Chapter 54: A Night of Horror (2)
"Can't sleep?" Cha Wenbin asked.
"Aren't you the same?" Li Chenggong looked out the window with his hands on the pillow and said: "It's really exciting to follow you guys, it reminds me of those years at the border, all day and all night when corpses were transported down from the mountains, and we slept on the corpses of those comrades-in-arms and enemies, why didn't you know to be afraid at that time?" ”
"Because you are a warrior," said Cha Wenbin, "those living enemies are far more terrible than the dead, are you not even afraid of the living, and you are afraid of the dead?" ”
"But I'm a little scared today," Li Chenggong hadn't been afraid for a long time, because of his profession, he had never known what fear was, but he felt uncomfortable staying here tonight, and a nervous feeling surrounded him from head to toe. "I don't know what I'm afraid of, the older people get, the younger they get, and some of them make you laugh."
"I won't hide it from you," Cha Wenbin said: "I am also a little nervous, when I was very young, my master took me to spend the night in Yizhuang and mass graves, and it is naturally commonplace to do my job." I was nervous not because I was afraid, but because I was a little unsure, the place was a little inexplicable, and in the afternoon I saw a face in the mirror, and if I was not mistaken, that face belonged to the original owner of this house. ”
"Then he is watching us from this room," Li Chenggong said: "How fierce can an old man who guards the mountain all the year round be, I have seen many murderous murderers, and I have also seen supernatural incidents in prisons, but those people are usually used to doing evil, when do you plan to start doing it?" ”
Cha Wenbin glanced at the fat man on the bed and said: "Look at his reaction, if he is safe and sound tonight, then I will spend a little time early tomorrow morning, if he has something, then it proves that it is not so simple, do you think that group of people came here to find those tombs?" I don't think it's very likely, there are some rumors in Anxian County now, and there are people looking for them everywhere, so it's too risky to start at this time. You go to sleep first, he has a thread tied to me, and I will wake up when there is any movement. ”
Everyone has their own thoughts in their hearts, maybe they haven't moved for too long, maybe they are a little tired from climbing the mountain during the day, Cha Wenbin actually started to fight with his eyelids in a drowsy state. I don't know what time it is, suddenly there was a quick knock on the door outside, and several people woke up immediately, and before they could open the door, the door was knocked open by Wang Liang, and Chen Zhen came with him, and the faces of the two young people were full of panic.
"Don't worry, just talk about it slowly." Cha Wenbin comforted: "Don't panic, tell me what's wrong?" ”
Yang ...... It's Yang Feng......" Wang Liang couldn't even speak, "What's wrong with Yang Feng?" ”
He ...... He's gone! ”
After returning to the room, the three young people did not fall asleep, and the three of them told each other about the grievances of the past few days, and they were talking and talking before they knew that it was almost midnight. After all, the hard work in the field is quite physically demanding, so several people unconsciously shrank into the quilt when they approached the child. Soon after falling asleep, Wang Liang felt that someone was moving in the bed, and he turned over in a daze and saw that it was Yang Feng, Yang Feng was relatively dull, I heard that he came from a 211 key university, and many classmates in the class were assigned to large units, and he was always a little unhappy when he came to this remote small place.
Wang Liang, as the captain and their eldest brother, has been taking care of Yang Feng, and when he comes back to cook after work on weekdays, he is also close to himself and Chen Zhen, I heard that Yang Feng's family conditions are not good, his mother died, his father works outside all the year round, and he grew up with his grandparents. As usual, Yang Feng listened most of tonight, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two, and they were used to this situation.
Yang Feng has the habit of getting up at night, there is no toilet in this place, and most of them choose to solve it in the outdoor open space. On the right side of the house, a few young men dug a pit with two wooden planks on it, and covered it with simple stone slabs to make a simple toilet.
felt that he got up, and Wang Liang also asked: "Yang Feng, are you going to the toilet?" It's cold outside, remember to put on a dress. ”
The latter said "um" softly, Wang Liang didn't think much about it, and after falling asleep for a while, suddenly a spirit made him completely awake, and he remembered one thing, Yang Feng didn't seem to have a flashlight when he went out just now. This place is in the forest, the night is very dark, and they will carry a flashlight when they go to the toilet on weekdays, thinking of what might happen tonight, Wang Liang quickly woke up the sleeping Chen Zhen.
"Chen Zhen, wake up, Yang Feng said that he went out to the toilet, I'm a little worried, you come with me to take a look."
They are all young people who are working hard outside, Chen Zhen rubbed his eyes and then struggled to crawl out of the bed, and when the two of them got dressed and turned on the flashlight and were about to go out, Chen Zhen looked up at the wall above the bed. The first thing he did after entering the room was to paste the talisman that Cha Wenbin gave him, and at this time, the lower half of the talisman had disappeared, and it was torn apart from the traces.
