There was still more than a month left in the summer vacation, and Ah Ci felt a little tired of staying in the villa.

It just so happened that Liang Zhan proposed to go backpacking to see the scenery along the way and eat delicious food from various places. Ah Ci was moved when she heard this.

Growing up so big, the farthest place I went to was the Qingshi Mountain Orphanage, which was a terrible memory.

Ah Ci quickly flipped through the book in his hand and thought for a while, "I'll ask Yu Fengmian." ”

Liang Zhan: "Uncle is really, he should also let you go outside to break through, have a long experience, and be trapped in the villa every day, what can you grow?" ”

"I think I hear someone saying bad things about me?" Yu Fengmian stared at Liang Zhan with half-squinted eyes.

Liang Zhan shuddered, subconsciously stood up and said, "No, I was still saying just now, uncle, you are really a competent father, and you discipline you really well." ”

Ah Ci put down the book in his hand and stepped forward and said, "I want to go out for a walk." ”

Originally, Ah Ci thought that Yu Fengmian would embarrass her somewhat, but she didn't want Yu Fengmian to think about it too much, so she agreed.

"You should go out and see each other more, there is still more than a month left in the summer vacation, so you can go out for a walk with Liang Zhan."

Liang Zhan clapped his hands excitedly: "Great! Uncle, you are really reasonable. ”

"How long are you going to go?" Yu Fengmian asked.

Ah Ci subconsciously looked at Liang Zhan, Liang Zhan thought for a while and said, "About half a month." ”

"Hmm." Yu Fengmian: "I approved." ”

A trip that was just a matter of going, and the luggage was ready that night. Ah Ci went to bed early, but woke up at about four o'clock in the morning.

Maybe I slept too early yesterday and can't sleep now. She simply got up and washed up, and changed into a new dress.

Summer was bright early, it was about to be five o'clock, the sky was already gray, and Ah Ci walked into the courtyard, still with the cool smell of the night.

The air is so good! Ah Ci breathed hard. It smells of earth and grass.

A gust of morning breeze passed, and Ah Ci only felt that there seemed to be a trace of strangeness flashing in front of the window on the second floor, and she subconsciously looked up and saw a figure standing in front of the window, smiling at her in the still dim morning light.

Is that...... Yu Fengmian? Ah Ci's heart missed a beat, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully again, but the window was already blank, and he could no longer see any figure.

Delusion? The man standing in front of the window. It should be Yu Fengmian...... Right? But Yu Fengmian has a leg problem, and she has never seen Yu Fengmian stand up.

In the early morning, when it was breakfast, Ah Ci looked at Yu Fengmian from time to time.

Yu Fengmian felt her strange eyes and looked up at her: "What's wrong?" ”

Ah Ci: "I went for a walk in the yard this morning and saw you standing in front of the window. ”

The spoon in Yu Fengmian's hand fell on the plate with a 'clang', if Yu Fengmian just smiled, Ah Ci no longer had any doubts, he only thought that he had read it wrong.

But now looking at Yu Fengmian's expression, the chance of being wrong is extremely small, "In the end." Isn't it you? ”

A trace of solemnity flashed on Yu Fengmian's face, he took a tissue and wiped his mouth, and replied coldly: "No." ”

Ah Ci looked at Yu Fengmian's face, trying to see the flaws on his face, but unfortunately, he covered it up so that Ah Ci couldn't see anything.

"Wait a minute, Liang Zhan will come and pick me up."

"Well, I wish you all a great trip." Yu Fengmian smiled at Ah Ci.

Yu Fengmian ......" Ah Ci wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed back.

"Go ahead and see what else you have to tidy up, no more outside than at home."

Home? Ah Ci's heart tightened, yes, I don't know when, she has regarded this place as her home, she and Yu Fengmian are relatives, and they are an inseparable whole.

"Well, I'll go back to my room first." Ah Ci returned to the room with an indifferent face, she stood at the window and looked at the scene in the courtyard, only to see Shirley pushing Yu Fengmian towards the flower room.

