He suddenly stopped and pointed to a bunch of fallen bushes in front of him: "Look there."
Half a piece of blue cloth was hanging on the branches of the bushes, and there were traces of burns on the edge of the cloth.
Zhao Wei picked up the cloth and sniffed it. In addition to the smell of fireworks, there was also a faint smell of... camphor? This smell shouldn't appear in the mountains.

A young man pointed to a tree stump not far away, on which a crooked arrow was carved with a knife.
Zhao Wei's heart skipped a beat. This didn't look good!
He went up the mountain to look for big stuff, not to look for disaster.
The arrowhead on the stump was deeply engraved, and there was fresh resin sticky on the rolled-up sawdust.

Zhao Wei waved his machete and asked the boys to disperse.
He circled the stump twice and found half a faded red cloth with the words "HELP" written on it, pressed under the bushes where the arrow was pointing.
