Volume 2 The Secret Burial of the Cliff Valley_Chapter 102 The Spirit Flag

We all know that entering the mountains, especially the kind of primitive mountain forests, is easy to say during the day, but it is the most difficult at night.

We had planned to go into the mountains to explore the trail, but we withdrew before it got dark and made plans for a second expedition. But as soon as we entered the mountain, we forgot the concept of time, and by the time we thought about going back, it was about to get dark.

We determined the coordinates and found that we would definitely not be able to get out before dark, so we decided to find a place to camp and wait until dawn to look for the ground Jiao.

After some exploration, we set up a tent on a flat ground and started camping.

We often had to camp in the wilderness, so it was not a problem, and after some arrangement, a small camp was quickly set up. A bonfire was also lit in the middle of the camp, and the night watch was designated. The night was lined up, Xing Mo in the first half of the night, and Zhou Zheng in the second half of the night. Wen Youyou and I seized the time to rest.

I was old and after eating something that night, I fell asleep quickly.

I don't know when I was suddenly woken up by Wen Youyou's shout. I opened my eyes and glanced at the time, it was close to one o'clock in the morning.

I was puzzled and asked her if it wasn't arranged for Zhou Zheng to be at night? Why hasn't she slept yet?

Wen Youyou looked anxious and told me that Zhou Zheng was gone.

I was thrilled that in the middle of this mountain forest, it would be dangerous to get separated. Although this Qiyang Mountain is not a primeval forest, it is often infested with wild beasts.

I hurriedly followed Wen Youyou out and found that Xing Mo was also outside with a flashlight.

The bonfire on the ground was still burning, but Zhou Zheng was gone.

This has never happened before, because when camping in the wilderness, the importance of watching the night is self-evident. He had to be vigilant enough, not only to keep the bonfire from going out, but also to report the situation to everyone in a timely manner.

I asked Xing Mo, "What's going on?" ”

Xing Mo shook his head: "It was about half past eleven, and it was not yet the handover time. Zhou Zheng came out and said that he couldn't sleep and wanted to replace me early. I filled the campfire with some firewood and went to sleep in the tent. After sleeping for a while, I was still reminded that Zhou Zheng was gone. ”

At that time, we were all in a hurry, Zhou Zheng has always been cautious, he will never leave the camp during the night watch.

We searched around the camp and found no footprints of the beast. But he found a pair of footprints and walked out of the middle of the camp.

After checking, the footprints were Zhou Zheng's.

Yoyo was more anxious, for fear that Zhou Zheng would be in danger. So we followed the footprints out of the camp with flashlights.

At that time, I had a sense of foreboding, coupled with the previous remarks of the villagers, and at this time I also broke out in a cold sweat.

After walking out of the camp, Zhou Zheng's footprints were a little unclear. We had to rely on our experience to continue to expand the search area outside the camp. After two hours of searching, we heard the sound of flowing water. At the same time, Yoyo also found Zhou Zheng's footprints again.

We followed the footprints, and after walking a short distance, we found a waterhole.

Due to the moonlight

On the surface of the water, the light is reflected, so it is much brighter than in the forest. We sent a letter to a figure by the waterhole, and I don't know what it was doing. Looking from the back, it was Zhou Zheng.

We hurried over, and just as we were about to call him, we found an extremely strange scene.

Zhou Zheng was squatting by the waterhole in a strange posture, looking back at the moon in the sky. The mouth is wide open and makes a snoring sound.

His spirit was extremely focused, and our footsteps were heavy, and Yoyo shouted twice. But Zhou Zheng didn't realize our arrival at all, and still maintained that posture.

Wen Youyou wanted to step forward to pull him, but saw Zhou Zheng quickly lower his head and plunge his head directly into the pool.

A large string of bubbles emerges from the surface of the water.

Fearing that Zhou Zheng would drown, we hurriedly rushed over and pulled him out of the pool.

Zhou Zheng's eyes were hollow, and there were a lot of aquatic plants in his mouth. His strength was immense, and he struggled desperately to break free.

Fortunately, there were three of us who could barely control him.

I knew that Zhou Zheng must have a problem, so I hurriedly couldn't help but say that I carried Zhou Zheng back to the camp.

We took the compass and followed the coordinates back to the camp, and I realized that in fact, our camp was not far from the waterhole. There is only a dense forest in between. It's just that we searched around and lost a lot of time.

When he arrived at the camp, Zhou Zheng's resistance seemed to have suddenly disappeared.

He was drenched and lying on the ground, his belly bulging high and hard to the touch.

I don't know how much of the waterhole he drank during the time we weren't there.

I hurriedly found the medicine to induce vomiting and gave it to Zhou Zheng.

There was not much time, and Zhou Zheng began to vomit violently, most of which was black water, and there were a lot of aquatic plants and small fish and shrimp in the middle. The water spit out smelled fishy, and it made people nauseous.

After vomiting for half an hour, Zhou Zheng's stomach was not as bulging as it was just now. The breath also calmed down.

We stayed by his side until dawn the next day, when Zhou Zheng woke up.

Wen Youyou had already cried so much that he was relieved to see Zhou Zheng wake up.

We all asked Zhou Zheng what happened last night?

But Zhou Zheng was about the same as I expected, and he didn't know anything about what happened yesterday. He only remembered sitting by the campfire for the night, and after waiting for an hour or so, he was a little sleepy because he was alone, a little bored.

Fearing that he would be delayed, he hurriedly got up and patrolled around the camp.

At this time, he suddenly found that in the grass next to him, there was a pole with a white ribbon tied to it, which was being blown by the night wind.

This thing was not seen when he was camping, so it aroused Zhou Zheng's curiosity, he shook it with a flashlight, and the thing seemed to be being held by something and was moving into the distance.

The grass there was more than a man tall, and he couldn't see what was underneath because of the grass. But it felt like a figure, dressed in white, and the light was dazzling.

Zhou Zheng walked a few steps and wanted to chase after him, but as soon as he ran to the edge of the grass, he suddenly

I felt my head sink and I felt like I was going to get dizzy.

And his memory came to an abrupt end here. He didn't know anything about the rest until he woke up in the morning.

Speaking of this, Xing Mo suddenly said: "When I was next to the waterhole last night, I used a flashlight to shine in the middle of the waterhole, as if there was really something floating on the water, similar to the thing Zhou Zheng said. It's just that I was more worried about Zhou Zheng at that time and didn't look carefully. ”

When Zhou Zheng heard this, he asked Xing Mo: "Brother Xing, did you see it too?" So what do you think of that thing...... Like what? ”

Xing Mo's face was also very bad, and when he heard Zhou Zheng ask, he recalled it carefully and looked at Zhou Zheng suddenly.

Zhou Zheng and Xing Mo looked at each other, and said at the same time: "Like ...... Flags ......"
