"Chapter 3: The Expedition"

Early the next morning, I was woken up by a commotion outside, stretched, rubbed my sleepy eyes, and before I could get off the ground, there was a sharp knock at the door. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Guosheng, Guosheng, are you up, come out and see that." As soon as I heard this voice, I knew it was Xia Ying, and I shrugged my face and replied lazily.

"Get up, early in the morning, what are you doing, arguing so that people don't get a good night's sleep."

put on his clothes and walked towards the door, and when he opened the door, he found that in addition to Xia Ying, who was annoyed, there was also a group of people standing in the open space in front of him.

The periphery was full of villagers and us students, and in the middle was a group of people wearing dark green jackets and carrying bags.

Xia Ying pulled my arm and whispered to me, "These are all here early in the morning, listen to Grandpa Niu, they are here to explore in the mountains." ”

I was stunned for a moment, thinking to myself, how could such a group of people suddenly come to this barren mountain and wilderness. Thinking about it, he walked towards the crowd.

Particularly conspicuous in the crowd were several foreigners with very white skin and hats, bulging in their bags and looking very heavy, and several other people, all Chinese, were asking some questions around the head of Niu Village.

A middle-aged foreigner at the head took a shabby map and asked the village chief in Chinese, which was not too fluent, "Dear friend, hello, I am the leader of this expedition, my name is Henrytt, I want to ask, is there a mountain that looks like two humps behind the bamboo forest in front?" Is it in this location? As he spoke, he pointed to a small red cross on the map in his hand.

The village chief squinted at the map in the foreigner's hand, and after reading it, he stared at the foreigner in surprise, and then looked at a group of outsiders, and said tremblingly, "The place you said, I advise you not to go there, that place is very evil, and people in our area call it Ghost Camel Mountain." ”

"Oh! Why do you say that? The foreigner asked curiously.

Village Chief Niu sighed, "That place, no one dared to go anywhere for several generations before me, I heard that there are evil ghosts in the mountains, and everyone who goes there is eaten by evil ghosts." A few years ago, some villagers strayed into the Ghost Camel Mountain, and after escaping by luck, they went crazy. ”

Henrith looked at the village chief blankly, "Evil ghosts? What is it, vampire? We are all believers in the Lord, and we will not be afraid of vampires! So saying, he took out a silver cross from his bosom.

The village chief glanced at Henryt helplessly, "Hey, I advise you not to go, if something happens, it's very serious,"

"NONO, WE HAVE TO GET THERE, AND THE LORD WILL BLESS US." Henritt said firmly.

"After crossing the big river in front of you, walk thirty miles south along the road of the bamboo forest, and you will see a chaotic stone forest, and after that, you will reach the entrance of the Ghost Camel Mountain after walking a few miles." Seeing that Henryt insisted on going, the village chief didn't say anything, and after telling them the place, he turned around and left.

Seeing that the village chief had left, Henriet didn't ask too much, turned to the villagers behind him and said, "Can we rest here with you?" By the way helped us find some food, we could pay for the money!"

The hospitable villagers confiscated their money and beckoned them to rest at home, along with some portable dry food.

I was still wondering there, isn't it a brain disease for a foreign expedition to come so far to explore here? At this moment, a young man with an indifferent expression in the expedition team walked up to me, stared at me, said "I'll come back to you", and then turned and walked away.

Leaving me with a face full of question marks, I was stunned there, who is this? Say something inexplicable and leave?

Xia Ying, who was beside her, probably heard what he said, and asked curiously, "Who is he, do you know him?" ”

"How do I know who he is, and why did he come back to me? I don't know him, inexplicable" I shook my head and turned around and walked towards the other side of the room, leaving Xia Ying with a curious face muttering on the side, "It's strange, I don't know why I said that?" ”

The expedition team that had rested for a few hours left in the afternoon, and looking at the expedition team in the distance, I still couldn't help but think, what is in this mountain? Is it worth the long journey? After saying it, why don't you go during the day, you have to wait until it's almost dark to go there. Also, who is that young man? What do you mean by that?

