Chapter 54 Setting a Trap

 The temple had completely collapsed, and they didn’t even know where the door was. A few people randomly found a corridor and walked in, avoiding the watery stone crevices. They discussed while walking.

The sun has already set halfway in the west, and this temple seems to be so big that it has no edge. After walking for nearly four hours, I still can't see the edge.

The gray-white ruins all around looked almost the same. If it weren't for the markings along the way, they would have thought they were lost again like in the Devil's City.

Pan Zi looked up at the sky and said with a heavy face, "We can't go any further. It's getting dark here very quickly. We have to find a safe place to camp."

A few people found a stone room with barely intact walls, cleared out a space, and pitched a tent.

In order to prevent those snakes from coming over again at night, Zhang Zhuxun and Wu Xiaoxie found a muddy puddle, dug out mud from it and pasted it on the tent.

The fat man hung up the miner's lamp, set up a small fire and hung up the iron pot. He grabbed Zhang Zhuxun's backpack and started to take out food.

He first took out all the vegetables from the self-heating rice and cooked it into a pot, then poured water from an empty can to steam the rice inside.

"Come on, come on, don't be too busy, come and try the fat man's cooking. The first bite is free, and the second bite is a treat." The fat man said cheerfully.

Zhang Zhuoxun chuckled, put down the bucket, and called Wu Xiaoxie to go over and sit down on the floor, "You are so loud in your abacus that I heard it from a long way away."

Wu Xiaoxie sniffed the fragrance in the air and said: "Whatever skills are needed to cook this thing are all ready-made. Pour in water and heat it before you can eat it."

The fat man waved his hand, "You don't understand. This adds to this my deep affection for food. You can't understand it in this state."

Everyone was so hungry that they picked up their chopsticks one after another and quickly ate up all the food.

After the meal, the fat man drank black tea brewed on the smokeless stove and continued the topic discussed before.

"Maybe Chen Wenjin has yin and yang eyes and can see the ghost of Aning's woman, so he scared her away."

Wu Xiaoxie didn't want to talk about this, so he changed the subject and said, "Let's think about how to lure Chen Wenjin out first."

"I have a way." The boy put down the can, took the water bag and took a sip of water.

Several people looked over curiously.

The little brother pointed to some soup base left in the pot and said: "Chen Wenjin has been wandering in the woods for so long, and her food reserves have long been exhausted. We can use food to lure her out."

After saying that, the younger brother secretly glanced at Zhang Zhuxun, seeming a little guilty.

Zhang Zhu listened to his serious nonsense, suppressing a smile and echoed: "I think this method is okay. Everything in the camp that can be put into the mouth has been taken away by us. She is a woman, no matter how much equipment she has to carry.

, after such a long time, it must have been almost consumed. Now we are the only ones with food in our hands within a hundred miles. Even if she doesn't come for food tonight, she will probably come in the next few days. We just need to wait quietly.

."

Wu Xiaoxie wanted to laugh a little. This method seemed a bit nonsense, and it didn't seem reliable at all. However, Fatty and Pan Zi thought this method was good, and he didn't say anything else...

Just as he was told, the fat man dug out another box of self-heating rice and stir-fried the vegetables into the pot.

"It's too rude to let the guests eat leftovers." The fat man said, "We'll treat you to something delicious and delicious. Eaters are short-tongued, so we won't be afraid of her turning her back and denying her credit when the time comes."

Lowering the fire a little, the fat man warmed the pot to the top, and then urged everyone to get into their seats quickly, and it would get dark if they didn't wait any longer.

In order to lower Chen Wenjin's vigilance, Wu Xiaoxie was specially arranged to stay not far from the fire. The other people applied anti-snake powder and mud on their bodies and disappeared into the surrounding ruins, deliberately opening holes in the only way they could pass through.

.

Everything is ready, just waiting for the fish to take the bait.

Wu Xiaoxie sat by the fire, feeling a little uneasy at first. He kept rehearsing a hundred ways to catch Chen Wenjin in his mind, but when the moon came out, Chen Wenjin's shadow did not appear.

Sigh, I'm afraid tonight's efforts will be in vain.

The surroundings were too quiet, and drowsiness gradually came over him. Wu Xiaoxie yawned, thinking of Zhang Zhu and others' suggestions that he had better fall asleep, so he gave up and leaned back against his backpack, closing his eyes.

Within two minutes of closing my eyes, I started snoring lightly.

On the treetops in the moonlight, Zhang Zhu found several people squatting behind a pile of rocks. They could no longer hold on. The wet mud shells on their bodies were clinging to them. Their clothes were already damp. The temperature dropped sharply at night. They were all wearing single clothes.

The biting cold seeped into the bones bit by bit through the pores, and I couldn't move much. It was really unbearable.

Time passed by, and no one knew what time it was, and there was no movement near the encirclement.

The fat man was always impatient, and it was not easy to endure it for such a long time. His body seemed to be crawling with fleas, and he was itching everywhere. He couldn't hold it in anymore, so he turned to Zhang Zhuxun and said "piupiu" twice.
Zhang Zhu saw that he wanted to speak and quickly waved his hand to stop him. He looked at the time on his watch through the dim moonlight.

It is now 3:27 in the morning. It is the time when the human cerebral cortex is most relaxed and when people are most asleep. Even if Chen Wenjin is going to come, he will definitely take advantage of this time.

The fat man gritted his teeth and had no choice but to keep waiting.

The moon is extremely low tonight, and the floating clouds in the sky move very fast, blocking the moonlight from time to time. The shadows cast by the surrounding buildings on the empty ground are faint, and under the fog-like moonlight, they are as quiet as ghosts.

Lying there.

Under the deep night, the stone wall looks like a huge monster with its mouth open in the abyss, patiently waiting for its prey to fall into its trap.

Although Zhang Chuxun knew that his brother must have made an agreement with Chen Wenjin, he would definitely run into the trap tonight, but Chen Wenjin, the special girl, is also very patient. Wouldn't it be better to show up earlier and let them call it a day and rest?

Fortunately it's not foggy yet.

He was silently cursing in his heart when something suddenly flashed past his eyes. Zhang Zhuxun immediately came back to his senses and stared closely at the shadow that suddenly appeared from the crack in the stone and was projected on the ground.

As if to confirm that there was no danger, the shadow moved a little bit, and soon, a thin figure covered in mud squeezed out from behind the stone crevice, and cautiously approached the fire.

When he saw a person sleeping next to the fire, the thin clay figurine immediately stopped. Zhang Zhu didn't dare to show his anger to the others, so he held his breath and waited for a while before the clay figurine continued to move.

He ran toward the iron pot with a clear goal. As soon as he stretched out his paw, Wu Xiaoxie, who was fast asleep, suddenly turned over.

The clay figurine was so frightened that he immediately squatted down on the ground, looked around for a long time, and confirmed that Wu Xiaoxie was not awake. Then he stood up again, hunched over, grabbed the vegetables in the pot and wolfed them down.
