Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Waterfall Spreads the Wonderful News

A group of people rushed into the courtyard back and forth, and when I stepped through the gate, I saw Li Youwu holding a sapper shovel in one hand and the other hand on his waist, standing on a stone table in the middle of the courtyard, as if scanning the entire space, with the tip of the sapper shovel pointing in a certain direction in the air, slowly rotating his body.

Ah Zi and Ah Hu Ah Leopard didn't know where they went, while Company Commander Wang and Tie Dan were shouting the names of their companions from room to room around the corridor, and Jin Facai stood next to me while picking his ears while looking at Li Youwu on the stone platform stupidly: "This kid, where is he playing?" ”

There was a extinguished bonfire in the middle of the courtyard, completely devoid of hot smoke, and this was where the soldiers had been chatting last night. I pulled a handful of Jin Fa Cai and walked to the room where the soldiers were making tea and sleeping yesterday, there was no one, the tea stove had been extinguished, I reached out and touched the stove, it was also cold.

In the daylight of the day, I can also see the whole mansion more clearly, with cobwebs half-hanging between the windows and door beams, and insect droppings everywhere on the ground.

"Abba! Grandma! "Ah Zi's voice came from upstairs, Jin Facai and I hurriedly followed the sound upstairs again, and saw Ah Hu and Ah Leopard standing there in a corridor, shrugged his shoulders when he saw us coming, and pointed to the room with his chin.

Ah Zi was already crying like a tearful person, kneeling on the floor, and I looked around the room, which was supposed to be her parents' bedroom, which was also full of dust.

"Calm down, your parents didn't live here a few years ago, we came to find them this time, have you forgotten?" I stepped forward to comfort her and helped her up: "The problem now is that not only are they gone, but even the two troops that were stationed here last night are gone, and I think if you find them, you may be able to find your parents." ”

"And what about them...... Don't they have walkie-talkies? Can you find them with guòGPS? Jin Facai interjected at this time.

"It's useless, I've searched it, blind spots, no signal at all." Company Commander Wang had already gone upstairs with several other soldiers, and his face was even more ugly than yesterday when he saw someone poisoned, and in the blink of an eye, twelve heavily armed soldiers disappeared from the world, making everyone at a loss.

Ah Zi wiped her tears, looked around the room again, she found a bamboo whistle like a small harmonica on the table, picked it up and wiped the dust, took it in her mouth and blew it a few times, looked up and said, "This is my favorite toy when I was a child, Abba made it for me." With that, he put it in his pocket and walked with us to the door.

We stood in the corridor on the second floor, all silent, Jin Facai took out a pack of cigarettes and handed them out to a few: "Don't worry, don't worry, things are coming little by little, don't mess up with yourself first." Don't we have two more masters...... Huh? What is this kid doing?"

Following the eyes of the blonde fortune, we stood on the verandah and saw that in the middle of the compound downstairs, Li Youwu was like a hunting dog, on all fours, crawling and sniffing the ground with his nose.

"Let's go! Go down and have a look! Company Commander Wang ran down first, and a few of us then ran to the middle of the courtyard.

Li Youwu was lying on the extinguished bonfire at this time, sniffing left and right, drawing something on the ground with his fingers from time to time, and after about a minute he stood up, patted the dirt on his hands, as if talking to himself and as if communicating with us, and whispered: "Strange...... Walked on your own? ”

"What? What are you talking about? Company Commander Wang asked.

Li Youwu didn't answer, just shook his head slightly, locked his eyebrows, and after a few seconds, he suddenly raised his head and asked Ah Zi, "Do you have any waterfalls here?" ”

"Yes! Rainbow Pool! When I heard this, I remembered Ah Zi's story, and quickly pulled her over: "The waterfall that Xiao Li said must be the rainbow pool you said!" Take us to see it! ”

Ah Zi should have thought of it a long time ago, nodded and ran towards the door: "It's close, more than a mile!" ”

We all followed, heading up a trail in the direction of the back mountain.

Ah Zi led the way in the front, followed by Li Youwu, Company Commander Wang and Tie Dan Xiao Liu, and I was in the middle with Jin Facai, Ah Hu, and Ah Leopard, and finally left three soldiers behind with guns.

Not long after walking, a soldier behind shouted: "Company commander! Stop! There is a discovery! ”

When I looked over, I saw a soldier picking up a bullet casing in the grass on the side of the road: "Company commander, look! ”

Company Commander Wang picked up the bullet casing and looked at the code at the bottom, "That's right, it's our people." ”

"Was there a shootout?" Tie Dan asked, "Then, could it be the same as I met yesterday...... So what......"

Several people were speculating on the ins and outs of the incident around a bullet casing, and Li Youwu walked over: "Keep going, there will be bullets ahead." ”

"How do you know?" I think Tiedan's question is also a question for most of us, and everyone looks at Lee Yoo-go.

He didn't answer, but just pointed to the direction of the rainbow pool in the middle of the mountain with a sapper shovel, and whispered: "Let's go, there it is." ”

There was no word all the way, everyone tensed their nerves, and looked around as they walked, except for the occasional birdsong, only the footsteps of a group of people. After walking about four or five hundred meters away, Li Youwu waved a hand to signal everyone to stop, and then bent down to pick up something from the ground: "Look, is it yours?" ”

Company Commander Wang was the first to step forward, and when I took it, I saw that it was indeed a blackened warhead, and then I couldn't help the doubts in my heart, so I asked: "Hey, don't sell it, how do you know?" ”

"It's not difficult, no matter how good a sharpshooter is, it's impossible to hit the air, right?" The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he continued to walk forward.

