Thinking of this possibility, Xu Ming was shocked. A cold chill shot up from his tailbone and quickly spread to his limbs.

It was obviously summer, but Xu Ming broke out in a cold sweat.

Bud didn't notice anything unusual about Xu Ming. He just sighed again and said, "Mr. Xu, please take good care of yourself. I'll leave first."

He stood up with a sigh and walked towards the door.

Xu Ming was about to speak but stopped.

The moment the door closed, Xu Ming looked back with some disappointment.

Reason told Xu Ming that he had nothing to blame Uncle Bud. Everyone in Xinxi Village knew that Guanhead Rock was very dangerous.

They are just unarmed ordinary people. It is human nature to be afraid and not want to go. He cannot demand them with his own demands.

Not long after, the door was opened again, and Xiao Ding came in from the outside.

"Hey, it's old hen soup. I can smell the fragrance outside."

Xiao Ding rubbed his hands, rushed to the bed, and drooled looking at the chicken and chicken soup in the thermos, "Guest, don't waste it, eat it quickly."

Xu Ming was not in the mood to eat and said, "I don't want to eat. You can eat whatever you want."

"Really or not? Uncle Bud and the others specially prepared this for you, why don't you give it to me?" Xiao Ding pretended to be reserved.

Xu Ming glanced at him and said, "If you don't want to eat, the door is behind you."

"Eat, eat, eat. If you want to eat, I'll leave after eating."

Xiao Ding chuckled twice, sat down and took the chopsticks, and said, "I'm starving to death. I've been patronizing you all morning and I haven't even had time to have breakfast."

Xiao Ding took a big sip of chicken soup and praised: "It's delicious and not greasy. Sister Yangcuo's cooking is really amazing. If she hadn't been too young, I would have wanted to marry her and eat her cooking every day."

.”

Seeing Xu Ming lying on the bed with empty eyes, Xiao Ding tore up a chicken leg and said, "Let me tell you, since everyone is back safely, don't even think about..."

"You eat my chicken legs and help me find a few people to go into the mountain." Xu Ming suddenly said.

The piece of meat that Xiao Ding had just bitten was instantly stuck in his throat: "——Cough cough cough... cough cough..."

Xu Ming couldn't help but feel reminded, "Take a sip of chicken soup and go down."

Xiao Ding didn't dare to drink anymore. He stood up and went straight to the table, poured a glass of water and drank it down before he felt better.

"Guest, you... I just took a sip of soup. Is this soup so expensive?"

Xu Mingdao: "I just want to ask, can you help?"

Xiao Ding hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "I really can't help you with this."

Xu Ming closed his eyes, waved his hand and said: "Let's go, let's go."

Xiao Ding hesitated to speak and looked at Xu Ming: "Then this chicken soup and meat..."

"Take it, take it, take it down and eat it."

"No...what's going on?"

"Eat your food with peace of mind." Xu Ming said with a headache.

Xiao Ding immediately became happy, Ma Liu covered the lid of the thermos pot, and walked to the door, "Okay, you can keep it here while I leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ding immediately opened the door and went out, then closed the door again, all at once.

Xu Ming leaned against the bedside, looking at the ceiling with some cracks in the wall, and then at the bag placed on the chair.

He suddenly decided something and his eyes became firm.

…

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Ding couldn't stand it anymore, so he called his colleagues to change shifts, and he went back to catch up on his sleep.

As soon as Xiao Ding left, Xu Ming came down from upstairs.

The staff at the counter immediately stood up and said: "Mr. Xu, Brother Ding asked you to just call me if you have anything to do. You just woke up, so you'd better rest more."

Xu Mingdao: "It's okay, I'll go out for a walk, you can do your business."

The staff looked at Xu Ming, who was neatly dressed and carrying a bag, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "But...are you going on a long trip?"

If he wasn't walking slowly and limping, it would be impossible to tell that Xu Ming's physical condition was not that good at this time.

Xu Ming said, "Go out for a walk."

"But……"

"It's nothing, is it possible that your brother Ding wants you to mind your own business?" Xu Ming frowned.

The staff fell silent and stopped talking.

Xu Ming quickly speeded up, went downstairs and went out.

The staff member behind thought for a while, then took out his cell phone and called Xiao Ding.

…

After leaving the guest house, Xu Ming walked towards the road he remembered.

On the way, Xu Ming met many villagers. They all stopped and looked at him with admiration. Probably because he came back from Guillotine alive.

Xu Ming finally had a rest and was somewhat energetic. He didn't want to waste time. When he met the villagers who greeted him, he ignored them and just hurried on.

At his current speed, he couldn't stop and could barely reach Guillotine before dark.

To be honest, Xu Ming still doesn’t know where the Guanhead Stone is.

When he went into the mountain, he didn't even see the broken head stone. It was so embarrassing that it was broken like this.

Soon, Xu Ming reached the river. After carefully crossing it, he walked up the hillside. When he reached the top of the hill, he ran into trouble again.

Xu Ming hesitated whether to take the original path or return along the path pointed by his neighbor.

If he takes his original route and encounters that weird section of road again, and gets lost in it unknowingly, he never knows when he will realize that he is taking a detour.

If you take the route pointed by your neighbor, it will take a long time.

After struggling for a moment, Xu Ming gritted his teeth and finally chose the path pointed by his neighbor.

Otherwise, since it is a road considered safe by the neighbors, if the neighbors want to leave, they should also take this road. What if they can meet on the road?

"Neighbor, neighbor, you must go this way..."

If not... he might have dug all over the Guillotine. Anyway, he brought enough food and water this time, as well as a sleeping bag!

Maybe he can take this opportunity to figure out the red sedan chair made of human skin.

Xu Ming looked down at his legs, took a deep breath, found a branch as a crutch, and set foot on the road.

Having gone through it once, Xu Ming knew most of the way.

In addition, there are traces of him walking on the road, so Xu Ming doesn't have to worry about going astray.

The only thing is that Xu Ming overestimated his physical strength.

After walking for a short time, Xu Ming's injury on his leg started to sting a little, so he had to stop and rest for a while. As he walked, Xu Ming simply took painkillers.

Xu Ming kept walking and estimated that he had walked most of the way before looking at the watch he had specially brought.

Six pm.

The sun has also set in the west, and the light has become darker.

Xu Ming continued on his way and finally arrived at the place where he woke up before around eight o'clock.

Xu Ming was actually not sure, but he saw traces of someone lying on the grass on the slope.

Apart from him, there should be no one else.

Panting, Xu Ming rested for a while, struggled to climb up the slope, and sat down on the grass.

This time Xu Ming brought a map and marked the direction as he walked. He had already marked the location of the Guillotine before starting.

At first glance, the Guanhead Stone is to the west of this place, about ten kilometers away in a straight line, but...

"It's strange. There is a ridge between this place and the Duanhead Stone area. If it was a neighbor who sent me away..."

Xu Ming suddenly stopped talking and looked down at his hands.

Just now his hand touched some sticky liquid, and when he saw it, it turned out to be blood!
