At the critical moment, all the muscles in my body tensed up, I burst out with all my strength, gritted my teeth and climbed up the tree desperately.
Among the other people in the team, only one ran after Huang Weizhong. The others watched us climb the tree, and they all imitated us and found a relatively strong tree to climb up.
In fact, there are only two most dangerous things about this kind of mudslide: large and small rocks rolling down the mountain, and the possibility of being washed down the mountain by muddy water.
As long as you can climb a big tree, there won't be so much water flowing down the mountain.
Liu Ruxiang quickly climbed halfway up the tree, and then she climbed to a large branch. After sitting on it with her legs, she actually used an upside-down golden hook and stretched out her arms to me with her head facing down.
When I was a kid, I climbed trees to pick fruits, and I climbed almost this high. But this time, I had traveled a long distance before, and my body was very tired, and I couldn't use my legs and feet.
I held Liu Ruxiang's hand and finally climbed up to a branch on the other side of the tree opposite Liu Ruxiang.
Flash floods flowed through the mountainous area below us, and the muddy water pushed down all the low shrubs. Even the taller ones were smashed to pieces by stones, and then rolled further down the mountain.
Small and large rocks hit the tree trunk like raindrops. One of the security guards was slow to react and could not climb the tree very high, so a fist-sized rock jumped up and hit him in the stomach.
"ah!"
He whined in pain, unable to hold his hands and feet firmly, and fell from the tree and was swept down by the yellow muddy water.
The mudslide lasted for more than three minutes before stopping, but almost none of us dared to get off the tree. Only Wang Mingyin had a foot injury and couldn't hold on anymore and fell out of the tree.
It surprised me that nothing happened to him. This old man looked to be over sixty years old. He had just been lucky. Although the tree he climbed was low, he was also smart and knew to hug the side facing the bottom of the mountain. As a result, all the jumping stones were blocked by the tree. , the mudslide did not hit him, he persisted for the most powerful moment and even managed to escape.
However, Huang Weizhong, the feng shui master with a sinister face, did not know where he had gone.
He just led a man to the other side of the mountain. I don't know if he escaped.
Although this person has a bad temper, he is at least somewhat capable. When we heard the sound just now, he was the only one who knew how to listen to the mudslide with his head on the ground. Without his warning, our team might have been reduced a lot.
This time we encountered a mudslide, and three people were directly left behind. The remaining person was washed down the mountain, and it was probably in danger.
After experiencing the Yin soldiers crossing the border, our team consisted of seven people. Just now Huang Weizhong left with one team member, and another team member was washed away.
Now there are only five in the entire team, including the worker Wang Zhong who just joined.
Liu Ruxiang and I, Wang Mingyin, a security team member, and a worker Wang Zhong.
A few minutes later, Wang Zhong and the last security team member also walked down.
We followed and came down.
The security guard was about to collapse and his body was shaking.
"If I had known, I should have followed those people and left early last night. What do I need the money for? Why did we encounter so many difficulties after entering the mountains!"
"It's wolves, these ghosts, and even mudslides. This mountain is too dangerous. I can't stay here."
Liu Ruxiang sighed and consoled her: "It's useless to blame others. Even if you want to leave now, we have to wait until the rain stops before we can go out."
Unexpectedly, Huang Weizhong, an old guy, is still very calm now.
He rubbed his ankles with a very natural look on his face: "I'm an old man and I didn't say I was scared. Why are you, a young man, so scared?"
He gritted his teeth and said: "Masters, you have also gone to the construction site to perform rituals. Now you still want to go deeper and find the four remaining workers who don't know how to live or die?"
Worker Wang Zhong followed and said, "Yeah, let's stop looking. Let's go to the mountain immediately and wait for the rain to stop, and then go down and go out."
I was also a little tired and wanted to go home.
The current backbone of the team is Liu Ruxiang.
She also sensed this situation and muttered: "Okay, let's go up the mountain and wait for the rain to stop."
Just like countless times before, a few of us picked up our bags and walked up the mountain with the last security team member supporting Wang Mingyin.
We were very lucky and after twenty minutes we found a cave on the top of the mountain.
Half of the area inside was filled with standing water, but there were still some dry areas.
Everyone sat on the floor, almost exhausted.
Either eating or drinking water, it took a long time to regain strength.
It's still raining outside.
It lasted much longer than we imagined. It rained until about four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost dark. The rain gradually became lighter, but there would still be a few drizzles falling from the sky from time to time.
An alcohol stove was lit in the cave, and everyone kept warm all afternoon. After resting, they loaded up their bags again.
Now, get ready to go out.
It got very dark and I still needed a flashlight when going down the mountain.
Moreover, it is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down the mountain. It is tiring to go up the mountain and dangerous to go down the mountain.
None of us dared to speed up.
When it was almost five o'clock, we arrived at the foot of the mountain.
But just as we were going down the mountain, suddenly there was a sound coming from the grass on the roadside.
A man in blue overalls rushed out in an instant, with a ferocious expression on his face. He swung a hammer and struck hard at Wang Zhong, the worker who was walking in the front.
My eyes widened and I became nervous instantly.
"go to hell!"
Wang Zhong swayed to avoid the attack, and then he actually pulled out a knife from his waist and pushed the worker to the ground when he wasn't paying attention.
Wang Zhong held the knife tightly, and it shone coldly under the flashlight behind me. Then he stabbed the worker suddenly.
"Puff! Puff! Puff!"
"Stop!" Liu Ruxiang reacted instantly and rushed over immediately.
Wang Zhong also put away the knife at this time, his face spattered with blood spurting from the wound on the man's back.
Under the illumination of the flashlight, he grinned like a demon.
"What are you doing! Why do you want to kill her?" Liu Ruxiang was furious and pulled out the dagger from her waist.
Wang Zhong snorted coldly and wiped the blood from his eyes.
"Do you know what you are talking about? Didn't you see just now that he had already picked up the hammer and said he was going to kill me? Didn't you see that he had been chasing me for a long time? What I did just now It was just self-defense and I did nothing wrong."
Wang Zhong felt confident, then grabbed a few leaves from the roadside and repeatedly wiped the blood on the dagger.
