Suddenly, I thought of the topic I was going to do about pressure, so I asked Meng Yingjiu: "Meng Yingjiu, do you have any pressure?" ”

"Pressure? What are you asking for? ”

"There was a high school student who ran away from home, and I wanted to investigate people's stress right now and make a column."

"As long as you get your own things done, there will be no pressure."

I looked up at him and said, "But the process of doing things can be very stressful, huh?" ”

"That's also inevitable in the world, as long as you have an idea, there will be pressure. Not from others, but from yourself. ”

After listening to his words, I couldn't help but ask him, "What kind of person are you?" ”

Unexpectedly, he asked me, "What kind of person are you?" ”

"Me?" I thought for a while and said, "Well, first of all, I think I'm a pretty independent person, and secondly, I'm also very casual, I do whatever I want, and finally, I'm also a very stubborn person, and I don't change things easily." I've already said, what about you? ”

Meng Yingjiu looked at me and said, "I'm not a bad person. “

When I heard his words, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Actually, I thought that he would definitely not answer me directly, but I didn't expect him to say such a sentence seriously.

I smiled and said, "Well, I know, you're not a bad person, you won't hurt me, you won't let others hurt me, you'll always protect me, right?" “

He nodded and said, "Yes." “

I suddenly suspected that the person standing in front of me was still the usual cold Meng Yingjiu? Uncle Qing must have educated him today, so it's right, it's as warm as Dabai.

I was probably so happy today that I was carried away by happiness, and I even reached out and pinched his face and said, "Good! That's right! You are my great white! “

It wasn't until I saw him show a surprised look that I realized that I had actually molested Meng Yingjiu! I immediately retracted my hand, not knowing what to do for a moment, so I said thoughtlessly: "I'll go to the bathroom!" Then he ran away.

I washed my face in the toilet and struggled in the toilet for a long time. Thinking of the decision in the afternoon, since it has already been made, it must be impossible to hide. Then go after that!

I said to myself in the mirror, "Lin Min! Come on! "I just wanted to open the door and go out, but I was timid. I struggled for a while, thinking to myself, if I don't go out again, Meng Yingjiu will definitely think that I am constipated!

So he was ruthless, opened the door, and found that he had already returned to the room. That's fine, wake up early tomorrow and there will be nothing to do.

Back in my room, I searched the internet for information about stress. But in his heart, he kept thinking about his reaction when he pinched Meng Yingjiu just now. I can't help but think it's too funny, and his face is comfortable to pinch.

I couldn't concentrate on collecting anymore, so I lay down in bed, got ready for bed, had a sweet dream, and then met a better tomorrow.

When I got up in the morning, I found that Meng Yingjiu had already gone out. I also packed up and went to work.

When I arrived at the office very early, I found that Editor-in-Chief Zheng was also here, so I immediately reported to Editor-in-Chief Zheng the pressure column plan I had prepared. Editor-in-Chief Zheng also thought it was good and asked me to do it, and this time I finally let him know that I wasn't messing up the news.

Back in position, Xiao Zhang had already gone out. As soon as I sat down, before I could put my things down, I received a phone call.

"Hey! Is it Sister Lin? ”

Sister Lin? Isn't it Sister Lin?

"My surname is Lin, who are you?"

"I'm Zhao Mingquan! You came to me yesterday! ”

"Oh! Mr. Zhao, do you have anything to say to me? ”

"Zou Zhou, he has lost contact with me!"

"What?"

"Actually, he called me the night he ran away from home. He said that he had found a diary of his grandmother and had found something, and he had asked his father, who had said nothing and asked him not to take care of it anymore. I don't know the specifics, he said that he wants to go back to his hometown and live a long life. Yesterday morning, he said he had also found something in his hometown, and then, he said he was going to help his grandmother fulfill her last wish. ”

"What last wish?"

"He said he was going to the Cave of Longevity and put his grandmother's relics there, where his grandfather was missing. I was very worried, but I couldn't persuade him, so we made an appointment that after he entered the ghost cave, he would contact me every hour to ensure safety. But yesterday afternoon, I suddenly couldn't contact him! I think he might be resting. So I waited, but until now, he hasn't contacted me! I was scared, and I didn't dare to tell anyone, so I called you! What now? ”

Speaking of the back, Zhao Mingquan's voice carried a hint of crying.

"Don't worry! Maybe it's just that the phone is out of battery, or the signal is not good. I tried to find a way, but it really didn't work, so I went to Changshou to find him. "By the way, I also have a photo sent to me by Zou Zhou here, which is the diary of his grandmother."

"What is written?"

"It's a painting, Zou Zhou thinks it's a map, I didn't see it, there are some strange symbols on it, I'll send it to you."

"Okay, if you have anything else, you must tell me right away"

"Well, Sister Lin, I'm so scared, I regret not stopping him, if something really happened to Zou Zhou, what should I do?"

"Can you really stop him? There is no regret medicine in the world, and since it has happened, we can only think about how to solve it. Don't worry too much, his father is from the geology team, and he should also have some basic survival skills in the wild. ”

"Well, okay."

Now the child is really getting bolder! After hanging up the phone, I immediately received an MMS message from Zhao Mingquan.

When I opened it, I didn't see that it was a map. The photo shows a lot of zigzag lines, crisscrossing and crisscrossing. If this is a map, then every line on it is a road, then this is too responsible, it is a maze

Suddenly, I saw the familiar words again, the strange symbols in Zhao Mingquan's mouth.

The reason why I say it is familiar is because these strange symbols written diagonally under this mass of lines resemble the words on ancient coffins. There is a text on the ancient coffin that left a deep impression on me, and the text is like a small person in a painting. Among these strange characters, there is also one such villain text.

