On this day, the three of them were ordered to go to the regiment headquarters to transport a cart of grain seeds back. The next day, before dawn, the three of them set off in a big truck. Lianli was far away from the regimental headquarters, and there were mostly rugged mountain roads in the middle, especially the carriage gorge they passed, which was even more dangerous! Therefore, before leaving, the bearded company commander and Huang Yaju told them to be more careful, don't rush to the road, and be sure to return safely! In order to guard against wild beasts, Guo Jiefang and Li Yuanchao pinned an axe to their waists, and the three of them went to get a rifle and a shuttle bullet for self-defense. The gun was kept by Niu Jianjun, because his marksmanship was the most accurate among the three.

The spring is cold, the weather is still very cold, and the three of them are going to spend the night in the wild, so they all wear dog skin hats and dog skin jackets. After packing up, the three of them spurred their horses and headed down the rugged and bumpy mountain road towards the regimental headquarters.

The headquarters of the regiment was stationed, on the edge of the Inner Mongolian steppe, with its back to the Great Khingan Mountains and facing the Mongolian Plateau. Facing the attack of the Siberian cold snap, many military horses are frozen to death every year in the military horse farm of the regimental headquarters! The frequent sandstorms in spring will make the grassland gray and unangry! At this time, in the Great Xing'an Mountains, it is a bright spring, cherry red and willow green, a charming scenery!

The three of them drove the carriage, sang and laughed all the way, crossed the carriage gorge, and came to the regiment headquarters in a short day. The regiment headquarters is close to the pastoral areas of Inner Mongolia, so there are many herdsmen dressed in festive costumes along the way. When I inquired at the regiment headquarters, I learned that the nearby herdsmen were holding a Naadam conference!

Guo liberated them to go through the formalities in the regiment, loaded the seeds, and sent a person to watch the grain. The other two went around Naadam. In the evening, Officer Li of the regiment headquarters came to call them, saying that the regiment headquarters had killed a few sheep and asked them to attend the welcome party.

Guo Jiefang thought to himself, the leaders of this regiment are too interesting, knowing that they have traveled thousands of miles to transport seeds, and they are tired enough, so they specially slaughtered a few sheep to reward us. It was too late to clean up at the moment, so he followed Officer Li to the regiment headquarters. As soon as I inquired on the way, I realized that the feelings were self-inflicted, and the regiment leaders didn't know that they were nobodies, let alone slaughtering sheep! Tonight's bonfire party is to welcome the model opera tour troupe from Beijing!

Guo Jiefang and Niu Jianjun sent Li Yuanchao back to see the car, and they borrowed a bench from someone and sat next to the fire to watch the model play where people danced for half a night.

The next day, the three of them drove the carriage and walked back. When they left, the weather was a little bad, and when they arrived at the entrance of the carriage gorge, the far side of the grassland behind them was shrouded in dark clouds! The dark clouds are very peculiar, they press low, roll up the ground, and roll in! The three of them were inexperienced, and they all thought that the dark clouds of the grassland should be like this, and they didn't care!

The three of them were outside the carriage gorge, fed and drank enough horses, and tightened the horse's belly belt, Niu Jianjun jumped on the wheel, shook a whip, and shouted to let the car drive into the carriage gorge! The reason why this carriage gorge is called such a strange name is inseparable from its topography and geographical location! As the old saying goes, when a rat enters the bellows--- there is nowhere to hide, and it is the terrain of the Carriage Gorge! The Carriage Gorge is more than 20 miles deep, surrounded by cliffs of more than 1,000 feet, and the road is bumpy and difficult to navigate, which can only accommodate a large car. One side of the road is close to a cliff, and there are rocks sliding from time to time. On the other side of the road is the turbulent Sancha River, a deep valley that has been washed over thousands of years! When the probe looked down, he saw the white waves at the bottom of the valley and the splashing of water. Birds soar under your feet, clouds and mist!

As the Siberian cold airflow into the Great Khing'an Mountains area, the perennial wind speed is extremely high, there is no danger in ordinary days, once it encounters a sandstorm, it is likely to produce a channel effect, it is easy to blow people to the bottom! People who often walk in the Carriage Gorge are most afraid of a natural disaster, and that is Shahuzi! The so-called sand tiger is a sandstorm with hail in it. This kind of weather is terrible, not only can he make people unable to see the road, but he can quickly freeze people to death! To put it mildly, few people who encounter this kind of weather can get out alive! That's why the locals use sand tigers to scare disobedient children!

