Get out of the haze and see the light of day

The nobleman rescued the ghost mother forest

Seeing the moonlight at the top of the mountain crevice, the two of them couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in their hearts, and the soles of their feet unconsciously sped up.

After about ten minutes, Xiao Liu and the bearded few people finally walked out of the dark underground world.

After Xiao Liu walked out of the crack in the mountain, he looked at the moon in the sky like a silver plate, gasping for breath, the warm air mixed with the fragrance of grass, which made Xiao Liu's tense nerves relax almost instantly, and the air had never smelled so good in his impression.

Xiao Liu carried Wu Fan out of the mountain crevice, came to a tree a few meters away, and put Wu Fan leaning against the tree aside, he wanted to say something to the bearded man, but Xiao Liu found that the bearded man was frowning and squatting on the edge of the mountain crack at this time.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Liu leaned over and asked.

"Don't you think something is wrong?" The bearded man said in a low voice.

"Something is wrong? What's wrong? Xiao Liu looked up and looked around, and found that this mountain crack was located at the foot of a mountain, the surrounding terrain was gentle, not far away was lush with trees, and the sound of birds was constantly singing, which did not look like any danger at all.

"What's wrong? Is someone coming? Xiao Liu listened carefully to the surrounding voices and said.

"Not people! It's a tree! The bearded man said with a frown.

"What? Is it a tree? Xiao Liu was surprised.

"Hmm!" The bearded man nodded and said, "We should have gone down to that ancient tomb in the same place before, that place is a desert area in Gansu, but here ......"

The bearded man pointed to the densely growing trees around him, and he didn't say any more, but what he meant Xiao Liu immediately understood.

"You mean we're no longer where we were?" Xiao Liu asked in surprise, "Then where is this?" ”

"What the fuck do I know!" The bearded man scolded in a low voice: "This place is very weird, let's go out first!" ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Liu nodded in agreement.

"Let's rest here for fifteen minutes, and then find our way out." The bearded man glanced at his watch and said, "Where is that surname Wu?" ”

"Isn't he just under that tree......" Xiao Liu said and pointed to the tree not far away, but when he wanted to look over there, there was not even a shadow of a person under the tree.

", he ran away!" Xiao Liu shouted and ran under the tree.

However, Xiao Liu circled around the tree several times, but he didn't even see Wu Fan's shadow.

"Grandma, that old boy is really a fucking old fox, I guess he woke up a long time ago, and he is pretending to be faint with me here." Xiao Liu scolded.

"Alright, alright! Don't talk about the useless ones, at least the things are still in our hands. The bearded man said. In that case, then the two of us should not rest, and it is only right to find a way out. ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Liu nodded helplessly.

After saying that, the bearded man and Xiao Liu briefly identified the direction, and then walked all the way south.

Walking in the jungle is easy to say, but it is actually very difficult to walk, countless snakes, insects, rats and ants come out from time to time to harass the two of them, the thumb-sized mosquito almost bit Xiao Liu into a pig's head, and the green snake with the length of the forearm has repeatedly drilled into the bearded trousers, making him swear a lot, almost scolding the snake's ancestors for eight generations.

The two of them stumbled through the jungle for three days, and finally saw a bunch of centaurs when they were about to run out of energy.

This is a team of horses dressed in ethnic minority costumes, eight horses, four carts, more than a dozen people, and the first one is also a big man with a beard.

The bearded man carried Xiao Liu and the others to his makeshift camp, and the two teenage boys fed Xiao Liu and the bearded man a little wine and bacon respectively, and after a while, the two of them came to their senses.

"Thank you! Thank you! Xiao Liu leaned against a tree on the edge of the camp and said reluctantly.

"You're welcome!" The bearded man laughed and said in an extremely awkward Mandarin. "I said, two brothers, how did you come to this land where birds don't?"

"Here...... What is this place? The bearded man took the kettle handed over by the young man next to him, and after pouring four or five sips in one go, he said slowly.

"You don't know where this is?" Hearing the bearded man's words, the bearded man's eyes suddenly became vigilant, and he asked with a frown.

"We ...... We don't know. The bearded man shook his head and said, "The two of us are forestry prospectors from the government, and we were sent to do surveying and mapping work on this territory, but we encountered ...... in the middle of the work When we encountered a snake, the two of us ran away from the group as soon as we were scared. No, then we got lost, and we got lost when we wanted to find it, and our two brothers walked in this forest for three days, but we still couldn't get out. ”

"You're from the government?" The bearded man asked vigilantly.

