Before dawn, the four of them had already set off.

Yu Fan, Chen Frameyang, Guo Na, and the guide Shen Wei.

Why is there no Xinling? Isn't this dog skin plaster always making a fuss about coming along? And isn't she squeezed into the same bed with Guo Na? How could you get rid of her so easily?

It turned out that after returning to the room last night, Yu Fan pulled a WeChat group, with Yu Fan, Chen Jieyang, Guo Na, and Shen Wei.

Yu Fan told Shen Wei in the group that the departure time was advanced to six o'clock the next morning, and he was willing to pay an extra amount of money (after all, Xinling was also going to pay Shen Wei as a guide before), so that Shen Wei would not earn one less person's guide fee because he didn't bring Xinling.

Last night, Yu Fan deliberately said in front of Xinling that the time of departure the next day was seven o'clock, just to confuse Xinling. So that they can quietly get rid of this drag bottle.

After all, this investigation is full of unknown dangers, and this Xinling seems to have always regarded Yu Fan and them as ordinary travel friends, completely unaware of the danger of this trip. Therefore, Yu Fan decided that he had to get rid of her.

It was dark after six o'clock, and everyone in the four-person team was relatively close to each other, Shen Wei walked in the front, Yu Fan followed, Guo Na Yu Fan was behind, and Chen Jiaoyang was at the end of the team.

In fact, the personnel arrangement order of the mountaineering team is very particular, and the people who take the lead generally belong to the guides, leading the team to find the direction and avoid detours. The person at the end of the line is generally required to be the strongest person, who can always assist the person in front of him, and if someone in the team is physically exhausted or has an accident, he can also detect it first. The people in the middle of the team are generally weaker and are "carried" forward by the team. Imagine if the ranking is not particular and the fastest person is ranked first, then the most likely result is that the fast people are getting faster and faster, and the slow people are getting slower and slower, and finally falling behind, and the whole team will be scattered, which is very dangerous.

When it's dark, it's best to keep a distance of about two meters between everyone. But the good thing is that Shen Weiyin's road is still a relatively easy road to take.

Chen Jiaoyang's luggage was the heaviest, and he could hear the clatter of stepping on the dead branches and fallen leaves with every step he took.

Chen Jiaoyang: "Shen Wei, do you really know where that ghost god is covered with grass?" How far do we expect to go? ”

Shen Wei: "I don't know where the grass you are looking for is, but I know how to walk in the deep mountains, the terrain in the deep mountains is not complicated, and when you enter the deep mountains, the herbs you are looking for are easy to find, and the difficulty is that ordinary people can't walk in the deep mountains." ”

Guo Na asked suspiciously, "Oh? Why is that? ”

Shen Wei pretended to be mysterious and said: "Because the farthest road is the nearest road." ”

Chen Jieyang: "Boy, don't sell Guanzi, if you have something to say, there is a guy named Yu Fan behind you who usually pretends to be forced to speak in front of me, and he is beaten by me a lot." ”

Shen Wei snorted and said, "We have to go into the deep mountains here, and if we take a short approach, we can get there in about a day." The road we have to walk will take about two days to arrive. ”

Yu Fan asked: "Then why don't you take a short road, but you have to take a long road?" And double the distance! ”

Shen Wei said in a deep voice: "Because that shortcut road can't be walked!" ”

Yu Fan, Chen Jieyang, and Guo Na said in unison: "Why?"

Shen Wei said coldly: "Because that is a road of death!" ”

The three of them were silent, since they stepped into the realm of Ziwu Village, there have been strange things here one after another, although they have all been explained by Yu Fan in a scientific way, they are actually not ghosts and gods. But the mystery of this realm has not disappeared at all.

Shen Wei continued: "The old man in the village said that there was a Yin soldier on the near road, and if we bumped into it, we would die for life. I grew up here and never walked that path. According to the elders of the village, there are many explorers who are not afraid of death because they have taken a shortcut, and as a result, they either disappear or come back with abnormal nerves. In fact, I have personally seen a few people who went crazy after returning from a tour, saying that they not only saw the Yin soldiers, but also heard them fighting there. ”

Shen Weiwei said as he took the pink kettle from his bag and took a sip: "Every time something happens to these tours, the police will come here to investigate, and then they won't find anything, and then they will go back, maybe it is these unsolved cases that make us more and more mysterious, and the reputation of the ghost village is getting bigger and bigger." After Shen Wei finished speaking, he took another sip of water and hung the kettle around his neck.

Yu Fan's curiosity came again: "Xiao Shen, how far is the 'short road' you said from us?" ”

Shen Wei said: "That road is called 'Shocking Horse Gully', we will encounter that fork in the road when we walk, there is a road monument on it that marks the direction of Shocking Horse Gully, but we will choose to take another road." ”

Shen Wei stopped suddenly, Yu Fan, who didn't have time to brake, bumped into Shen Wei's ass in the dark, and then Guo Na hit Yu Fan from behind him, almost didn't stand firm, and hugged Yu Fan's waist to maintain his balance.

Shen Wei stopped and said to Fan very seriously: "You must not be surprised by Ma Yan's idea, I will never go there, and I will not take that road no matter how much money I give." ”

Yu Fan agreed: "I know, I'll just ask casually, it's pure curiosity." Yu Fan didn't want to make any extraneous branches, after all, as long as he reached the mountains safely, he might be able to find clues about the ghosts and gods, and he would be able to analyze and share the purpose of the short combination.

Guo Na sighed: "Shocked? What a strange name. Why is it called that? ”

Shen Wei: "Because every time the horse walks to this place, the horse will be very panicked, sweating profusely, as if it has seen something terrifying, no matter how you drag it, it will not go one more step into the ditch, so this is the origin of the name of the frightened horse." ”

Chen Frameyang: "So hanging? This is also a legend, right? ”

Shen Weiwei said seriously: "This is definitely not a legend, I swear to God." Because I had done the experiments myself, I brought our little boy (the name of the horse) here, and refused to go a step inside, so I trampled it so hard that it finally fell to its knees. Because of this, my dad almost didn't beat me to death, and all my hair was wiped out (dialect). ”

It looks like a mysterious place. Then the day began to dawn, and the sun came out, and the sunlight shone through the clouds and mist in the valleys.

Shen Wei raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his face, looked at the sun, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's finally dawn, we can speed up the pace, and then ......"

"Ah!!h Suddenly, a girl's voice came from behind the team, interrupting Shen Wei's words.

"Damn, my ass hurts."
