Several of them carried a large red bridal sedan chair on their shoulders. The sedan chair was covered in damage and dirt, and it seemed to have been abandoned for an unknown period of time.
A figure could be vaguely discerned within it, but it was not clearly visible.
However... there's no need to see it clearly.
Do we really need to see things clearly to know what happened?!
"I think...we should slip away first?"
The cold-cooked rabbit, which had been so reckless just moments before, immediately cowered and ran back, muttering under its breath, vividly demonstrating its bullying of the weak and fear of the strong.
"...Spring drowsiness and autumn fatigue, don't sleep...don't doze off, it's time to run."
She patted the sand between her fingers, her eyes already closed, standing there, feeling increasingly drowsy and tired, and reminded herself.
However, at that moment...
"Hey there, pretty girl, let me give you a little nibble! The benefits are huge!"
Zhou Ke'er had somehow gotten to the front and was blocking the group of ghosts. She looked extremely lewd and shouted in a strange tone, "If you refuse, you'll die!"
Seeing this scene, even the perpetually expressionless flamingo couldn't help but show a look of disgust.
"...What is he doing?!"
Zhijiansha, who was already ready to make a runaway, was shocked by Zhou Ke'er's actions and couldn't help but ask immediately.
"What else could they be doing? Of course, they just figured they could escape anyway, so they started to act recklessly."
Honghe squinted and answered matter-of-factly, "Although I didn't expect this guy's standards to be so low again."
Chen Tian remained silent, practically invisible; it was unclear whether she was in Chen Tian's current state or Chen Tian's current state.
"Ha...Should we still run?"
He yawned, feeling drowsy in spring and tired in autumn, and rubbed his sleepy eyes before asking a question.
"Run! Of course we have to run. Just because he can escape doesn't mean we can."
Flamingo, who had already retreated several steps, replied matter-of-factly, "Are you worried he won't be able to escape, so you're waiting here to help him?"
In short, the Red Crane team showed no camaraderie and immediately ran away, completely unconcerned about Zhou Ke'er's life or death.
Of course, Zhou Ke'er didn't care about this—she really didn't care; she just made a mental note of it.
"Fine, I'm speaking to you nicely and you won't even answer me? Do you not respect me? You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!"
Before the ghosts could answer—though he felt they probably wouldn't—Zhou Ke'er immediately put on an angry expression, put his hands on his hips, pointed at them, and angrily rebuked them.
Of course... the instant she reached out, Zhou Ke'er casually shaped a small ball of spiritual energy and tossed it over.
There was nothing he could do; he didn't know the Returning to Emptiness Technique and didn't have any special finger-flicking skills, so he couldn't shoot out the spiritual energy needles and could only rub them into balls and throw them away.
"boom!"
Since Zhou Ke'er wasn't very good at throwing, the spirit ball barely landed near the first few ghosts and monsters before exploding with a "pong".
The ground was affected by the blast wave, and flying debris flew everywhere, but it did not harm the group of ghosts; it simply passed right through them.
Fortunately, spiritual energy can indeed affect spirits, especially its corrosive and polluting effects, which are particularly harmful to spirits.
The ghosts and monsters affected by the attack, already appearing eerie and pale, were further corroded, revealing their original rotten state—rottenness alone wouldn't be so bad, but the main problem was... some had even become gigantic...
just disgusting.
Fortunately, Zhou Ke'er wasn't intimidated by this, and even felt a little hungry.
However, even after being openly attacked by Zhou Ke'er, and even after the previous ghosts had been seriously injured, the group of ghosts still did not pay any attention to Zhou Ke'er. They remained blank-eyed and stared straight at Zhou Ke'er—no, strictly speaking, they continued to walk forward along this path.
"Oh ho?? You look down on me, don't you?"
Zhou Ke'er immediately felt looked down upon, rolled up her sleeves, and charged headlong into the horde of ghosts, lunging at the bridal sedan chair.
"pia ji"
Zhou Ke'er passed through the bridal sedan chair without any hindrance and lay down on the ground.
The group of ghosts still ignored Zhou Ke'er. They even walked a few more steps along the road before disappearing from the spot before Zhou Ke'er could even get up in a fit of anger.
"What?! Are you kidding me?!"
Zhou Ke'er's mood immediately soured. He had originally come here to mess with these monsters, thinking he could escape no matter what, but now he was the one being mocked!
So what exactly are these ghosts trying to do by passing through here?
Zhou Ke'er slunk up from the ground, coughed twice, and pretended to be someone who had taken care of all those ghosts by herself. She then strode confidently toward the place where Honghe and the others had fled.
## Chapter 351, Section 346: Sand Between Fingers Wants to Escape
"Hey, hey, hey, that's so unfair of you guys! How could you just abandon me and run away?! Where did our teamwork go?! Aren't we the best of friends?!"
Zhou Ke'er jogged to catch up with Honghe and the others—after all, they had deliberately slowed down, not running at the speed of someone in a real hurry—and put on an expression that said, "My child, Dad is very disappointed in you," and said with great heartache.
"When you rush in front of those ghosts shouting 'Pretty girl,' it's no longer the same."
Honghe glanced at Zhou Ke'er expressionlessly and read the words in a monotone tone.
How could you say that?! Do you think our relationship is something that breaks down so easily?!
Zhou Ke'er's eyes widened.
"It's as if we have feelings."
Honghe squinted and hit the nail on the head.
