Chapter 72

a said he would temporarily keep it for a year. If the person hadn't returned by then, he would hand it over to Sun Lao Da.I was a bit curious about who bought our stuff, so I asked the boss later. Th...Just then, my stomach started rumbling loudly.

Hong Jie said weakly, "When we fell, we dropped a backpack, and the little bit of biscuits and dried food we had left was also consumed." She looked at the endless slope and frowned. "I don't know how long it will take to climb up. No, I have to eat something, even fruit would do. Yun Feng, don't move, just sit here and wait. I'll go around and see if I can find anything to eat.

">

After Hong Jie left temporarily, I was the only one left sitting on the lawn.

At first, it was okay, and I didn't worry too much. But slowly, the fog got thicker and thicker.

Just now, I could still see the path I had walked. Now, looking down, I can hardly see anything, it's all white and blurry.

Time is passing by minute by minute, and I am getting scared.

Now a big fog has suddenly come up, Red Sister definitely can't see me. I'm afraid that if she steps on air, something might happen.

Every two or three minutes, I would shout loudly in place: "Hongjie! Hongjie! I'm here! I'm here!"

I hope she can hear me, and follow the sound of my voice to find me.

I miscalculated.

I waited there for a long time, my throat was hoarse from shouting, but I didn't see Hong Jie reply to me, nor did I see her.

I dare not leave easily, for I know that in this situation, the best course of action when two people part ways is for one to stay put. If both parties were to run about haphazardly, they would likely drift further and further apart.

As twilight approached, the thick fog persisted. I shifted from sitting to lying down, my stomach growling with hunger.

I kept thinking, sticking it out until dawn when the fog cleared. By then, Sister Hong would definitely be able to find me.

Cold and hungry, I lay down on the grass and fell asleep as I was thinking.

The night was pitch black, it was probably past midnight.

In a daze, I seemed to hear Hongjie calling my name.

"Yúnfēng, Yúnfēng, come here, I'm here.

">

With a jolt, I sprang to my feet.

This sudden movement knocked into my injured arm, and I gasped in pain.

Everything around was dark and gloomy. I sat on the ground, listening intently with my ears pricked up.

"Yunfeng, Yunfeng, come here, I'm here."

A familiar voice came from behind me, it was Hongjie, her voice.

Following the sound, I carefully made my way in the dark towards where it was coming from.

I walked and shouted, "Hongjie! Hongjie! Where are you I can't see you!"

A voice echoed from the darkness.

"Yúnfēng, Yúnfēng, come here, I'm here."

"

"

I stopped in my tracks, frowning, sensing something was amiss.

Hong Jie shouted three times, the key is that every time she called out, the content was the same, and her tone and speed were the same!

Swallowing nervously, I refused to give up and tried shouting again, "Red Sister, where are you"

Indeed....

"Yúnfēng, Yúnfēng, come here, I'm here."

“

Four times! Sister Hong's response was always the same.

My face turned pale, and I quietly stepped back.

As I reached out and touched, I felt a small hard object in my pocket. It was the Ga-u amulet Yao Yumen had given me before, saying it could ward off evil spirits.

Because it was in the way, I took off this necklace and put it in my pocket.

I clutched the red string amulet tightly in my hand, and my mind began to race with anxious thoughts.

The fog is too thick, the ground is wet, did Sister Hong step on air and die

Is this her ghost come to find me

Hong Jie's ghost, is she afraid of me being alone here
