The interior of Ssangyong Mountain is foggy and visibility is low.

Half a meter away, it is difficult to distinguish between male and female, and there is no distinction between humans and animals.

Zhang Youzhi and Qiu Ke each had a three-meter-long rope tied around their waists, which was used to ensure that the two of them would not get separated in the fog.

Qiu Ke stepped on the dead branches that had fallen from the trees, making a "click" sound.

"Mr. Zhang, if you feel any discomfort in your body, you must tell me, and we will go back immediately."

Zhang Youzhi followed behind Qiu Ke, unable to see the other party's figure, only hearing the other party's voice.

"Okay, don't worry, I'm in good physical condition and can bear it."

Although Zhang Youzhi is old, he usually pays more attention to physical exercise, and likes some swimming, tai chi and other exercises that are better for the body.

Plus there is money, and the maintenance is also very good.

His current physical fitness is about the same as that of a person about sixty years old and has just entered old age.

It may be more resistant than some young people who stay up all day and eat irregularly.

"Seriously, Mr. Zhang, you are the most physically fit of the elderly I have ever met." Qiu Ke said with a smile as he walked: "My father is just in his early sixties this year, and he is already sick with old age. ”

"I have to run to the hospital at least once a month, and I don't know what kind of state he will be in when he gets old."

Zhang Youzhi asked as if he was at home: "What did your father do when he was young?" ”

"The workers of the steel mill get up early and go to work late every day, and their bodies are exhausted, and all the money they have saved in their lives has been contributed to the hospital."

"Hehe, don't say that, don't look at me and don't get sick, as if my physical fitness is good."

"You see that when I get sick now, it's a serious illness, hehe, I want to die!" Zhang Youzhi joked with a smile.

His mentality is also really good, and he doesn't take his cancer cells seriously at all.

Even if there is no Zhang Xiaoan, he probably won't be too afraid.

After all, I have lived for such a long time, my children and grandchildren are full, my career is brilliant, and I have enjoyed everything I should enjoy, and there is nothing I can't let go.

But as long as he was afraid of death in his heart, he would not go to the ghost place of Shuanglong Mountain to explore.

"Whew! Now that there are more people with terminal illnesses, don't take your illness seriously, now that medicine is so developed, there will always be symptomatic drugs to treat the disease, not to mention that you are also developing drugs to treat terminal diseases, you can relax a little, it's okay! ”

Qiu Ke was still more warm when facing Zhang Youzhi, and he was not so wooden, and would say some words of relief.

It's just that after he said these words, Zhang Youzhi's voice did not come from behind him.

Qiu Ke stopped, turned his head to look at the mist, and called softly, "Mr. Zhang...... Mr. Zhang? ”

There was silence all around.

All that answered Qiu Ke was the breeze blowing the leaves and making a "rustling" sound.

Qiu Ke lowered his head and found that the rope tied to his waist was hanging on the ground, and he let out a "groan" in his heart, and hurriedly pulled the rope hard.

"Whoosh!"

A three-meter-long rope flew out of the fog and whipped into the door of Hulk's head.

"! Exercise! ”

Seeing that the rope was broken, Qiu Ke cursed, and he picked up the rope and looked at the broken place.

The fracture is smooth and flat, definitely not like it was broken, but like it was cut by someone.

Could it be that Mr. Zhang was about to find a place to end his life because of his cancer, and then cut the rope with a knife?

Qiu Ke thought of this possibility for a moment, and cold sweat "brushed" all over his body.

Qiu Ke shouted in a panic: "Mr. Zhang! Mr. Zhang! ”

……

Zhang Youzhi stood in place, rubbing his eyes constantly.

A breeze blew just now, and the sand blew into my eyes.

When he opened his eyes again after rubbing his glasses, he suddenly found that the rope around his waist had broken somewhere.

Zhang Youzhi immediately stood in place and did not dare to move.

"Mr. Zhang! Mr. Zhang! ”

The shouts of Hack echoed through the forest.

Qiuk's voice seemed to echo in the sky, and it seemed as if it was not far in front of his eyes.

Zhang Youzhi felt that Qiu Ke's voice calling to him was everywhere in his ears, and he had tried hard to distinguish it, but he couldn't tell which direction Qiu Ke's voice was coming from.

In desperation, Zhang Youzhi had no choice but to pull his neck and shout: "Qiu Ke! Where are you?! ”

"Hack! cough cough cough ......"

The sharp pain in his lungs made Zhang Youzhi kneel on the ground and cough violently.

Immediately after a "wow", Zhang Youzhi vomited a mouthful of blood.

After all, he was a cancer patient, and his illness would flare up from time to time, making him feel that his breathing was not smooth, and his chest was tight.

Qiu Ke in the forest heard his shout and hurriedly responded: "Mr. Zhang, don't move if you stand still!" I'll go look for you right away! ”

Qiu Ke took out his mobile phone from his waist and found that the screen of the mobile phone had been affected by something, the screen was flashing with snowflakes, and he couldn't operate it no matter how he clicked.

Fortunately, Qiu Ke was prepared.

He pulled the compass out of his pocket, and to his sorrow, the needle of the compass turned wildly like the propeller of an airplane.

Seeing this, Qiu Ke quickly calmed down.

Zhang Youzhi definitely wants to be saved, but in the fog, people can't walk in a straight line at all.

If you take the liberty of moving forward, you may not know where you will go.

"Mr. Zhang, you wait for me, I'll go over right away!"

With a shout, Qiu drew the dagger from his waist, then crouched on the ground and plunged it into the dirt.

He followed the route he remembered, moving small steps and moving forward little by little, his eyes fixed on the line drawn with the dagger under his feet.

As long as the line is straight, it means that he has not deviated.

Although the method is a bit clumsy and time-consuming, it is safe enough.

……

"Mr. Zhang, say something! Otherwise, I won't be able to hear you, and I won't be able to tell where you are! ”

Mr. Zhang...... Mr. Zhang! ”

“……”

Zhang Youzhi knelt on the ground and heard Qiu Ke's call, and wanted to respond but couldn't speak.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Zhang Youzhi coughed and felt like his lungs were about to come out.

In the end, he still couldn't resist, his eyes were black and he fell to the side, and his body rolled down the mountain.

"Mr. Zhang, what's wrong with you...... Mr. Zhang! ”

……

I don't know how long it took.

Zhang Youzhi slowly opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was a skull, which was the unlucky explorer Zhang Xiao'an photographed when he first entered the mountain.

"I'm slot!"

Zhang Youzhi was startled and punched the skull out with a punch.

He turned his head to look around, and found himself rolling into a tent, where a headless skeleton lay squarely beside him.

Rao is Zhang Youzhi, who is already so old, couldn't help but get goosebumps after seeing the bones.

Zhang Youzhi moved his hands and feet in a panic.

"Hiss......"

A heart-piercing pain came from his calf, and Zhang Youzhi fainted again in pain.

"Woohoo!"

"Click, click, click......"

Out of the woods beside him came a strange man with a cloak and a hound.

The strange man walked into the tent and bent down to hold up Zhang Youzhi's face to look carefully.

"Tsk! Big man......"