Thinking about these things, I lowered my head and walked towards the residence of the village chief.

On the other side, in a group of people who had entered the bamboo forest, the middle-aged foreigner Henry was talking in English to a few foreigners around him, and after a while, he shouted at a tall and thin man walking in front, "Hey, Zhou, how long do we have to get to our destination,"

The tall thin man surnamed Zhou, who was walking in the front, turned around, spit out the bamboo leaves in his mouth, and replied, "According to the old man in the village, it should be about 20 minutes away." "This man's name is Zhou Fu, and for the sake of convenience, Henry just called him Zhou.

Henriet pursed his lips after hearing the words of the man surnamed Zhou, "I hate the jungle here,"

At this time, it was already dark, and everyone was groping forward with flashlights. It didn't take long for them to arrive at the chaotic stone forest that the village chief Niu said.

It is said to be a chaotic stone forest, but in fact, it is a large open space with some small stone mountains several meters high, and there are a few bamboos around the stone mountain.

When Henriet saw that he had reached the Stone Forest, he ordered the people to rest in place. A small man in the team ran to Zhou Fu and said with a flattering smile, "Brother Zhou, please help me keep an eye on it, I'll go and relieve myself." ”

It seems that this Zhou Fu is still a small head. He smiled and patted the little man, "San'er, aren't you afraid?" ”

"That... That's something, what's there to be afraid of. The little man, known as San'er, smiled wryly.

"Okay, okay, go, remember to be sloppy, don't delay your journey." Zhou Fu smiled and said.

Seeing San'er running in the direction of the stone forest, Zhou Fu turned around and chatted with his companion again.

San'er came to the back of the stone forest, the flashlight into the armpit, and began to untie the belt, the belt just untied before it began to be convenient, he felt a chill on the back of the neck, he shivered and muttered, "The weather is really cold" The urine just came out, and suddenly heard a "rustling" sound behind him, holding his pants in one hand, pulling out the flashlight with the other hand and turning to the front.

The moment he turned around, he froze, and then his whole body seemed to have exploded, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Because, opposite him, was an incomparably white face, with dark eyes and no whites.

"Ghost .. Ghost.. Hell yes! The frightened San'er threw away the flashlight and turned around and ran. Didn't even lift his pants.

The members of the expedition who were still chatting quickly got up and looked in the direction of the stone forest after hearing San'er's scream. The first thing I saw was San'er who was pulling his pants with one hand and running wildly.

", what the hell is your name?" Zhou Fu scolded angrily. He wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after seeing what was behind San'er.

Behind San'er, he saw several pale faces, wearing ancient armor and holding spears, limping towards them.

"This... This.. What the hell is this? As he spoke, Zhou Fu stepped back a little tremblingly.

San'er, who was originally running towards them, suddenly stopped in place and pointed behind them tremblingly, "You... You guys.. After.. Later," he stammered and ran to the other side.

After hearing San'er's words, the people slowly turned around and looked behind them, and in the direction of the bamboo forest, a group of people in armor were limping towards them like the people they had seen before.

Henrytt, who had seen this for the first time, and the foreigners were stunned, and stood there motionless.

The young man with an indifferent expression on the side was stunned, looking at those in armor as if he had thought of something. "It's not good, run, this is a Yin soldier's excuse, and you will die if you are touched." He shouted at the crowd, and then pulled Henritte and ran quickly to the side.

After hearing the words of the indifferent young man, Zhou Fu and the others also hurriedly ran to the other parties.

A few of them were slow runners, and the moment they came into contact with the Yin Soldiers, their eyes bulged out, and their throats let out "Uh... uh", and the skin of the body also began to turn white. After a while, he fell to the ground and did not move.

The expedition members who were still together were so frightened that they fled in groups, and within a few minutes, the surroundings of the Stone Forest became extremely quiet, except for a few members of the expedition who had died, there were only those Yin soldiers who wandered back and forth.

