Chapter 115 Three Taboos

From the very beginning, I sensed something was wrong with the T-shirt man.

First of all, he took the initiative to ask us for help and specifically asked Yin Xinyue to come. This incident itself is not in line with the character of the T-shirt man.

Then, the man in the T-shirt actually helped Zhou Laoshi with such a hot-faced and cold-hearted attitude. If someone had dared to treat him with this attitude before, the man in the T-shirt would have stabbed him with a sword.

When we encountered danger on the cliff, the man in the T-shirt didn't care about his teammates and took us back directly. This is even more unbelievable. The man in the T-shirt has always been a person who values ​​friendship and would rather be injured than his companions.

Now all signs indicate that there must be something wrong with the man in the T-shirt in front of him!

Could it be that someone is pretending to be a T-shirt man? As for why he pretended to be a T-shirt man, I don't know.

If this hypothesis is true, that is to say, is Yin Xinyue in danger now? Butcher Zhou and Laoshi Zhou were probably chess pieces arranged by the man in the T-shirt in front of him.

I felt nervous for a while, staring intensely at the slender back of the man in the T-shirt, wishing I could give him a sap now and tie him up first.

But I know what the T-shirt man is capable of. I'm afraid that even if I give him a sap, he can easily deal with me.

Then I can't sit still and wait for death, right? No, something must be done.

I forced myself to calm down, thought carefully for a long time, and finally made a plan in my mind.

I walked out of the house little by little, and when I walked to the door, the man in the T-shirt stopped me: "What are you doing?"

I yawned nonstop and said I had to go pee.

Only then did the T-shirt man let me go.

The toilets here are all connected with the pig pens and duck pens. The so-called toilet is just a latrine. I'm going to take the opportunity to go to the toilet and sneak out! I have to go to the mountains to find Yin Xinyue. Even if there is danger, I have to go. I can't let her, a girl, bear such fear in the mountains.

I observed the situation around me while peeing, and found that it was not difficult to get out. After I found a place to stay, I was ready to jump out.

But before I could take action, I suddenly saw a white hand reaching out from outside the wall, which scared me out of my mind.

But I still stood there pretending to be calm. Don't panic at this time, don't miss any small details, who knows if the other party is hinting at me?

When I saw that there was a note in that hand, I rushed forward and grabbed it before it fell into the pig pen.

This note appeared at this time, obviously conveying a message to me. Although it is not clear whether the other party is a friend or an enemy, there must be something very important written on this note.

I took a brief look at the note and was shocked. It was him, yes, it was indeed him.

I seem to understand, this is the truth!

With this note, I felt a lot more at ease. I quietly glanced outside and found that the man in the T-shirt had not noticed what was going on here, so I quickly burned the note with a lighter and walked out as if nothing had happened.

I have been secretly observing the expression of the man in the T-shirt, but fortunately he didn't become suspicious at all.

Because of that note, I am much more at ease now and know that as long as I don't go into the back mountain, I will be safe.

That note conveyed three messages to me.

First, the T-shirt man in front of me is a fake and he wants to harm me.

Second, this is part of T-Shirt Man's plan, which requires me to fully cooperate with this counterfeit operation. But it left me with three taboos: don't go near the red river, don't go near the talking well, and don't go to the moving mountains.

Third, Yin Xinyue is safe now. In order to make me believe it, the T-shirt man asked Yin Xinyue to sign the back of the note.

I can still recognize Yin Xinyue's delicate handwriting.

We stayed up until dawn, and sure enough, no danger occurred during this period.

As soon as day broke, I urged the man in the fake T-shirt to hurry up the mountain. The man in the fake T-shirt didn’t say anything. He took us to have a quick bite and then went up the mountain.

Li Xiaomeng was bedridden and a little weak, so I simply let him rest in the village. But before leaving, I secretly stuffed a note into Li Xiaomeng's hand and told him to hurry up and find a place after we left. Hide and don't linger in this place any longer.

This place is very unsafe. I'm worried that the fake T-shirt man and his accomplices will be detrimental to Li Xiaomeng.

I have always wanted to ask Li Xiaomeng, what happened yesterday? But the man in the fake T-shirt was always guarding us in the house. I had no chance, so I just kept silent.

Soon, the man in the fake T-shirt took me up the back mountain.

My mind was filled with the contents of the note, stay away from the red river, stay away from the moving mountains, and stay away from the talking wells.

These three taboos that the man in the T-shirt told me are all contrary to common sense. Whose river is red? Whose mountain can move? Whose well can still talk?

Forget it, never mind, just adapt to circumstances when the time comes! If you can really see these three wonders of the world, your hard work will not be in vain.

We ran along the dirt road to the mountain, and soon arrived at the place where we returned home yesterday.

There is no road here at all, and I don't know how I got to this place last night.

Moreover, this place is a wasteland, still some distance away from the orchard. Shrubs, grass and branches form a cage on all sides, giving people a depressing feeling.

