Chapter 9 Missing
The cabinet was afraid that Meng Zhao would encounter danger, so I turned around and went back to the camp. I wanted to leave him behind and continue to go to the cave, but in the end I decided to confirm that there was no danger around me before talking about it. So I gritted my teeth and followed the cabinet back to the camp.
Meng Zhao is worthy of being a girl from Northeast China, but unexpectedly did not show panic at this time. After all, the tour guide has done it for many years, and she has experienced many things that tourists have lost. She did not show anxiety, but instead comforted Zhang Yuan, who was somewhat out of control, with a familiarity.
Seeing this, I felt relieved, so I arranged a cabinet to accompany Meng Zhao in the camp to continue to comfort Zhang Yuan and Arui, who were shocked, and spread their spiritual eyes and searched for movements of five or six kilometers in a radius.
Sure enough, except for the hole in the eye that a few young people found, there seemed to be nothing unusual on the surface.
From the perspective of time, if Dabao and Mengmeng were just walking by their feet, they would not be able to get out of the scope of my careful search in this little time, right? In this way, the possibility of hiding is only that hole.
Thinking of this, I first used the Fengyinxin torch to double the campfire, and then told the cabinet and Meng Zhao, stayed in the camp and waited for me to come back. Then I stood up, checked the equipment in my backpack, and crawled straight towards the black hole more than 500 meters above the top.
I cut off the thorns with my hands and feet, and finally came to the hole that had covered most of the thatch, but there was a steady sound of footsteps behind me. I turned my head alertly, but saw Sharon, who had already walked out of the grass behind me.
"Let me go with you." The first sentence after Sharon appeared after he spoke quickly turned out to show his intention.
"Okay." I thought about it and agreed. I just saw her in the camp as if she was thinking, and probably had her own plans. Fang Zheng saw the skills of this foreign girl, so it should be no problem to protect herself, so I will keep her by my side for the time being, so I can take care of her.
Thinking of this, I continued to turn the pathfinder, adjust the focal length, and lowered my head to penetrate the wide and narrow cave. I guess even my burly standard body was struggling to bend down, and the tall and toned Sharon behind me should be suppressed even more and more.
Fortunately, after walking along the cave for more than 30 meters, the hole went straight to the ground, which made us feel much more relaxed when we went down. Although there was no protection of a climbing rope, there were many holes on the stone walls of the cave for footing, so it was not too much effort to descend.
After a while, it settled about fifty meters away. Sharon and I finally arrived at a hollow stone chamber located in the belly of the mountain. We looked around with a flashlight and immediately saw that it was a stone chamber the size of a small conference room. There seemed to be a well-connected passage on the surrounding stone walls, but the black and black land did not know where it led.
"What is that?"
Just as I was choosing phobia, I was still struggling with whether to choose a channel to sneak into the investigation. The careful Sharon had already discovered something while traversing the things in the stone room.
When they walked closer to her, the flashlight of the two of them focused and finally saw the two mummies in a clump.
My God! Judging from the brand new couple watches, are these two nirvana mummies the missing Dabao and Mengmeng?!
"Are the two lost?" Sharon's eyes also stared at the sports watches, and his ears were alert to the movements around him. Obviously, if the guy who was killed by the two young couple who avoided everyone's affectionateness was still there, we would be in danger now.
"That's right." My thoughts coincided with Sharon. While answering her, I also spread my mind and carefully sensed the situation in the cave. From the aura of the psychic pupil, I learned that the depth of the cave was particularly unfathomable. Moreover, the interior was well connected, and there was probably more than one exit.
"Let's go. Choose the whole way first." Sharon is an action-oriented person, so he naturally doesn't want to continue wasting time here.
What makes me even more concerned is that the dead Dabao and Mengmeng's expressions are exaggerated and not afraid, and they don't look like they have come here by themselves. After all, in such a gloomy and terrifying environment, even the thirsty person is probably not likely to be high.
"They died of evil." I thought about it and teased Sharon, "We Chinese are so conservative, so how could you foreigners dare to come here to be intimate?" As I said that, I used the essentials of the records in the "Pulse Classic" I read in Jin Siniang's study to gently call out the wrists of two mummies.
"Can a dead person even cause pulse?" Although the mother of a professor at Sharon University is a Chinese expert, she probably has never taught Sharon that she can still distinguish dead people from traditional Chinese medicine.
"Of course it's not about reading the pulse. I just inferred the cause of their death from the movement of qi." In fact, this hand "named the dead man's hand" is a folk remedy recorded in the unique skills of Jin Si Niang's family. The principle is to identify the cause of death of others based on the conflict between the five qi on the epidermis and distinguish the cause of death.
While speaking, I pressed my hands on the three parts of the wrists of the two people, and I felt it: I saw that there was a clear burst of lung metal on both people, and it should be that I died of the odor of the lungs.
In simple terms, it is a death from "sorrow".
Just as I was planning to further investigate the bodies of the two, hoping to find more evidence, I suddenly smelled the strange fragrance of camellia in my nose. It was strange that the fragrance of flowers immediately became astringent and bitter as soon as I entered my nose, which made me choked and almost fainted on the ground.
When I recovered, my mood became very depressed. I was feeling inexplicably, and Sharon had already slapped his shoulder hard.
