"Li Ping", the senior high school girl who suddenly disappeared after being raped by the principal's son more than ten years ago, is also called "Li Ping", she and the girl who left a word on the pillar of the ancient pavilion, will they be the same person?

No! It shouldn't be such a coincidence. The name Li Ping is really common, and people with the same name and surname as her are often dying in school, and almost every grade has them.

I shook my head and dismissed the thought.

Xue Ying seemed to see my thoughts, and asked thoughtlessly, "Now we live in Snow Spring Town, right?" ”

"Not bad." I didn't know what she wanted to say, so I just nodded.

"So do you remember when this place changed from 'Snow Spring Township' to 'Snow Spring Town'?" She smiled meaningfully, and the expression on her face seemed to reveal a silent laugh: "Look at you, do you dare to think that I only have a face and no brains in the future".

It dawned on me that I understood what she meant: "Ten years ago. I gave her a thumbs-up and said, "I know what you're trying to say to me, but it doesn't mean anything." ”

"But it coincides with the timing! I think the girl who carved the words on the pillar should be Li Ping, who disappeared in the school legend. Xue Ying said unconvinced.

"Miss, I believe this message was engraved at least ten years ago, but the name Li Ping is too ordinary. And even if she carved it, so what? It's just that she's caught up in a love triangle and the person she likes is starting to change her mind. This doesn't help anything at all with what we're looking into right now! I scratched my head.

"Nope! A woman's instinct tells me that there is absolutely a lot of truth in this line. Xue Ying said stubbornly.

"Okay, even if you're right, can we put this thing aside?" I surrendered. When a woman is stubborn, there is no reason to talk about it, and it is better to argue with her than to be smart enough to echo her.

"Your tone is so forced, you just don't believe me!" Xue Ying said angrily as she stretched out her right hand to me and said, "Give me the key to the library data room you copied." ”

"What do you want to do?" I was stunned.

Xue Ying turned her head and said angrily: "Of course, I'm going to find evidence to show you." I want to find out how many Li Ping there were ten years ago! ”

"Does it make sense for you to do this?" My head grows up, alas! A woman is a sensual creature that I can't understand as a junior high school student with shallow experience.

"Of course there is, at least you can breathe a bad breath." Xue Ying snorted at me.

I smiled wryly, then pulled her straight towards the right side of the pavilion. If I continue to argue with her, it's going to be dawn, and I'll be looking for a fart by then!

At some point, the wind began to blow more and more fiercely. As soon as I walked into the camphor forest, I was greeted by a cold, humid air, and I tightened my coat and walked cautiously forward. It was dark all around, and the withered yellow light from the street lamps more than ten meters away was already powerless when it hit our feet.

The two lonely tombs are not far away, quietly rising in the darkness of the forest, giving people an inexplicable sense of vicissitudes and weirdness.

Xue Ying, who was still angry with me, was so afraid that she stuck to my side again.

"It's such an uncomfortable place." She whispered in my ear.

I didn't answer her, I just kept looking around, constantly recalling the situation of that night that Lu Ying told me, and all the details.

Slowly walking to the first grave, I dug a small handful of soil on the ground with my hands, rubbed it vigorously in my palm, threw it away, and then looked carefully at the six white camphor trees to the north.

"Remember the story I told you? Lu Ying said that under which white camphor tree did they dig up the baby's body? I turned my head and looked at the two graves intently as I asked Xue Ying.

She thought hard for a moment, and then replied, "He said it was a place with good soil that would not be exposed to the light." ”

"That should be the fourth plant from the left. Only that one is just sandwiched between the shadows of two street lamps, and it is not easy to be found if you dig it up. I frowned and said, "I just don't know if the soil is very soft." After saying that, he walked over and dug hard at the root of the white camphor tree with his hands.

"No, the soil here is hard to death, just like the dry soil next to the grave." Disappointed, I retracted my aching hand and wiped it on my clothes, "And there are indeed no traces of excavation around this tree, ...... strange."

"What's so strange?" Xue Ying asked curiously.

"Don't you believe that there is collective hypnosis in this world?" I shone my flashlight at the top of the tree, letting the aperture move slowly inch by inch, searching carefully, and whispering to her.

"Collective hypnosis?" Xue Ying pouted and said, "You mean that it is often mentioned on TV that a large number of people have the same illusion at the same time?" To be honest, although the radicals are blowing it up, I don't believe it. ”

I laughed, "I don't believe it either." I remember a well-known psychologist once said that everyone thinks differently and has different thoughts in their heads, which makes it very unlikely that two people will fall into the same hallucinations or dreams at the same time. If an illusion is felt by more than three people, it can only indicate one thing: what those three people felt did happen! ”

I looked down at her, and my voice began to grow dry, "Lu Ying once swore that their group had dug under this tree and laboriously knocked open a layer of concrete-like hard objects. When he came here again the next day, he found that there was no trace of excavation under the camphor tree...... What do you think about this? ”

"Didn't you say people are stupid? People are stupid, how can they guess such a profound question? Xue Ying glared at me.

"There are two possibilities." Seeing that she was inexplicably angry again, I had to ask myself: "One is that they did dig somewhere, but that place is definitely not under this tree." The second is that they lie en masse for some reason. ”

Suddenly, I felt Xue Ying's whole body shake violently, she tugged my coat, pointed to the top of her head and said, "I don't think it's very likely that they are lying, don't believe you look at the top." ”

I looked up at the light of the flashlight, the dense branches reflected the light, and in the depths of the leaves, a small blue bag could be faintly seen. My throat became dry and my nerves tensed.

I looked at Xue Ying and took a deep breath, and I said, "It seems that this is our goal tonight." "I handed her the flashlight, and I rubbed my hands together and was about to climb up the tree.

"Do you really want to climb? It's so dangerous, and there are so few branches under this tree! Xue Ying became anxious.

I looked up and smiled wryly, "I don't want to climb either, but if I don't take that bag off tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep for a long time." ”
