Jiang Yimei: "No one would be idle enough to play around with or raise such a thing, especially a top student like him; also, don't overly demonize people who grew up in the mountains. Apart from their environment being different from ours, they are no different from us."
Yao Yao seemed to be thinking about it and felt that what Jiang Yimei said made sense.
It was already past 7 p.m., and everyone was hungry after a long day. Jiang Yimei took out her own dry food from her backpack and had dinner with Yaoyao.
...
On the other side, Lin Congzhi and his two companions could hardly find their way; the weeds were so tall and dense that there seemed to be no gaps around them.
This is the most disheartening situation because you've lost your way, and all you can do is either backtrack, stay put, or go to the wrong place.
"Mr. Lin, there's no way out, what do we do?"
There is definitely a path, but I don't know which way is the right one.
With nowhere else to turn, I had to rely on myself.
Walking out to a slightly open area, Lin Congzhi looked around and gazed at his surroundings.
With the help of the faint moonlight, he saw a high mountain peak right in front of him.
Judging by sight, it's about a few kilometers away, and the vertical height is no more than 100 meters.
In other words, the summit is just around the corner, very, very close.
"We'll be at the top of the mountain soon, everyone hang in there a little longer."
Seeing his excitement, two bodyguards came over and, looking around, realized that they were indeed close to the summit.
With no way to go, how should they proceed?
"Mr. Lin, let's get down to something more practical."
Quenching thirst with the sight of plums is not a good idea; they no longer have that kind of mindset.
Now that we have a direction, we can just follow this ridge uphill to reach the summit.
Lin Congzhi said excitedly, "We are currently at a point on a mountain ridge. As long as we walk up this ridge, we will reach the top of the mountain."
After taking a look, they felt the approach was correct, so the two bodyguards did as Boss Lin instructed.
Although the rain had stopped, the strong wind made the raindrops in the woods patter like pearls falling onto a jade plate.
These sounds are caused by water droplets falling from the leaves onto the ground.
Normally it wouldn't be a big deal, but being in the middle of nowhere, especially at night, hearing these sounds still makes you tremble.
A strong wind blew by, carrying with it a mournful sound that echoed through the forest, instantly turning the woods eerie and terrifying.
As they walked, the two bodyguards felt a chill run down their spines and stopped in their tracks.
It wasn't until he bumped into one of the bodyguards' backs that Lin Congzhi realized there was something wrong with the two bodyguards.
Why aren't you leaving?
"Mr. Lin, could there be something fishy going on?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Congzhi finally understood why the two bodyguards hadn't left.
He also heard terrifying sounds coming from the forest, but they were caused by the strong winds and there was nothing to be afraid of.
There are no ghosts in the world. Ghosts are created by the mind. Don't pay attention to such things and keep moving forward.
The two bodyguards were incredibly impressed with Mr. Lin, who remained so calm, composed, and insightful even in such an environment.
They had also heard scientists say that there are no ghosts in this world, and all ghosts and monsters originate from within the mind. As long as they don't have this kind of fear, they will be fine.
After figuring it out, they took a step forward and continued walking.
After climbing for a while, they suddenly heard a chilling baby's cry coming from the bushes not far away.
Holy crap!
Even though I believe there are no ghosts, what exactly is this sound? Can anyone explain it?