To be sure, my thoughts. I flipped out the photo of the coffin on my computer, and sure enough, I found this text like a small person in the place I remembered, exactly like the one in this photo.

I didn't think much of it, and immediately called Zou Zhou's father. But it still doesn't work.

I called Zou Zhou's mother while scolding, but fortunately, his mother answered. "Hey, Zou Zhou's mother, Sister Zhang? I'm a reporter from the newspaper, and I just received the news that Zou Zhou may have gone to the ghost cave of longevity, you should know about that place! “

"Oh."

I didn't expect Sister Zhang to be so calm. She paused for a moment and continued, "I know the place, his father has gone in to look for it. ”

I was shocked all of a sudden, Zou Xin had already gone in to look for it! No wonder his phone never got through.

"But Zou Xin can't get through on the phone now!"

Sister Zhang said in a heavy tone: "I know, in fact, when I knew that Zou Zhou entered the ghost cave, I was almost desperate, he was alone, and he would definitely not be able to get out." How I wish someone had told me I had seen my child somewhere else. “

"Don't despair! Call the police now, if the police look for it, they will definitely be able to rescue both father and son safely. ”

"Nope! Can't call the police! Reporter Lin, thank you, but we also have unavoidable hardships, all of which are fate. ”

I was about to say something more, but she hung up.

A last resort? But no matter what the reason, you shouldn't ignore the lives of your son and husband! I dialed Sister Zhang's phone again.

After the phone rang a few times, she still answered, and it seemed that she had not yet reached the point of despair. "Sister Zhang, I don't know what you have to worry about, in short, you have your own reasons. However, I hope you listen to me and don't give up until the end. "But there's no other way now."

I thought for a while and said, "Sister Zhang, where are you now?" I'll come to you and figure it out together. ”

"I'm here now" Suddenly the signal was not very good, there was no sound for a while, and after a while, I vaguely heard the sound of "dong dong" on the other side of the phone. Then Sister Zhang lowered her voice and said, "I can't talk to you now, I'll text you!" ”

Before I could react, Sister Zhang hung up the phone. Did something happen to her? Why can't you talk to me all of a sudden and text me instead?

While waiting for information, I searched the Internet for longevity ghost caves. Changshou Ghost Cave, also known as "Bamboo Ear Cave", is located in Tangba Village, Gelan Town, Changshou District. There are many forks in the cave, piles of bones, and bats, and there is a legend that this cave was once a refuge place for the "White Lotus Sect" rebels.

I also searched out some news, almost all of them are "Longevity Ghost Cave Presents Old Bones, with a History of Hundreds of Years", I clicked on it and found that it was still a news release issued by our newspaper, but it was news from 8 years ago, and it has nothing to do with me. Eight years ago, I was still in college.

I was perusing the news when my phone rang. It was a text message from Sister Zhang: Reporter Lin, if you are willing to help others to the end, please do me a favor one last time. Zou Xin and I made an appointment to meet them at the entrance of the cave at 12 noon today. If they don't come out, find a way to seal the hole. I can't go now, you help me go to the cave to meet them, and if they come out, tell them that I love them. Remember, no matter what happens, never call the police!

Everything came so suddenly, how did it suddenly become like this? I don't know if something happened to Sister Zhang, and I don't dare to call her. So I texted back: Okay, Sister Zhang. Did something happen to you over there?

Sister Zhang didn't reply to me, time didn't wait for anyone, I decided to set off immediately. It's 9:15 a.m., and I'm going to get to the Cave of Longevity by 12 noon. Time was of the essence and I suddenly felt nervous. I wrote down the address of the ghost hole on my computer in a small notebook. After thinking about it for a while, I put my camera in a drawer, put my bag on my back and set off.

Walking out into the street, I was ready to take a taxi to the station and then a long bus. But there were no taxis on the way, and I was in a hurry when a Land Rover pulled up in front of me.

I was wondering, and when I wanted to walk away, the window opened, and the driver in the cab was waving at me, "Xiaomin!" ”

"Uncle Qing!"

"Xiao Min, get in the car!"

So I opened the door and got on the train, thinking that I was worried that I couldn't get a taxi now, so I would just let Uncle Qing take me to the station.

Uncle Qing said, "Far away, I saw a beautiful woman standing on the side of the road. I was about to look, but when I took a closer look, it turned out to be our Xiaomin. ”

"Uncle Qing, are you teasing me again?"

After I got in the car, Uncle Qing stepped on the accelerator and drove out.

"Xiaomin, where are you going? Since you have met, Uncle Qing will send you. ”

I asked pretendedly, "Don't you know that Uncle Qing is on the way?" Won't that delay your business? "Wherever we Xiaomin goes, I will go. Originally, I just wanted to go there and play chess, nothing important. Say, where is Xiaomin going? "Uncle Qing, you can take me to the bus station." "What are you doing at the bus station?" "I'm going to live a long life, and I have something to deal with." "Longevity! Does Meng Yingjiu know? "He doesn't know." "Why didn't you tell him?" "That's my job." I thought for a while and said, "Uncle Qing, you misunderstood. Actually, Meng Yingjiu and I are simple roommates. “

Uncle Qing said, "Is that really the case? I don't think it's possible, or he wouldn't have brought you to me yesterday. "Yesterday just happened to be there too. He didn't mean to take me to you. “

Uncle Qing smiled and said nothing, and after a while, he said, "Last night, Meng Yingjiu asked me a question. “

I asked curiously, "What's the problem?" “

Uncle Qing glanced at me and said, "He asked me what Dabai is." ”
