Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mysterious Gray Shadow
At four o'clock in the afternoon, it was already very dark, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, which seemed to be the rhythm of snow. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After making a silent gesture to me, I stood motionless, looking around with a frown.
There is nothing special except for the trees that are left with only branches!
After waiting for about two or three minutes, I couldn't help it, but at this time I heard a sound of footsteps, very light, small steps, fast speed, and in a blink of an eye, we were not far away!
I hurriedly followed the footsteps, and saw a gray shadow flying over the mountainside overhead, like a swallow's leaf, and disappeared into the mountain forest in the blink of an eye!
"Master......" I was a little dazed, and turned my head to look at Han Debai: "Do you know?" ā
Han Debai shook his head: "I look at it, how can I look like a nun!" ā
"Nun? Is there a nunnery on this Taibai Mountain? ā
Han Debai shook his head again: "I don't know, I haven't walked through the mountain road of Taibai Mountain at all, I really don't know if there is a nunnery, but it seems that there is a Taoist temple or a temple, I forgot!" ā
"Is there anyone else who would choose this road to go up the mountain but us?" I asked.
"Come on!" Han Debai smiled: "Where is there a road here?" Even those mountain people who live nearby will not go here to collect medicine or cut firewood...... However, the person just now did look like a nun, and he was skilled, his footwork was light and vigorous, and he had a little fairy style, and he was by no means an ordinary person. ā
This Han Debai suddenly spoke seriously, and I was really a little uncomfortable.
"Whoever she is!" I leaned over my legs: "I'm tired, let's rest!" ā
Han Debai glanced at me, didn't say anything, just nodded, found a relatively empty place on the side, and quickly set up a two-person tent.
Without the pig's head and the old clams, the food we carried was only some water, biscuits, cooked food, and not so much exquisite, Han Debai sat outside the tent and ate, I didn't fall asleep in the car at noon, and the sky was completely dark, so I simply lay down in the tent and slept first.
I slept so darkly, but I didn't wake up hungry, but I was woken up by the thunderous snoring of Han Debai.
"Ouch-" I sat up in a daze, looked at Han Debai who was sleeping soundly on the other side, and muttered in my heart: Damn, you don't keep vigil, if there is a beast coming over just now, it will be eaten directly!
When I came back to my senses, I felt a little hungry, and hurried out of the tent, where I saw that Hon Deber had lit a small bonfire at the door, which was still burning. I rubbed my hands together and took some food out of my backpack and sat down in front of the campfire to eat.
Well, it's already in the mountains, so it's better to give Liang Ruoyi a position! The Han Debai in the tent is definitely not trustworthy, and after using me, he is estimated to kill me immediately!
Thinking of this, I glanced at Han Debai, who was still asleep, took out my mobile phone, fortunately there was still a signal, and hurriedly sent Liang Ruoyi an instant location, and then I ate with confidence.
It was already past one o'clock in the morning, and although I was only a few hundred meters above sea level, it was the middle of winter, and the temperature was extremely low, so I wrapped up my clothes tightly and leaned towards the campfire.
The cold wind blew and took away my sleepiness. After a while, snowflakes rose in the sky, and when I looked up, feathery white snowflakes fell one by one, and some fell on the branches and melted away; Some of them fall on the fallen leaves on the ground, and soon they are covered with a layer, and they are dotted with stars against the background of the bonfire, as if they are in a fairy tale.
This scene reminds me of when I was studying in the Northeast a few years ago, I especially liked to walk with Xiaoxiao in the snowy night, the street lamps on the street, the goose-feather snowflakes, the hands that were held, and the two hearts that snuggled up...... No matter how cold it is, our hearts are warm.
I was indulging in the snow, but I heard the sound of the sound again, like a beast slowly approaching us in the jungle.
I held my breath and quietly turned my head to look at Hand Deber in the tent behind me, and found that he was still snoring soundly, as if he hadn't heard the sound.
"Smack!"
There were two crisp sounds in the snow, as if someone had stepped on a tree branch, I hurriedly followed the sound and saw that the gray shadow appeared again, shuttling lightly in the mountains and forests under the snow, the gray cloth robe was raised in the wind, and there was really a kind of fairy wind and bones!
This person's speed did not look fast, but everywhere he passed was left behind a series of afterimages, which seemed a little abrupt in the night.
After a few blinks, the visitor disappeared into the darkness again, without a trace......
