Chapter 11 The mysterious skeleton(1/2)

The shrill screams echoed in the woods. After just a second or two, the woods returned to silence, as if everything just now was an illusion.

A layer of blood rose up in the river, and from time to time there were strange and terrifying piranhas jumping back and forth.

Although we all hate Chen Ming, we still feel shocked and sad when a living life dies in front of our eyes.

There are piranhas in the river, so don't worry about the water.

We can only find another way out.

We left the river where the piranhas lived and found a random place to rest along the way.

I have been saving water for nearly three days, but now I only have half a bottle of drinking water left.

My throat was burning, but I knew I couldn't drink yet. I licked my lips and swallowed, as if this would relieve my thirst.

In the afternoon we had disagreements about our next course of action.

Zhang Xinyu and I thought that we should look for water, otherwise we would never survive the sixth day.

Cui Shiyu believes that there is not much water left now, and you may not be able to find the water source if you keep searching. Instead, you will consume more water due to excessive exercise. You can still rest in place for a day or two, maybe here

In a day or two we can find traces of ghosts and kill them.

There are two roads before us now. One is more risky, which is the road I chose. This road is very risky, because if you continue to search, you may not be able to find the water source. The second is the road chosen by Cui Shiyu.

The risk is not high, but it does depend on luck.

There was a fierce quarrel between the two of us. Cui Shiyu snorted and said, "Why don't we each go our own way? You go on your Yangguan Road, and I'll go on my single-plank bridge."

Guo Mengqi tried to persuade her from the side: "Shigure, if we separate now, wouldn't it mean that we have entered into a ghost's wish?"

"Then what do you want to do?" Cui Shiyu frowned slightly and asked.

At this time, Zhang Xinyu came up with an idea. He took out a coin and said, "How about we toss a coin. If it's heads, we'll stay here and if it's tails, we'll go look for water."

I said: "I have no objection."

Cui Shiyu also nodded.

Zhang Xinyu flicked his finger, and the coin flew into the air. The coin kept spinning and spinning in the air, and finally fell to the ground.

I immediately moved my eyes to the coins, thinking that I would never end up in such a stupid situation like standing on the ground.

The flip side!

Seeing this, I looked at Cui Shiyu with a smile and said that we had made an agreement before and we were not allowed to go back on it.

Cui Shiyu nodded indifferently.

So we continued to look for water sources, but unfortunately, we couldn't find any new water sources after walking for more than an hour.

I sat on the ground a little disappointed, and Cui Shiyu sneered at the side: "Oh, thanks to you, we can delay it for less time."

Hearing this, I frowned and said, "Speaking of Cui Shiyu, I have never noticed that you are so mean and mean before. Is this your nature?"

Cui Shiyu sneered and said: "You are right, this is my true face."

In the evening, because of what Li Qing learned last night, we divided into groups of two to keep vigil. Since there were only five of us left, we simply divided into groups of boys and girls.

First, Zhang Xinyu and I will be in a group, and then Xu Xue, Guo Mengqi, and Cui Shiyu will be in a group. Each group will last for two hours.

At night, the bright moonlight shone on Guo Mengqi's face.

Guo Mengqi had a smile on her face, as if she had had a beautiful dream.

In the dream, she seemed to have arrived in a paradise, without the pain of water shortage, the pursuit of evil spirits, and the pressure of death.

This place is so beautiful, Guo Mengqi thought, she might as well stay here.

Guo Mengqi never wanted to wake up again.

The dark night is the most unforgettable time. Zhang Xinyu and I have eyes like hawks, keeping a close eye on the surrounding environment. Even if there is the slightest disturbance, we will not miss it.

But in this case, Guo Mengqi died under our eyes!

Zhang Xinyu and I looked at the dead Guo Mengqi with gloomy faces. Her neck was irregularly twisted, which was obviously the cause of her death.

Cui Shiyu looked at Guo Mengqi with a pale face. You must know that when sleeping, she and Guo Mengqi were almost next to each other.

"Damn it." Zhang Xinyu said with an ugly face: "It's really evil. Doesn't it mean that ghosts appear in physical form? I haven't seen even a ghost in the past three days, so this ghost-beating stick is just a decoration?"

Cui Shiyu quickly regained his composure, slumped his shoulders and said, "Maybe this ghost-beating stick is just an ordinary Hancheng, it's useless at all, it's just a trick used by the head teacher to fool us."

"But there is no need for the class teacher to be like this." I said doubtfully: "If she really wanted to kill us, everyone in our class would have died long ago, why would she need to go in a big circle?"

"The head teacher is a ghost, do you believe the lies?" Cui Shiyu sneered: "I give you hope first, and then give you despair. Maybe she likes to do this. Who can understand the thoughts of a ghost?"

