Chapter 286 Testing
It seemed that these wolves were indeed afraid of this place and did not dare to approach. The group of people gradually relaxed and decided to explore the situation around them.
Unfortunately, the night was too dark. Apart from the light of fire in the cave entrance not far away, nothing could be seen around them. Moreover, because they were afraid of the inexplicable "shock object" here, they did not dare to get too close to the cave entrance.
Although some of them carried talismans to ward off evil spirits, they would not try them rashly unless it was necessary.
There was an eerie silence in the valley. They took turns keeping watch, half of them leaning against the mountain wall with their eyes closed to rest, while the other half sat in front and watched the movements around them.
It was not until near midnight that a fire suddenly lit up in a cave in the distance. The dazzling light immediately attracted their attention.
That is not the cave where Liu Mao is.
After a while, two figures walked out of the cave. They narrowed their eyes and stared at the two figures.
As Ning Ji and Si He walked out of the cave, they saw a group of people looking over at them from a distance, and there were also many eyes glowing green in the forest, which were wolves.
One glance and you know what's going on.
Si He was sleeping soundly before and didn't hear the noise outside, but Ning Ji knew what happened. However, as long as there was no trouble, he was too lazy to pay attention.
Si He just took a quick glance and then walked with Ning Ji towards the valley next door, which was the extremely dark place.
Ning Ji held a torch in one hand and Si He in the other, and walked into the dark valley.
The wolves didn't dare to approach this valley, so the two of them had a smooth journey.
After a while, the two figures disappeared into the darkness.
A group of people in the distance looked at the direction the two men had disappeared, lost in thought. Their sudden appearance in the middle of the night was indeed a bit strange. Perhaps they were going to relieve themselves, but they felt that this was not the case. Furthermore, seeing how nonchalant the two men seemed when they saw the wolves in the distance, they were even more curious about what method they used to intimidate the beasts.
They waited quietly for a long time, but still no one came back, and they didn't hear any movement from the other side, and their doubts deepened.
After a while, several men whispered to each other, then stood up and said they were going to relieve themselves, but they were heading in the direction of the valley. They had talismans on them to protect themselves, so ordinary ghosts could not get close to them, so they were not so worried.
Tao Jin and others looked at the backs of several people curiously, and those who were originally resting also stared at them closely, wanting to know the reason why Ning Ji and Si He left and the secret of this valley.
When the men reached the cave where Liu Mao was, they stopped and looked inside. There was a small fire burning in the cave, so they could see the situation inside clearly. When they looked, they saw Liu Mao open his eyes vigilantly, and immediately picked up the big knife and shouted, "What do you want to do?"
Those people smiled calmly.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just passing by and need to relieve myself."
"Heh~ I heard you used a joker to scare off wild beasts, is that true?"
As they talked, they looked around the cave and the things inside. They found everything very ordinary and didn't find anything special. The talisman papers on their bodies also didn't show anything unusual.
This is really strange. If there is nothing unusual, what are those beasts in the distance afraid of?
At this moment, they were not in a hurry to leave, and wanted to explore Liu Mao's place first.
Liu Mao sneered and took out the joker from his pocket, "Huh~ What, do you want to try it?"
He hooked the rope on the joker with his index finger and shook it gently. The dark joker seemed to emit a cold glow under the light of the fire.
The leading man narrowed his eyes and stared at the swaying black wooden sign. Suddenly, he felt a burning sensation in his heart. He quickly lowered his head and patted his clothes, then took out the talisman paper that was stuck on his heart. He saw that the talisman paper had spontaneously combusted, but when he took it out, the flame was slapped away by him, and the talisman paper was half burned. It was completely ruined!
Seeing this, the man was shocked and immediately stepped back. Seeing this, the people around him also changed their expressions and followed suit.
"It's really an amazing thing!"
"We just need to go to the bathroom, there's no need for you to do anything!"
"Put that thing away quickly. If you hurt anyone, don't blame us for taking action! Don't think we're really afraid of you just because you have this thing!"
Several people spoke in succession, their expressions tense. The noise startled the people nearby, and they all stood up immediately. Some people even rushed over with knives in hand.
"what happened?"
As soon as those people came over and saw their two companions in front of the cave, they hurriedly patted their clothes, took out the self-igniting talisman paper, and retreated with a grim face.
‘Swish swish’
They immediately drew their swords and stared at Liu Mao in the cave vigilantly.
When Liu Mao saw them drawing their swords and their large numbers, he suddenly became a little nervous and hurriedly clenched the joker in his hand. He hadn't activated the joker yet, but it attacked on its own, making him a little overwhelmed, after all, he had never used it against anyone.
However, the effect was really good. As soon as this thing was used, he didn't even have time to react before the talismans on the people outside spontaneously combusted!
If they hadn't had the talisman paper protecting them, they would have been in trouble!
Wow~ what a great stuff!
He looked at the people outside with a smug look on his face and said, "Humph~ You're a bunch of malicious people. If I don't teach you a lesson, you really think I'm a sick cat!"
"You guys were just relieving yourself, and you wandered over to my cave? You said you had no ill intentions, are you kidding me?"
As Liu Mao spoke, he took the joker card and walked to the entrance of the cave.
Seeing this, the people outside retreated again and again. Their talisman papers had been self-ignited one after another, and there were not many talisman papers left on them. They could not waste any more!
In this short period of time, they also realized that the joker was not simple. If they continued to pester it, they would definitely suffer losses!
"Let's go!" They no longer dared to underestimate Liu Mao and quickly retreated to their previous resting place. This follower-like existence was already so troublesome, and they no longer dared to investigate the man and woman.
Liu Mao watched them retreat far away and did not attack again. He just snorted coldly and returned to the cave.
After returning to the cave, Liu Mao stared at the joker card with curiosity and awe. The reason why he didn't use the joker card again was mainly because he was afraid that he would lose control. He was actually still a little afraid of ghosts, and he didn't know what the things in the joker card looked like?
He looked at it for a while, then placed the joker card on the rock in front of the cave entrance and whispered, "Little Ancestor, you have to protect me. Don't let the bad guys outside get close. Of course, if you can avoid showing up, don't show up. Just make your move quietly like you did just now."
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and bowed, looking very pious.
The pitch-black ghost card made no sound, as if it were just an ordinary wooden sign, but he knew that the thing inside could understand what he meant. He looked at it quietly for a while before lying back in his nest to sleep.
