When a person can choose to betray without hesitation for the first time, then he will be even more hesitant the next time the second or third time.

——Chu Mie

"rustle--"

In the silent night, the chirping of cicadas and the rustling of leaves were intertwined, and were soon overwhelmed by the sound of breaking branches.

Ah Wu walked in the front with a flashlight.

Shen Huaiyun and his party followed behind her.

According to Ah Wu, this path leads to the big rock where people can sit.

Shen Huaiyun stared at Ah Wu's slender back, leaned down and asked Chu Mie softly, "Is there any difference between this road and the one in your memory?"

Chu Mie is still a child now, and he stumbles even more when walking on the mountain road.When Shen Huaiyun asked him this, he was climbing on the slope with hands and feet, and subconsciously raised his head when he heard his words:

"what?"

Then as soon as the soil under his feet loosened, his body suddenly lost its center of gravity.

"careful!"

Chu Mie felt his wrist being pulled, and there was a hand behind his back against his back.The hand holding him was strong and hot, while the hand pressing against his back was soft and slightly cold—these were obviously hands from two different people.

Chu Mie stabilized his center of gravity and took a look.

The person holding him was Shen Huaiyun, and the one holding his back was Xi Qing.

Seeing Chu Mi looking back at her in surprise, Xi Qing smiled lightly on her expressionless face, and nodded slightly at him.

Chu Mie was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Thank you."

"It's okay, just be careful."

Chu Mie smiled gratefully at her, and before he could say anything, he felt his body lighten—ever since he entered this dungeon and became a child, he would always experience this feeling...

Sure enough, the body fell into a hot embrace.

Chu Mie let Shen Huaiyun hold her with ease, silently adjusted a comfortable posture, and then heard Shen Huaiyun ask slightly sadly:

"Why don't you thank me?"

Shen Huaiyun added another sentence: "If I don't hug you up, will you stop looking at me?"

Chu Mie: "Then...thank you?"

Shen Huaiyun immediately smiled, and replied loudly: "You're welcome, my treasure~"

Chu Mie: "..."

I don't want to deal with this silly criticism.

Shen Huaiyun hugged Chu Mie's soft and small body, couldn't help but rubbed his head again, and after receiving a knife in his eyes, she withdrew her claws contentedly.

After passing the big slope, Chu Mie said, "Shen Huaiyun, let me down, you will get tired if you keep holding me."

Shen Huaiyun immediately said: "How could that be! I'm not hugging you, I'm hugging my whole world~"

Chu Mie: "...you are so oily."

Dou Tongtong in the back was in a much better mood because of Teacher Gao's sobriety. Hearing Shen Huaiyun's flirtatious remarks, he couldn't help complaining: "You are such an idiot, how could you say such earthy love words?"

Ye Zhi carried Teacher Gao who was temporarily unable to walk on his back, and also interjected: "Shen Huaiyun, Xu Ming is a minor, and you will get the maximum death penalty in three years if you do this."

Shen Huaiyun: "..."

Shen Huaiyun: Autistic JPG

Chu Mie looked at Shen Huaiyun's side face: "By the way, you really won't let me down?"

Shen Huaiyun still held Chu Mie firmly, while paying attention to the road under his feet, he replied: "You are not heavy."

"But I got mud on my hands..."

"If the clothes are dirty, they will be dirty!" Shen Huaiyun gave him a funny look at this moment, with a strange light in his eyes, and licked his dry lips: "Why, you want to dirty me..."

Chu Mie: "..."

I swear I didn't get it!

Who knew that Shen Huaiyun smiled and added: "—— clothes?"

Chu Mie: "..."

Chu Mie showed a businesslike expression: "I haven't answered your question just now. The route Ah Wu took is not much different from Xu Ming's memory."

Shen Huaiyun smiled, "Then I won't answer that question just now?"

Chu Mie said that he didn't want to talk to you, and gave you a blank stare.

Ah Wu was walking forward slowly with a flashlight in hand, but suddenly her steps stopped and she froze in place.

Shen Huaiyun also stopped and asked, "What's the matter, Ah Wu?"

Ah Wu's hand holding the flashlight trembled a little, she turned her head pale and said, "I...I seem to see a figure in front of me."

"Shadow?"

Shen Huaiyun looked carefully in the direction she said, and sure enough, he saw a person lying there not far away.

"Can I take a detour?"

Shen Huaiyun thought for a while, although if it were real, he would definitely go to check who it was, but it was in the dungeon after all, and the difficulty of the dungeon has increased now, so he didn't want to make extra troubles.

"This... can't be detoured..."

Ah Wu clenched the flashlight in embarrassment: "Few people come here, so it is easy to get lost if there is no sign. I rarely have the opportunity to come here, so I only know this marked road."

Under Shen Huaiyun's scrutinizing eyes, Ah Wu's voice became lower and lower, showing an expression that seemed to be about to cry: "If I take a detour, I will get lost too! If you leave, I will be in the wilderness when I come back." If you lose your way, isn’t that a dead end?”

It seemed that we had to go.

Ye Zhi suggested: "Then go and see what is in front of you!"

Ah Wu showed a frightened expression: "Can I not walk in the front? I'm really scared..."

Shen Huaiyun looked at her slightly coldly.

A Wu's eyes were full of panic and embarrassment, biting her pale lips, she said in a tearful voice, "Then can someone walk beside me? Otherwise, I really dare not pass!"

Dou Tongtong: "I'll come!"

Dou Tongtong felt that Shen Huaiyun was holding Chu Mie, and Ye Zhi was carrying Teacher Gao, and it was inconvenient for them to check, and Xi Qing had a relatively indifferent personality, and she didn't seem to want to see Ah Wu, so she just said it herself.

