Chapter 207 Stranger

After coming outside the building and basking in the sun, Jiang Cheng's complexion recovered a little. The fat man looked back at the slightly gloomy building, and his heart was beating "bang bang bang".

This feeling was very strange. He clearly saw nothing, heard nothing, and didn't even find the slightest abnormality, but just because of the influence of the doctor, it became like this.

He retracted his gaze and looked at the doctor. His lips trembled a few times, but before he could make a sound, he heard the doctor say: "Did Chen Ran and Su Xiaoxiao say where they were going?"

The fat man thought about it and shook his head very affirmatively, "No."

"Doctor," the fat man suddenly asked, "They, they didn't go to that forest, did they?" Looking at the forest that was obviously lush and green, but revealed a dead air, the fat man rejected it from the bottom of his heart.

He had personally experienced the weirdness in the forest. The strange fog that permeated the depths of the forest was like a quagmire that was difficult to extricate once you fell into it.

He never wanted to experience a similar experience a second time.

But the current situation is that they did not find Chen Ran and Su Xiaoxiao in the building. The seaside was empty, and so was the cliff. The few large rocks nearby seemed like they could hide people.

So

The result was obvious. While the doctor was sleeping, Chen Ran and Su Xiaoxiao went into the grove.

"Let's go," Jiang Cheng raised his legs and walked towards the forest, "Let's go and have a look."

Although the fat man wanted to persuade the doctor not to get close to the forest, it was obvious that the forest was hiding a very important secret about this mission, or it was not an exaggeration to say that it was the source.

After all, all this happened after the strange white stone plate was discovered.

Whether it was those "assimilated" ghosts or the curse itself

And the fat man was constantly thinking in his mind, what exactly did this curse refer to, and those assimilated things in Black Stone Town, they were not, but them!

What was their purpose?

The closer he got to the forest, the stronger the ominous feeling in the fat man's heart became. It was the beginning of all the mysteries, and it also carried the greatest crisis in the entire mission.

The fat man paused, as if he had thought of something, and even ignored the doctor's reaction, and immediately said: "Doctor, if the stone plate is really so dangerous, how did Su Xiaoxiao, Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ran run away?"

"Don't forget, so many people in Black Stone Town have already..."

Before the fat man finished speaking, Jiang Cheng walked into the forest, and the "rustling" footsteps sounded in his ears, like countless wild cats scratching.

The fat man couldn't help but be stunned.

Why is the doctor so strange today?

But this thought only flashed through his mind, and then he resisted the resistance in his heart and followed the doctor firmly.

They walked slowly into the depths of the forest.

As the journey progressed, the resistance in the fat man's heart became more and more obvious, and even difficult to suppress. He stared at the doctor's back, and suddenly an indescribable sense of strangeness emerged in his heart.

Although the doctor had always done his own thing before, he was really a little too weird today.

Slowly, the fat man's face changed slightly, and he suddenly had a bold guess.

Not only bold, but also quite horrifying, so much so that the fat man's sausage-like legs trembled just thinking about it.

And more importantly, if this guess is confirmed, then today is his death date, and this forest is his burial place!

Since Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ran may be "assimilated", what about the doctor?

Will he also be assimilated?

According to the fat man's understanding of the curse, it is probably not only seeing the stone plate with one's own eyes that will affect the curse, there may be other ways.

The missing Liang Long and the motorcycle girl may not be dead. They may also be "assimilated" and are now entangled with the ghosts in Black Stone Town.

And there is also that old woman, she is not right either.

The fat man's thoughts drifted further and further away. For a while, there were all kinds of complicated clues piled up in his head. They were entangled with each other and derived new speculations.

Reasoning was not his strong point, and now there was only a mess in his mind.

Although he thought a lot, it only took a short moment in reality, and he only followed the doctor into the forest for a few dozen meters, or even shorter.

But that was it.

Because the doctor in front of him had turned around, stood in place, looked at him with a look that the fat man couldn't understand, and then slowly bent his neck to one side

"Huh--" Someone squinted his eyes, the salty sea breeze blew on his face, and the bangs on his forehead were messy in the wind, but because of his outstanding appearance, he gave people a rare, independent hermit style.

"They went in," Su Xiaoxiao's voice sounded in his ears, without emotion, and even less warmth.

She tilted her head to look at Chen Ran who was still looking at the forest, and said lightly: "Mr. Chen, your method worked."

Chen Ran seemed to have received confirmation, slowly retracted his gaze, and then focused on Su Xiaoxiao's delicate face. After a while, he grinned and said: "Miss Su, you are joking. This is not just my credit." He paused and continued: "You also have a share."

Su Xiaoxiao did not comment on this. Protecting herself in the nightmare was the only choice, and her brother Su Ran was about to collapse.

She knew exactly what kind of person Chen Ran was. The risk of cooperating with him was shockingly great. To be honest, her favorability towards Chen Ran was even weaker than that of the guy named Hao Shuai.

At least that one looked more sincere.

But opinions always change as cognition deepens, especially when Chen Ran showed her what he found, or more precisely, clues.

Extremely important clues.

It was a carving, carved behind a broken stone pillar that they often passed by, opposite the stone door they broke for the first time.

There was almost nothing around the stone pillar, which seemed very abrupt, but it was this contrast that made everyone ignore it. After all, no one thought that the clue could be left in such an obvious place.

"Mr. Chen, I want to know how you noticed the carving?" She held back her sharpness in her eyes, not aggressive, but just strangely curious.

After all, although the stone pillar is obvious, the carving method is the same as the method used to carve creatures on the stone door, both are dark patterns, which can't be seen directly, and can only be revealed by using water or dust.

"Heh," Chen Ran tilted his head to look at her. After a while, the corners of his mouth raised exaggeratedly. Then he took out a folded paper from his arms, pinched a corner, and shook it in front of Su Xiaoxiao.

"Miss Su," Chen Ran said with a smile, "Do you have any more questions?"
