Ji Thrush slept very soundly this time, without even having a dream.
When he woke up, he touched his side in a daze, and found that half of the bed next to him was empty, Ren Jianmo had already woken up, and he had the marks of the bedding on his face, and there was a stain on the pillow. Wet traces of Kotan's saliva.
At this time, the room was already dark, and the window opened two fist-sized gaps, and the orange sunset was projected in, illuminating a backlit figure in front of the window.
"Woke up?"
Hearing the rustling on the bed, Ren Jianmo, who was sitting by the window, turned around and looked at Ji Thrush.
Ji thrush quickly got up.
He saw Ren Jianmo wearing a set of light-colored home clothes, nestled on a single sofa chair, with his long hair loosely tied behind his head with a banana clip, sitting against the backlight, his whole body covered A nice layer of gold edging.
In front of Ren Jianmo was a small coffee table with a coffee cup on it, as well as a stack of materials and books, with a few pages spread out on his lap.
"what time is it now?"
Ji Thrush asked as he got out of bed:
"What are you doing?"
"Ten minutes to six o'clock, it's almost time for dinner."
Ren Jianmo replied: "I'm looking at the information about the location of the ghost talk that I'm going to tonight."
Ji Thrush was surprised, "You found the information so early?"
He suspected that Ren Jianmo might not have slept at all.
"I'll get up an hour earlier than you."
Ren Damei seemed to understand the implication of Ji Xiaoniao's words, and specially explained one more sentence, "After waking up, I have nothing to do, so I will collect information first."
"Are you really going to get '7' by yourself tonight?"
Ji Thrush dragged the pier chair in front of the dressing table, and sat next to Ren Jianmo, "Is it too risky?"
Ren Jianmo raised his eyelids and looked at Ji Thrush, "Why, you don't believe in my ability?"
"No no no!"
Ji Thrush shook his head quickly, "I know you are amazing!"
But after shaking his head, Ji Xiaoniao leaned forward, moved closer, fixedly fixed his eyes on Ren Jianmo's one black and one brown eyes of different colors, and twisted his brows into an obvious knot, and said seriously:
"But, I still worry about you..."
Ren Jianmo's eyes flashed, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and the raised corners of his eyes and the peaks of his eyebrows suddenly became gentle.
"Thank you for worrying about me."
He stretched out his hand and snored on the top of the thrush's head, the soft curly hair felt very good to the touch, it was really like rubbing a well-behaved and docile little sheep.
Ji Thrush didn't speak, and let Ren Jianmo stroke his hair, but looked at him momentarily.
"Actually, I'm more worried about you."
Ren Jianmo's eyes became softer, "I always feel that I don't feel at ease if I don't stare at you..."
However, Ji Thrush's attitude was very firm, and Ren Jianmo didn't let Ren Jianmo easily change the topic with a sweet word.
"I was serious!"
Ji Thrush stared at Ren Jianmo with scorching eyes, "What kind of ghost talk place are you going to tonight? Can you really pass the level alone?"
It's not that he doesn't believe in the ability of the big beauty, he's just worried that if there's only one person, they can't pass the customs smoothly no matter what-this kind of thing they have encountered before, and they arranged it in "Peach Blossom Spring" The degree of shamelessness of the "world" is absolutely possible.
Probably because the worry in Ji Thrush's eyes was so frank and straightforward that Ren Jianmo could see through it at a glance.
Although he can't remember his previous experience at all, Ren Jianmo has always had a kind of "intuition", or in other words, his body memory is telling him that his previous self has never joined any team, and has no so-called companions. concept.
So, what would he do when he encountered a similar "world" back then
Ren Jian thought for a while and came to a conclusion easily.
Back then, he would definitely ignore the other people in the same group as him, but just rely on his own ideas, let's go to the ghost talk place by himself...
Thinking of this, Ren Jianmo suddenly felt that it was not a bad thing to have such a few companions.
He smiled slightly, withdrew his hand resting on Ji Thrush's head, then picked up a few pages of A4 paper on his lap, and handed it to his captain.
"Forget it, I'll show you directly."
Ji Xiaoniao took it and looked at it.
What Ren Jianmo handed him were a few printed webpages.
In the study downstairs, there are not only computers, but also a series of machines such as printers and scanners equipped with sufficient consumables.
Ji thrush saw that Ren Jianmo was about to go to the place where the poker number was "7", and there was a well-known nickname on the Internet called "Shenyin Tunnel".
It was originally called "Longxing Mountain Tunnel". It is located in the south of the city and is about three kilometers long.
According to legend, after twelve o'clock every night, as long as someone drives into the tunnel, honks the horn, and says "follow me", he will disappear from the world.
