i don't want to die again

In the small tent, a sudden gust of wind caused Xu Shunian to let out a few low cries.

He was huddling together with Lu Zhan, watching the small plate of oily liquid placed between them evaporate less and less in the air at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In fact, they all have to bend their backs slightly now, but because they are concentrated, no one cares that this posture is a bit restrained. In this small tent, Lu Zhan, who is nearly 1.9 meters tall, occupies a lot of space, while Xu Shu Although Nian is thin, he is also nearly 1.8 meters tall. When the two of them sat in the tent at the same time, there was basically no space for them to move freely. Even if they moved a little, the tent would have to shake.

Xu Shunian smelled the faint scent of the liquid, a bit like the scent of incense candles in temples, and asked, "What is the function of this thing?"

While observing, Lu Zhan said, "The smell from this thing can attract the ghosts of the whole forest."

Xu Shunian swallowed unconsciously when he heard this, and asked cautiously, "How many ghosts will there be here?"

Feeling something at this moment, Lu Zhan hissed and whispered, "Here we come."

As soon as he finished speaking, the icy chill came from all directions, Xu Shunian unconsciously shivered, and then found in horror that the tent they were in was shaken by the wind that came from nowhere, and there was no need to go outside. With a glance, he can feel that there are layers of surroundings outside.

"Let's go out." Lu Zhan picked up his bag and gestured to Xu Shunian.

Xu Shunian struggled for a few seconds, then followed Lu Zhan tremblingly.

After getting out of the tent, although Xu Shunian had made mental preparations in advance, he was still taken aback by the sight in front of him, and understood the reason why Lu Zhan said that he needed more boys this time.

I saw that in this open space, there were densely packed ghosts in the visible range, and some were outside the dark and invisible boundary. I don't know how many there are.

Xu Shunian has been following closely behind Lu Zhan. The two of them shuttled among the ghosts. Lu Zhan felt that the people behind him followed him step by step, and there was a tendency to get closer and closer. When he turned around, he saw his nervous expression and couldn't help it. She smiled, and reached out to hold his hand.

Xu Shunian tried to relieve his tension with words: "How can we find those ghosts..."

Lu Zhan said softly: "Actually, we don't need to identify one by one. They will follow them when they get out of here."

Xu Shunian nodded and continued to ask; "Is it because I have those strange memories that I was imprinted by that ghost?"

Lu Zhan thought for a while and said, "It's not the same, it's just that you should have come into contact with some ghosts here during that experience, so you were affected by them. If it's the kind of ghost that will leave a mark on the living , then it should follow you all the time."

Xu Shunian understood, thought for a while and said, "After we find it, what do we need to do?"

Lu Zhan: "Let him leave this world willingly."

After they walked to a place a little far from the open space where the tents gathered, most of the ghosts in that area just stood near the place where they put the sesame oil, and only three of them followed them all the way to other places.

Xu Shunian found the three ghosts and observed them carefully for a while. He felt that they all looked like boys about his own age, but they looked very dazed, as if they didn't have much consciousness.

"Is it these three?" Xu Shunian looked at Lu Zhan suspiciously.

Lu Zhan frowned slightly and didn't know what to think. He paused and said, "It seems that they all react to your breath, so you should have had contact with them before."

Xu Shunian looked back at the three ghosts who were staring blankly at him, and said nervously, "Then what are we going to do next?"

Lu Zhan looked at the appearance of these ghosts, thought for a while, and said: "They don't have any obvious scars on their bodies, and they don't have any resentment, and their consciousness has dissipated. They should have wandered in the mountains and forests for a long time... "

Suddenly thought of something, Lu Zhan suddenly said: "They must have lost their way in the mountains before they were alive, and then their souls were also trapped in this mountain. If we take them out of this mountain forest, it should be to help them fulfill their obsession before death." gone."

After speaking, Lu Zhan dragged Xu Shunian out, and the three ghosts followed them in a daze.

"Those ghosts who have been staying outside the tent? Will it affect other people?"

"It's okay, when the smell of sesame oil is gone, they will disperse by themselves."

When they finally arrived at the entrance of the scenic spot, the two looked back at the three ghosts while walking. When they arrived at the parking lot in front of the scenic spot, the three ghosts were all fixed in place and did not move forward.

"What's going on?" Xu Shunian was puzzled.

"Don't worry." Lu Zhan glanced at the night sky, "When the sun rises, they will know that they can walk out of the forest."

Xu Shunian always believed in Lu Zhan's words, and the two sat on the bench repaired by the parking lot for passers-by to rest, chatting and waiting for the sunrise.

"Will I recover my memory?" Xu Shunian's sleep nerves had already begun to torture his sanity. If he didn't speak, he felt that he might fall asleep with his head tilted at any time.

Lu Zhan turned to look at him and asked, "Do you want to recover?"

Xu Shunian stared straight at the three ghosts standing blankly outside the gate of the scenic spot, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "I don't know, just let it be."

