Speaking of this, Shao Qing couldn’t help but wonder: “Why does he want to irritate me? Does it benefit him to irritate me? I can’t figure it out.”
Yan Qiyue also frowned, trying to analyze it: “Is it possible that he wants to irritate you so you miss some of the details? If so, this base must be hiding secrets.”
“According to what you said.” Shao Qing thought for a while and continued, “Could it be …… that forest?”
Both of them remembered the forest and Guan Haishan’s very different attitude when speaking about it.
“My intuition tells me that this matter is not simple.” Shao Qing thought carefully for a long time and then said: “After Er Dai returns, ask him if he found anything. If there is nothing else, we must go make a trip to the forest. Even if there is a trap, we still have to go in.”
“How does that phrase go? The most dangerous place is also the safest place. It is likely that they also think so too.” Shao Qing paced back and forth: “I still think that what we are looking for is in that forest. Guan Haishan is not stupid, he also knows that we are not stupid. If this is not a trap, then it would be the best. If this is a trap, then he must also use real bait to catch us, so no matter what, we have to check that forest.”
Yan Qiyue nodded, he understood Shao Qing’s thoughts very well. This mentality is called invincible. Any conspiracies and tricks in front of absolute strength, were like clouds and would just float away. So Shao Qing was not afraid of any traps or conspiracies.
But Yan Qiyue was afraid. He was not afraid of death. Even with death, he was indifferent otherwise he wouldn’t neglect his body so much. But he was afraid that Shao Qing …
Even if she was just injured, he didn’t want it to happen to Shao Qing.
In the evening, they went out to have a meal with Guan Haishan again. Guan Haishan was much more normal this time and did not deliberately irritate Shao Qing and Yan Qiyue.
By the time they went back, Er Dai had already returned. When he spoke to Shao Qing, Shao Qing almost wanted to rush out and burn the whole base down.
It was only with Yan Qiyue and Er Dai holding her down that stopped her.
This time Er Dai sneaked into two places guarded heavily by soldiers. The former was a grain depot and the latter was also a grain depot.
However, the latter’s grain depot was only used by Guan Haishan alone. Inside, it was filled with people, young girls and children.
Listening to the person in charge speak, it seemed that blood was taken from the girls every day, and supplied to Guan Haishan.
However, in order to not have to catch girls frequently, they wouldn’t kill these girls. They will only take enough blood to reach the limit of the girl’s body every time. Then they would slowly raise them and extract blood again.
In fact, because Guan Haishan liked virgin blood, those people dare not touch those girls.
But the children were pitiful. Apparently, Guan Haishan enjoyed eating children’s hearts. Of course, he would not waste the rest of the body. Thus the chef would cut the rest into strips of meat and dry it.
According to Guan Haishan, the children were tender and had a unique fragrance. After drying, the taste and texture was excellent.
“How could there be such a mad man in this world.” Shao Qing spat. Her hands were gripping the sheets until it was green.
If it was not to find the experimental base to save more people from suffering, if it was not to uncover the face of the mad demon’s and rid them of this tumor, she really wanted to rush out and kill Guan Haishan. To kill this base, everyone.
Guan Haishan was a beast, trash. All the people in the entire base were also evil doers aiding murderers!
“Ah Qing, don’t be impulsive.” Yan Qiyue hugged her: “Everything can wait until we explore the forest. Then, as long as we find the experimental base of the mad demons and get our evidence we can completely destroy the mad demon mercenary team. If you kill Guan Haishan now and kill the people in this base, only more people would suffer. It is not worth it!”
“I know. ” Shao Qing took a deep breath and said: “As soon as we enter the forest, Guan Haishan will find out that we are gone. So no matter what we should first contact Grandpa Qin. Even if something were to happen, at least the news would have made it back. Er Dai, this task will be left to you.”
Er Dai shook his head immediately, holding Shao Qing’s hand firmly. He couldn’t return to Jing Du by himself when Shao Qing was in danger.
“You have never shown up, so it is best for you to go back.” Shao Qing touched Er Dai’s head: “Don’t be so unruly okay?”
Er Dai didn’t speak, just grabbed onto Shao Qing for a long time. Then Yan Qiyue spoke up: “I’ll go back.”
He was calm. Even if he didn’t want to leave Shao Qing in such a dangerous situation, someone had to do it and Er Dai was more suitable to stay than him.
He could get injured, bleed, and could lose his fighting ability. If something happened, he would just drag Shao Qing down, but Er Dai wouldn’t.
Although Er Dai was slightly inferior in strength, he didn’t feel pain. He doesn’t get tired. He could recover quickly when he was injured. In terms of combat effectiveness, he was higher than Yan Qiyue.
Yan Qiyue knew that now was not the time to think with his emotions. In any case, the best candidate to stay was Er Dai.
