Chapter 329: Chapter 58_5
Then, Li Zhiyuan heard some noise coming from the village.
He turned around and looked towards the direction of the village, seeing quite a few figures moving around, many people gathered at the two houses by the village entrance.
Someone was shouting:
"Who smashed my door, who exactly smashed my door!"
"My door was smashed too, who did it!"
Suddenly, a cold breeze blew by, causing Li Zhiyuan to shiver, and the people in the village suddenly fell silent.
They were still there, they hadn’t disappeared, but in the next moment, the group of figures, like a silent film, collectively turned and began walking towards this road leading out of the village.
A pang of pain struck him, and it was time, Run Sheng was waking him up.
Li Zhiyuan opened his eyes and without hesitation said, "Let’s go!"
The car was gone, and so was their luggage, everyone simply followed the boy and ran.
They ran out of the small road and onto the main road, Li Zhiyuan chose a direction to go back the way they came and led everyone up.
The three realized something had changed, no one asked why, but all tightly followed, holding onto their belongings.
Fortunately, there were no vehicles seen along the way, otherwise they would definitely be mistaken by drivers as road bandits.
"Let’s run ahead a bit more, don’t stop!"
These words were addressed to Tan Wenbin and Xue Liangliang, Li Zhiyuan has stamina from his stance training, Run Sheng naturally had excellent physical condition, while Tan Wenbin and Xue Liangliang, were more like typical weak college students.
They were okay for a burst of speed, but if it came to long-distance running, they would quickly become breathless.
Li Zhiyuan asked them to keep going because, from past experience, these bizarre effects often had a range, just like what happened at Zheng Haiyang’s home, once out of the dam, there would be no issue.
This time, should be only persist...
Li Zhiyuan stopped walking, and Run Sheng stopped as well.
Xue Liangliang and Tan Wenbin bent over gasping for air.
"Brother Xiao Yuan, have we made it out?"
"Xiao Yuan, are we safe now?"
Before either of them could get a timely answer, they both lifted their heads to look forward, and then they saw the same small road they had come out from before.
Despite running in the direction back home for so long, they ended up running back to where they started.
Li Zhiyuan turned around: "Let’s try running in this direction."
While saying this, the boy didn’t sound very confident because he seemingly already anticipated the result.
The others felt the same; everyone ran a bit slower this time, lacking that intense yearning to quickly escape from danger.
Eventually, they found themselves back at the same pathway entrance from another direction.
"Downhill!"
Since the path was impassable, they decided to go downhill.
It was very dangerous to go downhill, quite steep, everyone was holding onto trees, slowly moving downwards step by step.
Li Zhiyuan’s gaze was fixed on the river below, but the good visibility from the road above was because you were looking from a high point, once you actually entered the woods, the view would definitely be obstructed.
After clearing the dead leaves in front of him, Li Zhiyuan found that they were once again back on the same small road.
Ahead was the clearing where they had parked the previous night, a bit further up was the small village.
Tan Wenbin slumped to the ground.
Xue Liangliang also stumbled a few more steps then ultimately knelt down, swallowing hard he asked: "Xiao Yuan, are we caught in a ghost hitting the wall?"
"Something like that, it’s probably some type of miasma, everyone rest a bit."
The four of them sat down on the ground.
Soon after, the sky began to darken as if it was going to rain.
There was no choice, they couldn’t dare go to the village, so they found a large tree to shelter under, to prevent sudden rain from drenching everyone completely.
At this moment, Tan Wenbin actually managed to take out a workbook and a pen from his pants pocket.
He sat down with his back against the tree, spread the book on his legs, and really began to work on it.
This scene made everyone chuckle, including himself.
Actually, he was faking doing his assignments, his real intention was to lighten the somber atmosphere.
Xue Liangliang said helplessly: "I feel like I’ve passed my bad luck onto you guys, Xiao Yuan, everytime I’m with you, I get roped into something."
"Brother Liangliang, don’t say that, I’m going to blush."
Based on past frequency, it’s really hard to say who’s affecting whom.
Li Zhiyuan felt that maybe it was his own fault; his native village nearby had experienced a concentrated outbreak of corpses and had been depressed since; now that he traveled far from home, he began attracting incidents again.
Tan Wenbin yawned and said: "It seems the elderly are right about checking the almanac before going out, I should’ve burned incense and bathed, and calculated an auspicious date before leaving."
Run Sheng lit an incense stick and placed it in the dirt in front of him.
Tan Wenbin couldn’t help but roll his eyes: "What’s the use of burning incense now?"
The clouds became heavier, and the moisture in the air increased, rain could fall at any moment.
As Li Zhiyuan, who was originally engrossed in thinking of a way to escape, lifted his head, he was instantly stunned.
Because Xue Liangliang’s face exhibited a kind of wooden texture, although Li Zhiyuan usually didn’t read faces for people around him, this kind of facial expression was almost like the direct hints used by swindlers in Jianghu: "I see darkness on your forehead!"
It was bad luck clinging to him, luck plummeting to the bottom, disaster prone, usually seen in people on their deathbeds because for them, any minor accident or shock could extinguish their life.
Li Zhiyuan quickly looked at Run Sheng and Tan Wenbin, finding that they too appeared the same.
Doesn’t that mean he was also?
The four of them had been together the whole time, sharing the same fate, if it’s bad luck, it would definitely affect all of them.
He reached out and picked up the knife Xue Liangliang had placed in front of him, using the blade as a mirror to look at himself.
Suddenly, a strong sense of nausea washed over him.
Although he was not calculating the fate chart for himself, although it was clear and straightforward, looking at his own facial expression was also a taboo.
Most importantly, the boy had already turned what he had learned into an instinct, even if just taking a cursory look, his mind was already fully operational, just like a person seeing a simple math problem, instinctively coming up with the answer.
Dropping the knife, Li Zhiyuan closed his eyes, soothing his dizziness and nausea.
After recovering, Li Zhiyuan opened his eyes, his eyes filled with deep confusion and doubt.
Because he found his face was normal, completely different from his three companions resembling "burned-out lamps."
"Brothers, I have a very serious question to ask all of you."
The three all looked up at the boy, waiting for the question.
"While on the way, did you secretly do something behind my back?"
