Chapter 5 Chapter 4 Going for the Best

I came to the county where Qinglian Temple is located and searched for a long time but couldn’t find this damn broken Taoist temple. I thought it would be a waste of time this time. Fortunately, when we were eating in the vegetarian restaurant, Boss Ding told us the address of the Taoist temple.When we were about to go to the Taoist temple to find Xue Chufan immediately, Boss Ding stopped us and said that it was difficult to find the Taoist temple at night, so we had to wait until tomorrow. When I was looking for a hotel to stay overnight, I jokingly said to Zhen Zhen: "Why don't we only need one room, which will not only save money, but also facilitate mutual care."

She blushed immediately when she heard the words, and scolded shyly: "Who wants to share a room with you pervert? If you want to find someone to sleep with you, go to that woman from yesterday." She was still concerned about Ruan Jing's affairs , which proves that she has my place in her heart. The next morning, Zhenzhen came to my room and knocked on the door before dawn, pulling me back from my dream to reality.This crazy girl doesn't mind getting up early by herself, but she actually wants me to be as early as her, and won't let others go to bed later.There's no other way, since she's already woken up, it's better to go to that broken Taoist temple earlier.

Wulian Mountain is not difficult to find. We drove to the foot of the mountain in ten minutes according to the route Boss Ding said.Although the east has turned pale, the sun has not climbed up from below the horizon like a lazy man lying in bed.I thought the sky was starting to light up, and it shouldn't be difficult to find the Qinglian Temple, so I walked up the mountain with Zhenzhen.However, it was much more difficult to find this broken Taoist temple than I imagined. The forest in Wulian Mountain is very lush, and the vision is relatively clear at the bottom of the mountain, but after going up the mountain, because the dense forest blocks most of the light, and the fog rises, the vision is very blurred, and there is nothing even ten meters away. Can see clearly.Although the view is not good, we have already gone up the mountain, and we don't want to run again.So I decided to try my luck and look for it first. Anyway, the vision will become clearer later.

However, my thinking seems too naive, because as time goes by, the fog not only does not dissipate, but it is getting thicker and thicker, and there is no sign of dissipating at all.It is not a pleasant thing to be in the foggy mountain forest, because in the dense fog, the surrounding trees become blurred shadows, like a group of monsters with teeth and claws.It doesn't feel good to be surrounded by countless monsters, even Zhen Zhen, who has always been aggressive, leans towards me unconsciously.Of course, I was not much better, and I also leaned towards her, and the two walked side by side without knowing it.I thought it was a good idea at first, but soon I didn't think so.

"Oh!" When I walked by a big tree, I was hit on the head, presumably because I got too close and was hit by Zhen Zhen.However, when I asked her why she hit me, she showed an inexplicable expression: "You are crazy, how could I hit you!" It's strange, there are only two of us here, who would it be if she didn't hit me ? Although I found it inexplicable, I didn't care too much, and continued to search for the damn Qinglian Temple in the misty mountains and forests with her.However, before we had gone far, Zhen Zhen suddenly screamed and kicked me.I didn't know what kind of nerves she was getting, so I asked nonchalantly, "You have nothing to do to kick me!"

She replied confidently: "Who told you to touch my butt!" I didn't touch her butt, but why would she wrong me somehow?Although she usually has a hot temper, she won't be unreasonable. Someone should really touch her ass, and she kicks me, but it's just the two of us here!I suddenly felt a chill, thinking that there might be ghosts here? When I told Zhen Zhen what was in my heart, her face immediately turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Are you trying to scare me?" "Why did I scare you, I really didn't touch you just now, and I didn't know who hit me on the head before, huh..." Before I finished speaking, I felt my trouser pocket being pulled out, subconsciously I checked my trouser pocket and found that my wallet was gone.So I looked back quickly, but I didn't see anything.

"Look there!" Zhen Zhen pointed to a big tree beside me, I looked there, and saw a tiny black shadow running away into the distance. Because the fog was too thick, it was difficult to see what it was, so I chased after it, trying to see what it was at a close distance, and even dared to steal the policeman's wallet.However, I was knocked down by the dead branches on the ground without running a few steps. "Wait for me!" I heard Zhen Zhen's cry, she didn't seem to notice that I had stumbled, she passed me, and ran forward like an arrow.I think she was probably terrified.

