Chapter 5 Old Zongzi
And as everyone remained quiet, inside the cave there was only the screeching sound of the wind howling outside through the bushes and the inaudible breathing of everyone, and in this quiet environment, an inexplicable fear was rapidly growing.
"Da-ta-da."
A very irregular, but very abrupt sound appeared in everyone's ears, which made everyone continue to hold their breath, and couldn't help but glance at each other, this sound similar to the sound of footsteps is not what they want to hear now, in the middle of the night in this wilderness, who will walk around at this time, even the mountain guards are not willing to go out at this time.
Gao Hunt frowned slightly, that irregular movement was obviously footsteps, just listening to this sound, the owner of that footstep seemed to be injured?
"Shhhhh Skinny monkey, your crow's beak won't be so effective. ”
A group of people are as white as paper, in this environment, at this time, hearing that kind of irregular footsteps, even Gao Hunt's face is pale, and he secretly muttered in his heart Is there really a zongzi?
"Wouldn't it? The corpses in this place have been left for hundreds of years, and they have long been rotten, at most they are ghosts, but ghosts don't make such sounds, do they? ”
The thin man's voice trembled, but the words he said frightened the crowd from white to green.
"Shut up, don't you think we haven't fainted yet?"
A group of people muttered quietly, and by this time the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the movement seemed to be coming in their direction.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and I don't know what to do for a while.
Gao Hunt quietly took out a knife from his backpack and hid it in his sleeve, usually used for self-defense, and most of the time it was used to cut fruit. Regardless, his perennial sense of crisis made him instinctively decide to hold the weapon in his hand first.
"Hey, big man, go and take a look, that voice should be some distance away from the entrance of the cave, you can see the hole around this corner, even if there is something, you can escape back."
The short-haired girl poked the waist of Lyon, who was about to sit over, and said in an extremely low voice.
"It's me."
Leon had a toothache, and he was scared of it.
"Why, because you are a big horse!"
The short-haired girl rolled her eyes and said as a matter of course.
Leon was a little speechless at the time, and looked at Lu Ningning next to him with an expectant expression. The man's reckless character in front of the woman he likes immediately made Lyon tiger, he gritted his teeth and said viciously without much hesitation: "I'll go, I'll go, I want to see what the hell it is, see if I don't beat him to the face!" ”
As he spoke, he bent over and walked towards the corner of the cave.
Along the way, he stepped on the rotten wooden box, and immediately there was a creaking sound, which made the huge body stiffen slightly, and he didn't expect that he had made a lot of movement, and in this quiet environment, the clicking sound was obviously not light.
At the same time, the sound of irregular footsteps outside also became faster and clearer.
Everyone looked at each other again, and their expressions were obviously not good-looking.
Leon stiffened for a moment, then stubbornly walked towards the corner, squatting down slightly, revealing half of his eyes and half of his head.
The irregular footsteps have become more and more obvious, Leon squatted there and didn't dare to move, his eyes squinted and carefully looked at the dark hole, and the rest of the people didn't dare to speak, their whole bodies were tense, waiting for the result of Liang.
Gao Hunt suddenly wrinkled his nose and inhaled violently, and a faint smell of blood came from afar.
His face was slightly gloomy, he was very familiar with the smell of blood, he had often been in contact with this kind of thing in the past, and he had an almost intuitive acuity for danger, he immediately tightened the knife in his hand, and then the whole person adjusted slightly and squatted on the ground, the muscles of his body contracted slightly, and he was ready to rush out at any time, at this moment his whole person was like the action of a cheetah before it pounced on its prey, full of strength and beauty, ready to launch a fatal blow.
"Mom! It's really zongzi! ”
Leon suddenly screamed, scaring everyone in the cave, and Leon was even more frightened, his whole person instinctively wanted to escape, but his feet were already a little overwhelmed by the panic, his left foot mixed with his right foot, and his huge body fell backwards without hesitation.
"Whew!"
A strange roar instantly sounded inside the cave, calm and low, like the bloody sound of a person's tongue being cut off.
Everyone was so frightened that they instinctively shrank back, clinging to the wall, eager to dig a hole and get in. Cold sweat continued to drip out of their bodies, and before they knew it, some people's backs were already cold, and they had long been wet with sweat.
At the same time, a limping figure imprinted into everyone's eyes, the light in the cave was dim and swaying, I couldn't see the person's appearance very clearly, but I vaguely saw that this person was wearing a kind of pitch-black uniform, with short hair, it was an old man who was about fifty years old, he was walking towards this side step by step, his mouth made a low sound like a beast after being injured, the fabric on the calf of his right foot had been exhausted, leaving wisps of broken threads, from the gap it seemed to be pulled by someone, and the fleshy foot was now fresh and blurred, The soles of his feet were completely covered in blood, and the smell of blood that Gao Hunti had smelled before was probably coming from here, and he could vaguely see a broken white bone from the bloody and somewhat blackened wound.
The old man's walking posture was completely out of shape, and his broken calf made him almost half-drag his right foot forward, and the blood-red soles of his feet left a bloody mark on the ground.
Someone had sharp eyes and recognized the person who came and breathed a sigh of relief: "Uncle Li, why did you come here?" And also injured. ”
Uncle Li is a mountain guard, that is, the person who is responsible for not letting students run around here, although it is a little bad to meet Uncle Li at this time, not to mention that the other party's calf is so seriously injured, but it is better than encountering the zongzi in the mouth of the thin monkey, right?
Seeing the things in the uncomfortable ghost story, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only Gao Hunt's whole person was not in a state of high alert, he felt that something was wrong, and the dangerous instinct kept reminding him, Uncle Li's old face was a little hideous, because the cover of the hat made it difficult to see, but Gao Hunt vaguely saw a trace of blood from Uncle Li's shadow under the hat. This is very abnormal, if the injury on the calf is bitten by a beast, it is easy to explain, but the blood on the face is not clear, and Uncle Li has been making a sound like a beast since he came in, and he has not communicated with them at all.
