Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Ghost Under Lightning

Zhang Bing turned around, changed his sleeping position, and opened his eyes to look outside the cave.

A lightning bolt illuminated the outside of the cave as bright as day, but Zhang Bing saw the terrifying scene outside and couldn't help screaming in fright.

Hearing Zhang Bing's exclamation, Liu Jingwen and Shan Xiaotian both stood up in unison.

A blinding bolt of lightning followed, tearing through the black night.

Under the lightning, I saw three figures standing not far from the entrance of the cave, their hair was blown by the wind, and the rain flowed down their hair, and their faces could not be seen clearly, and the lightning illuminated them like ghosts in the dark.

None of the hounds outside the cave dared to rush forward, but kept spinning in place, their mouths making low whining noises of annoyance, as if they were also frightened by the three figures.

Liu Jingwen saw the scene outside clearly, and he couldn't help but be frightened. In this deep mountain primeval forest, where did the people come out in the middle of the night?

Zhang Bing was so frightened that he hugged Shan Xiaotian's arm tightly, and his whole body seemed to be shivering with cold.

Shan Xiaotian kept patting her back with his hand and comforting her: "Don't be afraid. ”

Liu Jingwen's mind flashed over the three people he saw during the day today, and his nervous heart relaxed, and he turned to Zhang Bing and said, "Sister, don't be afraid, it's the three people we met during the day today." ”

Shan Xiaotian also thought of this layer and said, "Why did they come here?" ”

Liu Jingwen thought for a moment and said to Shan Xiaotian: "Ignore them, be careful." ”

The rain was still falling, the wind swept the rain in the night, the lightning rained and the fog was like waves, and wave after wave roared and rushed into the darkness.

A hoarse voice came from the darkness: "Friend, can you borrow the cave to avoid the rain?" ”

Liu Jingwen replied without thinking about it: "I'm sorry, the cave is too small to accommodate three people, please find another place." ”

If it was daytime, Liu Jingwen would have promised them to come in and take shelter from the rain, but it was at night, and it was in the wilderness, so he had to be careful, he had to think about the safety of Shan Xiaotian and Zhang Bing. No matter who was out there, he had to be extra careful.

The hounds outside also barked at the three men, threatening to rush at them.

Liu Jingwen let out a few low shouts, and the barking of the hounds became quieter.

The three people outside were the killers sent by Chen Pengzhan to kill Liu Jingwen.

All three of them are experienced killers, and such weather actions do not affect their movements and speed in the slightest.

The three of them stood in the rain, and by the lightning they could not see the inside of the cave, because Liu Jingwen had surrounded the thatch outside the cave entrance.

They wanted to use the excuse of sheltering from the rain to go to the cave first, and then do it again, so that nothing would go wrong.

Now that Liu Jingwen refused, they didn't know what to do for a while. Two people suggested rushing in like this, and they couldn't stop it.

The person who spoke just now thought about it carefully and felt that this would not work, Liu Jingwen was in the dark, and he was in the light, not to mention that there were a few fierce hunting dogs at the entrance of the cave. It's definitely not going to work, it's going to be bad.

Liu Jingwen saw that the three people were still standing in the rain without moving, as if they were discussing something. With a hunter's sense of smell, he seemed to sense the potential danger of one and more.

Liu Jingwen asked Shan Xiaotian to walk Zhang Bing into the cave, and he stood at the entrance of the cave with the machete for chopping wood.

He was thinking that he had rejected them, and that if the people outside insisted on breaking into the hole, no matter who the other party was, he would have to do it first, and whether it was right or wrong would be said at dawn. Because of the environment and location, he had to be careful.

The three people seemed to hesitate for a long time, and when a flash of lightning came on again, Liu Jingwen saw that the three people standing outside were gone.

Shan Xiaotian saw that the three people were gone, and asked Liu Jingwen, "Are the three people we met during the day?" ”

Liu Jingwen said: "It should be!" I also wondered, didn't they go west in the afternoon? Why did you turn here again in the middle of the night? ”

Shan Xiaotian said: "I'm also wondering about this." ”

Zhang Bing said on the side: "Could they be lost?" Turned over this way again? It scared the hell out of me! I really thought I saw a ghost! ”

Liu Jingwen smiled: "How can there be a ghost in this world!" Scared yourself! ”

Zhang Bing said unconvinced: "You didn't feel shocked when you slammed it under the lightning just now!" ”

Liu Jingwen remembered that he was indeed taken aback just now, and he couldn't help but smile when he heard Zhang Bing's words, and didn't speak again.

Shan Xiaotian's heart was still thinking about the three people just now, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was saying to Liu Jingwen: "Those three people just now said that they were from the geological team, how could they get lost in the mountains?" ”

When Liu Jingwen heard this, he also remembered something, and said, "In the middle of the night, how did they know that we were in this cave?" As soon as these words came out, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

Shan Xiaotian's heart was also shocked, and said, "Could it be that they have been following us?" But why? ”

When Zhang Bing heard this, his heart couldn't help but rise again, and said, "Don't say it so scary, why are they following us?" We don't have any money on us. ”

Liu Jingwen and Shan Xiaotian couldn't help but be suspicious when they said this, and it seemed that this was not an accidental encounter.

They couldn't guess what was going on, it looked like they had met the three of them by chance, and when they thought about it, it didn't seem like that.

They don't know what's going to happen next.

Shan Xiaotian and Liu Jingwen didn't dare to be careless, and the two took turns to sleep for a while until dawn.

At dawn the wind stopped in the valley and the rain stopped.

After the ravages of last night's storm, the valley was full of water, and the green thatch fell to the ground, like a pious worshipper, and the fluffy leaves were covered with crystal droplets, and the branches and leaves of the towering trees were constantly dripping down, and countless trickles continued to flow down from the mountain, forming a row of pearl-like water curtains at the mouth of the cave.

Outside, there were cuckoos and pheasants, and many unknown birds flew out from all corners, and the valley was suddenly full of birds.

Liu Jingwen told Shan Xiaotian to stay in the cave, and he took the hunting dogs into the woods.

He's going to hunt a few prey to settle for today's food.

Zhang Bing and Shan Xiaotian stayed in the cave, washed their faces with the water that flowed down from the mountain, and filled some water with the bamboo tube.

Zhang Bing said to Shan Xiaotian with a smile: "Xiaotian, I didn't expect that the two of us would have such a life experience in this life, and we will never forget it in this life, hehe." ”

Shan Xiaotian sat down next to Zhang Bing, put his arm around her shoulder and said, "You were scared last night, right?" ”

Zhang Bing leaned his head on Shan Xiaotian and said, "With you by my side, I'm not afraid of anything!" ”

Shan Xiaotian hugged her hard and said, "Don't worry, I will protect you well in this life." ”

Zhang Bing looked up at Shan Xiaotian's face, looked at it affectionately, nodded vigorously, and said, "Hmm!" Xiaotian, I am so happy to have you. ”

Shan Xiaotian lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to her: "Xiaoice, you can see that no, this brother you recognize is really capable!" I guess I can still fight better than me! Huh"

Zhang Bing smiled: "Yes, I feel safe with him!" So I still want to take him out when I go back this time, and I can't let him waste it in this mountain. ”

Shan Xiaotian said with a smile: "This depends on fate and timing." ”

At this time, Liu Jingwen came back with a few hares and pheasants in his hands, and his body and hair were wet.
