Walking blindfolded makes me feel very uneasy.
In addition, when entering the woods in the deep mountains, there are always some breezes coming from the woods, bringing with it a cool breath, which will make you feel cold when it blows to your collar and neck.
I didn't dare to walk any faster, and the steps I took were very small, almost touching the ground.
It was at this sudden moment that my feet became unstable one by one.
A huge force suddenly grabbed my foot.
My body's weight couldn't stop falling forward.
"Ouch!" I shouted, and immediately laid my hands on the ground and fell to the ground.
"Ouch, ouch, it hurts me to death." I fell to the ground. I didn't know the situation yet, so I immediately took off the blindfold on my face.
My eyes widened and I looked at my feet.
It turned out that it was not someone who grabbed my ankle at all. It was just that I accidentally tripped over the eight-root grass that was not dead last year while walking.
"It hurts, oops." When I yelled, Chen Yulin twisted his face in anger, widened his eyes and shouted at me: "Who asked you to take off the blindfold? Hurry up and put it on me. Put it on me." ! Don’t look around!”
I looked over stupidly, and then I realized that Liu Ruxiang also felt sorry for me, and immediately untied the bag wrapped around her head after she stopped.
The fourth uncle also followed suit. After taking off the cloth covering his eyes, he took advantage of the situation and secretly glanced around.
I know that Liu Ruxiang may really care about my safety, but these four uncles are definitely fishing in troubled waters, taking advantage of unexpected situations while walking to secretly memorize the route.
"Who told you to take off the blindfolds? Put them on, put them all on, otherwise I will leave right now, and you can go and search for them in this mountain!"
Chen Yulin was furious.
When Liu Ruxiang saw that I tripped over the grass, she took a breath and squatted down to look at my ankle.
"Why, does this foot hurt? Can I still walk?" Liu Ruxiang asked softly, extremely gentle.
I chuckled, always feeling like this unintentional accident was intentional.
I just tripped and fell. I put my hands in front of me to support myself, but I wasn't actually injured.
"it's okay no problem."
Liu Ruxiang breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." As he said that, he also put on the cloth strip on his head.
The Fourth Master couldn't resist Chen Yulin's threats and could only put on a blindfold with an unhappy look on his face.
This Chen Yulin also thought that I was slow in my movements, so he pulled off the eight grass blades with three strokes, and then asked me to quickly put on the cloth strip.
I did as he said, but secretly I also imitated the Fourth Master's example and looked around the whole place.
Haha, the old guy must be furious.
I smiled. If I go over again and search carefully, maybe I can actually find the final destination.
"You Liu family are really not honest at all." Chen Yulin scolded in a low voice.
I was unshakable in my heart. Anyway, in my eyes, this old man was just a tool. After he brought us to the destination, he would lose his use.
A group of us continued walking, but because Chen Yulin, the leader in front, was afraid that I would follow the same routine again and secretly observe the surrounding environment, he would not give me a chance. The walking speed was much faster. Lifting and lowering your feet alternately makes it impossible to fall.
Our team slowly moved towards the depths of the mountain. Soon, after walking like this for more than half an hour, we began to rest and stop.
After sitting on the grass and drinking water for a while, the fourth uncle couldn't sit still and insisted on forcing Chen Yulin to tell him about their ancestor's cemetery.
"Anyway, we are going to your ancestral land soon. Just tell us what is going on?"
But Chen Yulin refused to agree even if he was beaten to death. He only said that the grave was on the ground.
There was no way to communicate anymore, so we rested for a while and continued our journey.
Nearly another hour passed, and finally, our route began to change!
We all walked with our eyes closed, and because we were holding hands, we didn’t need to think in our brains at all, so we closed our eyes and simulated the road map in our minds.
But Chen Yulin obviously thought of this and quickly took countermeasures.
Because if the road map carved by our footsteps in our minds is a line, then we have drawn three small circles.
How many times did he pull us around? Where did it start and where did it end up? You have no idea at all, and you may even have misremembered it.
The reason why we say the steps are wrong at this time is because we have stopped.
"Everyone, please don't take off the cloth covering your eyes, otherwise, I won't take anyone who takes it off and continue to leave. You can find it yourself." Chen Yulin said this, and continued to give up my desire to take it off. The impulse of black cloth strips.
