Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Strange Howl
When everyone heard this, they couldn't laugh.
If what Chen Degui said is true, whether it is abnormal or not, it is not a good thing.
Song Shaofeng stood up, glanced at Zhang Yuan, and walked out of the small courtyard to make a call.
Zhang Yuan continued to pull the old man to chat.
However, there were no more useful clues to talk about, Chen Degui said that he just ran away and didn't see a few eyes.
It's just that he repeatedly emphasized that several "wild men" moved fast and strongly, and when he said these words, Chen Degui still seemed a little apprehensive.
Song Shaofeng came back after a while, nodding at a few people.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan divided five by two, and coaxed Chen Degui to smile, smoked a cigarette, and went back to the house to sleep.
Zhao Xuan gave Zhang Yuan a thumbs up.
Zhang Yuan has nothing to say, although it has always been Chen Degui who speaks, but the dominance of this conversation is in Zhang Yuan's hands.
Seeing that the old man had walked away, Song Shaofeng spoke: "I asked the people at the police station, and it basically matches Chen Degui's description, and it doesn't seem to be fake." ”
Zhang Yuan said proudly: "It's definitely not fake, where can anyone fool the master." ”
"Then it's troublesome." Song Shaofeng thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about the situation tomorrow." ”
"If Ferdinand's message to us is about these so-called 'wild men', then how did he know?" Zhao Xuan's focus is still on Ferdinand, after all, he brought back the news.
"Who knows." Zhang Yuan shrugged: "If you don't make it, he made it." ”
"Let's all rest. It is also necessary to analyze the situation from the scene. Song Shaofeng stopped the conversation.
Chen Degui's house has only two bedrooms, Chen Degui lives in one by himself, Lin Ling in the other, and the three men have to sleep in the hall.
It was another night dominated by Zhang Yuan's snoring.
Early the next morning, several people asked Chen Degui for directions, and then drove out of the village and went up the mountain.
Song Shaofeng drove the car along the village road for a kilometer or two, drove off the road, found an inconspicuous mountain pass, and parked the car.
The van is not afraid of being lost, and the weapons and equipment of this car are not easy to take in front of other people.
Zhang Yuan put on body armor, took the sword out of the box, shook his hand, and pulled a sword flower. sighed: "It's still a sword." ”
The action is full of master style, but this is wearing body armor and dancing with a sword, full of a sense of disobedience.
"If you have the ability, don't wear body armor." Zhao Xuan said disdainfully: "It's still customized, how much taxpayer resources are wasted?" ”
"Why don't you wear it? When I'm stupid? Zhang Yuan sneered: "Seven steps away, the gun is fast ......"
"Accurate and fast in seven steps?" Zhao Xuan hurriedly replied: "Don't play the old terrier." ”
A few people didn't take much equipment, Lin Ling took a spear, Song Shaofeng and Zhao Xuan each had a pistol, and they didn't have many bullets.
It's just that he learned the lesson of the last time, and one of them brought a grenade.
The group entered the mountain like this.
After walking for more than ten minutes, he came to the place where Chen Degui threw his cattle.
The mountain roads in this area are obviously often walked by the villagers, and they are not difficult to walk, and many places have already stepped on the paths.
"It's around here, let's look for it." Song Shaofeng looked at his phone, compared it with his surroundings, and said.
It is surrounded by a birch forest, which is at the turn of spring and summer, and the surrounding area is lush and green, and many of the plants and trees on the ground are half a person high.
The view is good, but it's much harder to find clues.
"Separate, now let's look around." Song Shaofeng put away his mobile phone, looked for a random direction, and looked around to walk towards the depths of the woods.
Zhao Xuan, too, began to search around.
It hasn't rained for the past few days, and after three or four days, there should still be some traces.
Walking further in, the vegetation becomes denser and denser, and it is often necessary to peel off the vegetation before you can continue to walk forward.
As before, several people searched and reported their news to each other through the intercom.
After searching for more than half an hour, I didn't find any useful clues.
Seeing that nothing was found at the scene of the incident, Song Shaofeng gave the order to gather.
Chen Degui said before that the "wild man" went to the northeast after catching the cattle, and Song Shaofeng was going to let everyone gather and go to the northeast for a while to see the situation.
Zhao Xuan listened to Song Shaofeng's words, turned his head and walked back, but vaguely heard a roar in the distance.
Zhao Xuan stopped, turned his head and looked in the direction where the sound came from, looking through the dense forest, but he didn't find anything.
Zhao Xuan couldn't help asking, "Did you hear it?" ”
"Hear what?"
"Nope."
"Zhao Xuan, you're hallucinating, aren't you? What's the sound. ”
Several people said they didn't hear it.
Zhao Xuan also thought that he had misheard, shook his head, turned around and continued to walk forward, but he hadn't taken a few steps before he heard a roar again.
This time, Zhao Xuan was sure that he didn't hear it wrong, and said in the intercom: "Again, absolutely not wrong, there was a roar." ”
"Zhao Xuan, you stop where you are, don't move, turn on the location of your phone, and we'll look for you!" Song Shaofeng decisively changed the order.
Zhao Xuan opened the location in the mobile phone according to his words.
