I miss you

When Zhou Jiayu heard Meng Yangtian's words, his first reaction was that he was lying to himself.Unexpectedly, Meng Yangtian had already guessed what Zhou Jiayu was thinking, saying that he had sent Zhou Jiayu a video file, and asked Zhou Jiayu to watch it before chatting with him.

Zhou Jiayu wanted to say something more, but Meng Yangtian hung up the phone.

The next moment, the phone made a ding-dong, and Meng Yang naively sent Zhou Jiayu a website address.Zhou Jiayu stared at the website for a long time, finally got up from the bed and turned on the computer.

Typing the keyboard with difficulty with his frozen hands, Zhou Jiayu entered the URL into the address box of the web page, then took a deep breath, and hit the Enter key.

When the screen turned around, a video actually appeared.

Zhou Jiayu was praying in his heart, but he already had an ominous premonition. He moved the mouse slowly and clicked on the play button.

The screen moved, and the picture was not very clear due to the lack of light, but Zhou Jiayu still recognized Lin Zhushui at a glance.Lin Zhushui seemed to be standing in a low cave. "Lin Zhushui." The speaker turned out to be Jiang Zhu, he said viciously, "Are you crazy, do you know what you are doing—"

Zhou Jiayu couldn't see Lin Zhushui's expression clearly, but he could feel his indifference from his tone. Lin Zhushui said, "Hand it over."

Jiang Zhu said angrily: "I've said it all, do you really think I'm lying to you? If you want to find that thing, you have to go to Meng Yangtian..."

Lin Zhushui said indifferently: "You really haven't?"

Jiang Zhu said yes.

Lin Zhushui's voice sounded again, this time it was as cold as ice, with a bone-chilling chill: "Then you can go to die."

Then there was a miserable cry, Zhou Jiayu saw a cluster of dazzling flames ignited in the dark cave, the flames actually attached to Jiang Zhu's body, and surrounded the city in an instant, turning him into ashes .

Both Jiang Zhu and Meng Yangtian had so many lives on their hands. Just the merman bones in the school and the young people who lost their lives killed by them in the live broadcast incident had dozens of them.His end like this didn't seem to make people feel pity, but Zhou Jiayu still held his breath - because he had never seen Lin Zhushui with such a murderous intent.

It was just a few words before he raised his hand and dropped his knife, and he didn't intend to continue to entangle with Jiang Zhu at all.

If the video ended here, then Zhou Jiayu would not be worried about Lin Zhushui, but although there was no light in the screen, he could still hear slow footsteps, as if Lin Zhushui was moving forward slowly.

Zhou Jiayu held his breath and watched carefully, afraid of missing any details.

Just when he thought the picture would keep going dark, another light came into his field of vision, but this time the light came from a very special source - Zhou Jiayu saw a flowing red river.

The river was sunken deep under the cliff, and there was flowing magma inside. Lin Zhushui walked on the high cliff next to the magma, his face was paled by the dim light, I don't know if it was Zhou Jiayu's delusion, he saw that there was no blood on Lin Zhushui's lips.

"Sir!" Seeing this, Zhou Jiayu's heart seemed to be pinched by someone. He even stretched out his hand involuntarily, wanting to touch Lin Zhushui on the screen.At this time, they hadn't seen each other for almost three months, but Zhou Jiayu never forgot Lin Zhushui's appearance.

In the video, Lin Zhushui was walking towards the front, but he seemed to hear something, and suddenly turned his head to look behind him.

And the next scene caused Zhou Jiayu to fall into an unspeakable panic. He heard a loud noise in the video, and then the screen shook violently. Lin Zhushui, who was originally standing on the edge of the cliff, The rocks under his feet began to collapse one by one. Although the picture was very dark, Zhou Jiayu saw with his own eyes that Lin Zhushui seemed to have fallen from a high place...

Zhou Jiayu felt chills all over his body watching it, and even his hands began to tremble non-stop. He swallowed heavily, forced himself to calm down, and watched the video several times again.

