Gouwa quickly came out of the passage, so shocked that he didn't even see the passage on the wall behind him. Such a big hole was right there.

After he stepped out, everyone gathered around with solemn expressions.

What does it mean to be gone

"Didn't you see the bodies rotting over there"

A-sheng elbowed the youth who had asked the question. He knew the youth's younger brother was one of the children imprisoned in the county jail, but did he think it reasonable to say that out loud

"In just three days, the temperature at the bottom of the pit could be so low that it would rot"

"Could it have been eaten by a big bird"

Asheng glared at him coldly, "Do you think we've been guarding here for the past few days for nothing"

As the most well-informed village head, even he couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Asheng has been guarding here for the past few days. If those people could survive and crawl out of the pit, he would definitely find them."

Besides, that's impossible. Do you think those scorpions in the sand eat grass

"How did this person vanish Could the quicksand have taken them somewhere else"

The village head pondered for a moment, “That's possible.”

"Send some people out to look around, see if you can find their bodies."

"What if we can't find it"

"Village Head, we don't have time! That corrupt official sent someone to tell us that we only have one day for our village. If we waste all our time looking for bodies, what about the children"

Lu, the village head, paused for a moment, then after a while decided.

"The villagers split into two groups. I, along with Silver and a portion of the people, will head to the county office first and try to persuade the magistrate for a few more days of leniency."

The remaining people searched frantically for the bodies of those missing, believing that even if the quicksand swept them away, it couldn't have carried them far.

Asheng and everyone else nodded, he stepped forward.

"Village chief, let me go to the county office with you."

Village Head Lu patted his arm and shook his head.

"You don't have to go, someone has to be in charge here in the village. You are the most level-headed of us all, I feel better knowing you'll stay."

After a moment of hesitation, Asheng nodded.

When searching for bodies, everyone be careful and wary of scorpions.

Although they dislike coming to the ground, you should be prepared just in case.

Asheng nodded. "Village Chief, don't worry, I'll take good care of everyone."

Village head Lü left with his people, returning to get money and go to the county office.

It took a whole day just to walk from the village to the county office. In fact, the county office didn't even leave them any room to spare.

Fang Jinxiu was still quite enjoying picking up scorpions. By the time he reached the end of the corridor, there were no more sand scorpions appearing on the walls.

These scorpions, as if aware that they couldn't handle the formidable woman outside, had lost countless siblings who didn't return alive. Even venom has a survival instinct, knowing who to avoid when it's outmatched, so they wisely stay hidden.

Fang Jinshi said somewhat disappointedly, she weighed the sack in her hand, hmm, about five catties more.

I just don't know how much these sand scorpions are worth here. I'll have to find someone to ask when I get out.

"We're here."

Zhao Xingzhou's toxins in his body had been mostly cleared, and he and Ah Sheng crawled out of the hole one after the other.

"Outside, it was actually a forest"

"Have we been walking for so long Am I hallucinating Could there be such a lush forest on the edge of the desert"

Fāng Jǐnxù also felt strange.

However, geography is a fickle thing. Nature harbors too many marvels that defy logic and understanding.

Even in the desert, there are oases, and it's not surprising to find forests at the edge of the desert.

"No matter what, we have to find a way out. Let's take a look around first."

For safety's sake, the three of them did not go their separate ways. This forest seemed quite large, and who knew what kind of ferocious beasts might live inside.

Sometimes Fong Kam-siu doesn't know if her good fortune might have side effects.

She had just been guessing in her mind if there would be any ferocious beasts here, when the real thing appeared before them.

A desert wolf blocked their path, its menacing eyes staring at them hungrily.

If there were only one wolf, Jinxiu wouldn't be so worried. Zhao Xingzhou's poison was almost gone; he could easily handle a single beast.

But wolves are pack animals, and if there's one here, there's likely a whole group around.

Zhao Xingzhou stood in front of Fang Jinshu.

"Later, you guys find a tree to climb up, I'll deal with it."

Fang Jinxiu and Ah Sheng both nodded, the two quickly found a tree to climb up. At this time, don't say anything like "I can't climb trees."

Even if you can't, you have to climb!

A lone wolf was indeed no match for Zhao Xingzhou, but he was also unable to kill the wolf with a single strike.

The next second, Fang Jinshu saw the scene she least wanted to see. The wolf probably knew that it couldn't defeat Zhao Xingzhou in a one-on-one fight. It raised its head and opened its mouth, letting out a wolf howl to call for backup.

Fang Jinxiu's heart began to curse, calling for backup because she couldn't win. What a despicable move!

"Zhao Xingzhou, run!"

"When the wolf pack arrives, we won't be able to escape."

When Fang Jinshu shouted this sentence, she had already run down the tree and started running in a specific direction. Ah Sheng followed closely behind.

Though petite and a woman, she could run through the jungle just as fast as Ah Sheng, this big man, and even more agile.

Zhao Xingzhou naturally didn't need to say anything. Hearing Fang Jinshi's words, he dropped the wolf at his feet and followed closely behind the two of them. The wolf also followed up, Fang Jinshi shot it with her sleeve crossbow. While escaping in the jungle, she had to shoot moving targets, which was incredibly difficult.

It was expected that none of the arrows would hit. Luckily, she had many arrows in her spatial storage. Aren't you good at shaking people up

It all depends on whether you can hold out until your wolf brothers arrive!

Fang Jinshu didn't hesitate, she suddenly stopped walking. Zhao Xingzhou followed up just in time and she shouted.

"Carry me!"

When it comes to life or death, there's no need to talk about men and women guarding each other. It would be great if she could live to return and see Zong Yu again.

Fang Jinxiu, straddling Zhao Xingzhou's back, began reloading the crossbow. Zhao Xingzhou instantly understood her meaning and tightened his grip on Fang Jinxiu's legs that were braced against his body. He held her firmly in place while continuing to flee for their lives.

That wolf isn't going to kindly stop and wait for them to get their gear ready.

Fang Jinshi, fully equipped with her sleeve arrows, was brimming with confidence. Although the forest still presented many obstacles that obstructed her vision, and the desert wolf on the other end was incredibly agile, she felt ready for the challenge.

The third arrow finally hit the wolf's leg, and the desert wolf howled in pain, having to stop.

Two people on the run heard the cry and instinctively stopped. Mainly, they were running a bit too hard and needed to catch their breath.

Before Fang Jinshu could feel happy for more than a few seconds, she heard more wolves responding with howls from all around. Her face changed instantly, and she hurriedly jumped off Zhao Xingzhou's back.

"Hurry, keep running! Don't want to die Run faster! What are you waiting for The wolf pack is coming!"

If she had known things would turn out this way, she might as well have stayed in the sandbox.

When those little brats from Lühé Village show up, she could totally grab one to use as leverage to make them pull her up with a rope.

What a blunder! To lose your head over such a treasure as the sand scorpion.uch a young age, you have no respect for elders and act so arrogantly. You'll get what's coming to you sooner or later."Fang Jinshi returned him a brilliant smile, “Really If there’s really cause and...
