I asked, "Who are the people who have returned to the village?" Still in the village? ”

Agui shook his head: "No, I went back to the city on the day of the wildfire, boss, are you suspicious of those people?" "I saw Agui's nervous expression, obviously he was already scared, and he didn't want anything to happen in the village. I thought about it and shook my head at him and said, "No, I have to think about it." ”

That night, I rested at Agui's house, lived in the fat man's room, rummaged through the whole room, and found nothing suspicious, at the head of the bed, I found the fat man's bag, which contained ID cards, two bank cards and a few red tickets, obviously, the fat man left in a hurry, or, he was about to go to the place where these things were not needed.

After thinking about it for a long time, I thought that I still had to go into the mountain to take a look, the mountain fire had almost been extinguished, and as soon as the fire brigade left, I would go into the mountain. After staying at Agui's house for two days, the fire brigade was withdrawn, and that afternoon, I packed up my things and went into the mountain, this time alone, with no one to accompany me.

Most of the trees along the way were blackened, and the mountains were bare, and there was no trace of them along the way, and after two days, I reached the lake. After a fire, the lake was full of scorched black tree trunks, and the water level had sunk down, and no trace could be found. I want to see people in life, I want to see corpses in death, and now I can't even find a single hair, did the fat man disappear inexplicably after entering the mountain?

I suddenly thought of a possibility...... Will he go to Zhangjia Gulou again?

This thought made my heart skip a beat, do you want to go into the ancient building again? But I don't have any equipment with me now, doesn't going in mean to find death? But if the fat man really goes in alone, then I'm afraid there will be more than one luck, can I leave it alone?

But at the moment, there is no evidence that the fat man entered the ancient building, everything is just my guess, naturally I can't rush in, and then, I searched along the road into the Zhangjia ancient building, but I didn't expect to find something in the stone pile by the lake before I took a few steps.

The fat man's clamshell Nokia was embedded in the stone cracks, and the screen was black, so I tried to turn it on, and it worked. After the phone lit up, I saw the message given to me by the fat man in the text message, and then I looked through some phone files, and a photo suddenly popped up.

The pixel of this mobile phone is not high, the fat man's requirements for the mobile phone are to be resistant to falls and have a good signal, in his words, no matter how good the mobile phone is in the bucket, it is useless to have a signal, and it will be broken when it falls, I am afraid that even the person who collects the corpse will not be able to contact.

The photo was taken at Agui's house, it was a selfie, the fat man was sitting on a stool, staring at the mobile phone camera with an expressionless face, the lights in the room were dim, the background was a wooden wall, the window on the wall was open, and it was pitch black behind. Obviously, this photo was taken at night, but unfortunately, although the fat man's mobile phone is resistant to falls, it is still old technology, and there is no photo time display.

This photo is more blurry, and coupled with the small screen of the phone, it is more difficult to distinguish, but the discovery of the phone here proves that the fat man has indeed been to this place. What is he doing here? It can't be that he misses the zongzi in Zhangjiagulou, if he really goes to Zhangjiagulou again, then what is the reason?

Thinking that the fat man may have entered the building, my nerves instantly tensed, the scene of Pan Zi's temporary front came to mind, a cold feeling rose from the soles of my feet, and I calmed down, I followed the route into the Zhangjia Ancient Building, this road was full of scorched trees, it was pitch black, and the air exuded the smell of burnt wood, like ghosts with teeth and claws, walking in it, as if these trees would turn into monsters and rush up in the next moment.

The further I went, the more frightened I became, thinking that in this place, there were always a few people around, but now, in this reckless mountain forest, I was the only living person.

It was not yet night, but the sun was covered by thick clouds, and there was no sunlight in the forest, and the scorched trees were all around, making it even more gloomy. The more I walked, the more I felt a cold sweat, and I couldn't help but spit on myself in my heart, you can't live without the stuffy oil bottle and the fat man, it's a. Thinking about it, I straightened my back, and although I didn't have a firearm with me, I did have a short knife with me, so I held it in my hand to give myself courage.

After walking for about half an hour, the road ahead suddenly broke off, and at this time it was close to the corner between the two mountains, and only a few meters wide gully could be passed, but after a mountain fire, all the thick trees on the two mountains rolled into the ravine, and piled up a few meters of charcoal pile.

