Chapter 2363 A terrible night, be careful!
As night falls, rustling sounds can be heard from time to time in the quiet woods.
Ling Tian and Wang Jie walked slowly together, paying attention to the movements around them from time to time. Both of them moved very slowly and were extremely cautious.
As the night fell completely, the entire forest instantly fell into dead silence. It was pitch dark and impossible to move.
At this moment, Ling Tian took out a flashlight, looked at Wang Jie and said, "I'm turning on the flashlight now. There are two possible outcomes. The first is that we are not discovered and can continue forward, entering the Holy Mountain faster."
"The second possibility is that the moment we turn on the flashlight, we'll be discovered by the monsters in the Holy Mountain, captured, and instantly killed. We'll never be able to return to Weicheng. So... what do you think, should we turn on the flashlight or not?"
Hearing this, Wang Jie stopped. In the darkness, his eyes looked around, a hint of fear flashing in them as he said, "How about... we not open it? My friend, if we are strong enough, we can definitely open it, but you also said that there are too many adult demon beasts in the Holy Mountain. Shouldn't we be careful?"
"Indeed." Ling Tian nodded. "Then let's rest here? Then move forward during the day? But if we need to rest, we have to take turns, otherwise it will be dangerous."
"I know. You rest first. Then when you've had enough sleep, I'll rest. I still won't turn on the lights. I'm a little scared."
"Row."
Ling Tian also somewhat agreed with Wang Jie's proposal, so he nodded and agreed.
Although he wanted to hurry up and try to shorten the time he spent outside Weicheng, he was still a little worried about the monsters in the holy mountain.
The oppressive feeling brought by the terrifying combat power of an adult monster is really too great.
No matter how strong Ling Tian is, he dare not act rashly.
The most important thing is that the night in the holy mountain is so dark that when you turn on the flashlight, it feels like sending a flare.
So Ling Tian was a little scared and didn't dare to open it casually.
After the two of them made their decision, Ling Tian set up the tent on the spot. He then looked at Wang Jie and said, "Uncle Wang, I'll sleep for a maximum of four hours. You can rest after that. Is that okay?"
"Well, rest first, little friend. I'm fine."
"That's good."
Ling Tian nodded and walked into the tent to rest. Wang Jie looked around, and the vigilance in his eyes deepened.
To be honest, if it were daytime, he would definitely not be as nervous as he is now.
But at night, he would only notice the monster if it appeared within five meters of him, so he was very alert and did not dare to delay for a moment.
However, as time passed, Wang Jie did not relax because nothing happened, but became more and more nervous.
After all, he had heard strange cries more than once.
As a former beast killer, he was extremely familiar with the cries of monsters.
The sounds that just sounded were definitely the sounds of monsters.
So he took a deep breath, looked at the flashlight in his hand, hesitated for a long time, and murmured, "I have to protect Ling Tian, so... I do all this to protect him. As long as I don't shine the flashlight into the sky, I'll be fine and there won't be any danger."
Wang Jie thought about it, pointed the flashlight at the ground and pressed the switch.
The moment the flashlight was turned on, the huge brightness scared Wang Jie himself.
After all, he hadn't seen the light of day for several hours.
As the flashlight turned on, the huge brightness was not only difficult for people to adapt to, but also made the eyes feel a little uncomfortable.
Wang Jie closed his eyes and after getting used to it for a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.
However, the moment he opened his eyes, he saw a huge head only half a meter away from him, within the range of the flashlight, with its red pupils wide open, staring at him.
“Oh my god!!”
Wang Jie was startled and threw the flashlight directly to the ground. At this time, the flashlight also shone directly into the sky, like a beam of light, which was extremely conspicuous in the night.
At the same time, Ling Tian in the tent heard the sound and rushed out quickly. When he saw the monster close at hand and the direction of the flashlight, he was shocked. He hurriedly drew out the Blood Sword, first quickly chopped off the head of the monster in front of him, then turned off the flashlight and looked at Wang Jie beside him with confusion in his eyes.
Ling Tian stared at Wang Jie. After his breathing calmed down a bit, he said, "Uncle Wang, what are you doing? Didn't you agree not to use the flashlight? And how did this monster appear? Why is it so close?"
"I I I..."
Wang Jie's voice trembled and he was unable to speak for a moment because of fear.
After all, the impact of the scene just now was too great.
In the dark night, a pair of red eyes stared at him.
To be honest, if he wasn't so brave, he would have fainted from the impact.
But no matter how brave he was, he was still very scared at this moment and couldn't even finish his words.
After about five minutes, Wang Jie took a deep breath and looked at Ling Tian. A hint of apology appeared in his eyes as he said, "I'm sorry, my friend. I just wanted to use the flashlight to illuminate the ground so as not to attract attention. However, the monster appeared anyway and I got startled."
Hearing this, Ling Tian frowned slightly, but did not open his mouth to accuse.
Is it useful to blame now?
If time could be reversed, then perhaps blaming would be useful.
But since that doesn't work, what we need to consider now is how to deal with the aftermath.
Ling Tian nodded and said nothing. Instead, he pointed to the tent nearby and said, "Uncle Wang, please fold up the tent. Let's change positions. Those monsters should have seen the flashlight, but they haven't come over yet. I'll sense the surrounding situation for you while you put your things away."
"it is good!"
Wang Jie knew that he had made a mistake, so he didn't complain at all. He started packing up his things and hurriedly followed Ling Tian forward.
This time, Ling Tian did not turn on the light, relying purely on his intuition to start looking for a way forward.
After walking for about an hour, the two stopped and sat down.
Ling Tian sat on the ground, took a deep breath, looked at Wang Jie and said, "Uncle Wang, I'll take care of you at night from now on. In the morning, I'll sleep for an hour or two to replenish my energy. That's enough."
"I……"
"Don't refuse this. I know you're older, so let's be considerate of each other."
"I'm sorry, little friend."
Wang Jie lowered his head, his eyes full of apology.
Ling Tian shook his head and was about to speak when he suddenly sensed something. He turned his head sharply and looked into the distance, his eyes fixed on the distance. He waved his hand at Wang Jie and said, "Uncle Wang, get up quickly. Let's keep going. There's... there's a monster coming!"
