Chapter Twenty-Eight: Up the Mountain
The next day, Wang Zhengyang came to a remote town in H City according to the address given by Xing Ming. Then he couldn't find his way, and navigation was useless.
He had no choice but to find a place to park the car and walk, because there was no way to drive on the roads in this place, and they were all muddy paths.
Wang Zhengyang really didn't expect that as a second-tier city at h time, there was such a dilapidated town, how to say it, most of the towns are red brick houses, and some are even mud-built houses, Wang Zhengyang walked in the town, feeling like returning to the days when he lived in his grandparents when he was a child.
After walking for a while, Wang Zhengyang came to a piece of farmland, and the people in this town were still living by farming. It was around twelve o'clock in the afternoon, and it was the hottest time, and there were not many people working in the fields anymore. Wang Zhengyang said to the tanned uncle in front of him, who was exposed to the sun: "Uncle, do you know where Master Zhao Chuanxi lives?"
The uncle put down the hammer in his hand and looked at Wang Zhengyang, and said in a rich hometown dialect: "What?"
"Zhao Chuanxi, Master Zhao. Wang Zhengyang shouted again.
"Are you talking about Master Zhao, is it Master Zhao who treats the people of our village?" the uncle replied.
Wang Zhengyang said curiously, it seems that Master Zhao usually comes to this town to treat the villagers, a good person. Thinking about it, Wang Zhengyang hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, it's him, I'm looking for him, uncle, do you know where he lives?"
"Are you here to see my Master Zhao?" the uncle asked.
“...... Yes. Wang Zhengyang had to say something in order to save trouble.
Uncle: "Then you come over early tomorrow, alas, it's too late today." ”
Wang Zhengyang was puzzled, why was it too late at noon, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle, what's the matter?" Did Master Zhao go out?"
The uncle shook his head: "It's not Di, the master lives at the foot of the mountain in front, if you want to see him, you have to climb a mountain, and it will take seven or eight hours to climb over." If you're not in a hurry, just wait two days and come back, and the master will come to us in two or three days to see us. ”
Wang Zhengyang looked at the mountain that the uncle pointed to, it was a bit high, and the trees were relatively dense, I don't know if there are any wild beasts or anything in the mountain.
Wang Zhengyang: "Is seven or eight hours that long? Uncle, then I'll leave now, won't I arrive at the place at eight or nine o'clock in the evening? ”
The uncle listened to Wang Zhengyang's words and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Little baby, you must not do it... This mountain will eat people at night, you must not rush at night, if you are really in a hurry, I will take you there next morning. ”
Wang Zhengyang was very moved when he heard his uncle's words, look, this is a simple rural person, and he is willing to spend seven or eight hours taking me to find someone without asking me who I am. It's just that he also wondered why the people in the town didn't call the police if there was a wild beast? Could it be that the mountain is still a nature reserve?
Uncle still waved his hand. "It's not a drop, it's not a drop, there's something dirty on the mountain! You can't go to the road at night, every year there are people here who rush at night and then go missing, and the police can't find anyone during the day... Our old woman said that they had been lured back to the underworld by ghosts. ”
Wang Zhengyang: "......" Looking at the uncle's frightened face, Wang Zhengyang felt that there might really be something on the mountain. So he said to the uncle.
"Got it, uncle, then I'll go back tomorrow morning. He thanked his uncle and left. He walked around the town and found nothing suspicious, indicating that there were no ghosts in the town.
After thinking about it, Wang Zhengyang decided to go to Master Zhao alone, but he didn't believe much in ghosts luring people to the underworld... If there really is, it's just a few unjust souls, and he now has an inexplicable confidence in the golden light on his body, which is simply a ghost nemesis!
So he took his backpack, which contained some food, water and props, and embarked on the road of climbing the mountain alone, not to mention that the trees on the mountain grew luxuriantly because there was no one cutting down, Wang Zhengyang did not feel the heat at all, but felt a little shade. The view is also very nice.
Walking and walking, before I knew it, I walked for four or five hours... Dragging the golden light, Wang Zhengyang didn't feel tired at all, and looked at his position, he was almost at the top of the mountain, and he was now on a relatively large flat land.
After thinking about it, he decided to have a meal first... Tired but not tired but really hungry, I don't know why he has a lot of food during this time, when Bai Xiaoxiao was at home, a rice cooker was no longer enough for the three of them to eat, which made Wang Zhengyang very embarrassed, he also specially bought a big rice cooker from the supermarket, and the big rice cooker was just the amount of food for three people a day, and the four eyes said that he was reincarnated as a starving ghost, and he was embarrassed to refute.
Wang Zhengyang found a relatively clean place to sit down and took out the compressed biscuits in the bag, since the amount of food became larger, Wang Zhengyang bought a box of compressed biscuits in his trunk, and ate them whenever he was hungry.
Watching the sun slowly go down, Wang Zhengyang didn't care, he still wanted to know what was going on on this mountain.
