With great effort, everyone managed to escape from the underground river, and when the man had recovered his iron rod, I immediately gave the order to leave the cave.

The baby-faced baby fish stayed underground for a long time, afraid of the bright sun, and did not dare to climb out of the ground for a while.

However, even though it is noon, it is cloudy outside, and it is still raining lightly not far away, so it is possible that the baby-faced baby fish may take the opportunity to climb up.

Everyone was in a hurry to flee for their lives, completely ignoring the east, west, north and south, and running away, and when they were far away from the entrance of the cave, they found that we had deviated from the direction of progress, and the team had to stop and readjust the direction of travel.

The teammates had only slept for an hour or two last night, and then they began to run for their lives, and they were all too tired to speak.

I consulted with Guide You about his whereabouts, and found that in addition to the look of tiredness on his face, there was also a trace of sadness, and after asking, I realized that he and Ugin were actually relatives.

The current population of the Hezhe people is very small, so many of the people in one place are related to each other. Ugin's death made him very sad, but he was a tough guy and had no obvious appearance.

When I heard this, I immediately expressed my condolences to him, and if he felt in danger now and wanted to leave, I would not stop him. After all, we, the inverted fighting craftsmen, know very well in our hearts that what we are doing is a dangerous cause that pins our heads to the waistband of our trousers, and we have long been prepared in our hearts and have never thought about what is behind us. But Ugin and Guides You are just guides we have hired, and although they have been told that the journey will be life-threatening, they are different from us after all. I don't give up halfway, and I don't blame him.

Guide You is a complete Northeast tough guy, and immediately said: "Manly man." Spit is a nail, how can it be reversed. Unkindness and injustice. Besides, now that I'm the only one left in the guide, if I don't do it at this time, instead of directly abandoning you people in a strange and dangerous place, this is not the same as killing you indirectly, and it is really a great sin! I would never do such a treacherous thing. ”

Guide You's words made everyone's hearts warm and warm, and the feelings of loss also warmed up.

Now that the tomb in the Sanjiang Plain can be determined to no longer exist in Zài, the team turned around and headed north. Go to the Small Khing'an Mountains, then go west to the Great Khing'an Mountains.

The journey north became easier as the terrain began to rise and there were folded undulating plains and low hills instead of waist-deep river wetlands. Although there is no means of transportation, you can hunt along the way, which not only solves the problem of food and clothing, but also relaxes and pleasures everyone's body and mind, so that everyone forgets the haze in the swamp wetland for a while.

After three days of non-stop trekking. The team had moved away from the wetlands of devouring swamps and poisonous gas mist, and were all over the look.

As night fell, we crossed the plain and reached a pine forest. In the distance, you can see the rolling hills. The mountains are full of emerald trees, and the green mountains are far away, which is particularly enchanting.

After tonight, we will enter the mountains. Therefore, the team must have a good rest and take care of their health. But because you can't make a fire to keep warm. And they continued to make hammocks in the woods, and no longer slept on the dew-soaked grass.

Inside a silent pine forest. There was a faint scent of pine wafting through it, which was very helpful for sleep, and I soon relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. In the middle of the night, I suddenly felt someone blowing in my ear, which made my ears itch very unbearably. But because his eyelids were too heavy, he couldn't open them, so he waved his hand in his ear, thinking that it should be the fallen leaves on the tree, so he continued to fall asleep.

As a result, after a while, I was surprised to find someone fanning my ear, which made me wake up again, and said to myself: Who is it who does not sleep in the middle of the night and plays with me here? The first thing I thought of was Zha Ling'er, and I said that this girl is really bold enough, and she is not ashamed, what if she is seen by others?

But when I barely opened my eyes, I found that there was no one around, and I thought that it must be windy, so I tightened my clothes and continued to sleep.

I wasn't worried about someone or a beast sneaking up, because someone was keeping watch in the dark, and if there was any danger, someone would have notified us a long time ago, so I would be confident and bold enough to continue to sleep.

However, after sleeping for a while, I don't know if I had auditory hallucinations or in a dream. I heard the gritty voice again, crying out repeatedly, "What a miserable death I have!" ”

The ghost came to the door again to disturb my sleep, and I opened my eyes in amazement and surprise. The heart said: Why did this ghost roaring ghost chase all the way from the island forest to here, and why did he refuse to let go of our sweet dreams, and had to cruelly destroy sleep?

When you open your eyes, in the darkness around you, there is only the dim moonlight and the dots of starlight, and then nothing else.

