After listening to Lin Zhongxiang's narration, several Taiwanese media people chattered and talked about it -- their interest suddenly came again: the silent woods, the strange light of the sky, and the lonely forest hut on the edge of the woods, these elements were put together, and suddenly they had a very strange and terrifying flavor.

Ye Huilan took the initiative to ask, "So, Mr. Lin, can you take us to see your residence?"

Lin Zhongxiang said: "That's naturally no problem, but, Miss Ye, didn't you say before that this is just an ordinary natural phenomenon, isn't there anything to be surprised about?"

Ye Huilan's face was slightly red-she was naturally embarrassed to say that what she said just now was just nonsense. She replied vaguely: "Now it seems that our consideration is somewhat incorrect, Mr. Hayashi, the situation you mentioned is very special, this kind of natural phenomenon we have never encountered before, and it is very valuable for research! We feel that since we have been to Hakone, it is still necessary to go to the field to see it." ”

At that moment, everyone decided to follow Lin Zhongxiang to watch the scene. Xu Yan went into the house and called Zhu Youxiang, and then, this noise also alarmed Huang Xi, I heard that Xu Yan and they wanted to "explore the secret", and she was so active that she also shouted to go over together, and the result was that a huge group of people went out, so that the proprietress of the accommodation hotel probed out to see what they were doing.

Today coincides with good weather, blue skies, snow-white clouds, perfect for traveling.

Hakone is a very small city, and the streets are only so short - Xu Yan didn't realize it, the car had already driven out of the city, and the group soon arrived at Lin Zhongxiang's residence on the outskirts of the city.

Lin Zhongxiang's villa is located on the edge of the foothills on the outskirts of the city, and the villa is surrounded by forests, and the green woods slowly stretch along the foothills. There is also a stream flowing down from the mountains on the edge of the woods, and there is no end in sight.

Summer. It's supposed to be a nice summer retreat, but here it is. Xu Yan immediately had a strange feeling: it was too quiet here!

In the huge summer woods, I can't hear the sound of cicadas and insects, nor the chirping of birds, and the temperature has suddenly become colder, and the afternoon sun gives people a feeling of no heat - Xu Yan knows that this is not his illusion, because as soon as he got out of the car, Huang Xi frowned. She hugged her shoulder: "It seems to be a little cold." It's strange, why do I feel chills when I get out of the car?"

Several reporters from Taiwan also said that after getting off the bus, they did feel a little chilled.

Photographer Li Haibin confidently explained in an expert tone: "This, not surprisingly, there are many buildings in the center of the city, there are many popular activities, and the temperature is generally relatively high. The suburbs are less populated. There are few buildings, so the temperature in the suburbs is often seven or eight degrees cooler than in the urban areas. We had just come from the city and were used to the temperature in the city, so it was cold when we got here. ”

Li Haibin explained. All the beauties nodded: "I see~~"

Lin Zhongxiang couldn't help but say, "This, Mr. Li, I have always lived here. But it feels like it hasn't been so cold before. I stayed in the house and felt that the weather was cool and pleasant all the time. But since those strange things happened. It's just getting cold here. ”

Li Haibin was stunned for a moment, and then he nodded a little embarrassedly: "Is this the case? However, it has recently become winter, and the climate has become colder, this is normal climate change, this kind of thing, it is also possible-" Then, as if to get rid of this embarrassing scene, he said in a loud voice: "Mr. Lin, where did you see those strange scenes? Can you take us over to take a look?"

"Oh, of course, please come with me. Lin Zhongxiang said, leading everyone forward. They waded through the hot spring stream that flowed down the mountain and followed a forest path all the way to the foothills.

Along the way, Lin Zhongxiang introduced to everyone: on weekdays, he walks and exercises along this trail up the mountain, but since there is a strange scene in the mountains, he rarely goes up the mountain for walks and exercises.

Ye Huilan was very surprised and asked, "Why is this? Isn't it better that there is a strange scene on the mountain, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while exercising?"

Lin Zhongxiang was silent for a moment, and then, he shook his head: "Miss Ye, after we go up the mountain, you will understand." ”

Lin Zhongxiang said that he understood after going up the mountain, but soon, before he reached the halfway point of the mountain, everyone understood what he meant: This mountain forest is too quiet!

After going up the mountain, it was a weird feeling, and I couldn't say anything was wrong, but it just felt like something was wrong.

