Mystery Leaks

Chapter 381
This is a paper figurine made of yellow paper, and the inside is supported by thin strips. The yellow paper is very thin, and the strips inside can be clearly seen. It's a real person.

But it was just such a thing that gave us chills on our backs, because before it was dark, he still talked to us with a smile, agreed to go to Tiger Leaping Rock tomorrow, and asked us for money like a philistine.

But don’t underestimate this point; first, it can appear during the day, which is a big taboo for ghosts; second, none of the four of us noticed that it was abnormal.

"Could it be a pretext, Gu Li went out?" I tried to explain, but it was too weird to explain.

"No, this paper man is Gu Li." Huang Mao shook his head and pointed under the paper man with his iron sword.

I saw that it was a bundle of red banknotes, which was the deposit that Huangmao had given him.

"What's the situation? Isn't he someone from the periphery of the Zongcha Institute? How could he be a paper man?" Cao Nan asked in surprise.

"Hey." Huang Mao smiled and said, "Those existences have even fooled Wang Jian'an, and they have planned everything."

"What is it that lures us here? Isn't it a trap?" I asked worriedly. This feeling of being calculated and dominated by others is really uncomfortable. To be precise, it is horror .

"The existence of the layout is very powerful, and it knows your Meng family like the back of the hand, otherwise it would not be able to set up this situation." Hu Lai frowned deeply, and said: "It is not an exaggeration to say that the mechanism has exhausted its calculations."

"Then it's okay for us to retreat. We know it's a trap, but we still jump into it?" Cao Nan said.

"Then what about Feng Daniu?" Hu Lai asked back.

Cao Nan: "..."

"Even without Feng Daniu, we can't retreat, and we have to go through the dragon's lake and the tiger's den." Huang Mao said again.

"What's the reason?" Cao Nan was puzzled.

"Because my grandfather has been here and made a major decision here, I must follow in his footsteps to investigate." I sighed.

Hu Lai is right, the layout has exhausted all the storage mechanisms, and when I come, it doesn't worry that I will shrink back.

"Knowing that there are tigers in the mountain, I prefer to go to the mountain." Cao Nan muttered, his face was ugly.

"Don't think it's so dangerous. It's still the same sentence. The existence of the layout is very powerful. If you just want to harm us, you have already done it halfway. Why wait until now?" Huang Mao said.

I froze for a moment, then nodded slowly, yes, the purpose of the other party's inviting us here is definitely not to harm us, at least not simply.

"Could it be an evil spirit?" After thinking about it, a possibility suddenly flashed in my mind.

The evil spirits have been trying to seize the three artifacts, but the three artifacts only circle around me for some reason. If the evil spirits want to seize the three artifacts, they have to wait for me to get the three artifacts.

So at this point, I and the evil spirits have something in common.

According to this logic, maybe the evil spirits led themselves to the Thirteenth Cave, hoping to use my hand to achieve a certain purpose.

And this... was something he couldn't refuse.

Afterwards, I recounted my guess, Hu Lai frowned, and said, "It's hard to say, but there is a possibility."

"What exactly is it? You have to go to Tiger Leaping Rock to find out. The other party has planned the layout carefully. Let's leave without going to see it. It's not the way to be a guest." Huang Mao said, pondered for a while and looked at Hu Lai: "Have you heard of Tiger Leaping?" rock?"

"I've heard of it, but I haven't been there." Hu Lai nodded, and then slowly said: "Tiger Leaping Rock is located in the core hinterland of the Thirteenth Cave. , The situation of divine wrath, great evil. In fact, it is also the same, Tiger Leaping Rock is famous for its fierceness, it is said that there are peerless murderous intentions lurking inside, and it is a forbidden zone for all living beings and ghosts, and anyone who enters it never comes out again. "

"So powerful?!" I was terrified when I heard that, what exactly did the person who arranged the layout want to do, and how did he lure himself to such a place?
"I once drove insects to the vicinity of Tiger Leaping Rock, and I was quite frightened." After a pause, Hu Lai continued: "I chased a very blunt big insect at that time, and I couldn't move it lazily. The type of holding on and playing backwards, but somehow strayed into the area of ​​Tiger Leaping Rock, and guess what happened?"

"What?" Our curiosity was aroused immediately.

