Chapter 248: A Child in the Mountains and Forests
Feeling her dependence and trust in herself, Su Ri'an's heart seemed to be bursting with a flame.
The flame made his blood boil, and he instantly gave birth to endless courage.
Decidenatively swept the flashlight towards the darkness again, and this time, still like last time, I saw a black shadow.
"Do you want to come with me to find out who is deliberately scaring us?, or do you want to ignore him and continue up the mountain at our own pace?", Su Ri'an glanced at the person in his arms and discussed softly.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Lin Gesheng raised his head, looked into his eyes and replied: "Figure it out, otherwise you will still be cranky after you go back, and you will have endless fear of the darkness in the future, how can you walk at night......."
"You're right, then you count three more and we'll rush towards it!"
"Okay!1, 2, 3!".
The two of them rushed into the grass, and the flashlight illuminated the upper body of the black shadow at once.
A black shadow wearing a plastic mask and a black cotton jacket, about 1.4 meters away, whizzed around and ran into the distance.
At this time, both of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, judging from the form of the black shadow, at least they could be sure that the other party was a human.
Because both of them had practiced martial arts and were in good physical condition, they soon caught up with the black shadow.
Su Ri'an grabbed the black shadow's collar, shone a flashlight on its mask, and said fiercely: "What are you doing?!What have you been following us for?!".
The shadow didn't answer, but lowered its head and began to tremble.
"Take off the mask!", he added, still in a fierce tone.
"What are you trying to do with us?", Lin Gesheng noticed that the hands that were clenched tightly, it looked like they should be children's hands, and his tone was unconsciously gentle.
The shadow still didn't answer, and after a few seconds, a sobbing sound came from behind the mask.
Listening to the voice, it seems to be a little boy.
Su Ri'an glanced at Lin Gesheng suspiciously, and motioned for her to quietly take off his mask.
Lin Gesheng thought about it for a moment and shook his head at him.
Since the child is wearing a mask, it means that he doesn't want to be seen, and it would be too rude to take his mask without saying hello suddenly.
At this time, it will appear here, could it be the child of a staff member on the top of the mountain, who is naughty and mischievous to scare tourists?
"Don't be afraid, let's take you to your parents, okay?"
Who knew that as soon as he heard this, this black shadow suddenly frantically wanted to break free from Su Ri'an's hands.
Fortunately, he has been vigilant and still in control.
didn't expect his words to make the other party react so violently, Lin Gesheng was startled, and couldn't help but take two steps back, and his heart was beating wildly.
The black shadow writhed and became powerless, and suddenly began to cry, apparently frightened.
Su Ri'an didn't care about his emotions at this time, and pulled off the mask.
The light of the flashlight illuminated the little swarthy face with tear stains.
It looks like he's only eight or nine years old.
"Little friend, why don't you come home so late?", Lin Gesheng looked at the child who was bowing his head in surprise.
Unfortunately, she still didn't get a response.
"Could it be that he is deaf and mute? Or call the police? On this big night, the parents are too irresponsible, and they are running around in the mountains with such a young child, in case something happens......
After Su Ri'an finished speaking, he used a flashlight to shine on the child from top to bottom, and found that his clothes were shabby as if they hadn't been washed for several months.
No, no parent would let their children's clothes be worn like this......
Being shone like this, the child immediately shrank into a ball, eager to stuff his head into the padded jacket, and said in a very small voice: "Brother and sister, please let me go......."
"Can you speak?Little friend, what's wrong with you?Did you quarrel with your family?", Lin Gesheng squatted down, looked at him at eye level, and said softly.
"Please let me go......".
He didn't answer, just repeated.
"Then you tell my sister, what do you want to do with us all the time? After you answer, I'll let this big brother let you go, okay?"
After a brief silence, he replied with tears in his voice, "I just wanted to see if you would leave anything left......."
"Are you hungry, aren't you? Sister has something to eat here, is it okay for you?", Lin Gesheng took off his backpack, fortunately, the bag she was carrying was filled with biscuits, beef jerky, canned ham and vacuum-packed roast chicken.
After putting down the bag on the spot, Lin Gesheng took out two packets of beef jerky and a bag of roast chicken from inside and handed them over.
"I ...... No, I don't have the money ......".
Lin Gesheng obviously saw him peek at the food a few times, and also saw him secretly swallowing saliva, but what he heard was this sad refusal, and he couldn't help but tighten his throat: "If you don't want money, give it to you, take it and eat it."
"Take it and eat it~", Su Ri'an also felt a little sympathy for this little guy.
But the little figure still didn't want to reach out for something.
Lin Gesheng looked at the little face with a distressed expression, and after sighing, he directly put her backpack on the ground and pulled Su Ri'an's sleeve: "Let's go?"
After understanding what she meant, Su Ri'an also took off the bag on her body, side by side with her bag, and put the somewhat torn mask on the bag along with the flashlight on.
"These things are given to you, and they may be a little heavy, so if you can't hold them at once, divide them into several times."
After a few brief explanations, relying on the flashlight on the mobile phone, the two returned to the stone road hand in hand.
Although I removed the two bags, my body was a little lighter, but my mood was much heavier.
"I don't know how this kid came out to find food by himself at this time, is there no family...... Should we leave him some more money just now?", after walking out of a paragraph, Lin Gesheng began to regret it, regretting that the little food he gave just now didn't seem to have much effect......
Su Ri'an looked at the glimmer not far away, and turned his head to look at her: "I'm about to reach the top of the mountain, when we get to the top of the mountain, we can ask the staff here to find out about this child's situation, I think it shouldn't be the first time he has followed tourists to find food at night...... When you know the specific situation, you can decide how to help the most appropriate and effective."
"Well, what you said makes sense, then let's hurry up!", Lin Gesheng was anxious to know why this little boy had fallen to this point, and his speed under his feet couldn't help but speed up a lot.
The two met Xia Mo at a distance of 100 meters from the top of the mountain.
"Are you all right?!We have already arrived at the top of the mountain, and we have waited for a long time and have not seen you come up, and I thought that something had happened to you halfway, there is no signal in this mountain, and the phone cannot be called, and I can't contact you, but I scared a few of us enough, I asked Chen Qi to accompany them to wait on the top, and I was about to come down to find you by myself."
"We really encountered something on the way just now, let's go up and talk about it", Su Ri'an patted him on the shoulder, feeling a little moved.