When the night in the sky began to glow with a hazy halo, Xu Shunian had survived the most sleepy time at this time, and he regained some energy. In the green mountains and green fields, he enjoyed the scene of the morning sun rising slowly. Also felt a little comfortable.

"They moved." Lu Zhan said suddenly.

Xu Shunian turned his eyes back to the three ghosts, and found that they turned around and walked towards the scenic spot again.

"Follow." Lu Zhan pulled Xu Shunian and chased them.

Along the winding mountain road, the two of them followed the three ghosts up the stairs. At sunrise, the forest was icy cold and wet, and the forest was still dark.

Xu Shunian asked suspiciously: "Why did they go back to the mountains? Aren't they trapped and want to get out?"

Lu Zhan looked up at the ghosts and said in a low voice, "They are repeating their own experiences."

Xu Shunian observed the ghosts carefully for a while, only to find that they had gradually regained their sanity, and were no longer as dumb as before, and even chatted and laughed along the way, just like a few friends who just came to travel together .

After following for a while like this, when he was approaching the height of the mountain forest, Xu Shunian realized that this route was exactly the same as the one he had walked before. It was in this direction when he got lost and returned to look for the jade tablet for the second time. .

"I have indeed been here before, and I entered through that opening." Xu Shunian looked at the ghosts standing in front of him, as if they were discussing something, and then saw them all burrowing into the woods.

"What are you doing in that forest? It's easy to get lost there." Lu Zhan was surprised.

Xu Shunian smiled and said, "Because I couldn't think about it before, I want to finish it here."

Lu Zhan choked, and didn't know what to say for a while, but seeing Xu Shunian's face at this time with a calm and calm face, he was relieved and said in a low voice: "It's not surprising."

Xu Shunian was stunned and asked, "What?"

Lu Zhan said seriously: "When a person loses hope of living, he will be easily influenced by the yin. This is why you have changed so much after that experience."

When Xu Shunian heard this, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Lu Zhan added solemnly: "It's better to live than to die, so don't worry about it any more."

Xu Shunian smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes."

They got closer to the entrance where the three ghosts entered the forest, and when they looked inside, they couldn't find the figures of those people. Xu Shunian couldn't help being a little puzzled.

"Don't worry, they will show up in due time." Lu Zhan pulled back Xu Shunian, who was subconsciously walking in, and asked someone to stand beside him.

When the morning sun gradually brightened, the entire mountain forest came alive, and birds and insects sang everywhere, full of vitality.

At this time, the three ghosts finally came out of the forest again, carrying huge burdens on their backs, with smiles on their faces, as if they had just experienced a novel and interesting experience and were returning home contentedly.

When they passed Xu Shunian, several people seemed to gather together and said: "Camping here is really exciting and novel, and it is not a loss at all to come here."

The other also nodded: "It's just that there are a lot of bugs. Next time I go out to play, I must bring a few bottles of mosquito repellent lotion."

They talked and laughed around Xu Shunian, as if he was one of them.

Then one of them took out something from his trouser pocket and handed it to Xu Shunian, then picked up the backpack strap, and went down the mountain road, and the others followed. When they walked a few steps away, they turned their heads to Xu Shu Nian waved his hand, just like saying goodbye to an old friend, his face was filled with the sunshine and vitality unique to young boys.

Xu Shunian stared blankly at their figures gradually blurring in the sunlight until they disappeared, standing there for a long time.

Lu Zhan stood watching all the time, and found that the thing in Xu Shunian's hand was shining brightly. It was the jade tablet he had lost. He frowned and looked thoughtful.

After regaining his senses, Xu Shunian turned around and asked Lu Zhan in a daze, "Is it over?"

Lu Zhan asked him, "Do you remember anything now?"

Xu Shunian shook his head: "No, nothing seems to have changed."

Then he realized what was in his hand, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he said with some surprise: "Is this your jade token?"

Lu Zhan pushed back the jade token he handed over, smiled and said, "You take this with you first."

Xu Shunian was puzzled: "What am I carrying? This is not you..."

Lu Zhan interrupted him: "I think it is more destined for you now, and I don't need it now, you can also ward off evil spirits by carrying it with you."

Xu Shunian still wanted to say something, but Lu Zhan changed the subject and said, "Do you still remember what I said before, do you want to promise me something?"

"What's the matter?" Xu Shunian also remembered this incident, seeing Lu Zhan approaching him a few steps with a smile on his face, so that he could only slightly raise his head to look directly into his eyes, and suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart The throbbing feeling spread and grew, and the hand holding the jade tablet unconsciously clenched a little bit.

Lu Zhan lowered his head slightly, looked at Xu Shunian's confused eyes, and said softly: "I just want to ask, you used to say every day that you want to kiss me, want to fall in love with me, want to pester me all the time, want to sleep with me , does it still count now?"
