Chapter 21: Humans or Ghosts

The man's cry was very high-pitched, very harsh, echoing in the empty cavern, and I saw that his expression was distorted and unusual, his body was like chaff, and he stretched out his hand to us, and I didn't know what I saw. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Several of us looked at each other, thinking that this person was simply inexplicable, but seeing that person didn't seem to be funny, could it be that one of us was really a ghost?

While we were wondering, a figure suddenly appeared on our side, his legs were as fast as the wind, and before he could see who it was, the figure climbed to the top of the stone slope, hid behind a stalactite, exposed half of his head, and called out there:

"How...... Possible...... I saw you were dead......"

Everyone shone the flashlight away, and saw that it was no one else who had just jumped out, but the kid with braces.

The braces also seemed to be very frightened at this time, hiding behind the stones, shivering and incoherent. I wondered in my heart, secretly saying what kind of hammer are you kid doing? glanced back again, and then suddenly remembered that the person who was screaming just now was not a donkey friend who came with braces!

When the man heard the braces say that he was dead, he immediately retorted:

"Nonsense! I saw you stoned to death! ”

The two of them confronted each other, which made us inexplicable, and we felt that the atmosphere was weird, and we didn't feel a chill down our backs. I thought about it for a moment and said:

"Since you ...... If one of you is stoned to death, there must be a wound on that head, and both of you stick your head out for us to see, and we'll see. ”

When the traveler heard me say this, he had already become more reasonable, and immediately came over and put his head in front of us. I took a careful look at it with a flashlight, but I didn't find any wounds, and I was not at ease, so I touched it again with my hands, and there was no blood. Only the face and arms were scratched, and for some reason, there were some red rashes, and the superficial skin was a little ulcerated, but it was not fatal. All of us couldn't help but look at the braces that were crawling on the cave wall, but when we saw him tremble even more, he pointed at us and shouted in horror:

"This ...... How can it be! How is this possible! I'm ...... You guys...... You want to gang up to hurt me! You guys...... You want to rob me of my gold bars! ”

The braces screamed a few times, and it was almost heartbreaking, and I saw him turn around sharply, and move quickly on the slope, and in the blink of an eye, with a flick of his legs, he jumped to a crack hole at the end of the cliff, and without saying a word he drilled into it.

I saw that the situation was not good, and along the way, although the behavior of the braces was a little abnormal, how could it be a ghost? I didn't have time to think about it, so I subconsciously climbed up the cave wall and chased after it.

For some reason, the braces were extremely fast, and by the time I reached the entrance of the cave, he was long gone. I didn't have time to think about it, so I raised my flashlight and went into the hole. This hole is not big, two meters long and wide, and the bottom of the hole is a layer of soil with ash accumulation, which is very flat.

After running not deep, the distribution of the cave suddenly became complicated, and from it there were many branch systems, all of which could accommodate one person in and out, and I stopped at a bifurcated hole and called inside:

"What are you running kid running! We're going to covet your gold bars a long time ago, so why wait until this time? Don't spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, the network distribution in this cave is complicated, don't act alone, come back quickly! ”

I was so focused on moving forward that I forgot to pay attention to my side, and at this time, the kid with braces suddenly came out of a hollow hole next to me, picked up a bun stone in his hand at some point, grinned, showed a grim smirk, bowed his body, jumped up and smashed it on my head.

The smash hit me right on the temple, and it was so hard that it almost killed me, and it immediately beat me to the point that my eyes were full of stars, and I grinned in pain.

I was knocked to the ground by my braces, and I was convulsed in pain, and I covered my wounds, but the blood was still gushing out like a well, staining my face red. The braces froze in place for two seconds, looked at me, looked at the murder weapon in his hand, threw down the stone, and ran into a branch cave like a frightened deer.

Fortunately, at this time, the yellow fat man and they arrived in time, I pointed to the direction of the braces and let them chase them, but they looked at me with surprised eyes and said, "Still chasing a fart!" You kid don't want to die! ”

I was carried back to the camp by them, and Captain Li called the team doctor to bring me a first-aid kit to stop the bleeding and bandage my wounds. The team doctor told me that if you miss an inch, you kid may not be able to save his life.

I didn't care about the pain, I beckoned the donkey friend to come over, there were some things I didn't ask to understand, my heart was really panicked, so I asked him why he just said that braces are ghosts, how did you get here?

