The camera shifted, the scene switched, it was still inside the woods, still a forest scene, the only thing that changed was the location.
Hooray, hooray.
Sand, sand, sand, sand.
Feeling the cool breeze around him and listening to the chirping of birds in the forest, against the background of the leaves rustling in the wind, Liu Dong's body was shaking wildly, his eyes were wide open, a heavy cold sweat fell down his forehead, and there were traces of blood on his side. Zhang Qifeng and Zhang Zhiyong, who had the same reaction, froze on the spot together, stunned on the spot. .
The three of them were trapped in fear and couldn't extricate themselves. They were currently in a collective daze. They were all stunned in place, all bowing their heads in silence. They all looked down at the ground, staring at a corpse on the ground.
A bloody mutilated corpse that was so thoroughly broken that even the human form could not be preserved.
The description is like this, and it is also true in reality. From the field of vision, you can see that the corpse on the ground is still torn apart, and the residual limbs and organs are still piled up into a hillock, and there is still a complete head on the top of the hillock, but...
This time, the head above the pile of corpses was no longer unfamiliar. It was the head of an acquaintance, someone whom the three people present were collectively familiar with.
He lowered his head and took a closer look, and as far as he could see, he saw that the head and face were none other than Ma Zhilong! ! !
………
Ma Zhilong is dead.
The death was inexplicable, the death was extremely strange, so strange that it was beyond the scope of human understanding!
As for the process...
The process is not complicated. As mentioned before, 20 minutes ago, when Ma Zhilong followed Liu Dong and the three of them, the road was panicked and returned. Everything was normal at first. Unexpectedly, 15 minutes ago, Ma Zhilong stopped moving again, and then pointed in a certain direction and said that he saw that place again. Famous woman in pink skirt.
The results are predictable and the answer is self-evident.
Along the finger pointing, everyone turned around and saw nothing for a long time. It was still the same as the previous time. No matter how they looked, there was nothing. From beginning to end, they could not see anyone or the pink powder described by Ma Zhilong. skirt woman.
Is it possible that this person is really crazy?
Seeing that the observation was fruitless, Liu Dong became more convinced that Ma Zhilong had a mental problem and was hallucinating due to demonic confusion. After thinking about this, he immediately ignored it and hurriedly called Ma Zhilong to follow everyone, so the four of them continued to move forward, pressing The original plan was to retreat hastily toward the outskirts of the woods.
If all went well, it would only take a few minutes for them to be out of the woods and back on the bus.
It's a pity if only if.
The reality caught several people off guard.
As time passed and the walk continued, after about 10 minutes, everyone discovered something strange. That is, after walking for a long time and moving for a long time, they were still in the forest and still had not left the forest!
There are always trees and grass ahead. There is no way out or away from it, and the peripheral road is far away.
Just when Liu Dong, Zhang Qifeng and Zhang Zhiyong felt guilty and instinctively stopped due to the strange phenomenon, and planned to discuss the issue, Ma Zhilong, who had been following the three of them, actually made a sound and moved, pointing in a certain direction, in front of everyone. Said that the third time he looked at a woman, he saw a woman in a pink skirt.
It's a pity that no one believed it, and no one believed it anymore. After the first two experiences, even the old horse swore and swore, but no one paid attention to it. After all, everyone has heard the story of the boy who cried wolf.
As mentioned above, seeing Ma Zhilong talking nonsense again, no one around him paid attention, and none of the three people turned around to talk to him. Instead, they gathered together to discuss the problem, exploring practical topics such as whether they were going in the wrong direction.
After some discussion, the three finally agreed that the direction was correct, and everyone kept returning along the correct path. Even so, no one could explain the reason. For example, why could they not get out of the woods even though the direction was correct? Another example is why I can’t see the peripheral highway after walking for a long time?
All kinds of puzzles covered their minds, all kinds of doubts clouded their thoughts, and the signal disappeared and communication was interrupted, making it impossible for several people to even call the outside world for help.
