Chapter 10: The Man Who Suddenly Appeared
Old buildings? Lan Ling's brain exploded when he heard it, and he didn't have time to judge whether he had heard it wrong, and the 14-story old building kept coming to his mind.
"You know the old building?" She was surprised for a moment, but thought: Even Zuo Qingqing knows, let alone him.
Seeing that he was not in a hurry to answer, he walked up and smiled. There was that elusive look on his face again.
Although she was curious to death, she couldn't rush to ask him now, which would make him feel that he was very deceived.
She just watched him walk up a few steps slowly, walked in front of her, and whispered, "Your father used to go to that old building before he died. ”
He was sure.
Lan Ling smelled the smell of an old cigarette gun in his mouth, he didn't get too close, he just lowered his head and whispered, but the tone was very sure, as if he had seen it.
"So what?" She frowned, and had to pretend not to care. But I saw Lao Wang laugh twice and walked up.
Although Lan Ling knew that he had said it on purpose, it had indeed aroused her curiosity.
She looked at the loess hillside in front of her, and the people stood on this tall hillside, and the people below looked even smaller. In the vast loess mud and sand, I don't know how many bones are buried. And people, such advanced animals, always seem to have endless curiosity. The quest for secrets seems never-ending.
She closed her eyes, her mind full of the old building mentioned in her father's notes.
I thought to myself: maybe I'm really going to check it out?
A gust of wind blew and almost blew off her hat, and she hurriedly covered it. Wearing a mask, the blowing yellow mud and sand were blind. She looked down and rubbed her eyes as she walked back into the cave.
The conversation with Lao Wang was not very pleasant, after all, his purpose was not achieved, so he didn't pay attention to the Lan Ling who came in.
Lan Ling glanced at the people around him, and he didn't have time to talk to anyone. She stood in front of the mural and looked at it, and when she saw that the thing in the woman's hand on the far right of the mural was completely blurred, her first suspicion was Lao Wang.
But there is no evidence, and the heart says: If it is him, but he is not necessary!
No one knows what the thing is in their hands, and they don't know what the whole mural is.
She had no choice but to focus her research on the middle one, as it was mentioned in her father's notes.
She put on her gloves and began to dust the mural.
Finally, at the moment of the end of work, Lan Ling only felt that there was no muscle or bone in his body that did not hurt. In particular, the right shoulder is very sore, and it feels like it is about to become a high and low shoulder.
It's okay to get married, and it is estimated that in a few years, the whole person will begin to have aging skin, hair loss, and serious deformation of the back. Just thinking about it makes me feel like a seventy-year-old woman.
It is estimated that the seventy-year-old lady is straighter than herself!
She stood numb with both feet, and stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the long-lost sunset, she still felt a little dazzling.
She blinked, didn't rush to take off her mask, and followed them all the way to the place where they had set up their tent.
Several of them were divided into a large tent in the middle, and because there were still few people, they were huddled together in a large tent.
Lan Ling brought a tent and sleeping bag by herself, and after eating at night, she went into her tent early.
Because after a busy day, people are tired enough, so everyone goes to bed early.
In the middle of the night, Lan Ling suddenly woke up, because she was the only woman here, and she was still quite vigilant. Although there are many people, this is the wild, and she has been careful more than the first time camping in the wild.
When she woke up, she came out of her sleeping bag and thought about turning on her flashlight to find her own kettle to drink. Suddenly, a flashlight swept across the tent, and she suddenly fell asleep.
She felt for her flashlight and looked through the tent at the dim light source. Hearing the sound of soft footsteps, she was immediately sure that it was the old king next door and their tent.
So she got up, quietly opened the curtain of her tent, revealing a little gap, and watched a figure emerge from their tent in the dim moonlight.
Following the light of the man's flashlight, she immediately saw that the man was Lao Wang!
Just look at the head that thanked the top and knew that the person must be Lao Wang. Looking at the back of his walking is even more certain.
She directly stuck her head out of the tent to look, thinking that he was going to find a convenient place, but when she looked at the direction he was going, she instantly felt that something was wrong!
She grabbed her cell phone and flashlight and slipped out of her tent.
I followed all the way, and I heard earth-shattering snoring from some tents. Walking past another tent, I heard a crunch like a rat gnawing something.
She didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, for fear of being discovered by Lao Wang. She paused for a moment, and when she listened closely, it turned out that someone was grinding her teeth.
The heart said, "Damn! It's scary, you have to wear your mouth through!
Turning his head to look at the faint flashlight in front of him, it flashed in front. She hurried to follow, not daring to go too fast. I saw that the tent was in the way in front of me, and there was a hillside not far away. I thought to myself: he must be going to the widow's cave!
But after walking for a long time, I saw that I was about to reach the front of the hillside, but I found that there was no flashlight!
She quickly looked around, and it was pitch black, and there was no movement.
There wasn't even a shadow on the hillside, and she stood silently, not turning on the flashlight immediately. In the little moonlight, she looked around with wide eyes. There is not even any grass here, and it is impossible for Lao Wang to come here to pee, let alone so close to the widow's cave. There was no reason for him to come here for convenience.
But I obviously saw him walking here!
She clutched the flashlight, still a little nervous. There was no sound around, which made her feel a little scared.
I thought: Did this old king find that someone was following him? Will he be ambushed next to him?
Thinking about it, she turned to look at the tent where the tools were kept, but she didn't see anyone in the circle.
She turned on the flashlight directly, shone it on the hillside, there was no shadow of Lao Wang on it, and thought: This is weird, hell?
Thinking that he would definitely go into the cave, she went straight uphill and headed towards the widow's cave.
