Night Rain in the barren mountains

The mountains and forests are silent at night, and the only a few starlight in the cloudy sky is also blocked by the dense canopy, making the whole forest out of reach out. There were also a few nightbird calls in the distance, but there was no sound of the wind blowing on the treetops nearby. The trees and grass were all static. The air was filled with the wet heat of the mountain rain and a strangeness. A wild dog inadvertently approached here, but was frightened by the fishy smell touched by its nose, clamping its tail and sobbing. Escaped.

In the woods, a huge object squirms with imperceptible movements.

"Haha, you got up so early this time, it seems that you are hungry! Are you looking forward to me coming?" The sudden unbridled laughter broke the silence. At this time, lightning cut through the sky, and as the muffled thunder rolled by, the long-standing rainstorm finally fell. In the light and shadow of lightning that hit the sky and earth like a silver chain, you can see a young man standing in the forest laughing. He stood in the rainstorm without cover. Of course, he was soaked soon. His hair, skirts and corners of his trousers were dripping. He leisurely put his hands in his trousers pocket and was complaining, "Why do you come every time he comes to see you? What about the heavy rain? It's a pity that this dress is a famous brand, thousands of yuan a body.

Opposite him, his huge body slowly leaned towards him in the dark.

The man leaned against the tree and said lazily, "Eat quickly, don't complain - I haven't complained yet... What, I want to eat women and children!" I never eat females and children. Don't you think so. He said to himself, and a low roar sounded from him. The man was unmoved, waved like a fly, and said endlessly, "Eat me if you don't get women and children? You eat it! Who will come to feed you after eating? I'm not talking about you, even if I don't know how to repay you, you shouldn't eat me. I come to feed you once every ten years, rain or shine, overcome all difficulties, and make a promise... I've persisted for more than 200 years. You don't want to think about how much you eat at a time. Is it easy to accumulate so many things? In order to make you full, I will save money, be careful, open source and save money, and be self-reliable... You don't see that I'm hungry and thin..."

There was another roar, which obviously added a threat to the sound.

"Don't yell at me. Eat quickly. I'm not trapped here. Now I'm the only one who remembers you, gives you my food, and comes to chat with you. How good I am to you. How can you not be moved at all..." The man is still chattering, and the huge shadow suddenly stands still Moving, it disappeared for a moment. At this time, the wind and rain suddenly stopped, the clouds suddenly cracked, and the moonlight sprinkled on the earth.

The man still leaned on the tree, but his smile somehow restrained. He looked up at Haoyue and said for a long time, "It's another ten years..."

The fresh breath of the mountain forest after the light wind blew through the rain, replacing the air that made people feel overwhelmed and suffocating just now. A field mouse appeared in the grass and probed his head, and then a small insect jumped over the grass leaves. The forest seemed to suddenly come to life. The man reached out and bounced on the nose of the little field mouse, when the vol When he fled back to the cave in panic, the man also disappeared.

Although the mountain is not high and the road is not rough, Bai Ruolin began to shout that she was tired after walking for less than 40 minutes. Several men in her accompanied her extended a helping hand, but she deliberately approached Liu Di and wanted to give her salute to him. Liu Di smiled apologetically and showed her the two backpacks in his hand. Finally, Zhou Feng took Bai Ruolin's backpack.

"Hmm." Zhang Qian heard Tang Shiya sneer beside her. Obviously, she was very happy that Liu Di did not take Bai Ruolin's luggage. Zhang Qian shook her head. If she hadn't been afraid of being too noticed, she really wanted to take back her backpack held by Liu Di, so as not to accidentally get involved in the open and secret struggle between Bai Ruolin and Tang Shiya.

Tang Shiya ran to Liu Di again, took something from her bag, took a kettle again, complained about the difficulty of the mountain road, and generously hooked Liu Di's arm. Liu Di obviously welcomed the woman to put his arm on his arm, and immediately got closer to Tang Shiya.

Kaiming Mountain is 40 kilometers away from Lixin City. It is a mountain that has not been artificially developed and still maintains its natural scenery. Recently, mountaineering has become popular among urban youth. This mountain is not dangerous and not very wide, and the natural and beautiful scenery of Kaiming Mountain has attracted many climbers. These young men and women who grew up in the metropolis have purchased simple supplies and can enjoy the natural beauty and clear scenery in the mountains on weekends. New air can relax, connect with friends, and show that you are at the forefront of fashion, so the mountain is very lively every holiday. Even in the small villages at the foot of the mountain, there are shops specializing in providing supplies and food for mountain climbers.

The nine people in front of us are also a team that takes advantage of the long vacation to climb mountains.

Four of them are college students: Song Zhen, Zhang Qian, Bai Ruolin and Tang Shiya. Song Zhen is Zhang Qian's classmate. She invited Zhang Qian to climb this mountain. Song is really a girl with a manly temperament. She is generous and unrestrained. She usually likes to speak righteously and fight injustice. Zhang Qian likes this friend very much. Bai Ruolin is a first-level schoolgirl. Few people at S University don't know this talented and beautiful school beauty, and three of the five men who came to climb the mountain this time are all for her. Tang Shiya is fair-skinned, sweet and cute, although she has become the "former" school beauty since Bai Ruolin entered the school. , but she is charming and naive, not as self-righte as Bai Ruolin. She usually attracts the attention of many boys at school, and now the man named Liu Di is obviously more interested in her than Bai Ruolin.

Only two of the nine people are not students of S University: Song Zhen's boyfriend Chen Shu is a civil servant, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, quite talkative, his personality imitates the truth of Song, and is generous; while another man named Liu Di joined the team on the way. He claims to be a librarian of the municipal library and uses fake Come to climb the mountain. Liu Di is tall and handsome, and his words, dress and behavior are full of the smell of "new human beings". Standing among the men, he stands out from the crowd. As soon as he joined Tang Shiya, he stuck to him, and even Bai Ruolin, who had three flower protectors followed him, couldn't help paying special attention to him.

Although the age is almost the same, compared with Chen Shu and Liu Di, the three boys at S University always feel that there is something missing. All three of them are also popular figures in the school, but a certain maturity of people in society is exactly what they lack.

Qin Changlu is the chairman of the student union of S University. He is a talented man with excellent character and learning, and he is not arrogant, unpretentious, and has excellent leadership ability. The only thing is that he knows too well that he is a little aggressive. He has been pursuing Bai Ruolin for more than a year, but from Bai Ruolin's good impression of Liu Di today, Qin Changlu is not her favorite type at all. I'm afraid it will be futile for him to follow up in the mountains this time. The other two boys, Zhou Feng and Wu Shangli, were originally good friends, but since they pursued Bai Ruolin together, they have been a little close. Hearts don't agree. Wu Shangli is handsome. Although he is not as good as Liu Di, he is a famous brand from the inside out. He is very good at hitting himself and always thinks of himself as a beautiful man. Although Wu Shangli is a little "stinky", he is cheerful and righteous, and has absolutely nothing to say to his friends. Therefore, he is very popular among boys and girls. This mountaineering was also proposed by him first. Zhou Feng is the son of a rich businessman, but he is different from his good friend Wu Shangli in terms of spending money. He is very measured and has a good friend. He is generous, but he never pays off, and he has a calm personality and doesn't talk much, which makes people feel that he is a very reliable person.

The last member of the team is Zhang Qian. She is quite talented in writing. She has published two collections of poems and one prose collection, and is also a well-known "talented woman" at S University. Her temper is somewhat strange, and she often likes to look at things with the cold eyes of outsiders, so she doesn't have many friends. Even in such a group of young people's collective action, she replaces observation and listening with observation and listening, and it can be seen from the people around her that a story is Zhang Qian's biggest hobby.

After crossing the hill, a large rocky area appeared. Everyone jumped from the rocks, and the water flowed through the cracks between the rocks. The feeling of mountaineering and camping became stronger and stronger. When they crossed this rocky area and walked not far away, there was a green meadow. On the left side, there was a stream flowing out of the rocky area, right On the side is a mountain wall surrounded by ancient vines and several small trees, and not far ahead is a dense mountain forest.

Several girls washed their hands and faces in the stream and picked a few wild flowers on the grass. They immediately fell in love with this place and shouted that they wanted to camp here. Wu Shangli, the organizer of the event, pointed to the map and explained for a long time, saying that the most suitable place for camping should be one kilometer ahead. The scenery there was better than here, but the girls refused to listen at all. In the end, everyone obeyed the willfulness of women and set up a tent early at 4 p.m.

Once the camp begins, men are responsible for setting up tents, picking up firewood, cleaning the site, and also responsible for driving away insects and ants to reassure the girls, while girls are responsible for cooking - such division of labor and cooperation is easy to say, and once it is actually operated, it is not as simple as you think. Ten minutes later, the boys retreated from the front line of the tent, leaving Liu Di alone to continue their unfinished career. These men watched Liu Di hum their little song easily, set up a tent a few times, and then looked at the wound on their hands caused by the rope. They really had nothing to say. Of course, they didn't want to be idle and were immediately sent by the girls to pick up firewood, collect water and wash rice. In ten minutes, when Bai Ruolin coughed by smoke and the scream of Song Zhen being cut into her hand by a knife came, Liu Di, who had already set up five tents, appeared by the fire, took Song Zhen's kitchen knife in one hand, held Zhang Qian's pot in the other hand, and cooked neatly.