I asked the man in the fake T-shirt, which direction should we go?

The man in the fake T-shirt casually glanced around and said, "Follow me!"

He was walking towards the hilltop where fruit trees were planted.

I quickly followed him, feeling a little confused.

That mountain was full of fruit trees, and villagers would go there to water and fertilize it on weekdays. If Yin Xinyue was imprisoned somewhere, he would be discovered in a minute, so why did he go to that mountain?

If I guess correctly, we will encounter those three wonders of the world next.

If I really encounter those three wonders of the world, it will prove that the man in the T-shirt in front of me is fake and he really wants to harm me.

Not long after walking along the mountain, I heard the sound of rushing water.

I frowned, this should be the sound of the stream. Could this be the red river mentioned in the note?

Hearing this sound, the man in the fake T-shirt moved faster and urged me to speed up.

We soon arrived near the sound. I glanced at it and found that it turned out to be a spring water flowing down from the mountain. The spring water was crystal clear and there were fish swimming around in it. It was a very interesting scene.

The water was not red, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

The man in the fake T-shirt washed his face and motioned for me to go up and wash my face too.

I haven't washed my face since I entered the village yesterday, and it feels dry and uncomfortable. So I squatted down, held a handful of sweet spring water, and splashed it on my face happily. I felt that my fatigue and tiredness were swept away.

The smell of fresh air filled my nose, which made me close my eyes comfortably.

But when I opened my eyes, I was shocked. The originally clear stream turned into a shocking reddish-brown color, and the speed of the water flow was much stronger than before.

There seems to be a faint smell of blood in the air!

Red river, this is a fucking red river.

I couldn't help but shiver and wanted to run away in a hurry. And when I turned around, I clearly saw the man in the fake T-shirt standing to the side, with a cold smile on his lips.

Seeing his sneer, my heart couldn't help but twitch.

What does it mean? Have I been tricked? Yes, I was close to the red river just now.

I was worried for a while, not knowing what would happen if I got caught.

The man in the fake T-shirt looked at me in a daze and said, "Let's go."

I quickly followed him, warning myself again and again this time that I must be more careful and never touch other taboos. A moving mountain, a talking well.

We bypassed the bushes and grass, and soon came to the only way up the mountain to the fruit farmers. The man in the fake T-shirt glanced at the top of the mountain and told me that Butcher Zhou used to go up the mountain to cut firewood and had a residence on the mountain. He felt that Butcher Zhou might have imprisoned Yin Xinyue on the top of the mountain.

I looked at him in surprise: "How do you know Butcher Zhou so well?"

"I've investigated it before." The man in the fake T-shirt said calmly.

"So, you have already suspected Butcher Zhou?"

This time the man in the fake T-shirt didn't answer me, but went up the mountain on his own. I don't know if he didn't hear me or didn't want to answer.

Before going up the mountain, I carefully observed the mountain to see if it was the moving mountain mentioned in the note.

Fortunately, the mountain showed no signs of movement and everything looked normal. And it’s lined with green trees, which makes it a good place to escape the heat.

The mountain road is rugged, but fortunately there is a road. It is much easier to walk through the bushes than before. It didn't take long for us to reach the top of the mountain.

The mountain is not high, but standing on the top of this mountain still gives people a magnificent view of all the mountains.

The blue sky seemed to be covering my head, white clouds were floating around me, and the ripe and translucent apples exuded an alluring smell. I picked an apple and took a bite. The sweet juice immediately penetrated my heart and spleen, making my originally dry throat, Very comfortable instantly.

A gust of fresh wind blew away the dryness on my body.

However, when I looked down the mountain again, I was completely dumbfounded!

Because the clouds halfway up the mountain began to move slowly and became more and more dense, I gradually couldn't see the ground clearly.

The scene in front of me gave me the illusion that it was not the clouds that were moving, but the mountain that was moving.

A moving mountain!

No, the note warned me not to get close to the moving mountain, but now I climbed up on my own.

Frightened and annoyed, I couldn't help but turn around and stare at the man in the fake T-shirt. I noticed that the sneer at the corner of his mouth seemed to be getting thicker and thicker.

But when I looked at him, he quickly put away his sneer and returned to his usual expressionless face.

what do I do? If I run down the mountain now, is there any chance? It should be impossible, after all, it has already violated the taboo...

I looked at the man in the fake T-shirt tremblingly, feeling that I was just a chess piece in his hands. He could manipulate me as he pleased, but I was powerless.

That note was true. Why did you talk about the red river and the moving hills? It would have been better if you just told me not to go near the creek or the hills with fruit trees. Alas, this quibble is really deadly.

The man in the fake T-shirt said: "Let's go and see if we can find Yin Xinyue nearby."

But I didn’t dare to continue walking. According to his guidance, I would definitely get closer to the talking well. I had to break the deadlock of being led by the man in the T-shirt!
