Chapter Seventy-Five, The Shadow of the Forest
After listening to Li Mu's story, Fang Qiang immediately made a phone call.
Not long after, more than a dozen security guards, driving three work cars, rushed towards the eighteenth bend at a gallop.
"It's useless for them to go now, people have already run away!" He Xiaoyu couldn't help but say.
"Give it a try, try your luck, in case he is still hiding in the ravine, it is also a potential danger to other tourists, I will definitely not feel at ease if I don't send someone over to take a look."
Li Mu asked, "Qiangzi, has this kind of thing happened here before?" β
Fang Qiang nodded and said: "Yes, there are often people fighting cars there in the eighteen bends, and sometimes there will be similar situations, but there has never been an attack on tourists!" β
"Bucket trucks? Who will be there to fight the cart? β
"It's a complex composition, but one thing is the same, it's all thrill-seekers."
"Don't the police care?"
"After a few times, it had little effect, there was a big ravine, there was no one nearby, and their actions were sudden, and often when the police got the news, they had already dispersed."
Du Xinzhu was obviously frightened by this incident, and stroked his chest and said: "Brother Mu, why did you choose to take the eighteen bends, where it has been in disrepair for a long time, the roadbed is loose, and few tourists dare to take that road except for drag racing people who are looking for excitement." β
Li Mu's expression was a little embarrassed, there were three routes to Fang Qiang, one was to take the highway, the other was to take the national highway, and the third route was to take the eighteen turns.
Compared to the third route, the first two routes are spacious roads, which are convenient and fast, but they are less thrilling.
Li Mu chose to take the eighteen turns, purely because he came to admire.
He had long heard of this dangerous road, and he had never had the opportunity to challenge it, but when he learned that Fang Qiang's resort was adjacent to this mountain road, he immediately decided to challenge it on the spot, which can be regarded as the fulfillment of his dream.
Lin Wan knew her husband too well, and she could guess what he was thinking by looking at his expression, so she glared at him fiercely in anger, and couldn't wait to go up and pinch him twice.
"Alright, alright, don't talk about it!" Fang Qiang started a round for Fa Xiao, "It's good that someone hasn't had an accident, it is estimated that you have met a drag racing party, he may have chosen the target at random, not necessarily intentionally targeting you." β
Du Xinzhu comprehended, and immediately echoed: "Fang Qiang is right, it's good that people don't have an accident, otherwise, you guys check in first, settle your luggage, and then go out to play together!" β
Following his wife's words, Fang Qiang asked Li Mu: "Muzi, there are two places to live here, one is the villa area at the door, and the other is the wooden house inn inside the park, where do you want to live?" β
"Where's the Cabin Inn?"
"At the foot of NΓΌhua Mountain, next to the wetland and hot springs, where the environment has nothing to say, it is more humid, and it is cooler in the morning and evening, I am worried that you will not be used to it."
"Wooden House Inn, Senior Brother, let's go live in the Wooden House Inn!" He Xiaoyu hurriedly replied.
"What's my wife's opinion?" Li Mu asked Lin Wan.
"Let's stay inside, just one night, it's not a big problem." Lin Wan replied with a smile.
"Okay, then stay at the wooden house inn, that's it!"
The group left the office, Fang Qiang and his wife drove a work car to lead the way, Li Mu still drove his own car, and the two cars drove into the resort through the side door one after the other.
About ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a wooden building, and there were already service personnel waiting there, and after seeing Fang Qiang and his wife getting out of the car, they immediately greeted them.
Li Mu and the others also got out of the car and carried their respective luggage.
Fang Qiang walked over and introduced: "Our wooden houses here are all single rooms, with independent bathrooms, but they can't take a bath, and the conditions are a little more difficult. β
Then he pointed to a big wooden house and said: "There is a restaurant, you can eat in it, the mountain goods here are very delicious, you must try it, tonight I invite everyone to eat roast lamb shank, stewed river fish, wood, we brothers must not get drunk." β
A waiter came over and asked, "Mr. Fang, how many rooms do you need to open?" β
Fang Qiang glanced at He Xiaoyu and replied, "Three rooms, this young lady lives alone." β
"Two!" Li Mu immediately corrected, "You husband and wife live in one room, and Xiaoyu lives with us!" β
Fang Qiang and his wife glanced at each other, but they didn't understand what was going on.
In front of He Xiaoyu, some words were difficult to ask, and the scene was suddenly a little embarrassing, Lin Wan smiled: "Xiaoyu can live in one room with us, and there is no need to open three rooms." β
Lin Wan is not generous, but knows why her husband wants to arrange it this way, that madman may be a drag racing party, or he may be a killer, let He Xiaoyu live in a room alone, the risk must be very high, this is by no means the time to be jealous, safety is the first.
The husband and wife all said this, and others no longer insisted on it, so they opened the door to move in, and Li Mu and He Xiaoyu squeezed into the same room.
The inside of the wooden house is very small, and the conditions are very simple, two very narrow single beds take up most of the space, in the middle is a small bedside table, there is a hanger for hanging clothes in the corner, next to a luggage table, other than that, there is nothing to do.
Oops, I didn't expect it to be like this, in this case, how can three people sleep!
Some people may say how simple it is to lay on the floor, just kidding, in the big ravine, it is damp and cold, Li Mu and none of them have a sleeping bag, if they are not afraid of the cold, then try it.
