Chapter 104

"Where are these two people? One is an archaeology professor and the other is a law enforcement policeman. They don't have a sense of time."

In this half hour, all the materials in the tent were packed and packed. When Zheng Jie and his family came back, they immediately moved the camp to the broken house. However, the agreed time exceeded half an hour and the two people did not come back. If we choose to move the camp away without authorization at this time and wait for them to return and see the camp disappear out of thin air, it will undoubtedly make a simple thing troublesome.

"Anyway, the time is not too fast. Let's eat first and wait while eating."

I went back the same way, took some water from the brook, went back to the camp, cooked a pot of instant noodles, and shared some cans with Bai Ling. These trivial things seem ordinary, but time often passes inadvertently. Suddenly, time has gone in vain.

"It's already one twenty-five."

"What happened to Professor Fu and officer Zheng?"

I always thought that Fu Zhiwen and Zheng Jie were so eager to find ancient tombs that their return time was delayed. Now Roland suddenly said so casually, which made my heart jump.

I said, "you and Bai Ling stay here. Don't run around. I'll find it with my senior brother."

Jiang Yilong and I shouted their names as we walked along the direction of Fu Zhiwen and them, until we left the camp for about two miles. There was still no response from them within this range. At the same time, a trace of being trampled by people was still clearly visible.

Jiang Yilong said, "these two are really capable. They ran so far."

I smiled.

We walked some distance along the traces left by the two people. Tall weeds can be seen everywhere. When we pass through this weed, a gully appears in front of us, and opposite the gully is a small hillside with lush vegetation and completely shrouded by the shade.

"Old Fu, sister Zheng."

After shouting several times, there was still no response. At present, the traces left by them have completely disappeared. The only possibility in front of us is that these two people are very likely to cross the single wooden bridge across the gully. In the current situation, we are also very helpless. We can only cross the single wooden bridge carefully and come to the opposite.

"Younger martial brother, there are shoe prints on the ground."

There are indeed some shoe prints left on the mud. Without careful identification, it can be seen that they are Fu Zhiwen and Zheng Jie. However, just as I was about to get up and look for them along the footprints, I suddenly froze back to where I was. Looking back, I looked at the shoe prints left behind me, and then compared them with those left by Zheng Jie, it looked very strange.

My weight may not be as heavy as Fu Zhiwen, but it must be heavier than Zheng Jie. On the contrary, the shoe prints I left in the same place are much shallower than those she left. In addition, the span of several pairs of shoe prints they left is very large. This alone is completely out of normal.

Jiang Yilong looked at me, pushed me and said, "what do you think?"

"According to these pairs of shoe prints, Zheng Jie and Fu Zhiwen should be running at that time."

"Oh, little elder martial brother, your Taoism is getting higher and higher. You can even see this?"

"It's just inferred from the footprints they left. But it's strange why they ran. Did they find anything?"

"It's hard to find the ancient tomb?"

"Not to mention the Feng Shui pattern here, just the metal detectors they use, they should walk step by step very regularly. Besides, how can ancient tombs be built in this place."

"Then don't think about it. Just ask if you understand when you find them."

The footprints of the two men disappeared in front of the grassland. In front of the grassland was a dense forest. Now we can only be sure that Zheng Jie and Fu Zhiwen came here and whether they are still here can only be known after looking for them.

After entering the forest, the traces left by the two people are not obvious, which increases the difficulty for us, but fortunately, the forest is not large, and the penetration of our voice is not low. As long as they are still nearby, they will be able to hear the response soon.

"These two are really evil spirits. Have a cigarette and have a rest." Jiang Yilong took out a cigarette box from his pocket by leaning against the trunk. There were just two left in the cigarette box. He joked: "well, there is no rations. It will be difficult in the next few days."

"It's also a good thing to smoke less." I looked at the time. It took us about an hour and 20 minutes since we left the camp, and it took nearly three hours to come back. The time when Fu Zhiwen and I left in the morning was exactly nine o'clock, that is to say, if they really returned to the camp on time according to the agreed time, the range they could walk would probably be here.

I took two puffs and put out the cigarette on the ground. Jiang Yilong said I wasted it. I said, "the forest is not too big. I'll just go to the East, you go to the west, and meet here if you can't find it."

