Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

The yellow team's driving skills are very good, and it's not a holiday, so the road is smooth on the highway.Soft and ethereal music was playing in the car, and the small air conditioner was squeaking, making the people in the car drowsy after a while.

At first Li Qiu was able to chat with Huang Dui a few words about homework, but he couldn't stand it anymore, he felt sleepy again and again, closed his eyes drowsily, and hurriedly sat upright the moment he fell on Ah Jiu.

"Oh, sorry, I'm sleepy."

Li Qiu hurriedly apologized to Ah Jiu in a low voice, but he didn't get a response from the other party for a long time. Looking sideways, Ah Jiu's eyelids were tightly closed behind the sunglasses. Good guy, this person has already gone to tryst Zhou Gong by himself. .

Li Qiu was so angry that he just wanted to wake Ah Jiu up, so he thought about it and forget it. On such a hot day, anyone would feel sleepy when riding in a car with the air conditioner on. When they got to the place, they would have to run around the scenic spot non-stop. By then, there must be no one who didn’t have a good rest time.Li Qiu resentfully put down his hands, stayed for a while, then took off his coat resignedly, and covered the sleeping Ah Jiu.

Huang Dui, who had been driving in front, saw this scene from the rearview mirror, and said with a smile, "Xiao Li, brother Huang, what does this friend of yours have to do with you?"

This is a big step forward in intimacy, which has not just left Beijing.

Li Qiu silently said "I have to adapt, I have to adapt", and replied: "We are brothers."

"Brother? No wonder. I saw that you were worried about him along the way. At first glance, you can't be just friends. You should be brothers. But I don't think you two look alike at all. Brother Huang, I know people very well. Come, come, take off his sunglasses and tell me to take a look at where you two look like?"

Li Qiu was a little embarrassed. Firstly, Team Huang's request was really presumptuous, and secondly, Ah Jiu was still wearing sunglasses in the car, which reminded him of Ah Jiu's eyes that were different from ordinary people. What if Ah Jiu wore it on purpose? ?

Just when Li Qiu didn't move, a rough and unfamiliar male voice came from behind.

"Old Huang, your driving skills are very good. You can still meet young people while holding the steering wheel. If you have too much energy, do you want to step on the accelerator and dance ballet later?"

Li Qiu was startled, and then remembered that there was still a person sleeping in the back row, and he had woken up at some point.However, this person's words subtly relieved the embarrassment at the moment, Huang Dui laughed, and got bored with the man in the back row without a word, so he stopped exploring Ah Jiu's appearance.

Li Qiu collected himself and looked back, it didn't matter what he saw, he almost jumped up in fright.

——How can there be such an ugly person!

The man in the back row looks to be in his 40s, with dark skin, a rough face with a flat, featureless face, a big mouth and thick nose, short and fat, and the most terrible thing is the two free-spirited black hairs on the top of his head. Be as ugly as you want.

Before Li Qiu could speak, the short fat man noticed him first, and smiled: "Little brother is not bad, how old is he, do you have a partner? Hey, I said Lao Huang, did you cheat in that shitty online lottery draw?" , how to pick people by face, only pick good-looking ones!"

Huang Dui spat at him, laughed and cursed a few foul words, and the two of them just got into each other's back and forth.

Li Qiu resigned to his fate and sat back in his seat, and began to miss the tranquility when he was still sleepy before. The short fat man was talking dirty in the back row, and Li Qiu instinctively leaned in the direction of Ah Jiu, but unfortunately the latter didn't notice it at all and was still closed Eyes sleep sweetly.

As the sky gradually darkened, the car drove into the territory of Henan, Li Qiu was stunned for a while, and then he just nestled in the seat and played with his mobile phone with his head down.I don't know how long it took, but the yellow team suddenly cursed in a low voice from the front row.

"Damn it, we've encountered a cloud of fog!"

"Fog?" Li Qiu looked up, and saw that the green belt and railings outside the car window had disappeared at some point, leaving only a vast expanse of whiteness, and the bright headlights could only illuminate a position three or four meters ahead. The car was stuck in a thick fog.

Fog is a thick fog that appears locally on the expressway, with a small area and extremely low visibility, which cannot be predicted in advance.Once the car plunges into the fog, it is neither moving forward nor backward. If you are unlucky and another large car passes by at the same time, it will be a tragedy of car crash.

Seeing that the fog was getting thicker and thicker, a shallow layer of water mist formed outside the glass, quickly blurring the entire world.

Team Huang gathered himself together, lowered the speed of the car, turned on all the lights, and crawled slowly along the central green belt.

"If I were you, I wouldn't drive on the passing lane."

Li Qiu turned his head in surprise, and found that Ah Jiu had opened his eyes at some point and was expressing his opinion in a calm manner.

When the short fat man in the back row heard this, he howled immediately, "What?! You, surnamed Huang, keep to the left!? Keep to the right! Fuck you! Pull the car into the emergency parking lane!"

Team Huang broke into a cold sweat, turned the steering quickly, felt the distance was about the same, pushed the car to the emergency parking lane, and drove slowly against the high-speed guardrail on the right.

Only then did Humpty Dumpty heave a sigh of relief, cursing and talking nonsense.Li Qiu is not good at this kind of sudden situation on the highway, so he had to bite the bullet and ask: "Doesn't the fog only appear when the sun rises in the early morning? This is the first time I have seen it in the evening. "

Humpty Humpty grinned, showing his yellow teeth, and smiled: "The fog that appeared in the early morning is because there is water nearby, and the fog that appears when the sun sets... is because there are ghosts nearby."