The traveler was flustered for a while, I asked him to calm down a little, saying that he was fine, and after a while, he calmed down a little, and told me that he and the braces were named Zhao Yu and Liu Zhao, and they were college classmates, and both of them were obsessed with outdoor adventures, so they naturally came together. I looked at him, and I was about to start from the beginning, I was anxious, waved my hand to stop him, and said that your classmate had already told us about these situations before, so I briefly told him the previous description of the braces.

After listening to my description, the traveler named Zhao Yu turned angry and said:

"He's lying! The person who was attacked by the stone was clearly him, and I was the one who squinted and pretended to be unconscious! ”

I wondered in my heart, it turned out that things were like this, and the braces deliberately said things backwards, what was the intention? No, if the person who was stoned to death was braces, then the person who was stripped naked and thrown into the room should be the Zhao Yu in front of him, what happened in this?

Zhao Yu saw that I didn't believe him, so he became impatient, and hurriedly told me the situation, it turned out that he saw that the braces were beaten by stones and the blood flowed, and he was so frightened that he almost screamed, but fortunately he tried to restrain this impulse, so he did not fall into the same fate as braces. He continued to pretend to be unconscious, until when he had gone up the mountain, and the surroundings began to become complicated, and the man who was carrying him distanced himself from his companions behind him, and he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to flee quickly, but when he thought of it, he jumped up and bit the ear of the man who carried him, and ran through the dense forest while the man covered his pain and wailed. At that time, he had not been stripped naked, and he was wearing shoes, and he was more experienced in the mountains and jungles, so he ran very fast, and ran straight for more than an hour, and he didn't know how far he had escaped, so he stopped to catch his breath, and looked behind, it was pitch black, and there were no pursuers.

Only then did he dare to take out the pocket flashlight in his pocket, turn on it, and find himself in a lush dense forest, his clothes were scraped with many holes, and his bare skin was also pierced by thorns. He didn't dare to stay for a long time, for fear of regenerating branches, so he continued to climb up, trying to find a high point to stay until dawn, and then look at the surrounding terrain.

He climbed to the top of the mountain, and the lights suddenly brightened not far away, this Zhao Yu was taken aback, and saw that there seemed to be a village over there, he was not far away, and hurriedly turned off the flashlight, hid in the dark, and observed himself. Later, he saw the two-headed monster carrying braces into a wooden house, he had seen that these guys were not demons and monsters, but they were a little more deformed than ordinary people, so he didn't have too much fear, and remembered that his brother was knocked out of the head and his life and death were unknown, and it was really unrighteous for him to run away alone, so he made a very bold decision, thinking that after everyone in the village was asleep, he sneaked over to rescue the braces.

He lurked in place and remained motionless, until after midnight, the lights in the village gradually went out, and finally only the room where the braces were imprisoned was still lit, and he did not see anyone guarding it.

Zhao Yu thought of this section and understood that the braces were likely to have suffered an accident, but he was really unwilling not to see him with his own eyes, if he didn't die, wouldn't he become a villain who couldn't be saved. He trembled and touched it, saying that he was not afraid that it was all fake, but in order to save his brother, he also let it go. When he touched the room, he saw two torches in the room, and in the middle of it a door panel, propped up by a stool, and the braces were now lying on the door, stripped naked, covered with rags, and looked dead.

Zhao Yu hurriedly walked over to probe his breathing, felt his pulse and heartbeat again, and found that the braces were completely dead. He picked up a backpack that he had thrown in the corner, and before he could grieve when he heard some movement outside, as if someone was coming. He shuddered with fright, and sprang out like a frightened mouse, and saw the two-headed monster with a torch, and there he roared and strode after him. Zhao Yu dared to hesitate, he ran wildly on the flat ground on the top of the mountain like smearing the soles of his shoes, went straight to the edge of the cliff, and found the rope going down, he quickly took out the lock from his backpack, and he didn't have time to take more safety measures, so he slid into this hole.

Later, he feared that the men would come after him, so he went deeper into the cave, thinking that there might be another way out not far away, and he had explored many caves, and knew that there were usually several exits in the flowing water caves, and if he had not been flooded, he could escape from the other exits, avoiding the treacherous village.

But at this time, he suddenly itched.
