paired with a pure black skull, creating a rather eerie style.A mole frowned and said: “When I was providing logistics for a gang from Chengde in my younger years, I saw something similar. However, i...Don't be coy, what ghost or not.

I don't know, let's go take a look. Let's get away from here first and then talk. Watch your step.
Hongjie finished speaking and walked forward directly.
It's strange, there wasn't a lot of standing water on the ground, but I don't know why the road surface is so muddy.
"Help... help me, I don't have the strength," An researcher couldn't pull his foot out after only a few steps.
"Hold my hand."
"
I yanked her away from the spot with all my might.
Just follow me, look at my footprints and walk. Don't step off the path.

"Well, I understand."

The road conditions are getting worse, and I've noticed that the mud, which only reached my ankles a few minutes ago, is now up to my calves.
It's like what you fear comes to pass, I was just worried about this kind of situation happening. Now there's nothing we can do. If we stay here, those people will definitely come after us again. We have no choice but to grit our teeth and move forward, hoping to get out of this muddy swamp as soon as possible.
Suddenly! A cry of alarm from Red Sister came from the front!
"Yun Feng!" she screamed desperately.
I saw Hong Jie step on the wrong spot with one foot, and her whole body was sinking rapidly!
"Hurry! Help!"
I was shocked and hurriedly called Professor An to come over with me to help Red Sister.
You can’t say that people lose their composure when they panic. If I hadn’t come, it would have been fine. But I rushed over in a fluster and not only failed to save Red Sister, but also got myself trapped.
We held hands, three of us, sinking together. The mud quickly reached our thighs.
Hong Jie was sweating profusely with nervousness. She shouted loudly, "Don't move! Don't struggle!"
However, this only temporarily slowed the sinking speed. Visually, we can still see ourselves sinking a little bit.
"Hurry! Hurry and think of something!" Researcher An was terrified.
Stay calm, stay calm. As the only male among us three, I forced myself to remain composed because I knew very well that if we panicked, we were doomed. Beads of sweat rolled down my forehead as I nervously looked around, desperately searching for a solution.
I tried to lie back, while I relaxed my thighs and stopped struggling. I tried to adjust myself so that my center of gravity shifted from falling down to lying back.
I soon found that it worked, my lower body no longer sinking.
I shouted at her, "Point your toes! Lie back!"
Hong Jie and Researcher An immediately learned my method and started trying to shift their center of gravity.
This way, we increase the surface area of contact between our bodies and the mud, but it still doesn't allow us to escape. We can only stay half-submerged like this.
At this time, it would be great to have something like a tree root or a piece of driftwood nearby. If we had something like that, we could use it to help us escape.
Unfortunately, there wasn't. Afterward, it remained like that for almost two hours. None of us dared to move. If we did, we would sink down. We held this position until we were utterly exhausted.
Hong Jie said weakly in a dejected tone: "Yun Feng, there's no way out, it seems we're all going to die here."
"
"
"No, no, no, there's definitely a way, we can still find a way," I tried my best to persuade Red Sister not to give up. the 1940s, this amount of money was astronomical. Ordinary people couldn't save up that much money in several lifetimes. This was big money, and I feel like I'm even exaggerating the price.Hong Jie...