After deliberation for a long time, there was no result, and we had no choice but to forcefully explain it by saying we were lost.
but……
In the woods, when the three of them were getting more and more uneasy because they were inexplicably lost, they scratched their heads and perhaps noticed that Ma Zhilong behind him had not moved for a long time. Out of instinct, Zhang Qifeng subconsciously glanced back, wanting to see his old boss. I didn’t say anything for a long time, but what kind of plane was this? But...
It didn't matter what he saw. When the pockmarked man turned around, he saw one scene after another.
Ma Zhilong is indeed still behind several people, but his form has changed.
Turned into a corpse, a mutilated corpse, a pile of torn body parts! ! !
The other party died, inexplicably and silently. He died suddenly and violently without anyone at the scene noticing it. Even after death, the body was cut into a pile of horrific flesh and blood for no reason. Broken pieces!
Just like the pile of broken corpses he encountered earlier, the whole person was torn into pieces and piled up into a mound. The only intact head was still placed directly above the broken pieces. He suddenly turned around and took a closer look, and saw Ma Zhilong's eyes widening. His mouth was wide open, and he looked like he was refusing to rest in peace!
After being stunned for a few seconds, Zhang Qifeng screamed, a shrill wail full of trembling due to excessive panic. The pockmarked man was almost frightened to death. He was frightened by the bloody corpse so close at hand and collapsed to the ground. His urine gushed out uncontrollably. When they came out, their crotches were wet with semen and their whole bodies were shaking wildly. Affected by it, Liu Dong and Zhang Zhiyong were startled and turned around with their hearts racing. Then, there were two more shrill screams that were almost the same.
Yes, the three of them did not expect, they never dreamed that they had not seen each other for just a moment. In just a moment, when they turned around, Ma Zhilong died. He died silently and inexplicably. His death was tragic and weird, weird to the extreme, weird to the extreme. It is even beyond the scope of human understanding.
………
Hooray.
The breeze blows continuously, the wind level is not too strong, and the environment is not too cold. However, for Liu Dong and the three of them who are now in the forest, they are very cold, unbearable, and as cold as an ice cave.
Back to the topic, staring at the pile of corpses in front of them, feeling the strange environment. At this moment, whether it was Liu Dong, Zhang Qifeng or Zhang Zhiyong, the three of them were collectively frightened to the point of peeing. They were stunned for a long time. As their condition improved slightly, their panic decreased slightly. , the three of them could not help but have an unanswerable question in their minds, that is...
How did Ma Zhilong die?
Why did he die behind so many people in such an instant? And his death was so miserable? It’s so scary. Who killed him? Who did it again? Is he the perverted murderer he originally expected? No, no, to take a step back, even if there is a perverted murderer hiding in this forest who kills people on sight, even if the murderer can kill a person silently, he can't do it in a short time no matter what. It was impossible to dismember a corpse, and it was impossible to crush the corpse silently in just two minutes with three people who were close at hand.
Or it can simply be understood that it is absolutely impossible for humans to do this kind of thing!
Unless, unless...
The geography of the East has created Eastern culture, and Eastern culture has been influencing people for thousands of years. There are countless rumors and legends, and there are also many folklores in the vast years. No one can completely block this kind of influence, even if you grow up In a modern city, you receive scientific education from an early age. However, as an Oriental, you will inevitably be influenced by the culture that has been passed down for thousands of years.
This does not matter whether you are a theist or an atheist. The reality is before you and you cannot help but think that way.
In the dead silence, they looked at each other for a long time, thinking about it for a long time, feeling the strange and incomprehensible oppression. Gradually, some kind of guess, a guess that was just a story to a few people in the past, emerged in their minds, and then a The little points are combined and finally combined into a word, an unreal word that is purely fictitious in the eyes of contemporary people:
螞! ! !
