"Kaka"
"Kaka"
The sound of metal tapping echoed in the quiet mountains, and the figure who was looking for wild fungi in the forest couldn't help but raise his head.
"What's going on? Did someone drive up in a car?"
Yue Jixiang picked a porcini mushroom from the ground and put it into the bamboo basket he was carrying, with a look of confusion on his face.
There is not even a decent road in the mountainous area here. Who is driving in? Are you here for off-roading?
If this is the case, it would be better not to crush the wild mushrooms.
You must know that it is the season for wild mushrooms, and there are many places he has not visited yet.
Thinking of this, Yue Jixiang couldn't help but speed up the picking of wild mushrooms, lest he miss the edible wild mushrooms later.
You must know that wild mushrooms are different every day. What you can eat today may be as hard as plastic tomorrow.
But after a while, the metal friction sound heard in my ears did not decrease, but became heavier.
Yue Jixiang, who was picking wild mushrooms, couldn't help but raise his head and look around.
"Is this guy coming at me? Why is the voice getting louder instead of decreasing? I said I didn't provoke anyone, so why are you coming at me?"
Yue Jixiang said to himself.
He hasn't provoked anyone, has he? There's no way someone would sneak up on him while he was on the mountain to collect wild mushrooms when he was full and had nothing to do, right?
But even if it was like this, this guy wouldn't feel well.
After all, this is a legal society. Doesn’t the other party still want to kill him?
Thinking of this, Yue Jixiang shook his head again and muttered:
"Maybe I'm overthinking it, and the other party is just going off-road along this road."
“How am I worth the risk of someone else going to jail?”
Thinking of this, Yue Jixiang continued to pick wild mushrooms.
The weather today was quite cloudy, but if it had been a sunny day like the past few days, he wouldn't have dared to come to the mountains to collect wild mushrooms.
After all, the temperature in August is no joke. In addition, it is normal for people to be extremely hot here in the mountains.
Yue Jixiang continued to step on the wild mushrooms, but the route began to change. Heading towards the denser woods.
Although the other party may really just be going off-road, it is necessary to be on guard against others, especially in such barren mountains and mountains.
After entering the dense forest, the sound of "kaka" became quieter as expected.
After Yue Jixiang found out, a relaxed smile appeared on his face:
"Sure enough, it's quiet in the woods. It's really noisy outside."
"Kacha"
"Kacha"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of trees breaking around him.
Suddenly, his face became tense again.
If I just said that it is normal to hear the sound of metal banging in a slightly sparser place outside? So now that he has walked into a denser forest, the sound of breaking trees can be heard again?
That was really abnormal, someone must be looking for him.
"What's going on? Who's chasing me?"
Yue Jixiang, who was holding the bamboo basket tightly on his back, was running as he spoke, trying hard to get away from the voice that followed.
"No... okay, this guy is following too closely, I can't get rid of him." Yue Jixiang's face was pale and his tongue was a little knotted.
He desperately wanted to escape, but the guy behind him didn't know what was going on?
It was much faster than him and he couldn't escape.
Feeling desperate, Yue Jixiang stopped and took out his cell phone from his pocket. I called the police, hoping to use this method to scare off the pursuers who were following me.
"Hello! Where are you?"
After the call was dialed, a voice came from the phone immediately.
"Hello, police officer! I am on the mountain in Liuxi Village, Kuncheng Town, Kumho City, and I am being followed now."
"I hope you can come and save me soon."
Yue Jixiang replied while panting heavily and looking around.
"Okay, we got it."
"We will notify the surrounding police officers immediately, and we hope you can hold on. Don't give up easily."
"Okay, officers, you must come quickly."
"I heard the sound getting closer and closer. He will appear soon if he appears." Yue Jixiang said nervously, sweat dripping from his forehead.
He heard it, the distinct sound of trees snapping.
The sound was so close, right around him.
"Don't be nervous. Do you have any weapons around you to protect yourself?" the police officer who spoke to the phone asked, but heard a "Winter" sound.
His face suddenly turned ugly, and he quickly reported it.
In the dense forest, Yue Jixiang's eyes widened and big beads of sweat dripped from the tips of his hair.
He even dropped his cell phone to the ground without noticing it.
In front of him was a figure whose upper body was covered with rotten flesh and whose lower body was wearing tattered and faded trousers and dragging an iron chain.
"You...don't come here, don't come here..." Yue Jixiang screamed, his legs instantly softened and he collapsed on the ground.
