Chapter 414: Hanging halfway up the mountain
Gao Lingkai was afraid that Li Junhe would be tired, so he jumped down the depression and wanted to take the shovel in his hand, but Li Junhe shook his head and said that he was not tired.
Gao Lingkai looked at Kishida's fat appearance again, and didn't ask him if he needed to change hands to take a breath, so he walked up directly from the depression.
A few of us were still waiting at the edge of the depression, watching Lee Jun-hyuk and Kishida Kuo swing their shovels and dig down more than a meter deep, I had to say, "Enough, I don't think Shinichi Hashimoto will be buried in such deep soil!" ”
Li Junhe stopped the shovel, but couldn't help but use the shovel to slash at the four walls of the pit, and said: "I just want to see if there will be a pit down here!" ”
"Let's come up, it's all dug so deep, if there is a pit, it should have been dug a long time ago!" I said, stretching out my hand and pulling Lee Jun-hyuk up from the pit.
Gao Lingkai also pulled Kishida Xiong up, and the two were already very tired, and as soon as they came up, they sat on the ground and did not move.
Kishida Xiong was especially gloomy, and I felt some sympathy in my heart, so I took the initiative to open my backpack, took out a water bottle and handed it to Kishida.
Kishida thanked me, but instead of taking my water bottle, he opened his own backpack, took out a kettle, unscrewed it and took a big sip.
The food he brought was inexplicably lost last night, but the drinking water was still there, and when Nabota and Pivaso left this morning, they had left the dry food for him and Gao Lingkai, who had also lost food.
So I ignored Kishida Yu, and when I looked back, I saw Mrs. Bonn looking around with a telescope, and suddenly I stretched out my hand and said, "Look there, there seems to be a car there!" ”
Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, and saw that the half-collapsed mountain was facing her, revealing the yellow-brown dirt hideously, and it still looked terrifying at the moment, as if it would collapse again at any moment.
Against the backdrop of a large area of yellow-brown soil, a dark spot is unusually striking on the mountainside.
It's just that it's too far away to see what the dark spot is.
I didn't bring a telescope, because I was accompanied by Gao Lingkai, and the two of us tried not to repeat some useful things.
At this moment, Gao Lingkai had already taken out the binoculars from his bag, took a closer look in that direction, and said, "It really looks like a car!" ”
He spoke, handing me the binoculars as he returned his hand.
I looked carefully at the bridge of my nose, and sure enough, the black spot looked like a dark green off-road vehicle, but because the car was covered with a lot of loess, I didn't dare to be sure at a glance.
"If it's a car, why would it go so high? Could it have been buried in the mountain before it collapsed? Li Junhyuk muttered to himself.
Of course, I wouldn't think that the car would have been buried in the mountain before it collapsed, but it's strange why the car ran halfway up the collapsed mountainside.
"Anyway, let's go up and have a look! I think it's getting more and more interesting! Bonn said.
"Did you find it interesting? I think...... It's getting scary! Mrs. Bonn said.
In fact, all of us feel the same way as Mrs. Bonn. Kishida's fat body even trembled obviously.
"It's scary, but when it comes to the supernatural, there's nothing that isn't scary, is it?" Bonn said, smiling back at his wife soothingly.
I also think that when it comes to the "supernatural", there is nothing that is not terrible.
And as a "supernatural" investigator with a super high salary, the more terrible it is, the more I should investigate clearly.
So I took a breath and said, "Why don't we just drink and eat something right here, and then climb up the hill and see what the car is all about!" ”
The others had no objection, so we stood or sat down, drank and ate something in front of the pit that had just been dug before heading towards the collapsed mountain.
We didn't go up the hill head-on, it was dangerous and difficult to walk.
So we walked out of the mudslide-covered area and then up the hill along the edge of the collapse.
Mr. and Mrs. Bonn were over forty years old, but they were still very strong, and the rest of us were young and strong, so it didn't take much effort for us to climb up the hill to the level of the buggy.
We first tried to step on the yellow-brown soil layer after the collapse, but fortunately, after so many days of air drying, the soil layer was only slightly damp, but it did not appear very soft.
"It's not dry yet, no one can say if it will collapse again, we husband and wife can risk our lives in order to do research, but you are still young, you have to consider whether to go with us!" Professor Bonn said.
I know Professor Bonn has good intentions, and his fears are not out of the question.
But I definitely couldn't back down, I just looked back at Gao Lingkai and Li Junhe, and said, "Why don't I go over and take a look, you two are waiting for us here!" ”
"No, I'm going over!" Lee Jun-hyuk didn't think about it.
