Chapter 52 Four people don’t look back

Su Ran was busy expressing his position to the boss. When he heard Hua Rongqi's urging, he responded and said, "Why are you anxious? This well will not run away."

With that said, Su Ran also took steps towards the direction of the well.

But she had just taken two steps when she heard Hua Rongqi's voice coming from behind: "Su Ran!"

Su Ran subconsciously wanted to turn around, but as soon as she turned her head a little, she quickly realized something was wrong.

——Hua Rongqi is in front of her! ! !
Who was the person calling her from behind, using the voice of Hua Rongqi?
The fear behind this was self-evident. Su Randeng immediately thought of the saying "four people don't look back" in the woods. What made her collapse even more was that she saw Hua Rongqi in front of her and seemed to hear someone calling him. , and was about to turn back.

Su Ran immediately shouted: "Don't move!!!"

This shout instantly drowned out the sound Hua Rongqi heard just now. He listened to Su Ran's words reflexively, stood there motionless, and then asked: "What's wrong?"

"Don't look back!" Su Ran didn't know what Hua Rongqi heard, but based on what she heard, she guessed that the two of them heard similar things.

Su Ran didn't have time to explain too much, so she could only stabilize Hua Rongqi: "Don't move yet. No matter who calls you, don't look back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ran couldn't help but complain in her heart:

[Why did I just preset this scene in my mind and it really happened the next second? 】

【damned! Am I a prophet? ! 】

Su Ran was even able to take advantage of the hardship and make jokes at every opportunity:
【God! Bet money! Kill me! 】

The three people present had no way of knowing Su Ran's inner story, but they all heard Su Ran say not to look back.

This sentence was said at the right time, because almost at the same moment, they all heard the sound of someone calling their name.

What Yuchi Suihua heard was Xie Shiqing's voice, whose tone was as sticky as a ghost.

Xie Shiqing heard Su Ran's voice. He thought the same as Su Ran: This person was still standing in front of him, how could he suddenly run behind and call him.

Xie Shiqing quickly thought of what Su Ran said in the woods, "Four people will never look back." Now add Captain Chi Suihua, aren't they just four people.

"What's wrong?" Yuchi Suihua's voice came from the front.

At this moment, Yuchi Suihua also noticed something was wrong.

According to Xie Shiqing's character, how could this person call him for no reason.

In addition, Su Ran suddenly said don't move and don't look back no matter what you hear.

Yuchi Suihua had never thought that the other party wanted to harm others behind his back. After all, leaving his back to others, especially Xie Shiqing, was a very dangerous move.

But he soon gave up this speculation, for no other reason than the sound of someone calling his name sounded in his ears again.

This time it was Su Ran.

But at the same time, he clearly heard Su Ran talking to Hua Rongqi at the top of his voice.

This was equivalent to having two Su Ran talking in his ears.

One Su Ran's tone was gentle and caring, so soft that it could drip water; the other Su Ran was almost roaring with all her strength, wishing that her voice could penetrate the entire mountain.

Although the former was very tempting, Yuchi Suihua could tell which one was the real Su Ran just by thinking with his feet.

I have to admit that Su Ran's "Hedong Lion's Roar" trick is quite effective. At least they can easily identify the real Su Ran.

The roar in my ears continues:
Su Ran was still yelling: "Don't move! Didn't I tell you not to move!"

Hua Rongqi was also shouting: "My neck is sore! Let me pinch it!"

Su Ran shouted: "Your voice is all in my ears! Can you speak louder! I can't recognize you anymore!"

Huarong Qi shouted: "I'm okay! I still have the voices of Xie Shiqing and Yuchi Suihua!"

In fact, Hua Rongqi is not that good.

Because the voice of Yuchi Suihua in his ear did not directly call him by name, but called him "Hua Niang" in the same tone as when the two were "in love".

Hua Rongqi: "..."

Thanks for the invitation, I’m not good at all!
Just because Yuchi Suihua himself was here, he couldn't complain, so he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

In Yuchi Suihua's eyes, he is Hua Niang's brother now, and the "Hua Niang" sounds in his ears now sound so terrifying!
Hua Rongqi had no choice but to feel aggrieved silently.

Well... Hua Rongqi is more willing to bear it alone than to be chased by Yuchi Suihua after knowing the truth.

Hua Rongqi's neck is really sore. Even if he can't look back, why don't he let him squeeze it with his hands?

