The group walked for another hour and the sun gradually rose. It was close to noon and the fog in the forest had indeed dissipated. Huangshan Mao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He had already seen a fork in the road not far away. As long as there was a road, they could leave the forest!
“Everyone, keep up! We can see the exit! We’ll be able to leave this dense forest soon!”
Huangshan Mao smiled and waved back. He had hidden his joy and excitement very well, as if everything was under his control, and the road ahead was within his expectations.
As he spoke, Huang Shan Mao lightly kicked the horse’s belly, causing the Black Spirit Ferghana horse to speed up slightly. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived at the fork in the road. The others followed behind and stopped the Black Spirit Ferghana horse at the intersection.
“Boss Huang, which direction should we go?”
Jin ziduo furrowed his brows and looked at Huangshan Mao,”There are three directions here. If I choose the wrong direction, it won’t be as simple as taking a detour. I reckon I’ll have to waste another one or two days before I can return to the right path.”
He also felt the increase in Lin Yi’s reputation. Compared to Lin Yi, Jin ziduo definitely hoped that Huangshan Mao could continue to be in charge, so he subconsciously wanted to remind him not to be careless.
Huangshan Mao slightly nodded and looked at the fork in the road,”There are three directions, but it’s only two. If I’m not wrong, this is the way to meteorite town. We can’t go back.”
“So we have to choose the other two roads. One of them is wider and has more footprints, so it should be a normal gallop road. The other road has fewer footprints and seems to be a temporary passage, so we will take the main road with more footprints!”
Huangshan Mao pointed in the direction he had chosen, full of confidence!
In fact, there were no roads in the forest. It was because there were many people walking that a path was created. After many years of walking, such a natural road was formed.
The experience of his predecessors should be the most logical route in the forest, so Huang shanmao believed that his choice would not be wrong!
The others didn’t have any objections. They didn’t know if it was a gallop, but there were obvious traces of a road in the dense forest, so it shouldn’t be a mistake to follow it.
Six didn’t want to object, but he stopped beside Lin Yi and asked,”Vice-captain Sima, what do you think? Boss Huang’s choice is right, isn’t it?”
The others looked at Lin Yi, “That’s right, vice-captain Sima, what do you think?”
“Vice-captain Sima, do you think there’s any problem?”
“Vice-captain Sima …”
Everyone was asking for Lin Yi’s opinion. It wasn’t that they were suspicious of Huang shanmao, but if they didn’t ask Lin Yi, it would seem like they were special. What if Lin Yi misunderstood and looked down on him?
Therefore, it was better to kill the wrong person than to let him go. Coupled with the herd mentality, it would seem like he was at a disadvantage if he didn’t ask!
Lin Yi didn’t reply, but Huang shanmao couldn’t take it anymore.
He had already made his decision, but these damn bastards were still asking Sima Zhong da what he meant? Are you looking down on me?
“Enough! All of you, shut up!”
Huangshan Mao shouted in a low voice, which really intimidated those team members, “Didn’t you hear what I just said? We’ll choose this path! Which one of you has something against me? Just stand out!”
Come out, I’ll cut you to death!
The people surrounding Lin Yi went silent. No matter how strong Lin Yi was, he was still a new member. He couldn’t be compared to Huang shanmao. After all this time, Huang shanmao had already erected the boss’s sign in their hearts. At this time, the old members would naturally choose to support Huang shanmao.
As such, naturally, no one would stomp their feet!
Huangshan Mao coldly swept his gaze around and snorted,”Remember, I’m the team leader. After I make a decision, I hope you can execute it well and not question me without listening to anything!”
“Now that I say we’ll take this path, we’ll take this path. There’s nothing more to say! Vice-captain Sima, do you think what I’m saying is reasonable?”
In the end, Huang shanmao even pointed at Lin Yi. He was indeed afraid of Lin Yi’s strength and didn’t want to fall out with him, but at this time, he had to show what he needed to show!
He thought that Lin Yi would take advantage of the situation, but Lin Yi didn’t appreciate it at all and shook his head, “I’m sorry, boss Huang, but I don’t agree with your choice. I think it’s more appropriate to take that path!”
Huangshan Mao’s face darkened-he felt that Lin Yi was challenging his authority as the captain!
“Vice-captain Sima, can you tell us the reason? After all, this was related to the safety and time of the entire team! We’re on a tight schedule right now, we can’t waste any more time!”
Huangshan Mao was afraid of Lin Yi’s strength, and while he wasn’t pleased, he suppressed his anger and tried to reason with Lin Yi,”The path I’ve chosen is most likely the one we took when we entered the forest. Why should we take the small path instead of the correct one?”
Lin Yi smiled faintly,”you’ve misunderstood, boss Huang!” I chose that path for the sake of our team’s safety and to save time. ”
“Does everyone think that the larger ones are just for people to walk through? I don’t think so! There are many traces left behind by beasts on that road. If I’m not wrong, not only is this not the road we’re looking for, but it’s also the route that darkness demon beasts and darkness spirit beasts take when they gather together. ”
“The pack of night demonic wolves isn’t necessarily the only pack in this dense forest. The stronger beasts have their own territories, but the concept of territories is only effective for beasts of the same level. The weaker ones will also live in various areas.”
“As for the stronger beasts, they won’t care about the territories of the weaker beasts. For the strong, their territories will include the territories of several weaker beasts, and all of them will be their hunting grounds!”
“So we can’t rule out the possibility that there might be darkness demon beasts that are stronger than the night demonic wolf group in this area. Walking on the obvious beast path is not only dangerous, but it will also waste more time!”
The people around him felt that it made sense and nodded in their hearts, but Huang Shan Mao did not think so.
If he was easily persuaded by Lin Yi and acted according to Lin Yi’s instructions, his position as Captain would really be over. Even if he didn’t get fired, he’d be stripped of his power.
Huangshan Mao didn’t want his prestige to fall to the bottom!
“Vice-captain Sima’s words aren’t without reason, but I still insist that this road is the same as the one we took before! As for the traces you mentioned, it’s very simple! If we ride the Black Spirit Ferghana horses, we’ll also leave traces behind!”
Huangshan Mao was right. The Black Spirit Ferghana horse was also a type of darkness spirit beast. It was only used as a Mount for humans after being tamed.
