"Nothing, I just came here to travel and relax!"
Hu Qi smiled.
The driver heard this and didn't think much about it.
He sent so many people, and there were also many young people like Hu Qi who came out to relax alone.
At this time, Hu Qi changed the topic again and asked with some curiosity, "Brother, are you familiar with Shidun County?"
"Of course."
The driver chuckled, with a bit of pride in his tone.
"I have been driving a taxi for more than ten years, and around this Hanyang City, I can still feel the way clearly even with my eyes closed.
As for Shidun County, I am very familiar with it. I lived there with my grandmother for five or six years, but recently she has left, so I go back less often..."
As he spoke, his words were unconsciously tinged with sadness.
Hu Qi heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and then he asked.
"Well, brother, do you know Fox Tail Mountain?"
When the middle-aged driver heard this, he was stunned for a moment and did not respond immediately.
Instead, he looked through the rearview mirror in the car and carefully looked at Hu Qi sitting in the back seat. A strange look flashed across his rough face.
After thinking for a moment, his face became serious.
He said, "Young man, are you trying to climb Fox Tail Mountain?
Seeing that you are about the same age as my child, uncle, I have to say one more thing. Although the environment of that place looks good, it is really not a place suitable for playing.
Moreover, an iron fence is set up at the foot of the mountain to strictly prohibit outsiders from entering Fox Tail Mountain. "
Hu Qi, who was sitting in the back row, had a calm expression on his face.
The purpose of his coming here this time was precisely for that Fox Tail Mountain.
Previously in Security Agency's data room, Hu Qi accidentally discovered some records about Nightmare Incident.
Nightmare Incident There are all kinds of strange things.
Some only appear in a certain area.
Others have strong mobility and can change positions at any time.
However, they all have one thing in common, that is, once they kill everyone in Nightmare Incident.
The nightmare will disappear temporarily, and it will take some time before it appears again.
However.
There are exceptions to everything.
Among them is a very special Nightmare Incident.
After appearing, it will always stay in a certain area.
It will not move. Even if it kills everyone in the area, it will still not dissipate, like some kind of special natural phenomenon.
At a certain time period or under certain conditions, once people get close, they will enter it.
This Nightmare Incident is extremely tricky.
In addition, it is not mobile, so under normal circumstances, Sword Bearer will not choose to die.
Instead, they chose to block it.
Strictly prohibit others from approaching.
There are more than a dozen similar ones in Yu Country.
There is one in this Fox Tail Mountain.
Therefore, Hu Qi wanted to come and have a look.
As for why he chose this place, it was because it was recorded in Security Agency.
The existence that had banned Nightmare Incident in the world for eighty years had been here before.
He is very interested in this person. Maybe there will be clues about that person here.
As for whether this is really the case, Hu Qi doesn't care.
Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I came over to take a look. Even if there is no trace of that person, no matter what, if I solve this Nightmare Incident, I can still get Dream Eye.
At this moment, I saw that the driver seemed to know something inside.
Hu Qi is naturally happy to chat with him.
Maybe you can get some useful information from it.
Thinking of this, Hu Qi said casually.
"I don't go there, but I heard about this place accidentally on the Internet before. I am a little curious. What is wrong with this mountain? Why are they not allowed to enter?"
When the driver heard this, he looked obviously relaxed.
He said after taking a long breath.
"That's good. Don't come near that place. I'm telling you..."
At this moment, something unexpected happened.
An off-road vehicle with a red exterior suddenly rushed over from behind and changed lanes without warning.
The posture was very fast, sudden, and without any warning.
Fortunately, the driver was an experienced veteran and faced this sudden emergency.
He reacted very quickly, turned the steering wheel quickly with both hands, and the car narrowly escaped while grazing the edge.
"Don't you know how to look at the road when you drive! Why are you rushing to reincarnate in such a strong way?"
The middle-aged driver suddenly became furious. He rolled down the window, stuck his head out, and cursed at the top of his lungs.
The windows of the off-road vehicle in front also slowly lowered, but a few palms with their middle fingers stretched out.
Immediately afterwards.
Several laughters from men and women came from the car, and then the car stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
It flew away in an instant, leaving only a harsh roar.
"Hmph, if I had been young for a while, I would have taught these unqualified guys a lesson!"
The driver cursed again, but soon he took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
After all, now that I have an elder and a younger one, I can no longer be as impulsive as I was when I was young.