Hua Rongqi shouted again: "Can't you really move? My neck is really sore!"

Su Ran was puzzled, but yelled back: "Move! I didn't say you can't move!"

Hua Rongqi: "Didn't you tell me not to move?!"

Su Ran: "I thought you were going to turn around, that's why you said you couldn't move."

[Hua Rongqi’s move just now really looked like he wanted to turn around! 】

Hua Rongqi: "..."

Hua Rongqi grinded his teeth and ignored the words "Hua Niang" that kept ringing in his ears, and Xie Shiqing's shouts of "Happy Rain".

Hua Rongqi knew for the first time that having many code names was so painful.

Su Ran's neck was also sore. She was raising her head slightly to make her neck more comfortable, when someone held down one of her shoulders.

Su Ran: "!!!"

[In addition to calling names, is there such a realistic touch? ! 】

Before Su Ran could continue to think, Xie Shiqing's low voice came: "Don't move."

Of course Su Ran had no intention of moving, she was just shocked.

After hearing Xie Shiqing's voice, it became clear that it was not some illusion to deceive people, and Su Ran's tense body relaxed.

When Su Ran was stunned, Xie Shiqing had already walked to her side, and even moved forward slightly.

Now Su Ran could see him without looking back.

Everyone is standing in his line of sight, which greatly satisfies Su Ran's sense of security.

[At least I no longer have to worry about whether my teammates are calling me or not. 】

This time it’s okay, just ignore them all.

Xie Shiqing was still walking forward, and it seemed that he was going to the wellhead.

Su Ran looked ahead and shivered inexplicably, but still followed Xie Shiqing step by step.

When the two passed by Hua Rongqi, Hua Rongqi followed behind even though he didn't know why.

Until four people formed a circle and stood around the mouth of the well.

This arrangement allows everyone to see their teammates in front of them without looking back.

Well... let's call them teammates first.

"Is this the date you were talking about?" Hua Rongqi pointed to the string of dates in front of him.

Xie Shiqing said "hmm" and translated for them: "July 15th."

"Wow -" Su Ran exclaimed.

The other three people looked at her at the same time in tacit understanding.

Su Ran: "...?"

【ah? What do you want me to do? 】

"What do you think I'm doing?" Su Ran thought and asked directly. In the end, it was Hua Rongqi who asked everyone's doubts: "What happened at this time?"

What else do you know?

Hua Rongqi has changed his view of Su Ran a lot after going through this illusion.

This man seemed...to know a lot of things.

Originally, Hua Rongqi didn't really believe in the saying "No one should enter the temple", but after Su Ran finished speaking, they encountered another situation where they had to hug a tree, and then they saw a well.

Until now. I heard a voice calling them again, trying to get them to turn back.

As early as Su Ran discovered how not to be noticed by the monster with a human face, Hua Rongqi completely believed Su Ran's words.

Now that Su Ran suddenly had such a big reaction to this date, Hua Rongqi naturally thought that Su Ran had discovered something was wrong.

Turns out, his feeling was right.

Su Ran showed a strange expression and said: "The fifteenth day of July is the Ghost Festival, don't you know?"

Hua Rongqi: (⊙o⊙)…

I really don’t know.

In this world, there is no such thing as Ghost Festival.

Hua Rongqi's reaction made Su Ran realize the problem. I'm afraid this date just happened to fall on July 15th.

But is it really such a coincidence?
It was Yuchi Suihua who took the initiative to ask: "How did Sister Ran know that this date is the Ghost Festival?"

"Before, when I was homeless and had nothing to do, I just liked to listen to the stories told by the old people in the village." Su Ran answered quickly, as if this was the truth, "I heard these from them."

Xie Shiqing raised his eyebrows when he heard Su Ran's words, but didn't say anything.

Listen to the stories told by the village elders?
Didn’t you say this was passed down from our ancestors?

Ah--

Yuchi Suihua didn't think anything else. He only knew that Prince Su's Mansion had recognized a little princess, but he didn't know what the little princess had gone through when she was away from home.

Or to put it more accurately, he doesn't care and doesn't care.

So naturally he doesn't know those details.

Su Ran's explanation was very credible. Folks who couldn't cultivate really liked to make up these rumors, so Yuchi Suihua didn't take it seriously.

"But it's already August now?" Hua Rongqi undoubtedly cared about what Su Ran said, which made him even more confused. "The initial climate and date of the illusion are very similar to the outside world."

