The drizzle was misty, the mountain wind was cold, we stopped and stopped, and the driver woke up, and naturally we were inevitably scolded. He himself knew that he had done something wrong, so he shrugged his head and kept silent, sighing long from time to time, and mourning in silence for his car.

We walked for an unknown number of hours, until our legs were numb, we were panting, and we were exhausted. The surroundings have always been the same, but there is no way out, looking up, the cliffs of the steep cliffs are wrapped in darkness, and we have no choice but to keep going.

I looked at my watch again, and it was ten o'clock in the evening.

We walked for more than five hours.

Tofu's stomach rumbled, originally we didn't bring anything to eat, the bread we ate five hours ago, or Tofu, the foodie bought when he got into the car, two small breads, the three of us shared them, not to mention that now we are tired and tired for more than five hours.

The driver who hasn't eaten is even hungrier, and in the past few hours, I have learned some of his details. He is a native of Xiangxi, surnamed Mao, called Mao Dazhi, tofu likes to give people nicknames, has always been worried about this Mao Dazhi refused to throw money, directly called him a hairless iron rooster, referred to as: Mao Rooster.

At the moment we couldn't walk, we sat down in place, panting, but fortunately the rain was not heavy, otherwise it would have been even worse. When the hairy rooster heard the belly of the tofu, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, opened his mouth, stretched out his tongue to catch the heavy drizzle in the sky, and after a while, he smashed his mouth and stammered in a dumb voice: "Drinking water is enough, but I am hungry." When will this go...... It's a head. Let's do it, why don't we get some food first...... As the old saying goes, if the soldiers and horses are not moved, the grain, the grain, the grain ......"

Tofu answered: "Grain and grass first!" You're right, the question is where is there food here? ”

Mao Rooster because of the matter of throwing money, along the way by our snub and cynicism, this time I want to make meritorious service, immediately said: "I, I will hunt, I, our Xiangxi Han, men, are all good hands, you wait, wait for ......"

While talking, the hairy rooster asked for a flashlight, ready to go deep into the forest to find something, the three of us sat in place to rest, about half an hour later, the hairy rooster came out happily, with two struggling things in his hand, I fixed my eyes to see, it was a big rabbit all the time, and there was a small thing with a yellow hair and a big tail, I don't know what it was.

I didn't expect that the hairy rooster could really get something to eat.

At this moment, we are sheltering from the rain in a depression under a mountain cliff, and there are some wood that has not been wetted around, Gu Wenmin collected firewood, lit a fire, and acted very skillfully.

Tofu didn't recognize the yellow thing either, and asked, "What is this little thing for, nodding like this, isn't it enough for me to stuff my teeth?" "Strangely, the thing seemed to be able to understand human speech, and it actually wailed and screamed at Tofu.

Gu Wenmin observed for a while and said, "If you read it correctly, it should be a weasel, but this should still be a cub." ”

The hairy rooster carried the tail of the cub, shook it in a circle, and said: "At this time, don't pick any cubs that are not cubs, the most important thing is to fill your stomach." ”

The little weasel kept wailing and screaming, Gu Wenmin was a little unbearable, his slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "It's so small, just let it go." Mao Rooster disagreed, and said: "Flies are also meat, let, the four of us, it's hard to ...... Is it possible to eat this rabbit? ”

Tofu has always been soft-hearted, which is why I gave him this nickname, he stared at the weasel twice, and said: "Such a small thing, eat how many taels of meat you can grow, I think it's better to let it go." Then he snatched the weasel from the hairy rooster's hand and put it on the ground, and the weasel was also clever, and as soon as the tofu hand was loosened, it burrowed into the grass and disappeared with a smoke.

Mao Rooster was a little angry, I want to reason with Tofu, I have always been to help relatives and not help, although Tofu let go of our rations, but I still stand on the side of Tofu, so I said to Mao Rooster expressionlessly: "A little wolf cub, let it go, let it go, rabbit to me, I'll roast." ”

Just like Tofu said, when I don't laugh, I look very cold, very difficult to mess with, Mao Rooster dares to raise the bar with Tofu because Tofu is easy to bully, but he didn't dare to raise the bar with me, touched his nose in a sneer, and handed over the rabbit to me after a few strokes.

I used to sell barbecue, although there is no seasoning here, but just the difference in the heat, the taste of the roast is also very different, a rabbit will be roasted, yellow, a smell of meat wafts out, everyone's stomach plays a symphony of hunger, not long to eat a whole rabbit eats it all.

