After the excitement, everyone quickened their pace under Chu Bubai's lead. The Nascent Ginseng that they yearned for in their dreams was right in front of them, and everyone was clearly unable to restrain themselves. It was as if even the exhaustion that had accumulated over the past few days had been swept away and had become light.
However, Lin Yi was a little puzzled at this time. To be honest, from the beginning, he had been suspicious of Chu Bubai. He always felt that this person had an unspeakable conspiracy, and all the strange things along the way did prove this point.
However, the medicinal fragrance of the Nascent Ginseng couldn't be deceived. Others had never seen the Nascent Ginseng before, so they could say that they were deceived by Chu Bubai, but Lin Yi had personally used the Nascent Ginseng to refine pills.
As an alchemist, the smell of this kind of super rare material, as long as one smelled it once, it was impossible to forget it. This point couldn't be faked at all, and it was impossible to deceive Lin Yi.
But if this smell was really the Nascent Ginseng, then what was Chu Bubai's conspiracy?
Using every possible means to bring so many people here, and now they were even about to find the Nascent Ginseng. Going around in such a big circle, what was his ulterior motive?
So far, although there were all kinds of strange things about Chu Bubai, he didn't cause any substantial harm to everyone. Instead, as he said, he really brought everyone to the destination, and they were only a few steps away from the legendary Nascent Ginseng.
Moreover, the addition of everyone so far had not helped him at all, including Lin Yi. He didn't have any use at all, and just blindly followed him.
Could it be that Chu Bubai deliberately brought them here just to quickly find the Nascent Ginseng, and there was no other bad intention? Could it be that he was really thinking too much, and this person was not as scheming as he thought?
However, all the strange things that happened along the way, how could he explain it?
Lin Yi looked at the back of Chu Bubai in front of him and couldn't help but be confused. Intuition told him that there must be a problem with this person, but it was really hard to say where the problem was.
Holding Huang Xiaotao's hand, Lin Yi continued to follow the crowd in front of him. He was not afraid that Chu Bubai would turn hostile at the end, but he was afraid that Chu Bubai would have other plans that he could not guard against. If he was not careful, it would be troublesome.
Of course, no matter what, Lin Yi's expectation for the Infant Ginseng was no less than that of anyone else present. Otherwise, he would not have taken Huang Xiaotao to take the risk despite knowing that Chu Bubai had hidden evil intentions. He pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger, and the only thing he wanted was the Infant Ginseng.
Therefore, Lin Yi was very excited to be able to smell the fragrance of the Infant Ginseng. Otherwise, if it was purely a trap set by Chu Bubai and there was no Infant Ginseng at all, then it would be meaningless for him to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger.
Because of the encouragement from the fragrance of the Nascent Ginseng, everyone had long since thrown the little bit of nervousness and fear in their hearts to the back of their minds. Even if they saw some Ghost Talisman Devil, they didn't care at all.
Even Feng Hongyu, who had been greatly stimulated and left a shadow in her heart, followed Chu Bubai all the way without any signs of timidity.
However, everyone found that something was not quite right. The frequency of the terrifying things like the Ghost Talisman Devil began to gradually decrease, but the atmosphere of the surrounding environment became colder and colder.
Under everyone's eyes, the originally clear path in the jungle began to become blurred. Even the corner of everyone's eyes could even see a ghostly shadow flashing from time to time.
Although they couldn't see clearly, the scene of the shadow jumping was real. They were all Gold Core stage masters with firm minds. They could be sure that this was definitely not an illusion. There must be something in it, and it was probably the unclean thing in the legend!
At this moment, the previously thin fog had unknowingly become a lot thicker. Just now, they could clearly see the blood moon hanging upside down in the sky, but now, when they looked up at the sky, it was simply a blur.
Even the figures that were only a few feet away from each other became blurred in the fog, and there was even a feeling of vague shadows. Coupled with the ghostly shadow flashing from the corner of their eyes from time to time, even though everyone was excited because of the Infant Ginseng, they couldn't help but shudder at this moment and felt a little guilty.
Huang Xiaotao was so scared that she subconsciously stuck close to Lin Yi, not daring to look at the surrounding scene. Guo Dengtao, Wang Feng, Feng Hongyu, and the others in front were all tiptoeing like frightened birds, not daring to stride forward like before.
In Lin Yi's heart, seeing this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Although he wasn't afraid, there were ghostly shadows flashing from time to time. They felt that they were not far from them, but they couldn't see clearly what they were. In this situation, it was impossible for them to not be afraid.
Fortunately, Lin Yi could be sure that the surrounding fog was not the poisonous fog above their heads. It could only affect everyone's perception, but it wouldn't kill them. This was a blessing in disguise.
Otherwise, even if they knew that there was a Infant Ginseng in this place, they had to quickly retreat. No matter how good the Infant Ginseng was, they had to be alive to obtain it. If they continued to stay here, they would only become fertilizer for the Infant Ginseng.
"Ah! There is no way forward! " Feng Hongyu suddenly exclaimed in front of them. She was following Chu Bubai at the front, and the others were following behind them. Only she and Chu Bubai knew the situation in front of them the best.
"What?" Guo Dengtao and Wang Feng were shocked and quickly went forward to check the situation. Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao looked at each other and followed.
The six of them stood in a circle and looked at the path that had completely disappeared. They couldn't help but look at each other in dismay, not knowing what to do.
Although the fog had become thicker and their feet had become blurry, they could still see the outline of the path. But now, even the basic outline was gone. There were only dense bushes and bushes in front of them. It seemed that this was the end of the path.
"Brother Chu, could it be that we've gone the wrong way?" Guo Dengtao couldn't help but ask. When a path suddenly came to an end, a normal person's first reaction would be to get lost.
After all, this place was covered in fog, and visibility was very limited. It was normal to get lost.
"No, I've been referring to the map and compass. The direction is definitely correct. Everyone doesn't need to panic. This path was passed down by my ancestors. I don't know how many years it has been since someone used it. It's normal for the path to disappear," said Chu Bubai calmly.
