The quiet mountain forest is full of birds and flowers, and the cool temperature by the mountain stream is also very comfortable.

A group of people are busy here, frolicking and setting up tents and camps.

It was a camping activity organized privately by colleagues from the company, and of course, it was all young people, because they had to carry tents and other equipment to climb and hike, and the older people were not physically strong.

Originally, everyone hoped that the company would organize a camping, but the company organized group tours every year, and there were tour guides to drive buses, so this year, many colleagues simply did not follow the company, but let a few colleagues with outdoor experience take the lead in organizing themselves, so there was also this mountaineering camp.

Ji Yuan has only been in this software company for two years, and his hair is still black, so he naturally belongs to the category of young people, so this time he is playing mobile games online with another colleague after setting up the tent.

"Hey, hey!!, I'!!!m dead!"

"What's the use of giving you a lot? It's up to me in two seconds and I'll be able to escape, now it's okay, I'll send a double kill on the road..."

"My, my... Let's play you as a shooter, and I'll assist you!"

"Don't, don't... I'll find a passer-by to help..."

Don't look at this place It seems to be in the middle of the mountain, but the base station can be seen on the top of the mountain in the distance, and the two of them are playing hard with their mobile phones, and there is not much delay in the Internet speed.

Naturally, there are places where the signal in China is extremely poor or even none, but most people have long been accustomed to having a signal everywhere, which is the confidence brought by the improvement of infrastructure and equipment, so that people forget about the signal unconsciously.

They pitched their tent on a relatively flat hill with a clear stream on the side, making it a great place for wild camping.

There were a total of more than a dozen people here, a large number of people are now taking pictures outside, and a few are adjusting their tents, and Wang Gang, Ji Yuan and Li Jun seem to be idle.

Wang Gang was about to use stones to build an earthen stove for barbecue, looked at the camp, and Ji Yuan and Li Jun had kung fu.

"Ji Yuan, army, stop playing games, go find some firewood, we will make a fire in a while, otherwise we will eat cold canned food at noon!"

A little farther away, a colleague shouted to the two people sitting at the entrance of the tent.

"Got it!!" "Okay!"

Li Jun and Ji Yuan both replied, and then looked at each other, anyway, they had been sprayed into dogs by their teammates, so they quit the game directly.

The two stood up and walked towards the woodland on the side, into the denser shade of the trees.

There is no shortage of firewood in the mountains and forests, and fallen branches are everywhere, Li Jun dragged a big branch around, and from time to time he threw it around, and he still shouted "drink and hey", like a fool in Ji Yuan's eyes.

In order to prevent being infected, and for fear of being accidentally injured by Li Jun's "crazy demon" stick method, Ji Yuan hurriedly stayed away from this guy.

Like most young people in modern times, Ji Yuan's grandfather has a bunch of brothers and sisters, and Ji Yuan's father is an only son in his father's generation, but there are also a few aunts who have become only children in Ji Yuan's generation.

Maybe it's the children and grandchildren who are less and more precious, some simple and crude naming patterns such as "golden flowers, honeysuckle, Guoxing, Cuifen" and so on, and when it comes to the grandson's generation, it suddenly became poetic, and the grandfather also asked the uncle who had been a feng shui gentleman for decades to think together, and finally took a single name with the word "yuan", and the whole family was very satisfied.

"Ah! The air in the mountains is so good!

Ji Yuan sighed, and was not in a hurry to pick up firewood, but walked around the forest first, and brought it over on the return trip to save effort.

It was only about a minute after walking around, and Ji Yuan suddenly found that there were several stout trees in front of him, which were visually bigger than the surrounding trees, and he didn't know how many rounds.

"Great army, great army, come and see, there are a few super thick trees !! this army!!"

Ji Yuan shouted to the other side, and found that the goods were still brushing sticks, so he ignored him for the time being, and planned to walk over to take a look first, and take everyone to see it later.

When he got closer, Ji Yuan had a more intuitive feeling for these trees.

The outermost one alone has a lot of exposed roots, which are intertwined on the ground, and some of them are estimated to be as thick as their thighs.

'Wow... Is there such an old tree here?'

Niutou Mountain is not a famous tourist attraction, but there are many people who come to the mountains for outings and barbecues, and it stands to reason that someone should post such a thick tree on the Internet, right?

However, Ji Yuan just thought about it casually, and then turned to the other side, which was blocked by the big tree outside.

"Huh!!"

A voice of doubt came out of his mouth.

On that side, in addition to seeing a few other ancient trees that were also extremely thick, I actually saw a chessboard in the middle of several trees, to be exact, a stump with a chessboard on top of it.

Ji Yuan subconsciously took a few steps forward and arrived at the edge of the stump where the chessboard was.

Looking left and right, there are no warning signs to warn tourists to pay attention, and of course there are no chess players.