Suffering from extreme weird oppression and extreme fear, at the end of my thinking, this terrible word that can be equated with both fear and death emerged in my mind and shrouded my heart.
The reason for this kind of association comes from an earlier incident, from Ma Zhilong's strange behavior not long ago.
Yes, as early as the beginning of his return, Ma Zhilong had stared at someone else's place blankly and suspiciously, saying that he saw a woman in a pink skirt, and had done similar behavior three times before and after. Each time, he took the initiative to tell her and raised his hand, swearing eloquently, but Unfortunately, the three of them couldn't see it. No one saw the woman in the pink skirt that Lao Ma mentioned. They thought she was mentally disturbed until...
Until Ma Zhilong died suddenly and mysteriously, and his body was inexplicably dismembered, the three of them finally became frightened. After convinced that humans could not do this, they all shifted their thoughts and uncontrollably thought of that terrifying word that only existed in legends in the past.
Looking at Ma Zhilong's miserable corpse in front of them, except for worms... they couldn't think of anything else that could silently cut a person's body into pieces in just two minutes. Thinking of this, even though the surrounding environment was humid and hot, At this moment, the three people, whose faces were as white as paper, felt a chill that penetrated their bones.
Could it be...
Could it be that the woman in the pink skirt that few people have ever seen before is a wolf? ?
"Liu, Mr. Liu, what...what should we do?"
Swallowing furiously, suppressing fear, he glanced at the broken corpses on the ground. On his right, Zhang Qifeng, whose limbs were still trembling, finally came to his senses and immediately asked Liu Dong in a stuttering tone.
Obviously, the pockmarked man was frightened half to death. He was frightened out of his mind by a series of strange encounters such as corpses in the forest, no signal, and weird lost. In addition, Ma Zhilong fell apart inexplicably. All these things caused him to lose control. He didn't know what to do for a while. good.
It's a pity that Liu Dong didn't answer and ignored him. At this moment, he was still staring at Ma Zhilong's corpse in a daze, turning a deaf ear to everything around him. Seeing Liu Dong's appearance, Zhang Qifeng hurriedly turned his face to the side and looked at others, staring at Zhang Zhiyong.
Maybe his mental quality is slightly stronger. Although Zhang Zhiyong's condition is not much better than Liu Dong's, at least he was not frightened and was not in a sluggish state for a long time. He heard Zhang Qifeng ask, but what can he do? Facing the tragic death of his comrade, strictly speaking, he was as confused as Liu Dong and Zhang Qifeng, so naturally, after hearing Zhang Qifeng's question, the man could only answer truthfully according to the current situation: "What else can I do? Run away! I want to." There is a way to get out of this forest!"
"Yes, yes! Let's go, let's go... It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's leave quickly!"
Zhang Zhiyong's words were like enlightenment, clarifying Zhang Qifeng's thinking and pointing out the goal. Sure enough, with the goal, the rest will be simple. There is no need to remind again or any prompts. He must endure the fear and the smell of blood. They nodded, looked at each other, grabbed Liu Dong from the left and the right, and immediately turned around and ran away. The three of them ran back on the same route again, fleeing in a panic towards the so-called exit in their memory.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.
………
The terrain of Yunnan Province is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, descending in a ladder-like manner from north to south. It is a mountainous plateau terrain. The mountainous area accounts for 88% of the total area of the province. The terrain is dominated by the Yuanjiang Valley and the southern section of the Yunling Mountains. The valley is the boundary and is divided into two major terrain areas: East Yunnan and Central Yunnan Plateau, which are part of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. They are characterized by gentle undulating low mountains and round hills. In the west, there are alternating high mountains and canyons with steep terrain, forming a strange and majestic landscape. Yunnan Province has mountainous glacial landforms and spans six major river systems: the Yangtze River, Pearl River, Yuanjiang River, Lancang River, Nujiang River and Daying River. The climate is basically subtropical and tropical monsoon climate.
