Chapter 416 Night in the Rainforest(1/2)
Dr. Cole's son was the last to leave. He had been watching the teddy bear that once belonged to him, tied to a tree.
Everyone knew that he was missing his father, so he didn't call him, leaving him a space to be alone.
Dr. Cole's son walked to the tree, reached out to untied the teddy bear, and looked carefully.
The host called him from a distance, and he responded: "I'll come."
He stuffed the teddy bear into his backpack and went after the others.
Wu Long quickly found a place to camp. In the wild, the best way is to live on trees, or build a shelf similar to a hammock between trees and leave the ground to rest.
This can prevent venomous snakes and insects, as well as wild animals to rush into the camp.
Of course, there are also beasts like leopards on the trees. But compared to the ground, there is much less danger.
But it's too late now. Besides, there are so many people, it's hard to build a resting place that leaves the ground like this.
Fortunately, everyone has a camping tent, so you don’t have to worry about poisonous insects and snakes coming in with the zipper.
In addition to the tent, each tent is also equipped with a light. The host asked the photographer to install a camera around the camp. If an accident occurs, you can know what happened through the camera afterwards.
A fire broke out in the middle of the camp, and everyone ate around the fire. Then, someone chatted and Wu Long patroled nearby.
Dr. Cole's son took out the teddy bear and looked at it again in the flames.
"Did you bring the teddy bear?" the photographer asked in surprise.
Dr. Cole's son nodded. "Yes."
"How can you take gifts from ghost trees? Are you not afraid of being cursed and retribution?" The photographer remembered the legend of the Amazon rainforest he had seen.
"This is his, no problem." The host spoke to Dr. Cole's son.
The photographer was still worried and said, "But how can you be sure it is yours? Maybe it is someone else's teddy bear, but it is exactly the same as yours."
Dr. Cole's son said seriously:
"It's mine. The teddy bear's clothes are embroidered with the abbreviation of my name. It is impossible for the world to be so coincidental. The same teddy bear, the same clothes are embroidered with the same letters."
Photographers just love to argue.
"But, this coincidence is not impossible."
He always felt that the things on the ghost tree were for the ghost souls, and it was unlucky. So, he wanted to convince Dr. Cole's son to put the teddy bear back.
Dr. Cole's son showed the teddy bear's feet to the photographer again.
"Look here, my teddy bear was once broken, just here, so here is the foot. So this teddy bear is resewn with thread. So too. So many coincidences are together, it's not a coincidence."
The photographer couldn't say anything else. But he heard Dr. Cole's son say:
"It just surprised me. At that time, I had a quarrel with my father and I didn't want to travel and adventure with him anymore. Because I was angry, I put this teddy bear into the sea and was separated from it by a land. How could this teddy bear appear here?"
The host smiled:
"What's so strange? It's probably because your father took him up and kept it, you don't know. This shows that your father loves you very much."
The chat was not too late, and everyone started to go back to their tents to sleep, leaving only the night watchman to keep watch.
Wu Long arranged for everyone to take turns to watch. He first guarded the first squad, and then asked people to get up and watch.
In the pseudo-documentary, the audience was watching the people in the camp through three cameras installed by the photographer.
The TV was edited quickly. When it was Dr. Cole's turn to wait for the fire, he was holding a teddy bear. Gradually, he fell asleep.
Suddenly, a dark shadow came out of the camera, grabbed Dr. Cole's son's feet and dragged it out of the camera.
The dragged Dr. Cole's son screamed in panic and woke everyone up.
Wu Long held a knife and a gun inserted between his waist, and was the first to chase him out.
The others got up and chased in the direction where the screams came.
The photographer did not forget his job, but woke up by the screams and turned on the camera and chased him out.
The cameraman's footage was edited in the play, shaking. The lights of the flashlight swayed in the jungle, forming a sharp contrast with the dark jungle. Cole's son screamed in the distance, making people feel gloomy and terrible.
The photographer finally caught up with everyone and saw everyone around Dr. Cole's son. Dr. Cole's son was sitting on the ground, looking panicked.
Wu Long and the doctor were examining Dr. Cole's son's feet. In the camera, Dr. Cole's son had scratches on his feet.
"What happened?" asked the photographer.
"I don't know." Dr. Cole's son was still trembling. "I sat in the fire to watch. I slowly felt my eyelids were heavy, so I dozed off. Suddenly, my hands grabbed my feet and dragged me away."
The host asked: "Did you see who dragged you away?"
