Chapter 914: Chapter 227: Something’s Off [Double-Length]
This crime cannot be borne.
Fang Che hurriedly explained: "I was just passing by during the fight... I smelled something..."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The sword light descended like the Milky Way hanging upside down.
Embarrassment turned to anger, and the extremely shy Yan Beihan completely exploded.
Fang Che immediately fled with all his might, quickly rushing to the shore and leaping into the water, diving deep.
This time, it seems I’ve truly angered this tigress, staying to spar poses a real risk of death.
Yan Beihan stood at the shore, furiously striking the lake, causing massive waves!
Fang Che hid in the lake for an entire day and night before sneaking ashore.
Then he snuck over to take a look, and Yan Beihan’s place was almost built.
Also... surprisingly, the anger seemed to have dissipated.
Seeing Fang Che, there were no cries of attack or kill, Little Bear squeaked as it came over for a hug, and Yan Beihan did not stop it.
Just ignored them.
Fang Che let out a sigh of relief and quickly found a place to set up his tent.
Then he handled what needed handling, observed the surroundings, and prepared an escape route.
It was then he realized that this forested area was deathly silent.
There was a sense of dead stillness.
Except for the sound of the wind and the rustling of leaves, the only sounds were those of the two of them and a bear.
Fang Che frowned and immediately began to inspect.
No birds.
No mosquitoes.
No centipedes.
No snakes.
Even...
There weren’t even earthworms in the soil.
But... this was a piece of land teeming with vitality.
Fang Che suddenly felt a bone-chilling crisis. His hair stood on end, overwhelmed with an indescribable dread.
He quickly rushed out.
Yan Beihan was setting up her toilet and bathroom.
Being a clean woman, these facilities were a must, even if only staying for three days!
Especially after being mocked...
"Wait a moment."
Fang Che approached, speaking in a low tone.
"What is it?" came the icy voice.
"Something’s not right here. It’s too quiet, and... there’s no life."
Fang Che said gravely, "Maybe you noticed but didn’t pay attention... Have you heard any bird calls? Seen any birds, any flying insects? Any small crawlers, including earthworms in the soil... have you?"
Yan Beihan’s delicate face gradually grew serious, and after a brief moment of thought, she replied immediately: "No!"
Their gazes met.
Both saw the intense sense of crisis in each other’s eyes.
Something’s wrong!
Seriously wrong!
"It’s not because of poison! There’s no poison here!"
Yan Beihan was the first to make a judgment, speaking with certainty.
Then both their hearts sank, their expressions turning extremely grim.
If it were due to poison, the situation would actually be easier to handle.
Both had countless ways to get through the crisis; but if it wasn’t poison, then the danger increased exponentially!
Because this must be due to a special reason, and whether it’s due to an unknown presence, the environment, or a powerful demon beast...
Those are all far more serious matters, and with their current weak abilities, there’s no guarantee of survival or escape.
They didn’t even have a target to guard against.
"You go left, I’ll go right, we’ll circle two hundred miles and meet again outside the two hundred miles."
Fang Che immediately made a decision.
"Okay."
Yan Beihan agreed to cooperate right away, knowing that Fang Che’s decision wasn’t just for the two of them to make a simple circle. It was to scout for all abnormalities in each of their semicircle areas.
Because this two hundred-mile area is currently their temporary safe zone. Any further, and they wouldn’t even have time to escape into the water.
