Luo Shan was so angry that his face could not help but puff up when he saw that Qin Lu had taken yet another jab at him, he rolled his sleeves and then shouted after the man who was walking away, " You are scared! Your whole family is scared! How you call this Laozi a scaredy cat huh?"
" Who is a Laozi huh? Do you think that just because you are eighteen now, I cannot control you?" Ma Jiu was furious when she saw that Luo Shan was cursing like a little thug on the street, clearly, he was the young master of the Luo family, how can he use such language and tone? Sure enough that Qin Lu and that brat from the Zou family were not good company.
When Luo Shan heard Ma Jiu's scolding, he was so terrified that he jumped a foot higher and then turned to look at his aunt who was glaring at him. Luo Shan was smart enough to sense that his aunt was genuinely angry and did not dare to say anything anymore and simply smile sheepishly as he bowed his head and apologized, " so sorry about this auntie."
Ma Jiu scoffed before taking a seat on the boulder which was poking out of the ground and took out a water bottle and took a sip from it. But as she tipped her head, her gaze inadvertently fell on the sky which had gone darker all of a sudden, " Damn, what is this? What time is it currently, how come the sky is as dark as if it's already evening?"
She was sure that they left around one in the afternoon, even if they were travelling at the speed of a turtle the sky should not have turned so dark.
When Su Qian heard Ma Jiu's exclamation, her heart skipped a beat as she raised her head and looked at the sky and sure enough it was just as Ma Jiu said, the sky was slowly turning darker by the minute as if the night was falling but she was sure when they entered the forest it was only half past three, how can it suddenly turn so dark?
ƥαṇdαsηθνε|·ƈθm Su Qian was a timid woman who did not dare to provoke things which were not supposed to be provoked, what was more the talisman that she was wearing around her neck was now burning against her skin making her wince in pain. What was going on? Just what was going on?
She looked at the sky and then turned to look at Yang Yiling before asking in a trembling voice, " W..What time is it in your wristwatch?"
Yang Yiling frowned as she too lowered her head and looked down at her wrist watch but to her surprise she found out that her wrist watch seemed to have stopped working. When Yang Yiling saw that her wristwatch seemed to have stopped working she was stunned, she hurriedly pulled her smartphone out of her bag but she was surprised to see that it was no longer working instead no matter how many times she opened her phone, all she saw was a black screen and nothing else.
" Weird, why is it not working?" She mused beside her Su Qian's right eyelid started to twitch rapidly, she was quite certain that something was really off this place.
On the other side, Qin Lu who went to take a look for a space where they could rest was humming a soft tune as he looked at the widespread cover of the forest which was covering his surroundings. He looked left and then turned his head to the right when he saw nothing he scoffed lightly, " That Luo Shan and Madam Su are such scaredy cats, there is nothing here and yet they were getting worried about nothing——"
His words were interrupted when he felt someone move behind him, a frown stretched over his forehead as he turned around and looked at the grass which was moving behind him. His heart skipped a beat as he looked at the moving grass and then gulped heavily before turning his head to look around him as he opened his mouth and said, " Shan'er, is that you? I am telling you that this is not funny. Come out, I already know that it is you."
Qin Lu stared at the moving grass in front of him while taking a step behind him, his heart was feeling extremely uneasy and jumpy. The darkness around the entire forest seemed to be eating him whole, like a vicious beast which was hibernating and waiting to swallow him. The entire surroundings looked rather eerie, as if the second he was to go any closer, he might never return.
His thoughts caused Qin Lu's heart to jump as he gulped heavily and then opened his mouth in a trembling voice as he once again said, " I am… I am telling you Shan'er this is not funny, I am not scared so come out."
Just as he spoke, something large and heavy moved behind the grass before coming tumbling down.
" ARGHHHHH!"
Since Qin Lu did not go far, his scream was easily heard by the rest of the group, they all looked at each other before they turned around and ran in the direction in which Qin Lu went. Even Madam Su and the rest chased after the kids, Qin Lu's screams were full of wretched agony which made their hearts thump, even though the Qin family was not as big as the Su family, Qin Lu was still the heir of a rich family, in case something happened to him then they were sure that they might not be able to escape responsibility!
" What's wrong? What happened? Ah Lu?! You—- what are you doing?" Su Qingzhao was speechless upon witnessing the scene in front of him. When he heard Qin Lu scream, he thought that some wild animal attacked him but now that he was looking at the scene in front of him, it was one of the funniest things!
