Chapter 19: Finding in the Middle of the Night
In the middle of the night, I suddenly woke up, and when I turned around to go back to sleep, I found it difficult to fall asleep. The main reason for the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info was that the monk next to me snored too loudly, and my ears were numb, and I tossed and turned, so I simply sat up.
The heavy rain outside had stopped, and the sound of dripping water inside the cave was particularly loud, ticking and ticking. You can still hear the sound of running water, and it seems that the cave is indeed very deep and can still be watered.
There was a slight light outside the cave, and I was afraid that there was a moon coming out, and I could probably discern the outline of the mountain peaks outside.
In a blur, I don't know how long it took, a feeling of sleepiness came, and I wanted to fall asleep. But in an instant, the sound of crying came from inside the cave, fluttering and intermittent. Even if I prick up my ears, I can't hear clearly.
After listening for a while, I finally determined that it was indeed the sound of crying, not that I had misheard it or that some animal imitated it, or that it was the sound of water.
In an instant, I lost my sleepiness, as if I was enchanted, I actually picked up the flashlight, got up and walked towards the cave step by step.
I walked very lightly and slowly, the cave was too dark, and the water dripped, and the road was slippery. The cool breeze blows inside, refreshing and refreshing, and even feels a little cold. I followed the direction of the sound, and the range of the flashlight was only about five meters, like a faint star in the dark night in the huge empty cave.
There are a lot of intersections in the cave, like a maze, criss-crossed, walking and walking, I can't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest.
It's over, I'm lost.
I couldn't tell the terrain was high or low, and I didn't know if I was going outside the cave or going deeper. The most anxious thing is that the crying voice is getting closer and closer, echoing in this empty cave, and it is impossible to tell where it is. It seems far away, and it seems like it's in your ear, or behind you.
At this moment, I was a little scared, and I took a few deep breaths to calm my heartbeat.
Suddenly!
The crying stopped, and the entire cave became silent in an instant, and even the sound of dripping water could not be heard. Except for his own slow-moving footsteps, it was as if the whole world was quiet.
I shone around with a flashlight, hoping to find my way through. Now I was bent on returning to the mouth of the cave and joining everyone, and at the same time I was angry at why I dared to come here alone.
Is it really obsessed?
There are too many forks in the cave, there are several, and it is dark inside. I didn't know which one to choose, and I didn't know which one I had just come from.
The flashlight shone at his feet, and he found that he had stepped on the ground.
A flash of inspiration.
Yes, if you follow your own footsteps, won't you be able to find your way to where you came?
I squatted down, my flashlight and face almost on the ground, and I did find my own faint footprints. But before I had time to be happy in my heart, I instantly became short of breath.
Because I found that the footprints I left when I came were not mine, but two.
Yes, there are two trails of footprints, and those footprints are very light, but they still leave traces.
How so? How can there be two strings of footprints.
I'm clearly alone! Is someone stalking me? No, after all, in this dark cave, let alone tracking, if there is no lighting, it will be difficult to walk normally.
I didn't dare to continue looking, nor did I dare to follow the footprints back, I always felt that there was a pair of cold eyes staring at me not far away.
For a moment, I stood still, my brain seemed calm, spinning rapidly, trying to quickly come up with a solution.
The flashlight in my hand shook inadvertently on the footprints on the ground, and I seemed to think of something, and my heart was uneasy.
The footprints followed me, but where did they go now, and for what purpose?
I shined my flashlight on the last place I stood, following the footprints. I found out that the footprints had also stopped there, and I didn't leave at all, so wasn't it just in me... Behind me?
My whole body trembled, goosebumps all over my body, and I was about to cry out in fear.
I wanted to turn around, but I couldn't muster the courage.
Suddenly, the cessation of crying sounded again inexplicably. If you don't come early or late, you show up when I'm not calm, and I really want to go crazy.
I gritted my teeth and thought that if I continued like this, something would happen sooner or later. simply turned around, and the flashlight shone behind him.
Behind me was a fork in the road, and a little girl in red stood there, looking at me with a smile, just staring at me quietly. Isn't this the little girl on the bridge? Why did you appear here again, didn't the monk tell me that it was a woman?
All kinds of questions appeared in my mind, but I couldn't get answers, and my brain couldn't turn for a while. Staring at the girl like this, the flashlight flashed a few times, and the power seemed to be insufficient. When it was normal, there were still girls anywhere, and the passage was dark, and the low stone walls.
I believe that if I really didn't have dazzled or hallucinations, this girl wouldn't have appeared inexplicably.
I took the courage and walked step by step towards the hole where the girl had appeared.