I got up and told her not to run around, or else it would be troublesome to run away with me.However, I called her several times, but she didn't answer, as if she really got lost.I quickly took out my mobile phone to call her, but I couldn't get through. I looked at the screen of the mobile phone and found that there was no signal at all.This time I really ran into big trouble, there seemed to be some strange things in this forest, and now I was separated from Zhen Zhen again, I really don't know what to do. It's definitely not a good idea to stay in this ghost place, but I can't leave Zhenzhen alone, so I had to call her name while walking.But after shouting for a long time, I didn't hear the crazy girl reply. I think she must have run away a long way.When I was worrying, my ears were suddenly pulled, and I jumped aside in a natural reaction. This time, I saw a small black shadow flashing by on the big tree beside me.Longevity God, I must have met a tree spirit!

I don't know if it was because of the thick fog, but I felt a chill again, and felt that the place was spooky, so I couldn't help shivering.Zhen Zhen has a good fist and kick, so there shouldn't be any major problems. I'd better escape from this ghost place first. However, it seems that it is not easy to leave this mountain forest, because the fog is so thick that I can't tell the direction at all.Moreover, the vision is quite blurred, and there are many dead branches and leaves on the ground, so if you are not careful, you will trip.What's even more frightening is that the entrepreneur who is suspected to be a dryad always bites me, and often suddenly appears on the big tree next to me, knocking my head for a while, and pulling my ears for a while.But when I turned my head, it flashed and I didn't know where it went.

Damn it, the dryad seems to treat me like a toy, and comes to play tricks on me from time to time.But it's okay, it doesn't seem to be a threat to me, at least I haven't been injured so far.However, just when I thought that my life was not threatened, there was a "bang", and my eyes suddenly went dark. The pain from my forehead made me feel dizzy, and I couldn't help squatting down.I reached out and wiped my forehead, and the whole palm was covered with blood.And on the ground in front of me, I touched a small stone stained with blood. I think it was the one that greeted my forehead just now.It seems that the dryad is no longer satisfied with knocking on the head and pulling ears, it wants to play something more exciting, maybe it even wants to kill me!

