hid behind a large tree, secretly observing the movement of the wind and grass.Through our careful arrangement, I tell you, from afar, the mountain goblin didn't look dead, but rather seemed to be res...Several more hours passed, and a gentle breeze blew in.
"We did it!" I beamed with joy. Wind blowing in from outside meant we had succeeded.
Smashing through the last layer of soil, a black hole half a meter long appeared on the wall. A slight cool breeze blew in, and Red Sister strained her neck to look outside.
"How, how could this be..."
"What's wrong, Sister Hong What's going on outside Did you find something"
Sister Hong's face was constantly changing, she said in a low voice: "Let's get inside first and then talk. Staying here all night is risky. I roughly calculated the time, they will come to deliver food in three hours. During this time, we need to stay as far away from here as possible.
"> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Who let you follow us" Red Sister raised an eyebrow as she saw Researcher An preparing to flee with them.
An researcher clutched his shirt nervously, whispering: "I... please take me with you. I don't want to die, I promise, I promise not to hold you back.
"Coward," Red Sister turned away with a displeased face, no longer speaking. She seemed to have left the decision to me.
The researcher had messy hair and a dirty face. She just looked at me pitifully.
"Sister Hong, why don't we take her with us We wouldn't be where we are today without her help," I softened my stance and pleaded for her.
"Line up," Hongjie pointed at her and said, "You can come with us too. This time, you go in first."

Red Sister had hit her before, and Researcher An knew deep down that she was being treated like a lab rat. She looked at the dark hole in the wall and felt fear, but she was even more afraid of us abandoning her, so she didn't dare say much.
We pushed from behind and let Researcher An squeeze through first.
I waited there for five minutes, and then I heard Dr. An's voice say, "I'm fine, the ground here is a little soft, come over here."
I am the second one who passed away, and Hong Jie is the last.
"That's not right, how come there's so much mud here," I said as soon as I landed. I looked around and everything was muddy. It was hard to walk on the surface, it felt like walking in riverbed silt.
I turned to ask Hongjie if she knew anything about this place.
"Yunfeng, do you remember the wooden mountain we saw when we first arrived here" Hongjie mused thoughtfully.
"Wooden Mountain.....Red Sister, are you talking about that winding path I know it. We've seen the mural on the wall there before. Back then, Second Brother said we were close because we smelled those old faces of fungus on the cypress trees, so we had hallucinations when looking at the mural. Later, we only woke up after taking that bottle of medicine, right"
I recalled the scene from that time.
I said something was wrong, and here it is.
"Hong Jie took a look around and recalled, "When I looked at the murals before, there wasn't just a coffin depicted, but also a muddy swamp. And if I remember correctly, there were six people appearing in the mural altogether."
”
"So that's why you reacted like that just now" I looked at her and said.
"You're being too paranoid, Hong Jie. Don't you remember what the three older brothers said back then Huang Bai's face can cause hallucinations just by smelling it. None of that was real. Besides, there are only three of us now. You're saying you saw six people in the mural."

I looked around at the silent and still surroundings and said, "Could it be that the other three people are right here with us, but we can't see them"
"Are you kidding me"
