"What's going on?" Yang Shizhong first shouted in Mandarin, and then immediately roared with them in Miao language, the voice was like an awakened male lion, roaring angrily, "What's the matter with the third uncle?" ”

I stood and listened as they fought a few paces apart in their loudest voices, fearing that the fear and helplessness in my heart would be buried by trembling words. I squatted down silently, looking at this human skin, sure enough, it was the same as before, there was a bloody hole between my legs, and the blood was still seeping out of it, and gradually the smell of blood spread, my eyes were red, and I felt that this smell stimulated my nerves all the time, I thought I was like a vampire, stood up, and looked into the distance, where the area was covered by towering trees, and the sunlight could not reach the ground through the dense forest, and the darkness in the depths was like an abyss, and countless hungry eyes were looking at you behind you, like a vicious beast, Like the devil.

The human skin is very small, the size of a child, even if his third uncle shrinks no matter how much it shrinks, I breathed a sigh of relief, and then I made a move that I couldn't even imagine, I grabbed the blood on the ground with my hand, and put it straight on my mask, and the fishy smell came from the surface, as if to awaken the most primitive blood in my heart, the throbbing buried in the deepest blood, and began to burst out in an all-round way.

"This is not your third uncle's corpse." I roared in the loudest voice, standing in front of countless people, and I raised my head and shouted, "Prepare me with oil oil, flashlight, and machete." They are in the dense forest, this is the smell of damp earth, only the woods that are not covered by sunlight have such mud, give me a bag, I will go to save people. ”

For a while, the atmosphere seemed to freeze, all the people looked at me with a look of surprise, maybe they couldn't speak Mandarin, but they couldn't understand Mandarin when they watched TV and the news every day, I shouted, and then Yang Shizhong suddenly yelled in Ao Miao language, and then in 3 minutes, a patched backpack was placed in front of me, "Follow me" I didn't talk nonsense, and Yang Shizhong made a gesture "The blood is still fresh, which is mixed with 2 flavors, one is the human skin, and the other is from the depths of the dense forest." , with a strong earthy flavor. ”

"And we're going to the woods?" Yang Shizhong gasped hurriedly.

"Questions?" I jumped over a field. shouted in response to the harsh wind.

"It's called Ghost Mountain, and that's where the tomb robbers dug up the tomb, and there's something unusual there, because the area dates back to the Cretaceous period, and there are too many fossils of paleontology buried in it, too many unknown and mysterious creatures." The sound of the wind grew louder and louder as I walked along, and the sound of a thousand sounds in my ears was a chaotic tone, like an ancient dragon standing on the top of a mountain and roaring at the world.

"Can we not go in, then?" I replied loudly, and the wind cut my words into several pieces scattered in the turbulence of the air.

Yang Shizhong didn't speak, we stepped into the river one after another, the water was turbulent, but we couldn't take our steps, "Your physical strength is much better."

"Really?" I yelled, and the sound rushed through the wind and the water, conveying the past.

"Yes, me." Before I could finish speaking, I rushed into the dense forest. Stepping on the soft moss, it is like rushing on the moon without gravity, and the rapid wind will lift us up to the ground, and the sun will fall directly without fear in the open space without the shade of the woods, although the higher the altitude and the closer to the sun, the biting air when I can run, like a straitjacket, is not wrapping me all the time.

The forest greets us with the attitude of a god looking at the world.

It was a very dull stretch of the road, only a little sunlight shining on my face through the bamboo leaves, and the stinging sensation of the swaying of the bamboo back and forth on my face made me have the urge to rush through this area in one breath, but when I walked out of the bamboo forest and entered the primeval forest, I found that the little sunlight just now was hidden in the leaves of the sky. It's like the dull color given to us by the woods is no longer enough to describe it, the gloomy feeling comes to the face, because there is no sun for many years, and few people walk, so the wood under our feet is covered with moss and slippery, so we have to turn on the flashlight to prevent something from slipping.