If it weren't for the incident in the morning, Ah Ci would never have been suspicious of Fengmian and Shirley, but now, she seems to be isolated from them, and they have a common secret.

She became more and more curious, Yu Fengmian's secret, everything he had, she wanted to know.

A taxi suddenly stopped outside the hospital, and it was Liang Zhan coming. Ah Ci was about to take the salute and go out, but Lao Mo walked in first, and said with a smile: "Miss Ah Ci, Liang Zhan is here, I'll take the luggage down for you." ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Mo."

When the two went down the stairs, Lao Mo said: "Mr. said that there is no need to greet him when he leaves, he is busy in the flower room now." ”

Ah Ci thought for a while and asked more: "What has he been busy with lately?" ”

Lao Mo: "It seems to be preparing a new incense." ”

"Oh." Ah Ci thoughtfully.

Liang Zhan didn't come in, and waited outside the door for a while, only to see Ah Ci and Lao Mo walking out. Lao Mo put the luggage in the trunk and said to Liang Zhan: "Miss Aci will take care of you all the way." ”

Liang Zhan smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, Lao Mo, it's fine with me." ”

Lao Mo smiled at Ah Ci, took out a mobile phone and handed it to Ah Ci: "Mr. prepared it for Miss Ah Ci, saying that Miss Ah Ci can call him at any time if she encounters difficulties." ”

Ah Ci was surprised, and Liang Zhan saw the excitement in Ah Ci's eyes for the first time. Ah Ci opened the phone and found the address book, only Yu Fengmian's number.

Ah Ci dialed Yu Fengmian's number, and not long after, the other end answered the phone.

"Yu Fengmian, I'm leaving. Come back and bring you a gift. ”

Yu Fengmian smiled: "It seems that I have to look forward to the gift that Aci wants to bring me back." Have a nice trip and have fun. ”

Ah Ci answered lightly, hung up the phone, and got into the car with Liang Zhan.

At first, it was quite smooth, Ah Ci followed Liang Zhan anyway, not in a hurry, every time Ah Ci walked to a new place, he would take pictures and send them to Yu Fengmian.

After coming out for a week, Ah Ci's mood was different, and she always felt much more relaxed and cheerful.

Liang Zhan said: "You, you should go out for a walk more, you will be suffocated at home." ”

Ah Ci glanced at Liang Zhan, took his mobile phone and took a photo of the sea, and sent it to Yu Fengmian.

Liang Zhan glanced at her phone and sighed: "You are interested in Fengmian...... It seems very different. It's lukewarm to others, when will you be able to smile at me? ”

Ah Ci gave Liang Zhan a look and let him experience it for himself.

After that, they traveled all the way south, followed a tour group, and prepared to go to the place to play on their own. Unexpectedly, the car broke down in the middle of the road, and all the passengers in their car were lost on the road.

The staff who led the group hurriedly contacted the car and said to everyone: "I just called and found the car, don't panic, where should you go, where do we have to go, the weather is hot, take care more, it's cooler over there, don't stand in the middle of the road." ”

In the middle of the night, the car still didn't come, and the person and the driver didn't know where to go.

Ah Ci and Liang Zhan sat side by side. Liang Zhan is very optimistic: "You see, it's interesting to come out, so many times you have traveled, how many times can you encounter a car that breaks down halfway?" ”

Ah Ci glanced at him lightly, it was hot and mosquitoes biting, and several girls were about to cry, complaining: "I knew I wouldn't come out." ”

"Call that guide and see where he is?"

Someone called the tour guide, and the tour guide said that he was going to pick up the master who was repairing the car with the driver, and if it didn't work, he would have to call a tow truck to pull the car away.

After comforting these members a few more times, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

Liang Zhan didn't know how to take out a fan with a small advertisement from it, fanned Ah Ci, and said with a smile: "Miss, I'm interesting enough, right?" Have you ever fallen in love with me? ”

Ah Ci looked at Liang Zhan like an idiot, snatched the fan in his hand, and became self-reliant.