The afternoon sun shines through the gaps in the trees, forming dappled light and dark shadows on the forest floor. The chill was overwhelming, and the sunlight shining on the body was not even a little hot.

In the early spring afternoon, it was supposed to be the time when everything was growing, but when everyone walked by, they couldn't hear anything except their own breathing and footsteps!

It's silent.

Everyone walked all the way, originally they were still talking and laughing all the way, but as they walked, the voice of chatting slowly lowered, and finally only the sound of silent footsteps remained, and everyone frowned: because there were many people walking together, they could still talk to each other, and the feeling of empty and lonely silence was not so strong, but everyone could imagine how permeable the feeling would be if a person walked on this silent mountain road.

The shade of the trees is alienated, the branches and leaves are arrogant, and the four fields are dead and silent, as if the entire mountain forest is exuding a silent atmosphere, rejecting the arrival of foreign creatures. Originally, everyone's team was sparse and stretched into a long line, but as they walked, before they knew it, everyone had gradually gathered together, moving very close to each other, as if they had to rely on each other's body temperature to resist the gloomy chill that permeated the mountains and forests.

At this time, everyone understood what Lin Zhongxiang meant: this place is really weird. In this deathly silence and cold, it takes a lot of courage to go up the mountain alone.

"What the hell is this place......" photographer Li Haibin muttered quietly, and then he looked at the surrounding mountains and forests. But he was silent - everyone knew that he was taboo about something. Such a gloomy and cold mountain forest, if it is said to be haunted. That's not unusual.

Ye Huilan approached Xu Yan, and she asked in a low voice, "Mr. Xu, have you heard the legend of Aokihara Shuhai's suicide paradise?"

Xu Yan shook his head: "I really haven't heard of it, what's going on?"

Ye Huilan looked around, as if she was afraid that something was hiding in the woods and listening to her, her voice was very low: "Aokigahara Shuhai is an area located in the northwest foothills of Mount Fuji in Japan, where there is a large area of primeval forest, very dense and deep, looking down from a high place like a large sea of trees composed of trees. When the breeze blows, the branches and foliage of the trees are wavy, which is quite spectacular. ”

Xu Yan let out an "oh", he didn't understand why Ye Huilan deliberately wanted to mention the Japanese sea of trees to himself at this time, he asked rhetorically: "Is there anything special about this Aokihara sea of trees?"

Ye Huilan's eyes lit up, as if she was afraid and excited: "I heard that the sea of trees under Mount Fuji is very evil. Hundreds of people die in this sea of trees every year...... When I was working as a magazine, I used to do a special feature of Jukai Aokigahara, and I used to collect information about Jukai in Japan, and many people hanged themselves in it. There are still many people who have lost their way in the mountains and forests, starving to death and dying of exhaustion inside. Every year, the Japanese police search hundreds of corpses in the sea of trees. Some people even came from thousands of miles to commit suicide - some people say it. In that sea of trees, there is an ancient soul-sucking evil spirit that specializes in sucking people's souls. It's there to look for the ...... of the substitutes who died in vain."

Xu Yan shuddered, and couldn't help but look around—talking about the terrifying legend of the sea of trees in this gloomy wood. Ye Huilan is so creative!

He snorted angrily: "Miss Ye, in this place, do you think now is the right time to talk about this?"

Ye Huilan laughed twice, and she said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, I just think that our current situation is very similar to the legendary Mt. Fuji Shuhai?

Xu Yan said angrily: "I think what, it's not important, the important thing is that 'well-informed insiders who have been here think', this is important, right?"

Ye Huilan's face turned slightly red, and she whispered embarrassedly: "Mr. Xu, that's no way, we make weird magazines, don't get a gimmick, readers won't buy it." Still, I really want to know, what do you think of the strange thing that happened in this wood?"

"Well...... this" Xu Yan said vaguely: "I'm also a newcomer, just here, the magic of this place, I look a little strange, but what's going on, I don't know as much as you." ”

"Really?" Ye Huilan glanced at Xu Yan deeply: "But what do I think, Mr. Xu, you seem to know...... Much more than us?"

Xu Yan's heart trembled slightly, he was not so frightened, he just smiled faintly: "Yes, Miss Ye, why do you feel like this?"