"Is there any possibility of this video being faked?" Zhou Jiayu discussed with Jiba, "No matter how you look at it...it doesn't look fake."

Ji Ba also agreed with Zhou Jiayu's statement.

Zhou Jiayu said: "That means what Meng Yangtian said is true, and something really happened to Mr." He stood up from the chair, spun around the room a little anxiously, and stretched his hand involuntarily. Holding the kraft paper in his pocket, "What exactly does Meng Yangtian want to do?"

No one could give Zhou Jiayu the answer, except the person on the other end of the phone.

In the end, Zhou Jiayu dialed Meng Yangtian's phone number again. He looked at the computer screen and heard Meng Yangtian's voice coming from the other end.

"Zhou Jiayu." Meng Yangtian said with a smile, "I'm glad to receive your call again."

"What's going on with that video?" Zhou Jiayu was a little anxious, and his tone couldn't be controlled, "Meng Yangtian, what on earth are you trying to do?"

"Me? In fact, I was forced to do nothing." Meng Yangtian didn't mind Zhou Jiayu's anger at all. He sighed, as if he was really a victim, "So you want to save Lin Zhushui? He is not in a good condition now. wonderful……"

"What do you want me to do?" Zhou Jiayu gritted his teeth.

Meng Yangtian said: "Zhou Jiayu, you don't have to be so hostile to me, I've never been your enemy." He laughed loudly, his smile was full of madness, and he said, "I didn't ask you to do it." What, do you want to do it yourself... I can tell you where Lin Zhushui is now, but you must promise that you can only come here alone."

Zhou Jiayu's grip on the phone was extremely strong. If Meng Yangtian was in front of him, he would have punched him in the face long ago, but at this moment he could only endure Meng Yangtian's provocation: "explain."

Meng Yangtian said: "Do you still remember the Meng family ruins you visited last time?"

Zhou Jiayu said, "I remember."

That mudslide completely covered the ruins of the Meng family. Zhou Jiayu also saw photos one month after the mudslide occurred. All the buildings were gone, the mountain depression was almost filled with mud, and some weeds began to grow on the surface. , looks rather desolate.

"Lin Zhushui is right there now," Meng Yang said.

Zhou Jiayu didn't expect Meng Yangtian to give such an answer. He was about to continue asking, but Meng Yangtian said, "Of course, the place he went to is quite special, and ordinary people can't get in. It belongs to our Meng family's burial place." Gudi, you go there alone, and I will tell you a more precise location after I confirm your location."

Zhou Jiayu said: "How can I trust you, if you lied to me—"

"So what if I lied to you?" Meng Yangtian's voice was indifferent, "You don't have to believe me, just take a gamble on whether I'm cheating on you, and what will happen if you insist on sneaking someone over there?" But there is no guarantee, if they die there, you are the murderer who killed them."

"Okay." Zhou Jiayu said, "I promise you, I'll set off right away—"

Meng Yangtian laughed happily: "As expected of Mr. Lin's disciple, he has courage, so see you tomorrow." After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

After finishing the call with Meng Yangtian, Zhou Jiayu called both Lin Jue and Lin Zhushui. As before, the call still showed that the user was not in the service area, which almost confirmed Meng Yangtian's statement.

If Lin Zhushui was still safe, it was absolutely impossible for him not to report to Zhou Jiayu on the night of the New Year's Eve to reassure him. Obviously, only when he was in a state where he could not get out, would Lin Zhushui communicate with him like this. Discontinued on special days.

"Are you really going?" Ji Ba was a little worried, "What if Meng Yangtian lied to you?"

Zhou Jiayu had already taken out his bag and started to pack his luggage. Facing Jiba's order, he said a word: "I can't afford to bet."

Jiba was silent.

Xiaozhi was sleeping in the house, but was disturbed by Zhou Jiayu's movement, it rubbed its eyes in a daze, and asked daddy where are you going in a soft voice.

Zhou Jiayu was a bit hesitant to bring Xiaozhi there, but immediately remembered that the Meng family died in a fire, and it was unknown whether Xiaozhi was made of paper, and whether it would be affected... Besides, Xiaozhi was The last paper figurine, Zhou Jiayu really didn't dare to take the risk.