The earliest version of ghost stories that Ren Jianmo was able to find was a post on the ghost story board of a certain online community eight years ago.
The poster's ID is minning332, and he claims to be a native villager in a village near the Longxingshan Tunnel.
There has always been a legend in his village that after nightfall, do not enter the tunnel. If you must pass through it, you must keep quiet and do not make any noise, especially do not whistle, knock on objects, or say any "follow" Words like "I", "Follow me", "Let's go together", or you will be taken away by Grandpa Mountain God, and you will never be found again.
However, curiosity can kill a cat, let alone a human being who likes to die.
Later, minning332 was admitted to a university in the city. By chance, he mentioned the legend of the Longxing Mountain Tunnel to his roommate. Several young people were very interested in it, and they were very active. They planned to form a team to explore it that night. after all.
That day, the six of them drove two cars, entered the Longxingshan Tunnel in the middle of the night, and parked the car in the middle of the tunnel. , follow me!", "I'm here, follow me!" The words, like a late night party scene, the atmosphere was very lively for a while.
At that time, only minning332 was still thinking about the teachings of the villagers, and he never said a word.
At the beginning, there was nothing abnormal in the tunnel. A few college students hooked their shoulders together and didn't take the legends seriously at all. Some people even jokingly suggested that the beer be moved down here and have a good drink here.
However, soon, minning332 found that something was wrong.
Because his roommates disappeared one by one.
Like mice attracted by cheese, they walked into the dark tunnel one by one without the others noticing, and never looked back.
When minning332 noticed, he was only surrounded by his buddies who slept on the top bunk.
And that person stared straight, staring blankly at the dark tunnel.
Minning332 was confused and panicked. He grabbed the other person's arm and kept asking him what happened and where did the others go
But his good buddy didn't answer him, instead, he shook off his hand, walked forward, and walked deep into the tunnel.
According to minning332's post, he chased after him at the first time, but he was tripped by something invisible, fell into the mud, and almost broke his front teeth.
By the time he got up in disgrace, his good buddy had disappeared.
The entire tunnel was empty, except for himself and two cars that had lost their owners.
Minning332 was so frightened that he couldn't care less, and quickly got into one of the cars, turned on the high beams, and used the maximum light to disperse the darkness ahead, then stepped on the accelerator, started the car, and drove forward slowly, looking for a car. Roommates lost on the road.
But until he drove the car out of the tunnel, minning332 failed to find any of his partners.
His five roommates just disappeared.
What made minning332 even more devastated was that he didn't notice the abnormality of the car just now because he was too scared and the tunnel was too dark.
After leaving the tunnel and looking at a place with sufficient light, he found that there were many gray and black human handprints scattered all over the car and on the windows!
Later, minning332 quickly called the police. After hearing what had happened, the police wanted to find the missing college students before they left.
So they searched the neighborhood all night—let alone five big living people, they didn't even find a single line of fresh shoe prints.
The police began to suspect that minning332 had lied, there were no college students who walked into the tunnel and disappeared.
But there was only one caller at the scene, but there were two cars, and the surveillance at a high-speed intersection before entering the tunnel did capture pictures of two cars passing by with many passengers.
As for the handprints left on the two vehicles, after analysis, it was said that there was a large amount of soot and ink in them—but knowing this did not help the police find the missing students.
Later, the police contacted the fire brigade and the forest patrol team, and searched for several days in the forest near the tunnel, but still no one was alive or dead.
As a last resort, this case can only be shelved as a headless pending case, let it go.
After reading this post, Ji Thrush turned over the next few pages.
In the next few years, some young people who like to hunt novelty went to test the authenticity of this post. Many teams really lost people, and even a single person didn't come back.
Later, some people summed up a set of "Shenyin Theory", telling players how to kill effectively, such as the highest success rate from 1 o'clock to 2 o'clock in the evening, and the need to press the horn for three longs and two shorts, etc...
Ji Xiaoniao frowned deeply after browsing through it quickly.
"This looks... so mysterious..."
He turned to look at Ren Jianmo, "Do you have a clue?"
Unexpectedly, Ren Jianmo nodded and responded:
"Ok."
Ji Thrush: "???"
— This is too fast!
"Actually, the fact that there are soot and ink in the fingerprints gave me a lot of hints."
Ren Jianmo leaned against the sofa, clasped his hands, and gracefully folded one leg.
"So, I think, I know how to deal with this 'Shenyin Tunnel'."
The author has something to say:
Because the main perspective is on Ji Xiaoniao's side, so the weird talk on Ren Xiansen's side is like this, I won't write in detail~