It is hot, humid, and the environment is dark. Although there is no denying that the weather today is good, due to the influence of mountain fog and dense forests, the fog still blocks the sun to a certain extent and affects the environment.
It is true that the above description is unadulterated, but unfortunately it still cannot summarize the actual situation of the mountains.
Because the land is in a subtropical region, it is exposed to sunlight for a longer period of time, and the day is slightly longer than in the north. However, even so, it will eventually get dark. As time continues to pass, and as the sun gradually sets in the west, noon is already over. The afternoon came to an end, and only a trace of the setting sun remained in the distance, between the shadows of the mountains.
It's evening, and it's going to be dark soon.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
After a period of uncontrollable breathing due to fatigue, he took out his mobile phone and stared at the screen. Finally, Zhang Zhiyong began to sigh, and while sighing, he looked up at the sky.
Double-blocked by heavy fog and trees, although the sun could not be seen, one could easily tell what time it was and what the current situation was just by looking at the increasingly dim surrounding environment.
It's evening and it's getting dark.
What does this mean? What does it mean?
It would be even more difficult for representatives to leave this place at night when visibility is unclear.
This means that several people have been trapped in the woods for an entire day!
Of course, they still couldn't go out even during the day.
After thinking about all this, he glanced at Zhang Qifeng and Liu Dong who were sitting on the ground and resting next to him. At this moment, Zhang Zhiyong began to wail in his heart and became pessimistic. Driven by the fear that had been surrounding him for a long time, he acted like a patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder. He fiddled with his cell phone again, lowering his head and operating it like crazy, as if this was the only way to create a miracle, and then dialed the phone for help at a certain moment.
Yes, the three of them walked and escaped for a long time. They spent a whole day groping in this strange and secluded forest. During the walk, the three of them took out their mobile phones and watched it repeatedly, hoping that the signal would be restored and they would seek help from the outside world. Unfortunately, To the disappointment of the three people...
No matter how many times I watch or call, the end result is still no signal.
After another futile experiment, Zhang Zhiyong finally took back his cell phone and gave up playing with it. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his slightly trembling hands subconsciously touched his stomach. Yes, he was tired and hungry now. After all, after a long day The continuous walking consumes a lot of physical energy. Not only him, but Liu Dong and Zhang Qifeng beside him are also hungry and tired.
"Zhiyong, Mr. Liu, what should we do now? I'm so hungry. Do you two have anything to eat?"
Under the tree, looking at the increasingly gloomy sky, Zhang Qifeng looked pessimistic. He basically gave up hope on whether he could escape from the woods. Instead, he faced reality and began to worry about food. After all, everyone only had one breakfast today. In the end, after seeing the pile of broken corpses, he collectively vomited everything. In addition, he ran around in the forest for nearly a day. It is conceivable that he is lying when he says he is not hungry. With hunger, he listens to the growling in his lower abdomen. Zhang Qifeng started shouting and talking about the food issue with the other two people.
Seeing Zhang Qifeng asking about food, sure enough, since they were also very hungry, Liu Dong and Zhang Zhiyong subconsciously reached into their pockets to search without asking any more questions. Unexpectedly, they searched for a long time, but the final result was disappointing to several people. Liu Dong except his wallet and There was nothing edible except for his mobile phone, so Zhang Zhiyong dug out a few extra pieces of chewing gum, but what was the use? What's the point? All the packages containing the picnic ingredients were put on the bus. After groping for a long time and finding nothing, the three of them lamented.
"Hey, I have some pieces of chewing gum here, do you want to eat them?"
Staring at the 'Green Arrow' handed over by Zhang Zhiyong, Zhang Qifeng's mouth twitched with despair on his face, but he finally took it, chewed greedily while kissing him helplessly and sighed: "It's over, we're done, let's not mention Ma Zhilong. Will the 'thing' we killed come looking for us? Given our current situation, if we remain trapped here and continue like this, it won't be long before a few of us will starve to death."