After only a dozen meters of progress, the ground was no longer slippery, unusually dry, and even covered with cobwebs and thick dust. The cave is no longer low, and there is a lot of space inside, half the size of a basketball court as far as the eye can see.
I shook my flashlight around, and the cave was full of stone statues, humans, gods, and animals. Dump on the ground and place at will. It seems that it must be a repository that was used to pile up statues.
There were candlesticks and oil lamps in the cave, but unfortunately I didn't have any lighters with me. I walked through the cave, and there was no exit, except for the passage where I came.
At this moment, in the corner ahead, there was a rustling sound, and I couldn't help but beat my heart faster. Picking up a rusty iron rod on the stone table next to me, I wanted to see who the demons were doing.
I thought of the rune paper that the fifth uncle gave me, and my heart was a lot calmer. It's really like what the fifth uncle said, the paper talisman is so powerful, then what ghosts are I afraid of.
The flashlight in his hand shone in front of him, moving forward step by step, feeling sweaty all over his body, and the iron rod in his hand was held tighter.
I suddenly stepped across, raised the iron rod in my hand, and flashed my flashlight. Whatever it is, if I find something wrong, I'm ready to smash it down.
"Ouyang Chengrui?" I looked at the figure crouching in the corner and cried out.
How could it be him, I thought about all the possibilities, but I didn't expect that it would be a person, and it would be my own person. When did this guy come running? It seems like he arrived a long time before me.
At this moment, Ouyang Chengrui has a half-nerdy and steady appearance, and his usual seven-point head is now lying down, covering most of his face, his face is covered with foundation and blush, and his eyebrows are painted in the shape of willow leaves. What's even more infuriating is that this guy is using faded red paper to apply lipstick at the moment.
Looking at the small wooden box in front of him, he thought to himself, how can there be women's cosmetics in this hellish place?
Ouyang Chengrui was frightened by me, and desperately ran into the corner, as if he was particularly afraid of the weak flashlight in my hand.
I dared to let him go and hold on to him.
After struggling for a long time, I still didn't take Ouyang? Cheng Rui subdued, but let him run into a dead corner. I was so tired that I collapsed to the ground, and I had the heart to take care of him again. I thought, I'm just guarding here, this guy can't run away anyway.
But it's also strange that tonight's Ouyang Chengrui seemed to have fallen into an evil spirit, running here in the middle of the night and dressing himself up as a woman. The point is that he doesn't know me at all now, and he's very afraid of me.
It's over, it's over, is it true that as the fifth uncle said, this guy has been tricked?
"If you don't see it, it's a god..."
Just thinking about it, Ouyang Chengrui actually sang a song, his voice was like a woman, and after a while, he began to cry again. The sound echoed through the dark hole, terrifying and eerie. Isn't this the voice I was looking for just now, could it be that Ouyang Chengrui has always been doing the trouble?
I want to turn around and go out, after all, I can't do anything about Ouyang Chengrui alone. I only went to look for the fifth uncle, but I was afraid that if I left, what should I do if this guy runs away. This cave is so big, and the forks in the road are criss-crossed, if you really want to find him, it is not easy to talk about it in the middle of the night.
At this moment, Ouyang Cheng Rui, fools can see that there is a problem.
I looked at the iron rod in my hand, and then at Ouyang, who was delirious and hiding in the corner singing? Cheng Rui was hesitating whether to knock him out, after all, this was the only best way I could come up with right now.
At this time, the fifth uncle appeared in front of me like a savior. Not only the fifth uncle, but everyone else came except for Atai.
"I'll just say that these two must stay together, you don't believe it." The monk swaggered in, heard Ouyang Chengrui singing, was stunned, and then mocked me: "I said you two scholars, don't tell me that you came here in the middle of the night to discuss knowledge?" This is singing and crying, which one is it? Can you still let Dao Ye and me have a good rest. ”
Where did I have time to pay attention to the monk's sarcasm, and quickly report everything here to the fifth uncle in detail. Even Ouyang Chengrui's delirious appearance now is indeed worrying.
"Ouyang, this nerd, won't he really fall for evil, right?" The monk asked in surprise.
The fifth uncle stepped forward and pulled out the struggling Ouyang Chengrui. The fifth uncle was extremely strong, and he pressed Ouyang Chengrui's head fiercely, and pointed a flashlight at his face for a while.
"I said Ouyang Chengrui still has this hobby? Hey... Dao Ye, I am uncomfortable and tight at the moment. The monk looked at the outfit on Ouyang Chengrui's face, and goosebumps fell to the ground.
"Mr. Chen, I wonder what kind of evil monster Ouyang fell into?" Uncle Li frowned tightly and asked the fifth uncle worriedly.
"Go to the yin!"
