Three steps turned into two steps, walking with the wind, I didn't dare to slack off, I had to hurry up to Xiaohua's house. If you can't catch up with Xiaohua's father to clean up the mess, you will have to disturb his sleep again. The moonlight was darkening, reminding me that time was creeping by.

When I think of Xiongzi's words before, I feel a little afraid. How could you see a child in this barren mountain and wild place, it is designated as an illusion caused by drinking too much, maybe tomorrow when the wine wakes up, this kid will not remember anything, and the injury on his forehead may have to be pushed down on Wang Qiu's body, this thing has not happened in the past. But Xiongzi's expression just now didn't look like he was pretending, how much stimulation did he have to have to have such frightened eyes, could it be that there was really a child? It's just hidden by Xiaohua's father?

The more I think about it, the more entangled and scared I become, and I can't wait to take a blank piece of paper and make a table to make assumptions when I encounter a complex problem as usual, and verify my own ideas.

I don't know how long I walked, and I should be almost near Xiaohua's house at my own pace, but I still saw the same scene around me, with willow trees mixed with locust trees, and darkness swallowing the moonlight. There is no sign of a human being at all. 、

"Could it be that I am going the wrong way?"

It stands to reason that he has always walked in a straight line, and he is going up the mountain, so there will be no possibility of going astray, could it be that he and Wang Qiu Xiongzi took the wrong path the moment they parted?

"You can't walk in a straight line with your eyes closed" I suddenly thought of this sentence, a theory that was confirmed by three people by chance, and we used to do this boring experiment together. Xiongzi dug a long straight line with a hoe in the field, blindfolded Wang Qiu with a cloth and told him to go. I'll just take notes.

At the beginning, Wang Qiu's walking was also stable, but after walking for a while, the position of his footsteps shifted a little. In the end, it was simply miserable, and Wang Qiu almost walked out of a semicircle. If it weren't for the fact that the footprints in the field were irrefutable evidence, he would have thought that the two of us had joined forces to play tricks on him.

Could it be the same reason? When going down the mountain, there was a flashlight to illuminate the three of them, and they could see the route in the distance, but when they were alone, there was no light, and they were surrounded by these trees of different heights, blocking their view. And I walked too fast just now to notice whether I was going up or down the mountain, as if I was walking with an eye patch, so I didn't walk in a straight line, just going around in circles?

I stopped, if my idea was true, I'm afraid I would have to wait until tomorrow morning to get out, and I had to do it like a way. But it was getting late, and now I couldn't even see the way forward, and it was impossible to make some marks on the trees to identify what was going on. This feeling made my heart a little hairy, and now I couldn't make out my fingers except for the darkness and the tree behind me. It was as if the whole person was swallowed up by darkness. I retreated in my heart, but I still walked down the mountain. No matter how you walk around, you can get out, and this mountain is not as evil as Wushan.

I thought about the plan to break the appointment with the bear, I didn't dare to stay longer for a moment, I still can't fight this mountain, and if I don't leave, if I run into something, it will be a Chinese meal.

I couldn't see anything, so I could only stretch out my hands and move my body steadily step by step. It's not much faster than a tortoise. Just walked a few steps, but was tripped by the rocks under his feet, his body lost its center of gravity and fell to the ground fiercely, fortunately, his hands were supported when he fell to the ground, otherwise this dog would have been more than just barking twice.

Just as I was complaining, I suddenly heard a small, strange voice. The voice came from behind him, intermittently.

I thought it would be dark when I turned around, but I found that there was a little light not far away. I couldn't resist my curiosity, and I was hurt by my damn self-comfort again, and tiptoed over it.

"Excuse me......" Before I could finish my sentence, the light shone at me.

My eyes were so uncomfortable that I hurriedly blocked them with my hands, rubbed my eyes and found that a flashlight had fallen on the side of a willow tree. The flashlight is very new, and it should have been bought not long ago. Take a closer look at the name of the little flower engraved on the back,

"Could it be...... This is what Xiaohua sent to herself?

I picked up my flashlight and looked around, but I found nothing, not even a human footprint. Just when I was wondering, the afterglow of the flashlight swept across the willow tree not far in front of me. I could clearly see something behind the willow tree.

The ideological struggle began to play out in my mind again, while I persuaded myself not to go, and on the other hand, I thought that if I didn't go to see it, I wouldn't be able to sleep even if I went back today, maybe it would become a big regret in my life, and just when I stood there for a long time and just wanted to light a cigarette and make a final decision, that thing slowly walked towards me. I turned on my flashlight and saw the most horrific scene of the night.

Xiong Zi is right, there are really children in this mountain. He's standing naked in front of me right now. It's not that I feel terrible because of the sudden appearance of a child on this barren mountain, but because of the child's back. It was full of marks of being whipped, and new and old wounds covered the entire back. The flesh is turned out, and the white bones inside can be seen. The child never looked back, I was completely shocked by this scene and did not dare to go to see what was going on, and I wanted to turn around and run but found that my feet were no longer obedient. But at this moment, the child suddenly raised his head and cried, scared me into a spirit, dropped the flashlight in his hand, and picked it up in a panic only to find that the child had already disappeared without a trace.

Am I completely confused, is it a hallucination that I am drunk and drunk? But the flashlight in my hand is real! It's really in my hands. Could it be that the hallucination was just a moment? Don't dare to think about it anymore. The flashlight was my lifeline, and when I turned around, I started running down the hill.

His mind was full of the scene of the child just now, as if the cry was still echoing in his ears. It's been ten minutes since I ran now, but I still feel like I'm spinning in place, and the marks I made on the tree just now have appeared for the third time under the light of the flashlight.

There is no longer the thought of comforting myself. Looks like I really did. "Ghost covers the eyes or ghosts hit the wall" I couldn't figure it out for a while, I couldn't think about it, but what I could confirm was that now that I was deeply trapped in it, it was useless to be optimistic and escape.

Leaning against a tree, my grandfather's words came into my mind, and I vaguely remembered that he had said that if he encountered such strange things, he would immediately kneel down and pray to the Buddha, and he must not move forward blindly, otherwise he might fall into the trap of these things. But I never believed in Buddhism, and I didn't know how to pray, so this trick was basically useless to me. It is said that gods and ghosts are afraid of the wicked, and when they encounter unclean things, they behave a little sideways to make them afraid of themselves, but I am not the material for the wicked, and I am so nervous that I don't even know what to say when scolding.

"Think about it...... Think about what else can be done? "I smoked a cigarette and fought back my fear to quiet myself.

After smoking the cigarette, I calmed down and felt a heat in my body, maybe the liquor I had just drunk began to work, and I took off my clothes. It was very cold when it was blown by this cold wind. I slapped my body with my hands. My stomach suddenly began to churn, and I fell to my knees in pain. It was unprecedented pain, as if the internal organs were about to be pulled out, and the whole person curled up against the tree, gradually losing consciousness......