"Alright, alright, let's stop arguing for now."
Zhang He, who was listening from the sidelines with great helplessness, sighed and could only try to smooth things over—because Zhijiansha was too lazy to smooth things over anymore—saying, "However, next time if you have something you want to do, it's best to inform the others first. Although we don't have the right to stop you from doing so, you should at least know what you're going to do. Otherwise, if something happens, others may also be implicated."
"..."
Zhou Ke'er looked at Zhang He with a deep expression, then sighed and said, "Do you know that when a whale poops, its buttocks have to open very wide, and it can't close them for a long time after it finishes, which is very painful? You don't know because you only care about yourself."
"???"
Zhang He was completely bewildered, totally missing Zhou Ke'er's wildly unpredictable train of thought.
"I think we should split up and work separately, otherwise it will be very inefficient."
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
Zhou Ke'er instinctively wanted to retort, "Are you crazy or am I crazy to split up in a place like this?" But when she turned around, she saw that it was Chen Tian, who had been silent all along, who had said those words.
Moreover, she kept giving Zhou Ke'er meaningful glances, as if she had something to say to Zhou Ke'er in private, but how could Zhou Ke'er possibly understand what she wanted to say from her eyes! Zhou Ke'er doesn't have mind-reading abilities.
"!"
Detective Finger Sand's eyes sharpened!
She discovered that while Chen Tian was saying they should split up, he was also subtly flirting with Zhou Ke'er, which was definitely a calculated move with ulterior motives!
I've suspected these two are up to something for a while now, and they're actually being blatant about it! And Honghe is right there!
Finger Sand felt heartbroken and indignant at Zhou Ke'er's despicable and depraved behavior.
"This is a special item I got from a previous module, a one-time teleportation talisman. I've already set the teleportation location to the safe house. The magic circle summoned by tearing it can accommodate four people at once, so you guys can decide who to take care of. As for me, I'll go with Zhou Ke'er. What do you guys want to do?"
Chen Tian took out a talisman from her bosom and handed it to Honghe. After all, she felt that among the people present, apart from herself and Zhou Ke'er, the most powerful one with the ability to protect herself was Honghe, who had activated her character template. Naturally, she could not stay with them anymore, otherwise the safety of the remaining people would be difficult to guarantee.
"!!!"
Detective Finger Sand's eyes widened!
That's a straight ball!
They've started right away, no pretense at all! They've launched an attack directly on the main target, the flamingo!
This is terrifying! Is this the legendary battleground of carnage?!
Finger Sand felt... that she, a weak, pitiful, and helpless little thing, was better off not getting involved.
After all... he was mostly sleeping due to spring drowsiness and autumn fatigue. Although Zhang He would sometimes offer his opinions, he generally agreed to others' suggestions as long as they didn't violate his principles. As for the cold-cooked rabbit... well, although it sounds bad, well... let her do as she pleases; normally he wouldn't pay her any attention.
As for Zhijiansha herself, she dared not get involved in the current situation.
So... once the main culprit, Red Crane, is dealt with, the others will be forced to split into teams whether they want to or not...
Chen Tian has such a deep and calculating mind! I never expected this usually quiet guy to be so...
Zhijiansha finally realized how terrifying Chen Tian was. Before, she hadn't taken her seriously because Chen Tian was quiet and didn't seem to have much presence. But now that she thought about it... sure enough, Zhou Ke'er had introduced her from the beginning; she was one of the first people qualified to leave the cabin. How could it be that simple?!
This child is terrifyingly powerful!
"……it is good."
Red Crane stared at Chen Tian expressionlessly for a while. Just when Finger Sand almost thought they were about to start an epic battle, Red Crane nodded, reached out and took the talisman, agreeing to the plan to split up.
"!!!"
Detective Finger Sand's eyes widened again: How could Flamingo have agreed so easily?!
She suddenly had a bad feeling, for some reason.
"However, this talisman can only hold four people, which means you'll need to bring at least one more person with you."
Before Chen Tian could say anything more, Honghe continued her analysis: "Your side has no shortage of support and main force, but it would be best to have a teammate who can assess the situation and plan carefully to help you devise strategies, so that you don't act too recklessly and end up not being able to escape. As for the choice... you might not listen to Zhang He, so it's better to have Zhijiansha with you."
"???!!"
The famous detective was dumbfounded!
Zhijiansha started to want to escape. Why didn't they ask for her opinion first, you bastard! Why did they send her to do such a dangerous undercover surveillance job?! She'll definitely be killed by Zhou Ke'er, no, she'll definitely be killed by Chen Tian!
He was thinking too much, and the sand was trembling.
"Hmm...that works too."
Chen Tian thought for a moment, nodded, and did not refuse, "Then it's like this, four of you over there, three of us over here, let's split up. I happen to have a map here too."
You agreed?! Why did you agree so easily?!
The girl's pupils dilated in shock as she stared at Chen Tian in disbelief. She had thought Chen Tian would refuse, or at least try to decline several times. She hadn't expected Chen Tian to accept so easily. What did this mean? Had she already planned a way to deal with her?
Could it be... that they saw she was too weak, lacking any means of offense, defense, or escape, and planned to plot her death, then make it look like they couldn't rescue her in time and had no choice but to put on a show?! After getting rid of her, they can finally enjoy some alone time with Zhou Ke'er, right?!
That's so insidious, so vicious, so despicable!
