Chapter 30: The Trap

When I entered the mountain in the morning, there were still three of us left, and the huge gap made me feel empty and a little uneasy, but I was secretly relieved. There is no way to do it, the injured need to be rescued, and if the rest of the people stay, there may be an accident, which I don't want to see. Although there is no helper now, at least no innocent people will be implicated.

Erhu didn't want to go, but I didn't want him to stay and be hurt, so I told him that I had informed the third uncle, and the third uncle was likely to have arrived, so let him go and take the third uncle into the mountain, and the old guy must have a way to find his grandmother.

Having said that, he went out with the last wave of people, and when he left, he asked me not to run around, waiting for him to bring the third uncle in, I sighed in my heart, the second tiger is really cute.

Naturally, I couldn't wait in place, and after discussing with Sister Bailing and the Taoist priest, Sister Bailing suddenly said something, which made things suddenly come to mind.

On the night I returned to the village, I didn't listen to my grandmother, which led to serious consequences. According to the Taoist priest, I fell into an extremely dangerous first nightmare, and my consciousness could sink in the nightmare at any time, and then be completely consumed by the nightmare, and I could never get out of the nightmare again.

For several days, my consciousness showed no signs of recovery, and my grandmother shook her head and sighed from time to time. On the third day when I fell into the first nightmare, Sister Bailing accompanied my grandmother out on a trip to the mountains, but not long after entering the mountains, my grandmother asked Sister Bailing to wait, and then went deep into the mountains and forests alone.

After a long time, just when Sister Bailing was worried and was about to catch up to see the situation, Grandma came back and brought back a dark blue candle-like root. When I got home, my grandmother tossed around with the door closed, and the strange thing was gone, but I woke up from my first nightmare two days later.

Hearing Sister Bailing say this, I was full of excitement, grabbed her and asked, "The blue root-like wax, Sister Bailing, you remember correctly, right?" ”

"No, what's wrong?" Sister Bailing nodded affirmatively, and at the same time looked at me in surprise. Xu was too reactive to me, and the Taoist priest also cast a strange look at me.

I never mentioned what I saw in the nightmare to anyone around me, because the first time I told my grandmother about the situation in the nightmare, she stopped me and told me that I just knew about those things, and that telling others might lead to unbearable consequences.

With my grandmother's warning, I naturally didn't dare to talk nonsense, and everything that happened to me when I entered Yeling at the age of twelve became the origin of everything, and I don't know what the reason for the terrible experience that night was, and when did it begin to be forgotten by me? It was also after I fell into my first nightmare this time, and I relived my childhood nightmare in an almost real illusion, and I remembered everything.

Therefore, Sister Bailing didn't know about the terrible things I had experienced, and naturally she didn't know about the towering wax corpse tree I saw in the depths of Yeling.

If Sister Bailing's description is correct, grandma must have been to Yeling and went in. But in so many related legends, Yeling can't go in, because all the people who entered Yeling have died except me, but my grandmother not only went in, but also brought out a piece of crystals from the wax corpse tree, although I don't know how her old man got it, but when I connected with her disappearance, I suddenly had a bad thought in my heart.

Could it be the curse of Yeling?

After the two of them heard my speculation, the Taoist priest was not a local, so he didn't react much, but Sister Bailing was different, she grew up in this land since she was a child, she knew all kinds of legends about Yeling, and she also knew how terrible the real Yeling was, and her face suddenly turned pale.

Sister Bailing rarely shows this kind of expression, and the appearance of such an expression can only show that the situation is very serious.

"Let's go, let's go to Yeling!"

Sister Bailing threw down a sentence, and regardless of whether the Taoist priest and I reacted, she turned around and left. I sighed in my heart, grandma is equivalent to a mother's existence for Sister Bailing, and her feelings for grandma will not be much worse than my feelings for grandma, or even deeper, after all, she has been with grandma all these years.

I was also anxious, and hurriedly followed.

