Chapter 122 Hard to Choose
The three forks in the road continued to make horrifying noises, and everyone's hearts were beating rapidly. The beating sound was like a drum on the battlefield, and each beat foreshadowed unknown dangers and difficult choices.
Ruan Jianan's eyes quickly swept over everyone, his Adam's apple rolling up and down, and he spoke with difficulty: "We don't have time, we must decide immediately!" His voice was hoarse and urgent, and his eyes were full of anxiety and urgency. His fingers kept shaking, as if telling of his inner fear and anxiety.
Lin Yanan covered her ears with her hands, tears streaming down her face. "I really don't know what to do. I'm so scared." Her body was shaking violently, like a leaf falling in the autumn wind. Her eyes were filled with helplessness and despair, tears blurred her vision, making it almost impossible for her to see the person in front of her.
Cheng Feng's body was shaking like a sieve, but his eyes were full of determination: "No matter what, choose the left side!" His voice was filled with a determination to fight to the death, but his shaking legs betrayed his inner fear. He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms.
Qin Hao immediately retorted: "No, the smell on the left is too weird, maybe it's poisonous." His brows were furrowed, his eyes were full of worry. His nostrils twitched slightly, as if trying to distinguish the danger hidden in the pungent smell.
The stranger frowned, his eyes wandering between three roads. His lips were tightly pursed, and the sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks. His fingers unconsciously rubbed the corners of his clothes, showing his inner struggle.
The mysterious man folded his arms across his chest, said nothing, and just watched them argue quietly. His eyes were deep and mysterious, making it impossible to guess his thoughts. His figure seemed particularly tall in the dim light, but gave people an indescribable sense of alienation.
At this moment, the roar of the middle fork became more fierce, and a strong airflow gushed out from it. The airflow swept in like a strong wind, bringing with it cold and unknown fear.
Everyone was blown all over the place by the airflow. Lin Yanan screamed and was almost blown to the ground. Ruan Jianan quickly reached out to hold her, but he was also pushed back a few steps by the airflow.
Cheng Feng tried hard to stand firm: "I definitely can't walk here!"
Qin Hao struggled to steady himself: "But the left and right sides may not be safe either!"
The strange man squinted his eyes because of the wind, "But we can't stay here forever!"
Ruan Jianan shouted loudly: "We can't delay any longer!" His voice seemed so small in the strong wind, but it was full of determination.
Lin Yanan sobbed: "I'll listen to you, as long as I can get out alive."
Cheng Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Then how about the right side?"
Qin Hao shook his head: "The strange sound on the right is getting closer and closer, it feels like something is approaching rapidly."
The strange man gasped: "Maybe we should trust the mysterious man. He might know something."
Everyone's eyes turned to the mysterious man.
The mysterious man raised his head slightly, glanced at everyone, and slowly said: "Each of these three paths is full of unknowns. Choosing any one of them requires courage and luck."
Everyone's heart sank again.
Time is passing by every second, and danger is approaching step by step.
Just when everyone was in despair, Ruan Jianan suddenly seemed to have made up his mind: "No matter what, let's go to the right! Instead of hesitating here, why not take a gamble!"
Everyone was stunned. Lin Yanan's eyes widened. She wanted to say something but swallowed it back. Cheng Feng gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.
Qin Hao wanted to say something, but when he saw Ruan Jianan's determined eyes, he no longer objected.
The strange man took a deep breath and said, "Well, now that we have made the decision, we can only fight for it."
The mysterious man nodded slightly, seemingly unsure of their decision.
With trepidation, everyone slowly walked towards the fork in the road on the right. Every step was filled with fear and uncertainty, and the sound of heartbeats and heavy breathing intertwined.
However, just a few steps into the right fork, the front suddenly became pitch black and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
