Chapter 31: Lost
I knew something was wrong, and asked her, "We are sitting in the same car, we are companions, don't hold back anything, what happened just now?" Why are you making me get down on my stomach? Thinking of the touch and fragrance before, my heart softened a little, I originally had a heart for Gu Wenmin, but I couldn't help but put it down at this time, and seeing that her expression was not as calm as before, I slowed down my voice and said, "What's going on?" ”
Probably sensing my kindness, Gu Wenmin glanced at me, the corners of his lips relaxed slightly, and he lowered his voice and said, "Just now, I saw a face behind the car window, and suddenly a face came over, and it ...... It's like a giant monkey face, so ......"
Face? Tofu and I glanced at each other, and Tofu looked behind him and said in surprise, "Are you dazzled?" Nothing? ”
When the driver heard this, he became nervous and said; "There are indeed a lot of monkeys in this area, and according to legend, there are mandrills, no, we shouldn't be targeted by mandrills, this thing is going to eat people!" As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden bang on the roof of our car, as if someone was hitting it with a fist, and the four people in the car were stunned for a moment.
Could it be that my luck that has fallen to the extreme has come out again?
Discovered and named in 1758, the mandrill was known as a mountain ghost before that, with a large and long head, a somewhat fearful and docile personality, and some very misogynistic to humans.
I once saw one at the zoo, but it was very small.
Did we run into a wild one this time?
The driver looked nervously at the roof of the car, swallowed his saliva, and cursed and said, "Damn, how did you get bad luck today, this money is too hard to earn." "At this time, I was angry and nervous, but I didn't stutter.
Immediately, the driver pulled out the telescopic iron rod for self-defense from under the cushion, and some drivers would stuff some self-defense things under the cushion in order to prevent someone from taking the car to rob, and then he gestured to me and Tofu, signaling us two big men not to be idle, get out of the car to help, see if it is a mandrill, and quickly get it away.
Immediately, we each took our weapons, which were nothing more than some iron tools used to repair the car, some of which were heavy, although they did not have a sharp edge, but if they were smashed down, they would definitely bloom in their heads.
The three of them summed up, immediately got out of the car as fast as possible, and quickly turned their eyes to the roof of the car and the surroundings, who knew that the roof of the car was indeed empty, and the thing that smashed the roof of our car just now had gone somewhere?
The driver was familiar with these situations, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It should have run, after all, we were in the car just now, and it couldn't deal with the car, so I ......" Before the words were spoken, on a sunny day, a thunder suddenly sounded, and the hearts of the people were terrified, and the three of us almost trembled.
The sound of this explosion was too loud, and it came suddenly, which scared the three of us, including Gu Meinu in the car, and when I looked up, it was still sunny and white, but a large dark cloud floated from nowhere, covering the sky.
This is originally a mountain cliff, dense forests, the sun is in the east, blocked by the mountain, the light is not strong, at this moment is covered by inky dark clouds, the time is like entering the night, the surroundings are dark and gloomy, and then, there are a few thunderstorms in the clouds, the lightning tears a few times, and the big rain will fall with thunderbolts.
Only then did I remember that the four of us hadn't opened the scope of the ghost gate yet.
And now, it's really raining.
The tofu monster screamed and hid in the car first. I glanced at the driver in the rain, and I noticed that the driver's lips were a little trembling, obviously, the previous rumors about the ghost gate were not groundless, so what now?
Next, will there really be something evil?
The two of us looked at each other and quickly hid in the car, but fortunately, the rain on our bodies dried up soon after the rain, and I didn't feel cold in summer, but the air seemed to be more stuffy.
Gu Wenmin was also a little nervous, and said, "What now?" ”
The driver couldn't make up his mind, he was a local, and he was even more convinced of these superstitions, and at this moment they were all fulfilled one by one, and it was estimated that his head had become paste. Not to mention tofu, when it's okay, bragging can blow the sky, and when something happens, the first one is scared, and at the moment he is dragging my arm, and he doesn't know what to say in his mouth, listen carefully, his grandmother's, great compassion curse!
