It’s a stone statue!
However, the surveillance that Ji Chaoyang just ntioned...
Could it really be the mark?
That’s right! Xiaohong! Where is Xiaohong?
He imdiately turned around to search.
After releasing Xiaohong, he never put him back, just to see if he could act together with other stone statues.
After the first circle of ordinary beast statues was completely dealt with, he showed no signs of activity.
"...Where is Xiaohong?" Xu Xin’s eyes gradually widened, searching all around.
The little boy statue that had been placed behind them was gone!
Where did it go?!
"Huh?" Lou Fei’Er imdiately ran to the place where Xiaohong had been sitting, and looked around in surprise, "He was just here, right? When I fired the explosive bolt with the crossbow, I kept watching him!"
"The little boy statue ca to life and then disappeared?" Ji Chaoyang froze slightly, looking towards the giant pit, his brows furrowing slightly.
Xu Xin glanced around.
Surrounding the giant pit were about twenty ters of snowless area, caused by the pit’s inability to accumulate snow.
The giant pit couldn’t accumulate snow, and the snow within twenty ters around it had all lted away.
Three ters of snow wrapped around the area twenty ters outside the pit, forming an even larger snow pit.
And the barren thicket within this twenty-ter range naturally erged from the thick snow cover.
"Yip!" Keke suddenly jumped out of Li Wenxi’s arms and ran into the thicket.
"Keke!" Li Wenxi tried to grab it but failed.
Xu Xin, without hesitation, followed.
Keke must have discovered sothing.
Following Keke, he quickly found Xiaohong, hugging his knees and trembling behind the trunk of a barren poplar tree.
He indeed ca to life!
The little boy statue buried his head between his knees, and hearing soone approach, he didn’t dare to look up. He hugged his head and shrunken into the ground, shouting, "Don’t co over! Don’t hit ! I was wrong, help... help!"
"Xiaohong, it’s . Look up." Xu Xin didn’t approach imdiately, fearing to scare him, but spoke softly.
"Sigh..." Xu Xin’s voice seed familiar to him, and he slowly raised his head to look at Xu Xin.
After seeing Xu Xin’s face, his terrified expression vanished imdiately, and his eyes and mouth gradually opened wide, tentatively asking, "You... are you the uncle who brought and my parents out from underground? Uncle Xu Xin?"
"It’s , Xiaohong, so don’t be afraid." Seeing that Xiaohong recognized him, Xu Xin walked to his side and squatted down.
"Uncle... I... Waaa!" He burst into tears.
Although statues can’t shed tears, his voice and expression conveyed his grievance and relief to Xu Xin and the four others who had gathered behind him.
Lou Fei’Er, who had t him once, hurriedly joined in to comfort him.
Minutes later, Xiaohong’s ntal state gradually returned to normal.
Then, Xu Xin asked, "Xiaohong, can you tell about your experiences after coming to the surface? Why were you inside the treasure chest monster’s belly?"
Xiaohong had already stood up, his stone hands firmly grasping Xu Xin’s arm, treating Xu Xin as his emotional support.
He hesitantly glanced at the few others around him, "I... I don’t know anything either. Dad and Mom didn’t tell anything..."
"Just tell us what you know. I’ll help you find your parents." Xu Xin spoke softly.
Xiaohong nodded, "Okay, I trust Uncle. Well... after we left your tree house..."
Suddenly, his voice cut off.
"Can’t move again?" Having experienced such a situation before, Lou Fei’Er imdiately widened her eyes.
Xu Xin slightly furrowed his brow.
No, it’s not that he can’t move again.
Xiaohong was still active.
He just stopped talking to anyone, instead slowly turning his head towards the stone pit.
In the stone pit, the pterosaur’s head had completely turned, unabashedly looking at Xu Xin and the group.
Then, Xiaohong’s eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of red, and he started moving.
Without saying a word, he began to walk slowly towards the giant pit, then quickly picked up pace and started running!
"Xiaohong!" Xu Xin tried to grab Xiaohong’s shoulder to stop him.
But for so reason, the little boy statue’s strength was enormous, and Xu Xin couldn’t stop his movent, instead being pulled a few steps forward.
"Let try!"
Ji Chaoyang, who had a strength boost today, far stronger than Xu Xin, imdiately grabbed Xiaohong’s arm but couldn’t stop Xiaohong’s movent either, only slightly slowing his steps before being pulled away.
Xiaohong ran towards the giant pit, very fast.
"He’s so fast!" Qi Xuefei’s brows furrowed slightly.
While Xu Xin and the others were comforting Xiaohong, Ji Chaoyang had briefly explained the origin of this little boy statue to her.
Was he... being controlled? Controlled to walk towards it?
Xu Xin wanted to retrieve him into the bracelet, but Xiaohong’s speed was too fast, he couldn’t catch up.
Mimi imdiately sped ahead, pushing the little boy statue, trying to stop its movent, but only slowing him down slightly.
Unable to harm Xiaohong, Mimi dared not extend her sharp claws.
