Gu Yunzhe heard that the group of people planned to go hunting in the depths of the mountains the next day, and guessed whether it was the same place as the place he went. He craned his ears to see if those people would mention the location next, but to his disappointment, the group of people chatted afterwards with some lace news, interesting stories in the circle. Gu Yunzhe stopped eavesdropping, finished his meal attentively, asked the proprietress for a room, and planned to rest here for a night.

Although it is now the ninth winter, there is no cold wind here, perhaps deep in the mountains, and at night, a thick fog rises in the forest, making it extremely humid. Because the group of people sang and danced in the hall, the whole restaurant was still very lively even after night. It wasn't until late at night, when everyone went back to their rooms to rest, that it was completely quiet. Outside the window, the chirping of night owls and the roars of mountain beasts were heard from time to time.

Early in the morning, the group of people settled the room bill, and the friends got into their cars and set off for the mountains. Gu Yunzhe had already walked into the mountain one step ahead of them, rushing to the second destination provided by Natu.

Along the way, the light fog was filled, and the distant mountains loomed in the fog, and only many apes and tigers could be heard, and deer and birds could be heard in the distance. The deep gorge on the side of the road is also filled with fog, which reduces some of the fear of going down from the heights, and adds some mysterious feeling of seeing flowers in the fog and not knowing the geometry of the depths. On the other side of the winding road, the autumn leaves are interspersed from time to time, adding a touch of playfulness to the deep green of the mountain. After yesterday's familiarity, Gu Yunzhe's speed today is a little faster, but the mountain road is winding, three steps and a turn, five steps and a turn, no matter how superb the driving skills, he does not dare to gallop.

When the sun climbed the mountain, Gu Yunzhe saw the second destination, which was a large gentle slope, and at the end of the gentle slope was the foot of a mountain. And above it is a dense green forest, which envelops the whole mountain. Cars are no longer suitable for travel, and from here, it is necessary to walk down the gentle slope and into the forest.

Gu Yunzhe put on his backpack, held a flower stick in one hand and a firewood knife in the other, and found a particularly obscure path in the tall grass on the gentle slope, as if someone had specially opened it, and slowly walked to the edge of the forest at the foot of the mountain.

Standing on the grass and looking into the forest, it felt like it was dark. More than ten meters tall trees rise from the ground, and in the high places, the canopy is interspersed, covering the sky and the sun, forming a green canopy. At this time, the sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, like rain and arrows, shining in the forest. The mist flow in the forest, passing through the pillar of light, makes the already gray forest add a sense of mystery. The sporadic sunlight brings light to the woods and dispels the fog in the woods little by little. In some of the farther places, the view is obscured by the clumps of trees and the shrubs between the trees.

Gu Yunzhe lifted the backpack on his back, looking at the forest, he felt a little strange in his heart, but he didn't know where that feeling came from. After thinking for a long time, I had no clue, so I simply walked into the forest. It wasn't very difficult to walk at first, and in a trance you could see a trail that curved through the forest towards the mountain. However, as the weeds and leaves on the ground grew thicker, the path gradually disappeared. The light inside was also darkened by the foliage, which became denser and denser. However, in order to survive, in order to absorb as much sunlight as possible, those bushes stretched out from the cracks in the rocks and wantonly around them, occupying the limited space. And Gu Yunzhe could only use his cane to remove the obscuring branches, and at the same time cut them off with a firewood knife, and slowly climbed upward.

I don't know how far I walked, but suddenly my eyes lit up, and I saw a clearing in the middle of the woods, the area was not large, only the size of a basketball court, as if it had been trimmed, it was very smooth, there were few weeds, and there was a pile of ashes in the middle, and there was a circle of stones around the ashes, which formed a circle. Gu Yunzhe walked over and stood next to the ashes in the middle to examine it carefully for a moment. I saw that the pile of ashes was covered with a layer of soil, and the degree of bonding between this layer of soil and ashes made it seem that no one had been here for some days. He looked up at the sky, and at this time, it was already noon, the sun was just above him, and the clearing was covered with sunlight. Standing here, the strange feeling of just entering the forest resurfaced, and it became even stronger.

