C24 It Was All Coincidence

Murong Jiu looked at the lizard calmly. She took out the small knife she used to cut wood last time from her pocket. When the lizard was about to touch her toes, she quickly dodged to the side. Her movements were neat and decisive, and she stabbed into the lizard's head.

Murong Jiu's actions shocked them. After all, they were facing the lizard and could not dodge it. Murong Jiu took the lead and acted first.

They were truly stunned.

Not only were they stunned, but the lizard also did not expect that it would be killed by a woman like this.

The lizard twitched for a while, and then it quickly quieted down.

Murong Jiu looked at the lizard's death and calmly took out a piece of paper from another pocket. Then, with a solemn expression, she pulled out the small knife and wiped it. Her actions were like that of a noble royal family, noble and elegant, making people happy to look at.

Her phoenix-like eyes swept across the petrified crowd. She blinked her eyes and asked, "What happened to you? Why are you looking at me with fear? Is there something on my face?"

The warm wind blew past. Zhao Chen and the others felt that the scene was so cold, as if a cold wind had blown past.

Chen Sisi was the first to speak. Her soft voice trembled, "Miss... Miss Su, is it dead?"

Murong Jiu smiled gently, "That's right, I killed it."

"What is there to be afraid of? It's just a lizard. You don't have to be afraid. Just treat it as a small animal."

Murong Jiu spoke in a carefree manner, and she didn't seem to be afraid at all. She even smiled.

Her smile was so scary. Mother, she was so scary. Everyone looked at her in fear and trembled.

"What happened to you? Are you so scared by a big lizard?" Murong Jiu raised her eyebrows.

"There's really no need to be afraid. Look at me? Didn't I just take care of him in a short while?"

"No, no, no. This is the first time we have seen Miss Su so brave. We were all stunned."

"That's good. You can relax now. You won't fall into its stomach." Murong Jiu pretended not to understand their meaning and nodded with satisfaction.

When everyone heard Murong Jiu's words, they suddenly remembered that if it wasn't for Miss Su Le, they would probably have died here.

The fear in their hearts had been diluted a lot, and what remained was gratitude towards Murong Jiu.

"Hahahaha, Miss Su Le, thank you so much. You are really a woman who doesn't let men win." Everyone flattered Murong Jiu.

Ann Ya's eyes had long become unfocused, and her pupils gradually focused. She looked at Murong Jiu who was surrounded by a group of people with an indescribable expression. She clenched her nails into her palms, leaving traces of blood on her tender flesh. It made this woman gain more attention. It really made her unhappy.

She didn't even think about it. If it wasn't for Murong Jiu, she might have been bitten by the lizard a long time ago. How could she be so relaxed to look down on Murong Jiu now?

The crowd's compliments did not make Murong Jiu become arrogant. Her eyes were indifferent, but she shot a look at the regretful Zhao Chen, "Mr. Zhao, you should know why that lizard suddenly rushed towards me?"

Zhao Chen was furious that Murong Jiu had such a skill and didn't give him any chance at all. He felt a sharp gaze on him, and his heart jumped. He suddenly raised his head to look at her. She knew!

He subconsciously dodged Murong Jiu's gaze, but he remembered that he had never told anyone about it. It was impossible for Murong Jiu to know. What was he worried about? He steadied his mind and looked at Murong Jiu with an expression of complete ignorance.

Murong Jiu turned her head and revealed her charming smile to the crowd. She was not in a hurry. She would take care of him slowly in the future.

After all, there was still time in the future. Moreover, he had a weakness in his hands now. So, Murong Jiu didn't think too much about it. Instead, she turned her attention to another matter.

"Then how should we deal with this big lizard?"

"Throw it here. Don't tell me you really want to eat the lizard meat? Aren't you afraid of getting sick from eating it?"

"That's true. Hahahahaha."

"Then throw it here. After all, we are still very kind. And now is not the right time to eat meat." After Murong Jiu finished speaking, she actually laughed again, scaring everyone. They were afraid that Murong Jiu would get excited again and let everyone eat the lizard meat together.

Especially when Ann Ya, who had just woken up, looked at the dead lizard, she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

Therefore, when Ann Ya saw Murong Jiu, she quickly suggested another idea, "Since we have already come this far and met the lizard, let's play another game. Let's play hide-and-seek."

"As long as we are the first to be discovered, then we must say the truth. How about it?"

Ann Ya's suggestion was rejected by a large number of people. They all wanted to rest. After all, they were already very tired after experiencing the lizard. Moreover, they were also a little scared.

Especially when they played this kind of game, what if some animals appeared while they were hiding? What if they were injured again? What would they do then?

Therefore, a few people immediately voiced out their objections. However, they swallowed their words before they could finish their words. They could only nod helplessly.

Ann Ya nodded in satisfaction when she saw this. However, Ann Ya saw that Murong Jiu did not nod. She was afraid that Murong Jiu would not play, so she asked Murong Jiu specifically. After all, if Murong Jiu did not play, then the game would be meaningless. "Murong Jiu, do you want to play? I think you don't dare to play like that."

After Ann Ya asked, she did not forget to provoke Murong Jiu.

When Murong Jiu saw Ann Ya like this, he knew that something was wrong. However, since no one objected, wouldn't it make him seem too timid if he objected?

Of course, Murong Jiu would not do that, so she decisively said, "Let's play, isn't it just playing games?"

Seeing Murong Jiu agree, Ann Ya was so happy that she wanted to jump up.

"Alright, since no one has any objections, then let's play."

Let me explain the rules first. Since everyone wants to play, then let's draw lots to see who will catch and hide the person.

Ann Ya immediately grabbed a pile of branches from the ground and let them draw the lot.

The moment she grabbed the branches, Ann Ya moved her hands and placed the short branches on the side facing Chen Sisi, while the side facing Murong Jiu and herself were long branches.

The result was exactly the same as Ann Ya had expected. Ann Ya, Murong Jiu, and the others were all hiding people, only Murong Jiu was the one who caught the person.

After the lot was drawn, Ann Ya did not say any nonsense. But before the beginning, Ann Ya pulled Chen Sisi to the side and whispered a few words to her, then she started.

After the beginning, everyone found a place to hide. Murong Jiu was also preparing to find a place to hide.