Gao Lingkai also shook his head and said, "We are partners and brothers, the more dangerous the place, the more unlikely it is for me to let you go alone!" ”
I knew his temper and didn't say much at the time, just looked back at Takeo Kishida.
But I saw that the expression on Kishida's face flickered, and he seemed to be a little cringe.
"Why don't Kishida-kun stay here and wait for us, your body is heavier, and it's easier to trample on the floating soil!"
I handed a step to Kishida.
Kishida didn't speak, but there was obvious gratitude in his eyes when he looked at me.
To be on the safe side, we didn't immediately go to the car, but each took out the rope in our backpack and tied one end to our own waist and the other to a large tree next to it that had not collapsed.
Gao Lingkai originally said that he would definitely go with me, but when he saw that Kishida Xiong volunteered to stay where he was, he was not at ease with the Japanese after all, for fear that Kishida Xiong would make trouble after we all left, so in the end he also stayed.
Leaving me and Li Junhyuk and Mr. and Mrs. Bonn, we naturally unloaded our backpacks and let Gao Lingkai and Kishida Xiong take care of them, and the group of four walked along the exposed yellow-brown mountain and cautiously walked to the car in the middle of the mountain.
Strangely, I had the feeling that I was being followed by something.
However, I looked around, left and right, and there was no living thing except a few of us.
Of course, there are no ghosts or anything like that, because I don't feel the cold aura that is unique to ghosts and the like.
"Colliers, what's wrong with you?" Gao Lingkai stood on the edge of the collapsed mountain and shouted.
"It's fine!" I turned around and waved at him.
Just as she was about to continue her journey, Mrs. Bonn, who was walking in front, suddenly flashed under her feet, and a large piece of floating earth was trampled down the hillside by her, and Mrs. Bonn was about to fall with her body crooked.
Li Junhe and I exclaimed in unison, but fortunately, Professor Bonn, who was walking beside Mrs. Bonn, grabbed Mrs. Bonn's arm with his hand.
Mrs. Bonn staggered to her feet, and then gained a footing.
Several of us breathed a sigh of relief, and Professor Bonn said softly to Madame: "Be careful! ”
Mrs. Bonn smiled, and walked cautiously on.
There haven't been any other accidents since then, but I've always had that feeling of being followed.
I even felt that the thing that was following me had passed me and Lee Jun-hyuk and walked to the front, following the Bonns.
But there was nothing else to be seen behind the Bonns, and even the still soft tawny earth was only the footprints of the Bonns.
In other words, if something does follow the Bonns, it is not only invisible, but also weightless.
Then I wondered if there were ghosts or something like that.
It's just that this ghost is different from other ghosts, so I can't feel its chill?
I wanted to ask, but I was afraid of arousing the fear of others, so I could only whisper silently in my heart: "No matter what reason you exist, please contact me!" If you have been persecuted in your lifetime, I will do justice for you! ”
Because ghosts are just brain waves, they can be felt as long as I'm focused on the same question.
But this time I tried to chant for a long time, but I never received any response.
In addition, the floating soil under my feet was in danger of collapsing again at any time, so I couldn't afford to be too distracted.
So I had to put this question aside and stop dwelling on it, as if I was delusional due to high tension.
However, the length of the rope brought by the Bonn couple was not long enough, and they had to untie the rope when they were still five or six meters away from the car.
I considered that Mrs. Bonn was an older woman and that I was lightweight, so I could avoid danger in time even if something happened.
So I took the initiative to untie the rope around my waist and let Mrs. Bonn tie it.
Mrs. Bonn was very grateful, and thanked me one after another.
When Li Junhyuk saw me doing this, he also wanted to give the rope to Bonn, but Bonn politely refused, saying, "I am grateful that you can give a rope to my wife." If anything happens, I'll try to tighten my wife's hand, and there's a rope, so you two can keep it for yourself! ”
When Li Junhe saw him say this, he didn't force it anymore, but just signaled me to stay close to him, so that he could hold me in time when he was in danger.
Fortunately, there was no danger in the remaining five or six meters, and the four of us walked safely to the off-road vehicle.
It was indeed a dark green off-road vehicle, but because the front of the car was covered with dirt, it was as if it had been buried in the soil for a long time, and it was only revealed when the mountain collapsed.
And around the car, we didn't find any imprints. There were no tire prints on the car, and no signs of anyone or other living creatures walking on them.
