My Beauty Variety: Starting from Banshee Town

A gust of mountain wind blew by, causing the trees to sway slightly.

The heat from the sun on the highway just now was gone, and I felt much more energetic.

Ethan saw a signboard with several broken wooden boards nailed up on the side of the road, and he put down the map in his hand.

"This road is not shown on the map. There is a gas station ahead. How about we ask for directions."

"OK."

Dalia nodded and drove forward according to the directions of the road signs.

Soon, they came to a dilapidated gas station. In the open space outside the gas station, there were more than a dozen cars of various types parked, with for-sale papers stuck inside the cars.

The boss here is really business-savvy. He sells second-hand cars in a place where no one can poop.

Ethan took a look at the prices and found that they were all set relatively low. If they were not guaranteed, someone would come and buy them.

Dahlia slowed down the car and drove into the gas station.

Inside the gas station is an old wooden house with dozens of license plates nailed to the wall, giving it an alternative aesthetic.

Ethan opened the car door, and melodious country music came from the wooden house.

At the door of the wooden house, a man was sleeping on a deck chair, with a straw hat covering his face and a bottle of beer next to him.

"Good afternoon." Ethan greeted.

When there was no response, Ethan took two more steps forward, waved away a few flying flies, and increased the volume.

"Good afternoon, sir. Excuse me."

After shouting several times, the man lying on the chair finally made some movement. He reached out and took off his straw hat and looked at Ethan with squinted eyes.

A white man with dry hair and dirty hair was Ethan's first impression of him.

The wrinkles on his face are accumulated, and he is not young, and the whole person looks dry and thin.

"I'm very sorry to disturb your rest. Can I ask for directions?" Ethan raised the map in his hand.

The straw hat man picked up the beer and took a sip, then asked vaguely:

"Where are you going?"

Ethan noticed that there were only a few teeth left in this guy's mouth. When he drank, the beer slid down his neck which was covered in dirt. The clothes on his body had not been washed for a long time.

It reminded him of Hood's cellmate Leonard. When the two met for the first time, Leonard left a deep impression on him.

However, Leonard was forced and helpless. The man in front of him should be like this by nature.

But Ethan didn't care. He had been a town policeman for a long time and had encountered all kinds of people. He walked up to the man and opened the map in his hand.

"We were going to this place, but there was an accident on the highway, so we had to find a way around it."

Ethan clicked on the map with his hand, "Do you know where to go around?"

The man in the straw hat first glanced at Ethan, who was wearing canvas shoes, jeans, and a white T-shirt. He looked harmless.

At this time, Dalia also stepped out of the car, her long wheat-colored legs looking full of youthful vitality.

The man in the straw hat swallowed without leaving a trace, and then took the map with his hand covered in engine oil.

After looking at it for a while, he returned the map to Ethan and said vaguely:

"Go straight along the road. After half an hour, there is a fork in the road."

“Watch the signs for Bear Mountain Road.”

Ethan took back the map, thanked him, and returned to the car with Daria.

"Do you think he is right?"

Dalia unfolded the map to confirm the direction and nodded, "The direction is right. We often ask locals for directions when we go camping."

"Okay, let's keep going."

The Chevrolet SUV turned around in a circle, drove out of the gas station, and continued to move forward.

The man in the straw hat looked at the cars going away, yawned, picked up the straw hat on his lap and covered his face.

After driving for less than half an hour, I saw a fork in the road.

Dalia glanced at the road sign, followed it with her hands, and drove onto Xiongshan Road.

Because she had just rested for a while on the highway, Dalia was very energetic at this time. She turned up the volume of the radio, and the two of them started humming along with the music.

After a while, the sound of the radio weakened, became stuttering, and finally turned into blind tone.

Ethan tapped the radio a few times, and Dalia stopped him with a smile.

"It seems that you have never been camping in the mountains. It is normal to have no signal here. If you don't believe me, check your phone."

Ethan took out his cell phone, and sure enough, it was out of service.

"Didn't I tell you? You are isolated from the world and no one can contact you." Dalia leaned forward and opened the passenger compartment. "There is a CD in it, just put the CD in."

"careful."

A crushed squirrel body appeared on the road ahead. It must have been hit not long ago, and there were still blood stains on the ground.

At Ethan's reminder, she quickly turned the steering wheel to avoid the animal carcasses.

"Don't worry, I'm in control."

Dalia patted her chest and glanced at Ethan, "A horror movie, right?"

She deliberately frightened Ethan and said: "Weird gas station old man, animal carcasses on the road."

"There are still deserted roads. Classic horror movie elements are all present. Be careful that there will be a scary ogre coming to you tonight."

"You want to scare me?"

Ethan put the disc in his hand into the car CD player, smiled and said to Dalia:

"Don't forget my identity. Do you want me to tell you about a serial perverted murderer?"

"Shet, no."

Dalia was instantly startled and quickly refused.

The story of the scary ogre is fictional in the movie, but what Ethan said happened in real life, and she didn’t want to be unable to sleep tonight.

As the two played, the Chevrolet rolled up the fallen leaves on the ground and drove quickly.

After driving forward for a long time, the surrounding woods became taller and taller, and there were many big trees surrounded by people.

There should not be many people walking on this road. The middle position is surrounded by thick fallen leaves, and the scenery is quite good.

"Hey, look."

Hearing Dalia's shout, Ethan looked forward and saw a white station wagon parked on the road ahead.

Various camping equipment was also tied to the roof of the car, and several mountain bikes were mounted on it.

Next to the car, a girl wearing white casual trousers and a blue vest was jumping vigorously.

She kept waving her hands at Ethan and the others, and the little white rabbit was ready to come out.

Dalia raised the corners of her mouth, smiled and said to Ethan:

"Hey, this is your type."

Ethan shrugged "Let's see what happens."

"no problem."

Dahlia let go of the accelerator, stepped on the brakes, and the car slowed down.

At this time, there was a loud bang and the vehicle shook violently.

Dalia was instantly frightened. She grabbed the steering wheel hard, but the Chevrolet SUV still rushed towards the white station wagon next to it.

She could only slam on the brakes, but the inertia still caused the Chevrolet to hit hard.

Ethan grabbed the front armrest of the car roof with one hand and held Dalia down with the other hand.

"boom."

There was another loud noise, the two cars collided, and the front windshield shattered instantly.

Dalia looked at the airbag that exploded in front of her in shock. Fortunately, the car had slowed down just now, otherwise, she really didn't know what would happen after the collision.

Ethan looked at the lifted hood, steam was rising, and he let out a heavy breath.

"Hey, are you guys okay?"

The girl in the blue vest just now slapped the car window and looked at them worriedly.
