Chapter 18: The Man-Eating Woods
Brother Hao's sudden promise made me a little flattered, I didn't expect this sentence to be quite effective, it seems that he also wants to know the true face of the ghost town, after all, no one will be willing to be a caged bird here. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I restrained my excitement for a moment, and then said, "Do you have any specific plans to find the fawn?" ”
He patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, I'm familiar with that forest!" Just follow me! ”
"Shall we go find Momo first?" I asked.
"The only information you have now is the letters LM, so if you ask like this, you won't admit it if you want to change it!"
Brother Hao still looked at me expressionlessly, but from his tone, I heard a little bit of mockery. But what he said did have a point, and this alone is not enough to explain the problem, and I scolded myself in my heart for being too reckless.
"Are you saying we're going straight into the woods to find the fawn?"
"Yes. Now that he is in danger, we must set out quickly and without delay! Brother Hao said to me righteously, "But from now on, you have to listen to me!" ”
I happily agreed, he was going to prepare some equipment and food, let me go back to the dormitory and wait, and said that this trip must be very dangerous, and Xiaolu and I just suffered from insufficient preparation!
As soon as I returned to the dormitory, I collapsed on the bed exhausted, with the help of Brother Hao, I was much more relieved, although I was not completely sure that I could find the deer, but I believe that Jiren has his own natural appearance, and everything will be fine.
I fell asleep in a daze, and it was already dark when Brother Hao knocked on the door to wake me up. I didn't have too much delay, I picked up my bag and set off with him directly.
We didn't communicate much along the way, Brother Hao himself has a bit of a cold personality, and I am not very talkative, so the two of us walked all the way like dumb heads.
After a while, I was a little out of breath, after all, the atmosphere was indeed a little awkward, so I spoke: "Brother Hao, have you been to that forest before?" ”
It is estimated that my words were a little sudden, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then said: "I was the same as you when I first came here, because I was curious, I went into the forest with a roommate, and then we got lost, and we walked for three days and three nights before coming out. ”
When I heard this, I was quite surprised, knowing that the forest covers the sky and the sun, and if you get lost, it is basically a dead end. The reason why I was able to escape was because I didn't know who knocked me out, it was a pure accident, and they must have found a way to get out on their own. I asked him, "Have you found any way?" ”
Brother Hao suddenly stopped, looked at me with an unpredictable look and said, "It's not us, it's me!" ”
The atmosphere suddenly became terrifying, and the sentence sounded a little weird, and I tentatively asked, "Yourself?" That...... Isn't your friend ......?"
As soon as the words fell, Brother Hao said in a serious tone: "He, like your friend, has disappeared!" ”
I instantly broke out in a cold sweat, this sentence was like a thunderbolt from the sky, which made me a little difficult to accept, and I eagerly asked. Then he told me about his experience, and this is how it happened.
Qin Zihao and his roommate Dalong entered the forest together, and under the recklessness, the two had already walked into the depths of the forest. It was almost dark, and they didn't notice anything, so they decided to go back.
As soon as he turned around, Dalong stopped, looked left and right, and said to Qin Zihao: "Old Qin, do you know how to go?" ”
Qin Zihao looked ahead and shook his head in confusion, Dalong suddenly became anxious, and shouted: "His grandmother's!" There's not even a landmark here, so let's go! It's also dark this day, is it possible that we can't get out? ”
Qin Zihao patted Da Long's shoulder to signal him to calm down, and then said, "The general direction should be this side, let's go straight forward, we should be able to go out." ”
Dalong didn't speak, looking a little anxious. After a while, Dalong said, "Okay, I'll go this way with you." ”
The two turned on flashlights and hurried all the way back. After walking for about two hours, still not going out, Dalong faintly felt that he had lost his way, patted Qin Zihao's shoulder, and said, "Old Qin, are we lost, we haven't gone out for most of the day." ”
Qin Zihao also stopped, looking a little overwhelmed, he frowned and said nothing, thinking about what to do. Dalong couldn't help but shout: "You fucking say something, I listen to you anyway, you can leave whatever you say!" ”
Qin Zihao scratched his head anxiously and said: "So far, we can only keep moving forward like this, if we can't go out, it will be considered really lost, let's think of a way when the time comes." ”
As he was talking, Qin Zihao turned around and wanted to look at Da Long. As soon as he turned around, he was stunned, the big dragon was gone! Qin Zihao panicked all of a sudden, and hurriedly shouted: "Big Dragon! Great Dragon! ”。 After screaming a few times, but still no one answered, Qin Zihao quickly became vigilant.
He turned off his flashlight and looked around by the moonlight, but he still couldn't find the shadow of the dragon, and there was nothing around but a lonely tree. Qin Zihao hesitated for a moment, and began to turn around to look for it, he wondered if Da Long was joking with him and hiding behind a tree.
After searching for about ten minutes, he still found nothing, and fear gradually surged into his heart. The sudden disappearance of the big dragon made Qin Zihao start to be at a loss, he didn't know what to do, where would the big dragon be.
The silent night made the woods weird, Qin Zihao hesitated for a moment, and began to walk aimlessly. He didn't know where he was going, but in his heart he hoped to find the dragon.
After walking for two days tired and hungry, Qin Zihao was still wandering around the forest, not seeing Dalong, nor going out. He became desperate. Thanks to his sturdy body, if he had been an ordinary person for two days, he would have collapsed a long time ago.
Now that he was completely lost, Qin Zihao sat on the ground weakly, tilting his head, and staring blankly ahead. Suddenly, he noticed that there seemed to be some mark carved on the trunk of the tree in front of him, and he struggled to get up, walked over to the tree, and looked closely, and it was actually a small arrow symbol carved into it. The arrowhead is a little rough and so small that it is impossible to detect it unless you pay special attention.
Qin Zihao walked some distance in the direction of the arrow, and found the same arrow mark on another tree. Without thinking about it, he thought that this should be the mark left by the great dragon, so he followed these marks for a day and a night, and finally walked out of the woods.