His mind suddenly "buzzed", and he hurriedly asked Wang Liang: "What about the talisman on this, how can you teach people to tear it up?" ”
"I don't know!" Wang Liang remembered that no one had gotten up since they fell asleep, and an inexplicable fear immediately struck, so the only possible thing was the Yang Feng who walked out just now, and the two hurriedly rushed to the door, and there was still a talisman posted above the door, and then a look at this talisman was completely gone.
The two of them rushed to the simple toilet with flashlights and saw that it was empty, and they knew that something was wrong, so they hurriedly knocked on the door to find Cha Wenbin for help.
Cha Wenbin comforted: "Don't panic, according to your statement, it didn't take more than ten minutes before and after Yang Feng left, now we will go and find it." ”
The fat man pointed to the bed he slept on and said, "What about here, don't you care?" ”
"No matter, it's important to find someone first," Cha Wenbin was very puzzled in his heart, looking at the torn talisman, he suspected that Yang Feng might have a problem early in the morning, but he didn't see it. If it was really the undead wandering in this room, Cha Wenbin vouched for the unlikely way it would have passed through the door where the talisman was posted. These are two Shangqing spirit runes, mainly used to ward off evil spirits, Cha Wenbin still has some confidence in his own talisman, if he can regard this talisman as useless, then there are only two possibilities: one is that there are very powerful things that are not afraid of talismans at all, and there is another possibility that Yang Feng was "controlled" earlier.
"Control?" Wang Liang shuddered a little when he heard this word: "Who will control him, we have been in this mountain for so long, and we have never done anything to offend people." ”
Cha Wenbin said: "If some people are controlled by some evil arts, then it is like a thoughtless walking corpse, unlike being possessed by dirty things, the controlled person will not be able to see the clues in ordinary times, and will only be like that when it is effective." This makes me a little uneasy, because there are people we are looking for who know this kind of sorcery, and if we meet them, I am afraid it will not be very good. ”
The possessed person will be afraid when he sees the talisman, that is because he has dirty things on his body, and things such as puppetry and Gu art can completely avoid Dao talismans or magic weapons, so the harm of the latter is often greater, that is, some experienced old Taoist priests will ignore it before they see the onset of the disease.
Time is pressing, although Cha Wenbin has verbally told Wang Liang and Chen Zhen not to worry, only he knows that he is now in a race against death, and he must find a way to find the missing Yang Feng in the shortest possible time. But as soon as you go out of the gate, there are mountains on all sides, and it is not the rainy season, and there is not even a single footprint on the ground, so where did the people go?
"Do you remember where you said you bumped into Lao Xu in the mountains that day?"
Wang Liang said: "Remember the general direction, follow the road ahead for four or five kilometers until there is a small stream to cross, and then ......."
"Stop the ink," the fat man urged, "It's useless to wait for you to explain anything, you lead the way in front, hurry!" ”
Fortunately there was a moon tonight, and the visibility was not very bad, and at the speed of a normal person, they could go out for two or three miles at most in ten minutes, and besides, this was still up the mountain, so they had to speed up their steps.
Cha Wenbin is actually according to his intuition, this intuition is gambling, in fact, he doesn't know anything about this place, if he bets right, he may be able to save Yang Feng, if he loses, then I'm afraid even he will feel guilty. The mountain road at night is not easy to walk, Wang Liang and Chen Zhen are worried about their companions and have completely forgotten their fear and fear, this forest is too dense and too deep, walking up the hill and looking back at the house in the distance, the miserable white walls and black windows look like a skeleton in the moonlight.
In this breath, they chased out five miles, and several of their big men were tired and panting, and they still hadn't seen Yang Feng's shadow until now, and even Cha Wenbin wondered if he was going in the wrong direction. Seeing him hesitating there, Li Chenggong said, "Didn't you say that Lao Xu was the last to find him on the grave behind the house?" Could the kid not have gone up the mountain at all, and we haven't searched much around the emergency area where we came out, or should I go back first? ”
Cha Wenbin was about to agree with his idea, but at this moment, Wang Liang, who was at the forefront, shouted: "Big brothers, if there is a situation, come and see!" ”
There is a plant in this forest called tiger thorns, which are vines covered with triangular barbs, and many people in the mountains have suffered from this thing in the past. Wang Liang found a piece of dark blue cloth in the thorn, which people used to call labor cloth, and this cloth was Wang Liang's work clothes, and now they are both wearing the same clothes.
"It seems that my instinct is correct," Cha Wenbin said, "He is really heading that way, you continue to lead the way, time is pressing!" ”