"Xiao Zhi is good." Zhou Jiayu coaxed Xiao Zhi, "Dad has something to go out, you give this note to Shen Yiqiong tomorrow morning."

Xiaozhi is illiterate, holding the note and looking left and right can't understand it, but it vaguely sensed something, timidly pulled Zhou Jiayu's clothes corner, and said, Dad, where are you going, can you take Xiaozhi with you go.

"No way." Zhou Jiayu stroked Xiaozhi's head, "It's dangerous there, Dad can't take Xiaozhi with him, and Xiaozhi has to protect the ancestral tree behind the yard, and in the future Xiaozhi will rely on the ancestral tree to marry a wife What?" He said with a soft smile on his face.

Xiaozhi still didn't want to let go, and just looked at Zhou Jiayu eagerly.

Zhou Jiayu comforted it for a while, and finally let it give up the idea of ​​following, Xiaozhi said: "Then dad promised Xiaozhi, he must come back."

"Well, I'll be back." Zhou Jiayu smiled, "I'll be back with Big Daddy."

Xiaozhi took the note that Zhou Jiayu had left for it, and watched Zhou Jiayu go out with his luggage on his back.

The bus ticket has already been booked online. Fortunately, it's New Year's Eve, and few people go out. In addition, Meng's house is in the northeast, and it's not a tourist area, so after Zhou Jiayu decided to set off alone, he quickly I booked a ticket for the morning bus.He slipped out of the house with a bag on his back. Of course, before going out, he secretly went to the freezer where Lin Zhushui's blood was kept, and took all the blood inside.

After going out and taking a taxi, Zhou Jiayu went straight to the high-speed railway station.Originally, he considered whether to take a plane, but the snow was too heavy, and Zhou Jiayu was afraid that the flight would be delayed, so he booked a ticket for a ten-hour drive, and it should be evening when he got there.

In the taxi, Zhou Jiayu was really cold, so he opened a bag of blood and drank it slowly.The blood entrance was ice, but after passing through the throat and entering the stomach, it turned into a warm current.Zhou Jiayu was a little sleepy again. He was afraid that he would fall asleep, so he pinched his thigh hard.The uncle driver sitting in front noticed his movements and comforted him, "Young man, go to sleep, I will call you when you get to the place."

Zhou Jiayu said gratefully, "Thank you, Master."

"Oh, what's there to be thankful for? Where are you going this New Year's Eve." The driver said, "You look young, don't you have trouble with your family?"

Zhou Jiayu smiled and said no.

"Do you want to go home?" the driver asked again.

"No." Zhou Jiayu said warmly, "I'm going to find someone."

"Oh, no wonder." The driver also smiled, "Is it someone you like? Well, it's nice to be young. When you meet someone you like, it's a good thing to be brave..."

Yes, it's great to meet someone you like... Amidst his ramblings, Zhou Jiayu closed his eyes and fell asleep in a daze.

Half an hour later, Zhou Jiayu was called up from the car by the driver, saying that he had arrived at the stop.

Zhou Jiayu rubbed his eyes, thanked the driver, left the taxi with his bag on his back, and got into the car quickly after passing the security check.

The train started slowly and left the platform. Zhou Jiayu watched the lights around him go away, and everything turned into darkness.

In the car, Zhou Jiayu watched the video sent to him by Meng Yangtian several times, and he prayed secretly in his heart, hoping everything would be in time.

The train drove for eighteen hours, during which Zhou Jiayu ate two boxed meals.Because of his physical fatigue recently, Shen Yiqiong and the others would not deliberately come to ask Zhou Jiayu to eat in the morning, but would wait for him to wake up naturally.Zhou Jiayu told Xiaozhi that the time was twelve o'clock in the noon, and told him to show the note to Shen Yiqiong and the others when the time came.

Xiaozhi obviously listened to Zhou Jiayu's words very much. As soon as twelve o'clock arrived, Zhou Jiayu's cell phone rang, and the number was from Shen Yiqiong.