In the silence I heard the rest of the team wake up, and some even muttered complaints. It turned out that it was not a dream, and the demon-like poignant voice suddenly came again, as if swearing an oath, refusing to let everyone go lightly.

The next day, everyone's faces were full of tiredness, and some even had dark circles on their faces, like pandas.

Zha Ling'er had always maintained a bright little face, but it was also very ugly, she said that she listened to the ghost call for a night, and she didn't sleep well at all.

The people were disturbed by the desolate cry of the evil spirit, and they did not sleep well all night, and after eating breakfast in a hurry, they dragged their tired bodies and continued to hurry.

After most of the day, the team finally left the plains and began to march through the turquoise wavy hills and mountains.

The verdant green in the eyes made everyone's mood much better.

Especially seeing a large area of wild mountain grapes and green vines, everyone can't help but swallow their saliva, but unfortunately it is not yet the season of fruit, or the sweet and sour wild mountain grapes can definitely make the tired people feel a hundred times,

But now is the specialty of Daxingan, a good time for wild blueberries to bear fruit, and the next destination, we can pick blueberries in our spare time from hunting and enjoy the gifts given by nature.

Probably influenced by the handsome hills, my mind was full of beautiful fantasies, and I didn't feel a trace of pressure.

As night fell, the team still chose to rest in the woods, which were much safer than the open hills and meadows.

However, in the current hot and humid season, if you look up at the bright night sky and fall asleep on the faintly scented meadow, you will definitely have a good dream.

But for the sake of safety, they had to rest in the woods full of mosquitoes, and the sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings in the middle of the night made everyone feel that there were bombers in their heads, and they were dropping bombs in shifts, which was not stable at all. Finally, when everyone couldn't open their eyes, the ghost screams of the unjust ghosts sounded again, and I had to prop up my heavy eyelids slightly and scan the surroundings.

As a result, there was nothing but darkness around it, gray-brown bark, and dark green foliage, and not even a ghost could be seen.

For the next few days, every night when it was time to rest, the hoarse and terrible screams of the evil spirits would reappear, and the teammates would stay up with a splitting headache until morning.

I found that everyone's mental state was very depressed, even the cigarette man who had been energetic, his shoulders were a little broken, and I immediately realized that this was not the way, this inexplicable ghost screamed, since we left the swamp, more and more arrogant and rampant, at night constantly affecting everyone's sleep, so as to kill everyone's will. Because everyone who can't get a good rest at night, the current mental state is very bad, and they have to rush around during the day, and if they continue like this, their bodies and minds will be severely frustrated, and they must find a way to solve the problem of ghosts roaring at night.

So, I decided to keep vigil myself at night.

The team was still overnight in the woods tonight, and I held the vajra and hid in the darkness, walking slowly and quietly near the camp where everyone was resting, and occasionally dodging behind the trees to move, and patrolling the surroundings with full attention.

In the past few days, I have thought about something that will make a terrible ghostly scream, and it may be the very famous "yellow skin" in the Northeast, that is, the weasel. This animal has special biological abilities that are said to be fascinating. (Fascinating: that is, the yellow skin can be attached to the human body, making people stupid and unconscious, and deranged, so as to overtake the human body.) Legend has it that the yellow-skinned man will be revenged, and will often make a fuss and torture the humans who accidentally offend it. ）

Northeast folk call it "Huang Tai Sin" or "Huang Pi Xian", and some families also worship Huang Pizi as a Baojia Immortal.

Huang Pizi is the most intelligent, and according to legend, he can speak human language and imitate human appearance after a short period of practice.

I remember when I was a child, I once heard the old man tell many stories about the yellow skin fairy showing his might, most of which were charming stories of tricking people. One of the stories is related to the language of the speakers, as if to say: In the late Qing Dynasty, the surname of a wealthy family was Huang.

Suddenly, in the middle of the night, the cooks were already resting, and suddenly they heard someone knocking on the window outside, so they had to get up and turn on the lamp. When he saw a figure in a robe outside the window, he asked, "Who is it?" What's the matter? ”

The figure outside the window replied, "It's me, your lord, I'm hungry, cook me a bowl of noodles, just put it in the kitchen, and I'll eat it in a while." ”

Although the cooks had already fallen asleep, they heard that Huang Yuanwai was hungry, so they had to get up and dress, go to the kitchen to make a bowl of eggs and tomatoes, make a bowl of braised noodles with eggs and tomatoes, put them on the stove in the kitchen, and then went back to sleep.
