After muttering these words next to my ear, the retard immediately waded into the water and swam towards the other side.

Looking at his back, I recalled what he said just now and felt that this person had become even more mysterious. Thus, after I went into the water, I didn't head directly towards the other side. Instead, I headed towards the corpse of the giant snake at the bottom of the water.

Although the giant snake's body was no longer dried up after soaking in the river, its skeleton was still lying on a rock at the bottom of the river. When I entered the belly of the snake corpse, I could clearly see that the stomach of the giant snake seemed to have swallowed something.

It would be reasonable to say that the first ambush Xu Man and I encountered in the woods last night was caused by him. After all, no matter how fast the wild boar was, it would not be able to take Xu Man away in an instant without even making a sound.

However, if this thing was the one who ambushed us on the tree, then that would explain why Xu Man suddenly disappeared from behind me. Furthermore, even if he was bitten on the head by this big thing, he wouldn't make a sound.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little sad for Xu Man. But it was only for a moment, and I had no choice but to swim towards the shore. As the medicinal properties of the herb were obviously weakening, the leeches started to rush towards me once more after smelling my scent.

After we went ashore and dried off our clothes, we followed behind Dong Wan'er and headed deeper into the forest. I also asked her about Dong Hao and Liu Jie.

However, her answer was that she had received a message from the old monk after escaping from her room. According to the news, Dong Hao had been in danger and needed to find the Everlasting Realm at top speed to save him.

Why did everything have to do with this Eternal Rest? Could this thing really be as godly as the legends said, able to cure all kinds of diseases? And these hidden elders were just so boring. Every one of them had to have terminal illness to play around with? Or was it like what Elder Zhang said, that someone had found Golden Man, who was left behind by Dong Zhuo, and wanted to use the Everlasting Jue to obtain the secret?

But no matter what, these things have nothing to do with me. What I need to do now is to get the Eternal Rest before them, so that they can guarantee the Zhang Family's safety and not cause trouble for me.

However, it was noon. When we arrived at a mountain top, preparing to light a fire to cook rice, Big Board suddenly found me. Moreover, he frowned deeply as he said that he seemed to be able to smell a faint scent of blood along the way.

"It's a light smell, but I'm sure it's the smell of human blood, and it's something that only me and Hua Zi have. However, I didn't feel anything strange when I saw that everyone was fine, so I didn't say anything. "

After hearing what he said, I started to have some doubts, "Only the two of you have it on you?"

"Yes, that's why I'm surprised. Moreover, the wound I got from the encounter with the Arrow Snake should have long been covered in scabs after such a long time. "

After saying that, the large board immediately shows a bitter face while looking at me. The meaning behind that is clear to me.

However, logically speaking, if Dong Wan'er or some lunatic had done something to them, the other person shouldn't have been able to find out. Besides, we are of no threat to them, and they have no reason to harm us!

As he was feeling puzzled, Hua Zi, who was lighting a fire at the side, suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. The smooth rock he was sitting on earlier was quickly spreading dark red blood!

Seeing this, my heart immediately leaped into my throat, and without saying anything further, I rushed towards the gun in my waist!

It was impossible for such a smooth stone to injure Hua Zi. Furthermore, he was from the military, so he wasn't that weak! Now that Hua Zi was in such a situation, it was obvious that someone was messing with him!

However, just as I was about to pull out the gun, the crazy man reached out and pulled off his pants, then pulled off his clothes. But when Hua Zi's clothes and pants were torn apart by the deranged brat, the scene on his body made my scalp instantly numb!

Because at this moment, on Hua Zi's back and buttocks, there were dozens of black things densely packed together. If it wasn't leeches, what else could it be?

No wonder Big Board said that he smelled a faint scent of blood. The moment that Hua Zi sat down, he let out a blood-curdling screech. So it was these things!

When he saw the scene on Hua Zi's body, his face immediately went pale. He looked at me as if he was crying, "Brother Zhou …"

As long as it was not someone playing tricks on them, it was fine. It was just a few leeches that were born on land, so it didn't really matter.

After relaxing a little, I dragged the large board into the forest at the top of the mountain. Under the cover of the trees, I ripped off his clothes.

His condition was slightly better than that of Huajie. Although there were quite a few leeches on his back and buttocks, those leeches didn't even reach the point where they would explode.

As the hot cigarette butts approached the heads of the leeches, the leeches immediately shrank their heads and began to fall off the backs of the boards.

I don't know why these terrestrial leeches only stuck to the two of them. What about me? Even if Dong Wan'er and Epilogue are both people who have strange arts, what about me? Is it really as they say, I'm just born lucky?

Just as I was puzzled, a thought struck me and I thought that the cigarette butt had accidentally burned him. Unexpectedly, he shakily stretched out his hand and pointed towards the top of a tree about 20 meters away from us.

"Brother Zhou." You, you see, what, what is that? "

Hearing that, I couldn't help but curiously look in the direction that the big board was pointing at.

Following the direction of his finger, I saw the treetops of a relatively tall tree swaying, as if someone had climbed up there and wanted us to discover him.

After swaying for a moment, the treetop came to a halt. Looking through the gaps between the leaves, it was obvious that there was someone clinging onto the treetops!

Why is there someone else? Was it sent by the old monk? Or were they the subordinates of the person who pretended to be Xu Man? Why would he let us find out and not come straight to us? Is it because we have enemies among us? Was he reminding me to be careful?

Just as I was wondering in my heart, I saw that person slide down the tree in an extremely strange manner! It looked like a snake, twisting its body around a tree trunk, which made it look extremely strange!

Furthermore, when that figure passed by a spot where the leaves were sparse, I was shocked to see that it was actually Xu Man!