After this modification, the new mobile phone has added a lot of functions that are only available to satellite phones, which is a little more expensive, but it is worth the money.
Zhao Xuan stood in place, observing his surroundings while pricking up his ears to pay attention to the sounds in the distance.
The roar was still coming intermittently. But the distance should be far away, and it doesn't really sound real. But it doesn't sound like an animal howling, it's a human roar when it's angry.
While Zhao Xuan was intermittently listening to the roar in the distance, several other people had already walked next to Zhao Xuan.
"Anything else?" As soon as Zhang Yuan walked to Zhao Xuan's side, he asked urgently, "Why didn't I hear it?" ”
Zhao Xuan pointed to his ear, put his finger to his mouth again, and made a silent gesture to Zhang Yuan.
Song Shaofeng grabbed Zhang Yuan, who was about to say something more, and said, "Which direction?" Let's move forward first. ”
Zhao Xuan pointed in a direction, Lin Ling glanced down at the compass hanging on his waist, and said, "30 degrees north-east." ”
This direction is basically the direction in which several "savages" described by Chen Degui departed.
"Let's go. Zhao Xuan showed the way. Song Shaofeng said a word, and then took the lead and walked in the direction of Zhao Xuan's finger.
The sound pointed to the northeast, but a few people were traveling through the mountains, and it was obviously impossible to walk in a straight line.
I had been walking for almost two hours, and I had walked at least eight or nine kilometers in a straight line, and the roar kept coming intermittently, but it never stopped.
As the distance got closer, the roar grew louder and louder. But the strange thing is that except for Zhao Xuan, no one else has heard it.
After walking for a few more minutes, Zhao Xuan and the others walked to the foot of a mountain peak, and the voice in Zhao Xuan's ears gradually changed from facing forward to facing upward.
Zhao Xuan pointed to the top of the mountain and said to several other people, "It should be on it." ”
"Be prepared and be vigilant." Song Shaofeng took the pistol out of the holster on his side and looked at the low peak.
was about to say something more, when he heard Zhao Xuan next to him with a soft "huh", he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong." ”
Just as Song Shaofeng was speaking, the roar in Zhao Xuan's ears stopped abruptly!
It wasn't moving away, it wasn't stopping, but like a phone that suddenly lost its signal, all of a sudden, all the sounds disappeared.
Zhao Xuan was stunned, quickly stopped, cheered up and continued to listen again.
After listening for a minute or two, the sound of the wind, birds, and insects was still heard, but the roar never came again.
"No ......" Zhao Xuan was inexplicably surprised, and stared at a few people: "The voice suddenly disappeared!" ”
Song Shaofeng saw that Zhao Xuan was stunned in place, knowing that something must have happened, so he didn't bother, just stood there and watched quietly, until Zhao Xuan spoke, and then asked, "Disappeared?" Don't roar, run away? ”
"No, it's not ......" Zhao Xuan didn't know how to describe it, and thought for a while before saying, "It stopped suddenly." How to describe it, for example, there is a horn on the mountain, which is playing a roar, and suddenly the power is out! ”
After listening to Zhao Xuan's description, several people fell silent.
It was weird enough that others couldn't hear the voice, but now, according to Zhao Xuan's description, the voice disappeared in an even more weird way.
Fortunately, everyone is a professional in dealing with these strange events, so they will not lose their temper, but no one has ever encountered this situation.
This has not been the case with previous anomalies.
"Could it really be as Zhao Xuan described, there is a horn on the top of the mountain?" Zhang Yuan tried to find a reasonable explanation for the matter.
"So how can we explain it if we can't hear it?" Song Shaofeng shook his head.
"Maybe it's a special frequency that only Zhao Xuan can hear?" Zhang Yuan tried to continue.
"So what's that frequency?"
"I don't know."
"I don't even know you, who has the ability?"
"This ...... All right. Zhang Yuan gave up this set of explanations.
"Anyway, let's go up and have a look." Song Shaofeng raised his head, looked at the mountain peaks not far away, and waved his hand to everyone: "Let's go, be careful." ”
The peak is not high, the road is not difficult to walk, a few people follow the ridge, avoid some big rocks, you can climb up, but everyone is careful along the way, walking a little slowly.
There were no footprints or other marks on their way up, at least not in a few months, or other large animals.
There were still more than 100 meters from the top of the mountain, and Zhao Xuan smelled a strong smell of blood.
Glancing at each other, everyone tightened their guns, slowed down, and walked more cautiously towards the front.
At the top of the hill was a small flat area, without a single tree, unsheltered, and there was no sign of any living thing.
But on this flat ground, there are countless bones scattered around, and the flowers and plants on the ground are stained with blood and are a thick black-brown.
Song Shaofeng stopped Zhang Yuan, who was about to continue walking, and commanded a few people to disperse a little first, searching the area around the top of the mountain first.
There is no cover at the top of the mountain, and if it is besieged, it will be much more dangerous than last time.
Zhao Xuan and Zhang Yuan guarded the direction of the road they came from, and Lin Ling and Song Shaofeng went around a whole circle at a distance of more than ten or twenty meters from the top of the mountain.
Returning to the original place, Lin Ling looked at Zhao Xuan with a shocked face against his usual cold expression, and said, "Here, there will be no new traces for at least two days. ”