"Wow, Liu Di's craftsmanship is so good!" After the meal, everyone gathered around the bonfire and drank the tea made by Liu Di. Everyone was satisfied, and Tang Shiya immediately praised it.

Basically, from setting up a tent to cooking, the camping work of nine people was arranged by Liu Di alone. Tang Shiya nodded together, and even the three boys who were originally a little dissatisfied with Liu Di were glad to have joined him.

Zhang Qian looked at Liu Di and changed her views on him: Originally, she thought he was the kind of man who liked to provoke girls, behaved frivolous, and belonged to the category of embroidered pillows. Now it seems that he also has advantages? Liu Di found that she was looking at herself and squeezed her eyes at her. Zhang Qian turned away and placed him into her most Among the annoying men.

No matter what Zhang Qian thinks, Liu Di has been favored by three other women. Tang Shiya has been snuggled by him and almost assumed his girlfriend. Bai Ruolin has been praising his craftsmanship. Even Song Zhen also "ordered" her boyfriend: "You have to learn more from others."

"People always have advantages. I just like to eat, so I learned to cook." Liu Di cleverly changed the topic before he was unhappy with other men because of Bai Ruolin's favor, and then talked about football with Wu Shangli. It seemed that he was at least smoother than those students. He seemed to know that Zhang Qian was observing himself and secretly squeezed his eyes at her, with a smile at the corners of his mouth.

"...that is, not far up, half of it is buried in the soil." After dinner, everyone sat under the starry moonlight, tasted tea and chatted, and divided into several groups according to their interests: Liu Di, Wu Shangli and Qin Changlu were talking about football, while Tang Shiya came among them and interrupted without understanding; Song Zhen and Bai Ruolin were discussing the content of yesterday's series. Zhang Qian held a cup and slowly drank water to listen to them. Chen Shu and Zhou Feng whispered from the beginning.

Song Zhen pushed his boyfriend and asked, "What are you talking about?" I still want to hide it from everyone!"

"Nothing," Chen Shu said with a smile, "Actually, I came here with my friends the other day. That time, I found a strange stone tablet in the mountain and never understood what it was. I just heard that Zhou Feng was very researching about cultural relics and was asking him for advice.

"Where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, where, Zhou Feng was modest and showed that his family was qualified to collect antiques as a good love.

"Oh, what stone tablet?" Everyone's attention was attracted by this topic.

"Listen, maybe it's really antique!" Wu Shangli asked with great interest.

"It is a monument 30 centimeters wide, revealing more than 20 centimeters. The exposed part has no words, engraved with a monster: nine heads, a human face, and a tiger body. I have been to many temples, Taoist temples and ancient buildings, and I have never seen this pattern. I remembered it today, so I was asking Zhou Feng.

"Zhou Feng, what is that?" Bai Ruolin stared at Zhou Feng and asked.

Zhou Feng said shyly, "I don't know. I'll go back and ask my father." He is an honest man. Although the favorite person asked, he refused to brag to win her favor, and said, "But my father collects porcelain. I'm afraid he also..."

"That's an enlightened beast." Liu Di interrupted and said with a smile, "It's not a monster, it's a mythical beast."

"What?"

"Mythical beast?"

"How do you know?"

Everyone asked about Liu Dilai again.

"Isn't this called Kaiming Mountain?" Liu Di said slowly, "I work in the library. I once looked through the ancient records around here. It is said that at some time in ancient times, a nine baby appeared nearby. It harmed the world and ate countless people. It became a vast ocean..." He closed his eyes slightly as he spoke, okay. It's like having experienced all this first-time and recalling the past. Unfortunately, his performance did not have the effect of making everyone immersive, because at least four people interrupted him at the same time and asked, "What is Jiuying?"

"It is a kind of snake with nine heads that can control water and fire. It is a very powerful monster."

"Oh, I remember that there was such a thing among the monsters that Yi killed for the people?" Zhang Qian remembered where she had seen the name "Jiuying".

"Yes, it's that kind of monster - this nine baby is making waves here, making people miserable. At this time, an enlightened beast happened to pass by here: the enlightened beast is as engraved on the stone plate. Nine heads, human face and tiger body are the mythical beasts that protect the emperor of Kunlun Emperor." This time, without waiting for others to ask questions, Liu Di himself made an annotation first, "This enlightened beast is kind-hearted. In order to drive away Jiuying, he fought with it for seven days and nights, and finally subdued Jiuying on this mountain. Later, people named the mountain Kaiming Mountain in order to express their gratitude to the enlightened beast. I think that monument is mostly because of this legend.

"Liu Di is so powerful that he even knows these!" Tang Shiya scrambled to get up first.

" According to Liu Di's words, that monument must be antique!" Chen Shu looked very excited.

"Let's get it out tomorrow and study it! Write an academic paper or something. Zhou Feng is also very interested.

Qin Changlu also said happily, "It seems that this monument is still a long time ago! Do you know that nine babies and enlightened beasts are all recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. They are legendary monsters in ancient times. Since Buddhism was introduced into China, these 'native-native' monsters have been slowly forgotten by people. So that monument and that legend must be from a long time ago!"

"Yes, those 'monsters' no longer exist in people's minds, they don't exist anymore..." Liu Di said to himself for a moment, but immediately smiled and said, "It's not a good thing that such a strange thing doesn't exist! Compared with the great compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, of course, the latter is more interesting, right? However, everyone did not pay attention to his words, but focused on whether to make the monument out. Only Zhang Qian suddenly asked, "So, what happened to that Jiuying?"

"Nine Ying?"

"Yes, according to that legend, shouldn't it still be here? Is it sealed on this enlightened mountain? Zhang Qian said this, imagining that maybe it was in the land under her feet and couldn't help shivering.

"In fact, there is another legend that the enlightened beast did not seal Jiuying or kill it, but that there was an agreement between the two sides before the duel, and those who lost should be disposed of by the victory. After Jiuying lost, he obediently stayed on this mountain according to the requirements of the enlightened beast, no longer left, no longer eat people, and trusted the other party's place. A promise. It is said that Jiuying asked the enlightened beast when to release it, and the enlightened beast said, 'I'll let you go next time I pass by here.' Then it returned to Kunlun and no longer passed by..."

"This biography is even more terrible. If the nine baby is not sealed at all, can it come out at any time to do something strange?" Zhang Qian pressed her chest and said.

Liu Di smiled and said, "Even if it knows that the enlightened beast will never come back to release it, it will continue to wait, promise a thousand gold and admit defeat in gambling. This guy is admirable."

"Ha ha, that's just a legend," Zhang Qian laughed. "But if it's true as a legend, it's really admirable."

"Yes, legend..." Liu Di put his hand on his knees, put his head on his arm, and stared at Zhang Qian with a smile.

"Liu Di, what do you think should be done..." Others have discussed the specific steps to dig out the stone tablet, and Tang Shiya asked Liu Di's opinion in a delicate voice.

"Let's go and see." Liu Di was not interested in this topic. Hearing Qin Changlu say to Bai Ruolin, "That stone tablet may be a magic weapon to suppress Jiuying, and once it is dug out, Jiuying will be released", he shrugged his shoulders. He tilted his head and looked at the sky and suddenly said, "It's going to rain."

Several people listened to his words and looked up at the sky casually and shouted together: "Why is it cloudy all of a sudden!"

I don't know when the bright moon and stars in the sky have been replaced by rolling dark clouds. The clouds seem to be pressing down from the air, rolling against the top of the mountain, and the humidity in the air also begins to increase. It seems that the rain will fall immediately.

"Does the weather forecast say that it will be sunny these days? Why is it raining!" Wu Shangli waved his hand to protest against the sky.

A flash of lightning passed, and the thunder exploded in the air, and everyone couldn't help shivering.

"It's going to rain soon. Let's go back to the tent. This thunderstorm will stop after a while. The air will be better tomorrow. Qin Changlu said confidently.

"Yes, it's time to go to bed, or you will have the strength to climb the mountain tomorrow." Everyone agreed with his suggestion and walked to the tent. There are five tents in total. Zhang Qian and his eight people brought four tents, and Liu Di brought one by himself. Of course, the two of them shared one, and Liu Di lived alone. Liu Di shouted there, "Welcome ladies to live with me." He was white-eyed by men, but got Tang Shiya's smile.

No matter how a girl can run to live with a man, so when everyone enters the assigned tent, Liu Di is the only one left in the camp. When Zhang Qian finally turned around, she saw him standing there and looking up to the sky. The expression on her face flashed in the residual firelight. It was no longer the look of the hippie smile. Zhang Qian was about to look more carefully, but another muffled thunder rolled over. The rain fell like a splash, and the bonfire flashed faintly in the rainstorm and went out. Liu Di's figure also turned into a silhouette on a rainy night, but he still stood there and raised his head, as if he didn't feel the rain hitting him.

"Cyan, help me get that." Bai Ruolin's voice interrupted Zhang Qian. Although she just met today, Bai Ruolin has called Zhang Qian's name very kindly. In her idea, Zhang Qian, known as a talented woman, is qualified to be her friend. Maybe she will never understand that others may have different ideas from him.