At this time, it was time to eat, but the situation was urgent, and there was no time for us to sit down and eat slowly, the Taoist priest complained, but he could also understand our mood, so he could only suppress the resentment in his stomach and follow without saying a word.

It was noon, the scorching sun was scorching, walking among the mountains and mountains with dense vegetation, I didn't feel the heat at all, and the dense leaf tips could only reveal the mottled light and shadow, but there was some inexplicable coldness.

Yeling is about seven or eight miles away from the valley into the mountain in a straight line, but don't underestimate these seven or eight miles, the deep mountains are not as good as the plains, the straight line distance of seven or eight miles may be half an hour to complete, but in the mountains, you can never think of what kind of landform you will face after turning over the mountain beam under your feet. If you encounter a difficult mountain road, the mountain rocks are obstacles, thorns are screens, each step takes a lot of time, and it is extremely dangerous, you must pay attention to whether there are hidden holes under your feet, or other poisonous insects, snakes and ants.

Fortunately, we recognize the mountain road to Yeling, and in the deep mountains, it is definitely safer and time-saving to take the ready-made road that our predecessors have stepped on than to explore the mountain road by ourselves.

I hadn't been in the mountains for many years, and the trail to Yeling was rarely walked, and it was obscured by overgrown weeds and vines, making it difficult to identify. However, there are obvious traces of someone stepping on this road, and they were left not long ago, and the footprints are very new, and it is very likely that they were left by grandma.

I was happy in my heart, Sister Bailing must have seen this, it stands to reason that she should be happy if she has a clue, but her face has always been solemn.

"Huh? Someone! ”

I was carefully looking for the direction of the footprints, the Taoist priest suddenly exclaimed, I hurriedly looked up, and saw the Taoist priest staring in one direction, I followed his line of sight, and sure enough, I found that more than 20 meters away in that direction, between the mottled and gloomy shadows of the trees, a slippery figure was sneakily peeping at us.

"Miwa, it's Miwa, catch him, don't let him run!" I recognized the figure, and I was shocked, and said that they really weren't dead, and since they saw it, they couldn't just ignore it, right? So he called the Taoist priest to arrest people.

As soon as my words fell, the Taoist priest had already pounced on the baby, and when the baby saw this, she let out a strange scream, like a bald man, and swooped into the depths of the forest shadow.

"Sister Bailing, let's keep up!" I didn't know what evil she had fallen into, and I was worried that the Taoist priest would be in danger alone, so I hurriedly called Sister Bailing to chase after me.

The Taoist priest is chasing in front, and we are chasing behind, which is really embarrassing, I am a dignified seven-foot man, and I can't even catch up with Sister Bailing. With last night's experience, Sister Bailing deliberately slowed down this time to keep a distance from me, so as not to let me be alone and encounter an accident, so that the Taoist priest and the baby were out of our field of vision at once, and I was in a hurry, let Sister Bailing leave me alone, hurry up and chase, and I must catch the baby.

She hesitated, but when she saw that I couldn't run, she handed me a bronze mirror and told me to stay here and not move, and then quickly chased after me.

I collapsed on the ground, really exhausted, running in a ravine and being on flat ground really didn't have the same idea. There was a stone beside me, and I sat down to rest, looking anxiously in the direction where the Taoist priests had disappeared.

After a while, my breathing had returned to normal, but the Taoist priest and Sister Bailing did not come back, and I began to worry and wanted to catch up, but I was worried that I would go in the wrong direction and not find me when they turned back.

In the middle of the entanglement, the back of the neck suddenly itched, as if brushed by the soft ends of the hair, which felt very comfortable, and at the same time, a fresh fragrance penetrated into the nose. It was not the fragrance of perfume or other spices, but the body fragrance of girls, Lin Qiaoer and Sister Bailing both had similar body fragrances, but at the moment this fragrance was even more attractive, I felt dizzy in my brain, and my body seemed to float up.

I thought it was Sister Bailing who rushed back from other directions, and I just wanted to turn my head to look, but my eyes were covered by a pair of delicate and cool little hands.