"Don't move, you all, I'll take a pee." Chen Yulin said, and sure enough, we heard the sound of water.
"Da-da-da--" The old man's health was failing, and I could almost clearly hear the sound of urine dripping onto the dead leaves.
"Hey, Old Chen, are you okay? Hurry up." The fourth uncle urged.
When Chen Yulin finished removing his hands and came over, the fourth uncle looked disgusted again: "You little fourth old man, you are so disgusting. You can't get it on your hands, right?"
The fourth uncle was the one who held Chen Yulin's hand, so it was normal for him to feel disgusted.
"What are you talking about? It's sweat on my hands. I'm old and weak, and I'm too hot."
We quarreled for a while and continued walking, but I clearly felt that something was different!
The ground beneath our feet turned downhill.
"We still have to walk down the mountain for a while."
Chen Yulin said this, but I clearly felt that even the air around us was different. There was suddenly a smell of moisture and mold in the air.
Why, how did you get here? what happened?
I was confused, and then I heard Chen Yulin's voice: "Everyone, please walk faster."
As he said that, the pace in front of him couldn't help but speed up a little.
"Hey, you old man, why are you walking so fast?" The fourth uncle cursed, but the person in front was faster and he had to go faster, and a group of us couldn't stop trotting. .
And at this moment, I suddenly realized something was wrong. Because right under our feet, it no longer has the texture of land at all!
And all this, we have been walking deep for so long, and the fourth uncle Liu Ruxiang and the others didn't notice it?
I suddenly realized something was wrong.
"What's going on? We're not outdoors anymore?" I said in a panic.
"Uncle Chen, stop, stop." I shouted. Not only did I not hear Chen Yulin's voice in front of me, but the speed of our group suddenly became much faster.
"Tap-tap-tap-"
The footsteps of a group of us walked on the ground, and the sound was like the sound of stepping on stone slabs.
I felt the delicate hand behind me suddenly let go, and at the same time I broke away from the hand of the fourth uncle in front of me.
At this time, we took off the blindfold and were shocked for a moment. It was pitch black in front of us and we couldn't see anything.
After removing this strip of cloth, it was completely dark. I never expected this to be the case.
Something's wrong!
This is not normal. If it is a dark environment, people can't see in the first place. Why do they need to cover their eyes with a cloth?
"Ask the mountain, ask the mountain!" Liu Ruxiang's shout came from behind.
Hearing Master's voice, I suddenly felt much better.
"Master, Master." I shouted nervously.
Then the next second, I saw a dazzling light. It was Liu Ruxiang who turned on the flashlight. She stood behind me and looked in front of me, her eyes suddenly widened.
I looked along this beam of light, and suddenly my breath stopped!
In front of me was the fourth uncle. He had just removed the black strips of cloth on his face, but... right in front of him, he was completely different!
A shriveled purple-black corpse suddenly stood upright. His legs were still walking towards the cave, pat, pat, pat. The sound of footsteps reached my ears from near to far. inside.
What the hell!
The posture of the corpse was that of extending one hand behind him and letting the person behind him hold his hand!
The purple-black corpse was running on the ground, and then it was like a kite with its string broken, as if all the muscles in its body were pulled out in an instant.
"Crack-"
With a sound, his whole body fell heavily to the ground, and there was no more movement!
I looked at the body lying on the ground in horror.
It just happened in a moment, what happened? Where are we now, and that Chen Yulin, where has he gone!
The fourth uncle was so angry that he couldn't help but tremble: "Damn it, I thought it was that old guy who didn't wash his hands and made my hands wet with urine... This, this, this, what, this is a completely different person. , I said there is still water on your hands, they are wet..."
I recalled in my mind the situation just now, the sudden change in the air, the completely different ground under my feet, and the wrong-feeling hand. All these changes happened after Chen Yulin said he wanted to relieve himself.
"It's that old guy who's causing trouble." I was so angry that I wanted to beat that old guy up after seeing him.
Liu Ruxiang slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "In this case, let's go back the same way to see what's going on and whether we can get out."
This is a good suggestion. The fourth uncle came back from the atmosphere of holding hands with the corpse, snorted coldly, and led me to follow Liu Ruxiang's turn and return.
"Wen Shan, how did you first realize that something was wrong just now?" the fourth uncle asked me.
I just mentioned the difference in the sound of footsteps.