The current situation is not optimistic, the terrain here is very complicated, and the vision is extremely blurred by the thick fog, let alone escape from this ghostly place, I can't even see what the damn tree spirit looks like.Just when I was worried about what the dryad would do to me next, a hazy figure appeared in front of me. Strictly speaking, it wasn't a human figure, because I didn't see its head, nor its feet and palms.The shadow was like a robe that had been hung to dry, hanging from a tree by a rope about two fingers thick.Seeing a robe hanging on a tree in this deep mountain and old forest is enough to make people feel strange, but this is not the point. What scares me the most is that the robe can move and is waving at me.It seems that this time I didn't meet a tree spirit or something, but a ghost! "Wow!" I yelled and ran back immediately, but I tripped over a dead branch on the ground before I ran very far. In order to survive, I still got up and ran, but I didn't run very far and tripped again.I just stumbled and ran for a while. Although I was hurt all over, I didn't dare to stop.Because that scary robe has been chasing me, whenever I turn around I can see it floating from one tree to another, anyway it is always about ten meters behind me, so I can barely see it , but it is not clear.However, the less you can see, the more frightening it is.What's more terrible is that it will occasionally throw me a small stone, and every time it can hit the back of my head with a lot of force.I'm terrified of being thrown through the head next time. I was a little panicked by being chased by the horrible robe, and ran with a "bang" before being knocked down by something in front of me.I thought I'd hit a tree, but I felt something was wrong because I hit something softer than a tree trunk.I think what I bumped into was probably a human being, and a woman at that.Sure enough, I soon heard Zhen Zhen's voice: "Why don't you have eyes!" "Now that the fog is so thick, it's useless to grow a few more eyes, and I'm still being chased by ghosts." Although I felt helpless, I was also relieved to have finally found a savior.At least she was strong enough to be around, though she was more timid than I was when it came to ghosts. "Where is the ghost, don't talk nonsense." She didn't stand up, but quickly crawled on the ground a few times and leaned towards me. "It's right behind me, if you don't believe me, look for yourself..." I pointed behind me, "Hey, that's weird, why did it disappear all of a sudden? It was still biting me just now!" "You're trying to scare me again, I think you're the ghost!" Zhen Zhen squeezed my arm hard as she spoke, tears were about to fall from the pain. "Oh, I really didn't lie to you! Don't you see that my head is covered with blood, it's almost bleeding." I pointed to the blood on my forehead to show her. "Bah! You croak when you bleed so little, how dare you call yourself a policeman!" Although she said so, she tore off one of my sleeves, and was going to help me bandage the wound on my forehead to prevent the blood from gushing out . Zhenzhen first tore my sleeves into cloth strips, and then bandaged my wounds. The technique was quite skillful, probably because she often went to help Uncle Xia's clinic, and it was done in a short while.After wrapping it up, she looked at me and kept giggling. I asked her what she was laughing at, and she laughed for a long time before choking out a sentence: "You look like an Indian now. Hahaha..." I think she did it on purpose Wrap me in an ugly way, but there is no way, it is good enough to stop the bleeding in this deep mountain and old forest. After rendezvousing with Zhen Zhen by accident, nothing strange appeared, and the sun had risen, and the fog gradually dissipated, but we were still lost.There is no "road" in this mountain forest at all, we can only rely on the sun to identify the direction to go to the top of the mountain.But after walking for a long time, I couldn't reach the top of the mountain. Although we kept walking towards the top of the mountain, I felt that we were just going around in circles.Because I always feel that the scene in front of me seems to have been seen not long ago, but I can't find the mark I just left. "Are we always going around in circles?" At noon, Zhen Zhen finally couldn't help asking me. "You also found out, I think we have encountered a ghost hitting the wall." I smiled helplessly. Zhen Zhen's face turned cold, and she leaned closer to me unconsciously: "Is there really such a thing?" "You will meet now." I replied angrily. Her face was getting paler and she looked frightened.This crazy girl usually looks like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, but when faced with illusory ghosts and ghosts, she is more afraid than anyone else.It's noon now, and although the current situation is rather weird, I'm not as scared as she is, so I might as well play tricks on her.Thinking of this, I said to her with a serious face: "It seems that we are in big trouble this time, and we may have been trapped in this mountain forest forever." "I've been trapped here..." Her face was as white as snow, and her body was still trembling slightly. I purposely muttered: "Well, it's okay now, at least those things won't be too blatant in broad daylight, and it's hard to say at night..." At this point, Zhenzhen suddenly yelled out "Wow", unexpectedly She also jumped on me and hugged me tightly, her plump breasts pressed firmly on my chest, making me a little out of breath. I thought I could win this time, so I stroked her back and whispered softly in her ear: "I am here, don't be afraid, I will protect you." But she said to me in a trembling voice: " There's a lot of... those 'things' behind you..." Hearing what she said, I immediately trembled all over my body. I wanted to look back to see what frightened her, but it seemed that there was no need to look back, because as soon as I raised my head, I found that there were many people in the surrounding trees. There are at least twenty or thirty black shadows that I can see. Although it is now at noon, because the forest in the mountain forest is very lush, the branches and leaves block most of the sunlight, so it is still very dark, so I can't see what it is, I can only see groups of black shadows staying on the branches, It seems to be the dryad that attacked me this morning.What's even more frightening is that although they couldn't see what the dryads looked like, they could see their hostile eyes.It is not a comfortable thing to be surrounded by twenty or thirty eyes, not to mention that they may attack us at any time. "What should I do now?" Zhen Zhen trembled in my arms.Although I didn't know what to do, at this moment I felt that I should show a little heroism and comfort her calmly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here! I've already figured out a way." "Really, then what shall we do?" Zhen Zhen suddenly turned from surprise to joy, but unfortunately my method might disappoint her: "Do you know which is the most powerful strategy in "Thirty-Six Strategies"?" "have no idea." "It's the last measure of 'walking is the best'!" After saying that, I dragged Zhen Zhen away like a madman, rushing out of the tree spirit's encirclement.Our actions seemed to have alarmed those dryads, a sharp "squeak" came from behind, and at the same time, countless small stones fell on us like a torrential rain...
