Chapter 41: A Bunch of Bones
Tang Nian smiled at the corner of his mouth, turned his head, patted Gu Lin's arm gently, and said excitedly: "We have finally arrived!" ”
Gu Lin still didn't like to talk, he just nodded, and there was no expression on his face.
Tang Nian had no choice but to turn around in embarrassment, her eyes narrowed slightly, she raised her hand, put it between her foreheads, and looked at the arbor forest in the middle of the mountain.
Well, if you look closely, it seems a bit far away.
They had seen the arbor forest in the distance, and seemed to be on an equal footing with them, but now at the foot of the mountain, they found that they were still some distance from the middle of the mountain.
Tang Nian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he said firmly: "Let's go, rush to rush!" ”
They couldn't afford to delay any longer, after all, they had to go back to cooking at night, and there were still three people in the family waiting for dinner.
Gu Lin kept following Tang Nian, and the two climbed towards the middle of the mountain together.
Because of the strong wind of the previous night, the trees of this forest had been blown to the ground, and the leaves were scattered all over the ground, and there were many strange fruits.
Tang Nian accidentally stepped on a fruit with one foot, and the pulp burst out directly and got her feet.
She couldn't help wiping the hot sweat from her forehead, it seemed that going up the mountain was much more tiring than walking in the flat ground.
And she hasn't had such a strenuous exercise for a long time, and her body is getting faster and faster, and she can't bear it, so they must fight quickly.
Just when Tang Nian was in a hurry, she suddenly stepped on something hard under her feet, and she slipped under her feet and fell straight to the back.
"Ahhh The woman's screams instantly rang out throughout the name.
Fortunately, Gu Lin's eyes were quick, and he reached out to grab the woman's waist, and Tang Nian fell into Gu Lin's arms again.
When she opened her eyes, she bumped into Gu Lin's ink-like eyes.
His cheeks turned crimson again, and after Tang Nian got up again and again, he said embarrassedly: "Yes...... I'm sorry. ”
Gu Lin only shook his head slightly.
When Tang Nian was about to continue walking, he realized that there was a skull under his feet, and that skull should be a cat or a dog according to its size.
Tang Nian was so frightened that he jumped back again and screamed.
Her hands subconsciously drooped on Gu Lin's body, and then she screamed "ahhhhhhhhhh
Gu Lin raised his long sword, used the long sword to put the drum far aside, and said softly, "Okay." ”
Tang Nian took a few deep breaths, squinted his eyes and turned to look at it again, the skull no longer knew where it had been kicked by Gu Lin.
No matter how bold she was, she had never seen anything of it directly.
Except for when her grandfather was going to move the tomb before, she went to the place where her grandfather was buried in the middle of the night with the coffin bearer.
The coffin bearer also opened the lid of her grandfather's coffin and put something in it, which was supposed to keep them from looking, but she couldn't help but be curious, and when she looked at it, she found that it was nothing more than a pile of white bones.
Not only that, but during that time, she hallucinated very much, and seemed to see the white bones moving.
That incident had left a very strong shadow on her heart, so she didn't dare to look at such things for a long, long time.
Seeing that the skull was long gone, Tang Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But she didn't take a few steps ahead, and some white bones appeared again, and Tang Nian's face turned pale with fright.
Gu Lin also seemed to notice that something was wrong with her, and with a slight sideways look, he saw that the woman kept swallowing saliva, and even her steps were very small.
He couldn't help but hook his lips slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "Scared?" ”
Tang Nian didn't react for a while, thinking it was the pile of bones, and when he spoke, he screamed again in fright.
She pointed to the pile of bones, and her face was bloodless and trembling, and she said, "He, he, he...... Talked......"
Hearing this, Gu Lin couldn't help but laugh again.
"I'm talking."
Tang Nian looked in the direction of the voice, and then saw Gu Lin's face.
Oh my God, I'm going to die of shame!
Tang Nian is now eager to dig a hole in the ground and get into it instantly.
It's just that the pair of white bones under her feet now look a lot like human ones......
Gu Lin stretched out his arm towards her and said, "If you're afraid, just hug me." ”
Then her eyes locked on her face.
Hearing this, Tang Nian swallowed his saliva, and then finally slowly raised his hand and hugged Gu Lin's arm.
After all, it's much better to rely on than not to rely on.
The two walked side by side, and saw a lot of strange gadgets along the way.
Not to mention the bones, there were a lot of rusty iron cloths, worn axes, and almost all kinds of things could be seen in this forest.
Tang Nian couldn't help but ask, "What kind of place is this?" ”
Gu Lin patiently explained: "There are very few people in this forest, so the animals are very active, except for a few hunters who will put some hunting tools here from time to time and take them back regularly, there are no other people." ”
Hearing this, Tang Nian finally understood what was going on.
No wonder from the moment she entered this forest, she always felt that the back was gloomy, and the wind was also gloomy.
There was still a trace of heat outside, and after stepping into this forest, it was instantly smoothed out, as if there was some miracle.
It turns out that this place is not popular.
But they still had to walk a little way to reach the woods in the middle of the mountain.
It's still relatively easy to walk now, the road is already so difficult, Tang Nian can't imagine that there will be something waiting for them in the arbor forest.
As he walked, Tang Nian suddenly screamed.
I felt that something stabbed me in the heel, and then the pain hit my brain.
Tang Nian squatted down and took a look, only to find that there were still thorns on the side, she bared her teeth and tried her best to hold back the pain.
As a person who has never been to such a deep mountain and old forest place, many things are naturally extremely unaccustomed.
Gu Lin raised his eyebrows, squatted down instantly, and then ripped off his clothes and cloth, entangled the wound on Tang Nian's leg.
His movements were extremely slight, for fear of hurting Tang Nian.
Tang Nian also gritted his teeth and tried not to make any sound, so as not to worry Gu Lin.
"Does it hurt?" Gu Lin raised his eyes and saw Tang Nian's frowning brows.
Tang Nianqiang put out a smile, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Gu Lin knew that she was being reckless, and her movements were a little more careful.
