Weird past in the countryside

Chapter 48
Yu Ling'er kicked me and asked me: "It's evening, there is still a long time, what are we doing during this time?"

I asked back: "What are you doing? Didn't you toss enough last night? You slept soundly, but I'm still tired. I have to sleep."

Yuling'er heard me mention what happened last night, and immediately came to me: "Xiao Yangyang, tell me, is this missing Ning Xiaoyue your sweetheart? Did you see that female ghost yesterday?" Is it her?"

I pretended to be angry: "Didn't I tell you not to mention what happened yesterday? Why do you still mention it?"

Yu Ling'er patted me with a smile: "Don't worry, ah, Master Uncle promises to save your sweetheart for you."

I looked helpless, and I really hope that she can rescue Master and the others safely.

As Yu Ling'er was talking, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked again: "Did you say that there is Zhuma Mountain near you, and the place where the underground palace you went to in your previous life is called Zhuma Ridge?"

I nodded: "That's right, I thought the two place names were very similar, but I didn't know if they were the same place."

Yu Ling'er nodded and said: "There should be some connection, otherwise Xiao San wouldn't be able to keep making such big moves in this area. Apart from looking for Yin Yang Xue Ruyi and those treasures, there is no other reason to explain it."

I agree with her statement: "I think so too, so Master asked us to investigate."

Yuling'er slapped my thigh fiercely: "Isn't there still a period of time in the daytime, take me to Zhuma Mountain to have a look."

I was a little restless because of Master.But when I think about it, there is really nothing going on during this time, so I might as well go and have a look, maybe if I find some clues, there will be a countermeasure when the master comes back.

Yu Ling'er is still impatient, she can do whatever she wants.After speaking, he took me out.

We walked out of the west entrance of the village, and in front of us was the rolling Zhuma Mountain.I pointed to the mountain and said to Yuling'er: "Cross this mountain, and in front of you is the Xiagou Village I told you about. There is a mountain road there, and Master and I have walked it before."

Yu Ling'er nodded, and pointed to the other side: "Where is it over there?"

I replied: "That side is also in the Zhuma Mountain range. According to the village chief, there is a large forest over the mountain. It has not been exploited and felled by humans at all, and it is equivalent to a virgin forest."

Yu Ling'er was puzzled: "Development? How to develop it?"

I explained with a smile: "In general forests, trees are now artificially cut down, and some people go hunting in the mountains. The natural environment has been destroyed, the ecological balance has been destroyed, and the biological chain..." I found that Yu Ling'er was more puzzled. Looking at me, I had to stop my explanation, and decided not to tell her such advanced knowledge.

So I explained it to her in a relatively easy-to-understand language.Yu Ling'er then asked: "Then why hasn't this forest been cut down and developed?"

I whispered: "I also asked the village chief about this question, and the village chief told me mysteriously that the primeval forest was haunted, so the villagers did not dare to go there. It is said that when the village chief was young, he and many friends ventured to However, several children suddenly disappeared and never came back. The village chief narrowly escaped death and ran back to the village. Later, the parents of those children called a group of villagers to look for them, and found that the children There was another large group of children who were chasing and playing in the forest. They were having fun. But when they called the names of the children, the children smiled strangely at them and then disappeared. In public, it was as if it had evaporated. Those parents later reported the case, and the public security department sent people to investigate, but in the end, nothing happened. Finally, the village came to the conclusion that there were ghosts in the forest, and they were specially arrested. Children. Few people in the village dare to go there."

Yu Ling'er waved her hand: "Then go to that forest."

"Huh?" I almost dropped my jaw in fright.

Yu Ling'er went on to say: "Think about it, Xiaosan has never found the underground palace here, which means that the underground palace is probably not nearby, and few people go there, and it is normal for the entrance of the underground palace to be there. Zhuma The mountain is so big, it’s possible to go anywhere. We have to search all over the mountain after we rescue your master. Let’s go and explore first, and when it gets dark, we’ll come back to find your master.”

I heard that Yuling'er was right, so I agreed with her decision.

We are walking in the direction of the virgin forest.After walking for a while, I regretted it.No one has walked here all year round, so there is no serious way.There are trees all over the mountain, all kinds of vegetation, and many thorny plants. When I walked by, I had small cuts on my arms.Don't look at the early autumn, there are still most of the green plants on the mountain, which are lush and extremely lush.

We need to separate the branches and leaves of various plants to move forward, so we can't care about checking the entrance of the underground palace.Later, with great effort, I broke a stick with the thickness of a finger from a tree, and beat it in front of me as I walked to explore the way.

Yuling'er smiled and said, "I understand this, you are trying to startle the snake. In our Tuo Mountain, Master told me."