I frowned. Could it be that, as Cui Shiyu said, the head teacher was just playing tricks on us?

In less than three days, three people have died. Except for Chen Ming, Li Qing and Guo Mengqi were all killed by ghosts silently at night. And I haven’t even seen the ghost’s shadow until now. I feel

I really failed.

"Damn it, damn it." Zhang Xinyu took the ghost-beating stick and waved it around randomly while cursing: "If you have the fucking ability, come out to me. I will kill you, a bastard like you. Come out and hide in the east."

What kind of skills do you have on the plateau!"

Now we can't blame Zhang Xinyu for going crazy. Who can bear it when a living person is killed silently under his eyes? He can kill Guo Mengqi under his eyes, which means that if a ghost wants to kill him quietly,

It's not very difficult for me either.

The current morale has obviously dropped to an extreme. Although you have a ghost-killing stick in your hand, you can't even see a ghost. How about beating hair?

"Don't be discouraged." A cold voice sounded.

Zhang Xinyu stopped waving in his hands and looked at Xu Xue in astonishment.

"It's not that I'm discouraged, but...Hey, Xu Xue, aren't you afraid?" Zhang Xinyu asked.

"Calm down." Xu Xue said seriously, "I'm afraid it's useless."

"Xu Xue is right, let's calm down first." I said.

"Okay." Zhang Xinyu nodded.

We are extremely exhausted both physically and mentally now, but Guo Mengqi's body is right next to us. Maybe the ghost is hiding in a dark corner, so we can only hold on.

I looked at my phone, it was three o'clock. I have been getting up earlier every day these days.

After a while, there was a sudden rustling in the woods.

We immediately looked in the direction of the sound with vigilance, and the lights of several flashlights immediately shone in the direction of the sound.

I saw a bunch of huge ants crawling on some ground. Judging from their size, I'm afraid they were as big as the belly of a person's finger. At a rough glance, there were hundreds of them.

This scene really scared us to death. The plants that could move before and the ferocious piranhas made us understand that we should not underestimate this creature in the woods.

Zhang Xinyu kicked the fire, and a large number of burning branches flew towards some ants. Suddenly, the sound of sizzling was heard.

But there were still a large number of ants behind, safe and sound. I picked up my backpack, dragged Zhang Xinyu and said while running, "Hurry up and run."

The ants did not chase us, but in front of our horrified eyes, they crawled densely on Guo Mengqi's body. In a few breaths, only a skeleton was left of Guo Mengqi's body.

After running for an unknown amount of time, we felt that it was impossible for the ants behind us to catch up, so we stopped.

"What a shame." Zhang Xinyu said breathlessly: "I have never seen such a big ant in my life."

We have seen a lot of weird creatures these days, including umbrella trees, giant morning glories, ferocious piranhas, and huge ants. I suspect that this place is not the earth at all.

But now is obviously not the time to think about this matter. Our top priority now is to survive. Only by surviving can we be qualified to think about other things.

During the day our opinions differed again.

I still think we should look for water sources.

"Since guarding or not can't stop ghosts from killing people, why must we guard?" Zhang Xinyu was obviously very excited.

"Walking around will only make you die faster." Cui Shiyu rubbed his forehead and said, "I don't want to argue with you about this problem anymore. Let's go our separate ways. Xue'er, let's go." After that, Cui Shiyu pulled him.

Xu Xue's hand gestured to leave.

However, Xu Xue ignored her and said, "I agree with Ye Yan's idea."

At that time, I felt happy in my heart. Cui Shiyu was so bad that the slap in the face must have hurt, bang bang bang!

Sure enough, Cui Shiyu's face turned blue and white for a while.

Zhang Xinyu chuckled and said, "See, I don't agree. If you want to leave, just go by yourself."

Cui Shiyu didn't seem to have any intention of being alone. She said with an ugly face: "Since Xue'er said so, then so be it."

My water has bottomed out, and there are nearly three days left. Under the current circumstances, it will be fatal to not drink water for three days. So if I can't find a water source again today, I will have to take a risk and go there.

The river of piranhas.

I walked all morning and found nothing. Although it was dangerous, I had no choice but to go to the river where the piranhas were.

Because Zhang Xinyu had a high fever.

After Li Qing died, Zhang Xinyu put his coat on him. Under various reasons such as lack of water, exhaustion, cold, pressure of death, and fear, Zhang Xinyu, who was wearing very thin clothes, could not hold on.

He had been holding on hard before, and we didn't notice anything strange about him. After walking all morning, he couldn't hold it anymore and fell to the ground with a plop.

I put my coat on Zhang Xinyu's body, touched Zhang Xinyu's forehead anxiously, and found that it was very hot.