"This?" Zhang Qian handed her a makeup bag. When Zhang Qian looked back, the transparent glass used as a window on the tent had been wet by the rain, and it could be faintly distinguished that Liu Di was no longer there.

With the sound of rain, thunder and the unique sound in the mountains and forests, Zhang Qian, who was a little nervous, could hardly fall asleep. Bai Ruolin beside her was already asleep. Zhang Qian looked at her with a bitter smile. Maybe she was so close to strangers. Anyway, she couldn't sleep.

The sound of rain has become much smaller. Maybe she can go out for a walk. Zhang Qian has always had the habit of walking in the drizzle.

When she opened the door of the tent slightly, the smell of rain and soil came to her face. The rain was still falling, and it was bigger than Zhang Qian thought. In this case, she obviously couldn't go out, so sit here and breathe fresh air. When she was thinking about it, a shadow appeared in the rain and quickly went to the woods. Go.

"Liu Di?" Zhang Qian immediately thought so. Even if there was only one back, Zhang Qian thought it was him (because no one in the team was as tall as him), "He still ran around when it rained?" However, thinking that she had the same plan just now, Zhang Qian had to smile.

The rain suddenly became heavy again, as if it was going to swallow up the world, and there was a roar from the mountains and forests in the distance. Yes, Zhang Qian felt that she heard it correctly. It was a roar. She couldn't think about what beast was hidden in the mountain. She quickly returned to the bed and closed her eyes.

After the rain, the mountains and forests were particularly pleasant. After everyone rushed out of the tent, the depression caused by the thunderstorm last night was swept away by the early morning air, sunshine and the sound of birds. Song Zhen simply jumped around on the grass and sang words such as "How blue the sky, how high the mountains are, how happy I am" in his mouth. Others are stretching their limbs to take deep breaths, some are chatting, and most of their eyes are focused on one point - Liu Di, who is cooking. Anyway, after yesterday, people who like him and don't like him regard him as a person who is not allowed to cook.

"Zhou Feng, eat." Wu Shangli shouted in the tent.

What answered him was silence.

"No way, you're still sleeping! Get up, pig!" Wu Shangli walked into the tent and kicked Zhou Feng's sleeping place, but only kicked an empty sleeping bag. Where is Zhou Feng's guy?" Wu Shangli stretched out his head from the tent and asked, "Has anyone seen him?"

Chen Shuzheng and Song Zhen hid under the tree with the good morning light, but they finally heard this and pointed to the mountains and said, "I saw him enter the forest - haven't he come back yet?"

After a while, everyone had eaten, cleaned up their tents, picked up their luggage and were ready to leave, but Zhou Feng still didn't come back. Maybe he ran to the front to find the stone tablet. Wu Shangli had to carry Zhou Feng's luggage and curled his lips to say so.

"Isn't it more convenient to wait for Chen Shu to lead the way?" Bai Ruolin interrupted.

"Well, he may be thinking about how to move the monument home without telling us. How can he wait for Chen Shu?" Wu Shangli showed dissatisfaction with his good friend in front of people for the first time.

"Don't worry, he can't move such a big thing. Let's just keep up quickly." Qin Changlu patted Wu Shangli on the shoulder and said that he really wanted to see that the two rivals were not compatible with each other.

Zhang Qian smiled faintly and felt that they were competing for their girlfriends as if children were competing for toys. Yu Guangzhong caught a glimpse of Liu Di, who walked at the end of the team, looked ahead, frowned, and had a strange expression on his face.

Everyone stayed there for a long time, and no one could move or make a sound. Their eyes stopped at Zhou Feng's body beside the stone tablet.

He is dead.

He lay on his back sadly, with a large skull sinking on his head. His eyes were not closed, but his neck was strangely twisted, opening a big hole from his chest to his abdomen, and his flesh and white bones were exposed, showing an empty abdominal cavity.

"Ah..."

Tang Shiya shouted crazily, turned around and ran away. Her actions reminded others that everyone ran together. Zhang Qian followed Song Zhen closely and felt that the smell of blood had been following her behind her head. She closed her eyes to drive the terrible scene out of her mind, shook her head hard, and suddenly hit a soft object.

Zhang Qian found that she had hit Liu Di. Liu Di opened her arms and blocked herself and Song Zhen, who was also rushing forward with her eyes closed, to avoid them from hitting the tree. Behind him, others either hold the tree, or back to back, or simply squat on the ground, or gasp, or simply vomit.

"Zhou Feng is dead! He is dead!" Bai Ruolin screamed a little terrical. Zhou Feng usually followed her and paid attention to her. It was most difficult for her to imagine that the other party would die at once.

"Call the police, call the police!" Wu Shangli said as he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, pressed the key hard, and threw it to the ground a few minutes later - in such a deep mountain, the mobile phone had no signal at all.

A desperate look appeared on Qin Changlu's face: "Monster, it must be a monster! Because Zhou Feng went to move the stone tablet, the monster ate him! Don't you see that his internal organs are gone? What should we do? Will we also..."

"Don't be crazy! How can there be monsters in the world!" Chen Shu shouted loudly and woke everyone up from panic. Although his face was pale, at least he was calmer than others and said, "Zhou Feng was killed. Didn't you see his skull broken?" His internal organs... may have been swallowed by beasts in the mountains. We must keep calm now, go back to the mountain first, and then call the police.

It's a matter for everyone to leave here. Everyone immediately followed Chen Shu's words and went back the same way. According to the time when it came, even in addition to the time to play and enjoy the scenery, I'm afraid everyone will have to spend a night on the mountain. Thinking of Zhou Feng's body on the mountain, there may also be a murderer. This involuntarily accelerated the speed, almost trot forward.

Chen Shu must be several years older than other "people". After the accident, everyone unconsciously regarded him as the leader. The day was getting dark. After calculating the rest of the journey, Chen Shu decided to stop here for a night: "It will take at least four hours to walk down the mountain, and it may take longer at night - none of us know. If there is any danger in this mountain, it is safer for everyone to rest overnight. Although everyone was eager to escape from here, they still obeyed him.

"It's all my fault. I don't suggest climbing." Bai Ruolin cried and said that Qin Changlu and Wu Shangli comforted her softly on both sides - now they have gone to a rival in love first, but it will not make them happy at all.

Tang Shiya was also crying, and Song Zhao himself was also tearful, but he still coaxed her.

Chen Shu sat on the stone, staring at the map, and his hands trembled slightly. At this time, Zhang Qian felt that the most calm person in the team was not him, but Liu Di, who was busy setting up tents, making fires and cooking. Zhang Qian loosened Song Zhao's shoulder and walked to Liu Di.

While fixing the rope of the tent into the soil, Liu Di moved the kettle by the fire with his feet so that it could be heated better. Zhang Qian saw that there was even a smile on his face.

"I'm here to help you, but it's unfair for you to wait on your own." Zhang Qian said this, and he was indeed a little angry. Everyone had experienced the same terrible thing, but let Liu Di do everything necessary, as if he hadn't seen those situations.

Liu Di shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know him, so I'm not as sad as you." He aggravated his tone when he said the word "sad", and some other things were contained in it.

Zhang Qian helped him take the pot off the fire, invited everyone to eat, saw that Liu Di was still fighting with those ropes, and then went over to help him pull it hard. Come on, don't put your anger on the rope and go to dinner, ah." Liu Di whispered to her.

"I'm not angry, I'm scared." Zhang Qian blurted out from the bottom of her mind, "There is something to do. Maybe it's better."

"What are you afraid of? It will be fine tomorrow."

"Tomorrow..." Zhang Qian smiled bitterly, and suddenly a line commonly used by detectives came to her mind, "The murderer is among us." Her back stiffened. By the way, she had this feeling from the beginning. Now the atmosphere among everyone is very strange. Maybe... She became more and more afraid, and she began to tremble and hurried back to the fire.

"The murderer... What's that? The terrible thing is..." Liu Di looked at Lin Zhong and muttered to himself, "Have you come yet..."

"The murderer may be among us."

Everyone has no appetite to eat, but they have to force themselves to eat some in order to have the strength to go down the mountain tomorrow. After dinner, no one will touch the tea made by Liu Di. They are afraid that drinking tea will make them more unable to sleep. They sit together in silence, and no one mentions about resting. Just then, Qin Changlu said that.

Everyone is still silent. Maybe more than one person has thought about this sentence.

"There are no monsters in the world, and if anyone else comes to this road, we will always be a little aware of it! Besides, if it's a stranger, why should I kill him for no reason?" Qin Changlu made up his mind and said in one breath.

Wu Shangli muttered in a low voice, "Do we have a reason to kill him?"

"Of course!" Qin Changlu shouted, "Do you owe him a lot of money?" You spend a lot of money, and your family is not rich. Zhou Feng, as a friend, once lent you a lot of money. Now for... for that matter, he may ask you for such a large amount, you can never take it out.

