Chapter 78: Small truth

Views:

I sneered twice, this time there was really no way out.

"Gu Yu!"

"You idiot!"

The monsters approached me mercilessly and stretched out their claws.

At the moment when I should have felt completely hopeless, a sense of disobedience spontaneously arose in my heart.

That's right, a sense of incongruity.

From the moment I entered this forest, I felt a sense of disobedience. Now that life and death are at stake, I desperately mobilized all my brain cells to think.

What is it, what is wrong? There is something that is ignored by all of us, because of the sudden crisis, there is something that I did not notice!

The monster approached little by little, and I retreated in vain while thinking desperately.

what's... what's...

correct!

At this moment, I suddenly remembered.

Li Qiao, where is that little girl named Li Qiao? I turned around and saw that Li Qiao was squatting in a small corner, holding her head in fear, crying softly. But for some reason, those terrifying monsters didn't attack her.

In an instant, many overlooked details came back to my mind.

Little girl in a blue dress. But now it is late autumn, and the few of us have already put on long sleeves and coats.

She said she survived on the food and water in the car, but when we went to check, don't talk about water, and I didn't even find an empty water bottle around.

The "naturally formed" enchantment in the forest, the "classic" car, and the fist that just punched empty...

yes. So this is ah. I looked at Li Qiao with a trace of pity in my eyes.

This girl must be very, very scared.

"Gu Yu, run!" Su Xiaoyun yelled heart-piercingly.

The shouts of my companions came from the other end, and I showed a smile, stood up straight, and let the monster pounce on me.

"Gu Yu!!"

It's fine. If my inference is correct...

The monster's sharp claws suddenly stretched out towards me, I closed my eyes, only felt a gust of wind passing by my ears, but the pain that should have been there did not come.

I opened my eyes. Just as I thought, the monster's sharp claws passed through my body like transparent, but it didn't cause me any harm.

The others were all stunned when they saw this scene.

"Gu, Gu Yu?"

Su Xiaoyun murmured, "What's going on?"

I breathed a sigh of relief, cold sweat dripped from my body, staggered a bit, and sat on the ground.

"It's okay, we are safe." I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said to them.

"You, what did you say?" Liang Kaifeng swallowed, walked over tentatively, and touched the monster with his hand.

Nothing was touched.

"It's a lie, right?" Liang Kaifeng said in surprise, "It's fake!"

"What?" Bai jumped over with an incredulous expression, similarly, his body passed through those monsters, "What's going on here?"

Although those monsters as big as mountains still roared and smelled badly, they could no longer threaten us.

"I should ask the girl over there." I stood up and walked towards Xiaoqiao in the corner.

Li Qiao crouched in the corner, her body trembling with fear, and she could still hear her choking, "Don't, don't come here... It's scary, don't come here, don't eat me..."

"Xiaoqiao." I knelt down in front of the little girl and called her name softly, "Xiaoqiao, don't be afraid. Brother is here, look up and see him, okay?"

Xiao Qiao was still sobbing, but slowly raised her head.

"Don't be afraid. It's okay, we are here with you." I comforted again.

The little girl stopped crying slowly, and then a miracle appeared. All the monsters around us with teeth and claws gradually became transparent, and then slowly disappeared.

"What the hell is going on here." Shi Yitong said in a daze.

I ignored other people's questions. Instead, she looked at Xiaoqiao intently, and said seriously, "Xiaoqiao, you said you drove here with your parents, right?"

Xiao Qiao sobbed and nodded.

"Then can you tell me. Do you remember when you came here?" I asked word by word.

Xiaoqiao showed a confused look, "I don't know, I don't remember... I don't know."

"It's probably summer." I pointed to the blue skirt on Xiaoqiao's body, "You're wearing a summer dress, but it's late autumn now. Don't you feel cold wearing so little clothes?"

The expression on Xiao Qiao's face became even more confused, and then her breathing became rapid, "I don't remember... I don't know, I don't remember!"

"Calm down, Xiaoqiao." I held Xiaoqiao's face to let her look at me, and said in a gentle tone, "Next I want to ask you a very, very important question, you must think about it carefully, and then answer me seriously, May I?"

Xiao Qiao nodded confusedly.

"You said that your parents were all eaten by monsters. So how did you escape?" I asked word by word, "The car door was broken and the windows were smashed by monsters. So hide in How did you escape from the car? Do you remember?"

"I don't know..." Xiaoqiao murmured, "I... I..."

In this remote and barren mountain, facing a monster as big as a mountain, a lonely little girl...

"I... didn't escape." Xiaoqiao looked at me in confusion, showing a puzzled expression, and repeated, "I didn't escape. The monster ate my father and took my mother away. Then it... used its teeth and broke my neck."

"So that's how it is, that's how it is." Bai murmured.

"Didn't escape?" Liang Kaifeng raised his voice in fear, "That, doesn't that mean that this girl is..."

"Dead." I stood up in front of Xiaoqiao, and said calmly, "Xiaoqiao and her parents probably came here a long time ago. The car broke down halfway, and the family of three were killed by that huge scary monster." eaten."

"That's right." Bai took my words and continued, "But the little girl was too frightened. The fright she felt at that moment before she was alive caused her soul to wander in this forest. Not only that, but this fear is still unknown. Unknowingly, an enchantment that traps us has been created, and phantoms of those monsters have been created. Xiaoqiao has been chasing by her own fear in the forest like this. That’s why the model of the car is so old and the car is so old. Shangcai has nothing, Xiaoqiao only wears a summer skirt... "

"How could this be..." Su Xiaoyun murmured, looking at Xiaoqiao, her eyes turned red.

"Am I... already dead?" Xiaoqiao was silent for a long time, then raised one hand, shook it and then released it, "Is that so?"

"I'm sorry." I squatted down again and stroked Xiao Qiao's head.