A warm stream of heat flowed out inadvertently, warming his lower body.
Suddenly, his face turned ugly and he slapped his softened thighs while cursing:
"Get up, get hard."
But the legs are still not in control, and I can't use even half of my strength.
Yue Jixiang could only use his hands to pull at the dirt and move desperately.
He doesn't want to die. He doesn't want to die yet. He is only twenty-seven or eighty years old now, which is a good age. He doesn't even have a wife. He doesn't want to die so early.
Mom, he won't pick wild mushrooms anymore, he wants to go home.
"Susuo"
"Susuo"
The chain scraped against the leaves, and the figure with a rotting upper body gradually approached.
Yue Jixiang, who was half-lying on the ground, crawling with his hands and crying, suddenly heard a "gurgling" sound in his ears.
His vision suddenly darkened, and his upper body, which was crawling desperately, fell down.
But the strange thing is that there is no blood stain at all.
"Susuo"
"Susuo"
The rotting figure walked over and came to Yue Jixiang's side. After a while, his upper body began to fall and roll to the side.
Only the lower half of his body was still standing there, and suddenly there was movement in Yue Jixiang's upper body on the ground.
He pulled the ground with both hands to prop up his upper body, then grabbed the ragged trouser legs and reached the smooth section to close the broken gap.
"Kaka"
The re-integrated "Yue Jixiang" twisted his neck, stared at one place, and continued to move forward in one direction.
Not long after he left, the rotting upper body suddenly accelerated the decay process.
It didn't take long before it turned into a ball of mud and completely melted into the soil.
A few hours later, the rustling sound came from the dense forest again, but this time it was police officers wearing police uniforms.
"Everyone, keep moving forward. The mobile phone signal is just ahead." The police officer leading the team said. They set off as soon as possible after receiving the notice from above.
But the mountain was indeed difficult to walk. After a lot of effort, they finally reached their destination.
He just hopes that his people can find useful clues when they go there, after all, judging from the notification above.
The reporter was most likely dead by now.
"Captain, do you smell blood? I smell a very strong smell of blood, mixed with a pungent rotten smell."
As a group of people were walking, a police officer suddenly said that his nose had been very good since he was a child. Everyone used to call him a dog nose, and he could smell even the smallest smell.
"No, I don't smell any blood or decay."
"Yeah, I didn't smell it either, but the smell of sweat on my body was very strong. Could it be that you smelled it wrong?"
The companions who were acting together shook their heads when they heard this. They were so happy that they were all wet. They could only smell the sweat on their own bodies, but not the smell of blood or rot.
Could it be that the other party is overheated and hallucinating?
They have police dogs with them. What if there really is the smell of blood in front of them? Logically speaking, the police dog should have barked, but Xiao Hei is still following quietly.
"Impossible." The police officer who heard this shook his head and said, "My nose is very good. It is impossible for such a problem to occur. There must be blood and rotten things in front of it."
He had never had any problems with his nose since he was a child, so it would definitely not happen this time. He was sure there was blood in the front.
Reading with rice balls
"Really? Your nose is so sharp?" The companions who heard this looked at Xiao Hei and laughed: "Xiao Hei, someone is trying to steal your job from you, what do you think we should do?"
"Yes, Xiao Hei will be unemployed soon."
Everyone joked.
The police officer who heard this was a little helpless. Why didn't everyone believe him?
"Okay, stop arguing."
"We are not going up the mountain to play. Let's hurry up and get on our way." The police officer walking at the front heard the laughter from behind and said.
"Yes, Captain." The police officers immediately became serious after hearing this and no longer smiled playfully.
However, the little episode just now made them relax a lot because of the hot weather.
"Woof woof woof"
At this moment, Xiao Hei, who was following him, suddenly shouted.
Died Light, who was walking at the front, heard it and immediately said: "Let Xiao Hei go, he must have made a discovery."
"yes."
Upon hearing this, the police officer holding Xiao Hei immediately untied the rope.
Xiao Hei rushed out instantly.
Upon seeing this, the police officer immediately began to jog to follow him, and the others quickly caught up with him.
"rustle"
"rustle"
Xiao Hei ran in the forest much faster than everyone else, and it didn't take long before he arrived at the eucalyptus place.
It stopped where it was, barking and moving back and forth to carefully watch its surroundings.
Everyone who heard the sound quickened their pace and moved towards the place where Xiao Hei shouted.
At the same time, they also began to smell the smell of blood and the indescribable rotten stench.
