Chapter 67 Return of the Boss

I could hear the sound approaching us and was very fast.

Yuanxiao and I looked at each other, so the two of us hid among the branches and leaves. The rustling sound was getting closer and closer to us, and my heart suddenly rose.

I stared at the branches diagonally above, holding the hand of the short knife, and began to sweat. Suddenly, a black shadow came out. Because I was too nervous, I had no time to see clearly, and before I could see clearly, I raised my hand and stabbed it.

But unexpectedly, I was stabbed in the air. At the same time, I felt my wrist being grabbed. My wrist was twisted out with force, and I immediately screamed in pain, and the short knife in my hand almost fell off.

When Lanxiao saw me being stopped, he raised his gun and was about to hit him, but as soon as he looked up, he was stunned, "I'm going, why are you?"

The black shadow also spoke in surprise: "Why are you here?"

The sound sounded very familiar, and I looked up and it turned out to be Wen Mo.

At this moment, I didn't care about being surprised because my wrist was still tightly grabbed by him. I raised my hand and punched him in the shoulder, "Ah!! Let go of your hand quickly!"

Wen Mo then let me go and continued, "Sorry, I don't know it's you."

Yuanxiao put the gun into his waist, "I said, Boss, where have you been? I told you, you almost couldn't see us."

At this time, Anaduo also came over. We found a place to stay and told him what happened after Wen Mo left from beginning to end.

Wen Mo couldn't help but frown, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen. It seems that this place is much more complicated than we thought."

I looked at Wen Mo, "Wen Mo, what did you do just now? We will be here too?"

Wen Mo told us that he had just chased the figure who had attacked us across the cliff, but they did not go directly through the swamp at that time, but ran to the left for a while before passing through. Wen Mo's description reminded me of the arrow mark carved on the trunk. Did we really choose the wrong route at that time?

So I asked Wenmo, "Did you encounter any danger when you are traveling through the swamp?"

Wen Mo then shook his head, "No, overall it went smoothly. I kept following that figure and lost his trace to the jungle at the end of the swamp."

After listening to Wen Mo's story, Lanxiao said in surprise: "Boss, is this person very powerful? You can't even catch up with you?"

Wen Mo nodded and said, "However, I also found a problem. This person is very familiar with the environment here. He can find the most suitable route, which saves a lot of time."

"This," Wen Mo's words surprised me a little, "Is there anyone living here?"

The Lantern Festival God said mysteriously: "Is it possible that the ancient ancestors and descendants of the past stayed here?"

Wen Mo shook his head, "This possibility is not great, but someone has been here before us, that's certain."

Anado asked hesitantly: "Can that person be Zhuo Qiuye?"

Wen Mo immediately shook his head, "No, I can see his figure."

When Annaduo heard what Wenmo said, she was a little disappointed in her eyes. I then asked Xiang Wenmo, "Boss, why did you find this location again?"

Wen Mo said: "I heard the gunshots, so I came over and took a look. Another very important reason is that I saw the smoke letter."

"Yanxin?" I widened my eyes, "Boss, have you seen that cigarette letter?"

Wen Mo nodded, and An Naduo, who was beside him, immediately rushed over and asked, "Then tell me, will Qiu be in real danger?"

Wen Mo, who is usually not afraid of the world, I thought he had reached the state of Mount Tai collapsed before and his face remained unchanged. However, unexpectedly, when Anaduo pounced on him, Wen Mo actually hid back in a panic. I suddenly felt funny. Wen Mo, who was usually almost omnipotent, was forced back by a woman.

I held An Naduo, "Sister, don't worry, Wenmo can't explain this kind of thing clearly."

Anaduo still looked at Wenmo with some anticipation, "You all call him the boss, and I can see that he is much better than you, maybe he can see a different meaning."

After Anaduo said this, Lanxiao and I suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Yuanxiao said with an awkward expression: "Sister, don't say that, the boss is not a god, he can't know everything!"

Wen Mo thought about it, then looked at me and said, "Your second uncle should be in no danger for the time being. He has been preparing for this for many years and should not be so easily defeated. However, it is better for us to meet him as soon as possible."

I asked Wenmo, "Where should we go down there?"

Wen Mo pondered for a moment, but shook his head and didn't say anything. Seeing him like this, we didn't continue to ask. Even if Wen Mo didn't speak, now that he came, we would be relieved. We would just follow him wherever he went.