Jiang Yilong said hello. I turned around and left. When I just walked a few steps and shouted to elder sister Fu Zheng, there was a sudden movement in my southeast direction. I quickly stopped Jiang Yilong and shouted several times in succession. Finally, I heard the weak response 'we're here'.

Locking the direction, we ran. Just as we were about to cross the forest, we saw the metal detector leaning aside from a distance, and Zheng Jie was hung upside down by a rope on the trunk next to her. There were several blood holes on the back of her hand and face, which looked very embarrassed.

"Hey, officer Zheng Da, what trick are you playing?"

"Put her down first."

Jiang Yilong quickly climbed up the tree and cut off the rope with a machete. At the moment when Zheng Jie fell, he picked up his sister. It may have been hung upside down for a long time. Zheng Jie's right leg couldn't exert strength for a time. Before I could speak, she quickly pointed forward and said, "go and save my grandfather."

When we opened the grass, a square hole of square meters suddenly appeared in front of us, and Fu Zhiwen was covered with mud and unconscious, curled up under the hole of more than four meters.

Jiang Yilong took the hemp rope that hung Zheng Jie upside down, compared the length and tied it to a tree trunk next to him. We worked together to get Fu Zhiwen out of the hole.

After a while, Fu Zhiwen woke up. There were only some scratches on his body, but it didn't matter. After looking at him and Zheng Jie, I hurriedly asked, "what happened to you?"

"We came all the way to the ditch and got nothing. We were almost ready to return the same way. I didn't think we saw someone across the ditch at this time. We knew it wasn't you. We immediately chased after him. Unexpectedly, the guy ran faster and faster and disappeared after entering the forest. At this time, I lost my sight and fell into the forest Xiaojie is going to pull me up, but she accidentally stepped on the rope trap. Fortunately, you found it. Otherwise, Xiaojie and I may really have to die here. "

Jiang Yilong said, "it's really possible. If you don't get eaten by wild animals, you will starve and die of thirst. Ha ha, we are your life-saving benefactors. Think about how to repay us."

Jiang Yilong had some elements of schadenfreude, but I was surprised when Fu Zhiwen finished. "Is there anyone here?"

After a long rest, Zheng Jie's right leg finally felt. She stood up and said to us, "I didn't see too clearly at that time, but it seemed like a personal shadow."

"It's impossible. How can people still live in this ghost place?" Jiang Yilong said, "is it a human bear or a large beast?"

I said, "elder martial brother, you can't say that. I don't know now, but there were people on the island before."

Jiang Yilong knew I meant the house and nodded. "Maybe you are dazzled. Otherwise, if you are here for a long time, it is absolutely impossible for someone not to show up."

"Maybe so." Zheng Jie said, "what did you find?"

"Find a house."

I walked around and looked for it. There was no trace or discovery. Then, a group of the four returned.

On the way back, we told Zheng Jie and Fu Zhiwen about finding the house and preparing to move to business. They had no objection to it. Once, it was already 4:00 p.m. and Roland and bailing were already impatient. If Roland hadn't insisted on keeping bailing with her, I'm afraid bailing would have been tempted to chase her.

Just after we moved the camp to the dilapidated house and a few thunder explosions, dark clouds were scattered, but it rained heavily for a long time. Because it's raining outside, we can only be limited to this broken house for the rest of the day. If we feel bored at leisure, we can only chat and sleep to pass the time. Fu Zhiwen seemed very energetic at this time. Although he was only staying in a broken house, in his eyes, it was like a treasure house. He looked east and West with a magnifying glass from time to time. As a result, he didn't see a bright hall in the end.

When the time transited to about 9 p.m., the rain outside had long stopped. Just as I was sleeping soundly, Bai Ling suddenly pushed me and woke up Jiang Yilong and Zheng Jie nearby. She pointed out and said, "there seems to be something moving outside."

I didn't care at first. At this time, it may be the movement made by those wild animals. The wild animals are afraid of fire. Secondly, we have many people and self-defense tools. We don't have to worry about being attacked by wild animals, but Bai Ling said very firmly, "it's different."

I subconsciously thought about it. I crept out with a flashlight in one hand and a wooden stick in the other. When I looked around with a flashlight, I didn't find anything. Just when I was ready to step back, I inadvertently illuminated the ground with a flashlight. I found that there were several pairs of clear footprints on the ground. I knew it was because of the rain.

"Someone came."

"What?"

"I mean, there are people on this ghost island."
