Chapter 293: Chapter 271-the person hanging on the tree
Translator: 549690339
Looking at the young man, the uncle and nephew had to admit that there was a moment when they were completely stunned.
He felt his scalp go numb.
However, they quickly reacted. After all, they had been running in the wilderness all year round, so their courage and will were stronger than ordinary people.
In addition, the other party had taken the initiative to ask after all, which also eased the panic to a certain extent.
How bad could a talking bad person be?
The middle-aged man’s body tensed up, and he quietly loaded the gun in his hand.
Then, he pursed his lips and gave the young man a look.
The young man subconsciously resisted, but he knew the severity of the situation. Although he was also nervous, he still followed his usual experience. After loading the gun, he quietly hid it behind him, put on a smile, pushed open the car door, and got out.
When he pushed the door open, he looked around carefully to make sure there was no one around .
On such a night with the Crimson Moon hanging in the sky, surrounded by waist-high wilderness, even if there were people, he would not be able to see them.
“My … Man, what do you do?”
The young man took two steps forward and leaned against the front of the motorcycle. He shouted at the man on the motorcycle.
Although they both had guns, and in terms of size, the one on the motorcycle seemed to be unable to withstand a beating from him or his uncle.
However, in the middle of the night in the wilderness, and when they encountered the evil of ghosts hitting the wall, they suddenly met such a calm guy who seemed to be out for a ride. It would be a lie if they weren’t nervous.
The more enthusiastic this guy greeted them, the more terrifying he seemed.
Hello, I’m going to the central city to visit my relatives.
When the man on the motorcycle heard his words, his face suddenly looked very happy, and he drove over with a Tutu.
The young man was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
He subconsciously took half a step back, gripped the gun on his back, and said, ‘”‘Then just now, you … What are you doing?”
At least, the guy on the motorcycle didn’t seem to know that there was a rule of keeping a safe distance of more than ten meters between strangers in the wilderness, but he seemed … He was very ” polite “. He could see the young man’s nervousness and stopped the car.
With one foot on the ground, he stood three to four meters away and explained with a smile, “”l’m lost!”
“Why are you so happy when you’re lost?” the young man thought.
“I feel like I’ve encountered a ghost.”
The person on the motorcycle continued to laugh.”So I’m thinking of a way to see if I can find the ghost.”
The young man was stunned.
Looking at the young man on the motorcycle not far away, she felt that he was . Enthusiasm.
He was friendly, gentle, and honest .
. Yes, he told himself honestly that he was looking for that “ghost”!
Is this f * cking right?
You encountered a ghost in the middle of the night, so you’re wandering here to find the ghost?
“Ignore him, let him go first .
The uncle in the car reminded the young man in a low voice.
The young man understood what his uncle meant. The young man was clearly smiling, but he was panicking inside.
They did want to ask for directions just now, but they had changed their minds.
A “person” who was looking for ghosts in the middle of the night gave them a feeling that was scarier than a ghost hitting a wall.
Hence, he forced himself to be alert and said with a smile, “”Still … Forget it, man, you can go first, we’re not in a hurry.”
After a pause, he smiled and said, ” hehe, to be honest, we’re already lost. We’re planning to wait here. We’ve already called the convoy. They’ll be sending people to find us soon, and they all have guns .
The uncle in the car was already holding his gun tightly.
If this person said that he could take her out, she could basically conclude that he was up to no good.
“It’s fine if you have a gun, I have one too.”
The man on the motorcycle heard the young man’s words and his reaction was unexpected. He smiled and shook his head. “But I don’t know if you really have people coming in to find you. If they did, they would probably be lost like you.”
“What?”
His words made his uncle and the young man feel a little strange, and their eyes were fixed on him.
The man sat in the car, lit a cigarette, and said, “”Don’t you guys know what’s going on?”
The young man and his uncle were both a little nervous and a little complicated. They secretly exchanged a look.
Of course, they had heard of it. Even the underwear was on the head.
But they didn’t want to discuss this problem with this strange person in front of them in the middle of the night.
“There are no ghosts in this world.”
The man on the motorcycle laughed and said something that surprised everyone.
Then, he explained enthusiastically, ” or rather, this is a different concept from what you understand. In the ghost stories that our director told before, it seems that the ghost will disappear at dawn. However, the situation we’re in now shouldn’t be so easy to solve.
The young man suddenly realized something. ah, I know. Ghosts are different after the Crimson Moon.