Ye Huilan smiled and shook her head: "I can't say it either, it's just a feeling...... Mr. Xu, you are different from us. Mr. Xu, you, and Miss Zhu are too calm, you must know a lot of things that we don't know. ”

Ye Huilan's idea was purely based on her instinct as a woman and journalist. When she was in the hotel, even when Xu Yan showed her interest in Lin Zhongxiang, she didn't think too much about it, she just thought that the other party was interested in a news material as a media person.

But after going up the mountain, the sense of disobedience in Ye Huilan's heart became stronger and stronger - the first time she went deep into this gloomy and dead wood, everyone seemed a little uneasy and slightly afraid, even Lin Zhongxiang, a local, seemed to be a little cringe--it was the intuitive fear of human beings in the face of the unknown world, this fear came from the heart and came from nature.

At this time, Ye Huilan found that Xu Yan and her girlfriend Zhu Youxiang were both acting very abnormally - they were too calm. When everyone was trembling, they walked leisurely and moved forward leisurely. The two of them gave Ye Huilan the feeling that they knew in advance what would happen here, so they were very calm.

Ye Huilan had a faint feeling - why such a strange scene appeared here, this Mr. Xu knew the reason. And, looking at the way he looked around, he seemed to be looking for something.

"Mr. Xu, I see that you have been looking around, what kind of things are you looking for?"

She approached Xu Yan and said in a familiar tone: "Mr. Xu, can you just reveal it?" ”

Being persuaded by this Miss Ye in such an intimate tone, Xu Yan couldn't laugh or cry a little - we are not so familiar, okay?

And, more crucially, what Xu Yan is looking for is something he himself can't say - of course, if the gap in time and space is like those sci-fi movies, a door that glows black or white, then it would be the best.

But Xu Yan knew that this kind of thing was impossible. Whether the damn space-time gap is square, round, long, short, glowing or black, tangible or intangible, Xu Yan has no idea at all, he doesn't know what he is looking for.

At this time, Lin Zhongxiang, an overseas Chinese who led the way, stopped, stopped in a sparsely wooded and flattened clearing, and said in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, that morning, I saw a strange view of the sky here. Those colorful ribbons of light appear in the sky above here. ”

Everyone stood still and looked around. It was a relatively flat clearing at the foot of the mountain, where the woods were sparse and the sky overhead could be seen - strange as it was, when everyone went into the forest, they saw that the sky was very clear, a blue sky. But when they got here, they found that the sky was covered with this thick layer of dark clouds, gloomy, giving people the feeling that the sky was about to go into the night, or that a downpour was coming.

Ye Huilan looked at her watch in surprise, and she exclaimed in surprise: "What's going on? It's only three o'clock in the afternoon, and it's not dark yet, why is it such a sky? Isn't it going to rain heavily? But when we entered the mountain, it was only half an hour, and there was no reason why it was getting so fast!"

Everyone talked about it, but Lin Zhongxiang showed a strange attitude: "This, I don't think it's anything unusual." Because every time I go into the mountains, it's like this. The sky in the foothills of the mountain is completely different from the sky outside the mountain, obviously there is a sunny and sunny day outside the mountain, but the mountain is still gray and cloudy and dark, I have gone into the mountain to check many times, every time it is like this, but there is no reason at all. ”

Everyone was amazed. There was a lot of discussion about this peculiar weather phenomenon, but it was completely impossible to grasp the gist of it, but the photographer Li Haibin Zou explained matter-of-factly: "Ladies and gentlemen, in fact, this is also a specific natural weather phenomenon, which is not surprising. I remember that there was a small town in South Dakota in the United States, and it had been raining every day for more than ten years. In another town, which is less than ten miles away from their town, it hasn't rained a drop of rain for five or six years. The fact that the two towns are separated by a few miles and have such very different weather conditions has been investigated many times by the scientific community that it is believed that the difference in atmospheric circulation and geological altitude between the two places also has an extreme impact on the weather in the two places.

In my opinion, although the mountains and forests are not far apart, the two places are at different altitudes, and the Mt. Fuji region is the most varied and complex region in Japan, so it is understandable that the weather in the two places is different. ”

Li Haibin said so, but whether it was Xu Yan, Zhu Youxiang, Ye Huilan and others, or even the reader Lin Zhongxiang, no one took his explanation seriously -- everyone is an expert in fooling people, not the kind of person who can be fooled by "experts" with a few half-understood nonsense.

Everyone knows that this completely different weather conditions in the mountains and forests and outside the mountains and forests can not be explained by a simple "natural phenomenon", and this situation is very abnormal. (To be continued......)
