its 042: Ghost Story
Xizhao Mountain is a big mountain, which is much bigger than Longyin Mountain. If you walk, it is about five and a half days away from Longyin Mountain, but because Chengxing and Mulan race every day, the time has been reduced to five days.
In the evening of that day, four people came to the foot of the mountain. After a good rest, several boys set up tents, and Mulan set up a bonfire to boil water and dry food.
You Liang, a glutton, has been studying hunting skills these days. He finally got a harvest tonight. He caught a hare with a small trap made by himself. Mulan caught a few fish in the mountain stream and made them together. It was a good dinner.
Looking at Mulan cooking fish on the fire, You Liang was roasting a rabbit. Kaobu City shook his head and commanded this and that. Cheng Xing suddenly had a warm feeling, as if he was going out for an outing with his classmates. He suddenly regretted that he was in a hurry and didn't bring a stringed organ, otherwise he would play a song at this time, which was more emotional.
I couldn't help sighing that many things in my life were like this, just because of a burst of loss at that time, which led to the loss of many good things later.
He couldn't help laughing: You are an ass, thinking about life so philosophically? What's the thirteenth? Let's think about the big event of catching birds first. Don't go back empty-handed and lose a lot of people.
The sky gradually darkened, and the firelight became brighter. Kaobu City was still pointing out the country and criticizing Mulan and Youliang's craftsmanship. Youliang was very impatient about this. He suddenly lowered his voice and said to Kaobu City very mysteriously, "Xiaocheng, have you heard the legend of the jungle ghost?"
"What's the jungle?" Kaobu City was stunned.
"Ghost. The legend of the ghost who wanders in the jungle and slowly eats the traveler after falling asleep. You Liang said in a hoarse voice, "Have you ever heard of it?"
"No." At this time, Kaobu City realized that the surroundings had fallen into darkness and couldn't help trembling. Obviously, he was a little scared, but he couldn't help but be curious. So... what kind of legend is that?"
"Legend has it that there are often some people who are lost in the jungle, turn around and can't get out, and finally starve to death in the jungle." You Liang tried to make his voice very ethereal, and this ethereal sound in the dark night has a creepy effect. After they died, they couldn't leave. They wandered in the jungle with a strong sense of hunger. When they met travelers, they would quietly follow them and keep shouting behind them: Help me, I'm so hungry..."
"And then?" Kaobu City trembled and couldn't help leaning against the fire.
"Then, they will follow you all the way, when you fall asleep in the wild..." You Liang smiled gloomyly and suddenly exclaimed, "Xiaocheng, what's behind you?"
"Ah!" Kaobu City was so scared that he almost jumped into the fire and fell to the ground with his head in his arms: "Help!"
You Liang's laughter sounded, and the ground shook, which shocked the birds in the forest.
"Get out of here, didn't you deliberately scare me?" Kaobu City struggled to get up, with tears of fear in his eyes. He roared at You Liang. You Liang just laughed.
"Quiet!" At this time, Cheng Xingxing suddenly stretched out his hand, motioned the two to stop, and then listened carefully. From now on, he faintly heard something nearby, but he couldn't hear it. After the two guys closed their mouths, there was only the crackling sound of fire devouring firewood, the boiling sound of water, and the hiss of oil dripping from the roast hare to the fire.
In addition to these three sounds, there is another faint sound, which is ethereal and difficult to detect. At this time, all four people heard it and couldn't help pricking up their ears to listen together.
"Help me..."
They finally heard the sound clearly at the same time, and then at the same time, they were scared into a cold sweat.
"No, really... really..." Kaobucheng couldn't speak clearly, and his body trembling.
"I'm kidding, I'm just kidding. How is that possible?" You Liang was also fighting with his teeth. He didn't expect that he was so awesome that he could make up a ghost story casually.
"Help me..."
The voice was still ringing intermittently. It seemed that in a bush of grass in the dark not far away, Cheng Xing stood up boldly, picked up half-burned long firewood as a torch, and slowly walked over.
Kaobu City has been paralyzed, and You Liang also looks like he will choke at any time. No matter how cowardly he is, he can't let Mulan go there, can he? So it was like a husband who was obviously afraid of cockroaches, but in front of his screaming wife and children, he still calmly raised his palm and slapped Xiaoqiang. Although Cheng Xingxing's face was as white as paper, he still stared and walked over.
Such a heroic feat deserves the attention of the three people, but I didn't expect that he only took a few steps and scared him to lie down with a squeak. As a result, the hero turned into a big bear, too dog, too bear.
"I'll go." Mulan held a steel knife in one hand and a firewood in the other, and the door of her tiger charm slowly closed behind her. Cheng Xingxing grinned for a while: It turned out to be the voice of the door of the tiger charm. It's not easy to be brave once. Xiaolan, you are too weak...
Mulan was also very scared. She boldly took a few steps forward, pricked her ears to listen for a while, and then tentatively took a step out. Suddenly there was a sound in the grass next to her, and a dark shadow appeared. She shouted with fear. The knife danced wildly, and the person retreated quickly. As a result, she tripped and fell to the ground. The torch flew out, and the knife flew out.