For example, if it is autumn outside now, then the initial climate in this fantasy world will also be autumn.

For another example, it was early September when they came in. When they first entered the illusion, the date inside was also around early September, so there wouldn't be much difference.

At least it won’t be the gap from July to September.

"Could it be the day of the sacrifice?" Su Ran asked, expressing his suspicion.

As he said that, Su Ran took a step forward, stared at the bottom of a dark well, and asked, "Since it is a dry well, what is it like under the well?"

"Are you crazy?!" Hua Rongqi heard the meaning of Su Ran's words and didn't know whether to praise Su Ran for being brave or to persuade her to be rational.

Su Ran shrugged, spread his hands and said innocently: "Then do you have any other ideas?"

They are almost at the end of their rope now.

Hua Rongqi had no choice, and Xie Shiqing and Yuchi Suihua didn't seem to think of any other way out.

"Then how to get down?" Yuchi Suihua also looked at the bottom of the well, "We don't know how deep this well is."

This problem is easy to solve. Su Ran pointed to the other side of the woods and said, "When I came here, I saw there were vines there, which can be made into ropes."

Now that we have the tools, we still need a tool man.

Hua Rongqi shook his head immediately: "I'm afraid of the dark, and I'm also afraid of heights, so I won't go!"

He would never go to something like this that requires him to act alone!
Hua Rongqi had already made up his mind to follow Su Ran and not leave even a step.

This person's attitude is already so determined, so he can't forcefully push people in.

But Su Ran was not within their consideration.

The reason is very simple, it is still a matter of skill.

In the absence of other safety measures, grabbing the vines with your hands to enter the bottom of the well, and even later grabbing the vines to come up, requires extremely high strength on the wrist and arm.

It is not suitable for Su Ran to come here unless necessary.

Besides, they couldn't do such a thing if they asked a little girl to take risks on their behalf.

Xie Shiqing and Yuchi Suihua are left.

Xie Shiqing didn't care. Putting Su Ran and Yuchi Suihua together made him feel relieved.

Because this idiot Yuchi Suihua can't read ancient characters, we have to rely on him to translate in this illusion.

Based on this alone, Xie Shiqing could conclude that Yuchi Suihua did not dare to do anything at the moment.

Yuchi Suihua was a little hesitant when faced with this choice.

On the one hand, the safety of the bottom of the well is unknown. If something like a human-faced monster is waiting for him, there is no way to escape at the bottom of the well.

On the other hand, crises and opportunities coexisted, and he could not let Xie Shiqing seize the opportunity.

Just like the key he picked up, it was because of this that he had the confidence to negotiate with Xie Shiqing.

After Yuchi Suihua hesitated for a moment, he decided to take a gamble.

"I'll go." Yuchi Suihua glanced at Xie Shiqing, "But you have to go with me."

Xie Shiqing had no objection, but Hua Rongqi asked: "You two, can Su Ran and I hold you back?"

It's okay for him and Su Ran to work together to pull one person, but now it's two people, Yuchi Suihua and Xie Shiqing!

And although these two people don't look strong, they are both tall!

"Can't you braid the rope longer?" Yuchi Suihua said in a disgusted tone, "The trees nearby are not far away. Can't you braid the rope longer and wrap it around the tree trunk a few times?"

The four trees around the well are all very close together, so it would be a good idea to make the rope longer.

Hua Rongqi heard it make sense at first, but after listening carefully, he couldn't help but retort: ​​"Why did I make it up? Don't you have any hands yourself?"

Yuchi Suihua didn't know what Hua Rongqi had gone through. Now in his eyes, Hua Rongqi was a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, so naturally he didn't have a good face.

He sneered: "Then you go down and I'll make it up."

Who knew that Hua Rongqi wouldn't accept this trick at all: "Okay, then I'll go down with Su Ran and you and Xie Shiqing will make it up."

What Huarong Qi is afraid of is not simply going into the bottom of a well.

At first, he thought that only one person went to inquire, so he refused so directly.

What about Yuchi Suihua? He is not just like himself, he also wants to drag someone down.

Stupid, stupid.

Hua Rongqi also had no good feelings toward Yuchi Suihua.

Hua Rongqi's rebuttal seemed to Yuchi Suihua to be unreasonable.

——Because Su Ran has long been excluded from their plan.

Hua Rongqi is still teasing Su Ran now, just because he thinks his appearance is not good and he is making excuses.