"He never lent me money! His stingy person will lend me money. Dream! He and I don't have any financial disputes at all, and of course we won't kill people for money!" Wu Shangli held his arm angrily and said. However, everyone knows that Zhou Feng has always been generous to his friends. A close friend like Wu Shangli is unlikely to have any financial entanglement with him, but now Wu Shangli's dismantanglement is also what it should be in the question, and no one says anything. I know you don't believe it, but you are not afraid of shadows!" Wu Shangli added, "I'm not afraid that someone wants to frame me."

"I'm not framed you, but talking about the possibility." Qin Changlu said calmly, "Not only you, but also me. We are rivals in love, and I can't help but want to kill him. And Chen Shu, you have just been demoted recently, and the reason is that you have offended Zhou Feng's father. He used money to do something."

Chen Shu scratched his head: "Before yesterday, I didn't know whose son he was."

"And Tang Shiya, aren't you Zhou Feng's ex-girlfriend? He is estrogenating. Don't you want to kill him?"

"Obviously, I dumped him!" Tang Shiya shouted in a hurry, "Who would like a guy who is useless except money!"

"Zhang Qian, you should have become the president of the Literature Society. You have published books, are talented and popular than Zhou Feng, but as a result, he became the president by his relationship. Will you really not be angry? Then why did you quit the literary club?

Zhang Qian shook her head with a bitter smile. She refused to become the president of the Literature Society. She withdrew from the Literature Society because she was in a very bad mood because of a strange thing during that time. She almost thought that she was about to have a mental breakdown and did so without any flaw in the community activities. Later, she felt that she did not have to be in the community. You can write something, but you don't add it. She looked at Qin Changlu, and the other party was still talking endlessly. His spiritual and unusual behavior was not like the confident and steady president of the student union.

"You don't know him well, but your boyfriend has conflicts with him..." Qin Changlu has pointed to Song Zhen, and Song Zhen stared and was about to quarrel with him.

"You are the most suspicious!" Qin Changlu pointed his spearhead at Liu Di.

Liu Di shrugged his shoulders and waited for him to speak with a smile.

"You suddenly ran out halfway. Who knows why you joined us? What's the purpose? You live in a tent by yourself. Who knows what you have done!"

"Ah..." Liu Di yawned. He ignored the Qin Changlu he was still talking about and said to everyone, "Girl, go to bed quickly. The four of us are divided into two groups, shifts in the middle and the middle of the night. Chen Shu, I'll give it to you two first. Let's go to bed first, ah... I'm so sleepy..." He yawned and got into Wu Shangli first. Only then did everyone notice that he had set up four tents today. It seems that he had already thought that living alone would be suspicious and prepared to live with Wu Shangli today. Liu Di did all the work of setting up the tent alone, and Wu Shangli could not raise any objection, and even Qin Changlu had to shut up. Everyone slowly walked back to their respective tents.

A gust of wind blew through the camp, and the humidity was filled with dark clouds. The sky was actually cloudy again. After a while, there was thunder and a sudden rainstorm, which showered Chen Shu and Qin Changlu, who were preparing for the night vigil, back into the tent.

"Why is it raining again? Isn't it enough..." Wu Shangli complained, but Liu Di opened the tent and stared at the rain curtain outside. What are you doing? The rain blew in!" Wu Shangli shouted. Let me see if they have returned to the tent." They are not stupid!" Wu Shangli said angrily.

"Really..." The moment Liu Di closed the tent, the wind sent a smile to his ear in the jungle: "I won't take action, remember, you are not allowed to interfere..."

Zhang Qian sat on her knees, and Bai Ruolin opposite her could not sleep. There was no topic between them, so they were so silent. Time passed slowly and the rain sounded a little lower. Bai Ruolin seemed to have fallen asleep. Zhang Qian sighed gently. Meeting this kind of thing was like a nightmare, but such a dream lasted until tomorrow morning. You don't necessarily wake up.

"Alas..." Zhang Qian sighed gently. She and Zhou Feng were both members of the literary society, and they looked up and couldn't see him down, and it was difficult to accept his death in her heart. So who would the murderer be among us? Think carefully, no one can have time to do the crime. Whether it is killing Zhou Feng by the stone tablet or getting there after killing him, it will take several hours, and none of them has left for so long. Maybe Zhou Feng, who ran alone in front of everyone, met something before he was killed, and the murderer was also in this forest. Zhang Qian shuddered when she thought of coming here, as if she felt that a murderer was hiding in the woods and staring at their team.

But why did Zhou Feng rush to the front leaving everyone alone? For that stone tablet? But it's impossible for him to move away? Or is there any other reason? ...What will be the reason? Is there really a monster lurking here? Impossible, impossible, there is no such thing in the world...

She was thinking wildly, listening to the thunder and storm in her ear, and all kinds of sounds in the forest finally fell asleep.

When I woke up in the morning, everyone's mood calmed down a lot and began to help Liu Di pack up and get ready to go on the road.

"Where is Tang Shiya?" Song Zhen suddenly screamed.

Only then did everyone find that there was another person missing in the team, and everyone's hearts suddenly raised their hearts and looked for it in a panic. She was still there when she was eating. Why did she disappear when she turned around?

"Qin Changlu, isn't she talking to you when she packed up?"

"I just said a few words, but I didn't pay attention to her anymore."

"Who saw where she went?"

In the tent, the nearby woods, behind the bushes... Everyone searched randomly, but there was no trace of Tang Shiya, and an ominous feeling climbed into everyone's hearts.

"What are you doing?" When everyone didn't know what she was, Tang Shiya's unique delicate voice sounded. She came out from behind the tree and stared at everyone puzzledly.

"Where have you been? Let everyone look around!"

Tang Ya didn't care about everyone's accusations at all, and looked at everyone with an aggrieved look: "I'm just going... go... You don't have to ask so clearly! Fetish!"

Look at me, look at you. It seems that everyone is indeed a little nervous and overnervous.

Packed up and set off immediately. Everyone was eager to go down the mountain quickly. Fortunately, the mountain road was full of grass. Although it was wet and slippery, it was not muddy and difficult to walk after the rain. Everyone followed the way they came and traveled at three times the speed at that time.

Tang Shiya followed Liu Di, took her arm, and leaned her head on his shoulder with a smile.

"What are you doing here?" Liu Di asked.

"I'm not full yet." Tang Shiya replied delicately, "How can the little thing you brought be enough to eat?"

"I always thought you were a 'person' who kept his promise!"

"Of course I am, I'm not." Tang Shiya pouted because of Liu Di's words.

"But..."

"I didn't do anything. You know very well!" She stretched out her slender fingers and poked Liu Di's chest. "I can warn you, don't do anything casually - unless you are so confident in yourself, puppy."

Liu Di opened her hand and said, "I hate being called a dog the most!"

"Ha ha," Tang Shiya smiled happily, "Where are your usual sharp teeth? I remember that as soon as you opened your mouth, you were as talkative as a river. How can you be honest now? She hung her whole body on Liu Di and asked slowly, "Is this the object of these people who make you care about confusion and uncertainty? Is this it? Is this it? ..." She pointed her finger at the three girls in front of her, from Bai Ruolin to Song Zhen to Zhang Qian. She drew a circle on Zhang Qian and said, "It's still her..."

Liu Di's eyes jumped and almost subconsciously grabbed Tang Shiya's hand, but the next second he calmed down and said lazily in his usual tone, "What's the matter with you?"

Tang Shiya suddenly approached his face and said with a sweet smile, "Then she is my rival Luo."

Liu Di hugged her waist and smiled and said, "Did you want to be my girlfriend? How can I know if you don't tell me... (the following lines are left), I know that you have been secretly in love with me for more than 200 years, like me, handsome, considerate, smart, generous, calm, elegant and extraordinary... (the following is about 300 left) "No woman, can't you not be moved by me?"

"Hahahaha." Tang Shiya laughed happily and hugged him and walked forward.

"At this time, I'm still in the mood to fall in love." Zhang Qian couldn't help shaking her head when she heard the whispers and laughter of Liu Di and Tang Shiya behind her. She didn't know that the eyes of the two people in the "love" stopped on her at this time.

"How could this happen! How could this happen!" Wu Shangli screamed and rushed forward, but was quickly pulled by Chen Shu's hand, but he still shouted hoarsely.

Why is this so?

Everyone looked ahead and had such an impulse to shout a few times.

In front, the original road was blocked: the heavy rain caused a mudslide, and mud and rooted trees poured down the mountain, blocking the only road tightly.

Bai Ruolin suddenly sat on the ground and cried: "I can't go back. We are trapped in the mountain."

"Who said that!" Wu Shangli shouted, "We can't climb mountains without a road!" Ruolin, don't worry, I will carry you down the mountain. He pointed to the top of the mountain and said to Bai Ruolin in a bold and dry cloud.

"Not here. From the map, this mountain is a broken wall, and I'm afraid there is a danger of landslide on this hillside. Let's go back first." Chen Shu studied the map while looking at the terrain, and then suggested. Although everyone did not want to leave the only way down the mountain, reason told them that it was useless to stand here, so they finally retreated dejected one by one.

"Let's go, what are you still in a daze?" Tang Shiya patted Qin Chang Road on the shoulder of the blocked mountain road.