After entering the carriage gorge, the three of them knew that the climate in the carriage gorge was unpredictable, so they desperately urged the horses to rush forward. When I walked to the middle of the carriage gorge, the wind was blowing behind me! Only then did the three of them realize that the strange black cloud they had seen outside the canyon before was not a dark cloud, but a sand tiger!

The three of them were shocked and whipped the horses to rush out of the carriage gorge before Shahuzi came! But it was too late! The sand tiger was blown near the Carriage Gorge, blocked by the surrounding mountains, and only one road remained in the Carriage Gorge, so the wind speed was not known how many times greater! Sand and hail hit Guo Jiefang's dogskin jacket, and the ping-pong sounded! The cold wind kept running through their necks, freezing the three of them. The horse pulling the cart was also frightened, and it raised its front hooves and neighed loudly! The sack bag full of seeds was lifted off the cart by the horse! Niu Jianjun waved his horsewhip and shouted loudly, trying to calm down the startled horse!

Guo Jiefang covered his dogskin hat on his head and jumped into the car to pull the reins. Li Yuanchao turned his head in horror and looked behind him!

Shahuzi rushed into the carriage gorge and swooped at them! Li Yuanchao's face was pale, his lips trembled, and he shouted hysterically at Niu Jianjun and Li Yuanchao: "Sha······ Tiger ······ Sub-······ Here it is······ Everybody······ Run······!

Guo Jiefang heard Li Yuanchao's voice that changed his tone, stood on the carriage and looked back, only to see that Shahuzi was like a row of towering huge mountains, pressing down on them! He threw away the reins of his horse and shouted at Niu Jianjun, "Run······ Carriage let's ······ Don't ······! ”。

Niu Jianjun dragged the horse's bridle, pointed to a depression on the side of the road and shouted, "Hurry up······ to the inside······ Hide ······! ”。

Guo Jiefang jumped out of the carriage and shouted to Niu Jianjun: "What the fuck are you rubbing? Run, ·····! ”。

Niu Jianjun dragged the carriage and shouted, "You guys go quickly······ Lao Tzu ······ Lao Tzu ······ I'll be ······ in a moment! ”。

At this time, the sand tiger was getting closer and closer, and the sand and hail hit the face painfully, like a knife on the face. The fist-sized rocks at his feet were blown out of position, and the sky suddenly darkened! The temperature also dropped sharply below zero, Guo Jiefang couldn't open his eyes anymore, he groped with his memory, and ran to the nest wind on the side of the road!

As soon as he hid, Shahuzi rushed over with a "boom", and for a while the sand flew away, the sky hung upside down, and it was pitch black all around! I could only hear the loud "whirring" sound made by Sha Huzi when he blew through the gorge of the carriage, as if thousands of war horses suddenly swarmed past him, making an earth-shattering loud noise!

Guo Jiefang felt very cold on his body, almost frozen! He trembled and wrapped his dogskin jacket tightly and arched vigorously to the ground!

When the sky cleared and Guo Jiefang woke up, he found that he had been buried by floating sand and hail, and there was no sound around him······ He picked up the sand and hail, got out of the ground, touched it around, and dragged Li Yuanchao up. I went to find Niu Jianjun again, but I couldn't find it! He hurriedly woke up Li Yuanchao and asked him where Niu Jianjun had gone? Li Yuanchao also couldn't tell where Niu Jianjun went. Guo Jiefang sighed in his heart, thinking that it was broken! Niu Fat, don't let the sand tiger be scraped away!

At that moment, the two of them ran outside to look for it, but where did they find it? Even the wagons and grain seeds are gone!

The two of them stretched their heads and looked into the river valley, only to see that the river was turbulent, pouring for thousands of miles, but where was there a little shadow?

Guo Jiefang stomped his feet and said, "Glasses! The fat man was blown away by the sand tiger! How do we go back and explain! ”。

Li Yuanchao cried whining: "Let's go down and find it!" It's dead······ We're going to get his body back ······ too!" ”。

Guo Jiefang didn't say a word, took Li Yuanchao to find his way down to the bottom of the valley, and went all the way to the lower reaches of the Sancha River!

