Sun Mingjian said sternly, "What are you doing up the mountain? This is not the place for you. Hurry down and get down the mountain before it gets dark."
Zeng Chunjin was curious about their attire. He thought the Taoists were not here to play. He said, "We are here to have fun in the mountains. Uncle, why are you dressed like this and have such good skills? What are you doing here?"
Before Sun Mingjian could reply, Sun Jiaying said, "We don't need to tell ordinary people like you why we're here. Please hurry down the mountain."
When Sun Najuan saw Sun Jiaying's appearance clearly, her heart was shaken. She actually met the woman in her father's study album here!
Her heart was instantly filled with anger, which overshadowed her fear. "This mountain is not yours, so we won't go down!"
Her mother said the woman in the photo album was her father's ex-wife's child, which made Sun Najuan even more determined. She was afraid, but she continued, "If you can walk up this mountain, we can too!"
Sun Mingjian advised earnestly, "This mountain is dangerous. You saw the tiger just now, and there's more than one tiger in the mountain. I advise you to get down the mountain quickly."
Sun Najuan said, "There are five of you and five of us. Can't one of you protect one of us?"
Sun Mingjian: “…” Are all girls in the world so unreasonable nowadays?
Sun Jiaying looked at them coldly and said, "You're dreaming. You still want us to protect you? Who do you think you are? I won't let you down!"
The other members of the Sun family were also speechless. Saving others is a kindness engraved in their genes, but there is no part of their genes that allows them to be a good person or a sucker.
Sun Mingjian and his colleagues had important matters to attend to and could not agree to their ridiculous request. Besides, saving their lives was already a great kindness, and they had no responsibility or obligation to protect strangers.
So Sun Mingjian and the other four ignored them, said "goodbye" and walked forward.
"Hey! Why are you leaving?" Sun Najuan looked at their backs as they left and wanted to follow them, but they had a disagreement among themselves.
Some people want to go down the mountain, while others want to stay on the mountain.
Huang Xiaoman was still in shock, tears still hanging in the corners of her eyes, "Let's go down the mountain."
Yang Shengyu said, "I agree to go down the mountain. Although the tiger has been killed, no one knows how many tigers there are in the mountain. I think we should go down the mountain."
Qiu Xifeng said: "I think the tiger is not that scary. Those Taoist priests can deal with it in a few moves. We will be fine if we follow those Taoist priests." She looked at the Taoist priest's back as he left, her eyes full of admiration.
"I still want to go down the mountain." Huang Xiaoman insisted on going down the mountain. Her legs became weak after seeing the big wild tiger just now. She decided to go to tourist attractions next time she climbs the mountain.
Sun Najuan glared at them in dissatisfaction and said, "If you want to go down, go ahead. You really have the courage of a rat in a human body!"
In the end, the five-person climbing team split into two, Sun Najuan, Zeng Chunjin and Qiu Xifeng stayed, while Huang Xiaoman and Yang Shengyu listened to the advice and went down the mountain.
After parting, Sun Najuan and the other three hurried to chase the Taoist priest in front. After five minutes, no matter how fast they ran, they were still some distance away from the Taoist priest in front.
But after turning a corner, when they caught up with them, the group of Taoists had disappeared.
"Where are the people? Why are they gone?"
Sun Najuan glared at Qiu Xifeng and said, "It's all your fault for running so slowly!"
Qiu Xifeng had just sprained her ankle and was indeed a bit slow. "So, should we continue forward? Or retreat?"
Sun Najuan said, "Why retreat? Keep going forward! They're right in front of us!"
As they walked, they found that there was no road ahead. They wanted to go back, but found that the road they came from was also gone. They were lost.
There were only three of them on such a huge mountain, and the occasional sounds of wild beasts could be heard. They began to regret and feel afraid.
Qiu Xifeng complained, "It's all your fault! If you hadn't insisted on staying on the mountain, we might have already been on the bus back to the hotel."
Sun Najuan refused to take the blame and loudly retorted, "Did I beg you to stay? It was obviously you who wanted to stay, and now you blame me. How ridiculous!"
"Also! If it weren't for you, we would have caught up with those Taoist priests. We wouldn't have gotten lost!"
Zeng Chunjin quickly advised, "We're all already on the mountain now. There's no point in complaining anymore. We need internal unity now!"
After that, he said to Sun Najuan, "Najuan, please speak softly. Although we have small knives for self-defense, they won't be of any use if we encounter a large beast."
"Hmph!" Although Sun Najuan was unhappy, she also knew that she should speak more quietly at this time.
At this time, strange noises came from the woods one after another.
“Ouch—”
"Boom——"
Qiu Najuan looked panicked and said, "It's a tiger! The sound of a tiger! Let's hide quickly!" There was jungle all around, and it seemed to be the same no matter where they hid. She was almost crying in anxiety.
Sun Najuan was also anxious, but she remained calm. "Why are you so anxious? Besides the tiger's roar, there's another sound."
Zeng Chunjin patted his thigh and said, "It sounds like a gunshot."
Sun Najuan said nervously: "Gun? That means there are other people!"
As soon as the words fell, Qiu Xifeng looked around and shouted, "Help! We are here! Is there anyone here? Help!"
Sun Najuan quickly stopped her and said, "Fool! Aren't you afraid of attracting wild animals?"
Qiu Xifeng's face turned pale and she said, "Sun Najuan, stop being such a pessimist!"
"No, do you have any other way to make them notice us? I don't want to be eaten by a tiger."
Sun Najuan really didn't have any good ideas. "Then go ahead and scream."
Qiu Xifeng said, "My voice is not loud enough, let's all shout together."
"I'm here," Zeng Chunjin yelled at the top of her lungs, "Help! Is there anyone who can save us?"
Ten minutes later, there was movement in the grass in front of them. It was the people they had summoned, not the beasts.
They recruited real people, soldiers and investigators.
There are a total of 16 soldiers and investigators, 12 of whom are here. They were ordered to come here for investigation.
The leading soldier, Zhong Guangqiang, swept his cold eyes over them and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Zeng Chunjin felt an invisible pressure pressing down on him. He said, "We were originally going up the mountain for a trip, but we got lost."
After a pause, he continued, "Can we follow you?"
One of the investigators said, "This isn't good, is it? We're not here to have fun."
Ye Haiqian and Hu Dongmei are two professors in the investigation team. Each of them brought four team members to Fairy Peak for investigation, mainly to investigate the reasons for the changes in Fairy Peak during this period.
