Returning from the abyss

Chapter 136 Mirage Dusk
After packing all the seemingly important things, Lu Ning pulled out the dagger, squatted down beside a young pig-faced man, reached out and pressed his head, the dagger sank into the back of the head, but the man disappeared after a while breath.

"Kill them all?" Zhao Chenshuang asked.

"Dead people won't be reset. Killing them now is the end of the game, and we are undoubtedly in a hostile position." Lu Ning glanced at Zhao Chenshuang coldly, "Or are you going to torture me?"

"Language barrier, why torture? Why can't these guys learn our language like those murlocs?"

Zhao Chenshuang complained, but his hands quickly broke a man's neck.

It didn't take much time to execute such an execution. When these people died, they still had angry and resentful eyes, but they didn't have any fear at all. This also made Lu Ning feel a little weird.

However, the four still needed to return to the hunter's hut near the mountain village, after all, they had agreed to meet there at dusk.

"Haha... I didn't expect to be unable to fight, I am really disappointed."

"You should be glad that you can't fight. We almost never fought these two in three-on-two." Mo Lianren was not as arrogant as Zhao Chenshuang.

There was no accident on the way back. At about four o'clock, Lu Ning and his party had already seen the hunter's cabin that Shu Xingruo had discovered.

Different from the previous "Fourth Brother", the house built by "Third Sister" is obviously stronger and more durable. Already covered with ivy.

There were two people sitting on the bluestone in front of the house, Pang Shaotong and Yin Mai, young and old, were chatting in low voices.Seeing Lu Ning and the others coming down from the mountain, Pang Shaotong jumped off the bluestone and ran into the house to inform, while Yin Mai waited for them with a smile.

"Old Yin, have you already looked for the mountain?"

"I've looked for it. We've brought all the things we can get. Ms. Ye is sorting out inside." Yin Mai chuckled, "This is not something I'm good at, so I came out to take charge of the sentry. Is your trip going well?"

"I found the place, but there was no one there. Let Ye Tisi take a look at some harvest." Zhao Chenshuang said impatiently.

"Go in, girl Ning took Miss Su to the hunter's cabin, and she may not come back until later. You can wait a little longer."

"What is she doing at the hunter's cabin? Those guys are very dangerous!"

Lu Ning was slightly startled. She absolutely didn't want to meet Shi Xiaolang a second time, at least until she mastered the same level of power, she didn't want to meet at all.Now Ning Yeyi actually took the initiative to send it to the door?

"You have to be clear. Everyone likes to think in different directions. Ning girl should also have her own habit of solving puzzles. As long as she doesn't cause trouble to the team, there is no need to bother her." Yin Mai tapped his leg , smiled and said, "Don't worry too much, that girl knows it well."

Now that it's all said and done, Lu Ning couldn't argue anymore, nodded to Yinmai and walked into the room.

On a long wooden table were several books at this time, as well as some weapons, pieces of wood, and clothing.Since Mo Xiren passed by, there must have been no good things left behind, so the things on the table looked dilapidated.Yetisi was standing in front of the table at this time, comparing left and right with a book in each hand.

After entering the room, Lu Ning said hello, then took out the powder, stones, planks and iron rings from the backpack and put them on the table.

"So you took a pig-faced man's lair, and then found these things?"

"Another point."

Zhao Chenshuang also found similar items from several other pig-faced people. The only thing that was found was an old man with a horn ornament made of shells.

"There are also these two masks. They will actively grow on people, so don't touch them with bare skin." Lu Ning finally took out the mask, and the corners of Ye Tisi's mouth couldn't help twitching when she saw it.

"You really think I'm omnipotent?"

"But you are the one who is good at this field among us." Lu Ning said seriously.

Yetis pinched the center of her eyebrows, her face was full of pain and happiness.

"You really put a lot of pressure on me..."

Then she kicked everyone out, saying that to solve the mysteries of these things, one needs to think quietly.When Lu Ning went outside, she found that Deng Wei and the rest of the people had also come back together. They went up the mountain to hunt and gather. Although they did not return with a full load like the hunters, they brought back a lot of food, and even some bamboo tubes. Fill back with clean water.

"Is it okay to light a fire on the mountain?"

Zhao Chenshuang asked.

"Hunters won't come here, and villagers won't go deep into the mountains. The only thing to worry about is the pig-faced people, but so far there are no traces of them appearing during the day."

After Lu Ning nodded, Deng Wei and the others quickly skinned and decomposed the prey, set up a fire and started to roast the meat.

The sun was gradually turning to the west, and it seemed that Yetisi's work would continue for a while, and everyone outside took advantage of this rare leisure time to eat barbecue and chat.