It was already one o'clock in the morning, and the car hadn't come yet.

Liang Zhan, who was very calm and optimistic at the beginning, couldn't help muttering at this time: "The tour guide and the driver won't just run away, right?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a very dilapidated small minibus drove not far away, and stopped in front of them.

The passenger got up and walked over, but no one came out, and someone stepped forward and knocked on the glass, and the man lowered the window.

"Are you the car called by Tour Guide Liu?"

The driver's expression was very wooden, especially the eyes, lifeless, and scary to look at.

After waiting for a while, the driver nodded.

The girls got into the car first, "No matter what, no matter how dilapidated the car is, it's still a car, I just want to get out of this hellish place first." If any of you want to come up, come up quickly. ”

After that, a few more men got on board, and this small minibus could seat up to twelve people, which was far from enough.

Because it was not full, the driver had not yet driven. A few girls who were waiting impatiently shouted at Liang Zhan and them: "Little brother, there are just two left, are you coming up?" ”

Liang Zhan glanced at Ah Ci and asked, "Shall we go up?" If you wait, maybe there will be a little bit of the car behind. Anyway, it's already time to wait. ”

Most of the passengers who stay now have such a mentality, the weather is too hot, and they want to wait for an air-conditioned car.

See that they do not go. The girl didn't stop, and called a few more times: "Come up, we are the same age, and we can still have a care along the way, where are you going?" ”

Liang Zhan looked at Ah Ci again: "What do you say?" ”

Ah Ci seemed to see through Liang Zhan's careful thinking at a glance, obviously she wanted to go, and she had to pretend to be serious to ask her.

Ah Ci got up and walked forward, Liang Zhan smiled, took the salute and followed.

Not long after the dilapidated car left, the tour guide Liu brought a new bus over. He got out of the car and looked at the number of people, and wondered: "Where have some other people gone?" ”

The tourist said: "Didn't a van come to pick up people half an hour ago?" A small minibus, the kind that seats twelve people. ”

Tour Guide Liu touched the back of his head in a panic and annoyance: "That's not the car I called, and if I call a car, it will definitely not be called that, I have so many travelers......"

Tourist: "So, who picked them up?" ”

"You guys get in the car first." Guide Liu started to call in annoyance, but strangely enough, no one answered on the other end.

……

Fortunately, it rained in the second half of the night, and the dilapidated minibus was not so stuffy, and everyone fell asleep. Only Ah Ci was still awake.

Liang Zhan yawned a few times, glanced at the energetic Ah Ci, and wrinkled his eyebrows: "You're not sleepy?" ”

Ah Ci was silent for a while and asked Liang Zhan: "You said you like your sister." ”

"Huh?" Liang Zhan was stunned for a long time before he reacted: "I liked your sister before." ”

"Then you like those girls too?"

"I ......" Liang Zhan couldn't cry and laughed: "It's good-looking, of course I'll look at it twice." Your sister is ...... I'm sorry. ”

Ah Ci glanced at Liang Zhan coldly, the liking in their mouths, how light it should be, so light that it was insignificant.

Liang Zhan sighed: "Don't think about it, sleep on my shoulder for a while, it will be dawn soon." ”

As he spoke, Liang Zhan patted Ah Ci on the back. Ah Ci blinked tiredly, indeed sleepy. She leaned on Liang Zhan's shoulder and fell asleep unconsciously.

I don't know how long I drove, the car shook badly, Ah Ci woke up first, looked at the surrounding scene through the window, and she pushed Liang Zhan.

Liang Zhan twisted his eyebrows, pinched the bridge of his nose and woke up: "What's wrong?" ”

"Where is this?"

"Huh?" Liang Zhan looked out the car window and was startled, and the narrow mountain road spiraled up. On the right hand side is a cliff that cannot be seen at a glance, without any guardrails, once the driver is distracted, the person who falls down destroys the car and dies.

