In 2011, a former Victim recommended that I join a QQ group, which was said to be filled with colleagues from Guangdong Cultivation. At that time, I had not been in Guangzhou for long, and I was eager to meet some people and expand my network. Without any hesitation, I joined in. There were not many people in the group, about twenty or so. No one spoke after I entered, and I didn't take the initiative to speak. Instead, I read through the information of everyone in the group. Most of the people inside are young people between 22 and 30 years old. Group Leader I am 29 years old and my name is Peng. What makes me feel strange is that there are several girls in there. I wondered for a while, are there still girls in this field now? Could it be Yin-Yang Eye like Sayo or some descendants of Underworld Witch? When my thoughts were flying, the Group inside Leader suddenly typed a sentence: On the 15th of this month, I will go exploring in an abandoned Hermitage in Shunde. Is there anyone with me? As soon as I asked this question, it was like a pot was exploding. The news of the inquiry One after another. I watched quietly for more than ten minutes without saying anything. After reading it, I learned several important pieces of information. One: Everyone calls this Group Leader Brother Mao, and it has a high prestige in the group. Two: The abandoned Hermitage they are going to is on a mountain, and there is not a single house in the mountain. Three: This Hermitage was discovered by a group of travel friends while camping, and it was definitely not clean inside. Four: So far, only one person has responded to Brother Mao’s call, and that person’s name is Xiao Yu. Apart from that, I didn’t see any discussion information about Spirit God in it. I couldn't help but type a line: The abandoned Hermitage was not clean inside. When I asked what exactly happened, it was like a stone thrown into an abyss, without making a sound. . They were quickly wiped out without a single response. I secretly wondered why these people didn't discuss the most critical things, but kept asking whether they should go to this or that. Reluctantly, I typed another line of words: It is very dangerous to rush in without knowing what is going on. This time I responded again, and the friend named Xiao Yu immediately said: "Are you doubting Brother Mao's ability?" I quickly explained: That's not what I meant, I just said that we are all in the same industry. , everyone knows that you should do things according to your ability, I am just a reminder. "Sign up if you go, don't bb if you don't have the guts to go, there is so much nonsense. Everyone knows what Brother Mao is capable of. May I ask what you are questioning here?" The same Xiao Yu immediately replied to me. I was speechless for a while, and even began to wonder if this group was really all Cultivation people. When I was really hesitating whether to quit this boring group, Brother Mao posted a line of text: Xiao Yu, don’t talk nonsense. Fellow Taoist, I'm sorry, are you interested in going to that abandoned Hermitage with us? Don't worry, what happened in Hermitage is not serious. I'm here to keep you safe. Before I had time to answer, Zhang Min's girl also sent a line: Brother Mao, I'm going too. I've wanted to meet you for a long time, and I just have time on the 15th. If that's the case, go ahead. I just want to see how awesome Brother Mao that everyone in the group is admiring is. I slowly typed out a few words on the keyboard: Three is missing and one is missing. Then I won’t be able to get it all together if I don’t go. BrotherMao, count me in. After posting, I clicked BrotherMao to add a friend, and then left the group. one way or another. I don't like the atmosphere of this group. If I don't like it, there's no need to stay. After Brother Mao added me, he started asking me if I was from Cultivation, what sect I studied under, and if I had seen ghosts. I wanted to say Qiaoling, but he must have never heard of it. He hasn't heard of it and can't pretend to know it, and he won't directly say that he hasn't heard of it, so I don't need to cause him trouble on this issue. I said directly: "I know a little bit about fatigue. If the soul in that place is not very fierce, I will have no problem protecting myself." Brother Mao directly sent a phone number and asked me to contact him on the 15th. He also said that he might have to stay overnight, so he needed to prepare a tent, and then he briefly told me about the Hermitage situation reported by travel friends. The situation he described sounds very simple. It should be just a wandering lonely soul hiding in Hermitage. He was disturbed by a few travel friends and made some scary moves. There is no danger. I said: Well, I will be there on time. It was only the tenth day of the lunar month and the fifteenth day was still early, so I had nothing to prepare. Just when I was about to turn off the computer and go to eat, the girl named Zhang Min suddenly added me. The verification message was: "Hello, we are going to explore Hermitage on the 15th. Can you add me as a friend first to get familiar with it?" I took a look I'm so happy, this isn't a blind date, this is familiarity. But I still agreed, and then politely chatted with her for a few words. Judging from the way this girl spoke, she was probably a little unsure about an adventure and seemed to be still hesitating and struggling. And I am sure that she is just a bystander, and not all the people in the group are Cultivation like that Victim said.