Hu Lai smiled wryly: "As a result, the big worm turned around and ran away like an electric shock, and fled straight for more than 500 kilometers like burning its buttocks. It was exhausted."

We were all shocked, and ran straight for more than 500 kilometers. That is to say, the big worm was scared and panicked. Instead of following the underground waterway, it forced a way in the hard soil layer, and finally died of exhaustion.

To put it bluntly, he was scared to death.

What on earth did the tiger discover and was frightened to death?
No wonder Hu Lai was also very frightened. Who wouldn't tremble in such a weird situation?

The result is self-evident, the bamboo basket was used to fetch water in vain, and the tiger died deep in the soil without even getting a root hair.

"Fortunately, I didn't follow too closely at that time, otherwise I would have broken into the range of Tiger Leaping Rock, and I'm afraid the end would be worse than that big worm." Hu Lai shook his head, sighed and said, "Speaking of which, chasing worms is really a trick. It's really dangerous, if you are not careful, you will be taken into the ditch by the big worm, if your eyes are not bright enough, you will die in a daze."

I nodded. It is indeed not easy to catch insects. Not to mention the hard work, it is also dangerous. What's more terrible is that the income is not guaranteed. If you are not lucky, you will waste your time.

"Such a dangerous place, do we want to enter?" Cao Nan said.

"Now it's spinning around outside, let's check the situation first, since it's so fierce inside, naturally we can't mess around." Huang Mao said.

"Then what should we do now, we seem to have no guide." Cao Nan looked at the paper figurine on the bed and said.

"Don't worry, since he is human during the day, we just wait for him to wake up." Hu Lai said after pondering for a moment.

"It obviously has a problem, why don't we change a guide?" Cao Nan tried to suggest.

"I'm afraid I can't change it." Huang Mao put away the iron sword, lay on a recliner beside him and raised his legs, and said: "Since it was arranged to pick us up, it must have a special function, and other guides can't replace it." .”

Hu looked at the phone and said, "Take a break, he probably won't wake up until after the cock crows."

Cao Nan and I had no choice but to find a place to sit or lie down, and we were really tired after traversing mountains and ridges for a day and a night.Hu Lai even put Gu Li's blanket back on him.

As the time passed, we chatted occasionally, but remained silent most of the time. Hu Lai and I had just made a breakthrough, and our energy was not bad. Huang Mao and Cao Nan lasted for two or three days, and after a few blows, they fought snore.

The time passed to 04:30, and it was about to dawn. Hu Lai and I hurriedly shook Cao Nan and Huang Mao awake.

Huang Mao rubbed his face and said, "Don't bring up the paper doll later, this guy probably doesn't know he is a paper doll, and if he finds out, something might happen."

"what?"

"How could this be?"

Both Cao Nan and I were taken aback and were extremely puzzled.

"I'm not sure, I'll explain to you later." Huang Mao waved his hand.

Time passed by one minute and one second, and at four forty, a loud cock crowed from not far away.

At this time, a miraculous thing happened. Gu Li lifted the blanket the moment the cock crowed, mumbled something in his sleep, turned over, and started snoring.

"Damn, you've changed a lot!" Cao Nan exclaimed in a low voice.

I was also quite surprised, it felt like a magic trick, when the blanket was lifted, the paper doll, and when it was lifted again, the living person appeared.I have no idea what this is all about.

The world is full of wonders.

It seems that our existence made Gu Li feel something. He snored a few times, slowly opened his eyes, and took a closer look. Suddenly, he was shocked by the sound of "ah", and almost rolled off the bed.

I was speechless at once. Is this people scaring ghosts, or ghosts scaring people?
"You... you... why are you in my room?" Gu Li was puzzled, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"Don't get me wrong, the teahouse was haunted last night, so we turned back, but you were too sleepy, we had no choice but to open the door and come in by ourselves." Hu Lai began to make up nonsense.

But this explanation gave Gu Li a big sigh of relief. He patted his chest and said with a smile, "I'm really sleepy, sorry."

I watched his expression carefully from the side, and found that he really didn't seem to be pretending, just like a normal person, except that he would turn into a paper man at night, and he didn't know it at all.

The four of us exchanged a glance, and Huang Mao's previous guess was correct.

"Okay, let's go now." Huang Mao clapped his hands and stood up.

"Now?" Gu Li glanced at the dark night outside, hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded, got out of bed with a grunt, and got ready to go.
