35. Shocking corpses
When I woke up, I felt that my surroundings were eerie and scary, and I was sitting on the ground at this time, leaning against something, and I looked behind me, and I couldn't help but gasp, because I was not somewhere else, but by Wu Xiaoquan's grave.
I was so shocked that I immediately stood up, I remember that I was in the mountain temple before I fainted, I felt that I had only fainted for a minute or two, and I unknowingly arrived at Wu Xiaoquan's grave again, and I didn't even know who the person who appeared in the mountain temple was.
In this dark night, Wu Xiaoquan's grave became even more terrifying, and I hurried away from it. I'm afraid that something will run out of Wu Xiaoquan's grave in the next moment. It was just completely quiet, the silence around me was terrifying, even the wind suddenly stopped blowing, and I stood in the open forest and felt as if something was suddenly appearing in all directions. I didn't dare to go too far, but I was afraid of the grave next to me, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
In my daze, I suddenly saw a flash of fire in front of me, and though it was fleeting, I saw it very clearly, and in such a night, any light would attract attention. When I saw the light, it immediately attracted my attention, if I didn't judge the wrong direction, the place where the fire came from should be in the depths of the forest, I didn't dare to shout at this time, so I glanced at Wu Xiaoquan's grave, and then suddenly ran into the depths of the forest, at this time only running can relieve the fear in my heart, and even feel that there is no one behind me, and stillness is the most terrible thing, because you don't know if someone will hide in the forest, or the next moment will suddenly appear behind you.
I ran so far in one breath that I even felt like I had run past the place where I had just seen the fire, and the silent fear spread in my heart after I stopped again, and I looked around in horror, and I couldn't continue to run into the deeper woods, in case there was anything in it, but it was impossible to go back and forth, and by this time there was no trace of the mountain temple, and the horror of what happened in the mountain temple, I didn't want to go back there. So in the end, I had to bite the bullet and continue to run into the forest, thinking that even if the forest is deep, there should be a head, and this is not a primeval forest, how can I run more and more into it. It doesn't make sense.
I ran down the trail until I felt I had no more strength left, gasping for air, just as I stopped. I saw that there seemed to be light coming from some of the trees next to me, and it seemed to be the light of a lamp, which was particularly conspicuous in such a dark forest, and I saw the light as if I saw hope, and I immediately walked towards the light.
The kerosene lamp alone came out, and I came to a simple house in the woods, which seemed to have been built to live in, and the kerosene lamp hung in the doorway. The door was closed, so I knocked on the door, but to no avail, I tried to push. I didn't expect the door to be tied up from the inside, I pushed it open, making a "squeak" sound, which made my heart jump with it, and I looked inside by the light of the kerosene lamp, there was a bed in it, and some simple tables and chairs, but there was nothing in it, but there was no one.
I wondered if someone had gone out, maybe it was a ranger station or something, so I went in and closed the door, but I was a little scared, so I fastened the door from the inside, and it wasn't until I was completely in the middle of the bungalow that I had a place to hide, and I felt my fear disappear a little.
I tried to touch the bed, and it was still clean, it should have been occupied, but I didn't lie down on the bed, but did it on the chair, and the simple room had no windows, only a door and an exit. So I couldn't see what was going on outside, only the light coming in through the doorway, and I just sat in my chair and looked at the light in the crack in the door, and I didn't know what I was thinking for a while.
I was stunned for a while before I came back to my senses. I thought that if my father and Mr. Zou were still in the woods, they would have been able to find this place, but why there was no trace of them until now, it seemed that something was not quite right.
As I was thinking about it, I suddenly saw the light in the crack in the door suddenly dim. It was as if someone had suddenly blocked the light, and I was startled when I saw this scene, and then I looked at the crack at the bottom of the door, and saw that it really looked like a person was standing outside the door, and I felt that he was standing against the door, so I didn't dare to come out, and my eyes stared straight at the darkened door, and even the whole person had stood up silently, after all, if I was sitting, if this was the person I saw in the mountain temple, I would still have to resist.
The man stood in front of the door for about a minute, and then I saw him suddenly leave the door, and the light came in through the crack in the door again. What's more, he had already walked away, but I didn't hear the slightest sound of footsteps walking, and I knew that it was definitely not a person who walked without a sound.
I didn't think about it anymore, because I didn't want to scare myself in such a situation, so as soon as the figure was gone, I immediately changed my position and allowed myself to stand behind the door in case the person came back again.
As I stood against the wall of the simple room, observing the light in the crack in the door, my nerves, which had just been relaxed, began to tense again, and this time I couldn't let go at all.
While I was nervously listening to the movement outside, I suddenly heard the sound of running footsteps approaching from a distance, and soon came to the door, and I could feel the speed of this man's running. Soon I heard him push the door, he seemed to be in a hurry, and his movements were also very urgent, and the door of the improvised room kept ringing as he pushed it. Then I heard him shout outside, "Is there anyone inside?" ”
This is my father's voice, I was stunned for a moment after hearing it was my father's voice, and then I asked through the simple room, "Dad, is it you?" ”
My dad was startled when he heard my voice. Then he asked suspiciously, "Wood?" How did you end up here? ”
I heard my father's voice, and I heard the sound of him running quickly, and it seemed that I had met something, so I opened the door. Then my dad came in like a loach through the crack in the open door, and I felt the rush in him, and it wasn't until he came in that he relaxed a little, and then he kept looking at me and saying, "Wood." How did you end up here? ”
So I told my dad what happened, and then my dad looked at me in surprise and said, "You saw it too?" ”
I knew that my dad was talking about the man in the mountain temple, so I asked my dad in surprise, "Did you meet that person too?" ”
My dad said, "I'm not sure if it's alone, but it's scary at night in this forest." I felt like there was more than one person here, not even a person at all, a corpse that had already been raised. ”
When my dad said this, I felt cold, so I asked my dad, "Have you met Mr. Zou?" ”
My dad shook his head and said, "I was walking with you, but as I walked, I seemed to hear a person walking behind me, so I looked back, and who knew that when I turned my head again, you would be gone, and then I couldn't find you, and I wanted to leave this forest but kept going around in it, like a ghost hitting a wall." ”
I asked my dad again, "Why did you run so fast, as if something was chasing you?" ”
My dad said, "I felt that someone was following me, although I didn't see it clearly, but I saw that he was running after me, so I kept running in the woods, until I just saw a light in the woods, and then I ran here, and I didn't expect you to be in here." ”
Saying that, my dad also observed the situation in the simple room, so he asked, "Who lives here?" ”
I said, "I don't know, it's like a ranger's makeshift home." ”
