Chapter 148: Encountering the Dead
"Why?" I asked, confused.
Zhou Qian didn't say much, and walked towards the fork in the road on the right first. Mu Ling and I hurriedly followed, and after walking for more than ten minutes, we found familiar tire marks on the mountain road.
"There were no traces of tires passing on those three forks, but I looked at them and there were differences in the three roads." After finding the tire mark, Zhou Qian's expression relaxed a little, and then he explained to us, "The mountain road on the left is relatively narrow, only enough for the van to barely pass, and the mountain road is lined with verdant and low weeds, if the van drives to the left road, it is impossible not to press the weeds on the side of the road, so the fork on the left is excluded." The mountain road in the middle is relatively large, but the soil on the ground is relatively soft, and the van will definitely leave traces when it passes, so it is excluded, so only the mountain road on the right remains, the mountain road is wide, and the soil on the ground is also hard, so there are no traces of tires. ”
After listening to Zhou Qian's explanation, we suddenly realized that this reasoning is actually very simple, it can be regarded as a reverse elimination method, but Zhou Qian's ability to find this in such a short period of time has to make me admire.
The mountain road on the right is very long, and there is no fork in the road, so we don't have to worry about the traces on the ground, just chase it until it is dark.
The mountain road goes straight up, and as the terrain rises, the scenery on both sides of the mountain road also changes, and the view becomes wider. This made me, who had been locked in the tomb for a long time, feel a sense of comfort that I had not felt for a long time
Because of what happened in the tomb, Mu Ling's attitude towards me was very different after she came out, and I could clearly feel the affection in her eyes when she looked at me. Because I was on the verge of death in the tomb, I didn't think much about it, and responded positively to Mu Ling's confession.
At this time, after leaving the tomb and regaining my freedom, I was no longer threatened with death, and Mu Ling's mind did not change, but I felt a little uneasy.
Mu Ling is a beautiful girl, although she usually has a little cold temper, but after going through so many hardships with her, her attitude towards me is no longer what it used to be, to say that I am not moved at all, this is self-deception.
It's just that...... I don't have a few days to live, so naturally it is impossible to harm Mu Ling, so I pretended not to see her affectionate eyes.
The trail is long, and I don't know what the end of this tracking is?
Climbing the mountain is tiring, and since our bodies are not back to their normal state, we have to stop and rest for a while and eat something every hour or so.
There were a lot of snacks to eat, and I couldn't finish them for a while, but the drinking water I brought was quickly drunk, but there were many mountain springs and streams in the mountains, and we didn't worry about dying of thirst because of this.
Zhou Qian has always frowned and doesn't talk much, and occasionally looks up at the depths of the mountains, all of which look extremely worried. At this time, while standing aside and eating, he suddenly said, "Someone is coming." ”
I also heard footsteps, tapping, coming from above the trail, followed by a swaying figure walking slowly towards us from the trail.
I felt something strange because the way the figure walked gave me a feeling of great familiarity.
"The man...... It looks somewhat familiar. Mu Ling's eyes also widened, staring at the person who came and said, "It's like Yang Xun." ”
I also feel a little similar to Yang Xun, and when the visitor gets closer, I slowly see his appearance, and it is really Yang Xun
Yang Xun's face was stained with a lot of black and yellow soil, and he looked a little embarrassed, carrying a dirty backpack on his back, and his clothes had made several cuts, looking like a refugee who had just returned from the Middle East.
It's just that the look of a smile that always hangs on his face is still the same, so I recognized him at once.
He also saw the three of us in the middle of the road, with a look of surprise and joy on his face, and before he could walk in front of us, he shouted loudly: "Chen Shen Muling, why are you here?" Did you come to me? ”
Mu Ling came to Beijing, originally to find the missing Yang Xun, but I was tired of the bus that led to death, after experiencing so much, it was at this unexpected moment that I saw Yang Xun, who had been missing for a long time
I stepped forward and hugged Yang Xun, who looked at us in surprise and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
I smiled wryly: "It's really hard to say about this question......"