Half an hour later, the indifferent young man who had been running away with Henriet suddenly heard the sound of gunfire not far ahead, and he knew that it was from the pistols carried by the foreigners of their expedition, "Since they used guns, it is estimated that something is wrong." Henrytt, already tired and out of breath, said. With that, the two of them sped up and hurried forward.

When they arrived at the front of the mountain, Henry and the indifferent young man looked at the scene a little strange, because there were originally eighteen expedition members, but now there are only ten people counting the two of them, and the people in front of them, including Zhou Fu and two foreigners, are sitting in a circle back to back, holding guns in their hands and observing something around, and not far from them, there are several people lying horizontally, their skin is purple, and green liquid flows from their eyes, nose and mouth.

Seeing such a scene, Henriet was stunned, "Oh God, what's going on. He exclaimed.

Seeing that the two foreigners who were Henriet hurriedly ran over and pulled him, communicating something in English, Zhou Fu and they also ran over.

"What's going on?" The indifferent young man asked Zhou Fu.

"There's something here." Zhou Fu replied with a pale face.

The indifferent young man looked at Zhou Fu suspiciously. "Something? What is it? ”

Zhou Fu returned with palpitations, "I don't know, but it's terrifying, do you see some corpses on the ground?" They were fine just now, but they didn't know if they were bitten by something, and their skin began to slowly change color until it became what it is now. They were surprisingly fast, and the foreigners just fired and didn't hit anything. ”

At this moment, there was a "squeak" sound in front of me. "Oh no, here we go again." Zhou Fu screamed in horror, and the other people were hurriedly gathered back to back.

The indifferent young man looked in the darkness in front of him, and in the darkness in between, there was a little red light, and he was rushing towards this place at a very fast speed. He pulled a strange-looking short blade from his waist.

It was getting closer and closer, and because it was night, people couldn't see what it looked like, all they could see was a little bit of red light. Some people couldn't suppress their fear and shot, but none of those things flew around, and none of them hit.

The situation became worse and worse, and someone chose to run away, but after a few steps, the things fell quickly on the person's body, and under the light of the fire, the person first let out a scream of pain, and then the skin of the palm of the hand bitten by the thing began to slowly turn purple. Then it began to spread upwards, and he let out a scream of pain.

"Help me... Help me.... Belch.... uh...."

It didn't take long for him to lose his voice, and green liquid flowed from his mouth and nose and ears.

The indifferent young man who saw this scene also frowned slightly.

"Be careful!" Zhou Fu shouted at him. At the same time as he heard the sound, he held the short blade and swung it sideways, and with a "pop" sound, a little liquid splashed on his face. He looked down at the corpse of the thing on the ground, which looked the size of a ladybug, covered in black and white lines.

"Run to the mountains." He shouted at Zhou Fu and Henryt. Just as they were about to escape, more and more strange insects flew in, and Zhou Fu and the other two foreigners, who had not yet run a few steps, were engulfed by the overwhelming flying strange insects. Henriet escaped by being pushed by one of the aliens, but was bitten on the arm and calf by one of the monsters.

"You're leaving." Zhou Fu's mournful shouts came from the pile of worms. Without thinking about anything else, the indifferent young man picked up Henrytt, who was screaming in pain on the ground, and ran quickly into the mountains. After running for a long time, my feet were empty, and I fell into a quagmire that was not particularly deep.

Strangely, the strange insects flew over their heads, as if they didn't exist at all.

After the strange insect flew away, the indifferent young man quickly took out a few ropes thick with a little thumb from his bag and tied them to Henritte's thigh and big arm, and used the strange-looking short blade in his hand to cut Henritt's leg and arm respectively, and purple blood flowed out of the wound that was cut, and Henriet was already in a coma of pain.

Crawling out of the quagmire, the indifferent young man carried the unconscious Henryt on his back, looked at the dead Zhou Fu and the other members of the expedition, and returned the same way in the direction of the bamboo forest.