This rabbit was not beaten by the hairy rooster himself, in his words, it was very lucky. After walking a short distance, I saw a rabbit pressed under the stone, and two weasels, one large and one small, the big one ran away immediately when he saw people, and the small one was caught with the rabbit before he could do so.

We had eaten and drunk enough, and had more or less rested, but now it was night, and we were so sleepy that we could not go any further, so we slept all night in the hollow under the cliff. The taste of sleeping in the wild is naturally not good, and in the middle of sleep, from time to time I am awakened by various noises, or by various insects crawling on my body.

A restless night.

When we woke up the next day, we were all dressed in wolves, sitting in the recess, looking at each other.

At the moment, the hands of the watch on my wrist point to eight o'clock in the morning, but the environment around us is still as dark as splashed ink, and everyone knows that something is wrong.

Tofu swallowed his saliva and said nervously, "Could it be that the things that are closed by the ghost gate haven't left us yet?" ”

I already had another thought in my heart, and my heart said: Leave us? Perhaps, we haven't gotten out of the ghost gate at all, and we're still spinning in the same place. I am reminded of the folk commonly known as the ghost hitting the wall, which means that you are confused by a ghost and can't get out of a certain place.

However, as soon as the ghost hits the wall in the daytime, as soon as the sun shines, it will disappear.

But at this moment, it seems to be daylight, and the strange environment around us has not disappeared, what is going on?

The four of them were a little hairy in their hearts, and when they got together, they said a lot of various speculations, some said that they were ghosts, and some said that they were monsters, all of which were very nonsense. Gu Wenmin finally shook his head and said, "I can't figure out what the situation is, but it's not a way to sit here, I think it's better to go forward for a while." ”

There was no other way to do it, so the four of us continued on the road, following the winding mountain road all the way, and the surrounding area was dark and unchanging. At this moment, the rain began to fall heavily, everyone's skin was as cold as ice, the unchanged environment, the cold rain, made the atmosphere of the whole team more and more silent, at this moment, Tofu suddenly stopped, shook my arm, said; "Perverted Chen, look, there's a fire there."

I shook the water from my head and said, "Take back the word pervert." Then he looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a faint glow somewhere in the darkness, like a lantern on some kind of building.

Where there is light, there are people, everyone's spirits are lifted, Gu Wenmin showed a smile on his face, there was a bit of a strict voice before, but now he is also relaxed, clear as spring water, his dark eyes are smiling, and he said: "It's easy to do it if there is someone, let's go over and ask for directions." ”

Tofu's face was excited at first, then he looked at his surroundings, touched his head again, and muttered, "...... Damn it. ”

I asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Tofu Road; "You can't slap me when I say it."

I stared into his eyes and thought, "What is this kid going to talk about?" said on his lips: "Don't worry, I'm not a pervert, why do you slap you if you have nothing to do, you say?" ”

Tofu is very easy to flicker, so he blinked his eyes and said mysteriously: "Walking at night in the middle of the night, barren mountains and mountains, people are rare, and suddenly I saw the light...... Isn't this all a ghost story? You say? Is the light a place for people to live, or is it a ......"

As soon as he said this, Gu Wenmin's face turned pale, and the hairy rooster was scared enough. I also felt a little uncomfortable when he said this, but then I thought about it: The curse is not perverted to such a degree, how can anything unfortunate happen to us? Besides, it's not a barren mountain. There is a highway above us, and this is where modern civilization can reach, where there are so many gods and ghosts.

Thinking of this, I was about to slap him on the head, and I thought that his brain was bad enough, and if he continued to fight, he would probably be stupid. So he kicked directly on the tofu butt and scolded: "Dogs can't spit out ivory in their mouths, ghosts are also dignified, and whoever has nothing to do will always have trouble with a few of us." ”

Tofu howled, covered his buttocks and said, "You said you won't fan." ”

I said, "Did I slap you, I'm kicking you." ”

Gu Wenmin saw it in his eyes, and on his face, which was still a little worried, he couldn't help but have a helpless smile, and said, "Chen Hang, don't bully him all the time, when is this, you two can still talk about it." But I think what Xiao Dou said makes sense, let's be careful. ”

Mao Rooster is very evil, hesitant, the three of us ignored him, he was even more afraid to stay alone, and quickly caught up with the big team, the four of them in the rain of beans, dragging their tired bodies, supporting each other, towards the flickering lights in the distance.

The light was very flickering in the rain, as if separated by layers of gauze, and soon, we gradually got closer.

PS: Guess what, what are those lights?