Gu Yunzhe frowned, carefully examining this clearing, and suddenly he stopped and looked at the surrounding woods again. There was only the sound of the mountain wind blowing through the treetops, but there were no birds, and no wild beasts were seen. Be quiet! A strange kind of silence! "There are no sounds of birds and beasts! Yes, there are no animals here. Gu Yunzhe's eyes widened and he glanced around again.

Faced with this strange phenomenon, Gu Yunzhe felt that he seemed to have come to the right place, although there was still a gap between this place and the map provided by Natu, the place showed him, but this place gave him a familiar feeling, the atmosphere here was very similar to that of the young man of Kamiya that night. Although birds and beasts do not have human brains, they have very sensitive organs that allow them to avoid danger.

Gu Yunzhe sat cross-legged on the ground directly and put his backpack beside him. Listening to the howling mountain wind, I was a little intoxicated. The consciousness was dispersed, and gradually covered the entire mountain. In the careful search, I suddenly found that on the other side of this mountain, halfway up the mountain, I found a hidden thatched house. Looks like there's something unusual in there. Retracting his consciousness, he stood up and walked in the direction of the thatched hut.

With a goal, the speed of walking naturally increases. Soon came to this thatched house, Gu Yunzhe stopped in the woods in the distance, and his consciousness spread out again, reaching into the thatched house.

The thatched hut was built on a jutting rock, and there were no people in it, except for a bamboo bed, a few bamboo chairs, and two wooden tables. On a wooden table is a teapot and several bamboo cups. Leaning against one wall is a bamboo rack with some cobblestone jars with lids. Other than that, there is nothing else. And there is a small field outside the thatched house. Beyond the site, there is a hillside. There is a path next to the thatched hut that leads down to a winding mountain road.

After observing for a long time, Gu Yunzhe walked out from behind the big tree and slowly walked into the thatched house. The floor of this thatched hut was covered with dust, and it was probably a long time since anyone had visited. He picked up a stone jar from the shelf, and held it in his hand with a bit of weight. When I opened the box, there was nothing in it, it was empty. I put this stone jar back and picked up another one, and there was still nothing. He looked at all the stone jars, and they were all empty. There was only some green residue in the stone jar, which he dipped his fingers in, put it between his nose and smelled it, and there was a fishy smell. Gu Yunzhe frowned and put the jar back again.

When I turned around, I happened to see a basket under the bamboo bed, which was woven with bamboo strips, as if there was something in it. Gu Yunzhe leaned over and pulled out the bamboo strips, and when the bamboo strips were completely taken out, they were covered with a gray cloth. Lifting the gray cloth, he was shocked by what he saw. The half-dusted eyeballs were abruptly placed at their feet. I can't tell the difference between left and right, but in terms of numbers, there are hundreds.

However, what is even more shocking is that these eyeballs are all with their pupils facing upwards, neatly arranged in a circle, arranged in a trapezoidal shape, and there are as many as four layers.

Gu Yunzhe looked at these eyeballs, like human eyeballs. Although I have not been exposed to anatomy, I can know that birds are not so small, and beasts are of different sizes, unless only one type of animal is killed. But looking at this number, it is equivalent to a hundred and ten beasts of the same age. He crouched beside the basket and looked at the pile of eyeballs like hundreds of eyes staring at him, very uncomfortable. Re-cover the grey cloth and push the basket back under the bed.

When he thought of the pile of eyeballs, he suddenly felt depressed, he was reluctant to stay in the hut, and walked to the edge of the stone platform outside, and a few questions lingered in his heart, are those human eyeballs? Who would keep these eyeballs as souvenirs? What's even more terrifying is that the eyeballs are neatly arranged in rows? Also, what are these eyeballs used for? These questions swirled back and forth in Gu Yunzhe's brain, but he couldn't find a single clue.

Looking up at the sky again, the day in the mountains is very short, it is already two o'clock in the afternoon, and it is estimated that in more than an hour, the sun will be blocked by the mountains. This cottage is a great place to spend the night, but it is always uncomfortable to think about those eyeballs under the bed. In addition, there are no birds and beasts shuttling through the whole mountain, which adds a bit of weirdness.