I interrupted Tofu's chatter and scolded, "Isn't it raining, we're not dead yet, what kind of great compassion mantra are you chanting in advance!" Then he said to the driver: "What are you still doing in a daze, continue to drive." ”
The other three looked at me stunned, presumably infected by my composure, and the driver began to continue driving, but at a much slower pace. In fact, this kind of strange thing, I said in my heart that I don't play the drums, it's fake, but if four people are flustered together, it's even worse.
Instead of making a mess, it's better to calm down.
The car continued to drive, but the atmosphere inside the car was more silent, and the rain outside did not abate. I looked at my watch, it was mid-noon, but we were on a winding road, it was gloomy and dark, and as time went by, the environment was getting darker and darker, and the visibility around us was very low due to the heavy rain.
The driver had to turn on the headlights, and the raindrops in front of the headlights were illuminated golden yellow, as if it was raining gold.
After driving for about two hours, the driver suddenly stopped the car, and his hand holding the steering wheel trembled a little. Immediately after, he turned his head, hissed in a hoarse voice, and stammered: "To Fengtou Village, it takes five hours to drive, what time is it?" ”
I looked at the time again, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and we set off at eight o'clock in the morning, calculated that the time had passed seven hours, and our car was still on the winding mountain road, with a cliff in the dark on one side, a cliff on the other, as black as night, and the surrounding trees could not be seen clearly.
I couldn't help but close my eyes, suppressed the desire to scold my mother and God in my heart, was silent for a moment, opened my eyes again, and said lightly: "How do you drive?" Where are we now? ”
Cold sweat oozed from the driver's forehead, and said: "This place is so remote, there is only one highway, even if you close your eyes, you won't drive the wrong way, here, I still don't know it." ”
Gu Wenmin pursed his lips, with a hint of apology on his face, and said, "It's all my fault." ”
Tofu grabbed his hair and said, "I don't blame you, blame that mandrill, why did you say that it was okay to climb on our car, if I want to have a chance to catch it, I have to peel off its skin." ”
It was still raining heavily, so I took out a cigarette and took a few puffs, and said, "Come on, don't be foolish, you don't even dare to kill a fish, are you fucking embarrassed to say peeling?" After a pause, I knew that something must be wrong, and staying in the car was not the way to go, so after smoking a cigarette, I motioned for Tofu to get out of the car with me, and went out to check if there were any road signs.
Did we go down the wrong path, or did we really encounter something strange.
I've heard a lot of ghost stories before, and the entertainment life at that time was very monotonous, and most of the time was spent making money, but I didn't make much money. I can't afford to soak in girls, I can't afford to go to a bar, come on, a group of people are lying together and talking nonsense, what ghost stories, meat jokes, social gossip, I listened to it all night.
I have heard a story about some people who were stabbed to death on the wild road, and when they met a driver who had no conscience, they threw their bodies away to evade responsibility. The corpse rotted in the weeds, no one restrained it, the ghost lingered, and the resentment was great, and over time, it changed into a road ghost.
If you drive and suddenly find yourself driving into a strange place, and you can't drive out, it means that you are likely to be targeted by road ghosts.
What to do at this time?
To give money.
Renminbi is fine, of course, the best is paper money.
As much as you have on your body, you have to throw as much as you want to go to the west, and the road ghost will naturally let you go. If you encounter those who pick the door, you are reluctant to throw money, or scatter less, then it will be bad luck.
I got out of the car with tofu in the rain and looked at the surroundings with a flashlight, there were no road signs or other references, and the environment around the winding mountain road was similar, and we couldn't see any clues.
But one thing is certain, there is indeed only one way.
Because this is a mountainous area, the financial department above will not be so generous, allocating funds to repair several roads at the same time.
During this inspection, I and the tofu were drenched in a cold heart, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, the rain seemed to carry some kind of yin qi, dripping on the body was extremely cold.
Finally, I knocked on the car door, Gu Wenmin and the driver poked their heads out, I said my thoughts, thinking that it was likely to be a ghost now, so it was better to try it according to the folk method, and then make plans if it didn't work.
Gu Da Meinu did not object, and immediately took out all the cash on her body and jumped out of the car.