"Ah..." Qin Changlu let out an indescribable scream, which scared Tang Shiya a few steps into Liu Di's arms and hid at him, shouting, "What are you doing? Why are you scaring me?"

Qin Changlu's eyes were dull, and there was indescribable fear in everyone's eyes. He breathed heavily, calmed down for a long time, and muttered, "It's okay, I'm fine."

It seems that he is really uneasy. He even let go of the opportunity to pay attention to Bai Ruolin and let Wu Shangli pat his chest in front of Bai Ruolin to show his masculinity. Zhang Qian shook her head again. Maybe after experiencing such a thing, everyone is a little abnormal. So is Qin Changlu, so is she...

Everyone retreated to a small hillside, looked at the map to discuss what to do next, and finally got two conclusions: one is to go in the opposite direction, cross the whole mountain, and go down from the other side; the other way is to climb over the mountains and walk through the undeveloped mountains and forests to see if you can find a village.

"Look, here, here and here. There are several villages near here. We can always meet one." Song Zhen pointed to the map and said to everyone. She was extremely reluctant to take the first method, because she had to walk next to Zhou Feng's body again. It seems that everyone has similar ideas to her and agrees with her words.

"Then let's go!" Chen Shu stood up and led the way to the mountain.

Zhang Qian and Song Zhen walked side by side. She found that there was something wrong with her good friend - it should be said that there was something wrong with her and Chen Shu - the couple had rarely talked to each other since yesterday. At such a panicked moment, it was not clear how much they cared about each other. Even now walking on a mountain where there is no road at all, Chen Shu will not come to help his girlfriend. Zhang Qian looked at Wu Shangli, who was holding Bai Ruolin with both hands, looked at Liu Di, who was holding hands with Tang Shiya, and then looked at Chen Shu, who was walking alone in the front, and couldn't help frowning.

Song Zhen grabbed Zhang Qian so that she did not slip in the mud. Song Zhen was agile and looked no worse than men, so she took the initiative to take care of Zhang Qian. She supported Zhang Qian, glanced at Chen Shu in front of her, and said frankly to her friend, "Don't look at him, I have nothing to do with that man!"

"How come? You were fine the day before yesterday!" Zhang Qian called out in disbelief.

"The day before yesterday." Song Zhen sneered. She looked at Liu Di's eyes and said in a low voice, "I'll tell you slowly when I go back. Anyway, we have broken up." Speaking of this, she also sighed and knew that there was something wrong with each other's feelings. She had hoped that this trip could make up for it (so she pulled her good friend Zhang Qian and wanted to get some spiritual support from her). But now it seems... well, there is no need to disguise a sweet look, happy and relaxed. It's just that... Song Zhen closed his eyes slightly. If his inference is correct, it won't be...

Zhang Qian also stopped talking and hurried on her way. So many things happened in just a few days. Who knows what will happen next?

After walking in the mud for a day, everyone had to stop on the right side of a wind-proof hillside in the evening. I don't know how far the mountain road ahead is, and I don't know where the village on the map is. Everyone is hungry and tired, sitting dejectedly, only Liu Di is Busy setting up tents and making fires.

Zhang Qian originally wanted to go there to help, but when she saw Tang Shiya following Liu Di affectionately, she stopped and talked to Song Zhen without saying a word. When the wind blew with moisture, Zhang Qian raised her head and saw dark clouds rolling up in the sky: "It's going to rain again."

For three days in a row, the sky came down at such a time, and then there was a pouring heavy rain, coupled with the death of companions and mudslides. Unconsciously, the rain also brought a kind of strangeness and ominousness. Not only Zhang Qian, but also several people were looking up at the sky and didn't know what they were thinking.

"Why is it raining again? How can I get there tomorrow?" Liu Di complained and threw a rope to Tang Shiya and asked her to pull it up.

"Don't you like rain? How nice it is to rain, it can irrigate everything," she tied the rope close to Liu Di and whispered, "You can also wash away the traces when you go to do something one night..."

"Do you have to contribute there?"

"I didn't do anything - this is very important, I...what... didn't...do it!" She said in a long tone and strengthened her tone.

"Yes, yes, I know." Liu Di replied blasily.

"Hey, who do you think is next?" Tang Shiya secretly looked at everyone and asked with great interest, "It would be nice if it were a woman. Only the internal organs of a man are worth eating. Are you a woman..." She licked her lips, as if she had an endless aftertaste. "It's not too much to swallow the whole..."

"So greedy!" Liu Di exhaled angrily and pressed a pile into the soil.

"Hee." Tang Shiya smiled without hesitation and ran to sit between Zhang Qian and Song Zhen.

This day's dinner was even more dull, and almost no one spoke. Except for Wu Shangli bragging a few words to Bai Ruolin and Chen Shu explaining tomorrow's route to everyone, no one made a sound. Although no one knew that this route could be reached, no one refuted. Zhang Qian and Song Zhen are leaning together. After all, they are women. After these days, they are very tired physically and mentally. Bai Ruolin sat between Wu Shangli and Qin Changlu and wanted to get some sense of security from them. However, Qin Changlu was obviously more afraid than she was afraid of. Several times when she was eating, the chopsticks fell to the ground, which could not play the role of a flower protector at all. Only Liu Di and Tang Shiya seemed to have forgotten the tragedy and blocked the way home, sitting beside them and whispering, talking and laughing. Zhang Qian looked at them and didn't know whether to lament their nerve toughness or the greatness of love. In a flash, she saw that Chen Shu was also looking at Liu Di and Tang Shiya. She didn't know what she was thinking and frowned slightly.

With a loud bang, the thunder finally made a majestic sound in the clouds. Qin Changlu jumped up in panic as if he was scared. Everyone knows that the rain will come down soon and return to their tents.

"Cyan." Bai Ruolin looked at Zhang Qian pitifully and suddenly asked, "Do you think there are really ghosts?" Otherwise, why does it rain at this time? Even the way back is blocked. You read a lot of books. Think about it..."

Zhang Qian quickly comforted her: "How can there be ghosts in the world? It's terrible for people. Thinking that the murderer is in this forest, my heart is furious, but there are many of us. As long as we are not alone, we will go out of the mountain tomorrow."

"Maybe...maybe..." Bai Ruolin bit her lips for a long time and finally said, "Maybe it's Zhou Feng's ghost who won't let us leave here!" He died here, so he won't let us go, so... Maybe he still wants to kill us..." She looked pale and obviously scared by her imagination.

Zhang Qian shook her head and said, "If there is really Zhou Feng's ghost, he will also bless us to leave here safely so that we can go back to the police to avenge him. How can he harm us in turn? Especially you, think about it, it's too late for him to love you. How can he hurt you? She said this originally to comfort Bai Ruolin. Who knew that the other party was more panicked after hearing it, but shouted, "You don't know, you don't know at all." Then he got into the sleeping bag and trembled.

It's really unpredictable what will happen in the entanglement between men and women. Bai Ruolin must have any reason to think that the Zhou Summit hates her, right? Even Song Zhen and Chen Shu, who had always been sweet, actually... Zhang Qian sighed and stretched out her hand to put out the portable lamp. Instead of lying down to rest, she sat at the door of the tent and looked at the wind and rain outside.

The sky and the earth are full of rain. Tonight's rain is getting bigger and bigger than a few days ago, and the overwhelming rain will flood the world. Zhang Qian thought silently that tomorrow's mountain road will become more and more difficult to walk one night. Is there really any power to keep this group of people on the mountain? Zhang Qian shook her head hard for her thoughts. In fact, she believed that there was an unexplained mysterious power between heaven and earth. "Xue Tong..." In her memory, she didn't know why, but the figure of a friend who should not exist but was extremely clear appeared again.

"There is no hell in the world!" Xue Tong said firmly, but shrugged his shoulders and looked at Zhang Qian and said, "But I said you believe there are monsters." Then he laughed mischievously.

A flash of lightning cut through the world, and there was a figure standing in the middle of the camp. Zhang Qian was shocked. Immediately, she analyzed that it was Liu Di through the man's body shape. With another flash of lightning, she saw Liu Di's face clearly. He was also looking at his tent with a deep look on his face.

Zhang Qian's heart beat violently and quickly withdrew her eyes. In retrospect, who is this Liu Di? Is he really a librarian? What kind of true face is hidden under his frivolous appearance? Zhang Qian knew nothing about this person, but for some reason, she felt that he could be trusted.

Zhang Qian must be too tired and gradually fell asleep in the hypnosis of the rain. She repeatedly had nightmares, was chased and killed by a murderer with a knife, and then chased her into a terrible ghost. She ran alone in the mountains and forest and met Zhou Feng's body head-on. She sat on the stone tablet, dripping blood and waiting with a smile to say, "Where's your new poetry collection? Let me see if it's written well. After a while, there was a companion beside her. Xue Tong pulled her and rushed over from the body, while still saying, "Didn't you say that there are no ghosts in the world? You are dazzle." But in the blink of an eye, the person who pulled her turned into Liu Di again. At this time, the ghost behind him caught up with her, and Liu Di pushed her, but he was bitten by the ghost.

"Ah..."