Guo Jiefang and Li Yuanchao broke into the misty old forest with the glow of the sky above their heads. They searched along the riverbank, and after looking for a short distance, Guo Jiefang found traces of someone crawling out of the river, Guo Jiefang and Li Yuanchao were ecstatic, Guo Jiefang said to Li Yuanchao: "The fat man is really not dead, we have to find him quickly······!" ”。

Li Yuanchao pointed to the direction where the footprints disappeared with some puzzlement, and asked Guo Jiefang, "Why did he go over there?" ”。

Guo Jiefang squatted on the ground, carefully looked at the broken branches and trampled grass around the footprints, touched his chin and muttered: "He should be walking along the river, why did he suddenly change direction?" Is he in trouble······? ”。

Both of them felt that the situation was wrong, but they couldn't guess the reason, Guo Jiefang had to wave his hand and say: "Don't care so much first, let's catch up quickly, don't let the fat man lose his ······ in the old forest!" ”。

The two of them then searched one after the other, searching into the depths of the old forest. They wandered around the east and west in the old forest for a long time, and by noon, they had found traces of Niu Jianjun again.

Guo Jiefang and Li Yuanchao's hearts were originally hanging, so they let go. The two of them drank enough water in the valley stream and sat down on the stones to rest. Li Yuanchao simply took off his shoes and socks and put his feet into the icy stream, which turned around in front of them and merged into a small pond, the bottom of the pond was swaying with green aquatic plants, and the pure white egrets and birds were reflected on the water surface······!

Li Yuanchao looked at the water birds swimming in the pond from a distance, pursed his lips, and shouted to Guo Jiefang unwillingly: "If there is a gun now, I will keep a gun and blow them all ······!" ”。

Li Yuanchao didn't wait for Guo Jiefang to answer, quickly put on his shoes and socks, and ran to the pond with his waist bent. Guo Jiefang didn't care about him at this time, he just picked up the stream water and hurriedly washed his sweaty dirty face, and then folded a grass stalk, put it in his mouth, and fell into contemplation for a long time!

However, his thoughts were soon interrupted by the miserable cry of the heron. Guo Jiefang hurriedly climbed to the nearby stone and looked at the pond, only to see that the originally calm water surface of the pond was somehow stirred up bursts of ripples, and a group of herons hovered in the air, screaming loudly at Li Yuanchao······ ”。

Li Yuanchao stood in the middle of the pond, his clothes soaked and soaked, and further away, ······ A pile of dark clouds rolled in the sky, and there was a faint sound of thunder······! “。

When Li Yuanchao came back, he had a big fish jumping around in his hand. He happily raised the fish in his hand to Guo Jiefang, and at the same time tried hard to pick the gills of the big fish that was struggling desperately, opened his mouth wide, saliva flowed out, and shouted to Guo Jiefang: "Old Guo, there are big fish ······ in the pond!" “。

Both of them were hungry at this time, and from morning to noon they did not eat a grain of rice, Guo Jiefang used an axe to disembowel the fish, and then rinsed it in the stream.

Li Yuanchao gathered firewood and lit a fire, grilled the fish on the fire, and after a while, the roast was full of burnt aroma. Guo Jiefang and Li Yuanchao ate the fish separately, although there was no oil and salt to taste, but the two of them had been hungry for a long time, and they didn't care whether it was good or bad, and after devouring it, they swept away a big fish weighing three or four catties!

After eating, Guo Jiefang wiped his grease mouth with his sleeve, patted his bulging belly again, and beckoned Li Yuanchao and said, "Glasses, full of wine and food, open the road Nimasi ······!" ”。

Li Yuan pouted his buttocks, bowed to Guo Jiefang, and said, "Hey! ”。

The two then followed the footprints left by Niu Jianjun and walked in search of the way, and when they were about to get to the end of the night, Guo Jiefang and Li Yuanchao finally found the lost Niu Jianjun in a ravine.

When Niu Jianjun saw his acquaintance, he was stunned at first, then hugged Guo Jiefang tightly with a handful of snot and tears, and refused to let go. Guo Jiefang finally broke his tight fingers and asked him what was wrong? Niu Jianjun said with a crying voice: "I was blown into the river by Shahuzi, and I climbed ashore and walked around in this ravine, but I couldn't get out······ Well, now that our Central Red Army has finally met the division, Lao Tzu has finally found the party organization ······! ”。

Niu Jianjun wiped his eyes with his sleeve, smiled awkwardly and said, "I thought I would never see you again······!" ”。

Seeing Niu Jianjun crying on the side, he couldn't help but sneer: "Okay······ Alright······ Howl twice, you kid is still ······! ”。

Although Niu Jianjun lost his prestige, he was still unwilling, and shouted at Li Yuanchao with big eyes: "Who the howled? Glasses, you kid made it clear······! ”。

