Wang Qi's sudden shout frightened everyone. Everyone thought that what had happened last time had frightened her.
"What's wrong?" Li Chen asked with concern.
"Sister Yu, do you still remember the last time we went to pick wild fruits?"
When Zhao Yu heard Wang Qi's words, she immediately understood and quickly stood up. "That's right! If you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten."
Wang Qi and Zhao Yu's actions shocked everyone. Everyone was confused.
"It's like this. The last time we went to pick fruits, we found a place with a lot of wild fruits."
Zhao Yu said excitedly to everyone. Everyone immediately became excited.
If there were wild fruits, they could be picked and eaten. Li Chen quickly led everyone to pick them.
"Sister Yu, I'll have to trouble you to lead the way," Li Chen said.
"Alright, everyone, bring your tools. Let's go!" Wang Qi and Zhao Yu said happily. Then, they led everyone towards the wild fruit field.
Finally, they arrived at the wild fruit field. Sure enough, this place was just as they had said. There were fruit trees everywhere. The fruit trees were filled with fruits, and everyone happily picked them.
However, Li Chen realized that something was wrong. He carefully checked his surroundings.
"That's not right," Li Chen muttered to himself. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Yu saw Li Chen looking around and felt that something must have happened.
Li Chen carefully checked the area of the fruit trees. The fruit trees here were very concentrated. It was obvious that it was not grown in the wild. Moreover, there seemed to be a similar distance between each fruit tree, which would definitely not be possible in the wild.
"You mean someone planted it? These fruit trees were specially planted by someone else?" Zhao Yu immediately understood.
Li Chen nodded and said thoughtfully, "It's very likely, but I'm not sure."
Zhao Yu quickly comforted Li Chen and told him not to think too much. At this moment, whether it was man-made or not, the most important thing was to pick the fruits and fill everyone's stomachs.
"Everyone, pay more attention to your surroundings when you pick them. Be careful!" Li Chen hurriedly instructed.
"Ah!" someone suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong?" Li Chen quickly ran over to check.
That person climbed up the tree to pick fruits, but he wasn't careful so he fell heavily to the ground.
This scene made everyone laugh. "Slow down and be careful!" Li Chen hurriedly instructed.
"D*mn, it doesn't matter if I fall, but I actually fell on a rock. It hurts so much!" That person said as he reached his hand under his body to feel for the rock.
"This is it. It's quite big!" As he spoke, that person pulled out the stone under him, but this time, it frightened everyone.
Because what he took out was not a stone, but a human skull!
"Ah!"
"Ghost!"
Wang Qi and the others were so frightened that they hid behind Li Chen. When Li Chen saw a skull was suddenly taken out, he was so nervous that he could not speak.
"What are you guys panicking for? It's just a rock!" He was still in a joking mood, but then he turned it around and saw that it was a skull.
"Oh my god!"
He was so frightened that he scrambled into the crowd and did not dare to come out. He kept muttering, "I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't do it on purpose."
After everyone calmed down, Li Chen walked forward and picked up the skull to examine it carefully.
"Li Chen, you have to be careful!" Everyone quickly reminded him.
"Don't be afraid. It's fine. It's very safe," Li Chen said after checking.
After Li Chen's careful observation, he realized that this skull was stained with soil. It was obvious that it had been a long time ago. He could conclude that this was a person who had died here. However, as for when, it must have been a long time ago.
"It doesn't look safe here either. Everyone, hurry up and pick some fruits. After that, we'll hurry back."
Li Chen quickly told everyone to move quickly while vigilantly observing the surroundings for everyone.
Li Chen knew in his heart that this place was most likely dangerous. Otherwise, this person would not have died here.
"Ding, ding, ding, ding." A series of hurried bells rang.
"Wait, there's movement!"
"Did you hear a bell ring?"
Li Chen quickly stopped everyone. Everyone immediately stopped talking and stood rooted to the ground. However, their bell noise was gone.
"Bells? How can there be bells in the wilderness?"
"Other than the sound of birds, we can't hear anything."
"Li Chen, aren't you too nervous? It might just be the sound of a bird."
Everyone thought that Li Chen had heard wrongly, so they did not take it seriously and continued to pick fruits. Li Chen also felt that he might have been too nervous that he might have misheard.
"Ring, ring, ring!"
"What's that sound?" This time, everyone heard the sound of bells ringing. Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing. Li Chen hurriedly called for everyone to hide.
"Li Chen, it seems like we wronged you just now. There were indeed bells ringing."
"Everyone, be careful and don't make a sound. Let's observe for a while before taking action." Li Chen told everyone to hide first and not go out rashly.
Everyone listened to Li Chen's words. Coupled with the skull that had just been discovered, they were so afraid that they did not dare to go out. However, after a long time, the bells did not ring again.
Li Chen saw that nothing was happening around him, so he decided to go out first.
"Li Chen, let's go out together."
"No, you guys hide here and act according to my instructions." Li Chen rejected everyone's good intentions.
Then, he gently crossed the grass and returned to the fruit tree.
Li Chen looked at the apple tree in front of him. He seemed to have an idea of what was going on, so he quickly climbed up the tree.
Standing high up and looking far away, Li Chen, who had climbed up the tree, did not see anything. After observing for a while, he felt that this place should be safe!
"Come on out. It's safe."
"Everyone, come out and put away the fruits. Let's go back quickly. We can't stay here for long."
Li Chen instructed.
When everyone heard Li Chen's words, they all came out. They put the fruits into their pockets one by one and planned to leave quickly.
Just as everyone was busy, the surrounding grass rustled.
"Li Chen, look!"
Li Chen looked at the grass over there. "There's something in the grass. Everyone, pay attention."
Li Chen said. Everyone decisively picked up the things on the ground. Some grabbed a broken wooden stick, while others grabbed a stone, preparing to face this sudden danger.
However, the sound stopped abruptly, and the grass returned to calm.
"F*ck, it's messing with us! Who doesn't know how to scare people!"
A strong man walked over with a stick.
