Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me-Chapter 472 - : Enshrouded in Mystery

Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Enshrouded in Mystery

After all, he had accumulated a lot of experience venturing into the mountains over the years, but it seemed he had never really paid attention to all of this and didn’t know how it had happened.

Moreover, he was now leading so many people. If it turned out he had judged the direction incorrectly or taken the wrong path, then he would indeed become a sinner for eternity.

He started to feel conflicted inside, but, under the circumstances, he could no longer make any other choice.

They had come this far already; retreating was absolutely out of the question.

“Otherwise, shall we go back?”

It was Lin Yi who, at this moment, suggested beating a retreat.

Because of this silence, there was a growing sense of unease inside him.

“How can we go back? Didn’t the girl just say? Even her droppings are a precious herb. After this, we definitely won’t find another place like it, especially since we were lucky enough to come across such a treasure today. Do you understand?”

“Yes, I also feel it’s a stroke of luck, but we can’t take such a huge risk. Inside here, there’s something…”

For some reason, after he said this, he felt as if a chill was descending on him.

And that hair-raising sensation immediately enveloped his body.

“Forget it, I can’t worry about it too much now. Even if there are problems ahead, we must grit our teeth and push through, continue moving forward. Just now, it should have been in this direction, right?”

With that, he pointed ahead in a certain direction, at which Lin Yi hesitated for a moment.

Because he remembered clearly, when that creature charged into the jungle, it was so fast it just vanished from sight.

How could it be possible to determine its direction now?

“Hmm, you’re guessing, right?”

“I’m not guessing. Look at the sun above,” he said.

Speaking, he looked up at the sun which was hanging directly overhead.

And truly, the weather today was quite good, seemingly providing a great assurance for their jungle expedition.

“Yes, I see it now. What about it? Does it make any difference?”

“Let me tell you, the problem is right here.”

“Here? What does it have to do with it?”

“You didn’t know? Actually, all prey are supposed to be deep in sleep when the sun rises in the morning.”

“Ah, I know this from the books. Didn’t you tell me before? These animals are mostly nocturnal, and night is when they are most active.”

“Yes, and for this reason, when they choose their dens, they generally face away from the sun. So, I can now be pretty sure that it’s not in this direction, but rather behind us.”

“You mean, its cave is towards the east?”

“Right, it’s towards the east because the sun rises from the east, so, in that direction, there can be no sunlight whatsoever.”

“Well, with your analysis, it does seem to be the case. So, should we head east all the way and expect to find something?”

“Generally, that’s the idea, but we’ll have to make a specific judgment based on the actual situation. Okay, if there’s nothing else, everyone keep listening, and remember not to get too far apart from one another.”

The hunter still seemed a little uneasy, so he continued to give instructions before they set off.

A few people were essentially walking shoulder to shoulder as they slowly moved forward.

After they had walked for a while and looked back, they distinctly saw a white mist rising behind them.

Yet when they had come in, they had not seen anything of the sort. What could all this mean?

“Brother, what is that thing?”

He quickly nudged the hunter in front of him, who seemed not to have encountered anything like this before, so he hurriedly looked back.

His eyes just widened in astonishment and then he involuntarily took two steps back.

“My goodness, how did this thing appear again?”

“Oh, I remember now. Isn’t it the miasma we encountered when we first entered the mountain? You mean to say, this kind of miasma is actually poisonous, right?”

“No, this isn’t miasma. Look closer.”

“It isn’t miasma? Isn’t this precisely miasma?”

Lin Yi seemed somewhat confused; in his perception, this looked exactly like what he had seen upon entering the mountain.

Moreover, in his view, there was no significant difference.

Why, then, did it seem to have undergone such a drastic change to him?

“But from what I see, it does feel like miasma, doesn’t it?”

“No, it’s absolutely not miasma. Haven’t any of you noticed?”

He said this as he looked towards Hei Lang and Ling’er, who were standing aside.

“I feel like this fog is thicker than the ones before, and the color seems whiter too,” Ling’er observed.

Her attention to detail was better and, being a girl, her insight was often superior to that of the men.

“Exactly, you’re right. This is definitely not miasma; instead, it’s a kind of mist,” he said.

“Mist?”

“Yes, this kind of mist is actually quite common in the jungle. But under normal circumstances… well, I explain this now, you wouldn’t understand anyway. I can only tell you that the area covered by this mist is going to get larger and larger. Soon, we will all be lost in this expanse of jungle.”

“You’re saying it will make us lose our way, right?”

With that sentence, Lin Yi truly understood.

Good heavens, it was hard enough to find one’s way in this place, but if this mist came and disoriented them at this moment, then their troubles would become even more complicated.

“Indeed, it will make us get lost, including all the ways I mentioned before for discerning direction—they’ll all become useless, and we won’t be able to tell where we are headed anymore.”
