Chapter 37: Conspiracy at Night
After I said that, I looked at Professor Taylor and several students behind him, and then turned to the magic stick and the monkey and said, "Well, since Professor Taylor and they are back, let's camp." After saying that, several people walked towards the camp. When passing by the stone house where the woman's grave was buried, Professor Taylor looked inside suspiciously. Of course, he couldn't find anything, so he followed us back to the camp.
At this time, it is already a little dark. Although it is already past four o'clock in the afternoon, it is not yet time for the sun to set in the outside world, but there are tall mountains such as snowy mountains blocking the sun, so it is dark much earlier than outside. Then we lit a bonfire and began to prepare dinner.
Over the past ten days, we have basically eaten the food brought in the bag, and there is almost nothing left, but the good thing is that there are countless wild animals and edible wild vegetables in the mountains, so we don't have to worry about nothing to eat. Well, we ate shan chicken and drank clear spring water that night.
After dinner, everyone sat by the bonfire and chatted, but at this time, it seemed that under the sign of Professor Taylor, the five of them were on fire again and were discussing something in a low voice not far from us. At this time, the doctor came to me and said, "Wen Long, don't you think these people are a little abnormal now?" I looked at them and then smiled and said, "Maybe we are discussing tomorrow's plan."
The doctor smiled and shook his head and said, "I don't think it's that simple." After saying that, the doctor broke the dry firewood on one side and put it into the bonfire. At this time, the bonfire suppressed the fire because of the newly added firewood, and the flames became smaller. In fact, they don't care about cleaning up and inspecting such things tomorrow. They can completely discuss it here. Why do they have to open the way? Isn't this suspicious? The doctor said.
I know what the doctor means, but it doesn't mean that it's really suspicious. Maybe they really want to hide something from us, but even if there is something, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with us, right? I think so. Then the magic stick said beside me, "Yes, the doctor is right. If there is nothing to do, why do you have to discuss it separately? Is there really something to hide from us? And have you ever thought about the thing that disappeared in the skull's mouth for no reason this afternoon?
After such a reminder from the magic stick, I nodded and said, "You're right, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with us, right?" The monkey next to him smiled and said, "Brother Long, why did your vigilance fade so much after being discharged from the army? Have you forgotten? This is our Chinese cultural relic. Let some foreigners take it, isn't it against the law? Besides, they have to avoid us so carefully. If it really has nothing to do with us, are they worth avoiding?
The monkey's words made me suddenly realize, and then said, "You are right. If it really has nothing to do with us, there is no need to avoid us. Since they avoid us, they must have an intention with us. Even if it is not for us, they are also interested in something here, and it is not like letting We know that in this case, we must always be careful not to let these golden monsters fool us.
"Yes, this is Brother Long." The monkey patted me on the shoulder happily. I smiled and looked at the place where their people gathered. Because their voices were very low, we couldn't hear what they were saying at all. I simply responded to the changes to see what tricks they wanted to play. Anyway, I must follow them tomorrow and see them. What do you want to do?
After I made up my mind, I whispered my plan to several people, and several people agreed, and Michiko had already returned to the tent to rest. It seemed that she was very tired today. Just then, Professor Taylor came to me and smiled at me gently, "Mr. Wenlong, why haven't you rested yet?"
At this time, I don't think Professor Taylor is a good person, especially his smile always feels treacherous. I quickly smiled and said, "It's nothing. I can't sleep so early. Besides, haven't you been busy all day? Relatively speaking, you are much more tired than us. Professor Taylor smiled dryly and nodded and said, "Yes, but I can't bear to think of you for so long, especially you, to protect our theory and suffer so much."
I was stunned. At this time, Professor Taylor's words have been audible, but I felt that there was a very unusual conspiracy in such words, and then smiled gently, "Where, I'm not rich*. Besides, I'm also happy that you have come here safely to investigate, waiting for everything. It's all over. Let's go back early. I don't want to stay in such a damn place for too long.
Professor Taylor nodded and then said, "Yes, I don't want to go back early, but there are too many things here. I'm afraid it won't be over for a month or two, so I have a suggestion, that is, from today on, we big guys will take turns to work the night shift. After all, we always let you We are also sorry to be guards. You can have a good night's sleep and let them take turns to guard.
After Professor Taylor finished speaking, I was stunned. I didn't say anything too late, but after entering here, I proposed to take turns to work the night shift. Since you know we are very tired, why did you do it earlier? Why didn't you say it last night? When I was outside, I didn't see anyone from you who proposed to come to the vigil. It seems that these golden retrievers are afraid to take action tonight. Now that this condition is put forward, I'm afraid they want to do something behind our back.
I quickly smiled and said, "Yes, no problem. To be honest, in fact, I have been tired for a long time. To be honest, the injury on my leg has not healed yet. I have encountered so many situations during this period. Now I have been overwhelmed. If you hadn't always mentioned it, I'm afraid I would have said it, but it's just a little bad. Meaning." Professor Taylor waved his hand and said, "Well, you have saved us many times. If I still can't see this, haven't I really become a worldless person?"
I said thank you several times, and then stood up and stretched out and said, "Well, in that case, please, Professor Taylor. Let's go back to rest first and say thank you for me." Professor Taylor shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't worry, if there is any danger, we will shout out." I nodded and turned to walk towards my tent.
I stood up. Of course, the doctors and others also stood up and walked towards their respective tents. I gave them a wink while Professor Taylor was not paying attention and motioned them to be careful. Several people secretly understood. After returning to the tent, I got into the sleeping bag and began to sleep on vacation for a long time. Several people exaggerated and snored loudly for fear that others would not know that he had fallen asleep.
Then we did this. At about 11 p.m., we heard that Professor Taylor, who had already entered the tent to sleep, had got up and said something in English. The voice was very soft, and I also began to listen carefully. In a short time, footsteps sounded next to my tent, and then someone gently got into my tent and checked it carefully. Maybe it was certain that I had fallen asleep before I went out.
I saw a back through the faint light outside the tent. The person who entered my Zhang Feng should be the girl named Sierra. Shortly after Sierra got out of my tent, I heard the complicated footsteps of several people, and then heard the slight impact of some iron or something. As I slowly walked away, I climbed out of the tent gently. Professor Taylor and several people seemed to carry backpacks and walk down the mountain while taking advantage of the moonlight.
Tonight's moon is very big, but it emits a strange red light, which makes the earth full of red, but this color makes me see the actions of several people more clearly, because they are basically wearing light yellow sportswear, which is very easy to recognize under this light. Then I got out of the tent and saw that the monkey, the doctor and the magic stick were already ready to go.
I smiled. It seemed that these people had not slept all the time, just waiting for this moment, and the magic stick said, "Damn it, the feeling of snoring without falling asleep is really annoying to me, which makes my voice and nose almost be fucking useless." The monkey smiled and said, "You deserve it. Who let you snore so loudly for fear that others don't know you're asleep." The stick curled its lips and said, "Isn't it all because of you? Who told you that I usually snore when I sleep, and the sound is very loud? If I don't make it louder, will they believe that I'm asleep?
I smiled and said, "Oi, don't say anything. If you don't catch up, I'm afraid these people will go far away." Several people nodded, and then I went to Michiko's tent and woke her up softly. Michiko was sleepy and didn't understand why I woke him up. He thought it was going to be a vigil. Just as he wanted to get up, I asked him to lie down and simply told her about it. Then I gave her the pistol I carried with me to prevent it. Then we took advantage of the moonlight, and the four of us walked down the mountain full of strange red
