Chapter 73 Looking for Traces
Chapter 73: Looking for Traces
Li Mu said some of his opinions, and then everyone went to rest.
That night, because both Huang Yourong and Yu Hanzhou had an accident, the vigil time became one and a half hours for each person.
Su Qian started and Li Mu ended.
The wind is a bit strong tonight.
The mountain breeze outside the house was wandering around the village, as if looking for an entrance.
The sound it made as it passed over the eaves and treetops sounded like it was crying or wailing, which sounded a little creepy.
Su Qian hugged her knees quietly and sat there, listening to the wind outside the house, looking at everyone blankly, and finally her eyes rested on Bai Yanliang.
Because we were all tired today, everyone quickly entered light sleep. Although during deep sleep, people's cerebral cortex cells are in a state of full rest, which is more helpful for stabilizing emotions, balancing mentality, and restoring energy, but... in No one can sleep peacefully in this kind of place.
Su Qian's eyes were blank, Yu Hanzhou was dead...
Just die.
Until now, she has an unreal feeling. The person who was alive a few hours ago is just gone?
Maybe... Li Mu made a mistake?
Su Qian was thinking in a daze. At this moment, the person she was looking at unconsciously suddenly opened her eyes.
"Is something wrong?"
Bai Yanliang opened his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him who had been staring at him.
"Ah...it's okay." Su Qian was startled by him, but she recovered.
"Today...thank you for saving me."
Bai Yanliang shook his head, glanced at everyone who was resting quietly, and whispered: "No, no matter who it is, I will help if you can."
Su Qian was stunned when she heard this, because...Yu Hanzhou also said something similar...
"You are a good person..." Su Qian lowered her head and said softly.
Bai Yanliang smiled, looked up at the ceiling, and murmured with blurred eyes: "Really..."
He was a little confused.
Whether it was Yu Hanzhou or Huang Yourong, their deaths did not make him feel any strange emotions.
In fact, not only them, but even Bai Yanren, his only brother...
Whenever Bai Yanliang thinks about his death, although Bai Yanliang will have some emotions, after repeated confirmation, that emotion is not entirely sadness, nor is it entirely anger. Compared with those two, there is more in his heart... …is curious.
How could I be so cold-blooded?
Bai Yanliang occasionally asks himself.
No one can tell him why. Maybe one day, Bai Yanliang will be able to find the answer himself, but then... what will he become?
……
The night was uneventful.
As soon as it dawned, there was a commotion in the village.
The disappearance of the village chief is a big deal, a big deal.
The people in the village organized themselves and went everywhere to look for it.
But now, the person in charge is the village chief's granddaughter, Lu Bingyan.
Li Mu and the others stood beside her, quietly looking at the group of strange-looking villagers in front of them.
"Where are Luo Laoer and Wang Gui?"
"Yeah...Why didn't they come?"
Soon the crowd started to get noisy again.
Two more villagers are missing.
Everyone's expressions began to look a little strange... After a moment, they began to shout:
"We must find the village chief! Today is a festival, and we can't do it without the village chief!"
"Yes!"
The old village chief had a high prestige and a lot of knowledge, and no one seemed to want anything to happen to him.
But... this may not include two people.
Li Mu glanced at Xiaobin and Lu Bingyan.
Xiao Bin looked happy and had no intention of looking for the village chief. And Lu Bingyan... her expression was too calm, as calm as the missing person, who was not her grandfather at all.
The group of people dispersed quickly, and Li Mu turned around and said to everyone: "Be careful."
Everyone nodded. This is the third day and the last day of the survival mission. Currently, two companions have died...
What will happen in the end, no one knows.
After sharing their respective intelligence last night, everyone has new ideas. It would be great if we could find that rule, the rule that even the devils have to abide by...
Bai Yanliang was the first to leave.
He had an idea that he had to confirm. After listening to the information everyone got last night, he felt more and more weird about it.
So weird that he had to risk it to make sure.
If it is really what he thinks, maybe...all their speculations are wrong...
After Bai Yanliang left, the other four people quickly separated.
Li Mu turned around and entered the village chief's house, while Yu Sheng wheeled his wheelchair to Lu Bingyan's house nearby.
Su Qian cheered up and looked at the house in the distance. Today... she must find out whether that woman is really crazy or fake.
Only Lin Yan seemed a little idle.
As she had said to Bai Yanliang and the others before, she had never quite agreed with Li Mu's approach.
In her opinion, survival missions should not involve too much exploration at all, as long as you understand the most deadly taboos, then try your best to avoid them and try your best to escape.
She is indeed doing this, and there is not much curiosity in her character, so... she has always played the role of an ignorant person.
Ignorance does not mean stupidity.
This is especially true in fog concentrations.
The more you know, the more you master, and the smarter you are, the longer you may live.
Their strong curiosity requires them to go to some extremely dangerous places, otherwise they will be considered negative by certain rules.
But people like Lin Yan don't have such worries.
All she needs is to do the most basic research, and she won't have any unnecessary curiosity at all.
Lin Yan stood there, and after thinking about it, she felt that she still needed to do something, so she caught up with Lu Bingyan and the villagers, planning to follow the large army.
This should be a very safe choice.
Lin Yan nodded secretly. At the same time, she was worried that Li Mu and the others would not listen to the advice. This was the last day of the survival mission.
The risk of being left alone to investigate alone is unimaginably high. I hope they...can succeed.
……
Li Mu entered the village chief's house.
This old man has only one relative, his granddaughter Lu Bingyan.
The space of this house is not small. Although they stayed here for two nights, they have always been on the first floor. This house is the only double-story building in the village. No one goes to the village chief's room on the second floor. Saw it.
This time, that's his goal.
Li Mu firmly believes that the village chief is definitely the person with the biggest problems and the most secrets. Now that he is missing, there are disadvantages and advantages.
At least... now I can freely look for the secrets hidden by the old village chief.
Li Mu raised his head and looked towards the second floor.
There is a rather old wooden staircase connecting the first and second floors.
Li Mu took a deep breath and climbed up the stairs.
It seemed really old, with every step creaking and the handrails covered with dust.
Fortunately, nothing weird happened.
Li Mu quickly went up to the second floor and stood in front of a wooden door.