After that, we each found a place to rest. This time, Lantern Festival finally got something. I watched him excitedly holding the bread and his hands trembled a little. Looking at his impatient look reminded me of the drug addicts I had watched on TV.

The Lantern Festival meal was eaten voraciously and rolled her eyes. I was really afraid that he would not be able to pass away in one breath. I watched him full and leaned against the tree to close his eyes to rest. Then I breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone was resting, but I was a little uneasy. For nothing else, I was just a little worried about Wen Mo, because with him, many things would be much easier to handle, and we could also avoid many detours. If we take detours here, it would be like to pass by the King of Hell.

What I worry about is that if I fall asleep and open my eyes, maybe the boy Wen Mo will disappear again. For some reason, I suddenly had this idea. It is also because of this that I dare not fall asleep. Even if I close my eyes and rest, I will occasionally open my eyes and take a look.

However, I was really tired after the tossing with the giant blind insect just now. After a while, I felt my eyelids getting heavier and gradually I didn’t know anything. I didn’t know how long I had been sleeping, but I suddenly woke up and said that I didn’t know when I fell asleep. I quickly opened my eyes and saw that Wen Mo was empty just now!

I was shocked and sat up, and looked around. Wen Mo was really gone. I couldn't help but curse in my heart. As expected, this guy left again quietly!

I stood up in anger and stood on the tree branch. I searched carefully, but I didn't find any trace of Wen Mo. Wen Mo always gave me such a strange feeling. He is like a backbone, but this backbone is not so reliable and cannot be counted on at times. However, at some critical moments, he is the key to our lives. This is really a contradictory feeling, but I suddenly felt that I was unreasonable. Why should Wen Mo protect our safety? It's just because he is better than us? To be fair, Wen Mo did much more for us than we did for him!

It is a love part for others to help us, and it is a duty not to help us. The greed of human nature always takes other people's efforts for granted, especially when others take the initiative to take action.

Thinking of this, my heart gradually calmed down, and the resentment I had just disappeared. My emotions about Wen Mo's departure this time changed from resentment to worry. I think what I should do is worry about his safety, rather than accuse him of not leaving to protect us!

It was already dawn and the sun had risen. I lay on the thick branches of the tree and looked at the swamp below. The water deep below the tree was clear and clear. You could clearly see the roots and grass roots entrenched inside, and sometimes some aquatic creatures such as small fish swim by.

I turned to look at the low swamp I passed last night. At this time, the bright sunshine shone on it, and a few birds were looking for food on the water of the swamp. I couldn't help but think of two poems by Zhu Xi, "I look for the beautiful sun and the boundless scenery is new for a while." But this is not the Si Shui River, but this is a swamp. If I just saw the "the scenery is new for a while" here at this time, who would have thought of the scene like Shura hell last night?

I looked around but still didn't see Wen Mo. My movements woke up Yuanxiao and Anatuo who were standing beside me. Yuanxiao rubbed his eyes and looked down at me lying on the tree branch. He was stunned and asked, "Zhuoran, are you doing morning exercises?"

"Train your uncle!" I ignored him, but looked up at the branches above and said, "Wenmo doesn't know where he is going, I'm looking for him."

"Boss is leaving again?" Yuanxiao said in surprise, "I thought the safety was guaranteed now."

I turned around and looked at Lanxiao and said, "Wenmo is not our bodyguard. What is his obligation to protect us?"

Yuanxiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "It makes sense."

The narrator Annaduo said, "But we are a team."

I stepped on the dense tree branches like a staircase, and slowly climbed up, saying without looking back: "Since we are a team, we also have the obligation to protect Wenmo." I wanted to nag for a few more words, but I still shut up. What qualifications do I have to say to others? When I discovered that Wenmo was missing, the first thing I thought of was not about whether he would have any accidents, but about resentment from him. Why didn't he stay to help us? It was really too much!

Yuanxiao asked from behind, "Hey, where are you going?"

I spoke and said, "I'll go to a higher position to see if I can find where Wenmo has gone."

After hearing what I said, Anaduo and Yuanxiao both stood up, "Let's go together too."

I was about to respond when suddenly a branch above swayed and a person jumped off from it. It was Wen Mo.
