C1231 The Footprints Were Related to His Disappearance?
"A footprint?"
While Lu Feng was confused, he suddenly found a new problem.
These footprints should be a pair, but now they only found one footprint outside the cave.
"Why is there only one footprint?"
With doubt in his heart, Lu Feng tried to search around, but in the end, other than this footprint, there was no second footprint anywhere else.
"Is there a Heavenly Beast with a foot in this world?"
Because he couldn't find the second footprint, Lu Feng naturally began to guess in his heart.
"A foot's Heavenly Beast?"
When Qi Yan and the other two heard Lu Feng's guess, their brows were tightly knitted. Clearly, they had never heard of what the foot's Heavenly Beast was.
"Lu Feng, why do I feel a trace of coldness on my back? This Heavenly Beast Island seems to be much more terrifying than I imagined." Qi Yan looked around. Suddenly, an inexplicable panic emerged from the bottom of his heart.
In any case, a few people would go missing every time the Heavenly Beast Island opened. Although there weren't many of them, there were always people who went missing every time.
Now that these people had encountered such a strange thing, they naturally felt some panic deep in their hearts.
Even Lu Feng couldn't provide a reasonable explanation for this matter, let alone Qi Yan and the other two who lacked experience in the wild. It was very normal for them to be afraid and panic.
"What should we do? I suddenly feel a little scared."
After Qi Yan finished speaking, Lv Xue's body trembled slightly as she muttered.
"Don't be afraid. I am here."
When Zhu Tian, who was standing beside Lv Xue, heard this, he quickly gathered his courage and said.
Although Zhu Tian was also quite afraid in his heart, in order to not make Lv Xue afraid, he still bravely said what he had always wanted to say to Lv Xue.
"Alright, let's not talk anymore. Let's hurry up and leave this place." Listening to Qi Yan and the other two's words, Lu Feng said with a somewhat heavy expression.
After that, the group of four quickly left this place.
Although Lu Feng and the others felt a little depressed because of a strange footprint early in the morning, as time passed, the intense battle with the Heavenly Beast only lasted two to three hours. They had completely forgotten about what happened in the morning.
Just like that, after walking for another day in the Heavenly Beast Island, another night arrived.
This time, Lu Feng and the other three did not find a cave that they could hide in, so they could only find a three-sided wall to make do with it.
However, at night, the things that they had forgotten once again appeared in everyone's minds.
"Lu... Lu Feng, do you think we will be in danger tonight? Why don't we just summon the Battle Pet?" Qi Yan looked at the darkening sky and said in a trembling voice.
" Alright, Qi Yan. Then summon your Battle Pet. " Seeing Qi Yan and the other two's frightened faces, Lu Feng thought for a while and finally agreed.
No matter what, they didn't have a place to stay, so it was very easy for them to encounter danger during the night.
Compared to their lives, training wasn't that important, because they didn't even have their lives. No matter how strong they were, it was useless.
" Mhm!"
After getting Lu Feng's permission, Qi Yan hastily summoned his Battle Pet Stone Ape from his Animal Order.
When the Stone Ape appeared, Qi Yan immediately ordered it to stand guard in all directions.
Perhaps it was because of the Stone Ape's appearance, Qi Yan and the other two felt much safer.
Lu Feng saw that Qi Yan and the other two's expressions had eased up a little. He nodded and didn't say anything. After that, the four of them closed their eyes to rest.
With the stone ape around, Lu Feng and the other three naturally didn't need to stay overnight, because there was no need for that.
"* Hong! *"
However, when midnight arrived, a world-shaking roar suddenly sounded. It was a very loud sound, and it was very close to the source of the sound. So, the four who were resting with their eyes closed were awakened.
"What happened?"
The four people who had opened their eyes looked outside at almost the same time. At that moment, the Stone Ape was also on guard.
However, with the passing of time, peace returned to the outside. The Stone Ape did not feel any Heavenly Beast approaching.
And because it was midnight, Lu Feng and the others didn't go out to take a look.
However, the commotion just now was really strong. Therefore, no one had a good rest in the middle of the night. Their faces were full of worry.
"This is..."
When the first ray of sunlight appeared in the morning, Lu Feng and the other three hurriedly walked out. When they saw the same footprints that appeared yesterday morning less than 50 meters away from them, the four of them had ugly expressions on their faces.
"The big commotion last night should have been caused by this footprint, but the problem is that no Heavenly Beast came over last night." Lu Feng looked at the big footprint in front of him and fell into deep thought.
If the first time the big footprint appeared was an accident, then the second time was obviously not an accident.
Furthermore, the Stone Ape was present last night, so it had the most right to speak whether the Heavenly Beast had appeared or not.