Lin Wan and He Xiaoyu were both worried, and Li Mu said generously: "You two sisters have one bed for each person, so arrange it like this!" β
"What about you, senior brother?" He Xiaoyu asked with concern.
Li Mu pointed to a few strips and said with a smile: "I have decided to take refuge in my Buddha and meditate tonight!" β
"Senior brother wants to be a great monk, is he willing to be a sister-in-law like a flower?"
"It's going to be vulgar tomorrow morning!"
After arranging their luggage, they followed Fang Qiang and his wife to walk in the woods according to the pre-planned travel route.
Entering the depths of the forest, the three women began to cheer exaggeratedly.
As far as the eye can see, there are lush trees everywhere, and the blue peaks in the distance are stacked on top of each other, and the faint mist in the forest makes the whole forest a veil of mystery.
There are also unknown wildflowers, or clusters of threes and twos, or all over the mountains, decorating the forest like a fairyland on earth.
Lin Wan tugged at Li Mu's sleeve and said coquettishly, "Husband, take a few photos for me." β
Li Mu hurriedly picked up the camera and took a picture of his wife, who was posing and smiling.
How can this kind of thing be without He Xiaoyu, when the senior brother naturally has to serve, after taking the photo, a few people walked towards the depths of the woods, looking at the charming scenery, and everyone's mood became cheerful.
After a forty-minute hike, they crossed the forest to the interior of the forest, where there was a lake in the center of the forest and a natural wetland reserve nearby.
It has not yet been fully developed, and it basically maintains its original style, and it is forbidden for ordinary tourists to visit here, but with Fang Qiang and his wife by their side, for Li Mu and others, they can go to these so-called forbidden areas unimpeded.
While walking, several people commented on the scenery along the way, otherwise they unconsciously came to the vicinity of the wetland.
Looking at the blue lake that was hundreds of meters long, Lin Wan let out a sincere admiration, she opened her arms and breathed a breath of fresh air hard.
Turning around, she looked at her husband affectionately and said softly, "Husband, do you remember the scene when we first met?" β
Li Mu nodded, walked to his wife's side, and put his arm around his wife's shoulder: "Of course I remember, you were only twenty-two years old at that time, and you were as beautiful as a fairy coming out of a painting!" β
Lin Wan leaned her head on his shoulder and looked at the mirror-like lake: "Yes, I was so young at that time, we met by the water and got married in the water." β
Li Mu said with some embarrassment: "I just remember that I drank a lot of water, almost didn't choke to death, and then was fished up by a big beauty!" β
Lin Wan smiled in a low voice, obviously remembering her husband's past.
"Husband, it's so beautiful here, we'll come here often to play in the future, okay?"
"Well, we'll come here once a year from now on! Wife, let me take a few more pictures for you, the scenery here is so beautiful! Li Mu picked up the camera on his chest.
"Good!"
The wife happily posed, today Lin Wan was wearing a set of white casual clothes, a light yellow vest on her upper body, a pink big-brimmed hat on her head, long black hair scattered on her shoulders, her eyebrows were picturesque, her smile was like spring, and she was indescribably beautiful and charming.
Li Mu pressed the shutter and left his wife's beauty in the lens.
"One more one, you stand here, the view here is not bad." Li Mu commanded with his hand, letting Lin Wan stand in front of a bush.
Lin Wan walked there obediently, holding the brim of her hat with one hand and her orchid finger with the other, tilting her head slightly and staring back.
A beautiful picture of beautiful scenery and beauties, complementing each other, Li Mu's heart is going to be drunk.
At this moment, he forgot everything and just wanted to leave this eternal moment.
With full of joy and admiration, he took a few photos of his wife in a row, and was about to capture another set of photos, when a man suddenly appeared in the camera, wearing a gray casual suit, a baseball cap buttoned up, the brim was very low, and he was wearing a large sunglasses on his face.
The man's eyes fell on Lin Wan, Li Muyuan thought he was a strange tourist, and when he found that his wife was beautiful, he looked at it twice, so he didn't care, and was ready to continue taking pictures for his wife.
Unexpectedly, the strange man smiled strangely at Li Mu, made a lewd gesture towards Lin Wan, and then made an insulting gesture at him.
Li Mu was suddenly alert, and hurriedly pressed the shutter, wanting to take a picture of the man.
Unexpectedly, the man quickly turned away, and he only photographed an extremely blurry back, flashing a few meters behind his wife.
Who is it? What does he want to do?
"Stop!" Li Mu shouted loudly and chased after him!
"Husband, why are you going?" Lin Wan shouted behind her back.
Li Mu didn't answer, and quickly chased in the direction where the man left.
The strange man was nowhere to be seen, and Li Mu chased in a suspicious direction until he came to a clearing in the woods.
The silence here was a little terrifying, and Li Mu looked around, trying to search for the man's figure.
As a result, nothing was found, the mysterious person disappeared without a trace, Lin Wan had already caught up, and asked anxiously, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" β
"A man appeared behind you just now, and I suspect it's the madman."
Li Mu can now be sure that the appearance of that man is definitely not a coincidence, otherwise why would he smile so weirdly at himself and make such a lewd move.
Is it a provocation? Or contempt?
Who the hell is he?
Is it the one who framed his wife, why did he show such hostility, and what did he and his wife offend him?
