Chapter 10 Grave Search
"Get in the car, what are you doing in a daze?" In the Yungang City Bus Terminal, the No. 24 bus was stopping at the gate, and Lei Baoquan saw Li Bai standing next to the car stunned and shouted.
Li Bai looked back at him and said, "Uncle Lei, you wait for me, I'll go buy something." With that, he trotted to a roadside stall to buy four bottles of water and ran back.
"You didn't drink enough at the snack bar just now?" Jin Guo took the water handed over and asked.
"I was thirsty from eating jajangmyeon just now, and I still want to drink it after drinking so much." Li Bai replied.
"You're all set, right? Did I drive? Driver Cao Feng asked as he looked in the rearview mirror.
The three of them sat in the back seat of the driver's seat, very close to Cao Feng, and they all gestured that there was no problem. The car started slowly, and it was already 8:40 a.m.
"It's a little late to leave today, is it okay?" Lei Baoquan asked.
"It's okay, this car only goes twice a day, and no one cares if it's a few minutes late. Besides, there weren't many people sitting. Cao Feng said with a smile.
The car went to the platform where they got on the train yesterday in Lei Baoquan, and two more passengers got on and sat in the seats behind them.
Li Bai watched the car drive out of Yungang City immediately, leaned on the back of the chair and said, "It seems that there are not many people tonight." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two people behind him shouted, "Driver, please stop." ”
Cao Feng slowly stopped the car, and the four of them looked back at the two people just now in confusion, only to see the female passenger complaining about the male passenger next to him: "I asked you to check your things before you went out, how can you forget to bring them?" ”
"I didn't look closely, I wasn't in a hurry." The male passenger replied.
"I'm sorry, driver, we forgot to bring something, so we got out of the car first." The female passenger apologized and got off the bus with the man.
Jin Guo looked back at Li Bai and said, "Look at your broken mouth, let's talk about it, let's say that the only two people are gone." ”
Li Bai stuck out his tongue, and he didn't expect that he could "predict" success.
The driver started the car, took a long breath, and said with a smile: "Oh, thanks to you, if I drive back alone tonight, and an old man or an old lady comes up in the middle of the road, I guess I can be scared to death." ”
Lei Baoquan laughed when he heard this, and said, "Otherwise, we will get out of the car." ”
"Don't don't, big brother, if you get out of the car, I'll get out of the car too, I'd rather leave the car here." Cao Feng said busily.
A few people laughed, as if they had forgotten about last night's horror.
Halfway through the car, away from Yungang City, there are fewer and fewer scattered houses around, and after the last stop on the way, there is still no one to get on the bus again.
"Looks like it's just the four of us tonight." Jin Guo said.
"Don't be in a hurry, what if the old man comes again in a moment?" Li Bai said.
Lei Baoquan slapped Li Bai on the back of the head: "Just your crow's mouth, if that old man really gets in the car in a while, you will sit next to him!" ”
Li Bai pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Cao Feng was also very nervous along the way, for fear that he would suddenly see someone on the unmanned road like last night, and in that case, whether it was a person or a ghost, he would drive over without blinking.
Jin Guo leaned against the car window and looked out, there were no street lights outside, there was a row of small trees on the side of the road, the moon was very big tonight, and the outside was also bright, looking at it, he suddenly said: "Cao Feng, do you remember where the old man got in the car last night?" ”
Cao Feng, who was driving, was stunned for a moment and nodded: "I probably remember, it should be not far ahead, it's almost there, what's wrong?" ”
"When you get there, stop and I'll go down and have a look." Jin Guo said.
Li Bai asked in disbelief: "Brother Guo, what are you going to do?" You're not going to greet the old man, are you? You're too bold! ”
Jin Guo shook his head and said, "When the old man came up last night, I felt strange, how could there suddenly be an old man in a deserted place, I want to see what kind of environment is there, why the old man got in the car there." ”
"You're not Uncle Li, you think you can see the environment and know why it's haunted, let me tell you, there are evil ghosts in the backwoods, have you ever heard of it?" Li Bai said.
"It seems to be a poor country out of the woods, right?" Lei Baoquan said.
"Uh...... The meaning is the same, don't take it seriously. Li Bai said embarrassedly.
The three of them were talking when suddenly the car stopped. Li Bai was the first to react, looked at the door, and said, "What?" The old man is here again? ”
"No... Yesterday he got in the car where he arrived. Cao Feng said.
"Oh, scare me, I thought Cao Cao Cao was here." Li Bai secretly exhaled.
The three of them got out of the car, and Jin Guo looked around by the moonlight, except for the trees on the side of the road, all that was left was a piece of farmland, and a little farther away were a few hills, overgrown with shrubs and dwarf trees.
"Nothing?" Li Bai looked at the surrounding environment and said.
"Why do I always feel wrong?" Jin Guo said, he vaguely had a feeling of indescribability.