After a while, the sunlight is shining in freshly, and the trees are not dense enough to be invisible, but there are dark areas at intervals.

Most of the trees here are towering trees, because of the unique environment they all grow wildly, except for the big trees that can be seen at a glance, the weeds and vines in the deep forest are staggered and multiplied, and there is a small river on our left, the water is light, and the fish and shrimp are all over, but they are thickly covered with a layer of these grassy vines like a big quilt in winter. This kind of stem plant is very attached to other things, and the trees at the bottom of the river are completely occupied by them, relying on such a little attachment to form a covering layer on the river surface, we watch and slowly walk into this mysterious botanical park, raise your head and your own insignificance suddenly stands out, the "they" in the sky are like ancient giants guarding this area, let him change in time.

"There's no blood." I gasped, "I can't walk anymore." "Raising my head and looking at Yang Shizhong, who was also too tired, I realized that my physical strength had really changed a lot, I don't know if it was from that day? Perhaps this kind of change will continue, is it a revival of memory in disguise? I was a little relieved, but I was overwhelmed and scared by the fact that I was becoming more and more unfamiliar.

But I can't stop yet, time is too rushed, I can only know that the thing captured the old man, but I don't know why I want to arrest him, time is life, at this moment I have never experienced this sentence deeply.

There were all kinds of vegetation along the way, and the most was bamboo, so I pushed aside the bamboo and rushed forward. And I could only silently follow Yang Shizhong along the route after Yang Shizhong's axe felling, following the path in a roundabout way, the trees here are much denser than before at the bottom of the mountain, often he turned a corner in front of him and couldn't see his figure at all. And I only felt the feeling brought to us by the branches, and rushed forward a few steps before I could barely see the color of Yang Shizhong's clothes.

As always, the sound of grass speeding and brushing is in your ears, as if there is another person running on your side at the same time as you run, Yang Shizhong seemed to be a little annoyed, pushed aside a head-high weed, and heard a deep voice behind him: "You, are you sure it's here?" I've never been to this place before, and you can't go this way if you don't find a guide! ”

"Tour guide? Don't think about it. I was speechless for a while, "You can look at your feet when you run, the vegetation there is freshly trodden, and the few ground cover plants have sap squeezed out, which is the remnant of the very strong foot foot. ”

Gradually, we have entered the abyss of the forest, the sunlight is completely sprinkled at this time, we walked forward cautiously, the winding path does not know who stepped out, Yang Shizhong told me that there are still some relics of the ancients here, because the vegetation covers too much so some of the buildings hidden in the depths of the jungle are still relatively well preserved.

Not long after the forest mountain slowly revealed, Yang Shizhong said that this mountain is the place where the ancient tomb was found, we came in from the side of the mountain on my left hand side, the front is still dense vegetation, and the left hand side is a piece of bare rock, the rock is covered with caves, look up, the top of the cave is dozens of meters high, narrow and empty.

"We can't go into the mountain, since the mountain collapsed, the inside of the mountain has sunk in, and it has become a natural sinkhole, although there are some plants around the sinkhole, but it is not enough to put creatures close, but it is like a trap, you will fall into it if you accidentally walk on the criss-crossing tree poles." Yang Shizhong swore solemnly: "So let's look around the forest." ”

"That's right." I looked at the plants that were pressed down and breathed a sigh of relief, "I also think it's better not to pass." "But looking at the large ancient hazel forest in front of me, I also feel like we're really like a small fish in the sea now.

Suddenly a rustling sound in the jungle startled my thoughts, and I turned back suddenly, only to find that we had fallen into the depths because we had run too fiercely, and this place was different from the place before, and there was no road at all when I looked around, and there were lush grass and trees around me, and the footprints of our footsteps were gone, and all traces of man-made were not revealed.

"This is a truly pristine area!" Yang Shizhong sighed, "I also went crazy to run in with you." ”

"What the hell is in here?" I stopped and looked at everything.

"What's here?" Yang Shizhong smiled and said, "Savages, primitive creatures, and some strange plants like the ones we saw in the tomb last time. ”

"That's all?"

