【008】Distress
Jiang Rong didn't need to look back, knowing that this kid He Pengfei was funny. Zhong Kui's father's whereabouts are unknown, and at this time, there is still a mood to joke. Because he is still a man, he has no pity at all.
Zhong Kui is not there. According to Zhiqing's expectations, the three of them temporarily withdrew to the dilapidated building, waiting for him to return before making plans.
Everyone has doubts in their hearts, and they feel too weird about the inexplicable chase before. But no one dares to pierce this layer of window paper, because fear comes from imagination and psychology. Once a person's fear limit explodes, the fragile immunity will become uncontrollable. Will go crazy, will be hysterical and other complications!
After silently walking out of the cave, the three of them were dumbfounded. Just now, they only cared about chasing, completely ignoring the surrounding environment, and in a panic, the three of them actually climbed halfway up the mountain. The sky is like an inverted iron pot, bottomless and black, and the bottom of the mountain is also pitch black...... I can't see the direction of the town, just rely on my mobile phone, lighter illumination, I don't know how long I can hold on?
Zhiqing hesitated, turned around and looked at the cave that was also pitch black, and said, "Why don't we stay here and wait for the dawn to go down the mountain?" ”
His suggestion was immediately echoed by He Pengfei: "Yes, look at how this goes?" Maybe he fell off the cliff and died, and there was no one to collect the body. ”
"Phew! Coward. Jiang Rong took a sip and said, "We have a mobile phone, which can be illuminated." As she spoke, she took out her phone and pressed the screen.
Zhiqing disagreed with Jiang Rong's suggestion, he said: "We can't waste the only remaining resources, the mobile phone can certainly illuminate, what if there is no power?" What if there is a signal and I want to make a call or something? ”
What Uncle Chen said was not unreasonable, but Jiang Rong just didn't worry about her father. She muttered, "But what about my dad?" We don't know where he is. ”
Zhiqing looked at her with a bitter face, and said helplessly: "What if something happens to the two of you little ghosts, I don't know?" Besides, your dad isn't a simple character. What can he do if he can pinch and calculate, what big deal can he have? Even if you don't see us, you will be looking for it by all means. ”
The three of them retreated to the cave, and He Pengfei lit a lighter and took care of it casually. Jiang Rong on the side looked at it with the light, and at this glance, she saw a little sign. The cave is not big, but the bottom of the cave seems to have been trampled on by countless people, opening up a narrow and inconspicuous path.
'......Huh' The lighter was hot after burning for a long time, He Pengfei whispered in his mouth, and hurriedly extinguished the fire. Jiang Rong on the side laughed out loud and scolded secretly; When she chuckled, she subconsciously took out her phone and pressed the screen to show off. A faint green screen light, similar to a small flashlight, illuminates the limited space of the cave.
Zhiqing, who was very depressed on the side, saw that the child was playing with his mobile phone wantonly and consuming electricity, so he couldn't help but be angry and said: "You guys play!" If you don't have to play with your life, you won't have anything to play. ”
Jiang Rong felt aggrieved and turned off her phone with a frosty face. He whispered, "I want to go and see what's going on inside the cave, what if there's a human?" ”
Her words immediately attracted He Pengfei's ridicule, "Do you think this is the home of the cave people on the top of the mountain?" ”
"You're so bored." Jiang Rong sneered: "Aren't you a cave man on the top of the mountain now?" ”
"Humph! All these are your gifts......"
"Okay, don't be noisy. Rong Rong is right, we need to go and see the situation. Zhiqing's words are not partial to one side. He felt that if there were humans living in this cave, as Jiang Rong said, it might not be a good thing, at least he could get corresponding help.
The three of them don't have to vote to decide, and the winner has already been decided. The idea of a two-to-one vote, with the minority obeying the majority, decided that they were going to check the situation inside the cave. Zhiqing was dispatched, and He Pengfei's lighter first illuminated the path. Secondly, after the lighter is heated, it will be replaced by the mobile phone for a while, but the mobile phone will be turned on and off, and the consumption will be large, which is not a problem.
The cave stretches all the way, and when they accidentally kick and touch the rocks, they emit a dull and hollow echo. For a while, He Pengfei wanted to squeeze Jiang Rong away and walk in the middle. Because he didn't want to see the three sneaky, trembling figures reflected on the cave wall. Later, when I saw clearly that these three figures that looked like ghosts turned out to be themselves, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The cave is getting wider and wider, which Zhiqing didn't expect. As an old surveyor, he has an immeasurable endurance to conquer the unfamiliar and unfamiliar geographical environment.
In his lifetime of surveying experience, there is something extraordinary about this place. It is like a natural tunnel, and in addition to being dark and gloomy, it also indicates that they are about to walk through this exit to another place.
The cave is unobstructed and has plenty of convective air. The convective air formed a cold wind, forcing Jiang Rong to clench her arms and follow Uncle Chen nervously.
He Pengfei looked around, unable to concentrate. He always wants to talk because talking reduces the feeling of fear.
The lighter finally insisted, flickering flames, struggling uselessly. Eventually, the 'poof' went out all at once. The darkness engulfed them again, and Jiang Rong was used to this sudden darkness, and pressed the button of her mobile phone in an orderly manner.
The light of the screen cannot be compared with the flame in reality. Its weak sense of light reflects everyone's face like a zombie's face, white and sensen.
Walking to the hinterland of the cave, Zhiqing suggested taking a break. They sat on the ground in three, and they had no time to worry about anything at the moment. I just feel really tired! And when I sit on the ground, I have a strong sense of laziness, and I don't want to get up and continue to work hard.
"What's on the other side of the cave?" Jiang Rong temporarily turned off the screen of her mobile phone and gently kneaded her fingers that were a little painful because she had been holding the screen for a long time. In the darkness, he suddenly asked.
In silence...... They all subconsciously bowed their heads, not daring to face the dark space.
Leaning slightly, Zhiqing coughed twice, and replied slowly: "I also want to ask this question, let's be calm and don't be impatient, let's go and see it later." The peaceful tone is to give their two children a stable mood. In fact, he was also playing drums in his heart, and when he left, he didn't know how far away from Zhong Kui was?
Zhong Kui has been running wildly, and the retreat is almost blocked. It's not a hospital, it's more like a devil's cave! The situation here is too complicated. Those lying on the bed are unknown creatures that mimic humans, and after stealing information from human brains, they successfully clone themselves and blend into the crowd instead of them.
This idea was too terrifying, and Zhong Kui didn't dare to continue thinking about it. After running for a while, I felt that my whole body was about to fall apart.
