    They walked the whole journey not too slowly. In five hours and eight minutes, they were able to walk more than 30 kilometers in total. There were 96 marks in total, and they could encounter one in an average of more than 300 meters. That is to say, they walked from a mark toThe next one, it only takes three minutes.When the two of them walked together before, she always felt that Jun Zhi would make a mark in a while, and she wanted to say that there was no need to do so frequently.

    Now that Bao Le is walking this distance alone, these three minutes seem to be as long as a century.

    She groped all the way against the wall on the left, and every time she walked a certain distance, she would use a flashlight to search the wall on the right to see if there were any previous marks.In this way, it took her more than three minutes to reach the first signpost.Jun Zhi's footsteps were faster than hers, it didn't even take him three minutes to reach the first mark.

    The darkness and silence along the way was really unbearable, and Bao Le almost walked forward bravely. While walking, she wondered if she had encountered a ghost hitting the wall, and why she hadn't looked at the sign for a long time.And there was no response from the walkie-talkie, so forget it if she didn't find it, did Jun Zhi not find it?

    When she was about to give up turning around, the flashlight finally caught the familiar trace.

    Bao Le breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense string also relaxed.She picked up the walkie-talkie, only to realize that her hands were still shaking.Licking her lips steadily, the little girl brought the walkie-talkie close to her mouth: "I'm at the first mark."

    Jun Zhi had been leaning against the wall and waiting for her for a long time. Although his face was expressionless, his brows could not help but frown as time went by.The little girl is definitely not the only one who wants to retreat.He didn't expect to be so happy until the voice came from the walkie-talkie, and his deep eyes seemed to have light in the darkness.

    "Jun Zhi?"

    He pressed the speak button: "I'm here."

    Bao Le was finally completely relieved, thinking that it was nothing, if she didn't scare herself, she would definitely perform better.

    The little girl regained her spirits and walked forward.

    "Jun Zhi, I'm going to the second signpost, you follow my pace!"

    Jun Zhi gave a soft "hmm", but no one saw the corners of his mouth slightly raised in the darkness.

    ...

    In other words, they walked for about an hour.

    There are no problems with the first twenty-three marks. Not only are there no problems with the marks, but also up, down, left, right, left, right, and right. Every inch of the walls, floors, tiles, and ceilings has been carefully checked by Bao Le.None of them were seen.

    Counting it, it has been more than six hours. This damn corridor is really smelly and long.

    Bao Le set off from the twenty-third mark listlessly. The long period of nothing happened made her relax her vigilance. If Jun Zhi didn't talk much, she would be able to drag him forward on the spot while chatting.

    But after walking for another two or three minutes, she heard a strange sound.

    The corridor was quite quiet, that was the level at which she could hear her own breathing. The previous journey was boring, so she would occasionally count how many steps she needed to walk from one marker to another.At first, she also thought that there would be no one else in this corridor except her, until she was walking, and suddenly realized...

    There seemed to be two footsteps in the corridor.

    For this reason, she deliberately stopped her steps and held her breath to confirm.The footsteps were very light, even to her ears, it was three points lighter than her own breathing.At first she thought it was something, so she slowed down and walked on tiptoe.

    It was later discovered that it was not. The reason why the footsteps were light was because they were far away at first.

    Bao Le turned off the flashlight, pressed against the wall, and hid himself in the dark, not daring to make a sound.She and Jun Zhi have only walked forty-six road signs in total, but only half the distance of the corridor, so the person walking towards her must not be Junzhi.

    Could it be that someone was in this tunnel before?

    Maybe it's not human...

    Her grandma told her since she was a child that she was born in a cloudy year, a cloudy moon, and a cloudy day. She has a very light horoscope and is easy to provoke unclean things.She has been jumping back and forth between belief and disbelief. Although she has never really seen a ghost in the first twenty years of her life, she cannot reflect this so-called "eight-character lightness", but she maintains a sense of awe. She thinks it is not a ghost.bad thing.

    What's more, isn't this a tomb?

    It's no wonder that she has read too many literary works, and she always feels that it is not complete without a zongzi in the tomb, don't you think so.

    Well, it was pure nonsense before, but she is actually terrified now.