Gu Yunzhe pondered for a moment, turned around and walked along the same road, fortunately he found the location of the car with his meditation sense, and walked towards the place where the car was parked. Just walking in the mountains, it is very unlikely that you will return from the original road.

During the tossing and turning, I walked to the top of the mountain, and at this time the sunlight was completely blocked by the mountain, and the light in the forest quickly dimmed. Just when it was completely dark, Gu Yunzhe took out a flashlight from his bag, ready to use it to find the way down the mountain. Suddenly, a short flute sounded from the woods, followed by a low roar, like a wild beast.

Gu Yunzhe turned off the flashlight in his hand and squatted down, listening carefully to the direction from which the voice came. Soon, there was a short flute sound, followed by a roar. He took the direction and tiptoed as easily as he could, towards the source of the sound. Fortunately, the mountain wind howled at night, which covered up Gu Yunzhe's voice very well.

Soon, he saw a clearing with several wooden stakes in the middle of the clearing, some torches around it, and two people. One of them was tall and strong, like a giant, and on such a cold night, he was wearing only a set of shorts and shorts, with a high nose bridge, high cheekbones, high eyebrows, wide mouth and thick lips, and a bald head without hair, but his face was pale and pale, and he stood there practicing different moves. It's just that the limbs are slightly stiff, like a puppet, and the punches and kicks are like machines, although the speed is extremely fast, but it can't make all the movements coherent and do it in one go. The other was a woman, standing not far away. Look at the age, not very big. A dreadlock is tied behind his head, a short down jacket on his upper body, a pair of cargo pants with many pockets on his lower body, and a pair of high-top leather shoes on his feet. The handsome and delicate face, fair and clean, at this time holds a short flute in his hand and blows it on his mouth. With a long or short, high or low sound, it blows out of the short flute. In the center of the clearing, the tall strong man made a series of corresponding chopping and pushing movements.

Gu Yunzhe felt that this big man was very similar to the European Feixiong from the Outer Eight Gates, but Feixiong was much more flexible than this big man, and the big man in front of him looked like a stiff corpse no matter how he looked at it. However, since there can be people similar to Feixiong here, it is estimated that there will be some relationship with the Outer Eight Gates. He restrained his breath and stood behind the tree, quietly observing the movements of the two men in the clearing. The intention is to follow the two and find their lair.

It's just that it backfired, and after a while, the big man in the field moved faster and faster as the sound of the woman's flute accelerated. Suddenly, the big man stopped his movements, and let the woman blow the short flute loudly, but he was unmoved. The woman stepped forward to find out what the problem was, and suddenly the big man's big hand reached out like lightning and grabbed the woman's neck. The woman seemed to be defensive, tilted her head back, twisted her waist, and flashed to the side. Dahan missed the blow and stepped forward again, using the grappling techniques he had just practiced, one after another.

The woman dodged left and right, moving and flipping, and was also extremely flexible. Although several heavy blows seemed to hit the vital place of the big man, it did not have any effect.

Although Gu Yunzhe saw this scene, he did not want to come forward to save him. It's not that he doesn't want to save it, in his opinion, that woman can train this big man in this wilderness, and she will definitely be on guard, and she will definitely not have these means.

Sure enough, the woman in the field, after dodging for a while, put away the short flute in her hand and took out a short stick from her waist, like a baseball bat, one big and the other small, which is slightly shorter. I saw a woman, holding a short stick in one hand, biting her finger with the other, and quickly drew a talisman on the short stick. Immediately, the iron rod seemed to be electrified, and a dark pattern appeared on it.

The big man rushed up again, and the woman jumped up, dodged the big man's fists, jumped on top of the big man's head, and slammed the back of the big man's head with an iron rod. Maybe the back of the head is where the big man's cover door is, and the big man who was hit immediately took two steps forward crookedly as if he was drunk, and collapsed to the ground.

The woman panted and stood there frowning, looking at the big man who had collapsed to the ground. Suddenly, there was the sound of clapping in the woods.