Dr. Cole's son shook his head: "I didn't see it. It was very strong and fast. I didn't even have the chance to stand upright and observe it. I was dragged all the time, and the surrounding scenery flew past me. I was very scared and frightened at that time."
"Long, have you seen something?" the host asked Wu Long.
Wu Long shook his head: "It's too dark. He was dragged too fast, and the flashlight could not be aimed at it."
Take a look at the PhD in Biology for four weeks.
"Oh my God, this is the ghost tree!"
The doctor also found that Dr. Cole's son had a back of his head.
"There is no scratch on the back, but the clothes are broken. The head is fine. You don't feel the head hurt, right?"
Dr. Cole's son shook his head.
The doctor continued: "That is only scratches on both feet. The wound needs to be treated quickly to avoid being infected. Let's go, I will help you back to treat the wound."
Everyone returned to the camp together, and the doctor treated the wound for Dr. Cole's son.
"What exactly attacked us?" the host asked.
The photographer said: "Maybe it is the straitor in the ghost tree."
Everyone looked at the photographer.
The photographer shrugged and said:
"This is what the legend of the Amazon rainforest says. It is said that there is a little girl from afar. Her mother was too busy and didn't have time to pay attention to her, so she played in the jungle. One day, her doll fell into the river, and she went to the river to catch the dolls, but unfortunately fell into the river and drowned."
"The little girl's body has never been found. Later, people often drowned in the river. Everyone thought it was the little girl's soul and felt lonely, so they found someone to play with her."
"In order to avoid being introduced into the river and drown, the locals left dolls on the ghost tree as gifts for the little girl's soul. Perhaps this ghost tree is the legend."
The host shook his head:
"No, he wasn't dragged into the river."
The photographer said: "But he was dragged to the ghost tree, what does it mean? It means he took something he shouldn't have, and he took the gift that someone else left in the ghost tree! That teddy bear now belongs to the ghost tree!"
Everyone looked at the teddy bear beside Dr. Cole's son. The photographer's meaning was obvious. Dr. Cole's son took the doll of the ghost tree from the ghost tree, so he was dragged back to the ghost tree.
Dr. Cole's son grabbed the teddy bear and hugged it tightly in his arms.
"No, it's not like that. That's just a coincidence. This teddy bear is mine, what's wrong with me taking it back?" Dr. Cole's son was unwilling.
Wu Long turned his head to look at the ghost tree, then turned to ask Dr. Cole's son.
"You said this teddy bear is yours, so I ask you, how could this teddy bear be tied to a ghost tree?"
Dr. Cole's son replied: "I don't know."
The host replied for Dr. Cole's son: "It should be Dr. Cole who has been here and gave this teddy bear as a gift to the ghost tree, so it is tied to the ghost tree."
Wu Long asked Dr. Cole's son: "Do you agree with this statement?"
Dr. Cole's son thought about it and finally nodded.
"Since you agree with this statement, it means that your father gave the teddy bear to the ghost tree, so the teddy bear already belongs to the ghost tree. If you take the teddy bear, you just take something you shouldn't have. I hope you put it back, so that it will be a good thing for everyone."
The doctor of biology also advised Dr. Cole's son. "Put it back. If you don't, maybe the place you drag next time will not be a ghost tree, but a river. Do you think we can still be so lucky every time to save you?"
Even the host advised Dr. Cole's son.
"Put it back. Whether we are here to shoot a show or look for your father, we must respect local customs. You respect local customs on Father's Day and put this teddy bear here. You take away the teddy bear. Not only do you disrespect these customs, but you also do not respect your father."
"Okay, stop talking, I'll put it back."
The doctor treated the wound for Dr. Cole's son. Everyone accompanied Dr. Cole's son to the ghost tree and watched Dr. Cole's son tied the teddy bear to the reservoir.
Tied the teddy bear, everyone turned around and left.
Suddenly, a "pop" sound came from behind, and something seemed to fall to the ground.
Everyone turned to see that Dr. Cole's son's teddy bear fell to the ground.
"You didn't tie it up well," said the photographer.
"I'm tied up!" Dr. Cole's son refused to admit it.
He picked up the teddy bear and tied it back to the ghost tree. This time, everyone looked at the teddy bear for half a minute, and there was no abnormality before everyone turned around and left.
"Bang!"
Another sound of something falling came from behind everyone. Everyone's faces changed and they turned around to check.
"Shet!" Dr. Cole's son cursed.