"How old are you, Lu Ning?" Deng Wei is quite a talkative person, even if he got cold from Zhao Chenshuang, he didn't care too much, and soon came to chat with Lu Ning again.

"21, when he died." Lu Ning took a piece of meat from Deng Wei. He is worthy of being a fan of outdoor survival. At least the level of barbecue is quite good. The outside is slightly burnt, but the inside is still tender and juicy. It has some flavor without seasoning.

"You are young, it's a pity." Deng Wei smiled, "I heard that you were the first person to discover the method of resetting the time, and you went back to save us, but now I have time to say thank you to you."

"It's all a coincidence, just good luck."

"It's a great act for a lucky person to be willing to share with others." Deng Wei pointed to the two brothers squatting by the fire to take care of the meat, "We met by chance at first, and then we like to date went."

"Then what are you guys..."

"Surviving in the wild, accidents are normal. The three of us are all single, so it's okay for me. There are not many close people, and they are all friends. Even Huzi's family still has someone to take care of. I feel guilty, so no matter what, I have to find a way to send him back."

"What about yourself?"

"It's good to be alive. I'm actually quite happy to be able to explore places that I didn't dare to think about before. Lu Ning, I know you are all smart and can think of things we can't think of, but this... this is an upgrade. , can’t just leave a way for one kind of people, right? I don’t ask for anything else, at least take care of my brother.” Deng Wei actually had a flattering look on his face.

"But I can't protect anyone. If I really want to fight, I even need your protection."

"One thing I have learned the most here is not to underestimate anyone." Deng Wei clenched his fists, "Because we are all ordinary people, no matter how hard we exercise, our bodies are extremely fragile—you see Now, not every scene will generously give you a superhuman body, and in this way, we are extremely easy to die because of a little mistake or a little misjudgment."

"What you said is the same for us."

Several familiar faces flashed across Lu Ning's mind.

"Even people who follow the intellectual route can never guarantee that their judgments are [-]% accurate. On the contrary, because there are too many clues to deal with, a single mistake will cause the whole game to lose. At this point, even Cheng Wu Ling is the same."

Deng Wei was a little puzzled.

"The analysis you saw yesterday was all based on the background of the world view of the whole scene. This is the characteristic of her thinking, and she didn't say a word about what we should do in the middle, because she also knows that it can't be filled by planning. Yes. Neither she nor I, what we are doing is not to complete a correct course, but to draw up a fallback after failure-as we are doing now."

At this time, the door of the hunter's hut opened, and Ye Tisi walked out of the room with her forehead pressed. She looked extremely tired, but her eyes were a little bright.This movement also made everyone's eyes turn, and all voices fell silent, waiting for Yetisi to speak.

But when she was about to speak, her expression suddenly froze, and then she raised her hand, and pointed to the distant mountain over the heads of the crowd.

"Then...is that...the hilltop castle?"

Lu Ning turned her head so fast that she almost twisted her neck.

She looked in the direction of Yetis' finger, and in the distance was a mountain under the setting sun. The distribution of trees on it was sparser than that of some nearby mountains, but because that mountain had many aboveground rock faults, it was not a problem. Very strange.

But there is no shadow of the building.

"what?"

"Where? Which mountain?"

"Where is the castle?"

People turned their heads to look around, but found nothing.Seeing this reaction from everyone, Ye Tisi couldn't help but rubbed her eyes, and then tried to look far away again.

The expression on her face was full of surprise and incomprehension, and the information revealed from it was——

"Why can't you see it?"

=======================
Mo Xiren was sitting on a huge stone chair, leaning forward, resting her chin with one hand, and between the fingers of the other hand was a glass test tube the size of a little finger. The dark red liquid inside flowed continuously with her fingers. Turn and shake, but can't leave the slightest trace on the test tube wall.

Opposite her was the same stone chair, and beside the stone chair stood a well-built woman, who was reaching out to adjust something on the back of the chair.

"Hey, just adjust it to the same height as your head." Mo Xiren called out to the woman opposite.

"Are you really going to try this guy?"

The woman turned her face to the side. It was Su Shengge, a teammate that Lu Ning and the others should be familiar with.

"Dream into the ceremony, if you make it through, won't you make a lot of money?"

"Are you really confident, or are you already crazy?"

Su Shengge snorted coldly.

There is a distance of about five meters between the two chairs, and a small cup-shaped sculpture in the middle.In addition, in addition to the chairs where these two people are, there are two other stone chairs and this pair form the four endpoints of a square.

"I'm really not as crazy as you... Actually, I voluntarily sent you to the door for a second time in order to come here quickly... Whether your body can hold it is still a problem."