The slope of loess without grass was very slippery, and the soil was loose, so she had some difficulty walking up. But when I arrived not far from the entrance of the cave, I still didn't see Lao Wang.
She shone her flashlight around, and seeing that no one was guarding outside, she stood at the door and took a deep breath, even if it was to embolden herself. Thinking about it, who would come here to guard, thinking of the stench inside, I can't help but want to vomit.
I took out a mask from my trouser pocket and put it on myself, but when I walked to the hole, I was still smoked by the stench inside, and my stomach churned.
When she came, she didn't plan to go back like this, she turned up the flashlight a little brighter and walked in cautiously. It occurred to me that I was not wearing shoe covers.
The heart said, "No matter!" Anyway, even if they knew I had been here, nothing would happen to me.
She walked past the horrified-looking skeletons and walked towards the mural.
It was pitch black inside, only the slight sound of his own footsteps, and the sound was amplified in this cave, and he felt terrifying to listen to. can sweep to the places that can be seen around the cave, and there is no shadow of Lao Wang at all.
It was the first time she had come to the mural to check it out at night. Especially when the flashlight shone on the tall woman on the mural on the right, he was almost not startled. I only felt that the face of the woman in the painting looked hideous, and the mottled mural looked even more terrifying in the dark.
She didn't even dare to inhale, and the deep hole on the right was so dark that it didn't seem to be able to shine on the end. She simply moved away and walked towards the set of murals on the far left.
I thought: It's okay if he doesn't come, just let me see what the hell is going on with this mural!
There were many people during the day, and she didn't take a closer look at whether there was a mystery on the stone wall.
But when she touched the entire stone wall, she didn't find anything strange. The rock formation itself falls off when weathered, and this is not a fully enclosed hole. She believed there must be more to it than that.
She walked to the group of murals on the far left, dimmed the flashlight, and looked at it carefully, reaching out and gently touching the paintings on the stone wall. When I touched the man sitting on the chariot in the painting, I suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the red placket.
When she touched it, it turned out to be discolored!
The heart said, "No, no! I didn't do it!
She reached out and touched it gently, and found that something was wrong. It's obvious that someone has patched up the peeling paint, and it's clear at a glance that she's been repairing the mural for so many years.
She rubbed the red paint in her hands, and her mind flashed as if she had seen anyone with red paint on her hands, but she just couldn't remember.
Thinking that it is useless to think about it now, she wants to go to the middle group of murals to check, but if someone finds out, it will be difficult to explain when she comes out. She didn't have any adhesive for repairing, so she had no choice but to spit and smear the little bit of red paint on it.
She was filling in the color when she heard the sound of dirt falling from the hole.
In this incomparably silent cave, there was a loud echo, and she could hear it clearly. All of a sudden, my heart lifted.
She quickly turned her head to look at the entrance of the cave, and it was pitch black outside. I can't see anything clearly.
I thought: It can't be Lao Wang, right?! That old fox sneakily hides and scares me?!
She picked up the flashlight and swept towards the entrance of the cave, approaching step by step, this place has been reinforced, it is impossible to collapse for no reason. She walked past a pile of bones, thinking that it couldn't be a rat or something. There's nothing to eat here.
For a while, my heart was raised to my throat, and in this weird and terrifying place, my courage has shrunk a lot, and now I made such a noise, I almost didn't break my guts.
Faintly feeling that it was Lao Wang, she clutched the flashlight and stood some distance from the entrance of the cave.
"Come out! I see you! She didn't make a lot of noise, but she was sure that someone hiding outside would hear her.
Lan Ling silently counted the time in his heart, one second, two seconds, three seconds...
She just stood quietly, her flashlight shining on the entrance of the cave, and when she turned around and wanted to go back, thinking it was her own delusion. Suddenly, a figure came out of the hole!
She opened her eyes wide and saw that it was a person! But she found that the person in front of her was not Lao Wang!
He was standing still at the entrance of the cave, as straight as a stone statue, as if observing something.
Lan Lingxin was about to be frightened, and she clenched the flashlight and shone it on his face.
His movements quickly blocked out the light. Lan Ling suddenly saw that the man was covering his face. It was a slender man!
Before she could see clearly, she saw the man quickly rushing towards her.
She panicked, there was nothing in her hand except a flashlight, she looked down to see the bones at her feet, and was about to look down to pick up self-defense. But it was too late.
I saw that the man was extremely fast, and he didn't hesitate at all. Rushed to her in an instant, and suddenly her flashlight was knocked to the ground.
She only felt the wind in her ears, and suddenly the man reached out and seemed to be about to slash at her. She closed her eyes and rolled straight from him to the other side.
Reaching out to pull his legs, he found that this was indeed a man, his legs were thick and steady, and he was about to step on his legs.
This immediately reminded her of stealing the notebook, one of the two before.
The heart said, "It's over!" Is this to kill people?!
She didn't care how dirty the ground was, and took advantage of the dim light to roll away. It's like being trampled to death by him.
Seeing Lan Ling hiding in the corner, the man bent down to pick up the flashlight on the ground.
Lan Ling took the opportunity to roll to the other side.
As the man turned, she gritted her teeth and jumped to her feet, raising her leg and kicking him in the head.
I saw that the man was kicked down by himself, fell to the ground, and immediately stumbled to get up.
Lan Ling picked up the closest thing to him in his hand, no matter what it was, he got up and directly knocked down the person, and raised his hand to stab the person in the chest.
Instantly felt that the person was not moving, and the heart said: There is a door!
I only felt that my hand was hurting, and I heard the man cry out in pain. Before I could react, I suddenly held something I didn't know in my hand, and it was broken!
