31. Eerie fog
Liuzi obeyed the order to go to the car and turn over the flashlight, and disappeared into the shadows. I secretly said in my heart, fortunately, there are many of us, otherwise I would have panicked if I walked such a dark night road alone.
After waiting for nearly twenty minutes, everyone was a little anxious, Zhou Tong paced back and forth, eager to run over to take a look, but Sheng Shiyao didn't speak, he didn't dare to bring it up. Finally heard footsteps, Zhou Tong shouted: "Sixth son? There was an immediate reply from the other end, it was the sixth son who had returned.
But when he walked to the bright place, everyone was taken aback, and Zhou Tong asked in surprise: "Sixth son, what's wrong with you?" I saw that the six sons, who were originally well-dressed, were now full of embarrassment, and there were faint abrasions on their exposed arms. He didn't pay attention to Zhou Tong's question, walked straight to me and Sheng Shiyao, paused when his eyes swept over me, and then said to Sheng Shiyao: "The road ahead really can't be walked, nearly a hundred meters away from here, there is actually a deep pit, more than two meters deep, it doesn't look like it was dug artificially, but it seems that the ground has cracked, but there is no soil accumulation next to it." ”
"Did you fall into that pit?" I couldn't help but ask.
Liuzi nodded, "You don't know, when you walk about fifty meters, there will be fog, and the further you go inside, the fog will become thicker, and the visibility with a flashlight can only be within one meter." When I felt that my feet were empty, it was too late, but fortunately I was quick to grab the bump on the side of the road and climb up from the pit. ”
Strange, how can there be a thick fog? It stands to reason that fog at night cannot be in one place, and at the moment there is no fog around us. The eyes of the three people are focused on Sheng Shiyao, waiting for him to make an idea, I estimate that this situation must not be able to go any further, I don't know if there is any other way to go to Horijo?
Sheng Shiyao pondered for a while before he spoke: "Zhou Tong, you go and see the car first, can you still start?" If you want to be able to start, find a nearby resident to stay overnight, and wait for a long time to see the situation clearly before thinking about how to go. ”
Zhou Tong immediately returned to the car, and soon the engine sound of the car was heard, and it was started. In the end, it is an off-road vehicle, sturdy and crash-resistant, suitable for long-distance running. After a few of us returned to the car, the car reversed and drove back, Zhou Tong said that there was a village just a little bit, you can go there and ask.
Soon arrived at the village that Zhou Tong said, saying that the village was a bit exaggerated, and there were only four or five families in total. At this moment, it was early in the morning, none of the households were still lit, Zhou Tong knocked on one of them, and before he could say a word, the door slammed shut, and there was a scolding voice from inside.
It's no wonder that people were woken up in the middle of the night, and several people in a group said they wanted to stay overnight, who dared to stay? In the end, I was pushed out, saying that it was a girl knocking on the door, and the other party was not so vigilant, they waited at a distance, and shouted if there was a situation.
I had no choice but to go up and choose the easternmost house, and after knocking several times, no one answered the door, and just when I thought there was no one in the house, the door opened. The door was opened by an aunt who looked to be in her fifties, and she asked me with a puzzled look on her face.
I told her about our situation in good faith, and she poked her head out, glanced in the direction of the car I was talking about, and asked, "How many of you are there?" I saw that there was a play, and hurriedly said, "Four people." "I was very nervous when I reported the number, afraid that she would not dare to keep strangers as soon as she heard about our number. But the aunt only frowned slightly, and finally said, "Go and call them over." ”
I was overjoyed, I responded again and again, turned around and ran to the car, and told them about the situation, Zhou Tong smiled and praised: "It's still a little sister, it's better to talk than us rough people." "I was a little embarrassed to be praised, and my eyes couldn't help but drift to Sheng Shiyao, which can be regarded as a return to him, or I really feel like I am playing soy sauce.
