Chapter 107: The missing dumb

<!--The beginning of the chapter content--> I don't know how I walked back. I followed Li Yuantai exhaustedly, my eyes lost and my legs floating.
Li Yuantai also said nothing.
I know that his heart is also very heavy.
It was finally confirmed that we were in the empty valley in the illusion, and my nerves were in a state of high tension.
As I walked, I looked vigilantly at the bushes and groves by the creek. I always felt that something terrible would jump out of the shadows where the sun could not reach. Could it be a ghost or a vine tree monster?
Maybe it's neither. I have seen the bleeding boulders in the illusion.
So next, it should be a smiling skull.
When we walked back to the stream where our friends were resting, Gao Peng and Celluloid were still fighting, but they didn't see Dumb.
I suddenly had an ominous hunch.
"You guys don't play! What about dumb? Why are the others missing?" I took a few steps, rushed to Li Yuantai, and ran to the stream, shouting at Gao Peng and Celluloid.
Maybe I looked too nervous, and they stopped immediately.
Gao Peng wiped the splash from his face and stammered, "We were playing just now. Dumb said it was too boring. He went to explore the way by himself."
"He goes to find the way by himself! How can you let one person act?" I grabbed Gao Peng by the skirt of his clothes and asked sharply.
I've never been so fierce, and both of them were shocked.
Gao Peng explained, "We also persuaded him, saying that when you come back, everyone will act together, but he didn't listen, he had to go alone first, and promised to come back soon."
Celluloid was so nervous that he was a little incoherent, "What's the matter? Did something happen to Dumb?"
Li Yuantai asked, "How long has he gone?"
Gao Peng looked at his watch, "It's only half an hour, it shouldn't be far."
Li Yuantai patted me on the shoulder and comforted, "It's only half an hour. I shouldn't have walked far. Besides, Dumb has short legs and can't run fast, so I should be able to catch him soon."
I nodded nervously and turned to Gao Peng, "Which direction did he go?"
Gao Peng pointed to a small road leading to the depths of the valley, "I just walked along the road into the valley."
This is the road, yes, this is the road I walked in the illusion.
If you walk along this road, you will see the grassy hillside, you will see the sheep, you will see the weird shepherd sleeping in a gray robe...
I immediately realized what Dumb would see if he walked along this road.
"Do not!"
I screamed in pain, and Sayazi ran toward the depths of the valley, shouting as I ran.
DumbWhere are you
DumbYou come back soon
My trembling voice echoed in the valley, but no one answered me.
I feel more upset.
Could it be that Dumb has already met the monster with the skull head and had an accident?
The skull with a grinning grin shook before my eyes again.
I wiped off the cold sweat from my forehead, accelerated my pace and ran forward, still shouting while running.
But my voice was the only one echoing in the entire valley. The echoes of all the voices overlapped, making the birds and beasts flutter, and also making my legs weak.
Li Yuantai got up, several ups and downs were already ahead of me.
"how about it?"
I shook my head, leaning on a big tree by the roadside and panting, "Where are Gao Peng and Celluloid?"
"In the back, they should catch up soon. Or let's wait, we'd better go together, don't separate."
I nodded.
After a while, there were heavy footsteps, and within a short while, Gao Peng and Celluloid rushed over, panting.
"Luffy, what are you doing? You run so fast all at once. I didn't see that your lack of exercise can run fast. I'm really exhausted."
The celluloid hadn't arrived yet, so the complaints came first.
Gao Peng worried that we would fight again and persuaded, "He is worried about dumb, let's just say a few words."
Celluloid sat down on the stump on the side of the road, panting, "No, I'm dead, I have to rest, I can't run anymore."
Gao Peng glanced at me and smiled awkwardly, "I'm tired too, why don't you rest here for five minutes?"
"Why don't you rest here, Li Daxian and I will look forward again." I thought about the safety of Dumb, and I didn't want to stay longer for a minute, because we could rest for a minute, and Dumb might have one more minute. Danger.
Li Yuantai coughed twice, as if he was asking for my opinion, "Luffy, let's go together. In the wild, one dumb has disappeared. Two more are going to go away. It will be more troublesome to find."
I took a look at the celluloid, snorted coldly, and said to my heart, it's not because of this burden, I can't run, my voice is so loud, except for the quarrel, it's useless.
Had it not been for her, the three of us would have gone so far.
Celluloid saw that everyone was resting to take care of her, but I had to give in. I couldn't help feeling very good, and sat cross-legged on the tree stump and hummed.
Li Yuantai and Gao Peng were chatting together. I was really bored. I picked up my watch and looked at the time, hoping that five minutes would pass.
At this moment, the celluloid that had been humming suddenly stopped.
She stood up suddenly, her right finger pointed forward, her throat knotted and said, "That... isn't it dumb?"
As soon as she finished shouting, the three of us immediately stood behind her and looked in the direction she was pointing.
On the hillside in the distance, a small figure carrying a schoolbag was walking forward in the grass, his untidy yellow hair was blown like a chicken coop.
We are all familiar with that thin back figure, but who is it if it is not dumb?
The four of us circled our hands in the shape of a trumpet and shouted together.
Dumb—come back soon—
DumbDon’t run around anymore
Duan seemed to hear our shouts, stopped, turned around and waved at us.
He seemed to be shouting something, but the distance was too far, and we couldn't hear what he was shouting when we raised our ears.
We had to gesticulate vigorously to signal him to come back soon.
Dumb waved at us desperately, and then pointed towards the distance.
Following the direction he pointed, I saw what I least wished to see.
It was a mass of white things, and it was constantly moving forward.
I know that the white thing is a flock of sheep, because it is too far away. From a distance, the flock of sheep is just a white thing embedded in the grass, and it keeps moving forward because the flock of sheep is grazing and moving. Go ahead.
I opened my eyes and looked carefully, and I found a small gray spot on the side of the white thing.
Seeing the gray dot, I suddenly felt a dry throat and goose bumps.
That's right, the little gray dot is the weird man in gray robe with skull head.