"Hmm!" As he spoke, the bearded man took out a dark blue leather work card with a red coat of arms from his jacket pocket and handed it to the young man sitting on the side.

The young man took the badge and looked at it, then handed him to the bearded man by the fire.

The bearded man took the work card, looked at it in his hand for a long time, and then handed him back, only then did he reveal his eight yellow big teeth, and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is really a person from the yamen!" ”

"You saved me, I can't lie to you." The bearded man laughed too.

As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Liu on the side, and found that Xiao Liu was looking at him with contempt, and the bearded man didn't care, he turned his head and continued to ask with a smile: "I said brother, where is this place?" ”

"This is the Ghost Mother Forest! It is a land boundary at the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou, you are also lucky, usually no one dares to come in this place, only I dare to bring people in the mountains to collect medicine. If you hadn't met me today, I guess you wouldn't have wanted to get out of this forest in your life. The bearded man laughed, and his laughter was full of praise for himself.

"What? Is this the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou? After hearing this, Xiao Liu and the bearded man couldn't help but gasp.

"How could the two of us have crossed thousands of kilometers in one night, almost across the entire territory of China, from Gansu to the border between Yunnan and Guizhou." Xiao Liu couldn't help but think in his heart.

The bearded man looked at Xiao Liu, and Xiao Liu couldn't help but look at the bearded, although they didn't say anything on their lips, they could see each other's thoughts from their eyes.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the reaction of the two, the bearded man asked in surprise. "Any questions?"

"Nothing! It's nothing! The bearded man hurriedly waved his hand. It was only the two of us who suddenly realized that we seemed to be going the other way. ”

"Hahahaha!" Hearing the bearded man's words, the bearded man laughed and said: "You two city cadres really don't know much about the mountains, even if you go the other way, it's normal, but you are lucky, you met my Lao Li, you come with me later, come back to our village with us, where do we have a phone, you may be able to contact your team." ”

Speaking of having a telephone in his village, the bearded man who called himself Lao Li looked particularly proud, he took a sip of wine and continued: "Let me tell you, you are really lucky, our village is the only village in the vicinity that has electric and telephone lines, if you meet someone else, it is estimated that it will take more than ten days to get out of this forest." ”

"Where do you have a phone?" The bearded man said excitedly when he heard the word on the phone.

"Of course! A phone call I received last month was in the village chief's stilted building. Lao Li said proudly.

"It's great to have a phone." The bearded man said with a smile.

After a simple rest for half an hour, Xiao Liu and Bearded followed Lao Li's herbal horse team on the road again.

Lao Li saw that the two of them were injured, so he ordered someone to bring two mules to the two of them.

"I said that you two city cadres don't dislike this mule, our horses are all for goods, people can't ride, I saw that your two feet are really limited, so I got you two mules to ride, you and our people have to carry things on their backs." Lao Li said and pointed to the young boys who were busy sorting out the goods around him, and sure enough, there was a big backpack on each of them, which either contained some rare medicinal herbs or some strangely shaped tools.

The bearded man took the reins and said with a smile: "It's already good for us to have a mule to ride, so why don't you mind?" Thank you Brother Li for taking care of you. ”

"You're welcome, brother!" After Lao Li finished saying this, he made a long whistle, and after everyone around heard this whistle, they all lined up and set off, no one talked much in the whole process, and no one had any extra movements, like a well-trained army.

Lao Li walked in the front of the whole team, three young strong men in the middle pressed four big cars, Xiao Liu and the bearded man followed behind the car, and five or six young strong men walked in three columns at the end of the team.

After walking south for about half a day, the group suddenly turned west.

The bearded man rode a mule to the front of the team several times and wanted to inquire with Lao Li about the situation nearby, but Lao Li didn't seem to want to say anything, just blindly said, "If there is something to talk about in detail in the village, it is almost dawn at this time, and you must get out of this ghost mother forest before dawn, otherwise there will be a big event!" ”

The bearded man asked, "What's going to happen?" Could this forest be haunted? ”

But Lao Li only smiled when he heard it, and did not answer the bearded man's words.

When the bearded man was bored, he honestly returned to the middle of the group, and did not speak.