When Zhou Jiayu got up, he heard Shen Yiqiong's distraught voice, "Zhou Jiayu, where are you, what did you do—"

Zhou Jiayu said, "Calm down."

"I can't calm down, come back quickly! Where have you been and what do you want!" Shen Yiqiong was obviously incoherent, he was so angry that he asked a series of questions quickly.

Zhou Jiayu felt a little headache when he heard it, saying that if you speak slowly, he can't hear clearly.

But the next moment, Shen Yiqiong's cell phone was robbed, and this time it was Shen Musi's voice, asking the same question, but his tone was much calmer: "Zhou Jiayu, where have you been? "

"I have something to do." Zhou Jiayu said, "Don't worry about me."

Shen Mu said angrily: "I'm not worried about you, how could I not be worried, Zhou Jiayu, how could you be like this, if something happens to you, how can we explain to the husband?!"

Zhou Jiayu was silent for a while when he heard this, and then he said in a low voice: "If something happens to me, sir, you don't have to draw blood."

As soon as this sentence came out, there was silence on the other end of the phone.

"Thank you." Zhou Jiayu said, "It's been a pleasure spending time with you, thank you."

Shen Yiqiong started to scold again, but he began to cry when he scolded, and Xiaozhi's sobbing voice came over, saying, Dad, where are you going, don't you want Xiaozhi?

After listening for a while, Zhou Jiayu couldn't take it anymore, so he hung up the phone and turned it off.

He knew that this trip was an adventure, but he didn't want to wait any longer. He was afraid that something would happen to Lin Zhushui, and he was afraid that he would become the catastrophe in Lin Zhushui's life.

He was already a dead person, even if he had something, it was just to pay off the debt.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jiayu lay down on the bunk and fell asleep in a daze. He didn't sleep well, and his dream was full of fragmentary images.He saw the scenes that he had almost forgotten before the rebirth, as well as the bits and pieces of getting along with Lin Zhushui after the rebirth.

This was a revolving dream, and when Zhou Jiayu woke up, she found that her face was covered with tears.He got up from the bed, wiped his face, and wiped away the water stains.

Because of the New Year's Eve, the carriage was empty, almost only Zhou Jiayu was alone. He lit a cigarette, smoked slowly, and said, "Jiba, the moon outside is so beautiful."

Jiba said, "That's right."

"Curved." Zhou Jiayu also rolled his eyes and smiled, "I still remember the first time I saw my husband drinking in the yard, and the moon looked like this at that time."

Ji Ba didn't know what to say, it was obviously a bird, but he could see the sadness on his face.

"I miss him so much." Zhou Jiayu said the last words of the night, "I miss him very much."

The train finally arrived at the station, during which it experienced another day and night.

When Zhou Jiayu got out of the car, he turned on his mobile phone. Seeing that his phone was about to explode, the four people in the room tried their best to call him and try to reach him. The most recent call log from half an hour ago.

Zhou Jiayu was a little moved, but he didn't call back, but just sent a text message to report that he was safe, and then turned off the phone.

Now that he has arrived, he has no way to go back, and can only take one step forward.

At this time, the continuous mountain range here has been covered with thick snow. At a glance, the grass and trees are all white, and the ground is covered with deep snow, which is enough to cover the calf.

Zhou Jiayu bought some more equipment in a nearby town, then went into the mountain alone, heading towards the ruins of the Meng family.

When I went to the Meng family site before, Xu Jian led the way, but now he goes alone, it is a bit difficult after all.Fortunately, there is only one road to the Meng family ruins, and following that road is Zhou Jiayu's destination.

Before Zhou Jiayu went up the mountain, he drank another bag of Lin Zhushui's blood.He was afraid that his blood would freeze, so he kept protecting his body with his body temperature.Drinking it into his mouth at this time, he felt his body was extremely warm, and his body was full of strength again, as if Lin Zhushui was by his side as a companion.

"I feel much better." Zhou Jiayu said to Jiba, he was very tired, he yawned slowly, stretched out his hands and rubbed his face heavily to wake himself up, "How long will it take to arrive."

