dependent beast, and its senses are much stronger than those of humans like Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing.

Soon Heiqi noticed something was wrong when he was still twenty steps away from them, and reminded him loudly: "It seems like something is coming. Master, be careful!"

As soon as it finished speaking, the black air that was still moving at a gentle speed suddenly began to accelerate, and its height also dropped a lot.

Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing both turned around when they heard the sound, but saw nothing.

But I did have a lot of goosebumps on my body, and I felt a chill on my back.

"Thunder, where did you feel it? Is it wrong?"

Shang Duojin shook the goosebumps on his body and suddenly wanted to run away and leave here.

As soon as they finished asking, the black energy, which was only five steps away from them, escaped directly to the ground, and then locked on the two heat sources on the ground and penetrated through the soles of their feet.

Just as Lei Lei was about to speak, he saw Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing freeze at the same time, and then they both fell into a coma with their bodies limp.

It wanted to call for help, but the next moment, the black mist emerged from Shang Duojin and the others' bodies and ran straight towards it, knocking it unconscious.

.........

When Qiao Mei and Ao Cang came back, they looked around but didn't see Shang Duojin or Shu Qingqing, and their worries grew bigger and bigger.

She lowered her head and looked at the optical phone she called the two of them, but it was still unanswered.

[Three Bonds] Neither of them responded to the messages sent in the group chat.

By the time she got here, she was basically sure that something had happened to the two of them.

The girl pursed her lips and looked to her side worriedly, and asked Ao Cang: "Cang Cang, can you find their location?"

He is a god and should be able to know where Shang Duojin and the others are.

Ao Cang did not give a definite answer first, but just said, let him try it first.

Lai Tan is a god like him. Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that if we find Lai Tan, we can find Shu Qingqing and the others.

Wanting to understand this, Ao Cang began to release his magical power and look for traces of Laiqin.

Sure enough, he discovered that there was some death energy belonging to Laiqin left at the scene.

"I found it, An An, give me your hand."

Now only he can see the places where Laiqin left traces.

But after Qiao Mei held her hand with his, both of them could see it.

Qiao Mei put her hand on Ao Cang's big hand, and after being led by him and interlocking with his fingers, she instantly discovered that there were some scattered traces of black energy in front of her eyes.

The traces extend all the way to the deep mountain forest behind. It seems that Laiqin took Shang Duojin and others in this direction.

Under such circumstances, if you follow him so recklessly, you will definitely fall into Laiqin's trap.

If you don't follow, the possibility that Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing's lives will be in danger will increase by one point.

After weighing the balance, Qiao Mei decided to go with her.

But before that, she didn't forget to call in a few reinforcements.

She called them Xu Heyu and Zuo Chenxing respectively. Not to mention that both of them happened to be in the Empire Star, and their strength was not too bad.

Especially Xu Heyu.

He is the male protagonist of the world in the book. With him around, the male protagonist's halo may come out and help Shang Duojin and the others survive the disaster.

As for Xu Wenfeng and Xu Hui, Qiao Mei did not plan to tell them the matter too quickly, so as not to worry them.

Ao Cang looked at the locations she sent to Xu Heyu and Zuo Chenxing respectively. His golden eyes flickered and he shook her arm: "An'an, you don't need to find them, I can protect you and your friends."

As for his own safety, it is not within his scope of consideration.
