The two government officials were called Sun Xing and Zhong Gaoyong.
turn out to be.
These two people were so greedy during the day that they secretly ran to the outskirts of the forest without telling the others and picked a few wild fruits to quench their thirst.
Those are all ordinary wild fruits.
I eat it regularly. It’s not a poisonous fruit. I’ve eaten it before and it’s fine.
But somehow, after eating this time, people started to have stomachaches and their lips turned black, which were clearly signs of poisoning.
Fortunately, the old Taoist priest in the team was a wandering Taoist priest with rich experience in survival in the wild... When the old Taoist priest induced vomiting and fed a homemade detoxification pill each, plus a crazy meal of water to dilute it, he was finally saved.
Get two lives back.
After this interlude, the night was already very deep.
Drowsiness sets in.
After leaving a few people to keep watch, others began to fall asleep.
In the cold night, only the bonfire in the center of the crowd was still flickering and burning.
At midnight.
When everyone was asleep, Sun Xing was woken up by the urge to urinate.
In the darkness, he weakly opened his eyes and looked outside. At this time, the world outside the circle of horses was so pitch black that he could not see his fingers.
In the dark world, only the bonfire beside you brings the only light.
Sun Xing stood up a little helplessly, his face was still pale, and he did not recover so quickly.
Although he was saved by an old Taoist priest, he almost lost half of his life.
I'm afraid that if I don't take a month to recuperate my body, I won't be able to recover from the loss of energy and spirit.
"I drank too much water from Taoist Chen, and now I feel the urge to urinate. If I had known better, I wouldn't have been so greedy as to pick those wild fruits and eat them. It's really unlucky for me. When it gets up tomorrow, your grandpa Sun Xing, I will
Use a fire to burn away those poisonous wild fruits that harm people."
Sun Xingxi stood up and was about to duck out of the pitch-black sky outside the horse pen.
"Where are you going?"
Suddenly, in the dark night, a voice suddenly sounded, which almost frightened Sun Xing, who was holding back his urine so much that his body was slightly bowed when walking, and he peed in his crotch on the spot.
Sun Xing looked for his voice and saw that it was Young Master Jin An who was meditating with his eyes closed and had been on high alert. Hearing his movements to get up, he opened his eyes and looked over.
"It turns out that Mr. Jin An was keeping vigil... Mr. Jin An, maybe when Daochang Chen was helping me detoxify at night, he poured too much water. I felt urgent to urinate in the middle of the night, so I wanted to find a place to put the water down..." Sun Xing answered truthfully.
"Find someone to go with you, don't be left alone." Jin An said cautiously.
"well……"
Sun Xing walked towards the other brothers in the Yali who were keeping vigil at night, intending to ask them to go with him. Just then, among the sleeping crowd, a man stood up and said that he also had an urgent need to urinate, and offered to accompany Sun Xing.
This person is none other than Zhong Gaoyong.
Jin An watched the two people walk out of the horse circle together, and he closed his eyes again to practice, which was both practice and vigil.
Being in a dark wilderness with no village or shop, he was really worried about letting ordinary government officials keep watch at night, so he kept vigilant while meditating and practicing.
call--
Huhu——
In the quiet night, only the sound of the wind in the wild and the crackling of the bonfire were left.
It’s time for a cup of tea.
Jin Anxin felt suspicious.
It would be too long for Sun Xing and Zhong Gaoyong to go, right?
Could it be that the poison has not been completely detoxified and I encountered diarrhea again midway?
"It's better to go over and look for it."
Jin An was a little worried. Just as he opened his eyes and stood up, suddenly, panicked screams rang out in the night.
"No! Why did Sun Xing and Lao Zhong disappear?"
"No! Someone is missing!"
"Someone is missing!"
Jin An looked around in surprise and saw that one of the government officials responsible for the night watch was shouting in panic. At this time, the other person's face looked frightened and frightened, as if he had been frightened by something.
"What's going on?"
Everyone else was also awakened from their sleep by the panicked voice, and asked hurriedly what was going on?
"Just now, just now, Sun Xing and Lao Zhong went outside to release the water... But when they finished releasing the water, they did not come back immediately, but walked towards the forest where Capt. Feng did not let us go..."
"I knew something was wrong, and I just wanted to wake everyone up, but..."
"Before I had time to speak, Sun Xing and Lao Zhong disappeared right under my nose!"
A night watchman was shaking, and he stammered out of fear.
Capt. Feng's face darkened: "You mean, they entered that forest?"
Unexpectedly, the yamen servant turned pale with fright and shook his head: "No! No!"
"Neither Sun Xing nor Lao Zhong, did not, did not enter the forest..."
"They were walking towards the forest that Capt. Feng wouldn't let us get close to during the day. Halfway there, the person... suddenly disappeared! It was out of thin air!"
call--
call--
In the middle of the night with the hazy moon above their heads, after listening to the colleague's words, the other government officials felt the night wind blowing to the skin of their necks, suddenly arousing a chill.
It feels like there is a dark wind around me.
It's so scary that my scalp feels numb.
"Come on, take us there and take a look."
sulfuric acid!
Jin An drew his sword out of its sheath, took Feng Baotou, the old Taoist priest, Monk Pu Zhi, and the government servant who had witnessed the mysterious disappearance of Sun Xing and Zhong Gaoyong, and went over to check the situation.
Feng Captou asked the remaining government officials to stay where they were, keeping a high degree of vigilance and keeping an eye on the horses and supplies.
"He, they suddenly disappeared near here."
Holding a torch, the government servant, trembling with fear, led a group of people to an open space.
However, there is nothing unusual around here.
Several people searched back and forth several times, but found no places to hide people, such as dark pits and caves.
"Come on!"
"There are four footprints on this piece of turf, they should be those of the two missing government officials!"
The old Taoist priest who bent down to look for clues gave a loud shout when he found the clue.
Several people ran over to take a look and indeed found four footprints.
"Hey, there are four footprints here too."
"There are some here too."
"These footprints are all heading towards that forest!"
"Impossible! Impossible! I clearly saw them disappear suddenly out of thin air, how could they still go out so far!" At night, the officer in the team screamed in horror.
Xixisuosuo.
Xixisuosuo.
"What sound?"
"It sounded like footsteps on the grass!"
"The sound is coming from over there!"
"Catch up and see who is faking it!"
Jin An, Feng Baotou, and Pu Hui, these three brave masters, were as agile as leopards and rushed out to catch up with the footsteps in the dark night.
Xixisuosuo——
Under the dim moonlight, the three of them felt chills in their hearts and goosebumps on their backs!
I saw two people walking together on the apparently empty grassland in front of me. Two pairs of shoes were leaving messy footprints on the ground.
In the darkness, the footprints continued to move forward.
But there was no one there, just empty darkness and silence.
After a while, the footprints entered the dark and silent ghost forest.
Under the dim moonlight, the atmosphere in the dark night began to become strange and distorted.
These untrodden footprints...
Are they the ones of Sun Xing and Zhong Gaoyong who disappeared out of thin air?