Zhang Qian sat up screaming. She was sweating coldly, her heart was still beating, and the situation in her dream was vivid. After finding a kettle and drinking cold water, she calmed down a little. She never slept soundly. How could she have such a terrible dream? She swept over, but was surprised to find that Bai Ruolin was not in the tent. She pulled open the tent. The rain had stopped outside and the moonlight shone coldly, but the camp was empty and there was no sign of Bai Ruolin at all. Last night, Bai Ruolin's words and her frightened appearance suddenly came to Zhang Qian's mind. She couldn't take care of much and ran out of the tent and shouted: "Liu Di, Wu Shangli! Song Zhen! Everyone, get up quickly. Bai Ruolin is gone!" Zhang Qian slapped each tent hard and called everyone up.

"Ruolin is missing? Why didn't you see it? When?" Wu Shangli shouted at Zhang Qian, as if Zhang Qian had disappeared Bai Ruolin.

"I don't know. I woke up and found that she was missing." Zhang Qian had an unexplained uneasiness in her heart and explained to everyone, "Where will she go in the middle of the night?"

"Maybe... I'll be back soon." Song Zhen looked at Tang Shiya and remembered the "disappearance" scene where she made trouble.

"But how dare she walk alone at night? She was scared last night, saying that Zhou Feng's ghost was harming everyone. How dare she go out by herself?" Zhang Qian had a very ominous feeling in her heart and became incoherent.

"Let's look for it separately!" Chen Shu shouted a little angrily.

"Look, is that Bai Ruolin's footprints?" Tang Shiya suddenly said.

There is a long string of footprints on the ground, and you can see that they are left by a string of sandals - in this team that wears sneakers and travel shoes, only Bai Ruolin is naive to wear a pair of sandals. She has always complained that the grass leaves have penetrated into the shoes, so everyone remembers it very well. Everyone's eyes followed the footprints to the edge of the forest, where grass grew on the ground and footprints could no longer be seen.

"She went to the forest." Zhang Qian muttered.

"Let's go to her, take the light, and remember not to be alone." Chen Shu had a kind of helplessness. Everyone took a flashlight and called Bai Ruolin's name into the woods.

At the beginning, everyone gathered together, and gradually the distance between each other opened, but no one dared to walk alone, in twos and threes, and they could see each other. Zhang Qian could see Wu Shangli pulling Qin's long road as far as possible. Song Zhen and Tang Shiya walked together. Chen Shu followed them, but Liu Di was beside him. Zhang Qian felt that she might have exchanged it with Tang Shiya.

"Look at your feet." Liu reminded her. The light in his hand swayed just to illuminate the road and did not call Bai Ruolin's name.

"Bai Ruolin, Bai Ruolin!" Zhang Qian ignored him and called out to herself. She became more and more anxious. Unconsciously, she came to the end of the middle road. A mountain wall appeared in front of her, and Zhang Qian wanted to turn in another direction.

"Don't shout, I can't find her." Liu Di suddenly said faintly.

"What did you say?" Zhang Qian stared at her at once.

Liu Di leaned against a tree and shrugged at her.

Zhang Qian rushed to him in a few steps, stared into his eyes and asked, "What did you just say?"

"I told you not to waste your effort. I can't find that woman." Liu Di spread out his hands and said it again.

A chill appeared in Zhang Qian's heart. Looking around, it turned out that there were only herself and Liu Di. The others seemed to have gone far away. In her ear, she faintly heard Wu Shangli shouting at Bai Ruolin, which was already very far away. She took a deep breath and asked vigilantly, "What did you do?" What do you want to do?

Liu Di stood up straight and walked towards her with a smile on his face.

Zhang Qian quickly retreated and stared at his face in preparation for his next move until she leaned against a tree.

Liu Di came to her, supported the tree with his hand, looked at Zhang Qian condescendingly, and suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, no matter what others are, I will at least save you." He stroked Zhang Qian's hair and let her go.

"You make it clear, what's wrong with Bai Ruolin? What on earth do you know?" Zhang Qian grabbed his arm.

Liu Di asked, "Do you really want to know?"

Zhang Qian nodded and looked at Liu Di's smile. She felt that this person seemed to know everything, and she also wanted to know the truth, even if it would bring danger and fear.

Liu Di took her hand from her arm and held it tightly with her own hand: "Then come with me. Maybe you will regret it if you know it. You are always so curious." His last words were almost said in a doting tone, and Zhang Qian's heart was also full of doubts. Listening to him, as if he knew himself very well.

"Did we know each other before?" Zhang Qian gently said the doubts in her heart.

"I don't know." Liu Di answered the question.

"I feel like I know you."

"Love at first sight?" Liu Di returned to that oily tone again.

Zhang Qian glanced at him. A man like Liu Di, who was too handsome, too frivolous and too "enthusiastic" to women, happened to be Zhang Qian's favorite type. She peeked at Liu Di and felt that he could be used as the target of her "most disgusting man" from any aspect, but I don't know why I can feel at ease staying with him. Now I am led by him to walk in the dense forest. Although the night wind roars over my ears, Lin Tao has bursts of shadows and longing, but it has gradually put aside the uneasiness and panic these days. Liu Di's hands were strong and warm. Zhang Qian suddenly realized that she was being held by a man and was about to shake him away, but she heard Liu say, "That's it."

Zhang Qian looked around and saw them standing on a messy grassland in the forest. It seemed that it was not far from the camp. She could faintly see the firelight and asked puzzled, "What's wrong here?"

"Aren't you looking for Bai Ruolin? She died here." Liu Di took it for granted.

Zhang Qianqiang smiled and said, "Don't joke."

Liu Di lit a piece of crushed grass and said, "The blood is still on the grass. The body was lying here."

Zhang Qian looked carefully at the grass. The long grass leaves were indeed spotted and stained with a lot of blood. The outline of the fallen grass was also like a person lying on it. "Why did you scare me with these? Are there bodies there?

"She waited so long. Of course, she swallowed it when she saw the delicious food." Liu Di said with a smile.

"What on earth are you trying to say?"

"Do you want to see anything else?"

"I want to know the truth, I want to know what happened!" Listening to what Liu Geography should say, Zhang Qian is about to be hysterical.

"Okay, I never refuse your request." Liu Di pretended to be aggrieved and looked at Zhang Qian, but looked forward again and whispered, "Say that everyone has arrived, he is coming."

"Who?" Zhang Qian also heard footsteps stepping on the leaves and couldn't help asking.

"You will know when you see it." Liu Di said in a low voice and suddenly hugged her waist from behind. Zhang Qian was shocked and tried hard to break free from the bosom of this pervert, but Liu Di's strength was too strong to break free. He whispered in Zhang Qian's ear: "Don't make a sound, don't move, don't be afraid. You just need to watch carefully, no matter what happens, I will block it. Believe me, I stayed here to keep you safe, believe me." In his gentle but resolute voice, Zhang Qian lost her judgment in an instant and let him retreat step by step.

The footsteps in front of him were getting closer and closer, and Liu Di and Zhang Qian also retreated to the wall of the mountain. Zhang Qian saw that there was no way to retreat and there was no place to hide. She didn't know what Liu Di was going to do, and she didn't know where she would think of if she was like him like this. She was thinking nonsense, but Liu Di's steps did not stop, and she still walked back step by step. When the vines blocked her eyes from front of her, Zhang Qian looked around. Everything in front of her could be seen clearly except the heavy vines, but left and right and behind her were dark. It was as dark as if it were solid. She reached out to explore around her, but by Liu The ground is pulled.

"We are in the mountain..." Zhang Qian asked in disbelief.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Who the hell are you? Why, can't it be magic?"

"It's not magic, it's magic." Liu Di said softly, "Look ahead and look carefully. The truth has come."

"Demonism?" No matter what will come out ahead, it will not surprise Zhang Qian more than what she is experiencing now. She must ask.

Liu Di smiled and sighed. Her character can't be changed at any time: "Remember, the world is a monster." He said in Zhang Qian's ear.

"Pupil!" Zhang Qian suddenly turned around and looked at him with wide eyes, "You know Xue Tong. Where is she? Who is she?"

"Remember, you said that you met a 'ghost' as soon as you entered college, and you were afraid, so I said I would accompany you for a year, but only for a year." Liu Di said softly.

"You are... pupil..." Zhang Qian's heart surged with some trivial memories. How could she forget everything about meeting monsters as soon as she entered school? And at that time, I was afraid. Who was saying, "I'll stay with you, but I'll only be with you for a year. I can't stand always becoming a woman."

"You, you..." Zhang Qian grabbed Liu Di's clothes, and many memories surged up together. She felt like she was about to faint and said, "Why have you been teasing me, me, I..." Tears fell down.

"Don't cry." Liu Di tightened his arm a little. He didn't know how contradictory it was. He didn't stay with Zhang Qian all the time. Zhang Qian would definitely accept him, but how long can it take, 50 years? Sixty years? Can it last longer? At that time, I will fall into it, and the poor one is myself. He swore that he would never love human beings again. Liu Di stretched out his hand and pressed it on Zhang Qian's forehead, and Zhang Qian's spirit immediately calmed down. Liu Di gently wiped away her tears, gently kissed her forehead, and coaxed, "Forget it, forget what happened just now. Come on, look outside. Don't you want to know the truth?" Liu Di has been afraid to see her shed tears since she was very young, especially for him.