Liang Zhan shouted: "Master, where are we going?" It doesn't seem that the reported group is taking this route, right? ”

But the driver didn't answer him, the more the car was bumpy, Liang Zhan was so frightened that he grabbed the chair and said to Ah Ci: "Be careful and hold on to me, if you fall, I will jump out of the window with you in my arms." Maybe we still have a chance to live. ”

"Hmm." Ah Ci obediently grabbed his clothes, seeing her rare obedient appearance, Liang Zhan couldn't help laughing, a doting smile that he didn't even notice.

Liang Zhan's shout woke everyone up, and everyone saw the scene outside, and they were all frightened.

"Where are we going? Uncle, why don't you speak? Where did our guide go? ”

"Yes, it's not this route that we reported!"

"Otherwise, it's better to return the money, we won't go, what's so fun in this deep mountain and wilderness?"

The driver seemed a little impatient. Roared: "Stop arguing! ”

Everyone was startled, and suddenly quieted down, and someone played a round field and said in detail: "Everyone should stop arguing, such a dangerous road, the master estimates that he has to concentrate, for everyone's safety, let's bear with it, and when we bypass this mountain road, let's talk about it." ”

So there was a sudden silence in the car. Liang Zhan took out the dry food and handed it to Ah Ci: "Eat some?" It's almost noon now, and I don't know when I'll stop. ”

Ah Ci silently took Liang Zhan's snacks and ate a few bites, and suddenly the girl who asked them to get into the car turned her head and said to Liang Zhan: "Handsome guy, can I borrow your mobile phone to use it?" ”

"Huh?"

"I don't have a signal on my phone right now, and I want to call back."

Liang Zhan took out his mobile phone to unlock it, twisted his eyebrows and said, "Mine has no signal, you see." ”

As he spoke, he handed his mobile phone to the girl, and the girl looked helpless and complained: "What kind of place is this?" There wasn't even a signal, and the tour guide was now gone. I want to go home......"

Liang Zhan glanced at the girl. He persuaded: "Bear with me, see where they are going to take us." ”

The little sister of the girl next to her sneered: "Where else can I go?" Isn't it just trying to make money? The current tourism industry is not like this, regardless of the will to pull tourists through, and then forced to ask for money, it seems that this time we are on the road. ”

"Not really, right?" Liang Zhan exclaimed: "I inquired about the reputation of this tourism company is still very good, and we chose a high-end route, as for this money, it has damaged its reputation?" ”

"The rivers and lakes are dangerous, young man." The short-haired girl interjected, "Where are you?" ”

Liang Zhan smiled and pointed to the sky: "I'm from Mars, where are you, beauty?" ”

The girl gave him a blank look: "Mercury." ”

Liang Zhan: "Oh, it's a pity. Fire and water don't get along. ”

Girl: "Boring! ”

Liang Zhan smiled at Ah Ci awkwardly, and Ah Ci gently spit out two words from his red lips, extremely contemptuous: "Swing." ”

After a period of complaining, maybe everyone gradually got used to this environment, the atmosphere relaxed a little, and began to fight again, and this tour group was made up of some young people.

And the oldest person in the car is only twenty-five years old, so everyone is familiar with it. They all call him Brother Feng.

Brother Feng is a photographer, and he said that he likes to go to various places to find different beautiful scenery to take pictures, and every time he takes a beautiful photo, he can feel happy.

The most beautiful girl in the car is called Tian Youzhen, Youzhen is a young actress, but she is not famous yet.

The girl who asked Liang Zhan to get in the car, one of them was a sophomore, named Mai Xiaojie, and the short-haired one who quarreled with Liang Zhan was called Linnaeus.

……

Ah Ci quickly wrote down their physiognomy and strengths, as well as their professions. The car finally stopped, and the driver got out of the car first, standing outside and waiting.

They sat in the car and saw a group of people outside the car, who seemed to be villagers here, with a stiff smile on their faces, and a little girl who was being held by her mother, holding the doll in her hand, and her mouth was open and closed as if she was chewing something.

They sat in the car and felt like lambs to the slaughter. They didn't want to get out of the car, and the eyes of the villagers around them seemed to be looking at some fresh food, which made people panic.