Guo Jiefang saw that the two of them pinched as soon as they met, and he also felt a headache, he grabbed Niu Jianjun and asked him why he drilled into the old forest halfway? Niu Jianjun said that he had planned to walk along the river, but as soon as he walked far, he felt that someone was following him. At first, he thought that Lian Li had sent someone to look for him, so he turned back to look for it, but he suddenly saw a black shadow covered with long hair, and the black shadow disappeared in a flash······! ”。

Although Niu Jianjun only glanced at it, he saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly, the black shadow had a long hair shawl and black fangs, and he didn't know if it was a human or a ghost······ When Niu Jianjun saw such a monster behind him, he was so frightened that he couldn't distinguish between the east and the west, and he got into the old woods at the moment!

Guo Jiefang heard Niu Jianjun say that there were monsters by the river, so he guessed: "Are you dazzled?" Seeing a blind bear as a monster? ”。

Niu Jianjun said categorically: "I swear to Chairman M, that thing is definitely not a bear blind!" ”。

Li Yuanchao couldn't help but interject and said, "Could that be a nearby hunter?" ”。

Niu Jianjun shook his head and said, "It won't be a human, let alone an Orion!" ”。

Guo Jiefang couldn't ask anything for a while, so he said to Li Yuanchao and Niu Jianjun: "We can't get out tonight······ You'll have to find a place to camp first! ”。 So the three of them walked along the ravine, and after walking for a long time, they saw that the sun had gone down, and they did not see the end of the ravine.

The surroundings gradually became dark, and there were dark shadows around them, and nothing could be seen clearly. Guo Jiefang was secretly anxious in his heart, thinking: "This ravine is evil! After walking for so long and not seeing a head, is there no end to it? ”。 As he was walking, Niu Jianjun was behind Guo Jiefang, and suddenly asked angrily: "Old Guo, are we bumping into a ghost?" Why can't you see your head now? ”。

Guo Jiefang turned around and gave Niu Jianjun a slap in the neck, and scolded: "What are you yelling about? Where's the ghost? ”。

Li Yuanchao squeezed up from behind, covered Guo Jiefang's mouth, lowered his voice and said, "Old Guo, you should be quiet······ Don't really invite ghosts! ”。 Then, pointing behind him, he continued, "We seem to have tails behind us······ His grandmother's, I don't know what it is······! ”。

Guo Jiefang didn't feel how terrible this small ravine was just now, but now after listening to Li Yuanchao's words, he suddenly felt that the wind suddenly rose on all sides, and there were ghosts everywhere!

Guo Jiefang swallowed nervously, leaned into Li Yuanchao's ear and said, "What have you seen?" ”。

Li Yuanchao couldn't help but look behind him, grabbed Guo Jiefang's arm and said, "I didn't see it clearly, if I saw it clearly, it wouldn't be so terrible······!" ”。

Guo Jiefang pulled the axe out of his waist and copied it in his hand. He stared into the weeds and trees behind him, but found nothing.

The three of them stood quietly on the ground, the sky was completely dark, and there was a dead silence around, only the sound of insects, intermittently coming out of the grass from inside. A scorched yellow and blood-colored moon jumped over the treetops, climbed to the top of the ditch, and sprinkled the faint yellow light from the sky!

Guo Jiefang saw that Li Yuanchao, Niu Jianjun, and the two of them were pale, and knew that they were scared enough, so he deliberately shouted loudly to the shadow of the tree behind him: "Who is hiding behind?" If you have a kind of hurry up and get out of Lao Tzu, and then dare to pretend to be a ghost and scare people, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite! ”。

But there was no life behind them, only the mountain wind blew past them, shaking the leaves and grass, and making a rattling sound, as if answering his question······!

Guo Jiefang spread his hands and had the courage to joke to Niu Jianjun and Li Yuanchao: "I said no, right? Look at your frightened looks, where are the ghosts? You two find me one, so that I can also pay my respects? I don't believe in evil anymore, where did this bright and bright world come from? ”。

Before Guo Jiefang's words were finished, he saw a tree by the ditch, the leaves were trembling, and after a while, a human head ······ sticking out from the leaves!

The man was pale and disheveled, with a long, blood-red tongue. The three of them took advantage of the moonlight to see the man's head clearly!

The three of them were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out, and they pulled each other backwards, and the man didn't seem to notice the three of them, and after probing his head in the tree, he suddenly fell from the tree.

