Jiang Nuo stood face to face with him, grinned, and threw a punch.
This action caught everyone off guard. Da Qiang was practically being grabbed and beaten by him, his muscular arms offering no resistance whatsoever.
He couldn't even shake off Jiang Nuo's hand!
Da Qiang was horrified; where did this man get all that strength?!
"Aww!"
Da Qiang took another punch to the eye, realizing that the harder he struggled, the harder he would be beaten, so he dared not struggle anymore.
He lay sprawled on the ground like a plucked chick.
Seeing that Da Qiang had finally calmed down, Jiang Nuo grabbed him by the back of his neck and dragged him to where everyone was standing there dumbfounded.
Huffing and puffing.
He was panting, and looked quite tired.
Si Yan came over and lent a hand.
Everyone: "..."
What's this for?
Zhou Ling and Qian Sen turned to look at the tour guide of Team Yellow, then glanced at Jiang Nuo, as if asking a question.
Jiang Nuo chuckled, "Just arresting one of the guides is enough."
Da Huang gasped and took off running.
"Take us to the tribe." Jiang Nuo patted Da Qiang's face, which had turned purple from the beating, "Or I'll throw you into the attic for those bastards to eat."
His words were clearly very intimidating. Da Qiang trembled all over and nodded frantically in a muffled voice, completely losing his previous arrogance.
" Jiang Nuo, it's getting dark."
Lin Yu, supporting Su Hen, reminded her, "The rules state that we can't continue visiting after dark."
"Furthermore, Su Hen's current condition is not suitable for continuing the tour."
Lin Yu is very understanding.
They spent a lot of time in the attic, and when they came out, the sky was already as dark as ink.
"Oh right." Jiang Nuo looked up at the sky.
The moon is bright, the stars are shining, perfect for a long nap.
"Then... should we go back and rest first?"
He grabbed Da Qiang again and asked, but the latter didn't dare to say anything to refuse; his mind was practically a complete mess.
Team Leader Huang was confused and didn't know where to go. After getting Si Yan's tacit approval, Qian Sen took it upon himself to bring the three of them back to the guide's cabin.
--
The live broadcast was interrupted at night.
Jiang Nuo tied Da Qiang to the bed with hemp rope and forced him to "fall asleep".
After finishing everything, Jiang Nuo yawned, quickly washed up, and then snuggled into bed with Si Yan in her arms.
He was fast asleep, but Si Yan couldn't fall asleep.
Hugging Jiang Nuo and snuggling closer, Si Yan tried to fall asleep again but failed. For some reason, after the illusion, he always felt a burning sensation in his chest, which made him feel uncomfortable.
They started thinking about how to uncover the secrets behind the Bone Witch Tribe.
What is now certain is that the rules do not need to be followed entirely, and the guide's every move is sending them to their deaths. On the contrary, the tribespeople, whom they have not yet confronted directly... are unclear in their good and evil.
But gods, everything is related to so-called gods.
"The moon shines on the third boulder..."
Don't believe what he says.
Si Yan recalled the old woman's and the deity's words again, but still couldn't understand them.
However, it is related to the rules and regulations.
The old woman said, "In the woods, don't believe what you say, and don't believe that flower either. The ninth rule is not to smell fragrant flowers."
But along their journey, they encountered many boulders and forests, yet they never saw a flower.
"It's so noisy."
Jiang Nuo's lazy voice rang in his ears. Si Yan looked down at him and met his eyes.
Thinking he was being criticized for being noisy, Si Yan immediately shut up and curled her lips.
"Staying up late at night and thinking too much will cause your hair to fall out."
Jiang Nuo chuckled and ruffled Si Yan's hair, snuggling lazily into his arms. "I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about what's outside the window."
Si Yan listened intently, her eyebrows twitching slightly. "The tribespeople are singing again."
Jiang Nuo grunted, then closed her eyes again, her voice slightly breathy, "Do you think all the tribespeople are bad people?"
Both of them had witnessed their tribesmen kidnapping tourists.
"Let's sneak over and take a look," Jiang Nuo suggested.
"No, Nuonuo, go to sleep."
Si Yan refused, covering Jiang Nuo's ears, pulling the blanket up over her, and holding her tightly. "We'll talk about it tomorrow morning."
"We might miss a clue..."
Jiang Nuo was almost delirious with sleep, but he was still trying to think.
"That doesn't matter." Si Yan kissed Jiang Nuo's lips, his tone tender, "Sleep well Nuonuo."
"Hmm..."
Jiang Nuo also gave up the idea of going out in the middle of the night. She waved her hand, the window closed tightly, and the singing stopped.
--
Two hours later.
Si Yan sat half-reclined on the headboard, looking at Jiang Nuo who had stood up with a puzzled and bewildered expression.
He waved his hand in front of Jiang Nuo to confirm that his eyes were indeed open, but lifeless.
Si Yan was even more bewildered.
Nuonuo... is this sleepwalking?
" Si Yan! Get up quickly."
Jiang Nuo patted Si Yan on the shoulder, "Let's go on a night raid on the Bone Witch Tribe!"
Si Yan, whose face was slapped. "..."
He held Jiang Nuo's disoriented hand and coaxed her softly, " Nuonuo, we'll talk about it tomorrow..."
"Tomorrow will be too late! Dungeon time waits for no one!"
Jiang Nuo suddenly perked up, excitedly hugging Si Yan's neck and nuzzling him, "We can only get a good night's sleep after we finish the dungeon, let's go and come back quickly!"
Si Yan frowned slightly as she caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar word.
What does "copy" mean?
Does Nuonuo treat live-streamed variety shows like a game?
" Nuonuo, no..."
"Oh dear, let's go--"
When Jiang Nuo saw that he wouldn't agree, she raised her voice and started whining and rolling around on the ground.
"Okay, okay, we'll go. Keep your voice down."
Si Yan quickly covered his mouth, but found Jiang Nuo so adorable that he couldn't hide the doting look in his eyes.
"Keep your voice down..." Jiang Nuo whispered, making a walking gesture with two fingers, her peach blossom eyes shimmering. "Let's jump out the window."
Jiang Nuo pried open the window.
There was a person standing outside the window.
"Oh my god."
Jiang Nuo was startled by the person standing outside the window and jumped into Si Yan's arms.
"Someone's there Si Yan! We've been spotted!"
Si Yan met A Man's eyes, became wary, and took a half step back while holding Jiang Nuo.
What are you doing here?
A Man looked at Jiang Nuo strangely, feeling that this person seemed different from during the day.
Si Yan's eyes turned cold, and he pulled Jiang Nuo closer to him. "Speak."
"Just to remind you."
A Man withdrew her probing gaze and continued speaking in broken Mandarin, "Tomorrow, the clan will be open to visitors, but the Nuo goddesses are already preparing to select offerings."
"By sacrificing human flesh to the gods, we ensure that the unique abilities bestowed upon our people are given back to them."
"Wow! That's a great statement!"
Jiang Nuo peeked out from behind the Si Yan, her hair a mess, "That damned wooden god said the same thing today!"
He rolled up his sleeves. "Then I'll have to see what kind of ability they have!"
" Nuonuo, be a good girl."
Si Yan pulled the person back, feeling that A Man was being a little too kind.
We've only known each other for less than half a day.
So, where do you think we should go tomorrow?
Si Yan asked him.
A Man lowered his head and thought for a moment, his dark skin almost blending into the night. "Go to the dense forest."
Si Yan's voice was icy. "Those who are not of my clan are not allowed to approach the dense forest. Those who violate this rule will bear the consequences themselves."
"These are the rules established by your Bone Witch Tribe."