After eating, the sun went down, the forest became quiet, there were some cicadas singing during the day, but at night there was no sound, and the sky quickly darkened...
Wang Zhengyang took out the flashlight in his bag and walked slowly towards the mountain road, there is almost nothing to see on the mountain without a flashlight without a street lamp, and Wang Zhengyang can only see three or five meters away even if he uses a flashlight.
He walked slowly, and after walking for almost an hour, he found that there was fog on the mountain, and the flashlight, which had been extremely low-visibility, was now even more effective. It seemed that he could only see anything at arm's length.
Wang Zhengyang stopped, because he didn't know where to go now, and he couldn't see the road at all... He was going to wait for the fog to clear before leaving... After thinking about it carefully, he had walked for almost six hours, and it stands to reason that he should be almost at the top of the mountain. It will take another hour to almost get to Master Zhao's house.
After waiting for a long time, Wang Zhengyang didn't see the fog dissipate, there was no way, he decided to continue walking, the sky began to be a little cold, I don't know why Wang Zhengyang felt that the temperature dropped a little fast. As he walked, Wang Zhengyang saw something familiar, a bag of compressed biscuits that he had eaten.
"What's the situation, have I been walking around in place for half a day?" Wang Zhengyang was a little aggrieved, you said that if something dirty came out, he also admitted it, but now he is lost, what should I do? I knew that it was better to rest for one night and let my uncle give him a trip.
I can't help it, I have to keep walking if I get lost... He shook the flashlight and walked carelessly, feeling like he was giving up on himself, he was lost anyway, it didn't matter. Suddenly, under the illumination of the flashlight, he saw a pale and half-rotten face, and he quickly shone the flashlight on it, but there was nothing.
He took the flashlight and shone it around, and found that there was still nothing, wondering if he was wrong, and continued to walk forward, but accidentally tripped over something, and the flashlight fell forward...
I thought it was a tree trunk, but when Wang Zhengyang touched it, he found that it was actually a slimy arm, so he hurriedly threw the arm away and ran towards the bright light of the flashlight.
But he found something in the dark that picked up his flashlight, and he was also running, running at a speed similar to his own, and when Wang Zhengyang stopped, the flashlight also stopped. It was as if he was waiting for him to pass.
Wang Zhengyang: "......" Ordinary people may have been so frightened that they couldn't move, after all, they couldn't see anything in the dark, only a moving flashlight, and there was no sound. But Wang Zhengyang is not an ordinary person... All he could think about at the moment was to grab the thing that had robbed him of his flashlight and beat him up. So he began to chase after the light source.
Wang Zhengyang found that he was running faster and faster, faster and faster... Only then did he realize that he was still wearing the Boots of Swift Walking, and now he was enjoying the speed bonus, but he sadly found that he had not caught up with the guy with the flashlight in the dark.
At this time, he thought that if he couldn't catch up, it didn't mean that he couldn't hit, and the things he took from Lao Zhang were not only this pair of shoes, so he took out a silver-white pistol from his bag and fired three shots in front of him, and then found that there was nothing, only the sound of gunfire echoed throughout the mountain.
Wang Zhengyang: "......" physical damage is ineffective, it does seem to be a ghost, after thinking about it, he took out a small silver-white pistol from his bag, this pistol Wang Zhengyang has not used it until now, in fact, there is no place to shoot this gun, it is a toy pistol from anywhere, and there is not even a place to reload!
"Lao Zhang and Xing Ming said that special props generally rely on the user's mental power, which means that I can shoot bullets as long as I focus on the gun, right? Wang Zhengyang thought about it, so he raised his gun and aimed at the top of the flashlight in front of him. His mental power was extremely concentrated, and slowly he felt a blue light appear on the head of the gun, and without thinking about it, he quickly pulled the trigger that couldn't be pulled at all!
Suddenly, there was a desolate screaming and wailing and hissing in front of me... The voices are male and female, old and young... In short, Wang Zhengyang felt as if this shot had hit dozens of people.
The flashlight in front of you began to fall ... Wang Zhengyang hurriedly went over to pick it up, and then he found some black sticky tissue on the flashlight.
"This thing can't be the blood stains of that ghost thing, right? ghosts also have blood stains?" Wang Zhengyang was directly puzzled, but adhering to the attitude of taking advantage of its illness to kill it, Wang Zhengyang chased it directly... There is such black viscous tissue everywhere along the way, which is very easy to track.
After chasing for more than ten minutes, Wang Zhengyang suddenly rushed out of the fog, feeling that the sky was not so dark, and the moonlight shone directly on the ground without the shade of the woods, Wang Zhengyang saw a lot of things clearly, and cold sweat remained...
In front of him was a fairly wide land, and the land was moist soil, and on this soil, Wang Zhengyang saw dozens of pairs of struggling hands stretched out from the soil, motionless...
Just when Wang Zhengyang wanted to turn around and go back, he saw a woman with a pale face with only half of her face, and the other half of her face was rotten, wearing a red wedding dress...
