Chapter 42: Disappearance and Search
Seeing Wei Lin suddenly run forward, I naturally followed him and chased him, I tried my best to catch up and pull him, when I ran in physical education class before, this guy didn't run as fast as me every time, who knew that this time he ran like crazy to run up, I couldn't catch up with him!?
Since it was an uphill road, my speed itself was not so fast, and the road up the hill was no longer a flat cement road, but the original dirt road, and as soon as the time of the previous outbreak passed, my speed began to decrease, but Welling kept his speed, so the distance was getting farther and farther.
In the process of chasing, I didn't pay much attention to the running under my feet, and I accidentally tripped over a raised stone, and the whole person threw myself forward, and fell into a lot of meat, but fortunately I supported it with my hand and was not injured, but when I got up again, there was no figure of Wei Lin.
I moved my sore arm and looked around, and Wang Qiuqiu and Liu Ting also caught up behind me.
"Are you alright?"
"Where's Arin?"
The words that the two of them said almost at the same time, Wang Qiuqiu looked at me with a worried look in his eyes, and Liu Ting looked at me with an anxious look with the same worried look in his eyes.
I shook my head, patted the dust on my body and said, "I should have run to the front, I didn't catch up with him." ”
As soon as Liu Ting heard this, she was about to chase forward, but I hurriedly grabbed her.
"What are you doing, let go of me, I'm going to find Arin!"
Liu Ting struggled to break free from my hand, she is concerned now, let her run over like this, wait for Wei Lin to find her, what should I do if she is lost? I grabbed her and pulled her back, yelling at her, "Calm down and listen to me!" ”
With such a roar, Liu Ting really quieted down, and I said to her: "It's going to be dark soon, you and Wang Qiuqiu go home first, I'll go to Wei Lin and I'll bring him back when I find him." ”
"Qiuqiu, take Liu Ting back first." I took Wang Qiuqiu's hand and asked her to grab Liu Ting.
Wang Qiuqiu held Liu Ting, but Liu Ting immediately broke free and said, "No, I want to go with me, otherwise I won't worry." ”
Wang Qiuqiu also said: "Yes, why don't we go find it together, there is a lot of strength in people!" ”
I shook my head: "I have to be distracted to take care of you if you follow me, it will be dark soon, and the mountains will be dark by then, what if you have any more accidents?" When the time comes, Wei Lin and your parents will not blame me for death, and Wei Lin's grandparents will definitely be worried when they see that we haven't gone back for so long, you can go back first and report safety, do you know? ”
I preached, which dispelled Liu Ting's impulse and made her hesitate to think about the problem, seeing that saying this had an effect, I patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "Don't worry, Wei Lin must be fine, I will definitely find him!" ”
Liu Ting looked at me, and when she saw that I had such a confident promise, she nodded and agreed, but the worry on her face did not subside at all, and she finally couldn't help crying.
Seeing Liu Ting crying, Wang Qiuqiu comforted softly on the side, I motioned for Wang Qiuqiu to take Liu Ting back, Wang Qiuqiu pulled Liu Ting and turned his head to look at me when he left, and said: "Be careful yourself, come back as soon as you find Wei Lin, if it doesn't work, we will call the police, don't be reckless, do you know!" ”
I was a little stunned when I suddenly heard her advice, and Wang Qiuqiu also seemed to feel that he had said a little too much, seeing that I was stunned and didn't reply, he pouted and said, "Let's go first." He dragged Liu Ting, who was still crying, down the mountain.
"Don't worry, Sister Ting, Wei Lin must be fine, don't think too much...
Watching the two drift apart, I cleaned up my mood and continued to walk along the road up the mountain, I think Wei Lin should not have left the main road to run somewhere else, right?
Although I thought so, but I didn't see Wei Lin all the way, which made me more and more anxious, and what made me depressed was that the more I went up the mountain, the more trees there were, and the more trees there were, the more obscured my vision, and in the process of my search, time passed little by little, and finally the sky was completely dark, and the last trace of sunlight was exhausted, announcing the arrival of night.
Without sunlight, darkness quickly shrouded me, and there was no public power supply such as street lights in the countryside, so there was no refraction of light at all, and soon my surroundings became pitch black and difficult to see my fingers.
Fortunately, I brought my mobile phone and turned on the flashlight function, and the light shone out, and my mood was a little calmer.
I took out my mobile phone and I suddenly felt like I was awakened, by the way, there is a mobile phone, Wei Lin has a mobile phone, I can call him and try it!
I immediately dialed Wellin's mobile phone number, expecting him to answer the phone, but all I could do was "Toot... Honk... No one answered.
I was a little disappointed, but I had expected this outcome, but I was curious to know what was wrong with Wellin, it was certainly not his own prank, he looked like he couldn't hear anyone else like he had been sleepwalking not long ago, but it couldn't have been sleepwalking, how could anyone walk and sleepwalk?
He suddenly remembered what Welling had said to me the morning after his first sleepwalk, what was guiding him on this mountain, and what was he attracted to?
After taking a deep breath, I could only put aside all the conjectures in my mind and continue to look for Wehring, and after night fell, there were many insect calls in the mountain forest, and the rustling of the woods from time to time made my heart lift.
The mountain is right next to the village, and I don't think there will be any beasts and large carnivores, but snakes are not necessarily, what if Wei Lin runs around and is bitten by a poisonous snake, what if he falls off a cliff?
My mind began to wander again, and my mind was also confused at the thought of such a possibility, so I shouted Wehrin's name and took my phone around carefully as I walked.
I didn't dare to leave the main road, this mountain is not small, it is so dark at night, I am not familiar with the terrain here, in case I get lost, it will be a joke.
I searched aimlessly until my phone's battery started to alarm me only had 15% battery left, and turning on the flashlight was too much power, and the battery bottomed out all at once.
I can only stop, if the phone runs out of battery and loses the light source, I can't see the road in front of me at all, I can only temporarily go down the mountain to find a way.
I froze and struggled, though I had an urge to keep going, but my reason weighed me down, for it was no joke, and without the lights I could only stumble here like a headless fly, and I would probably get lost.
In the end, after a struggle in the same place, I decided to go down the mountain first, looking at the mountain road in front of me my heart was also full of complications, and finally I stubbornly called Wei Lin's phone again, I hope a miracle can happen, he can answer the phone and say to me: "Hey buddy, what are you calling me for?" ”
Then I scolded him for a bloody head, told him to hurry up and get back, and beat him up again!
Unfortunately, the phone was still the same long beep, and I was disappointed to take the phone away and look at the screen in the dial.
Suddenly, my whole body was shaken!
