absurd deduction game.

The clatter of horse hooves echoed through the shadows of the lush trees.

The escort team is all human beings, and no matter how good their physical fitness is, they still have to eat, drink, and defecate. At night, when they can't see the road, they have to stop and set up camp.

But today, with the moon at the top of the sky, the escorts were very tired, and the handyman who was accompanying the team was about to collapse beside the truck, and the team still had no intention of stopping.

Mainly because the boss didn't say anything.

Everyone looked forward. Under the moonlight, the escort with a high ponytail was riding at the front. His upright posture showed no signs of fatigue. His hair swayed, forming a magical synchronization with the real ponytail.

He held the reins in his left hand and the riding crop in his right hand. The riding whip was wrapped loosely, as if it would break stones... or human skin at any time with the strength of the owner.

Several people who had been whipped could not help but shudder.

But there was no way to go on like this. The escorts made eye contact with each other in the dark environment for a while, and finally one of the unlucky ones moved forward on his horse and leaned next to Yu Xing.

"Head..."

Yu Xing was frowning and observing the environment. He tilted his head and uttered a confused monosyllable.

"Brothers are all tired, when can we rest?" The unfortunate guy hesitated, "We have passed several places suitable for setting up camp."

Yu Xing was silent for two seconds and pointed forward: "Is it a good place to rest?"

The unlucky guy took a look and said, "It fits!"

Their voices were not suppressed as they talked, and the people behind them also echoed: "Oh, it's so suitable!"

Yu Xing asked again: "Then do you think that place looks like a suitable place to set up camp that we passed before?"

Everyone who asked this question was taken aback.

After all, he was an escort all year round, and he was extremely vigilant. Within a few seconds, everyone reacted. After a closer look, it was true!
Didn't they pass by this place?
It was only because the woods looked like this and it was dark that they couldn't see clearly, so they didn't notice anything unusual until the leader didn't warn them.

"Call-"

The sound of reining in horses sounded one after another in the team.

The deep voice sounded to Yu Xing's ears like he was listening to Guo Degang's cross talk.

"Boss, have you noticed that we are spinning around in circles?!" the escort asked in shock, with a hint of questioning in the question.

After all, they should tell them as soon as they find out. They don't have much energy left, so why waste it!

Yu Xing smiled and slowly looked towards the person who made the sound.

"Are you blaming me?"

The man trembled, and then his ears and neck turned red, feeling a little ashamed: "Boss, I don't blame you, I just don't understand why you want us to go around in circles. We could have--"

His words failed him.

What could have been?Go to bed early if you're lost?Or could it have been corrected earlier?To be honest, in the dark, he couldn't identify the exact location.

He choked himself, but Yu Xing had no intention of taking it easy.

His smile widened and he asked sinisterly: "Why didn't you say anything? What could have been done?"

"I dare you to sleep here, do you dare to close your eyes?"

"Or do you have a very good sense of direction and can you find a way to get out?"

"Or, do you think I made you go around in circles, and this wouldn't happen if it were you?"

After asking three times, there was no sound at all from the team.

In fact, Yu Xing had long ago thrown the map to the person in the team who claimed to be the best at reading the road. That person was second in the team and was already like a quail at this time. He was just short of talking back.

"Everyone is very capable, but you can't see the road clearly, so you just want to sleep?" Head escort Yu Xing hadn't finished venting his anger. He sneered, "Idiot, you can get enough sleep if you die. I still want to ask, no. Let me remind you, how long will it take for you to discover something is wrong?"

Everyone became more silent.

In the silence, Yu Xing kicked over the man holding the map. The man fell off his horse in an awkward manner, and he kept begging for mercy: "Boss, it was my fault. I led the way blindly. Please calm down. Calm down." cool down……"

Yu Xing didn't even look at him, and was secretly vigilant while pretending to be a character.

The woods have been quiet for a long time.

The chirping of insects and the chirping of birds all disappeared, but the team that should have been alert seemed to have been blinded by something, and they were not alert at all.

An escort agency that can dispatch more than a dozen people in one trip is not a gathering place for parallel imports. After spending a long time together, Yu Xing can also feel that the people in the team are very good at walking in the mountains and have a good way of identifying animals and plants. No matter how unbearable these people are , not all of them are unaware of the danger.

The situation at this time was more like something affecting them and making them dull.

Yu Xing's eyes moved to the horse-drawn truck.

The packaged goods were exposed to the moonlight. Judging from the shape, it was a rectangular object more than two meters long. It was covered with cloth and fixed to the car by several turns of hemp rope.

Just looking at it this way, nothing unusual could be seen. Only the slightest uneasiness that kept digging into Yu Xing's heart could prove that there was something different around him.

Yu Xing also looked at the map and thought that the direction of walking was fine, but he circled back to the starting point. In order to confirm his feeling, he let it go and circled it twice more.