"Hurry up." Ji Ba said, "I remember that the Meng family ruins are not too far away."

It is indeed not too far, but that is also a normal distance. At this time, the sky is getting dark and the road is covered with thick snow, so it is naturally not convenient to travel.Zhou Jiayu tried his best to hurry, but failed to reach the destination before dark.

Snow began to fall in the sky again. In such a cold weather, Zhou Jiayu didn't dare to rest halfway. He turned on his phone again - this time not to answer Shen Yiqiong's call, but because he was afraid of missing Meng Yangtian's call. information.

As night fell, the white snow reflected gleaming light, Zhou Jiayu stepped on it with a creaking sound, panting and exhaling white air, and walked forward step by step with difficulty.

Finally, at about midnight, Zhou Jiayu finally arrived at the Meng family ruins that Meng Yangtian had mentioned.He was condescending, looking at the small town that had been filled by mudslides in the valley.Now there is no trace of the building at all, only the path of the mudslide flow, which is covered with snow, and the rest is embarrassingly flat.

Panting heavily, Zhou Jiayu took out his mobile phone and dialed Meng Yangtian's number. The phone rang three times before being picked up. Zhou Jiayu said, "I'm here."

"I know." Meng Yangtian said lightly, "I saw you, you came alone, that's good..."

Zhou Jiayu said, "How do I get in?"

Meng Yangtian said, "Follow them."

Zhou Jiayu was thinking about what it meant to follow them, when he heard rustling sounds from the nearby woods, as if there were some wild beasts.His heart tightened, and he projected the light of the flashlight, but he saw strange figures slowly crawling out of the darkness and the thick snow—they were black charred corpses. .

Although they looked like human beings, they could not be considered human beings at all. They kept their scorched posture, twisting their bodies and walking towards Zhou Jiayu step by step.

Although Zhou Jiayu had seen these things once before when he came here, he was still taken aback when he saw these things again at such a close distance.He held his breath, and stepped back slightly, trying to distance himself from these things.

But fortunately, those charred corpses didn't intend to get close to Zhou Jiayu, they turned around slowly and started moving in another direction.

Zhou Jiayu grabbed the phone and quickly followed.

"Hurry up." Meng Yangtian said, "Zhou Jiayu, you don't have much time left." After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly, leaving Zhou Jiayu with a busy message with endless thoughts. .

Zhou Jiayu once again felt that Meng Yangtian was really a bastard.

Although Jiao Zong walked in a strange way, his speed was not slow, and he led Zhou Jiayu deeper into the depression step by step.

Zhou Jiayu struggled to follow, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted. At the same time, he was also observing the charred corpse in front of him.There were about four of these charred corpses, all of whom seemed to be male.It looked almost the same as the ones they encountered when they were here last time, but Zhou Jiayu looked at these corpses, but inexplicably thought of the black liquid that Jiang Zhu made. He always felt that the black liquid had something to do with these charred corpses. Seeing the inseparable relationship, he guessed that if the black liquid was fully revived, it might appear in the form of the charred corpse in front of him...

While Zhou Jiayu was thinking, he walked forward for a while, and after bypassing some messy rocks, the scenery in front of him suddenly became clear. He seemed to have arrived at a rocky area, and there was not a single weed here. , all covered with thick dust.

The Jiao corpse suddenly stopped, and Zhou Jiayu looked carefully at where they were, but found a gap in a hidden place that could allow one person to pass through.

Is it here?Zhou Jiayu was wondering when he saw the charred corpses slowly squeezing their bodies in along the gap.

"Are you really going?" Ji Ba became worried when he saw this scene.

"Well." Zhou Jiayu said, "If Meng Yangtian really wants to kill me, he can do it now, so why bother with such troublesome things?"

It was the same reason, but Jiba was still very worried, knowing that he couldn't persuade Zhou Jiayu, so he quietly shut up.

Zhou Jiayu gritted his teeth, took off his backpack, and began to try to enter the crevice of the mountain.
