Chapter 2 A friend from heaven
The next evening, Duke watched Dong Feng and Cai Siqiang go down the mountain from a distance, then avoided the clearing of the scenic area staff on the top of the mountain, and all took the cableway to leave. He watched the crimson sunset in the distance fall into the mountains bit by bit, and the twilight surges from all directions like a tide.
The mountain wind blows a wild pine forest in the distance and makes a whistling sound like waves. The occasional cry of tired birds in the forest, and the sound of various insects one after another makes the surroundings look empty and silent. I can't help but feel a palpitations in my heart.
But that's the case, Duke had no choice but to accept his fate and prepare to survive this unforgettable night.
The top of Xiling Mountain is an observation deck that can overlook the large plain dozens of miles away. It has already flattened a large piece of flat land from the thorns. It was originally a great place for camping, but because the scenic spot was unmanaged at night, tourists were not allowed to camp on it for safety reasons.
Duke took out the mountaineering bag hidden in the bushes on the roadside and opened the camping tent provided by Cai Siqiang. Although it was hot summer at the foot of the mountain, the mountain was as cold as the spring warmth. He had to lay a thick moisture-proof mat before he could set up a tent and smash the thick windproof nails into the ground that had been trampled as hard as stone by tourists. Even if he encountered a strong wind of seven or eight, the tent would be as safe as a rock and would not be at risk of being blown away by the wind.
It was so dark tonight that the dark clouds in the sky overlapped layer by layer, covering the mountain moon. After nightfall, except for the distance, there were occasionally a few rays of light from the homes of several mountain villagers, flashing like fireflies in the dark mountains, and there was no brightness.
There were dark dust everywhere, and occasionally there were a few birds singing, Duke was a little scared to hear it - to him, it was almost the same as the howling of something, especially the whistling sounds of the wind that seemed to blow the woods on and off, which made him feel even more heart-wrenching.
Duke hurriedly hid in the tent, turned on the tent light, and took out the iPhone 4 provided by Cai Siqiang with tremblingly, preparing to fight these indescribable fears.
"Although Cai Cai sometimes can't control her lower body, she really has nothing to say to her friends. Otherwise, it's really hard to spend the long night." Duke felt a little more at ease after opening the iPhone 4. Thinking of Cai Siqiang's attentiveness, he felt a little more grateful to Cai Siqiang, and soon immersed himself in the middle.
In that kind of world where pig's feet is invincible, Duke, who seemed to have transformed into pig's feet, unknowingly felt that his fear had dissipated a lot.
I don’t know how long it took, Duke, who had been sitting cross-legged on the moisture-proof mat, felt his legs and feet felt unbearable, and he wanted to get up and go out to move his muscles and bones.
Suddenly, I heard a quiet and quiet sound that I had never heard before, which was even more subdued than the sound of thunder in the midsummer sky. The originally lively insects and birds in the four fields disappeared all at once, as if they were suddenly imprisoned. Duke was like on the noisy street, and suddenly found that there was no sound around, and all the people around him turned into silent ghosts.
An indescribable fear suddenly surged in my heart, and my heart beat violently, as if I was about to jump out of my chest. The cold sweat that emerged from my body not only formed dew on Duke's forehead, but also made Duke's single clothes wet instantly. The wet single clothes tightly pressed against my body made Duke extremely unhappy. What was this situation?
Duke, who was shaking all over, felt like an ancient corpse frozen in electric shock, and motionlessly felt the ground trembling, like a heavy truck driving by, and then a gloomy light that had never been seen shone through the tent and shone on Duke's hand. Then Duke saw that his palm suddenly turned into a clearly visible skeleton!
"Ghost!" Duke screamed in his heart, his extremely horrified lips trembled, but he could not make any sound. Faced with such an unheard of strange situation, Duke was already extremely scared at this moment, and his violently stretched heart was almost on the verge of breaking.
Such a supernatural phenomenon has subverted some of Duke's inherent understanding. The shadow of his childhood suddenly appeared in front of him. Thinking of a skeleton or monster outside, Duke wished he would fall into a coma immediately.
However, fear seemed to imprison Duke's thoughts, making him not even have the chance to fall into a coma. Then he heard a rhythmic sound of "bang bang bang" coming, constantly approaching the tent. Finally, Duke, who had accumulated fear to the extreme, seemed to feel a strange magic power surged in his body, and regained his ability to move again.
He crawled out of the tent tremblingly, and he could no longer bear the feeling of waiting for death in the tent. He wanted to go out and see what monster it was. Even if he died, he would have to die!
Outside was a world of glorious lights of indescribable colors. A luminous disc-shaped object stood high above ten meters away, and a few meters away was a robot, which was ufo!
Not a skeleton ghost, nor a long-tongued female ghost with a beautiful and white hair. Duke suddenly felt relieved, and the shadow left since childhood disappeared without realizing it.
In fact, as he grows older, materialistic thinking in Duke's mind has gradually gained the upper hand. However, the psychological barriers accumulated over the years cannot be broken by self-learning. Therefore, Cai Siqiang's theory of boldness has some truth on this point, but it must have some suitable and severe impact.
If Duke just spent the night in a casual manner as he reads the novel, although it would eliminate some of Duke's psychological hints of fear of darkness, the effect would definitely not be as immediate as it is now, and it might return to the same as before in a while.
It is undeniable that although there are countless good or bad alien images in various films and TV series, compared to ghosts, aliens are still more curious than fear in the minds of most people. Therefore, Duke slightly regained some courage, with three points of fear and seven points of curiosity saying "hello, e.t" in stuttering English.
Among the alien movies he has watched, the most familiar one is e.t. Maybe he is a relative of this. Duke actually absurdly thought that aliens can speak English. Are aliens or relatives of the United States?
