Just now, when Yu Xiao and the others saw those people hiding behind the bushes, curiosity got the better of them, and they moved closer.
Then they heard them muttering under their breath, "Just a little more, just a little more..."
They looked ahead.
They saw a little deer walking toward them, its head lowered as it nibbled at something along the way.