Then I decided that I was not lost, but that I had encountered a ghost.If his ability hadn't been forcibly blocked, he might have been able to lock on to the target as soon as the ghost made a small move. The plants in this mountain were all made of hands and eyes, and they would never be so passive.

Yu Xing thought and pulled out the knife.

Oh, of course, it's not like he has never been weak. Over the past many years, he has been getting weaker and has long since adapted to using his small skills to make a big difference.

If the system thought that doing this would trouble him, it was really making a mistake.

[I told you it wasn’t me!I have no such plans! 】

The female voice of the system screamed, vowing to prove her innocence.

Others screamed, the man who just questioned and the man who took the map but led the wrong way screamed at the same time, shouting: "Don't chop me!"

Yu Xing laughed disdainfully: "I've dirty my hands by chopping you idiots. You have never encountered such a situation in all these years of escorting in the mountains?"

There are ghosts in this world, and it is even more impossible for a bodyguard like Escort, who travels all year round, to know nothing about ghosts.

It was obviously mentioned in his character setting that he gradually realized that something was wrong with the things he was transporting. Could it be that when he experienced those things that were wrong, were everyone in the team blind?

It took everyone a few seconds to realize what kind of situation Yu Xing was talking about, and their expressions suddenly changed: "I hit something dirty!"

"Boss..." The unfortunate guy who came to persuade him to rest looked nervous, "To tell you the truth, every time I sleep these days, I feel like I'm being pressed by something, and I can also hear some vague strange noises. Why? I couldn’t wake up, but in the morning there was nothing there. I thought it was my imagination...it turned out there was really something dirty!”

"Me, me too!"

"It turns out that you are all...so am I!"

Yu Xing's face was expressionless.

Well, the case was solved. Before he took control of this character, every time there was a ghost, the rest of the team would fall asleep, leaving him alone to face everything.

That ghost is also quite interesting. Doesn’t it kill those who sleep?

And today, he deliberately delayed his rest time, and when it got there, no one was asleep, so this time everyone was haunted?

Silently curling his lips, Yu Xing turned his horse back and ordered: "Be on guard, leave five people to watch the goods, and the others will follow me to explore the surroundings."

Since it was this section of the road where ghosts hit the wall, there must be corresponding reasons, or conditions.

Ghosts are not that boring. Ghosts like this that come only after dark will automatically disappear as soon as dawn comes. At most, they will slow down their progress. And his mission does not limit time. This is equivalent to ghosts hitting the wall. There was no threat to him.

So in addition to the ghost hitting the wall, there must be factors in this place that can directly kill him.

Yu Xing didn't know whether the escort leader took the initiative or stayed there many nights before. In short, he was the escort leader now and would definitely choose the former.

Because he had been angry just now, no one dared to question the order he gave this time. Except for the five watchers and a handyman who was not good at fighting, the remaining seven people followed Yu Xing to the dense forest.

He left a mark on the last step to avoid getting lost, and Yu Xing followed some kind of sixth sense and headed in the direction that made him feel most uneasy.

After a while, the team stopped.

When they walked into the forest, they didn't have to go through the wall and go back to the original place. In front of them was a forest stream, which was relatively open and a rare and gentle place, which was really suitable for setting up a camp.

But at this time, there were already people there.

A small wooden house in the forest occupies the flat land. Two red lanterns are swaying under the eaves of the wooden house. There is a wooden table outside the wooden house and horizontal wooden benches placed around it.

In the dark night, the two touches of red on the lantern looked like a pair of bloody eyes.

Everyone was frightened and felt their eyes blurred.

They rubbed their eyes, and when they looked again, they found a woman standing next to the wooden table.

She was a woman in white clothes, with black hair hanging loosely. She had a pretty and pretty face, and she looked young.

The woman seemed to have seen them, and waved to them from a distance.

The big man suddenly got goosebumps all over his body.

What a hell!
The unlucky guy looked at Yu Xing hesitantly: "Boss, do we, do we--" Before the word withdrawal was uttered, their boss raised his lips happily.

That face with red lips and white teeth, which was definitely loved by ladies from aristocratic families, princes and nobles in the capital, not only had a different style of painting from rough guys like them, but also had a certain death-seeking temperament.

Either you are trying to kill yourself, or you are trying to kill others.

"Go and have a look."

Sure enough, what Yu Xing said was very deadly.

The escorts almost thought that the leader was seduced by beauty.

However, when they lowered their heads, they saw Yu Xing's cold sword that had not been sheathed. The hand was holding the handle, showing a hint of excitement for no reason.

Looking at the leader's back getting closer and closer to the woman in white, a ridiculous guess arose in everyone's mind.

Boss, don’t you want to kill the female ghost? (End of chapter)