However, if this was the case, then the question surfaced once again. Since this wasn't caused by the Heavenly Beast, then how did this footprint form?
"Lu Feng, why do I feel like this footprint seems to be targeting us?" Qi Yan took a deep breath and voiced out his thoughts.
Actually, Lu Feng had already formed this idea a long time ago, but he did not say it out loud.
However, since this footprint was following them, why did it follow them? There weren't any similar footprints on the first night, so why did they appear next?
"Everyone, be careful. From tonight onwards, everyone, summon the Battle Pet to prevent any accidents from happening." Lu Feng said to Qi Yan and the other two.
Now that they had encountered such a strange thing, the most important thing before they could figure out the origin of the footprint was to ensure their own safety.
"Got it!"
After hearing Lu Feng's words, Qi Yan and the other two nodded their heads repeatedly. In fact, they had already had such thoughts a long time ago. It was just that they had been holding it in and not saying it out loud.
Of course, now that Lu Feng had taken the initiative to summon the Battle Pet, it was obvious that this matter was so serious that he did not know about it.
Therefore, this made Qi Yan and the other two men even more afraid in the depths of their hearts.
"Lu Feng, do you think those missing people are related to this footprint?"
Just as the four of them were getting nervous, Zhu Tian couldn't help but say something.
"Missing? Footprint?"
The other three's expression changed again after Zhu Tian's reminder.
This disappearance was not a joke, because those missing people had yet to appear. It was obvious that the odds were against them.1
Furthermore, regarding the disappearance, it had been so many years, and there hadn't been a single clue. This was the strangest thing.
"Zhu Tian, can you stop talking nonsense? This is already scary enough. Now that you mention it, I want to go home now." Lv Xue complained to Zhu Tian.
"Zhu Tian, Lv Xue is right. Now is not the time to scare yourself." Qi Yan also spoke at this time.
However, only Lu Feng did not speak, because he did not mean what he said, but what he heard was thoughtful. When he heard what Zhu Tian said, he was indeed thinking about this problem.
"If this footprint really has something to do with the disappearance, then who is its target? Are the four of us still one of them? " Lu Feng muttered in his heart.
If it was the four of them, then no one would be able to escape. But if it was only one of them, then the other three would definitely be safe. At that time, as long as they separated, nothing would happen to them.
After all, once they disappeared, their lives would be over.
"Let's give it a try tonight. If the four of us are all targets, then even if we split up, there would definitely be more than one footprint." Lu Feng muttered in his heart.
Thinking of this, Lu Feng didn't think too much about it. He directly said what he thought in his heart, and then began to search for a suitable place to stay with the other three.
Because they needed to find two places at the same time, and the distance couldn't be too far. Otherwise, if they really encountered some Heavenly Beast, they wouldn't be able to save them in time.
Therefore, the requirements were more stringent, and it would be very difficult to find one.
Thus, after searching for an entire day, Lu Feng and the other three barely managed to find two places that met the requirements.
These two places were less than a kilometer apart, and they were neither close nor far from each other. It was suitable to test them out.
"Qi Yan, which one of you will come with me? You can divide it among yourselves." After finding a suitable place, Lu Feng said.
Regarding who would follow him, Lu Feng didn't mind at all. Therefore, the arrangement would be Qi Yan and the other two's business.
"Lu Feng, I'll go with you."
Qi Yan glanced at Zhu Tian and Lv Xue, then he took the initiative to speak.
"Qi Yan, I want to go with you. I'm afraid." When Lv Xue saw that Qi Yan wanted to go with Lu Feng, she mustered up her courage and said.
"Lv Xue, with me here, you don't need to be afraid. I can protect you."
Zhu Tian saw that Qi Yan had given him such a good opportunity, so he naturally had to fight for it.
"You protect me? Your strength is about the same as mine. When the time comes, you will be in danger. It's still uncertain who will save you. Zhu Tian, you should team up with Lu Feng. He is very strong. Even if he is in danger, he can still protect you. " Lv Xue suggested.
Lv Xue naturally did not want to miss the opportunity to be alone with Qi Yan.
"Lv Xue, you should stay with Zhu Tian. It's decided then."
However, facing Lv Xue, Qi Yan let out a light breath and still didn't change his mind.
Qi Yan understood Lv Xue's intentions in his heart. However, he still had a heart demon in his heart, so he was naturally afraid that a love triangle would happen again.
Especially since Qi Yan knew that Zhu Tian also liked Lv Xue, so he could not let history repeat itself.
He had already lost two good friends previously, so he did not want to lose two good friends again because of the same thing.
"Qi Yan, you..."
Lv Xue saw that Qi Yan refused to stay with her directly. Her face was slightly pale. Obviously, the feeling of being rejected was very unpleasant.