"Are you okay?"
"I, I'm fine." She slapped Jianjing acupoint, and my breath, which had just become solemn, suddenly became refreshed again. After my mind was awake, I couldn't help but secretly amaze Sharon, who was still vigilant with heroism.
This foreign girl is not simple. Even my body, whose three souls are integrated (although it is relied on the coupling force of the reincarnation mirror), was instantly caught in this strange "smelling fear of smelly lungs". Why is this guy okay?
Perhaps seeing my doubts, Sharon shrugged and pointed out my doubts in one sentence.
"I majored in psychology in college, and the elective course I was most interested in was hypnosis. When I heard your explanation just now, I was wondering whether this mechanism of evil magic is a kind of hypnosis? So, when I felt something strange, I pinched myself hard..."
Well. Pain is indeed a simple and crude way to deal with evil deeds. As long as the evil magic is not completed, the biological instinct caused by pain can indeed stimulate the control of the seven souls by soul power.
Unexpectedly, Eastern and Western cultures have many common ground on these evil ways.
Thinking about it, I hurriedly sacrificed my spiritual eyes and followed the smell of camellia that I had just sucked in, and followed the direction of the fragrance floating--
Not good! Following the well-connected cave, I suddenly discovered that the strange fragrance seemed to be moving around from another exit towards our sleeping camp!
"Hurry up, go back first! That ghost guy is going to find them!"
When Sharon heard my exclamation, he was stunned for a second, then he adjusted his posture quickly, retreated back to the hole that had come down before, held the flashlight in his mouth, and exerted force with his arms, and quickly crawled towards the hole.
To be honest, I didn't expect her reaction and execution to be so strong. Without having time to think too much, I followed her like she did, climbed to the entrance of the cave, and ran to the camp along the way.
"Strange!" Along the way, I had already opened my mind. But I could not find the trace of the strange fragrance under the pupils of the spiritual energy. Could it be that I was wrong in my perception?
It's impossible! My mind was inspired by Linda in Likunlun. The range and acuity of the "Psychic Eyes" had been enhanced several times. It would be unlikely to lose it in this blink of an eye.
However, the scene in front of me repeatedly reminded me of the contradiction between judgment and reality: After all, the cabinet, Meng Zhao, Zhang Yuan, Arui, and the bonfire I burned with myself were all staying there!
Just when I was at a loss and felt that the clues were broken, I heard the trembling cry of Zhang Yuan, who was rushing into the happy Arry's arms from far to near in the camp.
"What? She said she saw her roommate who had disappeared a few years ago?" Seeing me back, the cabinet immediately reported to me a message that he and Meng Zhao had pried out from the hesitant Zhang Yuan.
It turned out that after Sharon and I left, Zhang Yuan, who was familiar with Meng Zhao, finally inadvertently talked about the female student Jiang Jiao who disappeared two years ago.
Jiang Jiao is Dabao's ex-girlfriend. The two began dating when they entered school for military training a few years ago. At that time, Jiang Jiao was attracted by Dabao, who had been a soldier and easily won the title of "Excellent Student", and became his girlfriend.
Later, several people invited him to visit Cangshan during the National Day holiday, but Jiang Jiao disappeared. For this reason, the head teacher and counselor were punished. Later, after half a year, Dabao dated Jiang Jiao and Zhang Yuan's roommate Mengmeng to this day.
It sounds a bit like the resentful Jiang Jiao came back to take her life. But the question is, these people did not offend her, why? With this question, I told them about the discovery of Dabao and Mengmeng's corpses just now in the cave, while observing their expressions quietly.
When Zhang Yuan heard the news of Dabao and his two deaths, she immediately fell to the ground with a pale face and kept chattering: "She is back, it's really her back! She is back and seeking her life!"
After letting Meng Zhao and Ari help Zhang Yuan up and sit down in a straightforward manner, I finally asked the reason why Zhang Yuan was so panicked.
"After entering the mountain, I, I actually received a text message from Jiang Jiao..." When Zhang Yuan said this, her face was filled with great fear, as if she had made a great determination, and she said this knot hidden in her heart.
"Take it out and show it to us." Sharon was deeply educated in Western culture and was naturally a pragmatist who put evidence first.
"SMS, I deleted the text message."
Damn, then you can't confirm your statement. Not only me, but the few people here must have the same idea when they hear her words.
"But, not only I received it. Mengmeng, Mengmeng also received it! But she didn't take it to heart, saying it was someone else's prank..." Zhang Yuan's next words immediately made us nervous.
Where is Mengmeng's mobile phone? I quickly recalled it. When I was investigating Dabao and Mengmeng's mummy with Sharon, although I saw some clothes, I didn't seem to see any mobile phone.
When the cabinet saw me thinking, it was naturally understandable. He pulled Arui and got into the tent where Mengmeng had slept before. After some trouble, he found a cute white X-fruit mobile phone.
After letting Arui accompany Zhang Yuan to unlock his phone, he opened the text message and we saw a message with the sender "Jiang Jiao", which said, "Why don't you answer me?"
Just as we wanted to further interpret the profound meaning behind this resentful question, Zhang Yuan, who was sitting at us, became distorted due to fear.
But in the night sky, she could clearly hear her trembling voice-
"Here, she's here, Jiang Jiao!"