Zhang Qian turned around and looked outside. For her, everything that had just happened had been deeply buried in the bottom of her memory.

When Zhang Qian and Liu Di were talking, two people came outside. Through the hanging vines, Zhang Qian recognized Chen Shu and Qin Changlu. The two of them lowered their heads and tossed in the grass, bushes and trees, as if they were looking for something.

"They are looking for Bai Ruolin's body." Liu Di whispered in her ear.

"But..." Zhang Qian only said two words and saw another person coming out from behind the tree, but it was Wu Shangli. He looked at Chen Shu and Qin Changlu with a doubtful face and asked, "What are you doing? Have you found Ruolin?"

Chen Shu shook his head, walked to him and asked, "How can you be yourself?" Where did you throw those two girls?

"They were so scared that I sent them back to the camp. You two haven't been back, and Liu Di and Zhang Qian are gone. Of course, I will come out to find you. Why do you turn over the grass? Do you have any clues?" He kicked the grass and saw something in a flash. He leaned over and picked up something from the ground and shouted: "This is not Ruolin's..."

Before Wu Shangli finished speaking, Qin Changlu rushed up from behind and grabbed his neck with both hands. Wu Shangli struggled hard. Although he was strong, Chen Shu also rushed to him immediately. Under the suppression of the two big men, Wu Shangli's resistance quickly calmed down. Chen Shu covered his mouth and pressed him. Qin Changlu stuck his hands and feet in his neck. Ten minutes later, Wu Shangli's legs twitched a few times and he didn't move.

Zhang Qian wanted to rush over at the moment Wu Shangli was attacked, but she was hugged tightly by Liu Di. After watching this tragic scene, she covered her mouth: "He is dead..." Chen Shu and Qin Changlu killed people, but there was no panic in their faces. Their originally correct faces appeared ferocious and dragged Wu Shangli's body to push forward. In the bushes, then talked to each other and left together.

After watching them leave, Liu Di relaxed his arm a little.

Zhang Qian grabbed his collar and shouted, "Why don't you save him and watch him die!"

Liu shook his head: "There she is. If I save people, she will also do it, and the result will only be more pathetic. He thought to himself, I just need to protect you, and as for the others, I can't take care of them.

"He? Who?"

"The monster who kept his promise and stayed here for 800 years."

"Jiuying... You mean, that's not a legend, but there is really a monster here?" Zhang Qian looked at Liu Di and found that his expression did not seem to be joking. "You mean, monsters killed them and ate them?"

"She has come." While Liu Di was talking, a slender figure came out of the woods.

"Bai Ruolin." Looking at her face, Zhang Qian saw the missing person.

Liu shook his head: "That's not your classmate Bai Ruolin--probably she likes to become the person she eats."

Bai Ruolin went straight to Wu Shangli's body, lifted the man's body out of the bush with one hand, threw it down in an empty place, and then squatted down. She scratched her finger, and Wu Shangli's body came out with a "sneer" sound. Zhang Qian only came before she saw her hand retrieved the same blood color. When something was sent to his mouth, his eyes were covered by Liu Di.

"She is a monster! She is eating people!" Zhang Qian was so scared that she almost couldn't stand. She relied on Liu Di to hug her. Liu Di licked his lips: "It looks really delicious." But he immediately woke up and persuaded Zhang Qian.

"She killed Zhou Feng, didn't she? Does she want to kill us all and eat it? Zhang Qian had difficulty calming down and asked Liu.

"She didn't kill anyone. She just ate the body." Liu Di looked at "Bai Ruolin" and felt sad in her heart. Such a powerful monster was forced to swear that she could only eat the bodies lost by others there and eat delicious food. In the past, she disdained to see such food. Once the humiliation and oppression she suffered broke out, the consequences were terrible.

"She vowed not to leave this mountain or hurt human beings. She has lived for 800 years. Once someone kills someone near her, her appetite will be aroused. Zhou Feng and Wu Shangli are male, so she only eats internal organs. As for Tang Shiya and Bai Ruolin, there are no bones left.

"Isn't Tang Shiya still there..." Zhang Qian said halfway and remembered Tang Shiya's abnormal performance in the past two days, stopped talking and looked at Liu Di.

Liu nodded: "Tang Shiya was the second one to be killed. After Zhou Feng, she ate the body and turned into Tang Shiya. She ran to you and waited for the next dish with anticipation."

"Oh, Song Zhen was alone with her just now. Will she be... eaten?" Zhang Qian's cold sweat flowed down.

"She won't kill people. She vowed not to hurt human beings, and now it's the same. She's just waiting to eat there. Zhou Feng should have been killed by Chen Shu. Maybe it was Qin Changlu. In short, he was one of them, and Bai Ruolin was their accomplice. Probably the three of them planned to kill Zhou Feng on this trip. Chen Shu first trapped him with a cultural relic stone tablet, and Bai Ruolin showed great interest again. Qin Changlu competed with him again, and then Bai Ruolin said to Zhou Feng when others were not paying attention: "Let's take a step earlier and find the stone tablet alone." Zhou Feng must have agreed immediately. Unfortunately, he secretly came to the appointed place early in the morning -- do you remember that there is a cliff not far from the place of the camp on the first day? I think the camping there was also arranged in advance. Bai Ruolin took the lead. As soon as you girls made trouble, everything went smoothly - Zhou Feng arrived there, of course Bai Ruolin would not appear, but Death was waiting. With him, he was pushed down the cliff and died. This incident would have been regarded as an accident: Zhou Feng rushed to the road in order to monopolize the stone tablet and fell to death, but she was here. Liu Di looked at the "Bai Ruolin" that she was still eating. "She ate the internal organs and put the rest of the body where you could see. As a result, as she wished, panic, palpitations and murder permeated among you -- no, she also did something. She created a mudslide to seal you, surrounded you, and then opened it. Mouth and wait.

The second one is Tang Shiya. The person who killed her should be Qin Changlu, so he was so scared when he saw her become Tang Shiya. As for the reason, it's killing people. Didn't she say that Tang Shiya was Zhou Feng's ex-girlfriend? She probably looked at some clues and suspected Chen Shu. When she went to Qin Changlu for help, she sent the sheep into the tiger's mouth.

The third is Bai Ruolin, probably killed by the two of them. Tang Shiya, who should have died, was not dead. Bai Ruolin was scared and wanted to confess everything, but she was also eliminated.

The fourth Wu Shangli, it seems that those two people are addicted to killing, below...

Zhang Qian was nervous by what he said and worried about Song Zhenlai, who was alone in the camp.

I don't know when Bai Ruolin stood in front of this mountain wall, reached out and pulled out the vines, and gently turned around and asked, "How am I better than the previous one?"

Zhang Qian found that she was close at hand and hurriedly buried her face in Liu Di's arms. Liu Di smiled and said, "I think the last one is better."

"Real?" She shook her body and turned into Tang Shiya's appearance. Suddenly, she sneered and asked, "Guess what I will look like underneath?"

"Do you really want me to say it?" Liu Di shrugged his shoulders, but his hand hugged Zhang Qian tightly.

"You can go at any time." She smiled sweetly, "But if you try to take away any 'food'..." With her hand crossed the stone wall and pressed it on Zhang Qian's neck. Zhang Qian felt as if a cold and slippery object rolled up her throat, and the feeling of fear and suffocation surged up together. She felt that Liu Di stretched out her hand and then fell into a coma.

Liu Di grabbed Tang Shiya's wrist.

"I have known you for more than 200 years, and you dare to take the initiative to touch me for the first time." Tang Shiya giggled and gently slid out of Liu's grasp. Guess what will happen in the camp? I'm looking forward to it." After saying that, he turned around and took a few steps and disappeared out of thin air.

Liu Di came out of the mountain wall with Zhang Qian in his arms, looked up at the dark clouds and began to roll in the sky again, and sighed gently. Now, not to mention Zhang Qian, it is not easy to leave even if he wants to leave.

I can only wait for tomorrow...

When Zhang Qian woke up, the sun was shining, and it was almost noon. As soon as Song Zhen saw her wake up, he hugged her and cried, "Cyan, you're going to scare me to death! You scared me to death! When Liu Di hugged you back, I thought you would die, woo..."

"I..." Zhang Qian propped up her body with her arm and tried to recall what happened before she fainted. Her eyes crossed the camp: Chen Shu and Qin Changlu sat side by side, a little farther away, and Tang Shiya snuggled up to Liu Di and seemed to fall asleep. And she lay by the tent, and Song Zhen stayed by her side. Six people divided into three groups and kept a distance from each other.

"Wu Shangli...Bai Ruolin..." Zhang Qian vaguely remembered something, but as long as she wanted to think about it further, her headache seemed to crack. She moaned and lay back powerlessly. Bai Ruolin has never come back, and Wu Shangli has disappeared. Song Zhen said in a low voice.

Coupled with Zhang Qian's coma, this is the reason why she didn't rush today.

When Liu Di came back with Zhang Qian in a coma, no one asked why, just like Bai Ruolin and Wu Shangli did not come back, and no one proposed to look for it. Everyone sat silently, as if waiting for something to happen.