Shao Qing patted his shoulder, and then joked: “The safety of us two is all up to you.”
Yan Qiyue stepped forward and hugged Shao Qing, then whispered: “If something happens to you, I will immediately end my life and accompany you. I trust Er Dai and the rest would also do that. So take care of yourself, otherwise it will be more than one death.”
Shao Qing’s eyes softened: “I know, so we will definitely come back safe.”
Then Yan Qiyue hugged Er Dai for the first time without any grudges: “I can’t stay with Shao Qing and face this danger with her, so it’s your mission to protect Ah Qing. I’ll leave it up to you, I believe in you. “
Yan Qiyue knew that when facing life-threatening danger, Er Dai would definitely stand in front of Shao Qing to protect her. Although they were love rivals, as love rivals, the better they understood each other.
Although Er Dai can’t speak, Yan Qiyue knew clearly what Er Dai wanted to express. As long as I live, Shao Qing will not be injured.
If someone wanted to hurt Shao Qing, then they would have to step over my body.
“Why are you guys acting as if we’ll be parting forever?” Shao Qing wanted to liven the atmosphere: “We are just going to the forest to check it out. Maybe by the time you bring someone over, we will have already brought Guan Haishan’s head back.”
“En.” Yan Qiyue went up to kiss Shao Qing: “I will go tonight.”
“Be careful along the way.” Shao Qing prepared some food for him, packed it, and secretly sent Yan Qiyue off.
The next day, Guan Haishan came over to find Shao Qing again. He knocked on the door, then after a long while did he hear Shao Qing speak: “I won’t go out today, my baby has chickenpox.”
Guan Haishan rolled his eyes and asked: “What kind of chickenpox? There are doctors in our base, let the doctors come and take a look.”
He didn’t believe it. A high-ranking superhuman who was fine yesterday suddenly had the chickenpox today. Who was she trying to lie to?
Shao Qing came over in pajamas and opened the door, then said regretfully: “Although I really want to go stroll around again, my baby is very uncomfortable. So it’s fine, a doctor is unnecessary. Just resting two days is enough.”
Guan Haishan extended his head to take a peek and saw a person lying on the bed inside. His back was to him, curled up into a ball, looking quite uncomfortable.
He immediately smiled and said, “Then I won’t disturb you. I will send someone over with lunch?”
Shao Qing nodded and shut the door on Guan Haishan mercilessly. Once Guan Haishan was gone, Er Dai who was within the blankets got up and took the lead to jump out the window.
Shao Qing packed some snacks, tore the space, and left the courtyard as if she was on a stroll.
On the other side, as soon as Guan Haishan left, he ordered the people under his own hands to carefully observe Shao Qing’s residence. No matter what happened, they had to inform him.
However, at this moment, Shao Qing was already outside the base. She was holding a dried sweet potato. After waiting for a while, she reunited with Er Dai and then the two went in the direction of the forest.
It is said that the forest is close to the mountain. There were rumours that no one came over here, but when Shao Qing and Er Dai entered the forest, they found that there was a road that was created by footsteps.
That is to say, people often took this path. Otherwise how could this path have been created? Didn’t a great writer say that there is no path that cannot be walked. As long as there are many people walking, it will naturally be made.
“Follow me.” Shao Qing took Er Dai and walked along that path. She could be sure that when Guan Haishan found out that they were no longer there, it would be around lunch time. So they had around four hours, enough for her to scan through the entire forest.
Especially like her and Er Dai who were fast, they would be zipping through the forest like fish in water.
Shao Qing jumped directly from one tree to another with Er Dai. Travelling in this manner was much faster than running on the ground.
While she jumped, she observed the traces on the ground. If there were people moving around, it must be people from Guan Haishan’s side.
As long as they reached the end of the road, they might find what they were looking for.
It took about two hours or so for them to enter the depths of the forest. The foliage above their heads had covered the sunlight densely and they had also reached the end of the road.
There were no traces further forward. But the places with traces showed nothing but a few trees.
“Did I guess wrong?” Shao Qing frowned, thinking carefully whether she had missed anything.
But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t think of anything. She walked back and forth and tried to think differently. If she wanted to build a base that she didn’t want anyone to know to conceal something, then where would she build it?
As far as this base is concerned, the safest place around was only this forest, but in this forest, there was clearly nothing …
Could it be … a flash of light appeared in Shao Qing’s mind. Underground? As soon as she considered this, she suddenly discovered that there must be some error. Guan Haishan was a smart man, why would he suddenly behave very differently on the topic of forests?
It seemed that he was deliberately guiding her to the forest. Shao Qing felt something was more and more wrong, then she finally realized that she seemed to have actually entered a trap!
A trap she fell into when she entered the base entrance!
Something false that appeared to be the truth and the truth becoming false, the most dangerous place was the safest place.
What a well schemed plan, Guan Haishan!
