"South!" Besides Huanglong Village, the closest direction to the village is south. If those two really wanted to desert, they would definitely go south.
Because the south is closer to the town, they could quickly catch a ride to the county or towards the train station.
"Qian Cheng, I think they might be lost. They probably didn’t head south, but west instead."
"West?" Mu Qiancheng was taken aback. The west was a place akin to a prival forest. He thought for a mont, then looked at Jiang Xue and asked, "Xue’er, why do you think they’re lost?"
"Intuition." Jiang Xue didn’t want to tell Mu Qiancheng that the Little Fox told her.
After hearing Jiang Xue’s words, Mu Qiancheng pondered for a while and then made a decision. He changed his original direction and headed west.
Seeing Mu Qiancheng walking west, Jiang Xue’s eyes flickered, and a brilliant smile appeared on her face.
Feeling Jiang Xue’s good mood, Mu Qiancheng also smiled. Just now, he didn’t know why he chose to trust Jiang Xue.
The feeling was strange, as if soone was telling him that trusting Jiang Xue was never wrong.
The husband and wife headed west all the way, and the further they went, the denser and colder the forest beca. Jiang Xue looked at the eerie woods and talked to the fox, "Little Fox, are you sure you didn’t get the direction wrong? This place looks like no one has been here for decades. Would those two soldiers co here?"
"Woman, are you doubting ?" The Little Fox was displeased. Jiang Xue was doubting its words. It was, after all, a fox that had lived for thousands of years; how could it make a mistake?
"It’s not that I’m doubting you, but this spooky place gives a really bad feeling. Those two aren’t fools; why would they co here?"
"Woman, lost, do you understand what being lost ans? Since they’re lost, naturally, they could end up anywhere."
"Yes, yes, yes, they’re lost. But why, of all places, did they get lost here?" Jiang Xue asked, puzzled.
This place looks just like a prival forest. As long as one has their wits, they wouldn’t co this way.
"Woman, what do you know? They wouldn’t co this way on their own. But what if soone forced them, or sothing drove them here?"
"You’re saying soone forced them?"
"More or less. Alright, I won’t say more. Walk a bit further, and you’ll know why." The Little Fox didn’t want to say more and fell silent.
No matter how Jiang Xue tried to reach out with her mind, the Little Fox ignored her.
At this mont, Jiang Xue wished she could pick up the Little Fox and give it a good beating. However, with Mu Qiancheng beside her, she naturally didn’t dare.
Walking next to her, Mu Qiancheng suddenly heard Jiang Xue grinding her teeth and felt her low spirits. He couldn’t help but ask with concern, "Xue’er, what’s wrong?"
"I’m fine!" Jiang Xue shook her head, no longer trying to contact the Little Fox, and started talking with Mu Qiancheng instead.
The two talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at the place Little Fox had ntioned. Jiang Xue was sowhat stunned when she saw it.
Seeing the scene before her, she realized the Little Fox hadn’t lied to her. She also understood why those two warriors would choose such a place.
Not far ahead, about a dozen ters away, a large black bear was looking up at a big tree. On the tree, two n in green military uniforms were dangling from branches, on the verge of falling into the bear’s mouth.
