Strange talk live room

Chapter 125 He is following us

The wind is whining and the branches and leaves are swaying.

The woods ahead, the woods to the left and right, and the woods behind them all looked the same.

The same deep darkness.

In such an inaccessible mountain, the trees cover the sky and there is no reference. Everything looks the same everywhere, and the direction is difficult to distinguish, so it is easiest to get lost.

"Are you sure the direction is correct?" I asked Mu Bai worriedly.

"No one has been to this forest for many years. In fact, I am not sure. My intuition tells me that it should be there." Mu Bai looked ahead and raised his flashlight to shine.

The cold white light seemed to be eaten by darkness, and the gloomy and dark woods looked extremely unreal under the shroud of mist.

"The previous scene is very similar to the scene in my dream. Boss Li, believe me, it should be right!"

"Okay, I'm here anyway, just go and take a look and you'll find out."

Nodding, we continued walking forward.

The mist drowned our figures, as if we had entered another world.

The grass was overgrown, and there were strange shadows everywhere. There were definitely a lot of snakes, insects, rats, and ants in this kind of deep mountain forest. I walked carefully and slapped the grass with branches.

Rustling——

I don’t know when it started, but there was always a faint noise in the grass behind me. It was sneaky, as if something was following me.

I looked back a few times.

The woods are so dense that if someone is really following us, I won't be able to detect them just hiding behind the tree trunks.

Feeling very uneasy, I turned my head and asked Mu Bai in a low voice: "Do you feel like something is following us?"

"Boss Li, did you hear it too? I thought it was the noise caused by the wind or wild animals."

"The noises made by these two cannot be so regular."

"Who could it be?" Mu Bai couldn't help turning his head, but I stopped him.

"Don't look back! Let's pretend we don't know and find a place to hide in front to see who this person is."

"OK."

We remained calm, slowly quickened our pace, and started to trot.

The rustling sound behind him became louder, accompanied by the clicking sound of dead branches under his feet. Sure enough, the man followed.

Mu Bai and I exchanged glances, suddenly turned off the flashlight, and turned around to hide behind the tree trunk next to us.

Crouching down, we concentrated and listened carefully to what was going on behind us.

Swish, swish, swish!

The sound of feet stepping on leaves got closer and closer, finally stopping at the spot where we turned off the lights.

Darkness blocks vision but amplifies our other senses.

Although I couldn't see it, I could hear breathing.

The other party was standing there, probably looking for us too.

After a while, the dim light slowly turned on, and an old and dark face appeared in our sight.

It's him!

The old farmer who was very mean to me.

Why is he following us?

Mu Bai and I looked at each other in surprise.

The old farmer moved cautiously, raised the lantern in his hand, and moved his cloudy eyes around, looking for us.

After Mu Bai was surprised, he seemed thoughtful and seemed to know something. He pulled the hem of my clothes, pointed to me in the direction ahead, and motioned for me to leave quickly.

I glanced at the old farmer, suppressed the doubts in my heart, and followed him quietly away from the tree trunk where I was hiding, away from the old farmer.

After groping in the darkness, until there was only one spot of light left in the wind lantern in the old farmer's hand, I lowered my voice and asked Mu Bai.

"Isn't the back mountain a taboo in your village? How dare he follow us in?"

"Uncle Gensheng probably means no harm, we don't need to worry about him." Mu Bai waved his hand, turned on the flashlight, and covered the lamp with his fingers.

A faint light lit up, only dimly illuminating the feet. I couldn't see Mu Bai's expression.

"Why are you so sure?"

"He is Xiuhong's father."

I couldn't help being surprised.

The old farmer turned out to be the father of the missing girl. Did he come to the back mountain to find his missing daughter?

"Uncle Gensheng has been alone without his daughter all these years, which is pitiful enough. The back mountain is a taboo in our village. I don't know what dangers there are, and I don't want him to take risks with us. Let's go quickly, don't let him follow us. ."

Mu Bai sighed sympathetically.

"Since we are here to find my daughter, we just have to look for her openly. Why are we following us secretly?" I still think there is a problem.

"Anyway, don't worry, Uncle Gensheng is not a bad person."

Mu Bai did not explain, but walked forward with his head down.

At this time, I suddenly felt that he must be hiding some secrets that he had not told me.

I was more wary of Mu Bai in my heart, but I remained calm on the surface, deliberately slowing down and following him.

If he and the old farmer were together, it would be very easy for the two of them to join forces and want to do something to me in the deep mountains and old forests.

After walking forward quietly for a while, the lights behind disappeared and the old farmer seemed unable to follow.

"arrive."

Mu Bai suddenly stopped.

We have reached the deepest part of the mountain forest. In front of us is the mountain wall behind the forest. The top is blocked by dense branches and leaves, so we can't see how high it is.

"There's nothing here." I turned on the flashlight and looked around.

"But I feel like this is it." Mu Bai seemed to sense something and walked slowly towards the mountain wall, reaching out his hand and placing it on the wet soil above.

But after waiting for a while, the surroundings were still eerily quiet, and nothing appeared.

"Mu Bai, are you going in the wrong direction?" I asked with a frown.

"No, it's impossible! On the way here, I always heard someone calling me. I followed that voice and came here." Mu Bai shook his head firmly.

"Where are you? I'm already here, come out."

"You've been calling me, and now I'm here, why can't you hide and come out?"

Mu Bai shouted loudly, his trembling voice echoing in the mountains.

"Hehehe" A ethereal sneer came from nowhere, as if in response to him.

It was a woman's voice, vague and unreal.

"It's her! It must be her!" Mu Bai's expression suddenly changed, and he continued to shout towards the dark forest, "Where are you? Come out!"

"Hehehe, hehehe"

The woman's voice floated uncertainly, and it was impossible to tell which direction it was coming from. It was obviously laughter, but it gave people an extremely desolate feeling.

My heart was raised and I stared around carefully.

The cold white light of the flashlight swayed little by little from the swaying trees. In the hazy mist, a figure seemed to be getting closer and closer.

"There seems to be someone there."

Mu Bai followed my voice and looked towards the direction we came from.

"You are finally willing to come out! I want to see who you are!" Mu Bai's eyes widened, nervous and excited, and he ran in the direction of the figure regardless.
