Meng Fan turned his head to look at the pine forest, and his skin suddenly stirred up small bumps. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the Masson pine forest behind, hundreds of pine trees stood quietly, motionless and straight, like guards; Under the trees, there is a dim shade of trees, like countless dancing ghosts, and on the invisible back of the pine, there is a hidden ill-intentioned gaze.

This gaze seems to have substance, shining on the body cold, making people tremble.

Who's snooping?!

Meng Fan's arm instantly turned into green tendons, and he subconsciously wanted to draw the knife, but the next moment, he blinked his eyelids again and again, and even rubbed his eyes, but the silence in the forest was still there, and there was nothing unusual, and the strange scene before was like a phantom.

"Am I being too careful?"

Meng Fan whispered and frowned, obviously that gaze made him creepy, but when he looked at it carefully, he found nothing.

"Meng Er, why are you stunned? Keep up. Li Yongan shouted from the front.

Meng Fan was interrupted from his thoughts, and hurriedly answered, "Here."

The procession continued to walk towards the northeast, convinced that if they moved in this direction, they would return to their original path sooner or later, but Meng Fan was worried, and he counted the distance silently as he went: three hundred steps, five hundred steps, eight hundred steps......

When he counted "eight hundred and fifty steps", his heartstrings could not help but tremble, if he was not mistaken, at this time, a second pine forest should have appeared in front of him, and he would walk out after "four hundred and twenty steps". But what was in front of me was a low, rolling hill, with the trees closest to you miles away.

How is this possible?!

I started from the same place and walked in the same straight direction, but the second time I arrived at a different place!! It's like opening the door of your own house, the first time you enter the bedroom, but the second time you enter the living room, it's unbelievable.

Meng Fan was stunned for a while, the team had already gone away, he felt inexplicably panicked, looked at his unaware companions, and for a moment did not know how to tell them the gloomy news: we have lost our way...

In order to avoid panic in the team, Meng Fan did not choose to share the pressure, he took a deep breath, temporarily abandoned the distractions in his head, and chased forward in small steps.

...

...

The team moved forward silently, time was consumed, and physical strength was decreasing little by little.

After half an hour, they climbed a hill no more than three hundred meters long, and a small patch of trees occupied the top of the mountain, and camphor trees twenty or thirty meters high could be seen everywhere, and there were many trees that could not be named, and the ground was covered with yellow leaves, which had been piled up for a long time at least three fingers thick.

When they arrived, the temperature dropped suddenly, and everyone walked in the shade of the trees, not even feeling the heat.

Li Yong dared to order to rest here for a while, and everyone howled, sat on the spot, each took out the dry food in the package, and ate it in a big gulp.

"Five thousand six hundred steps."

Meng Fan stopped under a conspicuous camphor tree, took a knife and slashed three times horizontally on the tree, and marked the small line of Arabic numerals "5600", and after thinking for a moment, he carved another letter - D.

Suppose the starting point is a masson pine forest, that is, A, the next masson pine forest is B, the bamboo forest is C, and this camphor forest is D. Head northeast, starting from point A, first reaching point B, then passing point C, and finally going back to point A, until you reach point D, and the situation is clear at a glance.

But according to common sense, this situation cannot happen at all, because walking in a straight line is completely impossible to return to the origin unless you circle the planet, and it is still done in a very short time and distance. So there is only one answer: the wrong direction.

Only under the condition of being guided in the wrong direction can it be possible to run around within the four points of ABCD, always thinking that it is walking in the northeast direction, but in fact it has already deviated unconsciously. Thankfully, the problem was detected in time, and it was not difficult to get out of the area as long as you found the right reference.

Meng Fan subconsciously glanced into the sky, because as long as he saw the row of iconic towering giant trees in the forbidden area of Tree Hutong, it was equivalent to determining the west, but the lush branches and foliage around him covered the sky, and he couldn't see anything except the green in his eyes.

"Meng Er, come here!"

Just as Meng Fan wanted to exit the forest, he suddenly heard Li Yongfu's shout, he looked for the sound and chased after him, and saw several people in front of him forming a circle.

"What's the matter?" Meng Fan asked.

"Look," said Li Yongdare, pointing in a circle, "there's a corpse here!" ”

Corpse?

Meng Fan walked into the circle, and sure enough, he saw a corpse sitting under the tree in the center, it had no flesh and skin tissue, only a miserable white skeleton, not so much a corpse, but a dry bone.