These charcoal was not burned through the fire, the outside of a layer of black slag on the smear, but inside is a sturdy tree hole, because it is a natural fall, the yard is horizontal and vertical, I put down the backpack and kicked more than ten feet, tired and sweaty, the pile of scorched trunks only slightly moved the posture, the road is still blocked to death, in the end, I can only climb over, from head to toe rubbing the pitch black, who knows that once I go up, almost scared me down.

Dozens of green lights suddenly lit up from the darkness, faintly flashing with a strange cold glow, and disappeared in a flash. At a glance, the entire gorge was sealed with scorched wood, and more than a dozen pitch-black things curled up between the gaps in the wood, and suddenly it seemed that it had become one with the surrounding scorched wood.

It was only after the ten or so points of green light were lit up that I recognized them as more than a dozen lynxes, which were obviously unclear from the scourge of the wildfire, and they were all brown spots filled with burned essence, revealing the rough skin inside, and there was a faint smell of burnt meat in the air.

In an instant, my legs were soft, I subconsciously grabbed the machete in my hand, glanced at it, and couldn't help but scold my mother, I didn't expect to enter the mountain again when I came, and I didn't prepare any equipment, so I asked Agui for a firewood knife when I entered the mountain, and I didn't use it along the way, and now I look at it, even the knife edge is curled, fuck, this knife can't even kill the fish, at best it can smash the fish out.

There was a sudden grinding sound in my ears, and the dozen or so burned-out lynx instantly stood up from the cracks in the wood, and all the green light instantly focused on me.

I was standing on a four-meter-high wooden pile at the moment, hanging in the air behind me, I was frightened to take a step back, and suddenly I fell, and the whole person was stunned, my hands and feet were fluttering on the ground, struggling to get up, I didn't care about the stuffy pain in my chest, I grabbed the burden next to me and started running, at the same time, there was a sharp wind behind me, along with a low howl that seemed like a wolf but not a wolf.

Lynx has always relied on sneak hunting, this time the mountain fire burned away a large number of animals, these more than ten were obviously hungry ruthlessly, gave up the habit of sneak attack, directly chased up, generally speaking, after the mountain fire, the animals in the mountain will carry out large-scale migration, until the mountain regrows trees will not come back, these more than a dozen lynx would rather be burned out of their hair than leave, but ran to the nearest ravine to the lake, apparently to avoid the mountain fire, as expected, it is estimated that I have been hungry for three days and three nights, I fucking delivered it to someone's door.

I didn't run a few steps, I felt a gust of fishy wind behind me, I still have practiced in the past few years, I subconsciously squatted, and then rolled on the spot and rolled out, just raised my head, a black claw danced over, I was shocked to retreat, or hit, a hot pain on my face, full of bloody smell.

Damn, fortunately I didn't get my eyes, and I'm disfigured.

Immediately after, a black mass of stuff was laid out, and at this time I fell to the ground, and the only weapon was the bladed knife, and I could only instinctively swing the iron knife and smash it, which happened to hit the thing's eye, and a spicy hot liquid sprayed my face, and a wail instantly sounded in my ears.

Hurriedly got up from the ground, before I saw the situation, two more pounced, at that moment, I felt that I was dead this time, a person facing more than a dozen lynxes, this time there was no stuffy oil bottle of vajra fingers, no fat submachine gun, I am innocent at the moment is an ordinary person, ordinary can no longer be ordinary, a despair rose in my heart, but the body reacted one step ahead of me, several years of exercise, avoiding danger almost became an instinct, I subconsciously rolled again, this time, I rolled to the edge of the lake.

After a pounce failed, more than a dozen lynx formed an encirclement and gradually approached, the woodcutter in my hand had been thrown out, and the momentary respite made people's will to survive burst out, I stared at the lynx approaching step by step, while rummaging through the backpack, money, cigarettes, beef jerky...... That's right, beef jerky.

I've never found myself so easy to open the bag, almost a second to tear open the compressed beef bag, take out the sauce beef inside and throw it into the distance, Wang Lao Wu's charming little brother can't resist, he has this in his backpack every time he is upside down, I don't believe you brutes are not moved.