"It's a pity that I, Zhang Qifeng, am going to die in this barren mountain at such a young age. I'm not willing to give in. I'm so damn unwilling to give in. If I had known this, I should have forced Meng Fei on me, and then Fang Min! I'm going to die anyway. Oh, what the hell am I still afraid of?"
As mentioned above, the pockmarked man was desperate, and when he believed that he was going to die, he began to mutter to himself. In this way, he poured out words that he had never dared to say in the past. He muttered frequently and repeatedly, which made Liu Dong feel heartbroken. He felt chilly, followed by pessimism, worried about his personal future and whether he would starve to death. As the saying goes, fear is contagious. Under the influence of these two people, on one side, Zhang Zhiyong was still basically calm. He was becoming less and less calm, and as he listened to his thoughts in his ears, he was probably reminded by Zhang Qifeng's words. In despair, the man suddenly thought about something, and then he began to regret it, and he clenched his teeth in regret. , clenched his fists.
What do you regret? Or did he figure it out?
The answer is simple, that is, although he doesn't know why the three of them couldn't get out of the woods or why Ma Zhilong died, he does know the root cause and who is the root cause of his current situation.
Fang Min!
That stinky woman, that hateful woman who has always been hypocritical, who always relies on the support of the chairman and does not take herself or anyone else seriously, if Fang Min hadn't dragged Meng Fei out of the car for convenience, then what happened next would never have happened. A series of events, as long as they parked the car, no one would have entered the woods. If they had not entered the woods, the old horse would not have died, and he would not have been trapped here with no way out. If he had known this result, he should not have stopped the car in the first place, and all of this The root cause of everything lies with Fang Min. Yes, it was that hateful woman who caused him to fall into a desperate situation and be trapped in the forest.
(Fang Min, stinky bitch! It’s all your fault that I’ve fallen into this situation!)
Human beings are difficult to understand creatures, and their mental states often change drastically depending on the environment. In addition, only humans will vent their complaints and blame others in difficult situations.
Psychology calls it subconscious self-preservation, and philosophy calls it the result of human nature.
It may be true to understand, and it may be correct to complain, but is it useful? Does it make sense?
Complaining cannot solve the problem, nor can shirking responsibility help a few people get out of their current predicament. Apart from being gradually swallowed up by anger, all kinds of mentality are of no benefit.
For a time, under the influence of the two people around him and the pessimistic atmosphere, Zhang Zhiyong gradually became depressed and crazy, and his hatred for Fang Min became more intense.
Of course, despair is despair, and complaints are complaints. There is no use thinking about these now. Just as Zhang Qifeng said just now, if they don't get out of the woods as soon as possible, even if the 'thing' that killed Ma Zhilong doesn't come to them, they will never He will eventually starve to death in this mountain wilderness.
Before I knew it, the sky had turned completely dark.
However……
Perhaps it is because of the old saying that a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. Strangely enough, just when Zhang Qifeng, Liu Dong and Zhang Zhiyong were thinking wildly, as night fell and the waning moon rose, they glanced blindly, Inadvertently, several people discovered something. When they looked to the right, they saw a bright light in the distance.
Not a single light, but a swath of light!
"Huh? That's..."
Wow.
Seeing this, the three of them were stunned, and immediately stood up and looked around. They all stared at the bright light in the distance with wide eyes, looking at the dense yellow light.
Because the slope of the location is relatively high, and it is easy to see, as far as the eye can see, if you look at the position of the light, you can see that the light is not too close. Visually, the distance between the two sides is about a kilometer. Although the distance is far, but after a closer look, several people are still the same. For a moment, I concluded that all the bright lights in the distance were lights!
Lights are bright electric lights. Since there are many electric lights, combined with the saying that many villages and towns in Yunnan are built in the mountains...
Wouldn't that mean that the light in the distance...
It's most likely a village!
