The ground that Raba walked on was basically a place that could be easily passed, and most people who begged for a living in the mountains all year round were accustomed to walking in the mountains and forests. He also opened the way in front so that the people behind him and the horses with the equipment could pass more easily.

Except for the trail that would not be trodden for many years, the rest of the forest may have never been stepped on since its earliest days, and some vines that grew along the ground were crisscrossed among the low bushes. I had been careful to crawl in the direction of the flickering lights, but I still slipped my foot. This way of traveling can really only be described by climbing, the mountains and forests have a certain slope, and the ground is damp.

I grabbed the vines on the ground with one hand, and I didn't know what was sticking to my hands. The flashlight flew out and was completely extinguished, so I had to wipe it on the trunk of the tree and wipe off the sticky things on my hands. After groping around, I didn't find a flashlight, so I had to crawl in the direction of the light.

When I got behind the man, I finally heard him shouting. It was indeed calling the names of Lin Yang and Xu Qing. The man didn't seem to notice that I was behind him, and I couldn't see his face in the backlit position behind him. And he put his hand on his shoulder.

What I didn't expect was that he would react so much. As soon as my hand was on his shoulder, I could deeply feel his body shrink suddenly, and he stumbled forward. I grabbed his clothes, but I didn't expect him to struggle even more, and suddenly he screamed, and his body went limp.

I shouted, "It's me." ”

He had tripped over himself and sat down on the ground, shivering. I shouted a few more times before he slowly slowed down, and the light of the flashlight shone into my face. Some dazzling outdoor flashlights hit my face, and I couldn't open my eyes for a while, so I hurriedly turned my face sideways. At the same time, he reached out and brushed his hand away.

"Don't look at me, you."

"Oh...... people are scared to death, pretending to be a ghost in the middle of the night."

The flashlight was removed, I heard Tian Xiaowen's voice clearly, he slapped the flashlight on the ground and shouted at me, and after shouting, he sat on the ground and gasped, I saw his frightened appearance, with a guilty expression on his face, but he was a little funny in his heart.

By the time I pulled him up, the people around me had already arrived. The fat man didn't know where the leaves came out of the leaves, and he looked at us and asked what was wrong, so I briefly told him the ins and outs, saying that it was an oolong. The fat man laughed twice and patted Tian Xiaowen's shoulder.

"I said little comrade, don't be so bold for big men."

Tian Xiaowen glanced at the fat man, I see what the fat man has to say, I am afraid that they will quarrel. He interrupted him first and asked, "What's the matter with those two people, are they lost?" ”

"Hey, those two unlucky kids don't know where to go, and they haven't found them after looking for such a circle." After the fat man finished speaking, everyone was beckoned, and they had already searched a large area around here, so they had to go back to the camp first and then make plans.

On the way back to the camp, I learned from the fat man that after they had finished their discussions, when they were about to rest, they found that there were two missing people among them, and I thought they had gone back to their tents, but when I went to look for them, I found that these two people were not in the tent either. They shouted their names around them, and there was no response around the camp. I was tired and I wasn't hearing anything in my head.

They were also more anxious and afraid that something would happen, so they forgot to call me, and a group of people searched the surrounding woods with flashlights. We returned to the camp, and Rabah counted them for fear of being few. plus him a total of nine people, it is indeed Shaolin Yang and Xu Qing.

We couldn't do anything for a while, and as we sat around the camp, we could hear a few people sighing. I was thinking about the two of them in my mind, and suddenly something seemed to be wrong, and a moment later I smacked my thigh.

When everyone looked at me like this, I said, "That's not right." ”

"Something is wrong." The fat man asked.

"They weren't the ones who got lost." The fat man and a few others were even more puzzled, and hurriedly asked me to speak quickly.

"They were separated before we fell into the swamp, and we were in an emergency, and then our attention was on the stone statues. No one noticed them. ”

The two of them were at the back of the line, and I didn't see anyone behind me when I ran backwards before we fell into the swamp. The fat man and Raba, the two men who were pulling the rope in front of me at the time, also touched their chins, and soon afterwards came to the conclusion that they did not see the two men behind them at that time.

The fat man gasped.

"If they had gone away by then, it would have been a big deal, and they wouldn't have caught up now......"

He slapped his thigh and stood up, and I was anxious, we don't know when they got separated, and the only way now is to go back to them. After some discussion, we decided that four of them would go back to look for them, and that it would be difficult for them to return collectively even if the night was dark and windy.

In the end, the fat man, Raba, and Xue Ning, a total of four people, brought some equipment, and for fear that something would happen again, they brought enough food, turned on the flashlight, and headed back in the direction we came.

Walking all the way back, the marks on the ground where we walked were messy, and it was impossible to tell how many people's footprints were. From time to time, there were a few unknown bird calls in the woods, and the sound accompanied the surroundings, sending chills down my spine.

At first, I called their names, and then I shouted for a long time, and there was no response, so we all stopped, and we didn't have a quiet time around, from time to time there was a sound of shaking leaves, and then there was a strange bird call, and we were probably not sure, but no one said it first. It was Rabha who sang in order to lighten the mood, and he sang it in Tibetan and did not understand what it meant.

A few of us also shouted their names twice from time to time, and we can't remember exactly how long we walked, but it was at least about three or four hours, and Raba in front of me suddenly stopped, and I hit him headlong on his back, and the fat man squeezed up from behind.

"What's wrong?"

"Look there."

The light from Raba's flashlight points in one direction in front of us, and we look in the direction of the light. In the grass over there, a small bare tree had been broken off, and only the trunk was a bare little tree. With a red ribbon tied to the end of the trunk, we approached.

We knew this ribbon, and at the previous meeting, we had already determined that in the event of a special situation, when we got separated from the group, or when we got to a position where the guide could not determine, we would tie this red ribbon on the way to come, and we had twenty or thirty of them on each of us.

The grass and trees in this position are very high, and there is no obvious path, and if it weren't for the bare little trunk, it is probably impossible to notice that there is a red ribbon tied here.

"They fell behind and tried to catch up, but they went the wrong way." The fat man brushed aside the branches, and there were obvious signs of someone stepping on the grass behind the ribbon.

"Lin Yang, Xu Qing ......"

"Don't shout, if they go wrong, they don't know where they are going. It's useless to shout. The fat man waved his hand to ask Xue Ning not to shout.

I asked, "What do we do now, keep up?" ”

The fat man responded: "Keep up, I hope these unlucky children don't have a tendon, and they don't know how to stop if they can't find anyone." ”

We were about to leave, and Rabah stood there and looked at us with a look of embarrassment, "What's the matter, let's go." The fat man waved him to follow.

"I've never been in it before, it's deeper into the woods. There is no way in. ”

The fat man didn't listen to him and pulled Raba, "There's no time, even if it's a sea of knives and fire, we have to go in and find someone." ”

Raba, as if reluctantly pushed, got in front of the three of us and began to move in the direction of the red ribbon. As he walked, he turned around and said, "They can't get out of here, I'm still waiting outside, we won't be able to get out if we go in." ”

This sentence was very strange, so I patted the fat man and told him to stop first.