He bit the word "ghost" very hard, and flung it hard in the sealed carriage, making people tremble all over.

The surrounding temperature seemed to drop a few degrees accordingly, Li Qiu touched his exposed arm, it was icy cold, this kind of temperature could not be created by the air conditioner in the car.

Humpty Humpty lit a cigarette for himself, and in the sealed compartment, the pungent smoke soon spread to everyone's mouths and noses, calming everyone's nerves.The short fat man took two puffs of cigarettes, turned on the map with the light of the phone, and pointed on it: "Old Huang, I remember we passed the Guanyin Hall just now?"

"Yeah, why are you asking that?"

Humpty Humpty chuckled, "Isn't it your first time in Henan? Damn you don't even know about this. The Guanyin Hall—it's an ancient battlefield in the past."

High speed after sunset, ancient battlefield, and fog.They didn't know that a bunch of outsiders, but now that they think about it, it seems that they haven't encountered any vehicles on the surrounding highways since just now—most of the areas in this area often have severe fog after sunset, and the locals must avoid it.

Li Qiu sat back and accidentally touched Ah Jiu's fingers, which were as cold as the car window.

"Ah Jiu, are you cold?"

"Cold." Ah Jiu moved his mouth, turned to look at Li Qiu beside him, "You hug me."

Like flirtatious words, Li Qiu couldn't think about it in this situation. Li Qiu took off his backpack and put his arms around Ah Jiu.The moment he turned around, a wet handprint suddenly appeared outside the window of the car where he was sitting—a human handprint.

The palm protruding from the dense fog is like a ghost, sticking to the car window ferociously, as if it will break through the window in the next second.

Except for Li Qiu who just turned around, the other three people in the car all saw the scene, but no one made a sound, let alone make a sound.

Huang Dui's fingers holding the steering wheel were slightly sweating, and he swallowed desperately. Soon, in the fog, one hand after another silently climbed onto the window and body of the car, and the speed of the car slowed down uncontrollably. The palm seemed to contain great strength, trying to force them to stop.

Humpty Humpty stared at those palms intently, pressed down on the weapon in his backpack, and looked sternly.

Without knowing it, Li Qiu threw his whole body on Ah Jiu, wholeheartedly trying to keep him warm, Ah Jiu also hugged him back cooperatively, then passed through Li Qiu's shoulder, and slowly opened his eyes behind the sunglasses.

A pair of dark pupils without a trace of light.

The palms on the window suddenly trembled in shock, and instantly retracted into the dense fog, one after another, but in the blink of an eye, the palms of the people clinging to the car were completely retreated, and there was no one left.

"Damn it?" Humpty Humpty rubbed his eyes, probably not understanding what happened in the gap of a few seconds. How could the palm of the person who was about to break through the window suddenly disappear? !

However, before he could speak again, the yellow team in front suddenly shouted in surprise: "We're out! We're out!"

Sure enough, the fog ahead became thinner and thinner, the temperature rose slowly, and the silhouette of the setting sun shone in again, as if reborn.It took only a few minutes before and after, passing through the short and mysterious fog, the group of people seemed to have walked through hell on earth.

Huang Dui laughed a few times, and the short fat man knew the fear and joy in his laughter, threw a pack of cigarettes over, and laughed and cursed with him again.

Li Qiu's heart finally fell back to the ground, "We, did we come out? The fog just now scared people to death."

"Yes." Ah Jiu leaned back, pillowing her arms as if enjoying herself.

It was only then that Li Qiu realized that he was still sitting on Ah Jiu's lap, facing each other in an extremely delicate posture.Li Qiu backed away in embarrassment, but fortunately Ah Jiu didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, neither loathing nor objecting.

Arriving at the gas station in the service area, the staff expressed their sincere admiration when they learned that they had just passed that road.Several people laughed bitterly, and after a small episode, they finally arrived in Luoyang after dark.

The yellow team didn't stop in the urban area, and ran for more than half an hour, and came straight to a hotel on the edge of the scenic spot.

Several hours of driving made Li Qiu exhausted, standing in the lobby and yawning again and again, the yellow team had already checked out the room, but when they handed over the room card, there was only one room card.

Captain Huang scratched his head in embarrassment, "The guest rooms in the hotel are all full, and the temporary room has not been added. See if you can make do with it tonight. I asked the manager just now, and he said that there is a tour group that will be checking out tomorrow. Then there will be vacancies."

It seems that this is the only way to go, Li Qiu glanced at Ah Jiu, who didn't say anything, and the two went to the room.

It's not early, and the activities will start early tomorrow morning. Ah Jiu didn't bother to say hello, and occupied the bathroom as soon as he entered the door.When he came out of the shower in a leisurely manner, he found that the light was on in the room but no one was there. Li Qiu was leaning on the window, looking out in a daze.

When Li Qiu heard him coming, he didn't turn his head, but said excitedly: "Ah Jiu, look, this place is really beautiful..."

Ah Jiu looked out following Li Qiu's line of sight. Outside the window, there was no boundless darkness as imagined. Under the night, the lanterns illuminated the mountains in the distance, showing a magnificent picture scroll of Buddhist caves in front of the two of them.