On the chessboard, the black and white are criss-crossed, the black is like a formation, and the white is like a dragon, which is a typical Chinese Go, or a chess game with half of the game.

This makes Ji Yuan a little curious, is the hill of Niutou Mountain intended to be developed as a scenic spot?

But the chessboard and its surroundings were already covered with fallen leaves and dead branches, intermittently littered with bird droppings and rotten fruits, and it was evident that it was a long time ago, whether it was a real game or a decoration.

Then his eyes swept to something special at the back of the chess game, a rusty object next to an old tree, which had been visibly swollen and deformed due to excessive rust.

Ji Yuan took a few steps closer and took a closer look, and after thinking about it, it felt like an exaggerated rusty axe.

'Wait!Is it still the legendary rotten chess game!?'

This idea also made Ji Yuan laugh at himself, this decoration is really like that, and it also brought up Ji Yuan's interest.

He returned to the side of the chess game and carefully took a cue, looking at the full plate of black and white zi, Ji Yuan, who didn't know much about Go, suddenly felt that the more he looked at the big dragon Baizi, the more awkward he became, it was obvious that he could be very coherent, but there was one less through, and there was a sense of threat of being surrounded by seemingly chaotic sunspots.

The point is that for some reason, the feeling of the white dragon's lack of horns made Ji Yuan's obsessive-compulsive disorder rise, and the corner of his eye glanced at the two wooden chess boxes on the side of the chessboard a few times, and then, he reached out and took a white piece like a ghost.

This chess piece has a very sense of weight, it feels like taking an iron, but the touch is like a ceramic, Ji Yuan weighed it, and looked left and right again as a thief, and reached out to land the white piece in the center of the chessboard, which is the "Tian Yuan" in Go terminology.

"Yes!!I feel so much more comfortable now!"

Ji Yuan clapped his hands and took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, planning to take a few photos and record the video or something, and then ask everyone to take a look.

It's just that the phone unlock button was pressed several times, and the unlock prompt didn't pop up.

"Damn!!What's the situation?It's really out of power!?"

The mobile phone is really out of power, and the Chang'an boot button is calculated, the mobile phone also vibrates to turn on and automatically shut down, and it doesn't even jump out when you press it again.

The phone is at least 80% charged after playing, but it will automatically turn off before you know it.

Ji Yuan turned his head to look outside, but he didn't see the army of sticks before.

'Forget it, go get the power bank!'

With this thought in mind, Ji Yuan walked in the direction of the camp, and after a few steps, he noticed that the sky was actually a little dark.

And after walking for a few minutes, Ji Yuan was stunned, he saw the trickling stream, saw the flat hill, but, what about the camp?

Not to mention that none of the people in the company are gone, even the tents are all gone, what the hell is going on?

It's not April Fool's Day, and it's so hard to set up a tent and build a camp, so the fool immediately dismantled it and played a prank.

Ji Yuan looked around, and saw two people in some kind of uniform sitting there resting by the stream a little farther away, so he quickly approached a little closer and asked.

"Dude, may I ask you, where did you see the camping people in front of you? We just set up camp not long ago!"

The two of them trembled visibly, startled by the sudden sound.

Then he turned his head and looked at Ji Yuan in surprise, although they were resting just now, they were also paying attention to the surroundings, this person seemed to have appeared suddenly.

Hearing Ji Yuan's question, one of them subconsciously opened his mouth to answer.

"Camping? No one has been camping in Niutou Mountain for the past two days, and they are all busy looking for the missing. ”

"Huh?"

Ji Yuan's answer made Ji Yuan even more confused.

"Someone is missing in the mountains?"

I checked before the company organized a group, and there was nothing wrong here, and even the weather was very good.

"Yes, I have been missing for more than half a month, and a young man named Ji Yuan came out camping with his colleagues from the company. By the way, who did you come to the mountains with, and what about your companions? I don't know about the search for the missing?"

The search and rescue team members carefully looked at the person in front of them as they spoke, and felt that this person's foreign trade characteristics were somewhat familiar, and Ji Yuan on the side was directly stunned when he heard this.

'Missing??

Ji Yuan's first reaction was to feel ridiculous, and his second reaction was to feel that something was wrong.

Before he could say anything more in the stunned Ji Yuan, a strong feeling of dizziness came.

As soon as it was dark in front of him, Ji Yuan seemed to have lost all his physical strength in an instant, and a strong sense of weakness and dizziness came with it, and with a burst of weakness in his legs, his body fell.

And in the process, Ji Yuan's body slimmed down at a rate visible to the naked eye, and his lips seemed to become extremely chapped as if they were rapidly weathering.

"Sir, what's wrong with you, be careful!!"

"Hold him, hold him!!"

"It's not good!! call for reinforcements!!"

The last voice Ji Yuan heard in his life was the exclamation of the two search and rescue team members as if they were coming from outside the sky.