If you look closer, you can see that there are several hollow holes in the skull, which are vaguely recognizable as human heads.

"Looks like he's been dead for years." Li Yong dared to say faintly in the rear.

Meng Fan nodded, thinking in his heart, "Why is there a skeleton here, and why did he die here?" He turned around and wanted to ask, but saw that the group was suspicious, so he simply shut up.

Under his feet was a layer of soft fallen leaves, accompanied by the sound of "click", Meng Fan saw a dry bone stepping on the sole of his foot, he swept it with his foot, and cleared the thick fallen leaves around him, and several bones were immediately revealed.

"There should be more than one dry bone, you can look for it." After Meng Fan finished speaking, he walked straight towards the corpse under the tree, vaguely feeling that he would make some big discoveries here.

The skeleton under the tree remains in a sitting and lying position, and it is conceivable that he died in a peaceful meditative posture during the last period of his life. On the skeleton, there are still pieces of cloth clothes, but after washing by time and environment, the original color of the cloth clothes can no longer be seen, and because of the moisture, a layer of moss grows on the cloth clothes and the bones.

Dry bones under the trees, nameless lonely souls.

Meng Fan suddenly felt boundless loneliness and loneliness, this lonely soul who died in a foreign land, no one erected a monument for him, even if future generations found him, I am afraid they would not recognize him.

"Well, this is?"

Suddenly, he saw something, leaned over, and pulled a token from under the dry bones.

This token is only the size of the woman's palm, the hand is heavy, hard, poke off the dirt on the top, and found that the material of the token is green iron, and there are two sides of the plastic, Liu Chaosheng is written on the front, and a majestic gate is depicted on the back, and the three big characters in the door are "Aoki Zong".

It's actually a disciple of the Aoki Sect!!

Meng Fan looked down at the dry bones, and a trace of extremely bad premonition rose in his heart.

"Meng Er!" Li Yongfu shouted from behind: "You're right, there are really several corpses here. ”

"What corpses, these are only skeletons." Li Yongan said.

Li Yong dared to walk towards Meng Fan, and said as he walked: "We found a lot of broken bones, according to the pelvis, there should be six people. ”

Meng Fan asked, "The bones are very fragmented?" ”

"The main body of the skeleton is fine, but the limbs are difficult to put together."

"We're not autopsies, we just put the bones together."

"Okay, I know," Li Yong dared to look at Meng Fan, "what did you find?" ”

"Big discovery."

Meng Fan handed over the token, pointed to the skeleton under the tree and said, "Disciple of the Aoki Sect." ”

"Aoki Sect?!"

Li Yong dared to look back and forth at the Qingtie token, and only spoke up for a long time: "Sure enough, it is the Qingtie Order, and every disciple of the Qingmu Sect will have one, and when he goes out, he will use it to show his identity, this person is called Liu Chaosheng." ”

"I've seen it," Meng Fan nodded.

"But how did he die here?"

"I'm thinking about that, too."

The two were silent for a moment, and Li Yong dared to suddenly speak: "Could it be the disciple of the Aoki Sect who disappeared into the maze of tree alleys in the past?" As far as I know, the Aoki Sect has only had an accident in the Tree Alley, except for the Tyrannosaurus. ”

"Doesn't that mean we've entered the tree alley?" Meng Fan said with a smile.

"That's not necessarily," Li Yong dared to glance at it, "You have always looked wrong from before, do you know something?" ”

Meng Fan slowly put away his smile, he was about to speak, but Li Yongdang took the first step and said with a solemn expression: "Let's go all the way, we are getting closer and closer to the forbidden area of Nashu Hutong, I think I am afraid that if we go further, we will have to go in, so I let everyone rest here." ”

"What?"

Meng Fan glared at Li Yongkang, "We're getting closer and closer to the forbidden area?" How can it be? ”

Li Yong dared to wonder and said: "I don't know what's going on, we have been walking in the opposite direction to the northeast, but this distance does not increase but decreases, I estimate that after walking for another half an hour, we will enter the forbidden area." ”

Meng Fan complained: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? ”

"I didn't find out in the morning," Li Yong dared to hold his head and cry out, "I still happened to glance into the air earlier, only to find that the forbidden area of Shuhutong was not in the west, but in front of us, which frightened me." ”

Turned back to the West?

Meng Fan raised his eyebrows, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't talk, let me take a look." ”

Li Yong dared to turn around and leave, but when he passed by Meng Fan's side, the afterglow swept a trace of something unusual......
