Gu Jinhe didn't care what these people were thinking. She had already given them the reminder. Since they didn't listen, they couldn't blame anyone if they encountered danger.

About half an hour later, the sky darkened and flashes of light appeared in the woods.

Although there is no signal on the mobile phone, you can turn on the flashlight to light the way, so that you won’t bump into trees or trip over branches under your feet.

Gu Jinhe's expression became more and more ugly. More and more people followed him. Almost all the people on the racecourse had gathered there, with only a few people missing.

And Xu Cheng is one of them.

It just happened to be such a coincidence that Xu Cheng clearly came here to ride horses with a few friends, but his friends were all there, only he was nowhere to be seen.

Gu Jinhe and his men had been searching in the woods for almost an hour, but they didn't even see the shadow of Xu Cheng.

The darkness will invisibly amplify hearing. Gu Jinhe listened to the dense footsteps behind him and frowned slightly. At this moment, Gu Jinhe heard an unusual voice.

That voice seemed to be...

Gu Jinhe's eyes became fierce, and he stretched out his hand to pull Shu Mo beside him to lie on the ground, while shouting to the back: "There is danger! Everyone lie down!"

This shout made everyone turn pale with fear. In fear, they subconsciously threw themselves to the ground quickly as Gu Jinhe said. Some people did not react and just stood there in a daze without any response.

At this moment, time seems to pass very slowly, but there are only a few seconds for everyone to react.

Soon, a black sphere drew a sharp arc in the darkness and flew towards the crowd.

"Click!" A sound, neither loud nor low, was very obvious in the quiet night.

Someone with a quick reaction immediately came to his senses and shouted, "It's a grenade! Get out of the way!"

But it was too late. After the grenade fell on the ground and rolled a few times, sparks flew out with a crackling sound, followed by a deafening explosion!

"Boom——!"

In the darkness, huge flames flashed in the forest, and a thick black mushroom cloud rose in the sky above the forest.

Since everyone was shining their cell phone lights on the road, this gave people hiding in the dark an opportunity, and the grenade was aimed at everyone.

Fortunately, Gu Jinhe reminded everyone quickly and many people reacted in time. They hid their phones on their chests when they lay down, and the light was reduced a lot for a while.

But in the end, someone was hit by the grenade.

For a moment, the sound of screaming in pain hovered over the forest.

Gu Jinhe brushed off the sand and branches on her body that were stained by the grenade explosion. She raised her hand to help Shu Mo up and asked, "Are you okay?"

Shu Mo patted his ears, which were a little tinnitus, and shook his head slightly: "Miss, I'm fine."

Gu Jinhe glanced back and in the darkness, under the sparse lights of cell phones, he could vaguely see someone rolling on the ground and howling.

Gu Jinhe frowned and whispered a few words to Shu Mo. Shu Mo then came to the people behind and said, "It's not advisable to stay here for long. Everyone who can stand up should leave quickly. If you don't want to die, leave quickly. If you are seriously injured and can't walk, everyone should support each other and walk together. Don't leave anyone behind!"

Someone retorted: "How can you escape with this encumbrance?"

Shu Mo looked at the person who spoke and said coldly: "Then you can escape alone, you don't have to follow us!"

After these words were spoken, the man was speechless and dared not say anything else.

No one present was a fool. If they ran away alone at this moment, no one would know where they died.

Following behind Gu Jinhe, at least the people around her can fight and have guns, so they can save their lives.

Perhaps it was for this reason that he listened to Shu Mo's words, helped the person who was lying on the ground and unable to walk, and walked forward together.

Because they were carrying the wounded, everyone's walking speed slowed down significantly.

They were even more worried that the lights on their cell phones would give the enemy another opportunity to attack, so this time everyone turned off their cell phone lights and groped their way forward.

It’s okay for those following behind you, just follow the footsteps.

The person walking in the front needs to lead everyone and think clearly about which road is easy and possible to take in a short period of time.

Fortunately, one of Gu Jinhe's bodyguards has good night vision. The bodyguard walked in front to lead the way, and even in the dark, he could accurately avoid the trees in front.

At this time, no one was in the mood to shout Xu Cheng's name anymore.

Don't let the shouting prevent Xu Cheng from being found, which would attract the enemy and cause them to drop a grenade. That would be enough to cause trouble for everyone.

Gu Jinhe did not shout again. It was obvious that the enemy had lured people into the woods on purpose, and if that was the case, they would not let them leave safely so easily.

Gu Jinhe had a hunch that the other party was about to take action.

Just as Gu Jinhe had thought, gunshots were heard in the woods.

The gunshots scared the people behind half to death. They squatted on the ground subconsciously when they heard the gunshots, and stood up and walked away when the gunshots stopped.

In this way, everyone walked and stopped, but in fact they didn't walk very far.

Shu Mo frowned and said, "Miss, this won't work. The people behind us will delay our trip too much. How about letting them hide in a safe place and we go find Xu Cheng ourselves?"

Gu Jinhe frowned and said, "Where can we find a safe place? There is no safe place in this forest."

If we really leave these people behind, they might really become prey in the hands of the enemy.

These people are not bad people and have never hurt Gu Jinhe. She cannot just stand by and watch them die, nor can she choose not to save them when she can, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Shu Mo also knew that her words were a bit too cruel, but the most important thing in her heart was Gu Jinhe's safety.

No one knows whether the next gunshot will be heard nearby or whether someone around them will fall down.

Shu Mo could only prepare for the worst and must not let anything happen to Gu Jinhe at any cost.

Gu Jinhe frowned. This was not a solution. They were in the dark and the enemy was a hunter who had already entered the woods and was waiting for the prey to come in.

And these people are their prey.

Gu Jinhe turned around and looked at the people behind him, and said in a deep voice: "From now on, you all stay where you are and don't move or make any sound. No matter what happens, if you don't want to die, don't get up!"

Everyone looked around in the darkness, but visibility was actually very low and they could only see vague shadows around them.

But in order to save their lives, they listened to Gu Jinhe's words and everyone lay down on the ground.

Some people were afraid that Gu Jinhe would abandon them and not care about them, so they said, "Miss Gu, you won't just ignore us and run away, right?"

Shu Mo snorted coldly: "If the young lady didn't want to care about you, she would have ignored your life and death when the grenade exploded. How could she take you with her!"