But sitting in the car all the time was not a solution, and under the watchful eyes of the villagers, they could only get out of the car one by one.

Ah Ci probably counted the villagers, and the population was not large, only about 30 people.

At this time, an old woman on crutches walked out and said with a smile: "Welcome to our Longevity Village, please enjoy everything in the village." ”

Several people looked at each other. I just thought too much about it before. Under the leadership of these villagers, they entered the village, where there were not many houses, and many of the dilapidated adobe houses had human-tall grass growing in them.

Their lives were extremely simple, and some people lived in houses without even a good bedding, and the tea bowls and cups were covered with a layer of dark dust, as if they had not been washed for a long time.

The men were taken to the village chief's house, where he made them tea, but no one dared to drink it.

It's Brother Feng, who is very curious to take pictures everywhere, for him, this place is quite pristine.

Brother Feng came back after taking the photo and asked, "I want to ask, do you have a place to get water here?" I want to go there and take a few pictures. ”

The village chief stood up and said, "Follow the mountain road ahead and you will find a water source, but it is best to return to the village before dark, there is something strange there." ”

"Strange stuff?" Brother Feng asked.

The village chief's face suddenly changed, and he was very unhappy: "When you come here, you have to abide by the rules here. ”

The atmosphere that had eased a little just now suddenly stiffened again.

Brother Feng didn't care, he raised the camera in his hand, "Who will accompany me to the water source to have a look, the lighting is good, anyway, it's better to enjoy it." ”

A few of the girls who came with Linnaeus seemed to have a good impression of Brother Feng and raised their hands enthusiastically.

"I, I'm going."

"I'll go too."

……

Tian Youzhen flicked his long nails that were very delicate, and pouted: "I advise you not to run around, this unfamiliar place, what if one of them can't come back?" ”

"Tian Youzhen. What are you talking about? Wouldn't you just stay here by yourself? "These girls seem to be getting along happily on the surface, but they seem to be looking at each other unpleasantly.

Watching the three girls leave with Brother Feng, Tian Youzhen sneered coldly: "It's really sick, I can't wait to pounce when I see a man." ”

Linnaeus: "Youzhen, don't be so snarky, okay?" Do you know that since you became an actor, your whole person has changed? ”

Tian Youzhen sneered: "Can you be the same as me?" ”

Linnaeus: "You...... Forget it, just let me not say it. ”

With that, Linnaeus walked out of the house in a rage.

The rest of the people sat bored, looking a little nervous and scared, and none of them said much.

Liang Zhan suddenly stepped forward. He whispered, "Don't you think it's strange here?" There is an eerie atmosphere everywhere. ”

Ah Ci glanced at Liang Zhan, nodded by default, stood up and walked out, Liang Zhan was afraid that she was in danger, so he hurriedly followed.

"Ah Ci, where are you going? It's best not to run around now. ”

Ah Ci glared back at him sharply and made a silent gesture. Liang Zhan took a deep breath and silently followed behind her.

The villagers who were still there just now suddenly disappeared all of a sudden, and they didn't know where they had gone.

Liang Zhan looked around: "Strange, what about people?" Where did all those people go? ”

Ah Ci shook his head: "I don't know, don't talk too loudly." ”

Liang Zhan twisted his eyebrows: "What did you find?" ”

Ci: "Not yet, I thought I'd be walking around first." ”

Liang Zhan said: "Look at it here, it looks like a building in the 60s, hiding in this mountain nest, most of it was hidden from the war and hiding from small Japan at that time." ”

Ah Ci replied softly: "Hmm." ”

Liang Zhan: "Have you noticed that their houses don't look like living people at all?" ”

Ah Ci suddenly paused, turned around uncertainly and asked again: "What you just said, say it again." ”

Liang Zhan: "That house doesn't look like a living person has ever lived in. ”

Ah Ci thought for a moment: "Just now did you notice how many other houses are occupied by people?" ”

Liang Zhan pointed to the left front: "Over there, there is a room, I saw the little girl holding the doll go in, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”