I smiled wryly and said, "Yes, you should pay attention to your feet. If a snake comes out to bite you, we have no medicine to save you."

Yuling'er was shocked: "Huh? There are really snakes?"

When I looked back at her, I was really scared. I smiled and asked, "What? A heroine who can beat ghosts and crawl all over the ground is afraid of snakes?"

Yu Ling'er straightened her chest: "Who's afraid? I'm afraid that you will be in danger in front, so if I want to bite, I will bite you first."

I made a bitter face: "Uncle, I'm actually afraid too, why don't we go back. We'll come back when we find Master."

Yuling'er said decisively: "No. Since we're here, we have to explore anyway. Now that nothing has been discovered, how can we go back?"

I asked back: "Didn't we agree? You have to listen to me."

Yu Ling'er said: "I promised to listen to you when I went to find your master. Besides, you also agreed to come here to explore the way. Now it's too late to retreat."

I really can't do anything about this little uncle, I muttered: "Okay, I'll listen to you. Follow me, don't get lost."

I turned around again and continued to explore the road with a stick.

The virgin forest here is really original. After walking for a long time, there is no sign of human beings.Instead, several animal feces were found in large quantities, and it was obvious that there were bone residues inside.Moreover, there were footprints of wild beasts in the wet place near the excrement, which seemed to be left by giant beasts such as Siberian tigers.

I kept praying in my heart, these guys must never come out, I don't have Wu Song's ability.Besides, Wu Song still has a whistle stick in his hand, and I have a dog-beating stick at best.

I looked up at the sun, and the sun shone down from the gaps in the leaves that covered the sky, emitting colorful rays of light.

Judging by the position of the sun, it seemed to be near noon.As we marched, from time to time, various birds were frightened away from the forest, and the clear and crisp bird calls fully set off the beauty of nature.

Aside from haunting and searching for underground palaces, this place can definitely be called a natural oxygen bar, with fresh air, too many plants growing here, and too many birds inhabiting here.I've already made up my mind. When the matter here is settled, I must write a report and report the situation here to the relevant departments. Should this forest be protected as a nature reserve or something? of.I don't mind whether the relevant departments answer or not, as long as I do my best.

I was thinking wildly, Yu Ling'er overtook me from behind and ran to a small hill in front.I followed closely and found that there was a slightly flat ground above, and there were a few boulders.

We have been climbing the mountain, and there is no place to rest our feet.Now I could finally take a rest, I rushed up and climbed up a boulder, the sun made the stone very warm, I stretched myself and lay on it.It's so comfortable, the stones don't keep the back warm, and a breeze blows past.Sleepiness hit me, and I couldn't help but want to sleep well.

As soon as I closed my eyes, Yu Ling'er suddenly yelled from below: "Ah! Come down and have a look."

I was so scared that I sat up, turned over and jumped off the rock: "What's the matter?"

Yuling'er pointed to the bottom of the stone.

I lowered my head and took a closer look, and found that there was a pile of black plant ash underneath, which seemed to be a fire that had once burned.There is another pile next to it, covered with a lot of soil.

Yu Ling'er glanced at me, pointed to the ground and said, "It seems that there are indeed people coming here. I don't know how long they have been searching this area, are they also coming for the underground palace?"

I pretended to be relaxed: "Don't be suspicious, maybe they are a group of poachers. There must be a lot of wild animals here." While speaking, a squirrel ran quickly in front of us, and jumped into the tree in a few moments. A small head was exposed above, looking at us curiously with two round eyes.

I pointed to the little squirrel and said, "Look, there are many animals."

Yu Ling'er sighed: "I hope, if there is another force coveting this underground palace, the difficulty will increase invisibly."

I suddenly felt that this little uncle is also very reliable in handling things sometimes, he really cares about this kind of bloody thing, and his analysis is very logical.

I asked, "Then shall we move forward?"

Yu Ling'er said: "Go a little further and see if there are any other discoveries." She wanted to turn around and walk forward.

I responded and prepared to follow her out of here.But when I glanced behind her, it scared me a lot.About one meter behind Yuling'er, there is a big gray-brown snake coiled up. This snake has a thick body, coiled on the ground, and its length cannot be seen.The upper half of the body sticks out more than half a meter long, and it has already stood upright. The triangular head swings slightly from side to side, spitting out the letter, the neck and abdomen are already swollen, and the head shrugs, as if it is about to launch an attack at any time.Apparently our presence disturbed it.

Yu Ling'er didn't seem to notice, so I quickly lowered my voice and shouted: "Girl, don't move, don't move." My voice was trembling.

Yuling'er obviously also noticed my abnormality, she stood still and didn't dare to move, staring at me with two big eyes, terrified.