Ah Wu nodded timidly, and said "Thank you" in a low voice gratefully.

Dou Tongtong walked side by side with Ah Wu in front of the figure.Only about two meters away from the figure, Dou Tongtong and Ah Wu stopped in their tracks.

"pat-"

The flashlight in Ah Wu's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

Seeing her reaction, Shen Huaiyun frowned.

"I... how could this happen!"

Ah Wu covered her mouth and took a few steps back, while shaking her head desperately, she cried and said, "How is this possible... how could he die?!"

who died?

Dou Tongtong also stood there with an ugly expression. She raised her lips as if to laugh, but her expression was extraordinarily angry and unwilling.

"Xiao Dou, what's wrong?"

Seeing her strange reaction, Teacher Gao asked.

"Teacher..." Dou Tongtong showed a smile on his face, turned his head and said, "The person who hurt you is dead."

"Who?" Teacher Gao seemed to suspect that he had heard it wrong, and repeated in disbelief: "The person who hurt me is dead?"

"Yes." Dou Tongtong raised a bright smile, in stark contrast to Ah Wu who was beside him with tears all over his face: "It's just a pity that he died before I could attack him!"

Ah She died.

All the players present fell into silence, digesting the unexpected news, and the rest of the players, Ah Wu, kept crying on the spot.

Shen Huaiyun: "How did Ah She die?"

"I don't know." Dou Tongtong shook his head, "It's still a bit far away, I can take a closer look."

With that said, Dou Tongtong took a few steps forward holding the flashlight.

After seeing the obvious tear marks on A She's neck again, he said with a little doubt, "There are tear marks on his neck, did he yell loudly?"

Did it trigger the death condition?

Chu Mi pondered for a moment. Could it be that even an NPC like Ah She with a certain plot can die because of triggering the death condition after the difficulty of the dungeon has been upgraded?

Dou Tongtong thought for a while, and then said: "I'll see if there are any unnecessary wounds on her body."

As she spoke, she held up the flashlight and walked towards A She slowly.

Chu Mie felt the arms holding him tighten suddenly, subconsciously frowned and looked at Shen Huaiyun, but found that Shen Huaiyun was frowning tightly, staring at the grass and trees near A She with a solemn expression, as if trying to discern something.

"How do you—"

Just as Chu Mie wanted to ask Shen Huaiyun, he heard Shen Huaiyun say: "Dou Tongtong, stay away from A She's body!"

"what?"

Dou Tongtong didn't react, and looked back at him suspiciously, and his body took a step forward out of habit—but it was precisely because of this step that an accident happened in the next second.

"boom--"

The ground under Dou Tongtong's feet collapsed, and dust and grass clippings were immediately raised.She fell into the trap in an instant.

"Xiao Dou!"

Teacher Gao struggled anxiously, as if she wanted to get off Ye Zhi's back to check on her situation.

Ye Zhi didn't want the old man to fall, but Mr. Gao struggled too much, so he had to struggle painfully to maintain his center of gravity.

"Mr. Gao, please be safe and don't be impatient."

Xi Qing noticed the movement on Ye Zhi and Teacher Gao's side, so she spoke to comfort her.

After Dou Tongtong fell into the trap, Shen Huaiyun immediately put down Chu Mie and rushed to the trap that Dou Tongtong fell into.When he was about to reach the trap, Shen Huaiyun suddenly stopped, and deliberately put out a foot to step on the ground next to the trap.

"boom--"

Another trap.

These two traps are very close together, so even if one trap is found, there is a high chance that the other trap will be taken.

Because after a trap is discovered, people's vigilance will decrease in a short period of time, and they instinctively mistakenly think that there is only one trap in this place.

Shen Huaiyun bypassed the trap with an ugly face, and said to Dou Tongtong at the bottom of the pit: "Are you okay?"

"I...I'm fine!" Dou Tongtong replied sullenly: "It's just that the body of the dead is on the body, which makes people panic!"

"Okay, then I'll try to get you up!"

…………

Chu Mie knew that Shen Huaiyun put him down just now for his safety, so he obediently stood there and waited for him.

When Shen Huaiyun was thinking of a way to pull Dou Tongtong up, he suddenly heard a barking dog, and couldn't help but frown, subconsciously looking in the direction of the barking dog.

Seeing that he seemed a little uneasy, Xi Qing asked, "What's wrong?"

Chu Mie felt inexplicably panicked: "There is a dog barking—"

"What's wrong with the dog barking?"

Ye Zhi, who was standing aside with Teacher Gao on his back, suddenly asked weakly: "Although saving Dou Tongtong is very important now, does anyone know where Ah Wu has gone?"

Chu Mie looked at Ye Zhi in a daze, recalling what the mayor said to Xu Ming in his mind——

[Just now, a little boy inside bit him, almost making him run away!Fortunately, a dog smelled it and brought him back...]

not good!Ah Wu and the townspeople are on the same team!

Chu Mie's expression changed, and he urged anxiously, "Shen Huaiyun, hurry up! The townspeople are here!"

"call out--"

"careful!"

As soon as the words were finished, Xi Qing suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed Chu Mie away forcefully, causing him to fall to the ground and roll around several times.

Where he stood just now, a wooden arrow pierced impressively.

"That's too late."

Rare anger and depression appeared on Xi Qing's originally calm face. She stared deeply not far away, watching the light passing by in the darkness, and the barking of a dog that was almost close at hand:

"We're surrounded."

The author says:

Ah Wu: Sorry, I backstab again.