And at this moment, I suddenly remembered a person: Ruoran, the girl of the Falling Flower Cave, is now also my senior sister. I've seen a lot of masters, but there are only those who have such a chic style, except for the master, and the only one is Senior Sister Ruoran!
But she shouldn't be here at this time! Since Uncle Bao Weng died until now, the fastest is just after childbirth, if the senior sister should be by the child's side!
I frowned and imagined the picture of Senior Sister Ruoran before, but I felt more and more that that person was her......
"What a nun." Handerberg's voice suddenly sounded from behind me, startling me.
"Nun?" I turned my head to look at him, "Do you see clearly?" ā
"See clearly." Han Debai lay back down: "Sleep, the nuns are all merciful and will not trouble us." ā
Nonsense! I slandered for a while: You are a rotten thing, you will burn high incense without asking for trouble!
Watching Hendberg continue to sleep, I stayed outside for a while, and by three o'clock in the morning, I felt a little sleepy again, and went back to the tent to sleep.
When they got up in the morning, they had some breakfast and continued to walk up the mountain.
The snow had stopped, but it also made it more difficult to walk under my feet, and I had to be careful with almost every step, and it didn't take long for me to be covered in sweat and panting: "Hey, it's not a way to climb up like this!" How long will it be until the cliff you mentioned? ā
Han Debai saw me gasping for breath, so he waved his hand and motioned for me to stop and rest for a while: "Well, in this case, let's take a long detour, bypass from here, enter the mountain recess in the northwest, and you can see a hill under the sea of clouds. ā
"So hard?!" I suddenly looked bitter: "How good would it be if we drove the car directly into the recess?!" ā
Han Debai grinned and patted the hand-drawn map in his pocket: "Impossible, let me tell you, in the world, there is only this map of that place, in that mountain recess, surrounded by mountains, above is a sea of clouds, below is clouds and fog, cars can't get in at all, only when the weather is clear, there will be relatively safe visibility, otherwise, if you go in, you will also find death." ā
"Okay, let's go around then......" I shrugged helplessly, thinking that this was troublesome, and I would have to find an opportunity to send Liang Ruoyi an instant location later.
According to the map, Handerberg took me diagonally halfway up the mountain to the other side, and in the process we had to go up slowly, which saved some effort.
Before we knew it, by about one o'clock in the afternoon, we should be halfway up the mountain at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and further up, there was a thick layer of snow, and down, there was a steep slope with no end in sight.
"Obediently, I don't know if I don't look at it, I was shocked when I saw it, it was so steep!" I was clinging to a tree with both hands, and my severe fear of heights made my lips tremble a little when I spoke.
"I'll just say, this southwest slope is very difficult to walk, and no one will come." Han Debai sat on a branch next to him: "Rest, eat something." ā
I nodded, carefully found a relatively stable place, and then let out a sigh of relief, took the food handed by Han Debai and ate it.
It's still a little dark, and it looks like there may be snow at night. After enjoying the snow scenery that I can't see on weekdays, I drank a large bottle of cold water, and my stomach growled, which was very awkward.
"IāI'll find a place to make it easier!" I said with a frown, clutching my stomach.
"Over there, it's safer." Hunderberg squinted and pointed to my left.
I answered, took a pack of tissues, walked over to find a big tree, and crouched in the back. After waiting for a while, seeing that Han Debai didn't pay attention to me, he took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Liang Ruoyi, after two or three minutes of hard work, the cold wind blew my ass numbly, and hurriedly pulled a tissue to wipe my buttocks, and glanced at Han Debai's side.
I was stunned, quickly wiped my buttocks, walked back to the big tree in three steps and two steps, and saw that Han Debai had carried his own backpack, but this place is so difficult, no matter how high his kung fu is, it is impossible to disappear in an instant without a sound!
I frowned and picked up my backpack and looked around, but there was no sign of it.
"Poof!"
At this moment, I heard a muffled sound overhead, hurriedly looked up, and found that Han Debai's figure was in the snow more than two feet above my head, and a gray figure disappeared before him, and then, Han Debai actually fell into the snow and disappeared in an instant!
The nun? I muttered to myself, hesitated, but decided to go up and have a look, for it might be more dangerous for me to stay here alone or to move on......
I tightened my shoelaces, tightened my backpack, grabbed the branches on both sides with both hands, and climbed up one foot deep and one foot shallow, less than ten meters high, I climbed for almost a minute before coming up, panting and staring at it, and was stunned for a moment: the place where Han Debai disappeared just now was actually a big cave!