I didn't encourage her to go, nor did I persuade her not to go. Everything was her own choice. I didn't give any substantive opinions. In many things, you have to choose based on your own feelings. The opinions of others are always just a disturbing factor, which may be good or bad. Rather than doing this, it is better not to give her any advice, not to mention that I don’t know her at all. I hastily ended my chat with Zhang Min, turned off the computer, and started looking for food. In the intervening few days, I didn’t go to QQ. At that time, I was not very happy to sit in front of the computer. I always felt that it was a waste of time. No matter if I had something to do or not, I liked to go outside and take a look. Maybe it was for this city. I am curious, even if I wander around aimlessly every day, I don’t feel bored. On the evening of the 14th, I remembered tomorrow’s adventure appointment. After turning on the computer, I realized that I had forgotten to give Brother Mao my number. Brother Mao sent a series of question marks. Zhang Min also left many messages, almost every day. have. I quickly apologized to them, asked Brother Mao for the gathering address, then gave him my phone number, and promised to arrive on time tomorrow. The meeting point is at Shiqiao, Brother Mao drives by himself. Then take us there together. It was five o'clock in the afternoon. I went to Shunde to eat Dinner. Shunde cuisine is a famous Cantonese dish and tastes very good, so I wholeheartedly support this proposal. On the fifteenth day, after lunch, I started preparing the things I needed for the expedition, which were some of the usual camping equipment. Then I simplified my usual Cloth Bag. It’s inconvenient to bring too many things, mainly things for self-defense and evil spirits. There is also a simple set of Soul Sending Array items, and I threw everything else out of the Cloth Bag. I bring the Soul Sending Array just in case, if it really is a lost Spirit God, I don’t mind giving it a ride. At 4:50 in the afternoon, I carried a big mountaineering bag and showed up at the agreed gathering place on time. Zhang Min had already arrived. She was about 25 years old, about 1.6 meters tall, and wore a pair of sneakers. , a pair of fairly slim-fitting sweatpants, a jacket on the upper body, and a hiking bag on his back. She exuded a youthful and lively atmosphere, with medium-long hair and fairly delicate facial features. She had the temperament of a naughty girl next door, even though I was younger than her at that time. After greeting each other, Zhang Min said: "I didn't expect you to be a Handsome Guy." My face turned red. Just when I was about to praise her, Brother Mao called me at the right time. , I picked up the phone, and Brother Mao said: "We'll be there in five minutes. The license plate number is Guangdong axxxx." I hummed and hung up the phone. Zhang Min is a girl who talks a lot. Within five minutes, she kept talking about food, clothing, housing, transportation, local customs, and everything. Finally had to go to my phone number. Fortunately, five minutes is not long. Just when I thought I was about to suffer from chronic embarrassment, Brother Mao's car arrived. Xiao Yu was already sitting in the passenger seat. After saying hello to each other, Zhang Min and I got in the car and sat in the back seat. Brother Mao is a man who looks very young, but during the conversation I learned that he is almost thirty and ready to get married. Xiao YuLike Zhang Min, he is about the same age as me and a chatterbox, but he seems to have a natural hostility towards me, but I don’t care about his attitude towards me, because it’s not my fault that he is handsome. After chatting, I realized that we couldn't talk together at all, so we just took a nap. I don’t know how long it took, but the car stopped. Brother Mao said: "Let's eat first. We may consume a lot at night, so we need to eat more for dinner. I'll treat you." Then he led the three of us into a small restaurant. The store is not big and the environment is average, but there are many people there. This kind of place usually offers good quality and low price, which is also my favorite place. After everyone sat down, the waiter brought the menu, and I said: "Brother Mao, it's better for me to treat you. If you take me to play, I have to pay." Brother Mao I wanted to be polite at first. Xiao Yu rushed to say: "Brother Mao, if someone wants to invite him, let him invite him. Let's just take care of him more at night. Seeing a real ghost is no joke. Don't be scared to tears then, haha. "I smiled and said nothing. This Xiao Yu is really funny. He doesn’t sound like a Cultivation person at first glance. Maybe he has really seen Spirit God, but he is definitely not the kind of person who behaves in a moral way. At best, he is just a little bolder. But when you encounter many things, you don’t just have to be bold. Seeing that I ignored him, Zhang Min and Brother Mao also smiled awkwardly. Brother Mao said: "Xiao Liu did you bring something written today to ward off evil spirits and protect yourself?" I said: "Yeah, Brother Mao Don’t worry, I won’t hold you back when the time comes. I still have some basic protective measures.” “It’s nice to say, don’t be scared and run around. It’s hard to find us in the wilderness. Man, last time I was exploring a real Haunted House with Brother Mao and saw a ghost. Another person in the group ran outside as hard as he could and bumped into the door, losing all his teeth. Quite a few. Hahaha" Xiao Yu The words that were both overt and treacherous came out again.
I let out a chuckle, ignoring what he said. I focused on savoring the authentic Shunde cuisine in front of me, automatically tuning out his words. There was no need to let someone who didn't matter affect my mood. Meanwhile, Zhang Min secretly sent me a message: "You have such a good temper." I replied playfully, "It's not the events themselves that affect your mood, but your attitude towards them." After sending it, I closed the chat and continued enjoying the Shunde grass carp intestines on the table. The delicious, rich-flavored intestines intertwined with my pristine white teeth, creating a sense of harmony, like a captivating piece of art that unfortunately, I couldn't see myself.
By the time we finished eating, it was already dark. Brother Mao said we were still over ten kilometers away from our destination. Moreover, it was on Village Road, which was difficult to navigate.
The road was indeed challenging, but we arrived near the Hermitage around eight o'clock. The Hermitage was at the foot of the mountain, a few hundred meters away from Village Road. Although it was called Village Road, it was actually a muddy path with potholes just wide enough for a car to pass through. Fortunately, there were no villages nearby for several kilometers, so no cars would come by. We parked the car by the roadside and turned on our flashlights to head towards the Hermitage. To be safe, I suggested that Brother Mao leave a phone number in the car. Brother Mao chuckled and said, "It's fine; with this old car of mine, no one would bother to steal it."
After packing up our things, we prepared to walk towards the Hermitage not far away. It had rained just yesterday, and the dirt path was still damp. Brother Mao led the way while each of us held a powerful flashlight behind him. Zhang Min even took out a hiking stick to walk slowly. The weather wasn't great; even though it was the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the moon was obscured by dark clouds. Apart from our flashlight beams, there were no other sources of light; we couldn't even make out the outline of the mountains...
Thank you to Chen Yuxin for supporting with six consecutive 520 Iron Coins again and for the Support Soul Sending crown. I don't have the energy to write today; I'll add another chapter for two friends tomorrow. Good night, everyone.