    The footsteps became more and more clear, and Bao Le basically defined this thing as a "ghost" or "zongzi" in his heart.She just wanted to complain about this thing, and she walked quite steadily, strolling in the courtyard, as if it was his home.

    She didn't dare to press the walkie-talkie, fearing that some voice would distract her, and if she raised her head the next second, she would kiss the skeleton face to face.

    Now, she only dared to concentrate on looking ahead, listening to the approaching footsteps, and judging how far away she was.There was a corner in front of her, and she couldn't see it all at a glance, and the footsteps sounded like she had reached the corner and was about to turn.

    Bao Le's heart rose to his throat.

    Suddenly her eyes lit up, and the light made Bao Le who was hiding in the darkness see a black rice dumpling in a daze.

    "what!!!!!"

    Bao Le screamed and ran back quickly. She didn't care about her sore calves after walking for hours. She even felt that going to participate in the 100-meter race now would definitely bring honor to the country..

    ...

    After running for a while, Bao Le felt that he couldn't run any longer, and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, she held onto the wall in time to protect her delicate face.

    She wanted to look back to see if the thing behind had caught up, but she really didn't have the courage.Just as he was struggling, there was a "stinging" sound from the walkie-talkie in his hand, which made Bao Le's hands tremble in fright, and the walkie-talkie fell to the ground hard, and the battery fell out.

    When Bao Le picked up the walkie-talkie, she confirmed that there was no one behind her, and the terrifying footsteps could no longer be heard, and now only her own "wheezing, wheezing" breathing was heard in the entire corridor.

    Trembling, he assembled the walkie-talkie, and a voice came from there immediately.

    "Baole, Jiang Bao Le!"

    She had never heard Jun Zhi's anxious voice before. The little girl hurriedly turned on the walkie-talkie, and when she opened her mouth, there was a whimpering voice: "Junzhi, I, I, I saw the zongzi!"

    Jun Zhi was a little anxious: "Are you injured?"

    "Well, that's not true," Bao Le huddled himself in a corner of the corridor, and shined the flashlight on the road ahead, "I seem to have run away."

    "What the hell happened?"

    Bao Le lowered his voice: "I heard footsteps just now, and then I saw a black-haired rice dumpling. Fortunately, I reacted quickly...otherwise you would only see me in the stomach of the rice dumpling."

    He really didn't expect that at this time, she would still be in the mood to joke.

    "I'm coming to find you."

    "Wait," Bao Le interrupted him, "I seem to hear the footsteps of 'it' again."

    "walking back."

    Bao Le also knew that the wisest choice for her now was to go back, but for some reason, her legs didn't follow her head.

    She spoke slowly: "Jun Zhi, you may not believe it, but I feel like 'it' is going in the opposite direction from me."

    Jun Zhi froze for a moment.

    "We've been walking in this corridor for so long, and we haven't seen anything. So it's good news now, isn't it? If there are zongzi here, at least it can prove that there is a door nearby, and it may even be the main tomb." She suddenly hadA quixotic idea of tracking zongzi.

    Jun Zhi was silent for a long time, so long that Bao Le felt guilty that he was mad because of himself.

    Bao Le carefully followed the footsteps all the way, keeping what she thought was the best distance, until the footsteps suddenly stopped.Before she could react, a voice came from the intercom almost simultaneously.

    "Just now, I heard your voice." Jun Zhidao.

    Bao Le focused all his attention on the sound of the footsteps, and had a vague premonition of ominousness."What did you say?" She casually whispered a perfunctory sentence, and then her face changed - the footsteps sounded again, this time walking towards her!

    Jun Zhi's voice on the intercom did not stop.

    He said, "I got to the twenty-fourth marker and, like you, I heard footsteps."

    "Besides, I heard your scream."

    Not over the intercom, but a real scream.

    "I heard you screaming, running farther and farther away."

    At that moment, Bao Le stood in the center of the corridor with cold hands and feet, hearing the sound of approaching footsteps and the calm voice of Jun Zhi on the intercom.Finally, with the disappearance of the last word on the walkie-talkie, the footsteps also stopped, standing less than a hundred meters away from Bao Le, just like before, a beam of light shone on Bao Le.