Thinking of this, the driver turned to look at Hu Qi sitting in the back seat.
He said slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, young man, I frightened you."
"It's okay."
Hu Qi waved his hand, and then brought the topic back.
"Brother, can you tell me more about Fox Tail Mountain?"
"Okay, if you want to hear it, then I will tell you about it. However, most of this is what I heard from the older generation. You can just listen to it as a story. We still have to believe in science."
The driver first explained this sentence and showed that he was a staunch materialist, then he spoke and continued.
"About Fox Tail Mountain, I heard it from my maternal great-grandfather when I was a child. It was a winter more than eighty years ago. Yu Country was caught in a war. Fortunately, Shidun County had a special geographical environment, so it was not greatly affected.
Dunshi County at that time was not called this name, but Blackstone Village.
Later, due to the development of the times, the location was moved and combined with several surrounding villages, it became Shidun County.
Normally, it is like spring here all year round, but that year was an exception, the temperature dropped extremely low.
Because of the severe cold weather, food becomes essential.
My maternal great-grandfather discussed with several young and strong men in the village about going into the mountains for hunting.
There was no such thing as wildlife protection at that time.
Faced with this proposal, no one refused, so they thought about hunting more wild animals so that the people in the village could survive that rare and difficult winter.
Who could have imagined that going there would be like stepping into an abyss of eternal destruction. "
"After entering the mountains, things went smoothly at first. Soon we hunted several wild animals, including plump hares and roe deer with sharp horns.
Everyone's face was filled with the joy of harvest, as if they had seen that the people in the village could live a stable life relying on these prey for a while. "
"But who could have expected that God would play tricks on people, and just when they were about to go down the mountain, a blizzard roared in without warning.
The large flakes of snow were like a huge white curtain, sweeping over the sky and covering the earth.
In the blink of an eye, the road down the mountain was buried in thick snow and disappeared.
Everyone looked at the vast white snow, and had no choice but to find a cave, planning to spend one night in the mountain first.
The sky was getting dark, and the wind was howling wildly outside the cave. The sound was like the roar of an evil ghost.
It seemed as if the entire mountain was being torn apart.
Everyone sat around in the cave, relying on the weak bonfire to keep warm.
My heart was agitated, and I felt vaguely uneasy.
At this rate, whether we can go down the mountain tomorrow is a question.
Just then.
One person seemed to have discovered something and pointed into the distance.
Follow the man's fingers and look.
I saw a few lights shining in the mountains and forests in the distance. In this dim night, the light seemed particularly dazzling.
See this scene.
Everyone, you look at me and I look at you. I feel curious and scared at the same time. I hesitated for a long time, but in the end I couldn't resist the curiosity in my heart.
Thinking that maybe other hunters were trapped there, they decided to go there together to have a look, so that they could take care of each other.
So.
A group of people walked towards the direction of the light.
The closer he got, the more chill he got into his bones, as if the air around him was frozen.
Every time you take a breath, you can feel the ice particles rushing around in your lungs, making you shiver from the cold.
Wait until you finally get close.
Only then did he discover that the source of the light was actually a small village.
In the village, several houses were dimly lit, and smoke was still rising from the chimneys.
Although I had never heard of a village in Fox Tail Mountain before, I didn't think much about it.
In that chaotic era, I could only think of him as someone who ran into the mountains to escape the war.
Things like this are not uncommon.
It seemed that their arrival had alarmed the people in the village. After a while, some figures came out of the house.
Those people were wearing rather strange coarse cloth clothes, and their faces looked particularly pale under the reflection of the snow.
After hearing about what happened to my great-grandfather and his party.
He warmly invited them to stay in the village for one night.
My great-grandfather and the others were filled with gratitude at that time. They just felt that they had met a kind-hearted person, so they followed him into the village without hesitation.
But when they entered the village, they found that it was a bit quiet here, except for the few people who came to greet them.
There was no trace of anyone else, and not even the usual crowing of cocks and dogs barking could be heard.
But at that time, everyone was so overwhelmed by the rare warmth and a place to rest that they didn't think much about it.
Everyone was arranged into several houses, and my great-grandfather lived with two other companions.
As the night progressed, my great-grandfather went to sleep in a different bed.
After waiting for a long time, I felt sleepy and fell into a drowsy state.
He heard a rustling sound.
The sound was like someone chewing something. In this silent night, it seemed particularly clear and penetrating.
