Chapter 389: The Gambler (35)

"They're not going to be scared sick by what happened last night, are they?" I was always a little worried, and I couldn't help but ask more. Bai Xuanzhi pondered for a while, "It's possible, let's go see them, it is estimated that the body has been invaded by evil qi, so it is sick." I ignored this last night, not all people are as yang as Uncle Zhang and Uncle Lin, so they themselves have already resisted those bad qi, maybe Brother Yang and Uncle Meng's yang energy is not so strong and can't resist the invasion of evil energy. ”

"Now they have a lot of pain. Did they really hit the mold this time?" I suddenly thought of something and started to get nervous.

"Obviously, that's the case. You and I go to a nearby mountain stream to get some spring water, and then go buy two grapefruits. Now we don't go to them, we go straight to the springs. I know there's a mountain spring nearby, so let's take two bigger bottles and fill them. Bai Xuanzhi said these words suddenly, although I really wanted to ask the reason, but after thinking about it, forget it, I can't be wrong to listen to him. Soon, we got into action. Grab two large empty bottles and head straight for a nearby mountain stream. The two of us climbed the mountain and waded through the water, along the lush woods all the way, under the scorching sun, and finally found the empty mountain stream, this area really did not see any living people, and it was extremely difficult to get in, through the heavy trees, set aside the dense bushes, twisted and turned, looking for and seeking, I didn't know anything about the terrain of this jungle, and followed Bai Xuanzhi all the way. The jagged trees, the branches and leaves that stood in the way, tripped me over from time to time, and I didn't know how long I walked, stumbling several times, not so much looking for that mysterious mountain stream as I had strayed into another world.

The faint rays of the sun cast on the gaps in the leaves, like invisible nets, restrained our movements, and we had to slow down our pace and seek all the way. Here gives me a most primitive desolation. I felt so uncomfortable that I thought I was going to die in this strange jungle, or that I would wander in this mysterious jungle for the rest of my life, and I thought of my corrosive body being bitten by unknown animals, emitting a disgusting stench. I swallowed the air that was so precious to me, afraid that the next second I would lose my life as I had thought.

I walked groggily with my tired body, like a walking corpse without thoughts. Before I collapsed, I even muttered a few words about Bai Xuanzhi, who asked him to bring me to this desolate ghost place. He didn't say anything, he just encouraged me to keep going, and at this point, I couldn't afford to refuse.

After a few words of complaining about him, I did not dare to say anything, what if he was annoyed and abandoned me in this deserted jungle? If he really does this, then I will turn into a ghost and haunt him for the rest of my life, so that he can live with guilt. My will is no match for the absurd imagination of annoying thoughts, and I don't know how this whimsical and absurd idea came to me, or maybe it wasn't my mind at all, but someone else's idea. As soon as I had this thought, I suddenly felt a sense of being awakened to a certain consciousness in the depths of my mind, and my heart was pounding faster and faster in my chest. I had no choice but to quicken my pace and flee from here, lest I lose my mind in this sparsely populated jungle. I always felt that there was a kind of magic in this jungle, which could confuse people's consciousness to the point of losing any fighting spirit, and then withdraw it.

I finally stopped, and by this time I was so tired that I was lying on the grass panting for breath. I don't even know how I got here, I kept running as if I was filming a costume drama and running for my life. My heart pounded so violently against the tiny atria that I was unaware of the slight trembling of my hands.

The scene in front of me lit up my eyes, and the scene here was much quieter, adding a bit of poetic affection. The mountain stream in front of you is flowing with a clear spring like jade, and the dwarf trees on both sides are lush, light green, and dark green are mixed and intertwined, which is not a sight. At least the seclusion of this place makes people forget to leave. This reminds me of the implication of the paradise of "the clear stream flows through the Bishantou, and the boundless scenery is new for a while".

"Bai Xuanzhi, how did you find this place? Although it is very secluded, it does not feel dull at all, but has a kind of tranquility, this will not be a paradise, right? Could it be that we have entered the paradise by mistake? I remember Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring, the herbs are delicious, and the flowers are colorful. When the forest runs out of water, there will be a mountain, and the mountain has a small mouth, as if it were light. Is there some entrance here, is there also an entrance here, could it be that the mountain pass cave is the entrance to the legendary paradise?" I suddenly brightened my eyes, my heart was very excited, and I pointed to a mountain pass cave not far away, but it was dark inside, and there was no faint light at all. Looking at the mouth of the cave that is incompatible with the scenery here, I always feel that that place has become a failure of the scenery here, a piece of ruined scenery. It was lonely, as if it was cut off from the world, and there was a sense of loneliness and despair. And it was very striking, but it was a little funny, and I found not a little intimacy at the mouth of the cave, but a sense of fear, I don't know what lived in it, could it be those man-eating goblins? Perhaps, it was not surprising that such a thing appeared in such a secluded place. It reminded me of the unknown spirit monster from last night, and as I thought about it, I suddenly lost interest in the blackened mouth of the cave.

"What's going on in your head? What paradise? There's a paradise, but not here. You don't have to stare at the mouth of the cave, you don't dare to come out. We just fetch water and nothing else. Let's act, don't look around, don't blame me for not warning you beforehand when you see the mountain spirits and mountain monsters. Bai Xuanzhi said with a smile, half-fake and half-true, which made my mood messy again and began to use those ridiculous imaginations.

"Isn't it? Are there really those mountain spirits?" and my eyes widened as if I had been frightened in some way, and his words had already reached my heart. I suddenly felt my thoughts drift and I felt a little confused. Thinking about it this way, I felt that this enclosed grove of low trees was a prison of confinement, but this prison was enclosed by trees, and suddenly I felt a difficult feeling.