    Now, she saw clearly.

    The "black zongzi" she was talking about turned out to be Jun Zhi in black clothes, exactly the same as when they parted, even Jun Zhi with short hair.

    "Jun Zhi" held a flashlight, and the light shone on her face.

    She held the walkie-talkie tightly, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she couldn't speak a word.

    It is impossible for the real Jun Zhi to appear here, he is at least seventeen or eighteen kilometers away from her.She slowly raised the flashlight and shone towards "Jun Zhi".At that moment, "Jun Zhi" took another step and walked towards her.Bao Le told himself, to escape, to escape...to escape!But her legs were like lead, completely out of control.

    "Jun Zhi" walked up to her, and Bao Le finally let himself close his eyes at the last moment.

    Without the scent of sandalwood on his body, he really isn't Jun Zhizhi.

    The footsteps overlapped with her, and then slowly moved away.

    Bao Le opened her eyes in surprise. There was no shadow of "Jun Zhi" in front of her. She turned around subconsciously, and that figure, who was exactly the same as "Jun Zhi", had already walked two or three steps away from her, as if he had come fromShe passed through her body.The distance between them was not too far at that time, Bao Le stretched out his hand obsessively, and saw with his own eyes that his arm passed through the abdomen of "Jun Zhi", and the person who had been carrying her forward did not look back.

    She picked up the walkie-talkie with the other hand: "Jun Zhi."

    The shadow of "Jun Zhi" paused for a moment, picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand, and then, as if realizing something, he didn't use the walkie-talkie to reply, but turned his head and glanced in her direction.

    He saw her, but it seemed like he didn't.

    Bao Le watched his lips move, but she couldn't hear his voice.

    "How could this be?" Bao Le took a big step back, his mind blank.

    The shadow of "Jun Zhi" said to the intercom: "What happened?"

    Bao Le took several deep breaths on the spot, held the walkie-talkie for a few times, and finally could speak incoherently: "I see you, Jun Zhi, you are standing in front of me...you just came out of my bodyPassed through, I don't know what happened, but the footsteps I heard just now, the zongzi I said...it's you, Jun Zhi, it's you! Why did it become like this, it's all too weird."

    Her voice trembled, as if she was drowning in a huge quagmire, unable to extricate herself.

    In order to verify her words, Jun Zhi turned the flashlight in her direction.A moment of direct white light made Bao Le dizzy.

    Bao Le covered Junzhi's light on her face with his hands, and in a trance, the walkie-talkie fell to the ground with a "bang", grabbing her attention.She subconsciously bent down to pick it up, only to find that Jun Zhi in front of her also made the same movement.But he didn't want to pick up the walkie-talkie, but was looking for something suspiciously.

    Bao Le waved his hand in front of his eyes, even though his hand was so close that it almost brushed his eyelashes, he still didn't respond.

    He can't see her.

    But it should be, he can hear the voice from her side, Jun Zhi's hearing has always been very good.

    Bao Le reinstalled the walkie-talkie, but the walkie-talkie that fell twice didn't know which part was wrong, so it didn't respond at all.Bao Le is a little anxious, the only connection between her and Jun Zhi is the walkie-talkie.The more anxious she was, the more unsatisfactory she was. One lost her grip, and the walkie-talkie fell to the ground again. This time, the battery fell to nowhere.

    Sighing deeply, Bao Le became more aggrieved.

    "I want to go home."

    Jun Zhi didn't know if he heard it, but his body, which was standing upright, trembled slightly.

    Bao Le watched him move his lips, but she couldn't hear his voice.

    After Jun Zhi finished speaking, he walked quickly behind her. Bao Le was stunned for a moment, until he disappeared from her sight, then turned and walked two steps forward to follow his footsteps.But just a few meters after she walked, a flash of light suddenly flashed in her muddy mind, and she repeatedly thought about the last sentence Jun Zhi said. Although she couldn't speak lips, for a moment, she seemed to understand what he saidWhat is it.

    Bao Le nodded, thinking that was what she thought.

    The little girl turned around and started running in the opposite direction to Jun Zhi.
