Chapter 316 To the Devil's Castle
"My friend, you are running very slowly.
Do you know how long I've been waiting? "
The little tailor leaned against the crooked neck tree, looking very calm.
Zhou Bai took out his mobile phone, checked the time, and saw that it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
"Are there no monsters chasing you?"
Zhou Bai put the phone back into his pocket again, walked to the side of the little tailor, and sized him up.
"Yes, how could it not be?
But it was bad luck for the monster to meet me.
It's a pity that you run too fast, otherwise, I can still protect you. "
Zhou Bai's eyes fell on his clothes that were scratched by branches, and such scratch marks could only appear when he was hiding in a tree.
Zhou Bai did not expose him, but leaned against the tree trunk like him, waiting for the other friends to arrive.
The second one to return to the agreed place was Hans.
With a gloomy face, he came to the crooked neck tree without saying a word, even the little tailor didn't seem to hear him when he greeted him.
"What's the matter? Are you scared?" The little tailor approached Hans.
However, when he was approaching the other party, something suddenly shook in front of his eyes, and then a cold knife touched his neck.
"If you don't want to die, just say a few words."
The little tailor twitched the corners of his mouth, smiled and raised his hands, gently removing the knife he had placed around his neck.
"Good, good, good...
If you don’t say it, don’t say it. "
Hans gave him a cold look, and then put down the knife.
However, when he retracted the knife again, Zhou Bai saw the blood stains on his sleeve.
The little tailor heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried to the other side of the crooked neck tree, trying to stay away from that lunatic Hans.
At this time, Adam also slowly walked towards this side from a distance.
I saw his hand holding his top hat, revealing the few hair on his head.
At this time, it was blown upright by the wind, looking a little more embarrassed than before.
"Thank God for finally letting me see you.
That **** monster almost killed me. "
As soon as Adam joined the team, he kept complaining.
However, the most talkative David was not there, and the most talkative little tailor had no idea of talking. Suddenly, no one talked to him.
Adam saw that no one was speaking, so he could only shut his mouth bored, and stood silently under the tree like everyone else.
They waited like this for about 20 minutes, and finally the petite Kelly came.
He came from another direction, his hair and face were covered with sand, and his level of distress was not much better than that of Adam.
Zhou Bai picked up his phone again, checked the time, then frowned, and looked at the other people present.
It's almost seven-thirty now, and David hasn't been seen yet.
Zhou Bai's team, including himself, has a total of six people.
There were only five robbers who were not eligible to stay last night.
Assuming that everyone has a monster chasing after them, what is the extra one?
The sixth bandit?
Or, former adventurers?
While Zhou Bai was thinking, he saw the tall David, with an excited expression on his face, galloping towards where they were.
"Great, I finally see you guys again.
I'm so miserable, I finally found you. "
Adam approached him and asked with a smile, "How miserable is it?"
David cried and said, "After you run away, I'm the only one in the dark forest. I'm so scared."
Everyone was a little stunned when they heard his answer.
"Only you, where are the monsters?"
David shook his head innocently: "There is no monster chasing me."
"Then why are you here so late?"
"I'm lost."
Facing David's natural answer, everyone was speechless for a while.
Zhou Bai, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief.
There is no sixth robber who turned into a monster, and there are no other adventurers who have died for the time being.
Then the situation is at least better than he imagined.
It's just that the most important thing now is to solve the place to rest tonight.
Those monsters couldn't find them just now, and they may gather near the abandoned house again.
And the area of the abandoned house is too small, and there are no doors and windows, resting there tonight, terror cannot guarantee safety.
In this case, the nearest place to here is only the devil's castle.
Precautions for entering the Black Forest, Article 2.
【The devil's castle after ten o'clock in the evening is more terrifying than the wild. 】
Zhou Bai felt that terror and danger were not necessarily equated.
Moreover, this rule only says that the devil's castle is a little scary, but it doesn't say that you can't enter it.
Rather than after ten o'clock, staying in the wild will violate the rules and become a monster.
Or entering an abandoned house without shelter, you will face danger at any time.
Why don't you go to the Devil's Castle to have a look, maybe there will be some new discoveries.
Thinking of this, Zhou Bai stood up straight, clapped his hands towards the others, and motioned for them to gather around.
He took out the map, pointed to their current location, and then said to them.
"It's half past seven, we have to find a place to rest tonight before ten o'clock.
The only places closest to here are the abandoned house and the devil's castle. "
Zhou Bai observed the reactions of others while talking.
When he mentioned the abandoned house, the expressions on everyone's faces changed subtly.
"My personal suggestion is to go to Devil's Castle first.
There may be monsters near the abandoned house, so it is not the best choice now.
The devil's castle is about an hour away from here, we are rushing there now, and we should be able to arrive before nine o'clock.
We can take that abandoned house as an alternative, and first confirm the danger level of the devil's castle.
If it is really not suitable, we will speed up and rush to the abandoned house, and there is still time.
What do you think of my suggestion? "
David, the little tailor and Adam, all have no objections.
Hans just denied this suggestion at noon, but now that Zhou Bai brought it up again, he seems to have changed his attitude.
Standing in place without saying a word.
"Since everyone has no objection, let's make this decision first.
Everyone, hurry up and try to arrive as soon as possible. "
After Zhou Bai finished speaking, he led the people in the team and walked towards the direction of the devil's castle.
As the team got closer to the devil's castle, the surrounding trees became denser and denser.
Everyone quickened their pace and hurried on their way. After walking like this for more than an hour, they finally saw the roof of an unusually large building appearing in their sight.
Everyone was overjoyed, feeling that they were about to reach their destination.
But at this moment, they suddenly saw that there seemed to be one thing after another hanging on the tree in front of them.
