Chapter 184: Field Trip 9
It was 9:31 at the foot of the mountain. They had been climbing for so long, but the time had not changed at all.
Several people couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
"Rou Rou, is it just that our phones are all broken, or..."
Only the three of them understood what Han Nianlu had not finished saying, while Liang Yong looked at them in confusion.
"Someone is really causing trouble. They are trying to create panic. Don't be afraid. Just take the things I gave you."
"Take this."
She first gave instructions to the three of them, then took out a talisman and handed it to Liang Yong.
"Hurry up and put it away, don't let Rourou hold you back later."
Seeing that he was staring at the talisman stupidly and not taking it, Li Manxiang quickly took the talisman from Qing Yanrou and stuffed it into his hand.
Liang Yong quickly put away the talisman she stuffed into his hand. Even though he was in a daze now, he listened to Li Manxiang's words and stayed away from her without asking any questions and causing trouble.
"Okay, let's keep going."
Seeing that the four of them had put the talismans away, Qing Yanrou took the lead and continued to move forward.
"Rou Rou, are you still going?"
Han Nianlu had thought she was going back down the mountain, but now, knowing that there was something wrong with this mountain, she still wanted to go up.
"Lulu, you might have forgotten that there are three other boys. They don't have the luck that we have with the talisman that Rourou gave us."
After Yi Cong'an's reminder, Han Nianlu remembered that there were still a few people, and she could only accept her fate and continue to move forward.
The five people continued to climb up. They didn't know the time, but seeing that the sun was getting hotter and hotter, they thought it was getting late.
Fortunately, they brought enough water, which was enough for them to drink for the time being, and the snacks in Han Nianlu's bag also came in handy.
Now they finally understood why Qing Yanrou had just said that her snacks would come in handy. It turned out that they were here.
"Manxiang, what's going on?"
The road was getting wider at this moment. Liang Yong walked forward and walked side by side with Li Manxiang, asking cautiously.
"You'll find out in a moment. There are many bizarre things in this world."
Li Manxiang spoke mysteriously, and Liang Yong was confused. He didn't want to ask more questions without looking stupid, so he could only follow them obediently.
"Help—help—"
A few weak cries for help were heard from not far ahead, and everyone paused.
"It's Du Xuan and the others' voices. They're just ahead."
Liang Yong recognized the voices as his roommates', and he spoke anxiously as he heard their weak cries.
They quickened their pace as they walked upwards. After a while, their view opened up and they saw a wide concrete square. Du Xuan and the other three were tied to a cross.
The equipment they were holding in their hands was now piled up in a mess on the ground.
The sun in the sky was extremely scorching. They were scorched by the sun, their lips were cracked, and they were weakly shouting for help.
"Du Xuan!" Liang Yong shouted and was about to walk towards them.
"Wait."
Qing Yanrou stopped him in time.
"Hey, they're tied up there, aren't you going to let them down?"
"You're crazy! How were they tied up there? Where's their captor? You're just rushing over like that. Aren't you afraid that guy might have some trap waiting for you?"
Looking at his anxious look, Han Nianlu couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said.
We are all classmates, and seeing them like this will definitely make us worried, but we cannot throw our rationality behind because of worry.
Only then did Liang Yong come to his senses and realized that it was indeed as she said.
"Liang Yong, Liang Yong, please save us. You can't just ignore us because of that little conflict we had just had."
The distance between them was a bit far, and Han Nianlu deliberately lowered her voice, so the three people who were tied up opposite did not hear what she said.
They only saw him take two steps towards them and then retreat, and they hurriedly shouted excitedly.
"Just bear with it a little longer, I will come to rescue you."
"Student Qing, what's going on?"
Liang Yong unknowingly started questioning her, starting with Qing Yanrou.
Qing Yanrou did not answer him, but frowned slightly and looked at the tall platform behind them.
Han Nianlu and the others were afraid that Liang Yong would disturb her, so they pulled him aside and reminded him not to speak.
Behind Du Xuan and the others there was a large platform about three meters wide and two meters high. On the platform were some dark red things condensed into lumps, and there was a strong fishy smell in the air.
It seems that the dark red things on the platform are most likely the result of blood coagulating after drying.
That big platform was covered with that stuff. How much blood must have been shed?
"Rou Rou, why do I feel like there's something wrong with the sun?"
Yi Cong'an moved in front of Qing Yanrou, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and spoke softly.
Her lips were starting to crack due to lack of water.
"Drink some water first, what's wrong?"
Qing Yanrou also noticed something strange, but Yi Cong'an was just an ordinary person, but her observation skills were indeed excellent, and she could always find the key problems.
"I checked the weather last night. Today's high should be around 29 degrees Celsius, but look at the temperature of the sun, it's almost 40 degrees Celsius."
As she spoke, she fanned herself with her palms.
Only then did Qing Yanrou notice that they were all almost dehydrated from the heat.
Because of the marks on her body, she had been wearing long sleeves and had a cooling talisman on her body, so she didn't notice their condition.
"Here, take it."
She took out a few cooling talismans from her bag and handed them to them. Fortunately, she had brought the talismans she had drawn last night with her.
After receiving the talismans, the four of them sighed in comfort. The feeling of being melted at any time finally disappeared.
At this moment, Liang Yong looked at Qing Yanrou with different eyes. She is worthy of being Manxiang's roommate. She is so outstanding!
"There is indeed something wrong with this sun."
Seeing that their enthusiasm had eased, she spoke quietly.
Unlike them who were in a cool and comfortable state, the three people hanging on the cross had been exposed to the sun for too long. Now they felt dizzy and their heads were completely sunburned.
"Just stand in this circle and don't move. No matter what happens, don't come out. Remember?"
The four of them saw Qing Yanrou draw a circle around them with her bare hands, but they couldn't see where the circle was.
Just when I was about to ask her where the circle was, I saw that there was a white line on the flat ground where there was nothing just now, which was surrounded by each other and formed a circle.
This is a bit like the circle that Sun Wukong drew for Tang Seng.
They didn't ask any more questions and just nodded in response to her obediently.
Qing Yanrou looked up at the sun, which had not changed and was still emitting scorching heat. A scornful smile appeared on her lips, and she casually walked towards the people who were tied up in the center of the square.