The human head bounced on the ground a few times, and then rolled to Guo Jiefang and them. Guo Jiefang glanced underground, and the eyes of the man's head also happened to stare at him, Guo Jiefang was bold, and he couldn't help but feel furious!

How could the three of them ever see such a terrifying and strange thing? Li Yuanchao couldn't hold his breath at first, and screamed in fright, and the three of them all exclaimed together: "Ghost! ”。 They all turned their backs, flipped their legs, and fled without their lives!

I don't know how far I ran out, until I had no strength anymore, everyone stopped, Niu Jianjun and Li Yuanchao lay on the side of the road, vomiting out the contents of their stomachs.

Guo Jiefang also felt that his stomach was tumbling for a while, he stabilized his mind, and while panting heavily, he found that the three of them were running around, but they had been going around in circles!

Guo Jiefang kicked Niu and Li who were lying on the ground and vomited wildly, and said, "Did you see it clearly just now? What the hell is that? ”。

Niu Jianjun raised his head, wiped his lips and said, "It looks ······ It seems to be a human head! ”。

Li Yuanchao also shouted: "It's still dragging a long ······ What a long tongue······ I think it must be a hanged man······! ”。

Guo Jiefang sat on the ground and said to himself: "Fucking evil door! It's such a broken ravine, you can't get out no matter how you go, but there is such a strange thing happening again······! ”。

Niu Jianjun vomited until there was nothing left to vomit, then he turned over and sat up, complaining: "This is running for a while······ I almost turned Lao Tzu's stomach and intestines upside down······! I said, Commander Guo, do you have anything to eat? I haven't eaten for a day and a night! ”。

Guo Jiefang patted his empty pocket and said, "You deserve to starve to death, see if you dare to run into the old forest?" ”。

Li Yuanchao vomited enough and lay on the ground, swallowing his saliva, and said with palpitations: "Hey, hey······ It was so fucking scary, who would have thought that thing could fall out of a tree? I tell you, I was in this heart······ It's about to pop out of my throat! ”。

Guo Jiefang relieved himself at this time and discussed with Li Yuanchao and Niu Jianjun, should they continue to go outside? Or wait here until dawn?

Li Yuanchao said that he would not leave, he said that now there is really a ghost coming, and he can't run!

Niu Jianjun also advocated waiting for dawn to talk about it.

So the three of them went under a big tree by the ditch, pulled some grass with their hands, put it on the ground, and lay down on it to rest. Guo Jiefang tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep. At this time, the moon had reached the middle of the sky, and the small moon shadow, from the gap in the branches, projected onto the bodies of the three people, and the mottled moonlight slowly moved ······ with the passage of time!

Guo Jiefang half-opened his eyes, and dimly found that there was a white shadow under the tree, jumping and wriggling in the moonlight······ Guo Jiefang was originally dazed, frightened by this white shadow, and he was completely sleepy, he thought of the white miserable human head that fell from the tree, and he unconsciously had a layer of goosebumps on his body.

He didn't dare to look closely at the white shadow, so he gently poked Li Yuanchao who was lying next to him, Li Yuanchao was sleeping sweetly at this time, and he poked him, and said vaguely in his mouth: "What are you doing!" And let it not let people sleep······! ”。 After saying that, I turned over and fell asleep again!

Guo Jiefang saw that he was not awake, so he whispered in his ear: "Glasses! There seems to be a situation ······! ”。

Li Yuanchao opened his eyes violently and asked Guo Jiefang, "What do you say?" ”。

Guo Jiefang put his finger to his mouth, and pointed in the direction of Bai Ying, Li Yuanchao's head was not yet awake, he muttered: "What do you see again, mysterious and ······?" ”。 He put on his glasses and looked in the direction pointed by Guo Jiefang.

Guo Jiefang was groping for an axe in the grass, and asked Li Yuanchao in a low voice: "Do you see what it is?" ”。

Li Yuanchao looked at it carefully for more than ten seconds, then turned his face back and stammered, "Look······ I can't see it clearly, but I ······ Will it ······ Or the hanged man? ”。

Guo Jiefang shook his head, saying that he didn't know, and then he pointed to Niu Jianjun, who was lying beside him and snoring like thunder, and said, "Let him see, this kid's eyes are better than both of us!" ”。

Li Yuanchao woke up Niu Jianjun and asked him to watch again. But he couldn't see the reason, the three of them had to sit on the ground, six eyes, staring at the white shadow under the tree, the three hearts were beating in the chest, where was there still a little sleep?