"I said, are you thinking too much? Maybe the old man got into the car randomly? Brother Feng, have you met that old man before? Li Bai felt that this was an accident and asked Cao Feng for verification.
Cao Feng thought for a while and said, "I don't have an impression, I should have seen it for the first time last night." ”
"Look, maybe it was only once last night, and it will be difficult to see it in the future." Li Bai said.
Lei Baoquan was a little cautious like Jin Guo, and said: "But after all, that old man may have something to do with the murder, thieves have nests, even if they are ghosts, there must be a tomb, right?" ”
"Uncle Lei, you... What do you mean? You're not looking for the old man's grave, are you? Li Bai felt that these two people were too bold.
Lei Baoquan and Jin Guo did not answer, but the purpose was the same.
"Cao Feng, do you have a flashlight in the car?" Jin Guo asked.
"Huh? Oh, there is. Cao Feng said, took out the flashlight and handed it to Jin Guo, and asked, "You won't really look for it, will you?" ”
"I didn't expect it just now, but when I heard Uncle Lei say this, I really want to look for it." Jin Guo said with a smile that he just liked the feeling of adventure.
"But do we have to come here late at night? Can't you come back tomorrow during the day? Li Bai said helplessly.
"Don't you think it's better to come at night?" Lei Baoquan said with a grin.
"Uncle Lei, this is not your style! Don't you always like to push others in front of you when there is something dangerous and terrifying? Why are you so proactive today? Li Bai asked.
"Although I was a little scared of this environment, I was more curious than afraid. Moreover, I haven't changed my style, isn't this Xiao Jin in front of me? Lei Baoquan smiled and patted Jin Guo on the shoulder.
"You two are really... Let me declare first, I won't go, you can go by yourself, I'll wait for you in the car. Li Bai said.
"That's fine, let's just take a look around and come back." Lei Baoquan replied.
"That..." The two were just about to leave, Cao Feng got out of the car and called them, the three of them looked at him puzzled, Cao Feng smiled embarrassedly and asked Li Bai: "You just said you wouldn't go, right?" ”
"yes, how about I'll stay with you? Interesting enough, right? Li Bai raised his chin and said.
"Enough! Enough! yes, what I'm thinking is... If you don't go, then I'll go with them, how about you help me watch the car? Cao Feng said with a smile.
Lei Baoquan and Jin Guo laughed, Li Bai glared at Cao Feng angrily, and said, "Big brother! I'm with you, why are you embarrassed to leave me here alone? Besides, aren't you scared to death? ”
"I'm so scared, so I think it's better to be with these two brothers than with you in the car, because you're watching... It doesn't seem to be as powerful as the two of them. Cao Feng said embarrassedly.
"I'm really..." Li Bai couldn't speak, took a deep breath, and finally said: "Okay, since that's the case, then I won't force you, I'll go with you." ”
The four men turned off the car, turned off the lights, and parked on the side of the road, although the bus stopped in such an environment as abrupt, but fortunately, it was so late, and there were hardly any cars passing on this road.
Four men walked down the side of the road with a flashlight and followed the path in the field to find it in the distance.
"I feel like we'll have to have the luck of a blind cat hitting a dead mouse to find it." Li Bai said as he walked.
"When I was a child, I lived in the countryside, and some neighbors would dig a grave in a remote place when they died, and they would not be cremated, so it is very likely that the old man was buried somewhere, and it should be around here, so everyone should pay more attention." Lei Baoquan said.
"But in this wilderness, there is no one around, who would bury their family here." Cao Feng said.
"Isn't this a field? Someone farming means someone is here. Jin Guo analyzed.
"Wait." Li Bai suddenly shouted and stopped.
The other three were shocked, thinking something was wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I've drunk too much water, pee." Li Bai said with a grin.
"Go!"
Li Bai turned his back and shouted, "Don't go too fast, wait for me to come along." Then he put the water down, still muttering, "Fertilize you." ”
After solving the problem, Li Bai chased after the three people in front of him with his pants, and suddenly saw a tree not far from his left, and there was a bright light next to the tree, like a faint and flickering fire.
Li Bai hurriedly followed the three people in front of him and said in a panic: "Look over there!" ”
The three of them looked over and saw the fire, Cao Feng was a little frightened, and said, "I've heard, this can't be a ghost fire, right?" ”
Although Li Bai was studying abroad, he had also heard the word "ghost fire", so he immediately exclaimed: "No, right? Is it my constitution that caused it? ”
"Don't panic, let's go over and take a look." Jin Guo turned off the flashlight and said.
"Do you still want to go over? Shouldn't it be time to leave before it finds out? Li Bai said hurriedly.
Lei Baoquan patted him on the back comfortingly and said, "Don't panic, there is me and Xiaojin, what's the matter with Xiaojin, Uncle will run away with you!" ”