"Isn't that enough? Not many of our people actually go into the depths of the jungle, and in 87 the central government organized an expedition, and in the end they didn't come out. ”

My face twitched a little when I heard this, "Then why didn't you tell me this before." ”

"Who knew you'd actually come in!" Yang Shizhong half-pretended to cry and said, "When I was in the car, I didn't want to say too much irrelevant nonsense, when I was in the village, you and I were a little out of control." And then we stopped once before, and that time we were already in here, and you said you know where the third uncle is. ”

"Hey, hey, hey," I felt a cold sweat overflowing from my mask, "You're planting, I'm just saying that I know the direction of that footprint, and besides, you yourself are obviously like you are to blame me for rescuing your third uncle, and you are the most out of control in the village." I tried to make my voice deeper, "What's going on, what the hell is going on." ”

"Damn, you dare to learn from me, can this thing be used as a joke? Human lives matter. ”

"Yes, yes, it's all about human life, and you still put the blame on it." As I spoke, my voice became quieter, for a subtle moan suddenly appeared in my ears, and this voice haunted your ears all the time, like the whispers of ancient demons to you, like the bewitching rhythm of mermaids in the sea. I stopped talking and listened to everything, there was only one voice in heaven and earth at this moment.

"What sound?" Yang Shizhong whispered.

"Shhhh I heard the voice sing in a strange tone through the jungle, slowly as my heart beat louder and faster, more and more violently, like the vicissitudes of a dragon's roar, like an ancient war song, like a fire burning to the edge of the sky.

My heart seemed to be unable to withstand the pressure and began to contract sharply, and my ears were buzzing, and suddenly something drove the grass and trees to flutter like thousands of ants crawling over your eardrums.

It was an oval-shaped thing, the back part was slightly protruding, gray with large and small spots, and the body was engraved with unknown ancient characters, we looked at each other and walked over step by step, and after a few seconds, the screams could no longer resist the tide of fear, a human head, a human head that had long been turned into white bones, he suddenly appeared in front of your eyes, and all the emotions burst out.

"Skull?" Suddenly, the skull turned around and looked, the man's face was full of two hollow eye sockets and a mouthful of earthy gray teeth, and then the most terrifying thing happened, the head actually jumped up, and he jumped on my hand, I shook my body and threw the thing out, and a few seconds later there was a hissing sound in the forest behind me. From one sound to another, the whole mountain resounded with this trembling cry, like a wild beast seeking food in the middle of the night.

"What's that?" Yang Shizhong's voice almost trembled, he had forgotten that he was the only one by his side, a person who had never set foot here.

"Fuck you, run." I seemed to have crawled out of the abyss of fear, just as Yang Shizhong spoke, the whole forest began to shake sharply, the tall cold mountain forest and the arrow bamboo attached to the tree began to emit a "Xisuo" resonance, I could no longer care about the word image, wiped a handful of sweat, only to find this mask, and then stumbled out.

"Is it a wild man talking?" Yang Shizhong continued to go crazy, the only thing that could keep him sane was those legs, instinct driving him forward.

"Is it a ghost?"

"A ghost in the mountains?"

"Their house was dug up before, so they came to get revenge on us."

He was still muttering to himself, like a living dead, no longer with his previous expression, his previous demeanor.

After a while, when I was about to slow down, the sound of the tree trunk swaying reached my ears, and then the light disappeared in an instant, but the cry and gasping of the beast behind me did not stop, and the branches of the trees in the dark area were crisscrossed in mid-air, and the trees of 4 or 5 people could be seen everywhere, and in places where there was little sunlight, the dwarf saplings might have grown to a place where he could surpass all the trees, a place where he could see the sun, and then wait for the next tree to surpass. At this time, we are like the little saplings that want to absorb the sun, and we are all moving forward, just to survive.

And what about us? Running around this area with your eyes closed, you don't know where you'll end up, and that may be the end of your death.
