Dai Wei looked in the direction of Di Jing's voice.
"How … how is this possible?!"
The expression on his face was replaced by a touch of horror. "I clearly threw out a shroud. How did it turn into a piece of skin?"
"Let's go take a look."
Di Jing did not want to go at first, but she could not suppress her curiosity no matter what. Therefore, she followed Old Shen. Dai Wei clenched his teeth and followed Old Shen.
When everyone walked to the side of that piece of skin.
In the grass in front of him was a piece of bloody, brownish-yellow skin. It seemed to have been peeled off from an animal, and it gave off a strong pungent smell.
Old Shen looked serious as he turned his head to look at Dai Wei. "Xiaodai, are you sure you threw the shroud here?"
"I'm sure!"
Dai Wei's expression was extremely ugly.
Old Shen nodded. He got a branch to check the area within 20 meters, but he could not find the red shroud at all.
Without the shroud, there was an extra piece of skin.
At this moment, the great novelty that they had just escaped from a dangerous situation was gone, and a trace of haze appeared in their hearts.
Old Shen bowed to the bloody skin first. Subsequently, he picked up the skin with the branch in his hand and looked at it. He said in his deep voice, "It's yellow skin!"
As soon as he said that.
Di Jing's expression changed drastically.
Dai Wei took a step back immediately and fell onto the ground. "Old Shen, did you say that it's a yellow skin?"
"Not bad!"
Old Shen nodded and said, "The yellow-skinned man's back is darker. It's brown or brownish-yellow. His belly is lighter, and there's a white spot under his neck. Coupled with the stench, it's obvious."
"Old Shen, why do you think there are yellow skins by the roadside?" Di Jing frowned slightly, feeling a little puzzled.
"It's hard to say."
Old Shen took a deep breath in and said, "It's not rare to see a weasel here, but why is there a skin instead of a carcass? Moreover, the shroud that Xiaodai lost earlier is gone."
"Could it be that Dai Wei is wearing this … this …" Di Jing said in a strange tone.
Old Shen fell silent immediately.
"Don't … don't say it, don't say it!"
Dai Wei screamed in fear. He stood up and said, "Old Shen, I want to go back. I want to go back!"
He knew that because of what happened last year, there was a high possibility that he was now being harassed by the yellow-skinned people. For safety's sake, the geographical expedition was all fake.
"You're leaving? What are we going to do?"
Di Jing frowned.
Dai Wei was the only one in the team who knew how to drive, and the car belonged to him. If he drove the car back, they could only follow.
"It's useless."
However, Old Shen shook his head and said, "Xiaodai, they're already after you. Where can you run to? Into outer space? "
"Then … then what should I do?"
Dai Wei was so scared that he almost cried.
Old Shen looked at Di Jing when he heard that and sighed softly. "Little Di is from the northeast. We can only ask her to help us figure out a way to contact an immortal to resolve the grudge between you guys."
"I … I'm going to contact the Immortals?" Di Jing was stunned.
"That's right!"
Old Shen nodded and said, "From what I know, most of the immortals are gathered in the northeast. Many people in the northeast believe in the House Protector Immortal and Chuma Immortal. Help Xiaodai contact a famous sect and get a chuma disciple to try."
Dai Wei begged Di Jing as if he was grabbing onto a life-saving straw, "Di Jing, I, Dai Wei, have always treated you well. Please don't leave me in the lurch."
"A-alright, I'll try my best." Eventually, Di Jing agreed reluctantly. However, she was not confident. After all, she did not know any immortals or chuma disciples.
However, she figured the older generation should know.
"Let's go. Let's hurry up and get to Gourd Island before the sky turns dark." Old Shen sighed and urged the few of them to go.
Dai Wei looked at the piece of skin in the bushes and asked by instinct, "W-What about it?"
"Don't bother about it. This thing is very vengeful. It's useless even if you bury it. Instead, it'll waste our time."
Old Shen shook his head and sat in the car.
As the car drove, Ye Chen turned his head to look at the forest 100 meters away. He could faintly see a few brownish-yellow silhouettes moving in the forest.
He shook his head and looked away. He decided not to bother about it after all. Moreover, Dai Wei was the one who caused this, so naturally, he had to bear the consequences himself.
Most importantly, he disliked Dai Wei's character. Otherwise, he would have helped him solve the problem.
The car ran out of gas after driving for more than ten kilometers. Just when Dai Wei was about to call the insurance company to send some gas back, a Land Rover passed by. Di Jing hurriedly stopped the car and persuaded it to sell some gas to her.
Di Jing did not reject Ye Chen as much this time. The few of them chatted happily.
Dai Wei, who was driving, was pissed to see that.
He had lusted for Di Jing, so naturally, he did not want her to interact with other men too often. Since he had embarrassed himself so many times, naturally, he shifted his anger to Ye Chen.
He suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Chen when they were less than 20 kilometers away from Huludao. "Oh, we're almost there. Where do you plan to get off?"
"Just drop me off at the station," Ye Chen said coldly.
Yang Tian had sent him the address before coming. He should be able to find a direct train at the station.
"Mr. Ye, where's your friend? If it's not far, you can get Dai Wei to drop you off directly, "Old Shen said while smiling.
Dai Wei secretly scoffed.
Dai Wei laughed coldly to himself and wanted to reject him.
Ye Chen shook his head lightly. "There's no need for that."
He was not being polite to Old Shen, but he did not want Dai Wei's karma to implicate him and Yang Tian.
Seeing that Old Shen was going to say something, Dai Wei interrupted immediately, "Alright, Old Shen. Mr. Ye isn't a three-year-old kid. Are you afraid that he'll get lost? Moreover, we have our own business to attend to. We don't have that much time. "
…
Over half an hour later, the off-road vehicle arrived at Huludao's bus station.
"Please, Mr. Ye," Dai Wei opened the car door and said with a fake smile. He was afraid that Ye Chen would insist on getting a ride.
Ye Chen nodded lightly. Just when he was going to get off, Di Jing, who was standing aside, suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
"You can call me if you encounter any trouble at Huludao. After all, this is my hometown. My words are more useful than an outsider like you."
She took out a name card and passed it to Ye Chen after saying that.
"Thanks for your kindness, but there's no need for that."
Ye Chen rejected her with a cold smile. He walked into the station after getting Iron Tower out of the car. He did not even turn his head back.
Di Jing was dumbstruck to see that he did not want her name card. She was a little pissed.
'Haha.
So what if you don't want it?
Do you really think I want it?! '
"Di Jing, ignore this kind of person. He's so arrogant." Dai Wei sneered and started the car.
Di Jing took a good look at the direction where Ye Chen left. She could not help but ask, "Old Shen, who exactly is this Mr. Ye?"
Along the way, she noticed that Ye Chen was quiet and aloof. To be exact, he looked down on everything even though Dai Wei had tried to provoke him time and time again. He ignored him directly with a disdainful attitude.
"I've no idea. However, based on my observation, I believe that Mr. Ye is an extraordinary person," Old Shen said while shaking his head.
"Haha!"
"Not an ordinary person?"
Dai Wei could not help but say, "Old Shen, have you seen an extraordinary person who doesn't take a plane but takes a ride with us shamelessly?"
Di Jing thought about it and shook her head.
Di Jing thought about it and shook her head.
Di Jing thought about it and shook her head.
'That's right.
