Chapter 20: Peel away the cocoon and find a way to break the situation!

Phew~

Occasionally, a breeze blew across his face. Zhang Hao looked at the familiar cliff in front of him, but at the same time, it seemed particularly unfamiliar. His clear eyes were full of confusion.

Who am I...where am I?

What do I want... to do?

The three consecutive questions from the bottom of his heart made his brain a little confused and he couldn't even figure out what was going on.

If he remembered correctly, he should have returned to the foot of the mountain along the forest path with the funeral procession behind him.

But why...are you back again?

Moreover, Zhang Hao was surprised to find that he seemed to no longer remember what he was doing just now, or in other words, the path he just walked.

There were some deviations in his memory.

"This...why is this coming back again?"

Someone in the crowd whispered something.

In an instant, the crowd's noises started one after another, and everyone seemed to be emotionally aroused at this moment, causing them to recall the most terrifying and worrying thing in their hearts.

"We, we must have encountered something bad. We often heard from the old people in the village that there are many... many unclean things in the mountains."

"Maybe, maybe we made too much noise at the funeral today and disturbed that thing? He, he is not punishing us! It must be like this."

"Impossible, there are so many mountain spirits and wild monsters. They are used by old people to scare children. I have never encountered such a situation during funerals before. Why did they suddenly come to our place like this!"

"We, we won't be unable to get out for the rest of our lives, right? I want to go home, and my baby is still at home waiting for me to go back..."

"Don't, don't say that. We will definitely be able to go back, definitely... we will definitely be able to go back. There must be something causing trouble. Let's find that thing and kill it!"

"Please, please let us go. We are all miserable people. As long as you let us go back, we will make offerings of incense every day, and we will definitely...definitely not disturb you anymore!"

Choking, soft sobbing, hoarse with fear, and timidity as he knelt down to beg for mercy.

For a time, it was vividly displayed in the crowd.

Zhang Hao suddenly turned around and found that many people in the crowd were kneeling on the ground, begging and crying bitterly towards the forest behind them.

His pupils shrank and his heart thumped.

Sure enough, the thing I was most worried about happened.

When encountering such weird things in the mountains, the first thing to do is to stay calm. You must be as calm as possible.

Once you get into panic, you're in trouble.

The original opportunity to get out of the mountains will be completely lost, and it will basically be impossible to get out of the mountains.

"Haozi, what's going on... we, why are we back again?" Gao Hai's voice had a slight tremor, and there was obvious fear on his face, and his eyes looked to both sides from time to time.

Even he panicked.

This is indeed the case. No one can stay calm when encountering such a strange situation on the day of the funeral.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, everyone must calm down in this situation." Zhang Hao said quickly.

Gao Hai nodded ignorantly, and then he quickly ran to the team to comfort everyone.

Zhang Hao, on the other hand, walked to the back of the team, minding his own business.

He stood in front of the forest path, with his back to everyone, and his eyes were burning as he looked deep into the forest, which was not illuminated by the sun, was quiet and seemed to be completely dark.

The situation just now was so weird that it couldn't be explained clearly by science.

From the beginning, when he followed the funeral procession on this forest path, he didn't feel anything was wrong at first, everything was so normal.

But just as he was walking, he suddenly seemed a little confused. His mood was sluggish, his thoughts were slow, and he was confused for a while, as if he had lost his goal and didn't know what to do.

Then, he saw the itching ray of sunlight, and then... returned to the cliff.

Zhang Hao could clearly know that he and the funeral procession had encountered a "ghost beating the wall" in the mountains.

The record in [Illustrated Records of Mountain Walking Travel] is called: [Encountering Mountain Ghosts].

As the name suggests, they encountered a spirit in the mountains, blinded the spirit, disturbed the five senses, or were controlled by the "mountain ghost".

However, there is only one general term for "encountering mountain ghosts". There are more than a dozen ways of "encountering mountain ghosts" recorded in the "Mountain Travel Notes" alone.

For example, seeing familiar people or dead relatives in the mountains.

For example, when you find a treasure in the mountains, you find it is a pile of animal dung, or something weird.

For example, when walking in the mountains, I saw a fox getting married, a weasel asking for a seal, or other weird and bizarre things.

There are several types of situations today.

One is to really encounter a mountain ghost, be manipulated and teased by the mountain ghost, and be trapped in one place without being able to get out.

Another kind is that there are mountain spirits with extremely strong spiritual energy nearby. The mountain spirits protect themselves in order not to be found by others, so this situation will also occur.

Others are to offend the mountain gods and punish them.

When facing these several situations, corresponding solutions are also needed.

This is why Zhang Hao stood in front of the forest path and carefully recalled everything that had just happened.

He wants to find out the reasons for all this, and then come up with corresponding solutions based on the found reasons.

His thoughts were flowing, and he thought about it patiently and carefully.

Just when the noise of the crowd gradually subsided, just when his heart was completely calm, just when his tense nerves relaxed.

Zhang Hao suddenly remembered that just before he was walking on the path and his thoughts were stagnant, he seemed to have seen something "floating" in front of his eyes.

That's right, it just "floated" past.

Zhang Hao didn't notice this at the time because the thing was "colorless and tasteless", like an illusion, but also real. Moreover, at that moment, his thoughts had become stagnant, and he had no time to reflect what it was.

, it passed by in a flash.

Moreover, he also recalled that before his thoughts were about to stagnate, he secretly glanced at the villagers, and their eyes were already absent-minded and full of confusion.

This shows that those villagers are likely to be tricked earlier than themselves.

And the reason why I was recruited late...

He lowered his head and looked at the pair of straw sandals on his feet.

Most likely it's the straw sandals that play the role.

This pair of straw sandals is woven from a special material. It has the function of not getting lost or trapped in the mountains, and can avoid "encountering mountain ghosts" to a certain extent.

However, this time he was not just alone, but with a large group of people.

As a result, the role of straw sandals is greatly reduced.

Therefore, you will also fall victim to it.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao finally understood the cause and effect.

He turned his head and looked at the fearful or sluggish villagers behind him. He took a deep breath and shouted in a loud voice: "Folks, I already know what's going on. All you have to do is follow me.

If you follow my orders, you will be able to go down the mountain!"
