14. Stay home if the morning glows.
Upon hearing Yamamoto Ichiro's words, Qin Mian almost cursed inwardly.
damn it.
This little cherry blossom is definitely not a good person. She seems to be speaking up for him, but in reality, she is reminding others that Qin Mian may be lying.
Sure enough, after his reminder, the others also seemed to think Qin Mian was lying, and probably already labeled him a 'ghost'.
Netizens on Daxia couldn't stand it anymore.
[Damn it, that little cherry blossom is so wicked! She's trying to shift the blame and make everyone suspect Qin Mian.]
As expected, those cherry blossom girls are all naughty.
[Haha, let me ask you, who dares to underestimate the university students of my Great Xia? They're definitely number one!]
[Keep it up, Qin Mian! Maintain this momentum and bring honor to all college students!]
……
Qin Mian did not immediately become furious, but pretended not to understand the hidden meaning in Yamamoto Ichiro's words.
He chuckled憨厚ly, "Huh? Isn't that a lot? All of us combined already make up 90%. If I add up to a little more, wouldn't that directly prove that the other two people who haven't appeared are the ghosts?"
To be honest, being fat has its advantages.
Qin Mian's simple and honest smile certainly makes it easy for him to win people's favor.
Alice nodded. "Yes, although the other two haven't appeared yet, I think they're definitely not ghosts. And since they haven't appeared yet and have their own storylines, their contributions should be significant."
"Hmph, Yamamoto Ichiro, your words are malicious. You're just trying to make us suspect Qin Mian. I bet you're the one who's the devil, aren't you? Don't pretend to be innocent with me. Everyone knows you're a ninja." Andreev suddenly looked at Yamamoto Ichiro.
Yamamoto Ichiro shrugged, feigning confusion. "I just think it's too little, but now that you mention it, there's some truth to it."
Park Guk-chang, standing nearby, sneered and flopped down on the floor to sleep. He scoffed, "Heh, if you ask me, discussing this is completely pointless. Who can guarantee that everyone is telling the truth? Continuing to discuss this won't uncover who's the culprit; instead, it'll only make our already disunited team even more anxious. Instead of wasting time, we'd better get some rest!"
No one refuted his words, and for a moment, the entire camp fell silent; no one spoke again.
Qin Mian breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect that Park Guk-chang wouldn't take this opportunity to make things difficult for him.
The night passed peacefully, and the next day, as soon as the first light of dawn appeared, the group got up and continued their journey.
They walked until the sun rose in the morning, when they stopped to eat something and rest.
At this moment, the east is ablaze with red clouds, and the distant desert seems to have been dyed red as well, blending with the horizon.
The scene was truly magnificent and beautiful.
Scarlett gazed into the distance and exclaimed, "Such a beautiful view, truly magnificent!"
Alice smiled and said, "This is the beauty of nature, and that's why I love outdoor sports. Only in this way can you truly experience the magnificence of nature."
Scarlett said enviously, "I really envy you, being able to be so free."
Alice laughed and said, "Big star, I should be envious of you, being the center of attention."
"Sigh..." Scarlett sighed, "You only see my glamorous exterior, but in reality, I'm just a caged bird..."
They were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere wasn't tense at all.
This gave netizens a misconception.
[Is this a three-star difficulty dungeon? It's way too easy! I feel like I could do it too.]
[Has the God of Dungeons lost his mind? Did he get the difficulty level wrong? This is supposed to be one-star difficulty, right?]
[You're overthinking it. It's only the second day. The real danger is probably yet to come. But it's for the best; the longer they hold out, the fewer people will die.]
[Sigh, the Mechanical Frenzy dungeon next door, a two-star instance, has already killed over a hundred thousand people. That's a real meat grinder.]
……
Everyone else was eating and resting, but Ah Ku Ku stared into the distance with a very serious expression, muttering to himself, and it was unclear what he was saying.
Qin Mian looked at the distant sky ablaze with red clouds and stood up as well, his face extremely grim.
"We need to get going!" Qin Mian said.
Alice looked over. "Qin, did you find something?"
Qin Mian nodded. "In our Great Xia, there's a saying: 'Red sky at morning, sailors take warning; red sky at night, sailors' delight.'"
"What do you mean?" Scarlett asked.
Qin Mian said, "If a rosy dawn appears, it means the weather today might become very extreme. This is a desert, and if I'm not mistaken, there's a high chance of a sandstorm!"
"Heh, kid, are you kidding me? The weather's so nice, and you're telling me a sandstorm's coming?" Park Guk-chang sneered.
Qin Mian turned to look at him, not angry at all, and said with a smile, "If you don't believe me, then you can stay here and rest. If you come with me, you're my grandson—no, I don't have a grandson like you. If you leave, you're a dog!"
Upon hearing this, Park Guk-chang narrowed his eyes.
"Kid, are you looking for death?"
"Idiot!"
Just then, Aku suddenly started packing his things and ran forward. "He's right, a storm is coming! Quick, find a place to shelter from the wind..."
In the time it took to speak, Ah Ku Ku had already run more than ten meters away.
Qin Mian didn't waste any words with the others, and almost just like A-Ku-Ku, he took off running.
Everyone else was stunned.
They might not believe Qin Mian's words, but Akuku is an expert in this field. If he says a storm is coming, then a storm might really be coming.
Andreev reacted quickly, grabbing his backpack and following after them.
Alice tugged at Scarlett's sleeve, her face grave. "Let's go!"
Even Kia hurriedly got up from the ground and followed.
"Damn it, a bunch of idiots, how could they believe... Yamamoto..." He wanted to say something to Yamamoto Ichiro next to him, but when he turned his head, he found that Yamamoto Ichiro was already gone.
He was the only one left.
"Damn it..."
Park Guk-chang cursed angrily, gritted his teeth, and hurriedly followed after the crowd who had already run more than a hundred meters away.
call……
Just then, a trade wind swept in, and Park Guk-chang noticed that the magnificent sunrise on the distant horizon was being swallowed and covered by a rapidly spreading, hazy yellow color at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if a clean canvas had been splashed with dirty mud.
Further away, where the sky meets the earth, a colossal dark wall connecting the heavens and the sea of sand is clearly visible!
Like a mythical beast that devours light, it rumbles closer with overwhelming power to crush everything!
The light in the sky was dimming rapidly, as if the daytime had been prematurely drawn back to its twilight.
"Damn it, this kid guessed right again!"
Park Guk-chang dared not delay any longer and took off running, chasing after him with all his might.
At this moment, he truly looked at Qin Mian with new respect.