I came to Tianshou Mountain to help Xiaobai retrieve his memory, Zhou Qian came to travel, and Mu Ling came to find Yang Xun, but we are here now to track down the murderer, to rescue the girl, and find out the truth.
The causes and consequences of this series of events, aren't they hard to explain?
Mu Ling asked, "Yang Xun, where have you been these days?" Why can't I get in touch for so many days? The team leader was worried that something had happened to you, so he sent me over to take a look. ”
It seems that Mu Ling still remembers her original mission to come to Tianshou Mountain.
This time it was Yang Xun's turn to smile bitterly, he reached out and touched his face, sighed and said, "I can't say a word......"
Zhou Qian suddenly said, "Are you coming down from the mountain?" Ever seen a van? ”
"Van?" Yang Xun glanced at Zhou Qian, "Are you?" ”
I introduced the two of them to each other, Yang Xun nodded, and said, "I just escaped from a van. ”
My heart was shocked, and I thought to myself, could it be that Yang Xun was also kidnapped by that murderer? At this time, I didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the van?" ”
"In the mountains." Yang Xun pointed in a certain direction, "What are you looking for a van for?" Did you find out that I had been kidnapped, so you came and rescued me? ”
"You've been kidnapped?" Mu Ling asked, "What's going on, who is the person who kidnapped you?" ”
"My kidnappers...... I only know that his name is Wang Fatzi. ”
"Wang Fatty?" I felt familiar, as if I had heard it somewhere, "A tomb robber?" ”
Yang Xun looked at me in surprise and said, "Do you know Wang Fatzi?" ”
Mu Ling also glanced at me curiously, I thought that the night I met the bald head and the thin man, I heard the name Wang Fatzi in their mouths, and then I heard Yang Xun mention it, and I suddenly remembered.
"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." I explained briefly, and a huge mystery arose in my heart, Yang Xun was kidnapped by Wang Fatzi, could it be that the person who plotted against us was also Wang Fatty? Mu Ling and I are locked up in the underground tomb, Wang Fatzi is a tomb robber, it is normal and reasonable to know the existence of the underground tomb, but why does he, a tomb robber, plot against us and kidnap so many people?
It's good for tomb robbers to rob tombs, why do they want to harm people?
"Yang Xun, you said that you escaped from Wang Fatzi's hands, can you tell me what's going on?" Mu Ling gritted her teeth and said, it seems that she also suspects that Wang Fatzi is the murderer who plots against us, so she is a little excited.
"That's a bit of a long story......," Yang Xun sighed again, "This has to start with my coming to Beijing to investigate the haunted incident......
"Let's talk as we go." Zhou Qian interrupted Yang Xun's words and pointed in the direction that Yang Xun had pointed out just now, "Let's go to that bus."
Yang Xun's face was a little shocked: "I just escaped, do you want me to go back?" …… There are several people under Wang Fatzi......"
I know that Zhou Qian is worried about the girl's urgency, and at this time, with the clues of the van, where will I have the patience to stand in place and listen to Yang Xun tell the long story?
"Yang Xun, when you were kidnapped by Wang Fatzi, did you see other people who were kidnapped?" I asked him.
"No, I'm the only one." Yang Xun shook his head and said, "Has anyone else been kidnapped?" Look at the way you look, as if you're looking for something, or someone? ”
"I can't make it clear in a few words, let's talk as we go." I grabbed Yang Xun's arm and pulled him towards the mountain.
Although Yang Xun said that he had not seen the other kidnapped people, but thinking of the people in one of our buses were all detained, Yang Xun's words could not clear the suspicion of Wang Fatzi's crime, and he still had to go up the mountain to investigate.
Yang Xun still shouted that Wang Fatzi was dangerous, but he took us to the mountain under his feet.
On the way up the mountain, I told Yang Xun about what happened to me and Mu Ling, and the cannibalistic and cannibalistic evil things in the tomb were nightmares that I didn't want to mention, so I just brought it briefly, and Yang Xun was still shocked when I heard it.
