Liao Xiaoli didn't know what was on her mind. She was happy to have money anyway. As she ate her bread, she thought about her son's tuition and how much financial support she could give her son for his future graduation.

He bit down on his bread and continuously used his night vision goggles to look at the forest shrouded in darkness.

The forest below had the most owls in it, except for the occasional nocturnal scout.

She closed her eyes and tried to feel if she could find Xiao Meng Han, hoping that she could do some telepathy or something, but there was no, the woman's sixth sense had also gone to sleep. Helplessly putting down the night vision goggles, she momentarily lost all of her appetite.

”Worried about your husband?” Liao's theory was that Mo Xiaoxiao's husband was a member of the expedition, because he had not come home and had lost contact.

Moreover, she had also hired her hot air balloon. She heard that the forest around this area was sealed off, and since the ground was not working, she came from the air.

Liao Xiaoli thought Jing Xiaoxiao was smart. She comforted her, ”Don't worry, your husband will be fine. There are plenty of wild men and wolves, and they are excellent reporters. Some of the reporters got themselves some photos from the newspapers in order to hand over their scripts. Who can guarantee that they didn't find actors in advance and put on bearskins to wait for them there? I think the Apes in the American and European films are much more realistic than those in the newspapers. ”

However, she knew what the truth was. Sometimes, being an ordinary person who didn't know anything was really good, just like how she used to be. Now that she couldn't continue, she couldn't stay out of it.

Liao Xiaoli hesitated for a while and then said to Mo Xiaoxiao, ”Actually, these things aren't really catching people by surprise. My husband's car accident at that time was really something like catching people by surprise, and before he died, he told me that he saw a monster, and I don't believe him. But as he looked very serious before he died, I remember now, I was wondering if he saw Ox-Head and Horse-Face, or the Black and White Impermanence, these explorers lost contact in the wilderness for so long, I can't say for sure.”

Mo Xiaoxiao was stunned as she felt the connection between the monster and Xiao Meng Han that Mister Liao had mentioned. That was something that happened more than a decade ago.

She could not give up. Even if they were demons, or monsters in the eyes of others, they were still the closest people to her.

The couple had been together for hundreds of days. Mo Xiaoxiao couldn't just give up on Xiao Menghan like that, let alone the fact that Xiao Yu was born. He was so small and cute, so how could he escape if he met a wolf?

”You don't look good?” Liao Xiaoli looked at her and said worriedly, ”I just said it casually. Don't take it seriously. There aren't any monsters in this world. My wife, ah, has a short life.”

He didn't know how to comfort Liao Xiaoli, so he just handed her a glass of water. The feeling of floating in the air for too long made him dizzy. In the narrow space, she suddenly felt like she couldn't breathe.

She stood up and leaned against the edge of the hot air balloon. She used her night vision goggles to look at the forest below. They were currently flying at a low altitude and flying very slowly. In order to not show off too much, they had only turned on a very weak light in the basket of the hot air balloon.

Liao Xiaoli was sleepy. Her life was very regular, and in order to save electricity at home, she would go to bed early at night. She yawned, because the basket wasn't big, and there were a lot of things to put in.

As soon as she passed the age of 30, her body began to descend the slope. She had overdrawn her body and fell sick for so many years. She really couldn't take staying in a hot air balloon for so long.

Liao Xiaoli's idea was to find an inn to rest at night. However, Mo Xiaoxiao had to fly at night.

Liao Xiaoli hadn't flown over. She had agreed to the request for money. Liao Xiaoli had neglected the fact that the weather had affected the hot air balloon.

When Mo Xiaoxiao discovered that something was wrong, the hot air balloon had already deviated from its original flight trajectory, flying off in an unknown direction.