The man on the motorcycle was stunned for a moment before he laughed.”There’s no problem with you understanding it this way.”
“Shall we find it together?” he invited enthusiastically.
The uncle and nephew were stunned.
The man seemed to be afraid that they didn’t understand, so he explained with a smile, ‘”We can be sure that we’ve all been contaminated to a certain extent, which is why we got lost. Therefore, we must find its logical chain to find its main body and find a way to solve it.
you can think of this source of contamination as that ghost.
“I’ve been looking for it since just now, but I’ve already walked in circles a few times. It’s not a good idea to keep going in circles.”
“Considering that there’s strength in numbers, I want to ask for your help.”
The young man and his uncle both had goosebumps.
They didn’t understand what logic chain and pollution was, but it was already scary to meet such a strange young man in the middle of the night, and he even invited them to find the ghost that hit the wall with a warm face .
this person is too strange. Hurry up and get in the car.
The uncle in the driver’s seat reminded him in a low voice as he started the car.
“Forget it …”
The young man also felt an unspeakable chill. He swallowed his saliva and said, ‘ man, we’re in a hurry, so we can’t talk to you any longer. We’re all here to make a living. One more friend means one more path, so we … I’ll make friends with you next time …”
He jumped into the car and closed the door tightly.
The uncle and nephew felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts, so they naturally didn’t want to say more. The car slowly started and drove forward.
This country road was originally two to three meters wide, and with the grass slopes on both sides, it was enough for a truck to pass through. But now, the grass on both sides grew inward, making the road much narrower. With a motorcycle in front, it was difficult for the truck to pass through.
The uncle had already stuffed the gun into the young man’s hand. He held the steering wheel tightly with both hands and tried to turn as far away from the motorcycle as possible.
However, the man on the motorcycle didn’t show any displeasure when he was ruthlessly rejected.
He even kindly moved aside to give them enough space to pass.
As they passed by each other, they saw the man on the motorcycle below them smiling at them in a friendly manner.
A layer of cold sweat formed.
Fortunately, they passed by each other in peace and the truck continued to move forward along the path.
Through the rearview mirror, they saw that the young man had waited for a while before slowly driving his car and catching up.
The truck deliberately sped up, and the motorcycle followed at a steady pace.
The truck and the motorcycle slowed down on purpose, maintaining a certain distance between them.
“I’m going to kill him ..
The young man was furious. He clenched the gun in his hand and gritted his teeth as he looked at the rearview mirror.
“Nonsense …”
“That’s a human life, after all …” The uncle pressed the gun down.
“Even if you’re desperate, you still have to take. life …”
“But what if …
“Isn’t that a human?” the uncle trembled.
All of the young man’s courage suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he shrank his head.
maybe he’s really lost. He’s scared, so he wants to follow us …
The uncle gritted his teeth. ignore him for now. Keep an eye on him. If he suddenly gets close to us, we’ll talk about it!
Probably because of the shadow in his heart, he also subconsciously stepped on the gas. The old truck filled with all kinds of goods began to accelerate and wobbled down the path. The wheels ran over the thick weeds on the road, making a rustling sound.
Under the pale lights, the path gradually became smoother. The road also seemed to be much smoother, and they drove faster and faster.
“Eh? Uncle, what’s that?”
When they were trying to find their way, they had been walking in circles on the old road. But now, most of their attention was diverted by the person who was following them on a motorcycle. They accidentally drove forward and suddenly came to a wide open space.
“You’ve walked out?”
The uncle was also a little surprised. He quickly stepped on the accelerator, and the truck finally drove out of the wild road overgrown with weeds.
In an instant, the joy of being reborn welled up in his heart.
They looked up in joy, but they suddenly held their breath and felt their scalps go numb.
The car’s headlights shone forward, and they came to an open space. In front of them was a huge tree.
This tree was thick enough for two people to wrap their arms around it. Its branches were dense, and the crown was like a cloud.
In addition to the drooping branches and leaves, there were many strange things around the tree. Some were old vehicles, some were sedans, some were three-wheeled, and there was also a half-toppled truck. There were even some old bicycles.
The old vehicles were rusty, and the new ones looked like they had been here not long ago.
They surrounded the tree, forming an irregular circle.
The most eye-catching thing was the tree. There were many ropes hanging from it, some of which were hemp ropes, some of which were belts, and at the bottom of the ropes hung people in different clothes. They hung quietly like fruits.
A gust of wind blew, and their bodies spun gently, revealing their half-rotten faces..