"No, no!" She was so scared that she made the other three people sweat, and half of the horror was swept away.
"Hey, little wood, that's just a big forest rat." You Liang said with a grin. If it hadn't been for the "ghost" peeping around, he would have laughed.
Mulan blushed for a while and got up. As soon as she picked up the steel knife, she heard a squeak. She was so scared that she shivered and turned around and danced a knife flower: "Who!?"
"Don't be afraid, it's the door." Cheng Xingxing stood there, and the broken wooden door next to him slowly opened. This guy grinned and thought to himself: This is called a newspaper for a newspaper. You scared me to lie down just now, and now I scare you to shiver. Let's be a draw.
"Let me do it." As Cheng Xingxing said, he looked into the door. Long Lao walked out with small steps and secretly stared at him. It seemed that he blamed him for calling himself out. It was really inhumane.
Cheng Xingxing grinned and whispered beside the old man, "Mr. Long, there are a lot of adults. Don't be surprised. It's all up to you."
Long Lao didn't make a sound. He straightened his waist and suddenly rushed into the pile of grass in front of him. After looking for a moment in the grass, he came out with a 17- or 18-year-old teenager. After throwing it next to the bonfire, he walked back to the door by himself and closed the door.
"It's a human." You Liang said, "I'm telling you, how can the ghost story come true?"
"Brother Feiliang, did you deliberately make up that story to scare me?" Kaobucheng's face was gloomy, like a fierce ghost, "You wait, revenge, you will repay sooner or later."
"He seems to be injured." When Mulan saw that the other party was a human, she was timid and hurried to check. Cheng Xingxing also came over and looked at the teenager with the firelight.
The teenager is average-looking, with short hair, wearing ordinary linen clothes, bruises on his face, blood on the corners of his mouth, and mud on his clothes. It seems that he was beaten violently.
"In the barren mountains, 80% of them have been robbed." You Liang made an analysis next to him.
"The problem is that he ran to this kind of barren mountains to give people a chance to grab it. Is it for Mao?" Kaobu City continued to ask questions.
Take a picture of Conan? Take a picture of Jin Tianyi? Do you want to shoot a teenager with black charcoal? Of course, you can't say all kinds of strange ideas in Cheng Xingxing's heart. I patted the teenager's face twice, didn't wake up, and tried harder, didn't wake up. Just as I wanted to work harder, I suddenly thought that this was a slap in the face. Don't beat him to death again.
So he immediately pinched the people. He had seen this trick countless times on TV, and every time it was immediate. As a result, it was not easy for him to use. He was cruel and strengthened his strength, and the teenager woke up with a "Ouch".
The first sentence is: "I'm so hungry..."
"I'll go!" Kao Bucheng was so scared that he sweated and unconsciously took a step back. He stared at You Liang. You Liang looked innocent and spread out his hands to show that he had not partnered with the teenager.
"Dry food, fish soup, rabbit legs!" Mulan decisively commanded Kaobu City, and then commanded You Liang: "Drug bag, kettle, cotton bag!"
The two guys acted immediately. In a moment, Mulan got everything she wanted. She soaked cotton with water and wiped the teenager's wound, and then took out the trauma medicine from the medicine bag and drugged him. However, the teenager obviously cared more about the three things to eat, and his eyes kept drifting over there. After Mulan completed the simple trauma treatment, less Nian actually jumped up, grabbing the dry food in one hand, the rabbit's leg in the other, and stuffing it desperately into his mouth.
After a while, he solved these two kinds of food. He picked up the bowl again and drank all the fish soup in a few bites. Only then did everyone understand that the injury was full of floating clouds, and the teenager was just hungry and powerless.
"I'm full." Putting down the bowl, the teenager nodded expressionlessly. Although the taste is average, it can be eaten if it is simply used to fill the stomach.
"You son of a bitch, don't know how to write the word "retribution!" Mulan was immediately angry. If it hadn't been for the star, he would have punched the teenager to lie down again.
"I got such a comment on my crispy and tender roasted rabbit legs?" You Liang was also angry and bit another rabbit's leg angrily: "It's so fragrant that it can't be more fragrant."
"You don't know anything about cooking!" The teenager shook his head and sighed, looking desperate for them. I can teach you a lesson when I have a chance."
"Hey, we saved your life." Cheng Xingxing grinned and didn't know what expression to make.
"Oh, thank you." The teenager nodded indifferently, "very much."
"What?" The three of them spoke with one voice.
"I mean thank you very much." The teenager stood up and said, "It's getting late. I should go. There are mountain thieves on the mountain ahead. It's not peaceful. Be careful. If you are killed, I don't have time to bury you.
"You son of a bitch, I'll kill you!" This time, the star was also angry, and Mulan stopped him.
"Who are you?" Mulan stared at the teenager and asked, "Why did he fall here with injuries?"
"It's so stupid. I said that there was a mountain thief in front of me. I know it with my buttocks. I must have been attacked by a mountain thief." The teenager glanced at Mulan with a disdainful face.
"Let's kill him and eat meat together." Mulan's eyes were fierce and he said to Cheng Mingxing. Cheng Xingxing grinned: "Okay."