The time of silence and waiting seemed to be very slow, and it seemed to pass very quickly. Unconsciously, the sky gradually darkened.

"Is it going to rain again?" Zhang Qian's mind has not recovered. She lay there and looked up at the sky and muttered to herself.

"Yes, it's going to rain again." Song Zhen patted her hand and said, "As long as it gets dark, it will rain."

But no one planned to go back to the tent to shelter from the rain and still sat like that.

"Land, I'm hungry." Tang Shiya said delicately to Liu.

Liu Di stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead and said with a smile, "You eat me."

"I hate it." Tang Shiya waved her hand and stood up. She seemed to plan to get something to eat by herself, looked around, and walked to Qin Changlu intentionally or unintentionally.

"What are you going to do!" Qin Changlu ran away with a strange scream and pointed to Tang Shiya.

"Cooking, I'm hungry if you're not hungry." Tang Shiya glanced at him and picked up the lighter from where he was sitting just now.

"What are you at the bottom?" Qin Changlu suddenly shouted, pulling Tang Shiya's arm hard and shouted strangely, "I don't care what you are, I'm not afraid! I will kill you, and I will kill you!" After saying that, he stuck Tang Shiya's neck fiercely and still roared, "Kill you! Kill you!"

"What do you do! Are you crazy?" Chen Shu rushed over and wanted to separate them.

"Don't worry about me! I'm going to kill her monster! I will definitely kill her this time!" The blue veins on Qin Changlu's face burst out and viciously increased his strength.

"Bang!" Chen Shu slapped him in the face and taught him a lesson, "Calm down, stop it."

"Calm down? Hahahaha," Qin Changlu laughed wildly, and he pushed away Tang Shiya and walked towards Chen Shu. Tang Shiya fell to the ground and seemed unable to struggle for a moment, but a smile appeared at the corners of her mouth and licked her lips. Qin Changlu forced Chen Shu, pointed to his nose and said, "Are you telling me to calm down? Calm down and show me first! Aren't you shaking all over now? Aren't you afraid to die?"

"Only when we calm down can we hope to go out!"

"Go out! Hahaha, we can't go out, we can't go out! Look, Zhou Feng, Wu Shangli, Bai Ruolin and Tang Shiya are all here. They won't let us go out!"

"Sure enough, you killed them!" Song Zhen suddenly stood up and pointed to Chen Shu and Qin Changlu. Chen Shu's eyes met her and almost sparked. I have known for a long time that you are dealing with other women. That person is Bai Ruolin, right? Because of your position, Qin Changlu was taken away by Zhou Feng because of the scheduled job after graduation. Bai Ruolin was entangled emotionally and money, so the three of you immediately planned to kill him together!" Song Zhen said word by word, "Then Bai Ruolin, she probably got in the way of your business, so she wants to kill her. What about Wu Shangli? Did he see something he shouldn't have seen, so he also died!"

"Hahahaha, and you! And you!" Qin Changlu seemed to be crazy and rushed to Tang Shiya again.

Chen Shu's face was calm and forced Song Zhen step by step. Song Zhen was fearless, but took a few steps.

"I told you before, women don't be too smart."

"If I were smart, I wouldn't have loved a scum like you!" Song Zhen did not give in.

Chen Shu has also been in panic for a few days, but he did not lose his mind like Qin Changlu, and carefully thought about how to control all this in his own hands. If there is no one alive... He looks at Song Zhen, Zhang Qian, Tang Shiya and Liu Di. The three women are easy to deal with, but only Liu Di...

Song Zhen had already guessed his plan, looked up at him with his chin, and breathed heavily.

A gust of wind rushed by, Chen Shu flashed to the side in time, and a long wound was still scratched on his left arm.

Qin Changlu was holding a Swiss army knife in his hand and was pressing towards him, still saying, "Go to hell! Go to hell! It's enough for me to live alone." Tang Shiya lay motionless on the ground behind him.

It turned out that he was not the only one who had this idea. Chen Shu slowly retreated and thought about how to deal with this madman. It was enough for him to survive.

"Soong Zhen, Song Zhen!" Zhang Qian struggled to stand up to pull back her friend, but her limbs had no strength at all. Liu Di came to her side and gently put his hand on the forehead of the knife. The warmth came through the palm of his hand, and Zhang Qian actually felt much better in an instant.

"Are you feeling better? We should go." Liu took her hand and said.

"Go?"

With a huge thunder, the rain suddenly covered the earth. In the thunderstorm, Chen Shu and Qin Changlu were entangled, with an extremely ferocious look on their faces. Seeing their expression in the lightning, Zhang Qian's memory suddenly woke up and couldn't help screaming. At the same time, she saw that Tang Shiya had got up and stood aside with a smile on her face, waiting for the result she wanted.

In an instant, the sky lit up, as if the thick clouds had been torn, and even Tang Shiya looked up a few times.

"Go!" Liu Di grabbed Zhang Qian, pulled her and left. Zhang Qian ran a few steps with him and suddenly shouted, "Song Zhen! And Song Zhen!" He broke away from Liu Di, turned around and ran to Song Zhen, who was in the rain, and took her to walk together.

Liu stamped his foot, and he was even more uncertain about a person, but he also knew that Zhang Qian would never leave his friend. He came over a few steps, pulled one with one hand, and ran to the forest.

Running in the heavy rain, the eyes of the rain flowing in are painful and astringent. I can't see the scene in front of me at all. I don't know where I'm running to. I can only see the white rain curtain, and I can only hear the sound of rain, my breathing and heartbeat... The light flashed in front of me, constantly shaking, getting closer and closer. Until the two headlights of the car were identified.

Car? How can there be a car on this mountain that is difficult to walk?

The car is a very ordinary red Santana, washed very clean by the rain. There is also a "hat" with the word "rental" on the roof, and there is also an "empty car" light in the front window with yellow light.

"A get in the car." Not allowing them to think too much, Liu Di pushed them into the car and quickly sat in the front seat.

The driver pressed the meter, and the car rushed out like an arrow. In this mountain forest, it was driving as fast as the highway. Except for the rain hitting the window and the sound of the wipers scraping back and forth, the car was still quiet. Outside the window, even if the lights are illuminated, you can only see a world of rain. Lightning lights up in the sky from time to time, and the thunder rolls like chasing the car.

The car suddenly stopped.

A woman slowly walked in front of the headlights.

"Tang Shiya." Zhang Qian and Song Zhen both felt the cold and leaned against each other.

Liu Di opened the door and walked down to her. In the sound of rain, his lazy voice came very clearly: "There are six of eight people left, a lot. Don't be so greedy, okay?"

"I said you could leave at any time, but only you." Tang Shiya looked at him with her head on one side.

The driver who had been driving silently also walked down and stood beside Liu Di. He raised his hand and slowly showed a single knife.

Zhang Qian suddenly found that the headlights projected Liu Di's shadow on the rain curtain, which turned out to be the image of long hair and sharp claws growing at the front end of his arms, constantly twisting in the rain curtain, and the driver beside him had no shadow at all.

A red shadow inserted between them. The shadow was fiery red, and the appearance of a bird, as if even the rain curtain could evaporate, vibrating its wings between Liu Di and the driver, so that there was a fog in the rain.

"At the right moment, there is no need to break the fish and the net." Liu Di said slowly, "We have known each other for so long. Don't give us any face."

Tang Shiyas thinking for a while and suddenly smiled: "Well, see you in ten years. Don't forget me." After saying that, she waved her hand and disappeared into the rain.

When Liu Di and the driver returned to the car, Zhang Qian obviously heard them breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.

"You can go back." Liu Di turned around and looked at Zhang Qian gently. His voice was a little hoarse, "I'll send you back now."

Zhang Qian opened her eyes and moaned in a low voice.

"Cyan, you're awake! Great!" Song Zhen jumped over all of a sudden. She touched Zhang Qian's head with one hand, pressed one hand on her head, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, it's not burning anymore."

"Where am I?" Zhang Qian looked at it weakly.

"Doormitory, otherwise where is it?" Song Zhen wiped her sweat with a hot towel and said, "You slept for seven days during the seven-day holiday. Everyone in the dormitory has gone. I can't contact your family. I'm so anxious."

"Really..." Zhang Qian remembered that she had a fever the day before the holiday, but she didn't expect to be ill for seven days. Her mind was dizzy and she couldn't think about anything. For a moment, she remembered something, "Aren't you going to climb the mountain? Is it because I didn't go?"

"What mountain are you climbing," Song Zhen said with his hands, "we broke up. He and Bai Ruolin walked together. I saw it with my own eyes. I slapped him in the face and asked them to go hiking. For a moment, her voice lowered again and looked out of the window and said, "Fortunately, I didn't go. You know, it has been raining these days. There has been a mudslide on Kaiming Mountain, and the road is blocked. I don't know how the people on the mountain are organizing the rescue."

"Mudslide." This word touched Zhang Qian, who seemed to have had such a nightmare during her illness, a dream of corpses, mudslides, rainstorms and death. There was another person in the dream, only remembering that he had a pair of warm hands...

Zhang Qian sat up and shook her drowsy head hard. The sky outside the window was covered with dark clouds, as if it was going to rain.