This sentence woke me up, yes, just like Tie Dan said yesterday, even if he never missed, it was impossible to hit the woman who was bathing in the water, so that means ...... The soldiers who fired the guns also met her, or encountered a spiritual illusion of the same nature as her, and if that was the case, it was indeed equivalent to aiming a bullet at the air.

There was already the sound of running water in the distance, and there was a slight amount of moisture in the air, Ah Zi turned around and shouted, "It's just ahead!" After speaking, he quickened his pace and ran forward, and everyone did not dare to slack off, so they all rushed up.

Rainbow Pool, as the name suggests, is a place where a rainbow can rise, although the sky is clear now, and there is no rainbow to see, but from the scene of a waterfall in front of you, and a large pool of turquoise water that stirs up countless white waves dozens of meters away at the foot of the mountain, you can also vaguely guess how beautiful the rainbow should be when it rises from here.

I was still lingering in the association about the rainbow, and I heard Ah Zi adding a few words of local dialect that I didn't understand, I turned around and asked Ah Hu what he meant, Ah Hu explained: "This is their dialect, I don't know too well, but the general meaning is missing ah or something, generally speaking, people in their place, as long as they stand on the top of the mountain and shout at the beginning, and then they will sing." ”

"Singing?" Jin Facai asked, "When has this been, and you still have the heart to sing?" ”

"Boss Jin, you don't know, their indigenous villagers in the mountains, singing is not what we sing outside for entertainment, singing is the same as their usual chat, some words are excited, they have to sing to express clearly, and some songs are like passwords between their own families, and they can convey a lot of meaning."

Before Ah Hu finished speaking, he heard Ah Zi's singing, and saw her standing on the cliff rock under the vertical of the waterfall, facing the roaring water at her feet, singing a melodious song, although I couldn't understand a word of the lyrics, but in her slightly sobbing voice, I also heard countless sorrows.

Everyone stood beside her, quietly listening to her singing, Li Youwu held up his sunglasses in one hand, looked up at the sky in the distance, his squinted eyes were motionless, as if he had reveled in the tune, or was missing someone.

Jin Facai leaned over and whispered in my ear: "This girl dances well, and she can't think of singing badly, when she returns to Shencheng, our nightclub will open, let her go to us to make a pillar, I don't think it's bad~"

I gave him a blank look: "Bajie, shut up." ”

"Hey! I'm serious......"

Lian Commander Wang also came over: "When will this go, if she doesn't stop, will we still be looking for someone?" ”

I waved my hand lightly: "Don't worry, let her vent her feelings first, she has been away from her hometown for too long in the past few years, please understand." ”

I don't know how long she sang, but it was almost time to end, she kept singing a phrase over and over again, and then took out the bamboo whistle from her pocket and blew it, which was a little different from the previous song, sometimes it sounded like mimicking the wind, sometimes like some kind of birdsong.

I'm actually a little impatient in my heart, I didn't expect that I just finished singing, and now it's blowing again, and I don't know when I'm going to blow it. The golden fat man looked heartless, he was still grinning, and followed the rhythm with one hand on his thigh, and when he saw me looking at him, he smiled and said: "Big official, this trip is for her, and people themselves are not in a hurry, what are you anxious about." Listen to the little song, it's a good blow, isn't it~"

As soon as he reminded him, he also felt that this was indeed the case, we were just stopping by to help this time, but I was worried that Company Commander Wang would inexplicably disappear more than a dozen comrades-in-arms overnight, and he was afraid that he would not be able to hold his breath.

I glanced at Company Commander Wang, who was frowning and pursing his lips, constantly looking at his watch, and some of the other soldiers were already sitting on the ground, some leaning against the big tree to avoid the scorching sun overhead.

Li Youwu still maintained the same posture as before, looking at the distant sky motionlessly, and twitching his nose from time to time.

I'm just now realizing that when this kid gets nervous, he will twitch his nose, like a dog, and this habitual action is really not very elegant. But his nose is indeed outstanding, if he is really the ancestral spirit we are looking for, then could his ancestor be a hunter?

I was thinking about his little action, and suddenly I saw him holding a sapper shovel with both hands, stepping a horse step, wearing sunglasses, although I couldn't see his eyes, but from his posture, I could see that he was staring at a certain place in front of him, which was clearly a look of preparation.

I immediately became alert, and also pulled out my pistol to look in the direction he was looking, of course, this small move could not avoid the anxious Wang Company Commander who had been waiting anxiously, only listened to his order: "Load!" Then there was a crackling sound of a rifle pulling a safety bolt.

Ah Zi looked back at us, then looked back at the sky in the distance, suddenly waved excitedly, and made a "hmm" sound from his mouth, and immediately realized something, quickly turned around and waved his hand at us and shouted: "Don't shoot!" Don't shoot!! Is that! That's ......" and then turned around and said, "Uh-huh-lu......" and then turned around again, "Don't shoot, don't shoot......"

She shouted back and forth in a panic of urgency and excitement.

I looked into the distant sky, but I saw a large black shadow suddenly rise in a small forest opposite, looking like hundreds of colorful kites, floating towards us......
