At night, the village in the barren mountains and wild mountains is completely silent, so the sound of snoring, which is full of sleepiness, is particularly obvious.

It was agreed that the two would take shifts, and the thin man who had checked Bai Tanxia's status at the beginning now grabbed the alarm clock and got up.

He was about to go to the bathroom to change shifts, when he heard the sound of snoring, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

Then he walked quickly to the woodshed where the people were locked up. Seeing that the fat man was sleeping more soundly than him, the skinny man stepped forward in two or three steps, and when he took a closer look, he found that the door lock was on the ground, and the door was already open, and his heart skipped a beat.

Pushing the door in, and seeing that there was no one inside, only a few ropes were left on the ground, and the last bit of drowsiness left in the skinny man's mind was gone.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep! Still fucking sleep! Everyone is lost!"

The thin man's howl immediately woke up the fat man.

"Didn't I let you watch it! Where are people!"

"I...I..." The fat man was dumbfounded.

The thin man didn't have the time to talk to people about this, so he just picked up the flashlight, one by one, and walked out with the fat man.

"Look for it quickly! Maybe you haven't run far yet!"

"If this servant is lost, I'll see how you explain to your employer!"

No one should sleep now, the two of them turned on the flashlights, and saw a little footprint outside the door of the firewood room, and immediately followed the traces to find out.

The place they picked was an unwanted abandoned house next to the village, surrounded by dirt roads, so they could still see a little footprint walking with the flashlight.

The two followed the clues, thinking that the person hadn't gone far, but after chasing, they reached the cement road.

The cement road is not as soft as the dirt road. It is so black that nothing can be seen, let alone footprints, and there are no clues after chasing them.

"Further on, there is a village..." The fat man wiped his sweat, feeling a little uncertain.

The area in front is almost close to the place where there are villagers, if that woman runs in...

The thin man spat, "You can't startle the snake."

"...I will look for it tomorrow, and I will deal with it from the employer."

The rest of the money has not been received yet, and the loss must not be known to the higher-ups.

The night is hazy, and it is in a remote mountain village, covered with layers of trees, it is not an exaggeration to say that you can't see your fingers.

Bai Tanxia kept walking along the road, but she couldn't tell which direction she was going.

The road was so dark that there was not even a street lamp, so she could only rely on the moonlight emerging from the clouds as illumination occasionally, so that she could avoid some obstacles a little.

I don't know how long he can walk, Bai Tanxia only feels that his strength is getting less and less, and his eyes are too tired to open.

But there are trees all around, maybe there will be wild animals.

Bai Tan Xiaqiang hurried on the road with all his energy, and when he was about to collapse on the road, he vaguely saw a few houses close together in the distance, like a village.

She instinctively wanted to ask for help, but when she stepped forward, she was afraid that those people were already waiting for her there. After hesitating, she looked around, only a few haystacks were piled up beside her.

...better than throwing yourself into a trap.

Bai Tanxia made up her mind, directly peeled off the outer layer of the haystack, and stuffed herself in quietly.

Can only hope those people don't find themselves here.

She was thinking in her heart, but her eyelids couldn't stop fighting. After a short pause, her body's fatigue also followed.

Whether to sleep or not is often the most tormenting, Bai Tanxia hides in the haystack with fear, listening to the sound of the wind and grass around her, her nerves twisted into a tight thread, and she dare not relax for a long time.

Until the first ray of morning light jumped out of the east, a corner of the sky was gradually enlarged and smudged by fish-belly white.

I don't know whose chicken crowed, which suddenly woke up Bai Tanxia who was sleepy in the haystack and didn't dare to close his eyes and relax his vigilance.

Bai Tanxia raised her eyes in a daze, looked at the already bright sky for a while, and then returned to her body, remembering her current situation.

She cautiously took advantage of the cover of the haystack, looked left and right and found no one, and was about to get out of the haystack, but the pain caused her to subconsciously "hiss" when she moved.

It would be nice if my husband was here.

Bai Tanxia subconsciously thought that she remembered her husband's cell phone number, but now she doesn't have a cell phone...

The thoughts that haven't found a solution are suddenly interrupted by the sound of hungry stomach, and the body has been tense all night, and finally protested to Bai Tanxia at this moment.

Don't talk about eating, Bai Tanxia didn't even drink a sip of water last night when she was so busy escaping.

She rubbed her throbbing stomach, her face almost wrinkled into a bun.

Now that the sky is bright and the eyesight is open, Bai Tanxia looked around, but at a glance, there was smoke from cooking in the distance, as if someone was lighting a fire and cooking there.

She hesitated for a moment, but still took a tentative step towards the place where the cooking smoke was.

The closer you get, the clearer you can see the outline of the house.

Five or six houses are arranged in a well-arranged manner beside the mountain. It looks like a small village.

Bai Tanxia walked over quietly, leaning against the side of the road to survey the surrounding environment, and found that there was a river next to the village.

She was so hungry that she wanted to find someone to ask if she could borrow her mobile phone and call her husband to pick her up, but after walking through the two gates, she didn't find any villagers. Instead, there was a person sitting by the river.

Bai Tanxia walked over little by little, but could only see the thin back of the other party in white clothes and black trousers, a drawing board in front of the other party, and a car parked beside him.

"You, hello..." She whispered softly, huddling her whole body behind a tree, ready to turn around and run if something went wrong.

Gu Liangsheng, who was starting to paint, heard a voice behind him, which was still very faint, and immediately turned around in doubt.

Then I saw a little girl with a dirty body and face hiding behind a tree, looking at him timidly, like a frightened deer with a certain degree of vigilance.

Bai Tanxia suppressed her fear, saw the other party turned around and saw herself, and tried to amplify her voice. "Can you lend me your phone?"

She looked at the black-haired brother in the white shirt in front of her. The gentle and clean demeanor of the other person made her feel a little relaxed, and a little courage emerged in her heart.

"All right." Bai Tanxia's voice trembled, "I, I want to go home..."

Gu Liangsheng looked at the other party's messy body, with several scratches on his clothes, not to mention injuries on his arms and legs, and several guesses flashed through his mind.

"There is no signal here." He explained gently, trying not to scare the other party as much as possible. "I can't get through the phone, if you want to contact outside..."

Bai Tanxia was listening to him, but the loud protest sounded again at this moment.

Feeling that something was wrong with Bai Tanxia, ​​Gu Liangsheng put down the paintbrush in his hand, his voice was warm and soothing. "If you don't mind, I have some food in the car, you can fill your stomach first."

"...Is it okay?" Bai Tanxia hesitated.

Normally, she would never eat something given by a stranger, but today she is really hungry, and it is already the limit to get here.

Gu Liangsheng nodded and gave up his seat. "It's okay to sit down and rest."

After speaking, he thoughtfully did not approach Bai Tanxia, ​​but took a few steps around to the side of the car, leaving enough space for Bai Tanxia.

Bai Tanxia walked over tentatively, seeing that the seat that Gu Liangsheng had left for her was clean, she hesitated for a while and chose a seat next to her.

When Gu Liangsheng got his lunch back from the car, he saw Bai Tanxia huddled into a small ball, sitting next to his easel.Desperate and pitiful.
